Chapter 208: Gray Hair, New Xenomorph
After solving the doubts in his heart, Wellington had no desire to stay here, after all, the person opposite was a demigod, although Wellington was not an extraordinary person, but he still knew the power and horror of an extraordinary person of this level.
After a respectful farewell to Abraham, Wellington left the Church of the Gods of Machines and Intelligence.
At this time, on a slightly deserted street, Elton and Jeffrey were running at a high speed.
In front of them, a man in a black coat with the collar raised high and most of his face was running at a rapid pace, and Elton, who was running in front, hurriedly pulled out a revolver under his armpit and shot the man in the thigh.
Poof! Elton's first shot hit the gray floor.
I saw that the man was running significantly faster than Elton and Jeffrey behind him, and he was also extremely agile, and Elton missed several bullets along the way.
By the time they ran all the way to an abandoned factory, the man who had gone there had disappeared, and after looking around and finding no trace of each other, Elton and Jeffrey had no choice but to put away their guns and return to the police station.
After dinner, Chris and the others sat on the couch and listened to Elton's detailed description of the case they encountered today.
"As we passed through a dimly lit alley, we heard a scream inside, and when we hurried over, we saw a man in a black coat with an unclear face sticking out his sharp fangs and trying to bite a surprised young lady. ”
"Could he be a vampire?" asked Chris hurriedly, after all, he was very impressed by the Sequence 7 vampire he had encountered at 35 Etienne Street.
Elton shook his head, glanced at Jeffrey, and seeing that he showed no sign of answering, he continued:
"At first, we thought so, but when we tracked him down, we found out that he hadn't transformed into a vampire to escape. Unfortunately, he was too fast, and he managed to escape, but we found this at the scene. ”
As he spoke, Elton took out something wrapped in a handkerchief from his pocket, and saw several dark gray ...... in it Hair?
"What kind of animal hair is this?" asked Bonnie, looking at the hair in front of her, her big blue eyes flashing with curiosity.
"This length and texture should be dog hair or wolf hair. Bert guessed after taking a sip of black tea.
"Uh-huh. Elton nodded hurriedly, "That's what the boss said, we can send someone to the church tomorrow to ask the clergy to compare them with the transcendent beings in many materials, one by one, and of course it may be an extraordinary person in a different way." ”
Humanoids or people who can transform into animals?Chris thought to himself, the only xenomorphs he knew of so far seemed to be vampires, and nothing else.
It seems that I should also increase my knowledge of the occult, but most of the church's materials are not open to the public, and even the "punishers" need to read the corresponding books every time they apply.
It should be to prevent the leakage of occult knowledge, Chris guessed, after all, there are churches in every city, and it is inevitable that some secret organizations may be mixed in, and occult knowledge and potion recipes are the same as invisible wealth for the extraordinary, and they will definitely not be easily obtained and known.
James came in through the door, and when he heard his teammates discussing the matter, he said:
"Since you all know about this, then tomorrow most of our members will go together to arrest him, and we can't let him come out again to commit crimes and harm the people. ”
"But we just received a major commission today. Wayne hurriedly said, and after seeing James's questioning expression, he quickly added, "The honorarium is a thousand pounds!"
"Wayne, you're kidding!" exclaimed Elton, "what is the reward of a thousand pounds? Could it be that the children of some noble family have been kidnapped? ”
Wayne raised her eyebrows, glanced at Elton and said:
"It's looking for someone, the other party should be his illegitimate son, and he seems to be the great nobleman of Atlantis, and today he gave a deposit of ten pounds, looking at the thick wad of money in his wallet, there are at least a few hundred pounds in cash, so there should be no fake.
"But his only request was to follow us to find someone, so I was worried that if he delayed, he might be able to entrust another firm. ”
"This ......" James also hesitated, he was not a pedantic captain, as a senior squad leader, he naturally knew the importance of this money to the extraordinary team, if it was replaced by a magical item with acceptable power, it might be a life-saving talisman for his teammates at a critical moment.
