Chapter 66: Joy and Sorrow

In the deep and dark underground building, Crane carried a lantern and walked around the hall, carefully checking whether there was another entrance, of course, he did not dare to enter the passage leading to the innermost room, and the regrouped snakes were once again blown away by the cold wind.

After receiving an affirmative answer, he took the initiative to retreat to the gate, and watched with the three living corpses as the bodyguard Miss Sharon planted explosives in different locations.

"Very professional look. Klein sighed under his breath.

The three living corpses undoubtedly did not respond to him.

However, there is also a reason for this, he has always shielded himself from the negative effects of the Azik Bronze Whistle with his spirituality, otherwise, he will be subjected to an unusually enthusiastic "echo".

He hadn't planned to bring this ancient and delicate bronze whistle with him, but he had to sacrifice some of his spirituality to beware of evil spirits in the dark.

"Miss Bodyguard, no, Miss Sharon said she's an expert in explosives, and she's not really bragging......"

"She's in the trade, or is there a sequence in her Extraordinary Pathways that makes her good at something similar?, based on what I've seen in the Night Watch Squad, it's roughly 'Criminal', 'Prisoner', 'Warrior', and 'Hunter' in Sequence 9, 'Sheriff' in Sequence 8, 'Master of Weapons' and 'Keeper of Knowledge' in Sequence 7, the latter has a nickname called 'Detective', and belongs to the Church of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom...... I don't know anything else......"

"I don't know which way Miss Sharon will go, it doesn't look like it, she also showed the ability to command living corpses this time......"

In Crane's rambling associates, Sharon finishes the arrangement and ignites the fuse with his hand.

Hey, hey, hey, why don't you warn him!Crane came back to his senses, startled, and hurriedly exited the hall and entered the outer hallway.

And the three living corpses followed him unhurriedly.

"It's safe here. Sharon suddenly appeared next to him.

Crane breathed a sigh of relief and asked instead, "Will there be dust shaken down here?"

"Yes. Sharon replied in the affirmative with one word.

"That's good. As he spoke, Crane took another step back.

Hiss, the sound of the fuse burning reached his ears, making him slightly irritated.

This emotion is not because he is afraid of the next explosion, but because there is a boot that never hits the ground.

β€œ1。 Sharon spoke suddenly.

"Huh?" Klein didn't understand what the other man meant.

Thundered!

The earth trembled violently, smoke and dust fell from above, and Crane's ears were buzzing, and for a moment he could not hear anything else.

If it weren't for the fact that he was a "clown", he would have lost his balance and fell to the ground.

Diverting his attention and not being prepared, he coughed and saw boulders and dirt falling rapidly in front of him, blocking the entrance in an instant.

In the remnants of the tremors, Crane gripped the bronze whistle given to him by Mr. Azik and watched its reaction.

Although he had already divined in advance and had obtained no dangerous results from this trip, after all, the humanoid statues of the six orthodox gods were involved, and he did not dare to fully believe even the revelations obtained above the gray mist, and the interpretation itself could be wrong, so he cautiously used the Azic bronze whistle to determine whether the evil spirits had escaped from the predicament.

The surface of the copper whistle was cold and soft, and there had been no abnormal changes, Crane was completely relieved, looked at the living corpses next to him, and confirmed one thing from their eyes, that is, he was currently very disgraced.

That's good, and it's very much in line with what I'm going to explain to Mr. Miller Carter later...... I didn't waste my intention to change my clothes...... He walked to the entrance and made sure it was completely blocked.

Without making a big splash, it is true that in the future only the "apprentice" path and the extraordinary, like Miss Sharon, will be able to enter, and she excludes many potential competitors, no wonder it is free...... Crane stared at the stones and dirt and sighed to himself.

Of course, I can too, I have a spirit-like state!" he added silently in his heart with a smile, but he remained silent on the surface.

"Call it a day. Crane snapped his fingers in a flashy manner, leading the three living corpses back to the basement of the house in a hurry, while Sharon had disappeared at some point.

In the spacious basement, Miller Carter was pacing back and forth nervously and worriedly, looking out at the secret door from time to time.

After seeing Detective Moriarty and his assistants come out in full numbers, he suddenly let out a long breath and asked urgently:

"What's going on inside?"

Klein deliberately gasped:

"That underground building is too old, too old, too long to repair, we were originally driving snakes, but the action was a little bigger, and it caused a violent collapse, the whole collapse, but fortunately we were close to the door and escaped in time. ”

"The storm is up! That building is so dangerous?" Miller Carter clenched his fist to his left chest.

