Ember Gun

  Chapter 507 Thief

  This is where Lorenzo left...in the first few days?

  In the old morning, Eve stood on the street and looked to one side, and the interior of the Winchester office was completely dark.

  Every time on duty, Eve will pass by here, sometimes breaking into the door, adding a lot of trouble to Lorenzo's breakfast, sometimes stopping briefly, and then leaving.

  As usual, after watching Lorenzo leave the port of Rendona, the Winchester office closed, and darkness rolled and silence remained.

  I knew that Lorenzo had already left, but now Eve still stopped habitually, then walked to the door of the office and looked at these strange decorations.

Although he helped Lorenzo tidy up the terrible room, the outside of the office was still messy. The worst thing was Lorenzo’s ridiculous sign. He didn’t seem to have maintained this thing at all, and the lights on it had long ceased to shine. It's bright, and the steel is also covered with rough rust. It's like being abandoned here.

   "This style of life is really indescribable."

  Eve gently wiped the dilapidated sofa by the door with his fingers. There was dust on it, and Lorenzo hadn't even thought of wiping it.

   shook her head helplessly, Eve gradually got used to Lorenzo's bad life style, and was about to leave. She suddenly realized something and turned around and looked at the door.

  The palm of his hand pressed against the door, and Eve pushed the door open without much effort.

  Eve didn’t think Lorenzo would be so stupid that he would forget to lock the door, nor would he believe that this guy would jump off the boat and run back, so who opened the office’s door?

  Lorenzo’s roommate? That guy is dead early, Mrs. Van Lud? She has also been away for a long time.

  Who would it be? Thief? But this kind of seemingly poor place should be few thieves would want to patronize it.

  Thinking this way, Eve pushed the gap wide until she pushed the door open, and the neat and tidy living room appeared in front of her.

  She crept in, telling her intuitively that the guy who had sneaked into the office had not left.

  Eve’s mood was a little strange at the moment. She took out the folding knife around her waist, and smashed the metal bit by bit with her hand, and silently pulled the knife head out.

  Like a leopard hunting, she lowered her body and moved forward silently.

  There is no fear on her face, but excitement is written on her face.

Once Eve was considered a lady of everybody, she should wear gorgeous dresses and dance in luxurious banquets, but at a certain moment her life ushered in a huge turning point. The girl tore off her skirt and held a sharp knife, and she became What is the so-called Inervig Valkyrie.

Sometimes Eve is also thinking about what her life would be like if she hadn’t taken that step, and would it really become a story from Arthur’s mouth, getting married and having children, spending the rest of her life on a peaceful island .

  Later, Eve realized that it was not that she had chosen such a thrilling life and made changes, but that this world had chosen herself.

Eve has a restless heart. As Arthur untied her, the restlessness continued to intensify. At the end of the Maruri port, Eve had faintly realized that she was such a self, and she was facing danger. There was no pressure, but excitedly swung the knife forward.

  This is what Eve was like. The previous luxury and manners were just Arthur's domestication of her wild nature.

  Eve touched the edge of the kitchen, the cabinets were all turned over, and there were still food residues on the ground. It seemed that the guy had stayed here for a while, he seemed very hungry, and grabbed something and ate.

  Walking to the side, Eve remembered something, and couldn't help but smile a little on her face.

During the celebration that day, the Kestrel had no idea what happened to Lorenzo. The two of them drank a lot of beer and vowed to drink each other. At that time, the Kestrel was already a little fuzzy. With a mind that was not very bright, he was actually ready to fight Lorenzo.

  The result was also expected. The Kestrel fell down before Lorenzo tried hard.

  Kestrel fell to the ground while holding the wine bottle while retching. Just when he couldn't control himself and really wanted to vomit, Lorenzo threw him out in time in a burst of cheers.

  It was a good night, not only for Lorenzo, but also for Eve and even everyone.

  Eve also participated in a dinner party. It was magnificent, rich in mountains and seas, and full of dignitaries, but Eve didn’t like these. Everyone wore the most luxurious clothes and smirked in this serious and depressing atmosphere.

