A sloppily dressed man stood behind Emma Eddie.
The man was pointing a gun at the back of the girl's head, and he was very careful. He curled up behind Emma Eddie, not showing any extra part of his body.
"Behave yourselves, all of you!
If you don't want anything to happen to her! "
The man shouted and pushed Emma Eddie into the room.
Then, the uninvited guest realized that his words didn't seem to work. Although two people stood up and stared at him, the person sitting at the innermost of the table was still eating by himself.
"STOP!
I SAID STOP!
DO YOU HEAR ME? "
The man pointed his gun at the back of Emma Eddie's head. The force from the blow made Emma Eddie stagger, and the pain from the back of her head made her see stars. She stared at Kieran, who was still eating and drinking.
Was he going to ignore her now that their collaboration was over?
The thought made Emma Eddie feel slightly wronged in her heart.
On the other hand, the uninvited guest behind Emma Eddie was furious.
"Go to hell!"
The man turned his gun and pointed it at Kieran, ready to pull the trigger.
However, just as the man was about to pull the trigger, a narrow longsword flew out from the shadow and slashed the man's neck.
Blood splattered and the man's head flew up high.
On top of that, the narrow longsword turned around and picked up the falling body, easily throwing it out of the door.
The body didn't fall to the ground.
Instead, it exploded in mid-air!
KABOOM!
A fireball rumbled in mid-air, black smoke coming out of it. The loud explosion made the people who were heading out to work scatter in panic.
The Freezer and Bloodman squinted their eyes.
Even Emma Eddie, who was pointed at with a gun, had a thoughtful look on her face.
It wasn't a robbery!
At least it wasn't a simple robbery!
Every robber was after money, they wouldn't strap a bomb on their body.
Even some desperados wouldn't do something like that!
Moreover, with the power of the bomb, the man couldn't have hidden it under the T-shirt.
In my body?
Both Freezer and Bloodman's faces turned pale when the thought popped up in their minds, but neither of them said anything to disturb Kieran.
This was because they knew very well that other than wasting food, Kieran hated being disturbed while he was eating.
Emma Eddie also vaguely knew this.
Therefore, he hid the grievances in his heart and stood aside.
As for leaving?
Stop joking!
It was obvious that something big had happened. As a member of this place, she had already been targeted. Once she left this place, she would be killed!
Judging from the craziness of the attackers, they would not listen to her explanation.
For a moment, there was only the sound of chewing in the room.
After finishing all ten sandwiches, Kieran wiped his mouth and said to the Freezer, "Let's go welcome our old friend."
…
Pudder who was once disguised by Thousand-faced Man had put on his police uniform again.
He was adjusting his state.
Overall, it was not bad.
Holding the coffee in his hand, he used the bitter liquid to expel the tiredness from a sleepless night.
Pudder felt quite a sense of achievement when he saw the thick stack of marked documents on his desk. He couldn't help but curl his lips into a smile but soon enough, he couldn't smile anymore.
"Chief!
Explosion at Randletine Street!
There's at least one casualty at the scene! "
"Randletine Street?"
Pudder frowned when he heard the name of the place.
There were a couple of troublesome bastards living there.
"Don't tell me it's 17th Randletine Street?"
Pudder asked.
"No, it's not 17th Randletine Street.
It's in front of 17th Randletine Street.
"Your friends, they're fine."
The assistant then provided the exact location.
"Who's friends with them?
A bunch of lawless … bastards. "
Pudder wanted to say "bastards" out of instinct but when the words reached his mouth, it became "bastards".
He didn't think that he should say such words to his savior, but the identity of his savior went against his beliefs.
Kindness and duty.
For Pudder, neither could be ignored.
So, it became torture.
Huu!
A deep breath later, Pudder decided not to think about it for the time being.
He couldn't solve the problem no matter how much he thought about it, might as well see what happened at the scene.
He took out his gun from the drawer and holstered it. Pudder and his assistant then headed downstairs. Two police cruisers with officers were already on their way when they received the call.
The scene of the explosion required protection.
