Struggle in the Steam Age

Chapter 39: Emergencies

Hans’s restaurant is not very big, but whether it is the beige tablecloth, the bright candlesticks on the table, and the small bottle of flowers placed in the center of the table, this small restaurant is full of home warmth. sense.

   Dinner is the same, Mrs. Hans prepared a nine-course meal including appetizers and desserts. Especially the wonderful taste of the roast goose that was placed in the middle of the table as the main course of tonight made Lawrence feel that his stomach was empty all of a sudden, and he needed a quick meal. "

   It's a pity that just after everyone sat at the table and had just finished eating the mini cheese onion pie and creamy mushroom soup as the appetizer, a quick knock on the door interrupted the harmonious atmosphere in the room.

   After hearing the knock on the door, Frank went out and opened the door. Soon he walked back with a serious face: "I have something to go out now, you don't have to wait for me to eat."

   "Frank, what happened?" Molly looked at her husband with some worry and asked.

"Something went wrong at the police station." Frank explained to his wife while changing his clothes, "There are some strange phenomena in the special underground prison, and the police chief on duty has not come up since he went down to check, so he served as a criminal investigator. Team leader, I must pass now."

   "Let me go with you." Lawrence stood up. "After all, I was also one of the witnesses in that case. I think my ability should be able to play a role in this situation."

   "Wh... well. It's really hard for you." Frank thought for a while and agreed to Lawrence's request. "By the way, for safety's sake, you can take Edward's gun with you later."

   Under the worried eyes of a few people in the restaurant, Lawrence and Frank walked out the door fully armed. A black double chaise is now parked at the door, and a man in a police uniform stands behind the carriage with a serious face, holding the reins. After seeing Frank come out, he raises his arm and salutes Frank.

   Frank returned a gift and took Lawrence into the carriage. Before Lawrence sat down, the policeman behind flicked the reins to make the two horses pulling the cart rush.

   "When you came out, did you know what happened to the underground prison?" Frank turned his head and asked the policeman behind him loudly after the carriage ran up. "For example, you just said that there are some strange phenomena, can you tell me more specifically?"

   But I don't know if the wind is too strong or the policeman is rushing on the road. Frank yelled a lot and the policeman in the carriage behind the carriage did not answer.

   "I think we might have to go to the place and ask again later." Seeing that the inquiry had no results, Frank reluctantly said to Lawrence, "It's really not suitable to talk when driving a carriage."

   Because the sun is going down soon, but the gas street lamp hasn't come on yet, so the road is a bit dim. In particular, the dense street trees on both sides of the road blocked most of the light, making it almost impossible to see people on the street. Only when passing by the entrance of St. Gutenberg Cathedral, some lights from the church illuminate the street at the entrance.

   "No." Just as the carriage continued to move forward for three or four minutes and was about to reach its destination, Lawrence suddenly felt a sense of sleepiness swept over. But soon, the Bai Ze phantom floating above the sea of ​​mind sent a circle of light waves to wake him up.

   Lawrence immediately pretended to be hypnotized and slumped on the wall of the car, but his eyes slightly opened a slit to observe the policeman driving the carriage through the palm-sized window at the back of the carriage.

   The policeman now looks the same as usual, but Lawrence subconsciously feels that there is something wrong with him. So he quietly raised his left hand and released a [Protection from Evil] to the policeman.

  The magic came into effect immediately after it came into contact with the policeman: the policeman stiffened for a second, and then fell asleep with his neck tilted. At this time Lawrence also felt that the wrong feeling in the police behind him disappeared.

"Damn!" At this moment, the car suddenly bumped, and Lawrence realized that he was in a carriage that had lost control. Fortunately, his previous experience of living in a small town allowed him to drive past those farm carriages, so he Immediately he bowed forward and took the reins of the horse and then slowly stopped the carriage.

   "The trouble is big now." Lawrence looked at the surroundings and found that they were only ten meters away from the target police station, and two policemen were already walking in this direction.

   "Damn it, it's too late to call someone." Lawrence thought about putting his hand in his pocket, then jumped out of the car and sprinkled a handful of silver powder on the two police officers as they approached.

   The powder covered the mouth and nose of two people a few meters away under Lawrence's skillful throw. The two policemen were putting their hands on the sabers around their waists at this time and preparing to draw them out. They subconsciously took a breath after being attacked by the powder, and ended up in a coma just like the policeman driving the carriage just now.

   "Fortunately, even though I didn't bring a weapon when I went out, I still took a few gadgets that I made during the day." Lawrence let out a sigh of relief when he watched the two police officers who were unconscious. Although the magic of protection from evil is very useful, his current level of magic power can also release six in one go. It is definitely a very important thing for him to save a little bit of magic power for UU reading www.uukanshu.com. .

   Just when he was going to check the two policemen who fell on the ground, a strong sense of crisis spread throughout his body, and the hair on his body immediately stood up.

   The first time he felt the change in his body, Lawrence leaped forward to the right like an arrow from the string, and then rolled to the outside to hide behind a street tree.

   is the moment his body left the original position, accompanied by a scream, a group of dark red objects directly smashed the door of the police station and rushed out.

   "Boom." With the sound of a heavy object falling into the water, the mass directly hit the spot where Lawrence was standing. At this time, he discovered that the thing that came out was a mass of blood-red mucus. After the mucus fell on the stone slab of the street, it immediately smashed a large pit, and at the same time, the liquid made a noise after it touched the stone slab on the ground.

   Lawrence was surprised to see that these slate fragments came out of bubbles after encountering the liquid, and then they were visible to the naked eye. Traces were corroded.

   Seeing this scene, Lawrence felt a cool breeze blowing behind him. He felt that if he hadn't avoided it in time, the person who collected his body after this trick would probably put the rest of him in a matchbox.

   "What the **** is going on?" Lawrence hid nervously behind the tree and drew the pistol from his waist, then opened the hammer and stared nervously at the door of the police station that had been blown away. "What the **** was that just now?"

   Just as he was considering what to do next, the door that had been broken open slowly opened in his nervous eyes, and then there was a sound of footsteps.