"Yes, there will always be only a few well-preserved ancient buildings, and the rest have collapsed in the long river of history. Klein responded, "I'll take you in and have a look, and make sure what's going on." ”

"Is there still a collapse?" asked Miller, cautiously.

"No, it's sturdy over here. Crane deliberately patted the dust off his body, coughed twice, and then led his employer in a circle, stopping at the completely blocked entrance, and the walls near the hall were also crumbling, and the back was covered with stone and dirt.

"You can use this part. He gestured to the hallway area.

Miller was silent for a few seconds and sighed:

"It's a good thing I didn't rush in and let people explore, but found you, a professional, otherwise I would have been saddled with several lives. ”

"Okay, that's the end of this commission, I'll give you the rest. ”

As he spoke, Miller Carter took out his wallet, counted it, and was somewhat embarrassed to find that there were only thirty pounds in cash.

"It's good that I have other money, otherwise I'd have to go to the bank. Miller muttered, looked up at Klein and said, "Do you mind taking gold coins?"

"No, I don't mind any form of money. Crane smiled.

The gold pound of the Kingdom of Rune, in addition to being a large banknote, can also be a gold coin, which is also a guarantee of the face value of the banknote.

However, in the more than 100 years since Russell the Great, the people of the Northern Continent have become more and more accustomed to paper money, and some parliamentarians even want copper pennies to have corresponding banknotes.

The real gold pound is rarely in circulation, and only some old-fashioned gentlemen will attach a fixed box to the other end of their pocket watch bracelet, which will put some gold coins in case of accidents.

This is both a peace of mind and a habit.

Miller nodded, and pulled out a glittering gold box from one of his pockets along the gold bracelet on his clothes.

He opened the box, took out five gold coins, and handed them to Mr. Detective in front of him.

Crane didn't shy away from anything, and after counting it, he suddenly popped up a gold coin and caught it with his palms in a dashing manner.

"Thank you for your generosity. He glanced at the upside figure, smiled heartily, and then put his hand to his chest and bowed to Miller Carter.

Well, if it's another detective, even if the entrance and passage are blown up at this time, after I go back, I will definitely have nightmares, there is a strange noise in the house, my spirit becomes weak, and I feel that someone is staring at me at any time, etc., this is the infection of the evil spirit's breath, and it will take a long time to disappear, but we are different, Miss Sharon herself is like a female ghost, and it will be completely fine if I go to the gray fog, as for the three living corpses, I am not even afraid of death, what are I afraid of? Crane complained in a good mood, said goodbye to Miller Carter, and turned to leave the house.

When they came to the street, the three living corpses walked in the other direction without greeting him.

Miss Sharon is gone...... Really confiscate the employment fee for the living corpse...... Crane smiled and raised his arm, waving at the backs of the three living corpses.

Afterwards, he went home and changed into his normal clothes and went to the Kragg Club to practice his gun.

After having dinner as a reward for the successful conclusion of the mission, Klein took a horse-drawn carriage and returned to Minsk Street.

The gloomy and dim environment was lit by a gas street lamp, and he strolled leisurely down the street with a cane.

Suddenly, he had a premonition that it wasn't good, but it wasn't bad.

Klein looked up and saw two police officers approaching with a police dog, seemingly interrogating them along the way.

Investigation? Investigation with police dogs, The impact of the serial murder case, The smell of cloves and gooseberries was left at the scene, so police dogs were added? Klein couldn't help but scold.

The history of police dogs can be traced back to the Russell period, but their numbers have been small.

Considering that he had a lot of items on him, and considering the hunch just now, Klein planned to take a detour and walk from the other side.

But just then, the two officers saw him and motioned for him to stop.

The corners of Klein's mouth twitched, and he waited in place with a smile on his face.

"Routine investigations. Upon approaching, one of the officers showed his ID.

"Okay......" Before Crane could finish speaking, the police dog suddenly roared and barked at him.

This, this is the smell of gunpowder on my body? The smell of gunpowder left over from the afternoon gun practice? Klein instantly realized, glanced at the guarded expressions of the two police officers, counted in his heart, and said with a smile:

"Well, I picked up a revolver on the road, along with a pouch under my armpit and bullets, and I was about to give it to you. ”

He slowly took out his revolver, raised his hands to his shoulders, and added with a serious smile:

"Officer, I'm really not illegally carrying a gun. ”

A police officer was on high alert, and a police officer took the pistol and said solemnly:

"You have to come back to the police station with us. ”

"Okay. Crane smiled back, "But I have one request, please inform my lawyer, Mr. JΓΌrgen Cooper, that I may only be searched in his sight." ”
