"As a result, I have to continue to use you......"

Wearing the "Ring of Madness" on her hand, Angel couldn't help but sigh as she watched herself in the mirror quickly transform into a featureless black-haired round-faced woman.

Mr. A's assembly was banned by the official Extraordinary, and no one at the Tarot Society was interested in this magical item, so she couldn't exchange the ring for gold pounds for the time being, and she was going to capture Barron in the East End tonight, which was obviously more suitable for the "Ring of Madness" that would make strangers ignore her appearance than the "Faceling" trait of simply changing faces.

By this time, it was close to ten o'clock in the evening, Angel took all the battle items and went to the "Oak Bar" in the East End, where he met Hugh Dilcha and Sherman, who were also heavily armed and wearing hooded cloaks, the latter participating in such a group action for the first time, with a mixture of nervousness and excitement on his face, while the diminutive bounty hunter looked indifferent and regarded tonight as a light-hearted mission.

The three hooded weirdos sit in the corner of the bar, attracting the attention of many people, but fortunately, Hugh's body shape is very recognizable, and she is "famous" in various bars in the East End, so there are no drunks who are not open-eyed to find fault.

"Let's go, it's almost time, the nearby residents have already gone to sleep, and the patrol police in the eastern district are not interested in coming out for a walk until the second half of the night, we have enough time."

After chatting about the details of the operation, Hugh glanced at the wall clock on the wall and whispered.

The trio left through the side door of the tavern and walked for about twenty minutes along the street where many homeless people wandered around and rummaged for garbage, and were led by a bounty hunter who knew the terrain to a small three-story building that didn't look like a small east district.

Compared with the dilapidated apartments on both sides, the exterior walls of this small building are still painted, and the windows are not leaking, and at this time, a faint light shines through a window on the second floor, which is extremely dazzling among the surrounding residents who are reluctant to turn on the gas lights.

"He hasn't slept yet, do you have to wait a little longer, or just go in and deal with him?"

Hugh inquired about his temporary employer, Angel.

The latter pondered for a moment, untied the silver chain wrapped around his wrist, and made a simple divination with the citrine pendant, and after judging that this action was not very dangerous, he said:

"Since he's at home, let's do it directly."

She reached out and tapped on her chest, and used her invisibility ability in front of the two of them, and her figure disappeared as if it had been erased by an eraser, and then a muffled voice came from the air:

"Miss Hugh, you go and knock directly on the door to attract him out, although Barron will be vigilant, he will definitely not flee directly, while I will enter from the side, and the two of them will work together to make sure nothing goes wrong. After succeeding, he was taken to the attic for interrogation. Sherman, keep an eye on the alley across the door, and if anyone else comes by, find a way to make a noise to alert us. ”

Although judging by the bounty on Barron's head, the other party is at most a low-order extraordinary, but just in case, Angel decided to work together to avoid all accidents.

Hugh stared blankly in the direction in which Angel had disappeared, and only nodded after a few seconds, tightened his hood, and walked directly to the door of Barron's residence, where Sherman also burrowed into the alleyway, his eyes fixed on Hugh as he was about to knock.

Watching the movements of the two, Angel nodded in satisfaction, walked around to the side of the building, and when Hugh knocked on the door, he created a thin layer of ice to pick open the bolt on the inside of the window, and opened the window and climbed in.

Behind the window is the living room on the first floor, simply furnished, and Angel stands by the door that leads to the hallway, waiting quietly.

"Who is it?"

A muttering came, with a distinct Beckland accent, but not for Angel, but for Hugh, who was knocking on the door.

The latter did not answer, but only accelerated the frequency of knocking.

The sound of soft footsteps in the hallway came from Barron, who was clearly alert, and soon Angel saw a middle-aged man walking towards the stairs, holding a revolver in one hand and a short wooden stick in the other, slowly walking towards the door.

In her dark vision, the man's complexion was brown and red, and his facial features were featureless, which was more consistent with the features described by the hanged man.

After identifying the target, Angel gently waved his arm in a stealth state, quickly released invisible spider silk, and ordered them to be laid out in the section of the corridor near the door, and when Barron, whose eyes were fixed on the door and ignored the movement under his feet, stepped in, he suddenly tightened.

The tall man's limbs were suddenly locked together, and there were strangulation marks on his clothes and skin, and the man lost his balance and fell straight on the carpet at the door.

Hearing the movement behind the door, Hugh Dilcha outside slammed the lock of the door, directly slammed open the wooden door that was not solid, and quickly judged the form by the moonlight at the door, and kicked Barron in front of him on the back of the neck, causing him to faint as he was about to shout.

"Miss Watson?" Seeing that it was only herself and Barron in the hallway, she asked tentatively, "Did it go according to the original plan?" ”

"Yes."

