Volume 1: The Gate of Flesh and Blood Chapter 33 Changes!
That guy?!
Goethe's eyes narrowed immediately.
There are many people who can be called "that guy" by Swart, but there is only one "that guy" that the two of them can call him - the bastard who got there first at No. 32 Little Durian Street.
Goethe never minded fighting.
Goethe was even more familiar with death.
He has long been accustomed to the life in his hometown.
but!
Whether it is fighting or death, there is one thing that Goethe never allows anyone to touch.
That is: the spoils!
Because, that was what he gained after experiencing struggles and facing the danger of death!
It's what he deserves!
When I was in my hometown, some people had some bad intentions.
But he dealt with them all.
Now there is such a person again.
Goethe did not mind using the same method to inform those around him what would happen if they touched his spoils.
As for the spoils, they were not obtained by one’s own hands, but given by Morey?
Since Morey
So, in the final analysis, that bastard stole his things!
"Where?"
Goethe asked in a deep voice.
"'Old Bill's Watch Shop'. An hour ago, that guy went to Old Bill's to sell stolen goods, and then he was caught by Old Bill's guys. Last night, I told them the channels I knew, and Old Bill was one of them. That guy completely walked into the trap himself!"
Swart said excitedly.
At the end, he waved his fist.
Then, I looked at Goethe eagerly, as if asking him to praise me.
But Goethe frowned.
Something is not right.
He personally inspected the scene last night.
The other party was quite cautious, even so cautious that it overcame greed.
Would such a cautious person just find a place to ship goods without knowing the situation?
Moreover, I just happened to find a channel to contact Swart?
Goethe smelled a conspiracy.
"Old Bill told you personally?"
Goethe asked.
"Yes, one of Old Bill's buddies sent the news."
"Why, is there a problem?"
Swart said it truthfully, and then asked softly.
Swart, who is able to become the sheriff, may not be very capable, but he is very sensitive to danger. Especially after cooperating with Goethe, this sheriff would rather keep one eye open even when sleeping.
"What kind of man is Old Bill?"
Goethe did not answer, but asked instead.
"What kind of person could it be?"
"People like them are naturally money-oriented."
"However, most of the time he is quite obedient and has been working with me for a long time. He should, probably... not betray me, right?"
Swart laughed dryly, with a look of insecurity on his face.
"Go back."
Goethe said after hesitating for two seconds.
"Not going to Old Bill's?"
Swart asked.
"go."
"But before I go again, I need to find an 'insurance'."
Goethe said so.
…
The night is getting deeper and deeper.
Old Bill's Watch Shop had closed two hours ago.
However, there are still lights in the store.
The lights in the two-story building opposite had already been turned off.
In the dark room, Goethe sat on the sofa with his eyes closed and dozed off, while Swart stood behind the curtains, opened a crack, and looked at the watch shop across the street.
"I didn't notice anything unusual, except that ten minutes ago, Old Bill and his apprentice walked around the store and took some food."
Swart reported what he saw.
"Um."
Goethe responded quietly, without even opening his eyes.
"Goethe, aren't you worried at all?"
"Aren't you afraid that your guess might be wrong ?"
Swart asked curiously.
Although it was not the first time that he had worked with Goethe, this time, Goethe made Swart feel more relaxed.
"If we guess wrong, it will be a good thing for us now."
"Even..."
"I couldn't ask for more."
Goethe's words made Swart scratch his head.
It was obvious that the sheriff did not understand what Goethe meant.
And Goethe did not explain much.
Because, although Goethe now appears relaxed on the outside, he is actually extremely alert on the inside.
Just as he said, he hoped that he was wrong.
If his guess was correct, it would only prove one thing: the 'Mist Killer' or the 'Church of Flesh and Blood' was more powerful in Lust than he imagined!
That’s right!
It's the 'Killer in the Mist' or the 'Church of the Flesh and Blood'!
After discovering the abnormality of "that guy", Goethe immediately thought of his only two enemies in Luster.
The sudden appearance of 'that guy' who should have been cautious, other than luring him 'into the trap', Goethe could not think of any other possibility.
Before last night, 'that guy' had nothing to do with 'The Killer in the Mist' or 'The Church of Flesh and Blood', otherwise his behavior would be totally inexplicable.
But after less than a day, 'that guy' completely obeyed the 'Mist Killer' and the 'Church of Flesh and Blood' and was willing to become a bait.
Whether it is coercion or inducement.
What was hidden in it really frightened Goethe.
You know, although the population of Lust is not as large as the capital Bodø, it still has 300,000!
It is not easy to find someone in a city with a population of 300,000.
But 'The Killer in the Mist' and 'The Church of Flesh and Blood' did it.
Moreover, it was accomplished in less than a day.
If it is the 'Church of Flesh and Blood', it would be even more surprising.
Because it has only been one day since he became enemies with the 'Church of Flesh and Blood'.
What does this represent?
Goethe knew it well.
The 'Killer in the Fog' and the 'Church of Flesh and Blood' must have a detailed intelligence network in Lust.
This intelligence network involves almost every aspect of Luster.
But before, they didn't have it.
Because, if he had, he would not have been able to launch the previous "counterattack" and would have died without a burial place long ago.
Therefore, the other party obtained such an intelligence network in a short period of time.
Almost subconsciously, Goethe thought of the mysterious owner of the Pine Nut Hotel.
The other party was consistent with his guess.
Moreover, he was also attacked at the Pine Nut Hotel last night.
Twice again!
only……
Why did the other party do this?
He has no grudge against the other party.
As for luring the attacker over?
That is not a bad thing for the other party. On the contrary, it is a good thing as long as it is used well.
Moreover, he has a close relationship with the official person in charge of supernormal affairs.
In fact, he already has an official identity.
Under this premise, it is impossible for the other party to cooperate with the 'Mist Killer' and the 'Church of Flesh and Blood'.
Unless the 'Mist Killer' and the 'Church of Flesh and Blood' offer the other party something that they cannot refuse at all - something that they must get even if they have to throw away everything they have now.
"What would that be?"
Goethe was very puzzled.
While Goethe was still thinking hard, Swart shouted softly, "Old Bill is out! There's someone else! There's someone behind him! Someone's holding Old Bill hostage!"
Goethe walked quickly to the window and lifted a corner of the curtain.
Immediately, he saw a gray-haired man wearing black overalls and a brown linen shirt walking out of the door of Old Bill's Watch Shop across the street.
According to Swart's description, this is Old Bill.
Behind the other person, there stood a man wearing a cloak whose face could not be seen clearly.
This man completely hid himself behind Old Bill, and if Goethe and Swart had not been standing on the second floor, it would have been difficult for them to even notice each other.
However, once it was discovered, everything became easy.
"shot."
Goethe said so.
Swart immediately lit the candles in the room.
Even through the curtains, this light can still be seen, especially through the gaps in the curtains, where it is even brighter.
The next moment, the patrolmen who were waiting nearby stretched out their guns and pulled the trigger directly -
Bang bang bang.
Amid a series of gunshots, the man whose face could not be seen, including Old Bill in front of the other party, all fell to the ground.
