Chapter 142: The Runaway Detective

As early as when everyone broke down and shouted, Sherlock Klein was alert, and the moment the detective drew his gun, he reacted from the "clown" instinct, making him bend his head down, dodging the muzzle of another detective's gun pointed at him with a roll, and came to the back of the couch.

Of course, the couch certainly couldn't stop the bullets, but the detective with bloodshot eyes and a hideous face froze at the moment when he lost his target, and this moment of distraction prevented him from dodging Klein's hammer hand that sprang out next to him.

The locked trigger was difficult to pull, and Crane easily dropped the mad detective's gun.

Angel taught him this trick at the shooting range in the city of Tingen.

But it wasn't enough to contain this person, there were still five or six detectives on the field who each drew their guns and pointed at the others, and unless he revealed himself to be extraordinary, it was impossible to deal with so many people at the same time......

"Stop!"

A loud roar was heard, and it was the only female detective present, Kaslana.

Her roar was so majestic that everyone, including Crane, wanted to obey it from the bottom of their hearts, and the detectives, who were clearly in a state of extreme panic, had doubts in their eyes, and the hands that raised their guns had lost their strength and were about to let go.

"Everyone, stop!"

Issinger looked around the living room and spoke to stop the crowd as well, his voice was low, but the effect was similar to that of Kaslana, with an inexplicable deterrence.

……

"Sherlock, what are your thoughts on what to do next?"

Isenger Stanton's deep but kind voice pulled Klein back from the "group breakdown" that had just occurred.

"Sorry, I didn't hear clearly, just now I was wondering if Stuart and they made it safely to the police station and see their family."

Crane bowed slightly in apology and replied.

"It will, and you should know that they are not protected by the police, but by the 'heart of the machine'."

"I thought you wouldn't be so straightforward?"

With a chuckle, Crane replied, looking at the rest of the living room, Kaslana had a faint look of surprise on her face, but it wasn't obvious, her red-haired female assistant was helping Isinger's assistant clean up the tables and chairs that had fallen to the floor, as if she hadn't heard the strange conversations.

It seems that those who remain are either extraordinary or have some knowledge of supernatural power......

He knew it in his heart, and no longer tried to hide his identity as an extraordinary, but said with a smile indifferently:

"So was the riot just now expected by you?"

"I had a hunch that the 'Apostle of Desire' was waiting for us to gather together in order to facilitate the resolution of most of the targets at once, but I didn't expect that he didn't even need to take action himself, so he almost caused everyone to kill each other and almost cause a bloody crime."

Isinger said with a wry smile, looking at the messy living room, as if recalling the scene just now.

"If it weren't for Kaslana's ability, and the fact that I simulated and strengthened this ability in time, the 'Fear Seed' that was detonated just now would have caused us to lose our staff."

"Seeds of Fear? Is it some extraordinary ability? ”

Kaslana, with a stern face, asked rhetorically, after using her abilities to deter panicked detectives, she knew that she could not hide her identity, so that she no longer pretended to be an ordinary person who did not understand the occult.

"Yes, this is the power of the man behind the scenes, the 'Apostle of Desire', who must have planted the seeds of fear in the hearts of the people before they gathered here, at the time when the people received the threatening letter and the panic in their hearts was at their highest...... It seems that from the moment everyone received the threatening letter, everything was in this man's plan. ”

"That's why he wrote the threatening letter in blood, and instead of mailing it, he delivered it in person, creating the greatest panic?"

Crane looked thoughtfully at the other two Extraordinary.

Kaslana can stop the chaos with her roars, she may be the extraordinaire of the "arbiter" approach, and Issinger says that she can simulate the other person's ability, is it a sequence that she doesn't know about, or is it the role of a magical object?

It seems that the ability of the Apostle of Desire to plant the seeds of fear remotely can only be used by ordinary people, not extraordinary beings like us? But there are also two ordinary people's assistants here, and are there similar means in them that have not been stimulated?