Hugh relieved himself and lifted Barron, who was two heads taller than her and weighed almost twice as much, and walked towards the attic, where the superiority of the Extraordinary was unmistakable.

————

"Bang-"

After tying Barron to a wooden chair in the attic, Hugh unceremoniously kicked the other man's calf bone, where there are fewer muscles, and even the strongest person will be in pain if he is kicked, and sure enough, Barron immediately woke up after a muffled snort, looked around with a hint of panic in his eyes, and then immediately suppressed his emotions and looked coldly at the bounty hunter in front of him, who was only a little taller than him who was seated.

"Who is you......?"

Before he could finish speaking, he received the same kick in the other foot.

"This is your attic, even if the sound gets out, I can kill you before you run away, don't think about shouting or delaying time, Barron."

Hearing the other party's exact name, Barron's face was gloomy and he stopped talking.

"Very well, now I ask you, what are you coming to Bakerland for? And are there any accomplices? ”

A powerful pressure emanated from Hugh's body, causing the expression on Barron's face to change again and again, and his mouth opened and closed, but after a moment, he persevered, clenching his teeth and not speaking.

Among the teeth that showed out of the mouth, an inlaid gold tooth reflected a glimmer of light in the dim light of the attic.

"It seems that some special means will be needed to get you to open your heart......"

Seeing that the extraordinary ability did not work well, Hugh was not discouraged, but pulled out a short dagger from under his cloak, hesitated for two seconds, and pointed at Barron's left hand.

At this moment, Barron, who was gritting his teeth and resisting just now, suddenly showed an extremely panicked expression on his face, and his eyes widened, as if he had seen something terrifying that only he could see. From a distance of a meter, the sound of his heart beating suddenly faster could be heard, like a dull drum.

Hugh, frightened by the man's exaggerated performance, took two steps back, looked behind him, and found nothing else to cause panic, and then turned his gaze to Barron, who had collapsed in the wooden chair after that momentary panic, gasping for breath and his face covered in cold sweat, as if exhausted by the fear of those few seconds.

"Keep asking."

A beautiful female voice came from her side.

She then remembered that there was a third person in the attic, and it seemed that Barron's anomaly was caused by the power of this powerful and mysterious woman.

"Tell me, Barron, what is the purpose of your coming to Beckland, and what other accomplices do you have?"

Putting away the dagger, Hugh approached the exhausted Barron and continued to ask.

"I ...... I've come to pick up Capping's class, the idiot has been killed in his villa, and I'm in charge of taking over his mess and continuing to send the kidnapped pauper out of Beckland and around the country. ”

This time, the other party was extremely cooperative, and the expression that insisted on not explaining just now has disappeared without a trace.

"There were three other guys transporting them together, who didn't communicate with each other, and each was only responsible for their own line. The person we contacted was wearing a gold mask, and I didn't know who he was, and I didn't dare ask. ”

Golden Mask ......

Hugh immediately thought of the person who sold her the formula for the "sheriff" at Mr. A's rally, and based on his own and Forth's speculation, the other party probably belonged to the army and was developing himself into a peripheral member.

But how could the military be involved in the human trafficking? Did they come out of the traitors, or did the other group have the same method of disguise and happen to use gold masks as well?

And Barron mentions Gapin, and sure enough, this guy behaves as rumoredly, a hateful human trafficker......

There were many thoughts in his head, but he didn't stop, and continued to ask according to the arrangement before the action:

"Where will those people be sold, and to whom?"

"I don't know," Barron shook his head slowly, and then shuddered in Hugh's outburst, "Really, we're only in charge of transporting people out of Beckland, and others take over, but I can see that most of them are mixed up at sea, most likely sailors, so I guess that these captured paupers will be transported overseas, such as the Rorsted Islands, or even the Southern Continent." However, there was a small number of special ones that were taken not far from Beckland......"

After being intimidated by an unknown force, this guy has become so talkative? After answering the question, he added his own guess......

Hugh was a little confused, and for the first time she felt that her "sheriff" power was not so useful.

But she still asked:

"Where near Beckland? Were they killed there? ”

Barron gritted his teeth again, with a pained expression on his face, as if the question was difficult to answer, and a few unformed words squeezed out between his lips:

"Beckland...... It's right in ......."

"Right here, and besides, you're the one who will be killed!"

An angry voice came from behind Hugh, and at the same time, the door was kicked open with a "bang".

She looked back suddenly, and a middle-aged man in a black trench coat, with slender cheeks and a grim complexion, walked into the attic, he opened the door with his right hand, pushed forward with the palm of his left hand, and said in Ancient Hermes:

"Confinement!"

The dark golden light bloomed, and the attic was instantly wrapped in an invisible wall, and no sound, no spirituality, could be heard.
