Man in the old days, Lord of the Seven Sins

Chapter 73 Who are you talking about in a hurry?

"Yes, very good, now pick me up and drag me away."

Reiner's body was completely following Herbert's whispers.

And his seductive whisper made John frown.

If the current situation did not allow him to shoot casually, he really wanted to blow Herbert's head off with one shot.

Reiner is an idiot, things will only get worse if you do this.

Some of the townspeople gathered obviously knew Reiner, and when they saw him holding a knife against Dr. Herbert's neck, they shouted angrily.

"Reiner!!! What are you doing!?"

"I'm just...I'm just." Reiner's face was pale, and his words had fallen into confusion, with no logic at all.

When he saw someone loading the shotgun, his expression changed suddenly.

"Don't come here, if you want to keep Dr. Herbert safe, don't come here!!!"

"Don't come here!"

John stood beside Reiner, holding a gun, aiming at the man who was trying to approach with a shotgun. It was useless to say anything else at this time. The matter had reached this point, so he could only find a way to leave first.

"Everyone, in fact, we originally just wanted to go to the clinic to have a chat, but because of some sudden incidents, the current situation has been caused. If possible, I hope you can let these two gentlemen leave. They have no malicious intentions. .” Herbert still had a smile on his face.

He spoke sincerely what sounded like honesty in John's ears.

Coupled with that face that didn't seem to be threatening or even gave people a sense of light, it made John feel disgusted in his heart.

It was like a mouthful of thick phlegm stuck in his throat and he couldn't spit it out.

This feels awful.

"Reiner! Look at what you have done? Let Dr. Herbert go quickly!" The townspeople's yelling filled Reiner's ears. "Doctor Herbert has forgiven you, as long as you put down the knife, we will let you go!"

An elderly man stepped forward, persuading.

Reiner's hands were trembling, and he found that he couldn't control his hands at all, and an inexplicable strange feeling surged through his body, as if something had penetrated into his abdominal cavity.

Reiner glanced down from the corner of his eye.

It wasn't until this time that he realized that there was a wriggling mass of black substance in Dr. Herbert's lower back that had penetrated into his abdomen at this moment.

Not even John, who was standing next to him, noticed.

Reiner wants to call John.

But until now, he found that he couldn't even control his voice.

The body is completely out of his control.

It turned out that everything just now.
Reiner's pupils continued to dilate.

Fear filled his brain.

Extreme unease exacerbated his altered state.

"Everyone, don't get too close, don't force Reiner, he is a kind person, I believe he won't do anything to me." Herbert smiled and waved his hands, signaling everyone not to approach.

The people who gathered around dispersed a little, obviously they still believed in Herbert's words.

John stood aside, frowning.

Lena's state is too weird.

This strange yet familiar feeling reminded John of an unbearable memory he once had.

When the consciousness existed in the nameless village, when he was controlled by the demon named Dani, his situation seemed to be somewhat similar to that of Reiner.

Is it
John narrowed his eyes.

"Lena, we can leave now."

John whispered, Reiner stiffened his neck, turned his head, and showed him an ugly smile. The next second, the knife in Reiner's hand wiped Herbert's neck under the eyes of everyone. .

"Reiner, run quickly!" The moment Dr. Herbert fell to the ground, he suddenly turned around and pushed Reiner.

A mass of black matter burrowed into his sleeve in an area that only Reiner and Herbert could see. At this moment, his body fell to the ground, already exhaling a lot and taking in less.

Reiner's legs trembled, and he fell into a state of extreme anxiety and panic.

John frowned, grabbed Reiner's body, and ran towards the forest.

The townspeople of the clearance team were still shocked by the scene in front of them.

It wasn't until the elderly man at the head came back to his senses and rushed to the fallen Herbert to cry, that the crowd changed from shock to extreme anger.

"Get Lena!"

"He killed Dr. Herbert!!!"

"Damn it! Don't let the two of them go!!!"

"Whooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

In a dark, gloomy forest.

John dragged Rainer to a bush where he could hide.

"What happened just now?"

John was already drenched at the moment, and his body was stained with a lot of fallen leaves and weeds. He frowned and looked at Reiner.

Reiner's body trembled, his face was pale, and he didn't say a word.

"Damn it! We were fooled by that disgusting doctor!!!" John punched the tree beside him angrily.

"I don't know, it seems that something controls me. I. See" Reiner hugged his head, his pupils kept shrinking, he couldn't believe that it was something he would do.

Especially under that piercing smile, he actually wiped Dr. Herbert's neck with his hands.

This kind of thing is simply not something he would do.

"I'm not sure if my guess is right, but that Herbert feels very strange to me. There seems to be another creature in him."

John narrowed his eyes, carefully recalling what had just happened.

"Hurry up!!!"

"Wow woof woof!!!"

The voices of the angry confiscation team and hounds came from a distance.

Lena's body continued to tremble.

"Come on!"

John gave Reiner a hand, beckoning him to follow him.

"No no. I don't want to just go away without any explanation. Dr. Herbert's death. I...I don't want everyone to think that I killed Dr. Herbert. I will stay here and explain to them."

Reiner rejected John, he sat on the ground, his brain was in an inexplicable tremor, he didn't know why he did it, but if he didn't do some things, he might never have another chance.

"You idiot, you will die if you stay here!"

John punched Reiner in the face, hammering him to the ground.

"If you want to die, then you stay here!"

Without looking at Rainer, John turned around and walked into the bushes beside him.

Reiner got up from the ground, wiped off the filth from the corners of his mouth, and sat on the ground alone, holding his knees with his hands, curling his head, staring blankly at the ground, tears in the corners of his eyes covered by the rain.

In the bushes at the side, John, who was hiding among them, showed a pair of helpless eyes, looked at Reiner's state, and sighed silently.

He clenched the gun in his hand and waited silently.

Outside the forest, on a muddy trail.

The old man was sorting out Dr. Herbert's belongings. After all the clearance team left, only he and Dr. Herbert were left here.

The old man's eyes were full of greed.

He looked at the money bag in his hand.

He didn't realize that Dr. Herbert, who was lying on the ground, was standing behind him at the moment, watching him quietly.

"Greedy people will be judged by the gods, and death will give you purification."

The murmur of ancient words awakens the old man in his greed.

He opened his eyes wide, and looked at Dr. Herbert who was looking at him with tender eyes in fear.

In the next second, countless black substances like asphalt sludge completely swallowed him up.

Herbert looked at the forest and shook his head helplessly.

"Young people nowadays, why are they so anxious about doing things?"

"Oh? Who are you talking about in a hurry?"

A silver-white M500 revolver exuding a strange luster was placed next to Herbert's head, and low-pitched words rang out behind Herbert.
