Chapter 264: Chasing and Escape
A man in a black suit was walking out of the gate of the Church of the Night.
Formal suits are very common. The brim of the top hat is pulled down to cover his face. He is holding a black cane in his hand. The whole person looks inconspicuous. He blends into the crowd like a drop of water in the sea.
It's just that his body shape is hard to hide. The man is tall, strong and slightly thin. Occasionally, when he turns his head, he will inadvertently reveal a young and handsome face under the brim of his hat.
Lynch Leviv's face.
Lynch walked out of the church with his head down, looked around vigilantly, and then walked towards the Rhine Bridge leading to the King's District. He walked hurriedly, and his eyes kept glancing around while walking, carefully observing the passers-by around him.
The surroundings were calm, and there was no abnormality worth noting.
Two people in blue uniforms rode police horses on the street, just walking in the same direction as Lynch. A ragged beggar carrying tattered bedding was wandering on the street, also moving in the direction of Lynch.
Ding-ling-ding-ling, with the crisp sound of the carriage bell, a rented carriage turned out from the horizontal street and turned onto the cobblestone road that Lynch was walking on. The beggar seemed to have seen the target, muttering with shining eyes, and went around into another alley.
There were many people on the road, and the rented carriage was moving slowly, stopping and starting, and never got away from Lynch. At this time, two young men in coarse work clothes were chasing and laughing, passing by Lynch, and pushing and fighting not far ahead, causing the gentlemen passing by to frown.
At the same time, loud quarrels and broken utensils came from the alley not far away. Two blue-uniformed men on horseback immediately blew whistles and entered the alley, leaving Lynch's side.
Everything was normal as usual, but Lynch, who lowered his head, was still a little uneasy. He suddenly stopped and looked around, but all he saw were rented carriages stopping and starting in the traffic, young people laughing in the crowd, bustling streets, and a square full of vendors in the distance.
But Lynch was not reassured. He turned around without warning and started to return along the same route. After a few dozen meters, he turned into a side street. The horse-drawn carriage and the young people who were playing behind him did not react to this and continued to quietly leave in the original direction.
"Master, Madam, give me two pennies. God will bless you."
As soon as he turned into the side street, he saw the beggar just now entangled with a middle-aged gentleman couple holding out the plate in his hand. The beggar let Lynch walk past him, but he didn't even look at him, just focused on the coins that the gentleman and his wife were throwing into the plate.
"Sir, sir, buy a flower for the lady."
At the same time, the flower girl who was sitting on the side of the road stood up with a flower basket, chasing after a passing couple, jogging all the way, and kept shouting her roses, so that Lynch almost hit his arm when he passed by her, but she didn't care at all, and was still working hard to sell her goods.
The flower girl stopped peddling and walked back to the side of the road until Lin Qi's figure disappeared from the end of the alley, and the homeless beggar just passed by her.
"Notify post No. 9, the target is moving in their direction, pay attention to the handover."
"Understood."
The beggar did not slow down, and even their eyes did not cross, and the two of them had already passed by. The flower girl stayed where she was, and the beggar seemed to have found another prey to beg for, and suddenly took a big step and ran wildly in one direction.
There were many people on the street, but the beggar still got through like a fish, but he almost bumped into a beautiful noble girl holding a round fan on the way, which attracted a few coquettish noises.
The flower girl who stayed in the same place played with a rose for a while, then suddenly stepped back a few steps and disappeared into a dark alley on the side of the road. In the darkness, she grabbed the hem of her skirt and pulled it hard. With a sizzling sound, the plain long skirt was torn apart, revealing the shirt and trousers inside. Then she put on a peaked cap and immediately changed into a men's outfit. Then she threw the flower basket into the garbage dump in the dark alley and hurried out of the dark alley.
The street was still crowded with people, and no one realized that the dark alley swallowed a flower girl and spit out a man in men's clothing. The man in men's clothing pressed the brim of his hat, observed a circle with familiarity, and then strode in the opposite direction, passing by a girl with a round fan who was choosing hair accessories in front of a roadside stall without noticing
Passing by, the man in men's clothing quickly went away, and a subtle smile appeared at the corner of her mouth behind the round fan, and her pupils shrank slightly. The girl then put the hair accessories back on the stall and turned to leave the cross street, in the direction where the man in men's clothing left. The pace was slow, not too fast or too slow, but just as she passed a shadow, as the light and shadow intertwined, the girl's figure suddenly disappeared out of thin air, as if she had merged into the shadow.
The man in the men's suit knew nothing about this, and walked faster and faster without looking around, and soon arrived at the main road beside the square. At this time, Lynch, who was being followed, had already gone far away, and the two patrol policemen were patrolling on the road on horseback.
The man in the men's suit slowed down his pace and stopped by the roadside to cross the road, and the police just turned in a direction and rode past the man in the men's suit, and the two figures crossed on the roadside.
"No. 5 reported that the target was moving towards No. 9. It is recommended that No. 11, No. 6, and No. 2 be prepared. The target is highly alert, and it is not recommended to actively interfere, so as not to cause the target to escape."
Before the voice fell, the two sides crossed, the two policemen crossed the intersection, and the man in the men's suit also crossed the road and disappeared into the crowd on the opposite side.
