Chapter 2443 [Creation of Light]

Chapter 2444 [Creation·Light]

The water of the Tatton River was roaring. The couple, whose faces were covered with black cloth, did not continue to move forward on the street along the river. Instead, they faced off against the five people blocking the road ahead. Both Mr. Feringa and Miss Brown were armed with pistols, and the five people in front of them were clearly urban gangsters.

"Is it someone you know this time?"

Mr. Albert, who was standing by the mailbox on the corner of another street that intersects with the street along the river, asked Shade. Shade squinted his eyes and looked:

"Although I know a group of dock gangsters, I don't know these people. I can't possibly know everyone in this city."

The coroner made a little joke:

"I thought you had the connections to use it anytime, anywhere. Let's go, how about just using the pistol? Is your marksmanship good?"

"You can call me the sharpshooter."

Although the revolver issued by MI6 was a single-shot pistol, Shade still only used it. After counting down to three, the two of them rushed out of the fog together——

Bang! Bang! Bang! Three gunshots were fired, by Shade, Mr. Albert and Miss Brown who heard the gunshots. As the three gangsters fell to the ground, the other two immediately fired back. But because their numbers were no longer superior, the return fire had no impact at all, except that Mr. Albert dodged a bullet.

Bang! Bang!

After two more gunshots, only one of the five people was directly killed by Miss Brown. The other four people were seriously injured and fell to the ground. One of them was about to die.

Shade and Mr. Albert walked out of the fog. The latter looked at the five people on the ground, took out a whistle from his pocket and blew it, and the sharp whistle immediately echoed in the riverside streets.

"Police whistle?"

"There are still three people who have been saved. I don't want to cause trouble to my colleagues at the National Police Agency."

The coroner responded that as for Mr. Ferlinga and Miss Brown, they immediately greeted the two people walking towards them:

"Your Excellency the Devotee!"

Shade glanced at Mr. Albert, but the latter did not look at him:

"Didn't I tell you to hide and wait for me to find you? How come you took the risk and escaped?"

Miss Brown, whose arm was injured, lowered her head in shame:

"I'm sorry, sir. I wanted to get rid of this trouble as soon as possible, but I didn't expect that my old boss would find out easily."

"I remember that you just said that having a card in your hand was troublesome, but you didn't say that there was any information."

Mr. Albert frowned again and Miss Brown pursed her lips and lowered her head even more:

"I'm really sorry. My past involves a lot of troublesome things."

"Guys, please leave here first, don't get blocked by the police."

Shade reminded, finally understanding that this matter was arranged this morning, but something unexpected happened midway.

So the group of four people quickly left the scene, with Mr. Albert, who was familiar with the local area, leading the way. Finally, they went down the street steps on the banks of the Taton River and arrived at the foot of the "Sigris Bridge" across the Taton River.

This bridge has a history of a hundred years, but due to the width of the bridge deck, it no longer meets the city's requirements, so the "Yuewan Bridge" was built further downstream.

The fog under the bridge was as thick as on the street, and Mr. Ferlinga, who finally saw Shade's disguised face clearly, finally asked hesitantly:

"Are you"

"Since Her Royal Highness Margaret is in Moon Bay, can't I be there?"

"It's really you!"

Mr. Ferlinga said in surprise, and Miss Brown, who was treating her wounds, immediately thanked her:

"You saved us the second time."

Without hesitation, he handed the suitcase in his hand directly to him:

"Here is evidence of bribes taken by local Gray Glove agents, collected by the 'Bottom Fish' codenamed 'Clock'.

He bought a precious playing card from a manor outside the city from the businessman who was killed by the gang. His authenticity was unknown, but he was also targeted by Gray Gloves because of this transaction. Originally, Gray Gloves just wanted to kill him and take the card using the excuse of being a spy, but after investigation, he found that he was really from MI6, and now he didn't even need an excuse.

Before he died, 'Clock' gave me the cards that caused death and this box of secrets, and that's how today's events happened. "

The former royal maid explained the whole story in a few words, and Shade asked curiously:

"I asked you to stay away from Delarion, not to go to Moon Bay and contact MI6. Why did you know the dead agent? Why did you agree to take these things that will cause big trouble?"

Mr. Ferlinga responded on behalf of his wife. After half a year of not seeing each other, the original mechanical engineer has become more mature:

"I also agree with Jane that she is doing this. It is not safe for us to hide all the time. That 'clock' happened to be trained in the same batch as her, so I asked her to get in touch so that she can find out the latest situation at any time."

