Eve looked at the coin in front of her. She had never seen such a currency. She didn’t know if it was the currency of a certain country or a simple commemorative coin. Her expression was a little flustered, but Eve soon calmed down, her eyes sharp like a sword blade. .
The blood of the Phoenix family bleeds in her body, like a spiritual dependence. Eve knows very clearly that she cannot be afraid. She is the person destined to appear in the Hall of That Show, the female Duke of undying bird, and it is not the end yet. .
“May I?”
Eve picked up the coin and asked Lorenzo. This is a gamble between him and Saab. She is a bit like a croupier now.
Lorenzo nodded, then said to Saab.
“There is no psychological warfare, no cheating, no tricks that can be overridden. This is pure luck, I like it.”
“That’s very good.”
Saab nodded, too, happy that Lorenzo could agree to this seemingly absurd bet.
“One side is a shield, the other is a battle axe.”
“I choose shield.” Lorenzo said directly, without looking at Eve, he kept staring at Saab.
“This coin should be old, I remember it is a currency that has been abandoned.”
“Yes, Viking Kingdom Norbito issued the currency more than ten years ago. You also know that Viking made its fortune as a pirate. There are various currencies. This can be regarded as the first unified Viking currency, but it is rarely seen on the market now. , Mostly in the hands of those collectors.”
Saab said with a little nostalgia. While he said that, Eve tossed the coin in his hand. It flew up in the air, like a silver spirit under the rays of light.
“It should make sense to you, do you miss the things from your hometown? You don’t look like a collector, you won’t stay for so long, right”
The so-called seeing things and feelings probably means this, just like those soldiers who retreat from the battlefield still regularly look at their medals of honor.
“I don’t miss that World of Ice and Snow place. That ghost place was a mistake when it was born. I kept it just because it was the first thing I won at the gaming table. I lost my first place for it. One finger, it is my lucky coin.”
Saab rubbed his left hand as he spoke. It was supposed to be his little finger, but now it was empty, except for a scar left because the wound was not treated properly.
“I still had 4 fingers at the time. I won the bastard, but he was also a coward, so I killed him. It seemed like my first murder. It feels really good to take fate in my own hands. “
There was excitement in the words, and the deformed experience before him was far more Legendary than imagined.
The coin fell and the girl quickly caught it with her hand, and then placed it on the table. This was a child-like game, but now it is extremely heavy.
“Uncover it.”
Hearing Lorenzo’s words, Eve slowly lifted his hand. The battle axe was on it, and Lorenzo lost.
“Who are you?”
Saab rubbed his scar, his eyes full of desire, as if it really was what he wanted to know.
“Lorenzo Holmes, a detective.”
Lorenzo directly replied, but Saab shook the head vigorously, seemingly not satisfied with this answer.
“What I want to know is who you were before you came to Old Turin.”
Like Burlau, he was full of curiosity about the past of this mysterious detective.
After hesitating for a few seconds, Lorenzo said.
“Pastor.”
Even Eve on the side is a little confused. I am afraid that no one can associate this mental illness bastard with Gao Jie pastor.
“A pastor? A pastor of Evangelion Church?”
Pastor is not a rare profession. 100 years ago, the owner of the world was Holy Gospel Papal State. They relied on the doctrine to distribute countless pastors to various countries, and secretly controlled the countries in the name of faith. With the rise of steam technology, the so-called faith has fallen to the bottom, and fire and airship have freed everyone from the shackles of faith.
Saab said and laughed without further questioning, and then said.
“This time I bet on Tomahawk.”
So Eve tossed the coin. It rose and fell in the air. Neither of them looked at the flip in the air. They stared at each other closely, with a calm tone, but still with swords drawn and bows bent inside. At this time, the tomahawk is still up, and Saab won again.
“Why did you come to Old Turin?”
“Because this is Old Turin. The city of world technology cream of the crop, the city of hope, the city of steam, the roaring machine will abandon the old era forever.
People in Florence say this is a good place. Compared with illusory beliefs, gold is hidden everywhere, opportunities and wealth are everywhere. It is open to everyone, and you will have a new life as long as you come here. “
Lorenzo said lightly, calmly like telling a story that has nothing to do with him.
“Yes, the power of the church is getting less and less. In order to consolidate the rule, those kings relied on firecrackers to destroy one church after another. It is not 100 years ago. At that time, you pastors could comfortably live a lifetime only by collecting donations. That’s it.”
