Law Enforcer's Handbook

Chapter 40 Shadows of the Past
Somewhere in District [-].

The boy ran forward without looking back. This was a road that left District [-] and led to the "outside".

The big brother who gave him the mobile phone was right, this seemingly inconspicuous thing contained knowledge beyond his imagination, even the navigation to the "outside" was no exception.

He couldn't remember how long he had been running, and he didn't know where he was. The only good thing was that under the warning of the city's alarm, people in District [-] stayed at home, and there was no pedestrian on the street.

"It's really not good, you will run away from home."

The voice from the front made the boy's heart almost stop for half a second. The door of the empty phone booth was pushed open, and a short-haired woman with a black suitcase appeared in front of him without warning.

"My sister came here all the way to find you."

Fei Yin still had a fanatical and sweet smile on her face. She stretched out her other free hand as an invitation, "How about it? Should I go back with my sister, or let my sister break your leg and take you away?" How about going back?"

Almost without thinking, the boy turned and ran in the other direction.

However, before he could take the second step, he slammed into an oncoming object.

The door of the convenience store next to him was pushed open, and it was Fei Yin, who was tens of meters away from him, who came out of it. After bumping into the boy, she glanced at the black suitcase she was carrying and said, " You see, he is also waiting for you to go back."

"I-I know."

Seeing that there was no room for maneuver, the boy could only grit his teeth and said unwillingly.

"That's right, this is a good boy."

Feyn really took the boy's hand affectionately as if she were treating a younger brother who had left home.

However, when she turned around, a sudden change occurred, a cold light flashed across the boy's eyes, and the dagger hidden in his sleeve stabbed directly at Feyn's back.

All kinds of martial arts, this is a sneak attack!
The mobile phone said that this is one of the most vulnerable parts of the human body, as long as one hit is successful, it can directly paralyze the opponent.

Got it!
The boy was overjoyed.

"Are you...have you reached the rebellious stage?"

The expected scream did not come, and he pulled out the dagger in disbelief—he had clearly seen that the blade had been embedded in Feyn's flesh, and then, the boy was horrified to find that the sharp blade had been crushed at some point. Bian, the attack that carried out his belief just now, in the end it just made the handle of the knife lightly touch the opponent.

"Still, you were brainwashed by that rescuer."

Finn Elnim's eyes turned gloomy and cold, and the murderous look made the boy feel like he was in an ice cellar. He couldn't help but took a few steps back and fell to the ground, "That's right, he risked his life to help You escaped... What a smart person, you actually thought of hiding you in a locker and fighting to the death, making me mistakenly think that you fled in another direction."

Her words successfully brought back the boy's broken memories.

In that dark basement, in the tightly closed locker, through the gap, I saw the demon in front of me step by step towards the seriously injured rescuer.

Her back blocked her view, and there were only the sounds of squeezing and breaking her body.

"Why, why don't you let me go?"

The sneak attack failed, and all the boy could do at this moment was to question the other party and stare at Feyn with hatred.

"Huh? Didn't he teach you some common sense? For example, only after experiencing pain beyond imagination and seeing the deepest despair can the gift that this world bestows upon you bear fruit."

Feyn didn't care about the boy's hatred, she bent down, her lips almost touched the boy's earlobe, and whispered in a whisper that only the two of them could hear clearly, "Have you ever thought about it, I actually discovered the hidden treasure a long time ago?" You in the locker, everything I did was for you to witness that scene with your own eyes."

The boy's pupils shrank.

Those memories changed rapidly. At this moment, the blurred part began to recover under the reminder of the other party, and everything he believed in also quietly changed.

He seemed to be back in the narrow locker. Through the gap, he saw that Feyn, who had squeezed the rescuer into a pulp, did not go in the other direction. She turned around and faced the locker. With a bloodthirsty and fanatical smile on his face, he watched as Feyn walked towards him step by step until her face was pressed against the gap of the locker, and she looked inside through the gap of the smile.

A few seconds later, he heard a very rhythmic knocking sound.

A familiar but eerie nursery rhyme echoed outside.

"Little bunny, open the door..."

The next moment, memory and reality overlapped, and all the nursery rhymes became whispers close to my ears, "And you, you never escaped from there."

The boy suddenly looked at the strangely tall black suitcase, and he seemed to have understood what was in it.

"They say you can't experience true despair without hope."

Fei Yin straightened her body, and she raised her tone, her high emotions seemed to have trampled the whole world under her feet, "For you, I have waited for three years, how could I let you slip away before my eyes? Since You have asked sincerely, so I will tell you—that is because, as long as I can use your ability for me, I am invincible!"

She disappeared for three years, and spent so long in that dark laboratory, all for this moment of reward.

"You already know the answer, and it's time to go home."

Feyn pouted towards the black suitcase, "The empty shell that has lost its soul is just a tool after all, go and fill in the last part."

……

……

……

As time passed by, Feyn gradually turned from fanaticism to impatience.

After a long time, she looked at the boy's still clear figure, and finally said suddenly, "So that's the case, no wonder you escaped from that yard, I didn't expect that there are people you value in that place."

"I told you I'll go back with you!"

The boy struggled to get up from the ground, "Let's go now."

"Too late."

Fei Yin shook her head, "I hope it's an impurity that must be removed, but don't worry, let my sister help you."

"Sorry to bother you."

A male voice intervened in the conversation between the "siblings".

Feyn frowned, and followed the prestige.

What came into view was a man wearing a black windbreaker and a top hat, with his entire face covered by a mask.

As he spoke, the man was pulling a blue-gray bicycle to the side of the road.

"The whole city has issued a ban, why do you two still stay on the street?"
