Mystery: The arrival of the new Black Emperor

Hobert, who returned to the real world, waited until two o'clock in the afternoon for Xio and Forsi to return.

This time they had explored the location of the operation very clearly. Xio drew a sketch and talked about her arrest plan.

The two cultists lived in a dormitory building in the factory. Hugh attacked them from the main entrance, while Hobert and Forsi waited at the window to ambush them.

If Hugh's surprise attack fails, Hobert and Forth break the window and join the fight.

Because the enemy is weak and we are strong, there is no need for too careful tactics. When the time comes, Hobert will deal with one cultist alone, and Xio and Forsi will deal with one to end the battle as soon as possible.

Xio may seem a bit reckless when he's usually there, but when he's serious, he's pretty decent. His plans are very practical, and his precautions are enough to deal with most unplanned situations.

He is just a bit short and looks a bit unimpressive when explaining the plan.

Finally, Hobert added that if the employees were to block the evacuation, he could use his inspector's ID to get out.

Seeing Hobert's ID, Xio sighed: "Where did you forge it? It's so realistic."

Hobert didn't say anything. He smiled and said, "This is the ID I borrowed from a friend."

This made Xio envious. If she had such a certificate, many things would be much easier.

In the evening, the three of them had dinner and made final preparations.

At this moment, suddenly the doorbell rang.

"Who?" Hobert asked loudly in the restaurant.

No one answered.

"I'll open the door!" Forsi immediately got up and opened the door in order to avoid washing the dishes.

But there was no one outside the door.

"It's weird." Forsi was about to close the door when he saw a small cardboard box in front of the door.

"Wait!" Forsi was about to pick it up, but was stopped by Hobert. He picked up his cane and used it to open the carton. Inside was a pigeon stabbed to death with a dagger.

Forsi frowned: "Whose prank is this?" She was not afraid of this kind of thing.

Hobert smiled and shook his head: "These people are so childish!"

Forsi discovered: "There seems to be a letter inside."

Hobert didn't even look at it, he simply closed the carton and threw it into the trash can not far away.

After closing the door again, Forsi seemed to understand: "Is it because of Bob's case?"

Hobert nodded: "It seems that they know that I am back. I suggest you move away tomorrow. The methods they will use will only become more and more despicable in the future."

"We can't leave at this time!" Xiu said, "As long as we are here, the three of us can take turns to rest at night."

Forsi also said: "Yes, it's okay if we don't know. Now that we know, we can't just leave."

Hobert smiled and said: "After you leave, I will go back home and stay for two days. I will see if any of them dares to send such a thing to a brigadier general's home."

Xio and Forsi looked at each other, as if that was the case.

"Let's take action tonight first." Hobert said, "We'll talk about the rest tomorrow."

After nine o'clock in the evening, the three of them got into the carriage that they often collaborated with Xio.

At about ten o'clock at night, the three of them came to the courtyard wall of a textile factory, and Hugh repeated the day's plan in the carriage.

Then they started to take action. Hobert and Xio climbed over the wall and Forsi directly "opened the door" and entered.

The lights in the workshop have been turned off. After all, this is an era where gas lights are used for lighting and steam is used as mechanical power, and work cannot be stopped 24 hours a day.

Under Xio's leadership, they came to the dormitory building where the cultists lived. There were two dogs here, but Xio was prepared and threw them a few meaty bones. The two dogs were just gnawing bones and had no time to care about Hobert and the others.

Hobert and Forsi were lying in ambush outside the window. Xio quickly climbed from the second floor into the dormitory building and arrived outside the room where the cultists lived on the first floor.

Xio listened for a while and there was no movement inside. She kicked the door open, but then she realized something was wrong. There were three people in the room instead of two. They were sitting on the edge of the bed and seemed to be talking quietly in the dark.

After Xio kicked the door open, they looked at Xio together.

Xio scratched her head: "Sorry, we went to the wrong room!" After saying this, she politely closed the door for them.

The three people in the room were stunned for a second or two before one of them said: "Catch her!"

The three people rushed to the door together, and when they were about to open the door, the door suddenly slammed towards them. It turned out that Xio hadn't left at all. When she heard the three people arriving in front of the door, she kicked it hard again, kicked the door down and smashed it. The three people chased out.

At the same time, the window suddenly became unreal, and Forsi entered the room through the window.

Then the window was smashed open and Hobert jumped in holding a cane.

The two sides were three against three, and a fierce battle took place in the not very spacious room.

Because the scene was a bit chaotic, Hobert did not dare to use the pistol for the time being, for fear of accidentally injuring Xio or Forsi.

Hobert's opponent was a fighting master. The opponent was empty-handed, while Hobert was holding a cane. With the blessing of the "fighting ring", the two were able to fight to a draw.

And as the battle continued, the opponent seemed to be getting stronger and stronger.

However, as a "barbarian", Hobert was stronger. He quickly adjusted his strategy and used his strength advantage to charge forward.

The opponent had no sharp weapon and could only use his arms to resist Hobert's impact.

As a result, he hit the wall, causing dust to fly and almost vomiting blood.

Hobert rushed over again, and the opponent quickly dodged. Unexpectedly, Hobert used his cane as a sword. He took advantage of his strength to stab the opponent through and nail him to the wall.

Amidst the screams of the other party, Hobert drew his gun with his other hand.

Bang~

Hit the opponent's head at close range.

The gunfire was particularly loud at night, and the sound of fighting had woken up many people. However, after they heard the gunfire, the employees who originally wanted to come out to check quickly closed the door tightly again.

The battle on Xio's side was also coming to an end, and Forsi's opponent was the weakest. Even though Forsi was not good at fighting, he was not at a disadvantage.

Hobert went to help Forsi, rushed over and kicked the enemy down, and shot the enemy again.

Xio also used a dagger to slit his opponent's throat, and within a minute or two, they ended the battle.

Of course, this is largely due to their sneak attack.

Forsi breathed a sigh of relief, struck a match, lit the lamp, and checked the faces of the three people.

Hobert's opponent is the "prisoner". Although fighting is not included in his extraordinary abilities, "prisoners" are more likely to learn various killing skills, which of course includes fighting.

Xio's opponent was the "cultivator", while Forsi's opponent was not the character in the bounty. He wore an expensive formal suit, and he didn't look like a supervisor harboring two cultists.

Hobert searched the other party's body, but found no ID or anything like that.

Not knowing the identity of the other party always makes people a little uneasy, so Hobert asked Xio and Forsi to pack the other two corpses, and he prepared to channel the stranger.