  This is the first time she has attended such a relaxing... dinner? Probably it was. Everyone looked the same, eating, drinking and having fun together. For Eve, it was the first time that she became aware of the so-called friend.

The living room on the first floor was quickly searched. Mrs. Van Lud’s room was sealed in good condition and there was no sign of being opened. This made Eve feel a little strange. It seemed that the other party did not come for money, otherwise the entire office. It has been turned upside down a long time ago.

Eve began to hope that the thief hadn’t stolen anything. Lorenzo’s office was filled with surprises. Maybe in a drawer, you could find a few firearms or something related to demons. If If this is the case, this matter needs to trouble the scavenger troops.

  The other party sneaked in because of hunger? It doesn't seem to be necessary. If you are really starving to death, you should go to the bakery to steal things no matter what you think. What are you stealing here? A mushroom that grows from Lorenzo's pants?

  Eve analyzes each other's intelligence, the more she analyzes, the more confused she is. She is even wondering if she is Lorenzo's friend? But does Lorenzo have any friends?

  The familiar people are either lying in the Black Mountain Hospital or on duty. How can I think Eve can’t think of other people... My friends before the old Dunling? It's also unlikely that Lorenzo hadn't told Eve directly, but from the words of Arthur and others, she also roughly understood that Lorenzo had lost all his friends after Saint Promenade's Night.

  Who would it be? Is he really a stupid thief who is hungry? Then he is too unlucky.

  Eve’s gaze fell on the second floor. She moved forward slowly. Sieg’s door was still closed. No one had moved, but Lorenzo’s door had a small slit and was not closed tightly.

   Gently opened the door, Eve saw the thief, he was lying on Lorenzo’s bed, sleeping sideways.

  Eve started to know what was going on. A while ago, she had heard other people say that some people would sneak in when the owner was away, most of them were homeless people.

  She was a little disappointed. She thought she would be some more interesting guy.

  The folding knife was slowly attached to the quilt, approaching the man's throat, Eve raised her foot and kicked it.

   "Get up, raise your hands."

  The person on the bed didn’t respond, did they sleep so dead?

  Eve had a bad idea. She opened the quilt and found that underneath was a human figure piled up with pillows and clothes. She was counted.

  Almost at the same time, there was a sound from behind Eve, and the woman swung Lorenzo's trousers, grabbed both ends and put her hands around Eve's neck, tightening it forcefully.

  When Eve entered the office, the woman noticed her coming. All this was just her trap. She hid behind the door, waiting for the moment Eve relaxed her vigilance.

  This sudden change caused Eve to lose consciousness. When she reacted, her neck was strangled, and she firmly grasped the cloth, and she waved the folding knife with her backhand.

  This blow cut the air, but it didn’t matter. Eve found that the woman behind her did not seem to have much strength. She arched her body vigorously, grabbed the woman’s hand along the tight pants, and threw her over.

  As a natural ranger, Eve may not be as strong as the Demon Hunter, but compared to most ordinary people, she already has a terrifying suppression.

The woman fell heavily to the ground, she let out a scream, tried to get up and continue to resist, not afraid of the folding knife in Eve's hands, she grabbed Eve's feet and pressed her abdomen along her thighs , Overwhelming Eve, with her own momentum to withstand her outside the house.

  Eve lost her balance for a while. The narrow space restricted the slash of the jackknife. Besides, Eve didn’t want to hurt the woman. She smashed the door and fell into the corridor.

  Even though Eve is never soft when he chops demons and enemies, she is not a bloodthirsty lunatic and will not kill everyone.

The two bumped back and forth in the corridor. Eve pressed her elbow fiercely against the woman's chest, then kicked her abdomen, kicked her to the stairwell, and the woman rolled back and forth. He kept falling on the floor of the living room before slowly stopping.

She was dizzy, and the exhaustion for many days was also affecting her judgment. The woman just tried to get up, and the swift Eve was already in the air. She didn't give a woman any more chances. She might not want to kill the woman in front of her, but she would It is also very simple for her to become incapacitated.

