The red moon returns

Chapter 83 Reinforcements (two in one)

boom.

Lynch and Officer Natalie hugged each other and fell heavily to the ground. They rolled over and hit the wall before stopping.

Lynch looked at his hands for the first time and found that they were empty. The little Janet he was holding in his arms had disappeared. This made Lynch feel a little sad. Maybe no matter what he did in his memories, it would not bring any impact to the present world. come any changes.

A hand stretched out from beside him. Officer Natalie was already protecting Lynch and patted his shoulder gently.

"At least we successfully suppressed the out-of-control strange objects and successfully returned to the living world."

Only then did Lynch realize that he had returned to the secret room of Grant Screw Factory, and everything was the same as when he left. It's just that the five executives who were gathered around the strange object by him just now are no longer there.

It was the first time that he personally sent someone to a dead end, but Lynch didn't feel much guilt. In his opinion, these people who had no bottom line in order to make money were not worthy of sympathy, and they were the ones who caused the trouble. It was right for them to solve it themselves. It was a matter of course that they could only blame themselves if they died in the memories of strange objects.

"They personally sent hundreds of people in, and the fear of those hundreds of people formed overseer monsters, and then those overseer monsters hung them on street lamps. Oh, in the mysterious world, the causal relationship is always so twisted and weird. But In fact, there is no need to find so many reasons, just say that they deserve it, and it will be an advantage for them to die like this."

The police officer punched Lynch gently on the head and pulled him up. Then she turned to the set plate and pulled out the blood pool in the center.

This time he encountered no resistance and unplugged the set smoothly. At the same time, Lynch felt an invisible pressure quickly dissipate, and the surroundings completely returned to calm.

"But it's a bit strange that we still remember them." Lynch said puzzledly, "Shouldn't they be forgotten like those workers?"

"They were not swallowed in the normal way, and they have not completed the transformation ceremony of the blood pool. They will probably not be forgotten like those workers." The police officer made a guess based on past experience, but the hand holding the blood pool scene Suddenly, he said, "If this is really the case, after completely containing the strange objects, will they..."

Before he finished speaking, a burst of exclamation came from outside the secret passage, and then it became noisy outside, as if more and more people were gathering.

Realizing that something was wrong, Lynch hesitated for a moment, then took off his Ranger uniform and covered it on the set plate to cover it up, and then quickly ran out of the secret passage with the police officer.

A large number of workers had gathered outside the small building. The expressions of these people were obviously much more alert. They formed a group with panic faces and pointed in one direction. The supervisors did not scold the workers for being lazy, but instead gathered together. Some even had their legs shaking in fear.

Because the five senior executives who had always been in high positions were lying outside the small building, exuding a disgusting stench.

It can be seen from a long distance that the five people have turned into corpses. They are like food that has been chewed and spit out. Their bodies are twisted into a ball of rotten meat, and the white bones turn from dark red to The rotten flesh was revealed, shocking the people around him.

The body was indeed spit out.

Lin Qi suddenly felt a glimmer of hope in his heart. If these people were spit out before completing the transformation, what about little Janet?
  She has not been completely transformed. Could it be that the remaining soul has also been spit out, but we cannot see the state of the soul, or has it woken up directly in the body?
  For a moment, Lynch wanted to run to Mrs. Scott's house immediately to see her. This was his first commission, and it was an innocent little girl. Lynch still hoped to save her.

But after looking at the situation in front of me, let's deal with the problem here first. No matter what, we can't make life easier for Grant behind the scenes. Even if we can't destroy his factory, we must at least take away his rare items. The Watcher is not concerned with politics. If the influence makes it difficult for them to come forward, then give them the excuse.

After making up his mind, Lynch grinned at the police officer and made a gesture to look at me, then strode out of the small building.

"What's going on... Several gentlemen are dead... The corpses appeared out of thin air... The range has not really expanded... Chi Chi Chi Gu Gu Chi Chi Chi Gu Gu."

Whether they are supervisors or workers, more and more people gather together and the noise becomes louder and louder.

"Sir, sir."

Seeing Officer Lynch and Officer Natalie coming out, the three supervisors who were at the gate immediately ran forward with joyful faces. This time they deliberately avoided Lynch and said to Officer Natalie with a smile:
  "Sir, what's going on? Gentlemen, what's going on..."

"There's a problem, everyone, listen up. We are police officers from the special department of the Hall of Order, Rangers, specially here to deal with factory accidents. You, go and close the factory door. From now on, no one can do anything without our order. People are not allowed to leave. If the problems here are not solved, everyone will die. There is no point in running away."

