Chapter 116 Silver Hymn (1)
Queens, East 118th Street.
In front of a building named [Knickerbocker Antique Pawnshop], the black Chevrolet stopped slowly, and Abraham, leaning on a sword crutch, pushed the door out first.
After some conversations, he still couldn't figure out Lu Li's real purpose, anyway, it couldn't be as noble as he said.
After all, people all over the world know what the virtues of the American police are.
However, Abraham still chose to trust Lu Li for the time being, because he was a lonely old man with nothing worth plotting, at least on the surface.
"Grandpa, do you have any plans?"
"Find those two hundred and six reincarnated corpses, destroy them, and dispose of their relatives transformed by them."
Revenant corpse?
A very interesting title.
Lu Li, who was walking behind, was thinking in secret, while Abraham used the key to open the sliding door and rolling door, and walked into the antique house.
Clocks and watches from the 19th century, music boxes from 60 to 70 years ago, porcelain from the Far East...
There are true and false.
At least Lu Li was sure that the porcelain was a fake because there was a string of English printed on it:
Made in China
It can be seen at a glance that this is a daily necessities mass-produced by modern machines.
Not far away, Abraham seemed to guess what Lu Li was thinking. While opening the hidden door of the secret room, he explained, "In order to recover silverware and forge weapons, I have to find a way to make some money."
Hearing this, Lu Li nodded.
Going to an antique house to search for things is similar to going to a gambling table to compete for luck and skills. You must be prepared to drill your eyes. If you buy imitations, you can only admit that you have bad eyesight.
Not long after, the two walked into the basement side by side.
Looking at the objects in front of him, Lu Li was stunned again.
Silver plates, silver knives and forks, silver jewelry...
The bright white metal shone dazzlingly under the chandelier, and these silverware were stored in baskets and baskets, and they were collected by the catty.
Next to them, there are silver smelting furnaces, grinding tools, and some unnamed tools.
The forged products were all hung on the wall by the old man. There were hundreds of silver daggers, silver bullets, and even a privately modified nail gun. The magazine storage compartment was filled with silver nails.
What is a professional?
What do you mean not revealing your wealth?
This is it!
Lu Li was at a loss for words. If these silverware were sold, it might cause a huge commotion.
"Silver can kill reanimated corpses."
Abraham didn't care about these extraneous things. He pointed to the wall covered with weapons and said, "Take whatever you think is convenient."
"You don't seem to have any Parabellum 9mm rounds here."
With that said, Lu Li pulled out the Beretta police pistol from his waist, and asked, "Can't ordinary bullets kill them?"
"Yes, but the conditions are harsh. The brain must be destroyed." Abraham stepped forward, took off the nail gun and handed it over: "You can try this. After modification, its effective range can reach 30 meters."
At a glance, there are nearly a hundred silver nails in the magazine storage compartment, which is larger than the ammunition capacity of the rifle. Therefore, Lu Li did not refuse and carried it on his shoulder.
In addition, he took off two daggers casually and fixed them with belts.
In this way, Lu Li is fully armed.
However, just as he was about to continue discussing specific action plans with Abraham, the phone rang.
"Dude, this is Paul."
"The fat doctor named Jim took a taxi to the Stone Heart Group, but he never came out."
"No, I've seen him."
"This guy has a black bag in his hand, does he need to be arrested?"
His tone was a little irritable.
However, Lu Li stopped Paul's reckless behavior with words: "Don't forget, we are acting without authorization and there is no arrest warrant. Therefore, you just need to continue to follow him, and don't startle him."
"Also, did you record the video?"
"Of course, in order to take pictures of this bitch, I specially changed to an iPhone with a large memory."
"Good luck."
call ended.
Abraham looked at Lu Li, waiting for him to share the information.
"The forces that assist the blood race to cross the river have been found, Shixin Group."
After finishing speaking, Lu Li added in his mind: and my classmates, the number is unknown.
Leaning on his sword and crutches, the old man let out a long sigh and said in a low voice, "Another careerist who was lured by darkness."
"So, have you changed your mind?" Lu Li said half-jokingly and half-seriously, "For example, directly kill the Shixin Group and ask that black-hearted capitalist to reveal the whereabouts of the Blood Ancestor."
Abraham shook his head: "No, the plan remains the same, first kill all the reincarnated corpses to prevent the further spread of the disease."
Lu Li wasn't surprised, but couldn't help asking, "Just the two of us? You know, these passengers live all over New York."
"True, but, in the early stages of infection, they are very fragile and can be easily killed."
"What's more, since you are willing to join me and save the fate of mankind together, it means that there will definitely be more people willing to do so, perhaps in the next family, or in the next family."
The old man said very seriously, "By analogy, if more than 30 people participate, it won't take long to resolve the crisis."
Too idealistic, naive and terrifying.
In fact, as early as the drive here, he felt that the old man was a bit pedantic——
The world is going downhill, and people's hearts are not old.
Seventy or eighty years ago, there were mostly kind and simple people, but now, let's rest.
Seeing that Lu Li didn't express anything, Abraham coughed a few times, his voice trembling:
"Mr. Police Officer, I know you have doubts, but I have dealt with this thing all my life, and I have deduced countless plans, so I can guarantee that nothing will go wrong."
"Think about yourself again. Focus on the four survivors. What else have you gained besides wasting time?"
There was a moment of silence.
"All right."
Lu Li thought of his experience of being teased by the Blood Ancestor, and said helplessly, "I listen to your arrangement. I hope this matter can help us build mutual trust."
In fact, he was very curious about what could make an old man who had suffered and tortured live to be a hundred years old, and still have the ability to challenge the Blood Ancestor with a sword crutch.
Maybe, that thing can act on him to improve his strength.
Thinking of this, Lu Li became more active and suggested, "I can infiltrate the relevant agencies and steal the personal information of all the passengers on the dead flight."
"Need not."
Abraham pulled out the giant sword hidden in the crutch, and wiped it gently with a rag, "Before going to the airport, I prepared for the worst, so I entrusted a girl in advance to help investigate passenger information through the Internet."
girl?
Hacker?
Lu Li felt that he meant something.
However, I can't tell at all that the old man is so trendy and knows the Internet!
In this way, Lu Li had confidence in his next move.
Thanks to the boss "Yanzhijin" for the reward, and the boss "Cao Yunjin" for the monthly ticket~