It seems that Lorenzo is just a gold digger who came in the name of Old Turin, which Saab finds a bit ridiculous.
“Really didn’t expect, an executioner like you used to be a pastor, aren’t you afraid of Divine Punishment?”
There are countless people who died in the red river tragedy. Even the butcher will feel terrified by the cruel methods, and all this comes from the detective who was the pastor.
“If Divine Punishment really exists, I’m afraid you will have been split into a fire sea by Thunderbolt.”
The singing band stopped long ago. They also inhaled the hallucinogen, their faces twisted and hugged together and danced strangely, and the same was true on the dance floor inside. People tore their clothes and skin, and dozens of blood stains appeared on their white bodies. His wound, like a wild beast, emits meaningless roars and whispers, and human civilization is completely abandoned.
“Maybe the gods are just waiting for us to settle after our death? This time you first.”
“It’s still a shield.”
“Why did you choose the shield? You have lost twice.” Saab puzzled.
“You beat me twice, so you have less luck than me. Fortunately, Goddess doesn’t favor anyone. Now she will let me win it back.” He was confident.
Eve lifted his hand, it seemed like Lorenzo said it was a shield this time, he won.
“What exactly is that shipment?”
This is what Lorenzo needs to know the most at this moment, that batch of mysterious goods, everything tonight is due to it.
“Sacred Coffin, it is said that the group of people dug it out from a shipwreck in the ice sea. Many people have died for this thing.”
“Sacred Coffin? What is that?”
Lorenzo had never heard of such a thing, even in theology there is no such vocabulary.
“I do not know either.”
Saab said frankly, “It’s like a certain pronoun, like the gods in Evangelion Church. Do you know what it is? Is it a person or a thing, or something else, just like Holy Grail in the doctrine, just A certain pronoun represents something that cannot be said.”
“Humans cannot describe something like that, so they can only call it a sacred and noble name.”
As if something had been touched, Lorenzo noticed a little weirdness.
The coin was tossed again, flipped and then fell.
“Shield or battle axe.”
Eve asked this time, because neither of the two spoke first.
“shield.”
Saab said suddenly, this time he chose Lorenzo’s shield.
Uncovering the coin, as Lorenzo said, fortunately Goddess is not partial to any one person. It was Tomahawk Lorenzo who won again.
But this time Lorenzo not at all rushed to ask questions, but picked up his pocket watch and looked at the time.
“Are you doing something next?”
It is late at night, even if something happens, it will be after dawn, and there is still a long time before dawn. Saab is a little curious about what Lorenzo is waiting for.
“Yeah, so this will be my last question.”
“This kind of winning and leaving is not a good thing.” Saab’s eyes are slightly cold. The most taboo thing at the gambling table is this kind of thing. If you win, you run away. Although the gambler is not a good thing, it can be regarded as a gambler. The villain.
“Please forgive me, there is no way.”
Lorenzo said that he stood up and walked to the edge of the high platform. The location here is really good. With all the income, the initial prosperity is gone. Under the hall is an embarrassed body. Now the hallucinogen has been completely paralyzed. Because of their nerves, they didn’t even have the strength to stand this time, lying on the carpet, their eyes were in confusion.
The aloof and remote nobles are like humble beggars, stripped of their glory and dignity like the sad livestock in the fence.
“What do you usually do with these people?”
“Is this a question of stakes?”
“Of course not, I’m just curious…you will still satisfy me with this curiosity, right.”
Saying that Lorenzo showed a kind smile at Saab, as if he was really curious.
“It’s very simple. We will send our guests to luxurious hotels in the inner city. They will wake up on the soft and clean bed after they fade away. Outside is the beautiful world of Old Turin, and last night’s Everything is like a dream bubble.”
“It’s a beautiful end, isn’t it?”
“Sounds really good.”
Lorenzo recognized it as nodded, and then asked the last question.
“What about those people? The crew on the Silverfish Ship, they transported Sacred Coffin, and the people who stopped me that day, where are they?”
This is Lorenzo’s last question. He hopes to get an answer. Just like before, Saab didn’t conceal the slightest bit of concealment. Lorenzo almost thought he was his own.
“They are all dead, even if they are not dead, they are almost dead.”
Saab said directly.
“All dead?”
Lorenzo couldn’t believe it, then as if realizing something, his pupils tightened, he asked.
“Are you killing them?”