Fortunately, there were no casualties in the chaos just now, and the official extraordinaries arrived in time to calm everyone down and take them to a more guarded place for protection.

The people who were not willing to accept the protection of the police before had no objection this time, everyone almost collapsed in fear, not to mention being guarded and protected, even if they were imprisoned in the underground of the church, as long as they could save their lives, I am afraid that these ordinary people would nod their heads and agree......

But why leave a few of us behind?

"But I have a question, why did they keep us instead of taking everyone with them to be protected?"

Kaslana asked Klein's question, and she rose from her chair and paced around the almost cleaned up living room, revealing a hint of unease.

"Don't you think that the current scene is exactly what the 'Apostle of Desire' wants to see? The hidden official Extraordinaire escorted most of the ordinary people away, leaving only us with the ability to protect ourselves, what would you do if you were him? ”

Isinger sat back on the couch, picked up the pipe next to him, and beckoned his assistant to come and light it, but instead of leaning to his mouth to smoke, he held it with one hand, letting the smoke of the tobacco slowly rise and linger around him.

In the smoke, his words seemed far away:

"The 'Mechanical Hearts' are not stupid, they all left on the surface, escorting Stuart and them away, but there must be other members left nearby, continuing to squat, waiting for the 'Apostle of Desire' to appear."

"So, we're still bait, but it's just a bait with some self-preservation ability?"

Kaslana's tone was bitter, she was such a self-esteemed detective of the Extraordinary, but now she had become the bait of the official Extraordinary's pursuit of the "Apostle of Desire", which made her a little unwilling and a little angry.

"You don't have to worry too much, this is something that has been said for a long time, and they have handed me a seal, well, it is a magical item, which can sound around me at the same time, with a range of five kilometers, as long as the Apostle of Desire appears, we hold on for a minute, or even thirty seconds, and a large number of official extraordinary people will arrive and bring him to justice.

"The biggest problem, on the contrary, is that this guy will not show up at all, not only on November 30, but even in December, which will make the 'mechanical heart' stop focusing on this matter, and inevitably let down its vigilance and reduce the intensity of surveillance, and then our lives will be in real danger......"

Isenger looked at the smoke and whispered.

That's right...... This is also the opinion of Angel when I discussed it, rather than waiting for the attack to come at an unknown time, it is better to take the initiative to reveal the flaws and let the Apostle of Desire appear, even if he has Sequence 5, it is nothing in the eyes of the official extraordinary.

And Mr. Issinger is so confident that he is probably also an extraordinary person with a high sequence, or has many magical items in his pocket, and can protect himself and hurt the enemy......

Klein pondered, looked at the well-known private detective, and was about to open his mouth to continue asking, when suddenly a spiritual danger alert came to his mind, and at the same time, the clown's intuition also made him seem to have eyes behind him and see the situation behind him.

Kaslana, who paced behind him, had her eyes turned red at some point, her cheeks drooping muscles tense, her face was hideous, and her right hand quickly pulled out the pistol at her waist and aimed it at Crane's back.

"Bang-"

The gunshot rang out, and Crane had already followed his instincts and lunged forward, rolling around to avoid the bullets that were fired at him.

A strong wind blew beside him, and he rolled and stood still, looking in the direction the wind was blowing.

Kaslana had no intention of using a pistol to take out the extraordinaire on the field, she threw away the revolver and clasped her hands into fists at Issinger Stanton, who was sitting on the couch with a pipe, who threw the pipe away and reached into her coat pocket, as if ready to pull out some magical object to deal with it.

Unfortunately, the "Arbiter" has excellent fighting ability, and he didn't even have time to show a surprised expression on his face before he was kicked in the neck by the female detective.

"Click-"

Far away, Klein heard the crunch of a broken bone, and Isinger, who was full of confidence just now, had broken his neck bone and flew out of the couch at a strange angle twisted his head and neck on the carpet by the fireplace.