After thinking for a few seconds, James looked at the crowd and said:
"Well, tomorrow the three of you will complete this commission, and Elton, Jeffrey, and Bert will go after the man and find out the details of the other party first. Bonnie is not going to the church hospital for a probationary stay, you stay in the police office in case of an emergency. Tomorrow morning I will take these hairs and go to church to find the corresponding information. ”
Seeing that everyone nodded in agreement, James scratched his head and said:
"Okay, then so be it, if we find out the clues tomorrow, we will act together the day after tomorrow. ”
So everyone agreed, and they went back to their bedrooms, and Chris went to the bathroom to wash up, then changed into clean pajamas and sat down in front of the desk.
There is still a little bit of potion in his body that is about to be completely digested, and the potion of Sequence 7 "Mechanic Expert" is also guaranteed, so he will wait for the rest to be completed.
And once he becomes an Extraordinary Player in Sequence 7, I'm afraid that their squad will be ranked up by a large margin.
In that case, the corresponding public fund will also increase significantly, and Sister Wayne will not have to work so hard to take on entrusted tasks every week.
As for his imminent promotion to Sequence 7, everyone else didn't know.
If he still lived with Bert and Bonnie as before, he might still be able to communicate at any time, but now that he has joined the "Punisher" team, everyone has their own affairs, and with other colleagues, it is not so convenient to communicate.
Even James and Bert, who went to church together, only knew that he already had the Sequence 7 potion promised by the church. And this news, no one else knows.
James did not publicize this matter because he considered the feelings of Elton, who was also an "Arcanist". As for Bert, he doesn't care much about anyone other than Chris and Bonnie.
Although they are colleagues and partners who share life and death together, they are still close to each other.
In addition to being a close-knit group with Bert and Bonnie, Chris is now best working with Paul and Jeffrey, who often work together in a group.
Bonnie has a good relationship with everyone, and recently became good friends with Wayne, but the only people she really cares about are her brother Bert and the person she likes.
As for Wayne, the relationship is James and Paul, and now there is a little best friend Bonnie, and the most unaccustomed is Elton, who often pinchs each other.
Elton is arguably the ultimate fan of Captain James, and is very obedient to his words, but not so good for anyone else. For the new three, he is a big brother posture, he doesn't communicate much with Jeffrey and Paul, and he is also in a state of mutual hatred for Wayne.
Jeffrey and Paul are more Buddhist, but Paul seems to listen to Wayne and has the best relationship with Jeffrey and Chris.
And Jeffrey is a popular insulator, it is estimated that he doesn't value these either, but he is still closer to Paul and Chris, among which Paul is the closest and most caring, and Chris is actually more of a surveillance.
As for the captain, in addition to taking care of and being responsible for each team member, the most trusted ones are Elton, Wayne and Jeffrey, and the most admired is Bert.
Although he takes care of Chris and Bonnie, he is not as kind as Paul.
This is the problem of the eye, and everyone can't force it.
Regarding Mr. Vic Ramirez who met today, Chris didn't know if the person the other party was looking for was him, so he was actually a little hesitant now.
If the person he was looking for was himself, then the answer he had been wondering for so many years seemed to have a clue. It's just that I don't know what his relationship is with the person he's looking for, and it would be a bit funny if it was an enemy.
However, this is better than not having any clues, otherwise it will be difficult to find another "gambler" in the vast sea of people alone.
It doesn't matter if the person he is looking for is not himself, once he completes this commissioned task, isn't there a huge commission fee of 1,000 pounds, and it is estimated that the captain will go to the church to exchange for a magical item.
While Chris was thinking about it in his bedroom, Vic was sitting on the sofa and drinking red wine in the "Sika Inn" in the South End.
If it weren't for him, Vayn and the others would come to him tomorrow, after all, a thousand pounds is a lot of money for the extraordinary.
He must find out about the resurrection of this nephew in the next few days, and all the other things.
As for the murderer of his sister, the "Gate of Hades", because this secret organization is widely implicated, and its power in Atlantus is not small, their family alone cannot hurt its foundation at all, so this account can only be written down temporarily.
After taking the last sip of red wine, Vic put down his glass, and said with a smile on his lips:
"That kid looks dumbfounded, and his appearance is average, and he doesn't seem to have the extraordinary characteristics of a 'gambler' in his body, but when I saw him for the first time, the spirit in his body jumped greatly, which was really interesting. ”
