Chapter 71 Ivan's Fear

Hearing Ross's warning, Armitage suddenly regained his senses and remembered his other identity. He took a deep breath, suppressed his inner curiosity, and sighed with the last bit of warning about Ross in his heart: "Thank you very much. Reminder, I shouldn't ask so much."

The light in Ross's eyes flowed, and from this sentence he could be completely sure that this Dr. Armitage really belonged to an organization related to transcendence.

Otherwise, with his normal personality, he might be a little hesitant at this time, but he still couldn't suppress his curiosity about knowledge.

But he completely refused, which means that he still has some special vigilance and scruples about himself, which prevents him from having too much contact with himself.

Immediately, Ross did not continue to say more, and directly changed the subject to chat with him first.

He doesn't need Dr. Armitage to join directly now. This kind of talent is best to be lured through subtleties. Gradually falling in is the most perfect.

The two talked for about two hours. At 04:30 in the afternoon, Ross left the library with the materials with a satisfied smile on his face.

For the next ten days or so, the entire city of Arkham seemed to be engulfed in a calm to terrifying development.

Ross is still working hard every day, and the renovation of the slum street has officially started.

This reconstruction is very thorough, the ground is completely excavated, and the drainage system, gas system and water supply system of this slum street need to be reorganized.

Such a thorough project immediately made the poor people who occupy [-]% of the population of the entire central area grateful, and could not wait to worship this great mayor directly as a god.

Ross has been working day and night with super high efficiency. In the past ten days, he has completely completed the public ownership and adaptation of the Rhodes Chamber of Commerce, and the relevant key personnel are also in place.

At the same time, the messy public security problems in the central area are also under the tremendous efforts of the police. In less than a month, the crime rate has become the second-lowest area.

The prosperity of the central area does not mean that other areas are as stable as the central area.

In the recent period of time, there have been some very serious wounding incidents in the North District and the East District, and there have even been occasional explosions, which have caused panic in the two places.

Ivan is one of them, and is even more frightened than everyone else, because two of the explosions are related to him.

"Damn it! Those lunatics! Lunatics!" In the early morning, Ivan knelt on the ground with a pale face, his head kept hitting the wall, and he murmured in a very bad state.

Recently, he has been out at night, investigating the batch of looted medicines in the Eastern District. Among them, he has also fought against the pirates of the Tide Pirates several times, and he was almost caught twice.

Although he felt that he had gradually approached the truth, he was the first to feel that his spirit was a little unsustainable.

Those crazy Innsmouth people, they would turn back into that hideous and horribly disgusting look at night, and it would make him nauseous just to get close.

Those monsters were extremely fierce and crazy, especially two times when he hid in the shadows. When he turned around and saw that pale and ferocious face, he was so frightened that his hair exploded and his hands and feet were cold.

However, the most important thing is that in the past ten days, three investigators have died tragically at their hands.

And these tragically dead guys can't even get the whole body to be buried. They have a special method to turn the bodies of their companions into dog food, and the dogs that eat those dog food will get weird evolution and become crazy.

Looking down at his left arm, there is a wound with deep visible bone on his left forearm, which looks like it was bitten by some kind of monster with ferocious teeth.

At this time, yellow pus continued to flow out of the pale flesh. Although the blood had stopped overnight, it did not mean any healing.

And the most important thing is that the common medicines for some bacteria in this wound are completely useless.

At this time, centered on those hideous bite wounds, the pale flesh was gradually spreading, and even in the center of the wound, the completely festering rotten flesh could be faintly seen, and a disgusting smell could be smelled just by getting closer.

"Damn! Damn! It's only one step away! Only one step away!" Ivan didn't dare to go to the hospital. Those monsters were very powerful. After so many contacts, they already knew themselves very well, and even started to carry out all day's manhunt.

"Boom boom boom!"

Suddenly, there was a knock on his door.

This very ordinary knock on the door made Ivan's clothes on the back soaked with sweat in an instant, and his heart couldn't help beating faster.

"Who?" Ivan asked, trying to keep his voice normal.

A steady voice came from outside the door: "Police, I need your assistance in the investigation."

Hearing this, Ivan suddenly thought of the policemen who were called monsters in the central area, and hurriedly tied his arms, Ivan walked over and carefully opened the door, revealing a gap.

Through the gap, he saw a burly police officer in a police uniform with bronze skin.

He knew this policeman, and he was a well-known Jike detective in the central area today.

"Officer, what's the matter?" Ivan asked in a lazy tone, which was more suitable for his current face.

Gek asked: "Last night, there was a shootout in Derby Street, and then the gunmen ran around here, did you see that?"

Ivan shook his head and said, "Sorry, officer, I haven't been very well these past two days, I slept very hard, and I didn't even hear the sound of gunshots."

Jik lowered his head and stared at Ivan's face. After a few seconds of silence, he said, "Okay, pay attention to your body."

When you're done, turn around and leave.

Watching the oppressive police officer leave, Ivan locked the door with a deep sigh of relief: "This guy is at least level [-]!"

"The streets are full of [-]th-level police officers? What the hell is this place!" Ivan cursed, reassuring himself that he wanted to leave.

"Last night's shootout? This North District is the site of the Redemption Society. The people making trouble here are probably the witches from the Forbidden Gate. Stay away from me!"

…………

In the offices of the City Hall in the central district.

Darryl Hui reported: "The renovation of the slums has been very smooth, the integration of the core industries in the central area has been completed, and the salary adjustment and classification of public officials have begun to be officially implemented."

Ross nodded with satisfaction: "Very good, Darryl."

Darryl went on to report: "The mayor, the battle between the Forbidden Gate and the Redemption Society is getting more and more intense. Now the whole North District is panicking, are we really not going to do it?"

Ross said with a smile: "Of course I won't give up my lovely citizens, but we need a suitable opportunity now, and this time I go in, I don't plan to leave."