The police cruisers that were parked downstairs were the independent vehicles owned by the chief officer. For the convenience of certain investigations, there was no need for a badge on the cruiser, it looked like a private car.
An officer was in the driver's seat, waiting for Pudder and his assistant.
"Chief Officer."
The officer greeted Pudder.
"Em."
Pudder nodded, sizing up the officer before him out of his professional habit. An unfamiliar face, he should be a newcomer. His right middle finger was burnt yellow, he must have the habit of smoking. Although his neck was covered, a corner of his tattoo was still exposed.
Wait!
Tattoo?
Other than some special agents, according to the rules, no officer was allowed to have a tattoo.
Out of instinct, Pudder stopped his assistant who was about to get into the car, his sharp eyes staring at the officer in the driver's seat.
"You are new here?
What's your officer number? "
As he asked, Pudder reached for his holster.
"Tsk tsk."
The officer in the driver's seat showed a weird smile when he heard Pudder's question. He even smacked his lips repeatedly, even though he was being pointed at by a gun.
His instinct told him that he was in danger.
"Back off!"
Pudder bellowed loudly and pulled his assistant back to the hall.
KABOOM!
Just when Pudder was 4 to 5 meters away, an explosion happened.
The tremendous impact sent Pudder and his assistant flying more than a dozen meters away. Both of them rolled on the ground a few times before standing up in an ugly state. Pudder shouted loudly with an ugly expression when he saw the wreckage of the car and the messy surroundings.
"Investigate!
"Get me all the surveillance footage!"
I want to know everything about this bastard in 10 minutes! "
…
Willis walked out of Hero Alliance's building while humming a popular tune.
Following Death Knell, Mr. Ghost, and Grudge Dragon's demise, Smorewill Street Block was cleaned up. As Drexton's assistant and the eyes of many, Willis was granted a rare holiday.
It had been two years since he last got a holiday.
Every day, he had to keep an eye on those villains who might do evil.
It was too tiring!
He wanted to have a good rest!
At the same time, Willis silently gave his blessings to his colleagues who were still working.
He was granted a holiday but it didn't mean others got one too.
Including Drexton, a lot of people were still cleaning up the stubborn criminals in Smorewill Street.
Those bastards had committed heinous crimes, even if they were brought to court, they would be hanged. Therefore, it was impossible for them to surrender.
However, Willis wasn't optimistic about the stubborn resistance of these people.
No one knew the difference between a normal person and a superpower better than Willis himself.
"Forget it! Forget it!
It's a rare holiday, I'll stay at home and clear all the games I've saved up!
I'll order burgers and soda for 10 days, a wonderful holiday is about to begin! "
Willis couldn't help but show a happy smile when he thought about the wonderful life ahead of him.
The place he stayed at wasn't far from Hero Alliance's headquarters, just a block away. When he arrived on foot, the delivery man was already waiting for him at the entrance.
"Your order.
We'll deliver it to your door on time for the next 10 days.
Oh right, because of your continuous orders, we'll give you a set of meal coupons, you can get a 10% discount when you order from now on. You'll have to fill in your identity information here. "
The delivery man passed a form to Willis.
Willis started to fill in the form happily.
He was a wage earner, how could he not be happy when he could get a 10% discount?
After accumulating for a long time, it would be a huge sum of money, enough for him to buy a few more big-budget games.
While he was filling in the form, Willis heard a strange ticking noise.
It came from the delivery man's body.
It was familiar.
It felt like a clock.
However, with the corresponding training and natural abilities, Willis was able to tell the difference. Without a second thought, Willis turned around and ran for it.
KABOOM!
KABOOM!
Sparks flew everywhere, the explosion caused Willis' ears to ring but he couldn't care less.
But he couldn't care less. When he turned around to look at the house that had been turned into a sea of fire by the second explosion, he knelt on the ground.
"My game console, my game discs, my figurines, my Perfect Body Bolster …"
"It's over! Everything is over! "
"The world has turned dark, it's meaningless!"
Willis was limp on the ground, powerless.
