Ember Gun

  Chapter 234 Partner

  It was like a strange meeting, in the narrow back kitchen, in the pots and pans, two people and a mouse.

Camu was still mopping the floor, and the water washed it again and again, finally washing away the blood stains, just like the kind of thing often done in Xiacheng, he laboriously picked up the dead people and threw them into the Thames not far away. Here, it’s not clear where they will fall, anyway, they won’t be an eyesore here.

  From time to time, gunshots sounded, killing the guys who hadn't died, and then plunged into the river. Judging from Kamu's skillful movements, this kind of thing is no longer one time or two.

  In the back kitchen, Lorenzo looked at the excited Hercules, and after a short hesitation, he stretched out his hand and shook it with him.

This is a harmless guy, as he said, Hercules has to take a few breaths while running, but at the same time he is so dangerous, his weird calculations and control, he can deduce events. In the beginning and end, it was not an extraordinary force that was relied on, but only a strong enough memory and deductive ability.

  "Then how did the other bad rats do it, and how does your organization connect and save data?"

"It's very simple. When you train a mouse, different colors indicate different situations and signs. As for information and information, this kind of memory is not impossible to replicate. As long as there is a certain amount of training, ordinary people can become like me. Of course there is You may not be able to reach my level."

  He pointed to his head again, and said seriously.

  "Train yourself, build your own archives and memory palace in your mind, and put all the things you need into it."

  "Want to learn? Mr. Holmes, I can see your curiosity. With your wisdom, you will learn quickly."

  Lorenzo did not respond in a hurry, he just observed this somewhat excited man, and he began to find the incident interesting.

He has experienced too many extraordinary events, and even said that Lorenzo himself is the incarnation of the extraordinary, with secret blood flowing in his body. Therefore, when many things are beyond the logic of ordinary people, he will think of demons, or some more complicated ones. Things, but Lorenzo never thought that the final truth would be so simple.

  All this is just a person's deduction. From the huge information, he integrated a story after another, and finally discovered the loopholes between them.

  If Lorenzo hadn't seen those outrageous things, I'm afraid no one would believe Hercule's words. Everyone might think that his mental illness has relapsed again and send him to a nursing home.

   "You made me reacquaint the upper limit of mortals."

   "But the upper limit of mortals is always incalculable, isn't it? Just like this city." Hercule replied.

   "Too many people live in this city where steel and miracles coexist. The longer they live, the more they are in awe, but they never thought that every inch and every piece here was built by mortals."

  Lorenzo did not speak, but today’s conversation with Herculi has reminded him too much.

  "Then you did this, searched for ‘us’ for so long, and now you can be honest about everything, what do you want?"

   Lorenzo asked again.

   "Knowledge, curiosity, curiosity, too much, too much!" Hercule said.

"Under that morbid desire for control, the more I know, the more I am curious about the fog of the old Dunling, just like another invisible roommate lives in your room. You were afraid at first. Endless curiosity."

  He said to Lorenzo.

   "Who are you guys? What do you want to do? For what?"

   "But you haven't been in contact with us before, and now you suddenly jumped out, why?" Lorenzo did not answer those, and asked about other things.

With the style of cleaning agencies and the casualty rate of personnel, once they find someone like Hercule, they will either put him in the pump of perpetual motion to study his brain slices, or they will join the work and be on the job. Fight wit and courage against the monsters until you have exhausted yourselves.

  "Because I have never been sure what you are before?" Hercule said, "I don't know your position or your purpose. Maybe you killed me as soon as I appeared?"

"As for the emergence now, this is because we have the same interests. In some respects, we are the same. If we hadn't found this agreement, I might have been hiding from you, just like a mouse in the gutter, eager for light but Fear again."

Without waiting for Lorenzo to continue to ask anything, Hercule rummaged through the cupboard beside him. After a while, he took out a row of reagents. Looking at the familiar things, Lorenzo didn't know what to say for a while. rise.

