[Detroit] No Paradise

Chapter 18 Escape

This situation did not last long.

Joshua knew that with Connor's usual cold and efficient style, he would definitely call the police when he found himself and Marcus. Such a stalemate would definitely be detrimental to them.

Rather than saying that Connor was in a stalemate with them because he was afraid of Joshua's force, it would be better to say that he deliberately wasted time with them for the purpose of delaying time.

This bionic man, crystallized by the cutting-edge technology of modeling life, is very smart, but Joshua is not stupid, so naturally he will not spend time here with him.

So Joshua suddenly looked behind Connor, showing a panicked expression, and asked, "Look! There are a lot of abnormal bionics!"

The flamboyant Joshua roared, startling both Marcus and Connor. Connor's LED lights turned red, and he almost shot with a shake of his hand.Marcus was stunned by the high-decibel voice at first, and then quickly reacted.

After reacting, he only felt a few black lines slipping from the top of his head. How could anyone be fooled by such an old-fashioned and outdated trick?

Connor: "What? Abnormal android?!"

Marcus: "?" The speed of light hit the face?

However, the android baby, who was only a few months old, failed to understand Joshua's tricks to distract him.There is no similar prank prevention setting in his program, and no one has ever done this kind of thing to him before. After all, everyone thinks the same as Marcus-this kind of old and outdated tricks are all boring. ?

Connor subconsciously turned his head to look behind him, and just after he finished this action, he realized that he had made a stupid mistake.

Behind him is the door of the house, except for the howling cold wind and the falling sleet, where is there anyone?

Connor: "..."

Marcus: "..."

Well, this newly born bionic man doesn't seem to understand human's tricks very much—although it's an exaggeration to call this trick a trick, but this set of clumsy tricks really allowed Joshua to succeed.

After realizing that he had been tricked, Connor quickly turned his head back, but Joshua had already grabbed his hand with the gun in less than a second when he was distracted, and turned away forcefully.

Connor directly pulled the trigger, and the bullet hit the wall against Joshua's ear.

"Marcus, you go first!" Joshua firmly grasped Connor's wrist, while dealing with the latter's intensive and very methodical attack.It had only been a few days since he had fought, and Connor's combat effectiveness seemed to have improved considerably.

The bionics are always learning and evolving. Joshua's offensive mode has been almost analyzed by him. Every attack of Connor is extremely targeted, basically targeting Joshua's weakness in defense. The part is attacked.

"Damn it!" Joshua, who was almost kicked in the crotch by Connor, took a step back in fright, and looked at Connor in astonishment. When did this guy learn to cut off his children and grandchildren!

Connor seized this gap, raised his gun and pointed it at Marcus who was about to come up to help, and pulled the trigger without hesitation.

At that moment, Joshua lunges forward and hits Connor directly, knocking him to the ground, and the bullet misses.

Joshua bumped into a hard body, hurting his shoulder blades, and suddenly became irritable, and yelled at Marcus: "Marcus, get the hell out of here! !"

"I can't leave you alone..." Before Marcus finished speaking, Joshua yelled back: "Don't you know what is the most important thing?! Or do you want to stay? My hind legs?"

These words made Marcus stop in his tracks, and after only a momentary pause, he turned and ran towards the door.

Connor raised the gun tightly in his hand and pointed it at Marcus's back. Joshua rushed forward and pressed Connor under him.

Connor raised his hand and hit Joshua's nose with the butt of his gun. Joshua narrowly avoided the blow. With Connor's speed and strength, if the blow hit him, his nose would probably be broken on the spot.

"You kicked me just now... It's too much. If I kick it badly, I won't want sex for the rest of my life?" Joshua avoided Connor's attack while rolling sideways from him, Said with a grin.

Connor didn't understand what Joshua meant, but hearing his ruffian tone probably wasn't a good thing, so he kept silent as if he didn't hear it.

He could also see that Joshua was not using his full strength, and he seemed to be fulfilling his promise not to hurt him.

Therefore, according to the priority of the task, he should give up Joshua, who is no longer a big threat, and hunt down Marcus.

……

After Joshua yelled at Marcus away, he suddenly had a bold idea.