Lin Qi's face was as gloomy as if it was about to drip. He pointed at one of the overseers guarding the door, and then said in a solemn tone to the overseer who had been pointed at by him with a gun:

"I can't explain what happened now, but everyone, including those of us, will soon become the same as Mr. Lika. You should understand what I'm talking about. Very good, now that you know the problem Seriousness, now you choose two people to accompany you and ride our carriage together to call the police. Not to the Hall of Order, but to the agency that specializes in handling these matters. The coachman knows the address. Just say that there is a very dangerous situation here. Five senior executives have been killed, and the workers are in chaos. Production cannot be maintained. It is urgent for officials to solve the problem and resume production. Go now, the sooner the better. We will stay here and wait for reinforcements. As long as they are dispatched, everything will be fine. Get better.”

The last few words were raised loud enough to be heard by all the workmen and overseers present, while a wink was given to the coachman who had been brought from the Scarecrow Club.

Although the coachman was just an ordinary person, he was also a supernumerary hunter of the watch. He immediately understood and called the overseer to get on the coach quickly.

With Frank's previous manager proving his identity, and the order being reasonable, the panicked supervisor didn't doubt Lynch's words at all. When he heard that this could save his life, he immediately jumped on the carriage and ran away from the factory.

Seeing the supervisors being so cooperative, Lin Qi suppressed the corners of his mouth that wanted to curl up, and arranged for the supervisors to keep an eye on the door. No one could be allowed to leave. Leaving would be tantamount to death. He made sure that everyone was frightened and no one would run out. After delivering the letter to Grant, he felt relieved and guarded the entrance to the secret passage with Officer Natalie, keeping an eye on the strange objects inside.

For such a dangerous thing, even if it is only a fear-level strange object, we cannot let down our guard and we must not let it cause problems.

Faster than expected, about forty minutes later, noisy voices were heard outside again. Officers Lynch and Natalie looked at each other and smiled, walked out of the secret passage and looked outside, and then they were startled.

There were many carriages coming outside.

There were special carriages from the watchmen, police carriages from the Hall of Order, and many inexplicable civilian carriages. There were twenty or thirty vehicles in total, and the door of the small building was packed with people.

As soon as the car door opened and the first person jumped out, Lynch discovered that it was Mr. V who was leading the team in person. He was also wearing a blue trench coat of the Watchers standard, with a sword embedded with gems hanging on his waist. Intimidating momentum.

When Mr. V landed, he looked around and saw Lynch and Natalie in the small building at a glance. He raised his hat and bowed to them, then tapped his cane lightly.

Following this action, the doors of the carriages behind them opened simultaneously, and people filed out one after another.

There was a large group of familiar faces, whether they were soul-shifters or ordinary people, all wearing dark blue windbreakers, which was the symbol of the Watchers. The reinforcements from the Scarecrow Club’s mysterious hunters have finally arrived.

More than forty people jumped out one after another, and almost all the scarecrows came out. They immediately performed their duties as soon as they got off the car. Some commanded the blue uniforms of the Hall of Order at the back to maintain the order of the workers and supervisors, and some surrounded the people on the ground. The five corpses were surveyed in detail, methodically and orderly.

The civilian carriages following at the end also made some movement, and a group of ordinary people wearing loose casual jackets got out of the carriage first. Lynch was wondering about the identities of these people when he saw these people unloading a lot of equipment from the carriages.

A tripod, a large wooden frame, a thick black cloth, and a spotlight as big as a human head.

As soon as the bloated camera was set up, the spotlights began to click and flash.

Lynch sighed softly in admiration. This V was really cautious and actually called so many reporters. Their nature would be determined as soon as they came. Speaker Grant would really be in trouble now.

"Sure enough, the deceased were all senior managers of the factory. There is no doubt that this was an attack on the Speaker's industry. There are dangerous items that caused their deaths. They must be found and disposed of before the factory can resume normal production. In order To ensure the safety of all journalists, please do not wander around for the time being and move around under the accompaniment of professionals until we dispose of the dangerous items and then lift the restrictions. I need to start working right away, so I'll excuse you."

V casually reassured the reporters for a few words, and then walked into the small building with a few soul-shifting watchmen. As soon as they entered the door, eight blue windbreakers looked at the two people waiting at the door neatly and deeply. Bow deeply.

On the other hand, Officers Lynch and Natalie were a little confused. They didn't know what was going on for a while, until Mr. V stepped forward and gently patted their shoulders.

"In order to avenge the tragic deaths of hundreds of innocent people, you two went into danger alone, even at the expense of making enemies of people in power like Speaker Grant. You did what we all wanted to do but couldn't do, and you created enough for us. Everyone is very grateful to you for stepping in. I also have to give you a compliment, a job well done."

Lin Qi coughed dryly, blushed slightly, looked around for a long time, and then clumsily changed the subject: "Actually, the problem of strange objects has been solved, why did you send so many people, and even reporters were invited."