  It seems that Hercule really has some mental problems. Such a dangerous thing is placed in the cupboard so generously.

   "You should be familiar with these things, right, hallucinogens."

  Herkeley placed a row of hallucinogens in front of Lorenzo's eyes, with different styles and different degrees of surface wear, but the common point is that they all have weird and restless power.

   "I discovered these special hallucinogens about a year ago. Unlike ordinary hallucinogens, there seems to be devil blood here. People who use these hallucinogens will become crazy and violent."

  Herkeri said while carefully watching Lorenzo's expression, any slight changes could not escape his eyes.

Admittedly, he and Lorenzo are really similar, but the difference is that Hercule does not have the power of Lorenzo. All he can rely on is his brain, so he is more cautious and vigilant than Lorenzo. , More sensitive and more cautious.

   "So many kinds?"

  Lorenzo never thought that there would be so many types of these hallucinogens, but Hercule denied it.

  "It's not a kind. They are all hallucinogens made by the same producer. He seems to be using people as experiments. These different packages are just different iterations."

  Herkeley pointed to the labels on these hallucinogens, which had different dates on them, which was the date when they were discovered.

   “It can be seen that the experiments of the producers are very successful, their progress is rapid, and iteratives are rapid until this latest edition.”

   points to the end, the brand new glass is filled with gorgeous liquid.

   "How did you discover this?"

  The more the conversation, the more surprises Hercule gave Lorenzo, this mortal body, deduced the secret of the cleansing organs.

"Bad rats, at first it was reported that hallucinogens make people crazy... This is very common. I have heard more outrageous in the mouths of bad rats. Someone used hallucinogens and took off his clothes under hallucinations. Escaped into the furnace."

  Herkeley laughed. Under such a huge amount of information, listening to some sand sculpture news is the source of happiness for Herkeley.

"I didn't care. After all, the data I wanted to count was too large. I would instinctively ignore some of them until there was a problem with this variable. More and more bad rats reported these things, and then I pretended to be a tramp and witnessed it with my own eyes. With this, I paid more attention to this weird thing."

"It is evolving very fast. In the last few generations, it has been able to turn people into monsters, bloodthirsty monsters, but every time it first appears, it will be killed and cleaned up by you, as if nothing happened. Same."

  Herkeley’s tone was weird.

   Lorenzo asked, "Do you suspect it on us?"

"Yes, from a certain official mysterious force, secretly using people from the Xiacheng District to conduct some kind of experiment. This is too in line with the conspiracy theory. For a while, I was full of justice, and I even prepared to collect enough evidence to bring the Xiacheng area with me. People rise up."

  Herkeley’s voice stopped suddenly, and after a while he continued to speak.

"But I later discovered that you were not accomplices, and you were also investigating these. Sabo's death is a proof. I discovered early on that he was related to the circulation of these hallucinogens, and the flames in the underground palace continued to skyward that day. Settled and surrounded."

   Hearing this, Lorenzo's heart fell cold. Hercule paid attention to these very early. It was terrifying early. The mortal body gave him an extremely excessive warning.

   "Today you used all of mine, it is the same, right?" Lorenzo asked, behind all coincidences there is Herculi, and he promoted this chain of events.

"I found out that they are going to ship the last batch of goods. This is my last chance to make a move. I took advantage of you. To be precise, this is a win-win situation. After all, you are also investigating the case, right? But ten hours ago, You are not yet trustworthy, Mr. Holmes."

  Herkeley continued, "I don't know your ability. You are alone, and there is still a risk."

  "So you called the Suyalan Hall?" Lorenzo asked.

He nodded, and then said, "Sergeant Donas has been eager to be promoted for a long time. He needs to solve a big case, but if I give him information directly, it may arouse his vigilance. At this time, I found a new person and she checked. The case is also very caring and full of motivation..."

   "Have you used her to manipulate all this?"

   "Yes, in order not to attract attention, I deliberately released the news that the bad mouse knew the intelligence"

   "She thought it was a clue she found, but she never thought that you released it on purpose."