The two mounted policemen drove slowly along the road for a while, passing a girl swaying and fanning herself on the side of the road. Then one of them suddenly accelerated, bypassing the carriages and pedestrians on the street, and disappeared at the end of the long street, while the other remained The patrol speed turned onto the square.
The clatter of horse hooves was clear and loud, and the running patrolman left the square. He could not run too fast on the crowded streets, and the rider slowly approached several four-story buildings.
Compared with the gorgeous Victorian buildings, these buildings are more heavy and simple. They are the administrative buildings of the Rhine City Engineering Construction Center that have been expropriated for a long time for the Nolin-Rhine Railway project.
The surroundings were quite deserted. The mounted policeman ran faster and faster, and soon arrived at the entrance of the center. He jumped off his horse lightly and let the guard lead the horse away skillfully, while he ran into the building without stopping.
He rushed to the conference room on the top floor. As soon as he entered the door, the rider put his legs together and knocked his chest with his fists. This was the standard etiquette of the Hall of Order.
"Reporting to the commander, the target has entered the encirclement and can be encircled and suppressed at any time."
"Yes, you did a good job. Go ahead and get ready to start." In the conference room, the gloomy face of Walker, the leader of the Rangers, softened slightly and turned to the other two people. "Two gentlemen, please feel relieved now. We are here today." We have been following him since early in the morning. It is impossible for him to discover these professional methods. I said, he cannot escape. "
"This Mr. Lynch Leviv is very cunning. Starting from our Randall brothers, he has caused us a lot of trouble. This time I came to Rhine to avenge them."
A middle-aged man wearing a white formal suit and a gray cloak stroked his beard and said with a half-smile:
"I already know him very well. I suggest you not to let your guard down. His inexplicable entry into the Church of the Night just now is a very dangerous signal. If you are not careful, it will not be as simple as being escaped by him once."
"Um?"
"Based on what we know about him, he is not someone who can be satisfied just escaping danger. Our Mr. Randall is an example. Faced with those who want him dead, he will fight back even if he wants to. A few days ago, I If you go to say hello to him, you will almost be tricked by him. Be careful, he will follow the person who is monitoring him. "
"Hahaha, don't worry about this, Mr. Kelvin. Those who are following and setting up ambushes are our specially trained professionals. It is very difficult to escape their sight, let alone find us along the way. Hahaha, if he If you really come here, I will kneel in front of him and kowtow to admit defeat, so you don’t have to worry too much.”
"I hope you're right."
Kelvin smiled noncommittally, while another man standing by the window looking out with a monocular said in a hoarse voice: "I saw him, it's not wrong. This guy is indeed cunning, but this It should be no problem.”
It was a man wrapped up tightly, even his face was covered, only one dim eye was exposed, and the other eye was covered with an eyepatch. Even though this man was wrapped in several layers, he still exuded a strong fishy smell.
"But Walker, Walker, are you sure the things were really deceived by him?"
"It's not wrong. He will take the opportunity of the cocktail party to return the things to Princess Chloe on the 17th, which means that the things must be in his hands. This is the news returned by our informant in the Earl of Lorende's Mansion. Wrong No, and he must have it with him, we have a way to predict it.”
"Then why don't you just take it back from the princess in the New World without waiting for him to return it to the princess in the New World?" Kelvin asked slowly, "That would be safer."
"Your Excellency no longer trusts Princess Chloe. Grabbing it before they hand it over can ensure the safety of the things. Otherwise, who knows what farce they will stage. We can't give them another chance."
Walker sneered and said bitterly:
"It's time to settle the accounts between us. Humph, Mr. Kelvin, I'll trouble you, a high-level soul-shifter with level 7 power, to take action in a moment. Once you start taking action, please activate your arrangements to put him Transported to destination."
"Ready to serve."
"It's up to you after that, old blind man. Your people have already been arranged there."
"Hehehe, of course, the surrounding area has been sealed. Once it passes, he will not be able to escape. We have arranged forty sailors, all of whom are good men on the ship, enough to tear him into pieces." One Eye stared at the figure in the distance through the telescope , said coldly, "He actually dared to offend me that night, and he must pay the price. Hehe, get ready, it's about to begin."
Kelvin took a deep breath and stood up with a smile: "I can do it at any time."
"Hehehe." The deep diver next to the window smiled evilly, and was suddenly stunned. "Walker, Walker, what's going on with your people? What are they making gestures?"
"how?"
Walker also rushed to the window, looked over with a telescope, and then broke out in cold sweat.
"Oops, they went with the wrong target. It wasn't Lynch Levy at all."
For a moment, the three people in the room who were confident just now looked at each other in confusion.
If you are not following the target, then where is the target?
"It must be here." Mr. Kelvin knew Lynch best and immediately realized the problem. "He must have followed. This is his style. He is right next to us. Huh, Mr. Detective, you shouldn't have come. , you are dead this time."
As he spoke, he punched the ground and activated his ability regardless of whether there were only three people in the room.
[Power, communication, ability, space transfer]
The next moment, everyone in the reception room disappeared out of thin air, and then appeared in an empty dock at Shiratori Port.