His condition didn't change when he arrived at 17th Randletine Street.
"What happened to him?"
Emma Eddie pointed at Willis whose upper body was crawling on the table. His entire body had turned gray as he asked Pudder, who came along with him and was injured.
"I don't know.
"Some faith must have been destroyed, right?"
Pudder then looked at Kieran.
"What do you think about this explosion?"
"The tech department went through all the surveillance cameras in the area and didn't find anything, not even a single image of that bastard.
A bunch of good-for-nothings! "
Pudder couldn't help but slam his fist on the table.
Anyone could see how angry he was.
For a chief officer, someone delivering a bomb to his station wasn't just a simple provocation anymore, from a certain aspect, it could be considered as an insult.
The worst thing was, he had no way to retaliate against the insult.
Kieran didn't say anything, all he did was slightly signal to the Freezer.
An opened notebook was placed in front of Pudder.
The scene that appeared on the notebook was the one that happened at 17th Randletine Street.
However, to Pudder's astonishment, the notebook didn't show the scene before and after the explosion, as if it was taken out of thin air.
"Your surveillance system was hacked as well?"
Pudder frowned.
Before he came here, Pudder had placed all his hopes on Ferris the Freezer.
According to the files that Pudder got, Ferris was once a math teacher and was skilled in mechanics. Multiple encounters with him proved that he was a vigilant person.
17th Randletine Street didn't just have advanced surveillance cameras around it, there wasn't even a single blind spot.
"It's not as simple as being hacked."
Ferris said in a cold tone before he started to operate the notebook.
Soon enough, Pudder saw the whole of Randletine Street.
"You installed surveillance cameras in a public area and hacked into someone else's private surveillance cameras, it's illegal …"
"Huh?"
Pudder said out of instinct but the moment the words escaped his mouth, he stopped abruptly because he realized the footage of the explosion on the street had disappeared.
"All the surveillance cameras here, including the private surveillance cameras and the public surveillance cameras, even the surveillance cameras in Alkender City during that time period have all disappeared."
Ferris' voice didn't even fluctuate.
"All the surveillance cameras?
"This is impossible!"
"These probes belong to different departments, especially those private probes. The security level is very high. Although hackers can hack in, even the best hacker can't do it at the same time!"
The middle-aged chief officer instinctively shook his head.
"Although it's very difficult, it's still doable."
"It's just that the time spent is unimaginable, and it's not worth it to spend so much effort to ambush you and Willis."
"Judging from his behavior, it's more like he did something insignificant."
"So, it should be some kind of ability that we don't know about."
Ferris said objectively.
"…"
The middle-aged sergeant wanted to retort, but after thinking about it, he had nothing to say.
Although he was the sheriff, compared to some people, he was indeed dispensable.
"My games, figurines, and pillows are priceless."
Willis shouted loudly.
But no one paid attention to him.
The chief officer looked at Kieran again.
"A bastard with special abilities has appeared. 2567, do you have any clues?"
Pudder stopped beating about the bush.
"A little."
"The head."
"After I chopped off the head and tossed the body out, the explosion happened and the head was preserved."
"As a chess piece, you should have come in contact with the chess player."
As Kieran spoke, Bloodman beside him came out with a plastic bag.
Emma Eddie twisted her body unnaturally.
She might be used to the bloody scene.
But looking at a head directly was still too much for her.
"This is great!"
"This is the best news I've heard this morning."
The chief officer showed a smile.
"Can you give me the head?"
The chief officer asked.
"Um.
"However, there's a condition. You have to tell me everything you've investigated."
Kieran smiled.
"As long as it doesn't violate the rules, sure."
The chief officer nodded, picked up the plastic bag and walked out.
The moment the middle-aged sergeant left and the door closed again, the phone in the room suddenly rang.
Ring Ring Ring!
Ring Ring Ring!
"Hello?"
The phone rang twice before the Freezer passed the phone to Kieran.
When Kieran picked up the phone, a gloomy voice came from the other end.
"My morning greetings to you …"
"No."