  The woman just stood up and was fell down by Eve again. She didn't have much strength anymore, and this weak body was heavier than she thought.

  She was pressed to the ground, Eve pressed her knees firmly on her shoulders, the cold folding knife stood on the edge of her neck, and the reflection of her face could be seen from the smooth metal.

  A strange face.

   "Be honest, don't move."

Eve inhaled and subdued the woman. She looked at it roughly. The woman didn't feel like an Inervigor. She was wearing a gray cloth with the smell of soil and sea breeze. She seemed to be a traveler. , I don’t know how long it took, and finally came to Jiudunling here. Because she couldn't see her face clearly, Eve couldn't judge her specific age, and her vague intuition told her that this woman should be much older than herself.

  In short, all the signs surfaced that this was just an ordinary person, which made Eve more or less put down his vigilance.

  "Who are you? Why are you here?"

  Faced with Eve’s question, the woman remained silent. She was in a terrible mood at the moment, and she never expected that she would fall to this point.

  It’s been a long time since a woman has had such an experience. Now that she tastes it again, she realizes the heaviness and burden of the human body.

  The flesh and blood body is so fragile, it will bleed, will be injured, will be infested by diseases, will also feel tired and painful, this is so humble.

  The woman suddenly thought that perhaps the road to sublimation is really a road to upgrade. Human beings are moving towards a higher and purer existence. From then on, the will will no longer be bound by the mortal and enjoy absolute freedom and control.

   "Lorenzo, where is it?"

  The woman coughed a few times, but instead of answering Eve’s question, she asked her doubts.

   "He has been away for many days, where did he go?" She asked again.

   "Lorenzo? You know Lorenzo Holmes."

  Eve felt something was wrong, she couldn't think that a woman actually knew Lorenzo, as if she came here because of Lorenzo.

  Lorenzo’s enemy? No, Lorenzo shouldn't have such a weak enemy. If she came to find Lorenzo for revenge, she would be dying.

  Lorenzo's friend? It is also unlikely that I have known Lorenzo for so long, and Eve has never known that Lorenzo still has such a friend, so embarrassed and exhausted, she seems to have come from afar.

   "Who are you?"

  Eve continued to ask, she began to think that the woman under her might not be the enemy, but she also knew that anyone who was involved in Lorenzo was a very troublesome guy.

   "You don't need to know."

   "Then I can't tell you."

The two were in a stalemate, and the woman suddenly rioted. She rolled over and twisted Eve’s knees. She moved quickly between the knives and the light. She moved very ridiculously, like crawling on the ground, and then rolled hard and hit By the wall.

It’s probably too long since I have used a flesh and blood body for such a long time. A woman is always unfamiliar with the various touches of the body, and her movements sometimes seem very clumsy. In addition to her inner anxiety, she feels that her will is affected by flesh and blood. Being bound, with the accumulation of time, the irritability of this imprisonment becomes more and more intense.

  "Is it true?" The woman whispered.

  I saw Eve’s folding knife drew a scar on the ground. If the woman was slower, the scar would appear on her body.

   "Who told you to be so dishonest?"

   Eve also got angry in her heart, just catching the thief once, but the incident obviously developed in a more and more complicated direction.

Eyes lifted and landed on the woman. What appeared in front of her was a very ordinary woman. There was almost nothing memorable in the ordinary. There was fatigue in her eyes. She leaned against the wall and was panting. It was filled with blood, and I didn't know what had gone through, and the whole person didn't have the slightest intent to fight.

  But...the only thing that is special is the headdress she wears.

  Eve is not sure whether it is a headdress or some kind of crown. It is made of silver-white metal. The workmanship is very rough, intertwined like entangled dead wood, as if it is growing along the woman's head.

   "I... have seen this crown."

  Eve was very familiar with this crown. She recalled that not only had she seen such a crown, she had even worn it for a while.

  That belongs to Lorenzo's crown.