"When you have enough manpower, you can easily deceive someone. I think you and the Mounted Police in Suyalan Hall can solve these things perfectly, but it seems that I still underestimate this hallucinogen. Evil."

  Lorenzo was silent for a long time, seeming to be thinking about something.

  Herkeley is too smart. If it weren't for him, Lorenzo even suspected that he was also affected by the monster, but the effect was positive. He was not crazy, but became more sensible.

  After a long pause, he asked again.

  "How much do you still know? Or if there is enough information, how far do you perform?"

"Um……"

  Herculi picked up Poirot in Lorenzo's arms, thought carefully, then laughed and replied.

   "In short, your ability to act, my deduction, we will be limited omniscience and omnipotence."

  Herkeley is caught in the carnival of finding the same kind. This is a very strange person. Although he is fighting against the darkness, he has no lofty ideals or a tragic past.

  He is just a person driven by primitive desire, excessive curiosity, and deformed desire to control, purely human.

  Like those navigators who are not afraid of death and raise their sails to face the torrential rain. What he desires is not wealth and honor. Hercules is just curious, curious about what is on the other side of the sea.

   "Then let's get started quickly, Mr. Holmes."

  Herkery happily kicked open the door of the back kitchen, but Lorenzo sat there and shook his head.

   "Not yet, Hercules, I have a lot to do."

  "For example, go back to report on the task?" Hercule was very aware of the behemoth behind Lorenzo. The conversation just now was not only about Lorenzo, but also about the organizations behind him.

   "Is that so..."

  "Will you mention me to your boss? How would you judge me? Trust is precious. I don't want to be arrested and put in a mental hospital right after you leave."

  Herkeley's tone hardened.

   "If you are afraid of this, you should not expose it."

   "But in order to satisfy my deformed curiosity, I am willing to take these risks."

  The two looked at each other briefly, then laughed, Lorenzo said slowly.

   "No, I won't tell anyone that I have seen you, but again, you moved me, Hercules, I really need someone like you."

  Herkeley's eyes were a little puzzled, and then his fast-running brain thought of something, and his smile became strange.

   "You also have your own careful thoughts, right?"

  Lorenzo did not deny it, he nodded, “Of course, but if I can, I don’t want that day to come. After all, it’s hard to accept such things as turning one's head against each other.”

  "Is there a conflict between individuals and groups?" Hercules said something that only the two of them could understand.

  Lorenzo no longer responded, but pulled up the inserted pocket knife, and left without looking back.

  After Lorenzo left, Camu walked back cautiously. Although he was not present at the time, it can be seen from the tragedy of these thugs that this was done by Lorenzo.

   "They sent the letter again."

  Camu looked at the direction Lorenzo was leaving, and after confirming that there was no one, he took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Herculi.

   "They really don't give up."

  Herkery glanced at the seal on the envelope, the melted lacquer was pressed into a peculiar symbol, and in the triangle, a strange eye stared quietly at the world.

   "Just burn it, I'm not interested in them."

   Hearing Hercule say this, Kamu was a little confused. Although he had not worked under Hercule for a few days, he probably understood what the letter meant.

"Really?"

"Of course, my curiosity and desire to control are too deformed, and they are a group of monsters with secrets. Do you think that after I join, I can hold back my nature and not explore them, or do they relax and no longer feel relieved? Watch me?"

  Herkeley continued.

   "Deduction can not only figure out the secrets, but also seek advantages and avoid disadvantages."

  Kamu nodded, which he agreed with. Although Hercule didn't look rich on the surface, he knew exactly how terrifying the wealth accumulation of this guy in front of him was. Presumably those people only valued Hercule.

This tavern is indeed the property of Hercules, but what was not mentioned in the conversation is that this is only one of Hercules' many industries. It is different from Lorenzo, who uses all his talents to hack demons. Kerry took his talent to the extreme.

  "They have been established for too long, and they are a shareholder if they die, but this time is different. Investing in this detective...I am a partner!"