"As for taking over the batch of documents, I admit that I was greedy. I thought that if I could return the documents to the Sixth Division, maybe the director would forgive me for defecting."

When Miss Brown said the last word, she also saw the look in Shade's eyes:

"I understand now that there was no turning back from the beginning."

"Isn't it great for you to live like this? No one is publicly wanted by any party. As long as you live a stable life, no one will cause trouble for you."

Shade was qualified to say this, because MI6 really never looked for Miss Brown who left Tobesk.

The couple also knew that their adventure was wrong, but time could not be reversed. Fortunately, the worst outcome did not happen:

"Sir, we are sorry that we deceived you."

"You did not deceive me, but all the companions who worked hard for this matter."

The coroner sighed:

"Remember to apologize to everyone at the next meeting. Go back, Mrs. Fox is still waiting for you to go home. This matter ends here. I will find a way to cover up your traces. Just like this gentleman said, live a stable life in Yuewan."

It is a bit ridiculous to say the word "stable" in Yuewan today, but the couple still thanked them again and left in a hurry. Xia De looked at their backs and guessed that if [Eternal Light] could continue to develop in the future, it would definitely use some intelligence and spy skills mastered by Miss Brown.

Her story with Mr. Feringa has not yet reached the stage of "the prince and princess live happily together". She took a wrong step again, and her life will never be completely calm in the future.

Only Shade and Mr. Albert were left in the fog. Shade looked at the briefcase in his hand, and the latter reminded him:

"There is only information about the disaster in it, and the card is not here."

He took out his notebook from his robe, and then handed the card in it to Shade with the back facing up:

"At first they just said that they were chased by people looking for this card, so this card was given to me. Well, I also deceived you. This card has been in my hand for half a month."

The thin card was almost weightless. Shade, who thought he was used to big scenes, still felt his heartbeat slightly accelerated when he got this card.

He remained calm and turned the card to the front. On the card, a giant dragon raised its head in front of the radiant light as if roaring. The dragon was different from any dragon Shade had seen. He could only use simple adjectives such as "ancient", "powerful" and "sacred" to describe his first impression.

Then he looked at the top of the card.

On the upper right corner was the number 5, and on the upper left corner was the very familiar "star" logo. Between the two, that is, in the center of the upper front of the card, there is a black vertical line in the white circle, which is the symbol of the "Origin" series.

Then I moved my eyes to the bottom of the card, where there were a few lines of small words:

[After drawing this card and at any stage before the suspension, you can force the opponent to show all the cards in his hand; in the settlement stage with this card, if you explode, you can force the opponent's total points to be the same as your total points. Only one of the two effects can be activated in the same round. ]

Effect 1 is equivalent to letting the opponent show his cards, which is the same as the special rules of the [Big City Player Champion] series;

And effect 2 is equivalent to drawing this card, so you don't have to worry about exploding and losing. Even if you can't see the opponent's bottom cards after activating effect 2, you can still take radical risks. After all, even if you explode, it's just a draw.

"Light can see everything, light can melt everything."

The coroner on the side summarized the characteristics of this card in simple words, and completed the final story of the card's dispersion in Yuewan:

"The reason why the businessman who originally owned three cards was killed was not only because of the greed of the gangsters, but those gangsters were hired by Viscount Belgra."

"The champion of the 'Big City Player' in Lockwood City in 1850?"

Shad asked. He even played cards with the other party.

"Yes, according to our investigation, Viscount Gra has deep ties with local underground casinos and the Rhodes black market. He publicly announced his willingness to bet on special cards with anyone over the years just to find out the location of more special cards and then get those cards in various ways."

Mr. Albert's tone was very calm. They had been investigating these things before Shade came to Yuewan:

"The Viscount's real target is not the other two cards, but this [Founding Light]. Don't worry, only me, Miss Brown and Viscount Gra know what this card is. The Viscount is worried about the secret being leaked and he can't get the card himself.

After the three cards were lost, the death of the MI6 agent was actually related to Viscount Gra. But there is no need for MI6 to retaliate. I have made arrangements. The Viscount will die of ricin tonight. Too many people have died because of him recently."

Shade was not interested in the death of the 1850 champion. He stood up the card in his hand:

"Will you give me this card?"
