old dream

Chapter 36 "The Typewriter"

After Arecio left the room, he reached out and took the coat from the man who had been following him, and took out the glass block in his inner pocket.

It was a small petri dish similar to Julio's pendant. He walked to a corner, raised the glass block to the light and observed it for a while, and found that the reagent had indeed changed color.

The specific Vibrio carinii inside entered a state of stress again.

That young man named Colin may have some connection with transcendence, which has been verified twice by the flora.And Holy One Theological Seminary and the new lampkeeper seemed unaware of it.

Where is the misjudgment between the flora and the traditional detection method?On the other hand, assuming that Colin is a supernatural being, the spirit element will indeed always flow to reality through him as a medium, but it will not be transformed or annihilated all the time.

Unless, there is some ritual in him that has been running.

If there is no error in the detection of the flora, then it proves that someone specially hid this ritual, and the technique is high enough to bypass the conventional defenses of the religious groups.

Did Colin do it himself?Or someone else?
If such a person does exist, what exactly is he plotting?
Arecio was a little reluctant to think in this direction, because it meant that things had already reached a level that five hands should not touch.

Is it really the flora that is wrong?

But no matter whether the result is accurate or not, fortunately there is no volatilization device installed for the glass block, otherwise...

As he thought about it, he put away the glass block.

It was at this time that a gun was placed on Arecio's head.

Because the discovery just now was too bizarre, it made Arecio think too deeply and did not notice that someone was approaching behind him.

The man who had followed behind Arecio and fetched clothes for him had already been easily controlled, and he was submissive like a puppet without making a sound.

Arecio raised his hand slowly, waiting for the person behind him to speak first.

"Why didn't Julio follow you out?" someone asked in a low voice.

Familiar voice, remember that this person's title is "mangy dog", the name probably has "A" as the first syllable, Aangzo, or Alfonso, etc., because it is too common and unimpressive.

"I didn't swap her out," Arecio said, while casually thinking about the other person's name.

I don't know why, but the place where they agreed to trade with Colin was exposed.It may be that he leaked the news, or that the Cestalo family members were careless.

But now is not the time to pursue these.

This "lazy dog" is the one who wants Julio to die the most.Because he is the adopted son of Nevio, but his strength is limited.

In fact, even if Julio dies, the position of the patriarch probably does not belong to him.He couldn't tell where his inexplicable hostility came from, like having a dream that he didn't want to wake up from, and clinging to the last straw.

Arecio briefly glanced at the people he brought, five veterans, and sneaked into the theater with a suitcase and a portable light machine gun.

Since the decision to go to war with each other, several of Capello's leaders have been hoarding this thing at a great cost.

"Mangy" looked at the structure of this floor with a gambler's gaze.

"She's in the room you just came out of?"

"Well, yes."

It looks like the gang intends to make a move here.

After a while, there will be a little movement in the corridor to remind Luca that they are alright.

If Colin is really like Giovanni's description, then even if he can't protect Luca and the lampkeeper, he won't be killed in the first place.

As long as he didn't die in the first moment of the confrontation, he would still have the confidence to save him and not lose Julio's position completely.

The pressure given by the six portable machine guns is about the right amount.

Arecio reckoned: This is just a chance to test whether Colin has anything to do with transcendence.

……

……

Countless stray bullets splashed around the room.

The light bulb burst immediately, dozens of bullet holes were added to the door in the blink of an eye, and more and more light penetrated, and you could see countless scattered sawdust and dust jumping in the air.

The small stand facing the door is directly facing the stage. There should be bullets flying out of the high platform. Men and women panicked and screamed in the theater hall. was killed.

Mr. No. [-] believed Colin's words with intuition, and at this time he was quietly curled up in the corner.

Colin stared at the door waiting for the gunfire to end.For the stray bullets flying around in such a small space, whether or not they can survive is almost entirely dependent on luck.

Luca let out a muffled groan. It seemed that his luck was not very good, but his body still lay on his stomach and did not move.

Colin glanced at him, and it seemed that it was the leg that was injured.

As far as Colin is aware, the hand-held machine guns currently being built by the Principality's arsenal still have flaws in their design.

Its rate of fire is too fast, so the bullet will be poured out in less than two seconds, making it difficult to alternately suppress, or it is easy to enter the dilemma of bullet emptying.

Although the folks specially made a drum with a capacity of 100 bullets to alleviate this problem, the firepower lasts only about 5 seconds.Replacing the drums is extremely cumbersome and less reliable.

That's probably why they came with six guns at a time.

With a self-made drum, the gun body weighs more than eight kilograms.It is quite exaggerated that each person can smuggle a drum in, but at the current rate of bullet pouring, I am afraid it will not last long.

And that's where the opportunity to fight back lies.

But at this time Luca reluctantly said: "Colin, put away the gun."

"……why?"

"There are only two pistols here, which is too reluctant." Luca said: "It is estimated that Capello's people are not coming for us."

Seemingly because of the severe pain in his leg, Luca gritted his teeth:
"I promise they will pay, but not now."

……

……

The ten seconds between the gunshots and the silence seemed to be as long as a century.The cracked door was kicked open.Two men came in with pistols in their hands, and the movements were terribly amateur.

If it wasn't for Luka's instructions, Colin must have killed them by now.But right behind them, there are two people with portable machine guns, at least these people are not stupid enough to shoot all the bullets.

If lucky enough, Colin can kill them too, but he will also pay the price.

The last two people who entered the door were using pistols to control Arecio and the man who had followed him.

It appears that the location of the transaction has been leaked.And Arecio, as the lampkeeper, was so easily controlled?Is it because he is too weak, or is he intentionally bringing these people in?

The intruders pointed their guns at Colin and Luca, who were lying on the ground.Colin held an empty hand, but in fact the gun was hidden not far away and could be reached at any time.

Those few people searched every corner of the room, and ran to the stands to take a look at the theater hall. At this time, the venue was already in chaos, and people were pouring out in a panic.

One of the gunmen turned back and asked anxiously:
"Where's Julio? Where's that bitch?"

With such a commotion on Marizio's chassis, he himself knew that he couldn't stay here for long.

Colin suddenly felt some pity for these reckless men.