"These supports are not for dealing with strange objects, but for Grant. According to the information you provided, Grant attaches great importance to this place. With his inhumane performance, I am worried that if you have a head-on conflict with him, what will he do? It will be bad for you if something crazy happens. So I gathered all the hunters who have not gone out in advance. Once we have to confront each other, we have enough power to scare them and prevent him from having adventurous ideas at the root. The reporter is also me I just made a random excuse to invite you here. I just wanted to add a layer of security, but I didn’t expect that your call to the police came by such a coincidence."

Seeing that Lin Qi was a little moved, Mr. V chuckled softly:

"There's no need to thank me. If we can't make our collaborators feel comfortable working together, then who will dare to cooperate with us as Watchmen in the future? This is also an emotional investment for future cooperation, hahaha, so you're welcome. As long as we can If the problem is properly solved and no more innocent victims occur, everyone will feel it is worth it."

"Ha, I understand." Lin Qi laughed and nodded in agreement, "The strange object is down there and has been re-contained. What should I do with it next?"

"Although this kind of rare item is of a very low level, it can cause death when used and is not suitable to be left in the hands of ordinary people. After our watchers collect it, it will be sent to the reception center in the capital Nolin for centralized storage, where there is sufficient power to ensure Rare objects will not be robbed, we... huh?"

Before the two of them could say a few words, they noticed that several more carriages were driving into the factory, making the front of the small building even more crowded.

Before the car stopped, a man had already jumped out of the carriage, staggered a few steps, and walked towards the small building.

As expected, Speaker Grant came right away, and he came very quickly.

And just behind him, Walker of the Rangers jumped out of the carriage with two of his men, and there were two very familiar people. Lynch thought for a while before recalling that they were two detectives from the Hall of Order whom he had met before. Long, two scapegoats who relied on Lynch to escape disaster.

As soon as these people took two steps, they saw five mutilated and strange corpses on the ground. Speaker Grant immediately covered his mouth and his face became extremely ugly. He was still hesitating whether to drive away the reporters who were taking pictures or go to the small building to stop the watchmen from destroying it, when he saw Mr. V walking out with a group of people, followed by several people carrying a set tray.

"Sure enough, gentlemen reporters, as we expected, someone with malicious intentions dropped extremely dangerous items into the Speaker's factory, resulting in the tragic death of five gentlemen. Oh, the Speaker is here too." Mr. V He came up with a smile and said leisurely, "Someone put this set plate in. This thing will kill an employee in the factory every day. Fortunately, the employees in your factory reported it in time, otherwise it would have caused a tragedy. No. I know who hates you so much and actually uses this method to harm you. By the way, this thing is not from your factory, you must have never seen it."

"When, of course."

Speaker Grant's expression was distorted with anger, but in front of so many reporters, he had to disassociate himself on the spot and make his choice as cleanly as possible, so no matter how angry he was, he could only hold it in and try his best to smile:

"Such a vicious thing definitely doesn't come from the factory, and I've never seen it before."

"You must understand clearly that our royal institution and the city council have always had a close relationship. If your personal belongings were inadvertently seized, it would be a disgrace to His Majesty Rudolf's trust. Therefore, this is really not your factory. s things?"

"real."

The Speaker felt a sharp pain in his chest and his wig was about to fall off. He gritted his teeth and forced out an answer. The extremely stiff smile on his face was faithfully recorded by the cameras around him.

"Then we will handle it according to the process. Don't worry, Mr. Speaker, we will handle it properly. Your factory is now safe and can resume work at any time." Mr. V smiled, "You don't need to thank us. Protect everyone. The safety of our citizens is our responsibility and we are here to help.”

This V is really annoying.

Lin Qi secretly smiled and disappeared, drifting away from the crowd.

He had been operating as a ranger today, and his true identity might not have been exposed yet, so he decided that it would be better to leave the public confrontation to attract hatred to someone like V. He would just quietly make a fortune behind his back.

Although the Watcher did not entrust him with the work, but he asked the Watcher for help, but considering the danger of this matter, Lynch believed that V would be able to satisfy him as a person, so he asked him to go to the club tomorrow. .

Therefore, Lynch was relieved and secretly admired Grant's tearless expression for a while. This person has become the third most annoying person since Lynch's time travel based on his performance. Apart from the dead Randall and the undead mastermind, he is the one, so Lynch really wants to see more of Grant who is almost blown away but can't The way he looks like he's having an attack would really make him mad to death.

However, he said goodbye to the police officer for the time being and left in a hurry.

Although there were still a few hours before the night invitation, he was anxious to go back to the King's District to see if little Janet was awake. It would be great if suppressing the strange objects could help the little girl return to normal.

With such expectations, Lynch quietly left the factory and returned to the cobweb-like alley next to Charles Square with anxiety.
