Chapter 34 Changes! (please collect ~ ask for monthly ticket ~ ask for recommendation~)

That guy? !

Goethe’s eyes narrowed immediately.

There are many people who can be called that guy by Swart, but there is only one ‘that guy’ that can be called by Swart – before in No. 32, Little Durian Street, the early bird catches the bastard of the worm.

Goethe never minds a fight.

Goethe is more familiar with death.

The life in his hometown has already made him used to it.

But!

Whether it’s fighting, or death, there’s one thing Goethe never touches.

That is: spoíls of war!

Because that’s what he gained after experiencing the battle and facing the danger of death!

He deserves it!

When I was in my hometown, someone had a crooked mind.

But they were all dealt with by him.

Now there is another such person.

Goethe doesn’t mind telling those around him in the same way what happens if he moves his spoíls of war.

As for the spoíls of war, it was not obtained by hand, but given by Morey?

Morey gave it all, so of course it was his!

So, after all, that bastard stole his stuff!

“Where?”

Goethe solemnly asked.

“‘Old Bill’s Watch Shop’, that guy went to Old Bill’s to sell the loot an hour ago, and was taken by Old Bill’s guys – last night, I told what I knew Old Bill is one of them, that guy is walking right into a trap!”

Swart said excitedly.

At the end, he also waved his fist.

Then, he looked at Goethe eagerly, as if he was coming to praise me.

And Goethe frowned.

Something is not quite right.

He personally inspected the scene last night.

The other party is quite cautious, even, cautious enough to overcome greed.

A person who is so cautious will just find a place to ship the goods directly when the situation is unclear?

And, just happened to find a channel to connect with Swart?

Goethe smells conspiracy.

“Old Bill told you personally?”

Goethe asked.

“Yes, a message from one of Old Bill’s buddies.”

“What, is there a problem?”

Swart said it truthfully, and then, asked softly.

Swart, who can become a sheriff, may not be able to be on the table in terms of ability, but he is quite sensitive to danger, especially after working with Goethe, the sheriff can’t wait to sleep even if he sleeps. Eye.

“What kind of man is old Bill?”

Goethe asked instead.

“What kind of people can be?”

“People like them naturally look to money.”

“However, most At the time, I was quite self-disciplined, and I have been working with me for a long time, should, maybe… won’t betray me?”

Swart smiled dryly, his face a little unconfident.

“Go back.”

Goethe pondered for two seconds before saying.

“Not going to Old Bill’s?”

Swart asked.

“Go.”

“Before I go, though, I need to get an ‘insurance’.”

Goethe said.

……

The night is getting deeper and deeper.

The Old Bill Watches had closed two hours earlier.

However, there are lights in the store.

The two-story building opposite has already turned off the lights.

In the dark room, Goethe sat on the sofa with his eyes closed, while Swart stood behind the curtains, opened a slit, and looked at the watch shop across the road.

“Nothing unusual, except that ten minutes ago, Old Bill and his apprentice walked around the store and took some food.”

Swart reported what he saw .

“en. “

Goethe replied softly, not even opening his eyes.

“Goethe, you’re not worried at all?”

“Aren’t you afraid that you guessed wrong?”

Swart asked curiously.

Although it’s not the first time to work with Goethe, but this time Goethe gives Swart a more relaxed feeling.

“If I guess wrong, it’s a good thing for us now.”

“Even…”

“I can’t ask for it.”

Swart scratched his head at Goethe’s words.

Clearly, the sheriff didn’t understand what Goethe meant.

And Goethe didn’t explain too much.

Because, Goethe, who looks relaxed now, is extremely vigilant on the inside.

As he said, he wished he had guessed wrong.

If his guess is correct, it only proves one thing: ‘Mist Murderer’ or ‘Flesh Church’ are more powerful in Luster than he thought!

That’s right!

It’s ‘Mist Murderer’ or ‘Flesh Church’!

Goethe immediately thought of his only two enemies in Luster after discovering the anomaly of ‘that guy’.

The ‘that guy’ who should have been cautious suddenly appeared, and Goethe couldn’t think of a second possibility other than to ‘take the bait’ on him.

Before last night, ‘that guy’ had nothing to do with ‘Mist Murderer’, ‘Flesh Church’, or the other party’s behavior was completely inexplicable.

But in less than a day, ‘that guy’ completely obeyed ‘Mist Murderer’ and ‘Flesh Church’, willing to be the bait.

Whether it is coercion or inducement.

There was something hidden in it that really surprised Goethe.

You know, Luster’s population is not as high as that of the capital Bord, but there are 300,000!

In a city of 300,000 people, finding someone is not an easy task.

But ‘Mist Murderer’, ‘Flesh Church’ did it.

And, in less than a day, it was done.

It would be even more surprising if it were the ‘Flesh Church’.

Because it’s only been one day since he became feud with ‘Flesh Church’.

What does this mean?

Goethe knows that.

‘Mist Murderer’, ‘Flesh Church’ must have an intricate web of intelligence in Luster.

This intelligence network touches almost every aspect of Luster.

But before, they didn’t.

Because, if anything, he couldn’t have had the previous ‘counterattack’ at all, and would have already died without a burial site.

Therefore, the other party obtained such an intelligence network in a short period of time.

Almost subconsciously, Goethe thought of the mysterious Boss of the Pine Nut Hotel.

The other party is in line with his guess.

And, last night, he was also attacked at the Pine Nut Hotel.

Twice!

Just…

Why did the other party do this?

He and each other are of a lacking hatred and enmity.

As for leading the attackers there?

That is not a bad thing for the other party, as long as it is used well, it is a good thing.

In addition, he has a close relationship with the official transcendent person in charge.

Even, he already has an official identity.

Based on this premise, it is impossible for the other party to cooperate with ‘Mist Murderer’ and ‘Flesh Church’.

Unless ‘Mist Murderer’ and ‘Flesh Church’ give each other something they can’t refuse – something they will get even if they throw away everything now.

“What would that be?”

Goethe was puzzled.

While Goethe was still thinking about it, Swart whispered, “Old Bill is out! There are people! There are people behind him! Someone is holding Old Bill hostage!”

Goethe walked quickly to the front of the window and opened the corner of the curtain.

Immediately, he saw a hair grey-white man in black overalls and a brown burlap shirt walking out in front of the ‘Old Bill’s Watch Shop’ across the road.

According to Swart’s description, this is old Bill.

Behind the other party, there was a man in a cloak whose face could not be seen clearly.

This man completely hides himself behind old Bill, and it’s hard for Goethe and Swart to even spot each other if they’re not on the second floor.

However, now that it is discovered, everything becomes easier.

“Shoot.”

Goethe said.

Swart immediately lights the candles in the room.

Even through the curtains, such rays of light can still be seen, especially the gaps of the curtains, which are even brighter.

Next moment, the patrolmen who were squatting in the vicinity stretched out their guns and pulled the trigger directly——

peng~ peng~ peng~ .

Amidst the series of gunshots, the man whose face could not be seen, including the old Bill in front of him, all fell to the ground.
