"A sculpture.
It's the last sculpture created by Master Mordin 600 years ago during the papal era, it's very valuable!
But after the papal era ended, this antique sculpture and art piece, Hell Breath, vanished along with it. It only appeared in the underground market recently and was found by those bastards from Bloody Ridges. They didn't just want to sell it off and exchange it for a large amount of money, they even wanted to rob the thief … "
"The contact that Barry gave me is also one of them and he offered quite a generous reward, I think they are determined to get it."
Emma Eddie then asked anxiously, "What should we do now? I know a decent place, if we go there, we should be able to safely escape this pursuit. "
"Are you sure the hiding place you mentioned is really safe?"
Emma Eddie looked hesitant when she heard Kieran's question.
The place she mentioned was safe under most circumstances, but that was only under most circumstances.
But that was only in most cases. What about the current situation?
Emma Eddie looked at Barry who was hung to death in the distance and shook her head in the end.
"So …
We should take the initiative and strike.
Besides, I'm not used to being chased like a rat.
Oh right.
Can you tell me more about Bloody Ridges? "
Kieran said as he looked at the police cruisers that were rushing towards them.
…
Pudder took the document in his hand and knocked the table with its edge.
"2567, four months ago, he disregarded the situation and made a move against a robber. He was lucky enough to apprehend three of the robbers and joined the ranks of the vigilantes.
According to witnesses, at least five violent incidents around Smorewill Street are related to you. "
Pudder looked at Kieran who was sitting in the chair and said in a cold tone.
Pudder didn't hate Kieran.
He hated all the vigilantes who thought they were high above the masses.
If it was possible, Pudder wouldn't mind apprehending all the vigilantes.
After all, in the chief's eyes, all the vigilantes acted recklessly and were no different from the dangerous criminals.
"Chief, I'm here to report a case.
My house was blown up. "
Kieran reiterated the reason why he was here.
"That's right, your house was blown up."
"Then, can you tell me what made you appear in front of the Blaze Bar when your house was blown up? What does Barry's death have to do with you? "
Pudder spoke quickly but his words were loud and clear.
Such a way of speaking made the chief unconsciously appear aggressive. Ordinary people would subconsciously be scared when they saw it.
But Kieran wouldn't do that. He just looked at her calmly.
He had dealt with too many "sheriffs" and knew how to deal with the situation at hand.
"I was there to chase after the people who blew up my house!"
"Barry's death has nothing to do with me!"
"Also, I am now a citizen seeking help, not a criminal being interrogated."
Kieran emphasized. He spoke very slowly, and his tone was also raised a few octaves.
Instantly, everyone's attention was drawn to them.
Some of them even seemed to be eager to try it out.
The cameras hanging in front of their chests and the notebooks in their hands stated their identity: reporters.
In this city where supernatural powers would appear from time to time, an explosion was enough to attract the reporters' attention, especially when there were casualties in the area.
The reporters were like sharks that smelled blood, not only did they swarm over, but they were also very aggressive.
Even though the officers formed a human wall, it couldn't stop the uncrowned king's passion and drive.
"Damn it!"
"Didn't you guys have dinner?
Or are you playing some more games? "
"Now that someone is dead, I'm looking for clues about the murderer. Can you guys see the uniform on you and the badge on your shoulder and chase these troublemakers out?"
Just as one of the reporters was about to pass the microphone to Kieran, Pudder slapped it away and pushed the reporter away forcefully.
Pudder shouted at the people around him while ignoring the flashing lights around him.
Then, he looked at Kieran.
"You think your little tricks are going to work?
You fella who likes to show off!
Let me tell you!
If I was worried about these bastards, I wouldn't have transferred you back to the station, I would have sent a patrol officer to record your statement and send you away!
Now! Come with me, kid!
The spacious hall isn't suitable for you anymore, there's another place that suits you better! "
Pudder bent down and lowered his head, almost facing Kieran as he spoke.
His face was filled with anger and mockery.
However, Kieran wasn't angry at all, he even felt a little nostalgic.
Pudder's image unconsciously overlapped with the few natives that Kieran considered his good friends in his memories.
"The same occupation and the same persistence have forged similar personalities?"
But … "
"I don't hate it."
Some people would go with the flow, some would be independent.
The latter, in most people's eyes, was extremely unusual and unsociable.
But wasn't it because of such people that the whole world became a place that people yearned for and looked forward to?
Kieran stood up and glanced over the few officers who moved swiftly after Pudder's words and most of the officers who were unwilling, he then headed towards the more suitable place that Pudder mentioned.
The interrogation room.
The moment the door was pushed open, Kieran confirmed the function of the interrogation room.
Then, he strode into the building.
Pudder, who wanted to push Kieran away, was stunned.
However, what stunned Pudder the most was when Kieran turned around, his back was facing the camera in the room and he was mouthing something at Pudder.
"Are you sure this place is safe?
If not, we better go somewhere else. "
Pudder quickly came back to his senses.
Years of experience allowed Pudder to guess why Kieran did what he did.
"What a mystifying bastard!"
Pudder's heart sank but he wasn't slow at all. He didn't just turn off the cameras, he even closed the blinds on the wall.
"What the hell are you doing?
Infuriating me so you can visit our interrogation room?
If you say yes, I'll let you visit more places! "
After everything was done, Pudder sat opposite Kieran and said fiercely.
"I'm sorry, something happened and I had to do this.
Do you know about Bloody Ridges and Hell Breath? "
Kieran asked.
"You, a vigilante, are involved in this as well?
Don't worry!
You are not the first and you won't be the last!
We will take care of everything!
"We've been ready for a long time!"
It was obvious that Pudder was not completely clueless about the Bloody Ridge obtaining the Hell Breath.
Kieran wasn't surprised though.
He nodded and said slowly.
"Mm.
It's good that you are prepared.