The situation was urgent just now, he didn't think of subduing Connor directly, and then asked Marcus to transform him.Now I think about it, but Marcus has already run away, and it is estimated that he will not be able to find anyone else in a while.

In this case, it is better to arrest Connor and hide him in a place to lock him up. When Marcus reconnects with him, he can directly transform Connor into an abnormal bionic.

Thinking of this, Joshua got up from the floor, and seeing Connor stand up and rush out the door, he immediately picked up the nearest empty wine bottle and threw it at Connor.

Connor turned his head and shot a precise shot at the empty wine bottle in the air. The movement was clean and neat, and the broken glass exploded like a flower, and fell to the ground with a crackling sound.

This marksmanship is like turning on the self-aiming hanger.

Joshua was dumbfounded. He suddenly understood why the army would prefer bionics instead of hiring mercenaries with higher prices and worse marksmanship.

After Connor fired the shot, he turned around and ran out the door. He looked around in the courtyard, saw Marcus at a street corner, and quickly chased after him.

Joshua followed Connor and ran out of the house. He ran out a few steps and felt that something was wrong. The weapon box in the house had already unlocked the iris lock. It was dangerous, so I could only curse secretly in my heart, and turned around to lock the door first.

With this delay, by the time Joshua rushed to the street again, Connor had already left him a block away.

Joshua, who hadn't eaten since last night and was not fully awake from the hangover, could only bite the bullet and chase after him. Brains are rusted.

Although he secretly disliked himself in his heart, his speed was still fast, and he was about to catch up with Connor within a short distance.

Just when he was about to throw Connor directly to the ground, Connor stopped suddenly.

Joshua didn't have time to brake and slammed into Connor hard.

"boom!"

A bionic man and a human fell to the ground, and they both rolled several times under the huge impact before stopping.

Joshua felt as if he had bumped into a utility pole while running wildly with his eyes closed. The body of the bionic human was not as soft as a human being. The collision almost broke several of his ribs, causing him great pain. There are stars in my eyes.When he got up from the ground in a daze, Connor, who didn't feel pain, had already picked up the gun that fell to the ground because of being knocked into the air, and pointed the black muzzle at Joshua.

"You...cough, why did you stop suddenly! It's very dangerous, don't you know!" Joshua, who really wanted to have a quality three times, forcibly resisted the urge to curse, he didn't want to continue in front of Connor lowered his image.Instead, he ignored the gun that threatened his life.

Connor pulled the crooked tie with one hand expressionlessly, and moved it back to the center position, while still holding the pistol tightly with the other hand.

For an enemy like Joshua who can kill you if you don't pay attention, he doesn't dare to take it lightly.

"I lost Marcus." Connor said flatly.There are so many forks in this area, and Marcus's running speed is quite fast. He is on equal footing with Connor, so it is not very difficult to get rid of Connor.

"Oh... don't be discouraged, work harder next time." Joshua didn't know how to answer, so he chose a very unnutritious comforting sentence, but his tone was insincere, and it sounded like he was mocking.

"He might come back to save you." Connor said, his voice didn't fluctuate at all, and the hand holding the gun was so steady that it didn't tremble at all. "I just need to guard you until he falls into the trap."

"..." Joshua was silent. Connor had a gun in his hand. With his absolute superiority in marksmanship, he really wasn't [-]% sure that he could disarm Connor without being injured.What's more, Connor already has a certain understanding of his fighting style, and the current position has also opened a very safe distance, which undoubtedly caused some trouble for Joshua.

Unless he goes all out and just beats Connor to the ground and doesn't care about anything else, then Connor will probably be beaten by him, which is not what Joshua wants to see.

And if he doesn't subdue Connor, if Marcus suddenly loses his mind and really runs back to save him, it will probably be cold. Connor will definitely blow Marcus's head off without hesitation. , and dragged him to Model Control Life Anatomy.

"Let's go back to your house now." Connor said, "We'll wait there."

"You called the police, right?" Joshua frowned, "Are you really determined to put me in jail?" If they go back to that house now, there will only be two results—Ma Cus brought the men from Jericho to get the weapons, or the police to search, or worse, both at the same time, and it was all over.

"Anyone should be responsible for the mistakes they make. It's not that I want to put you in prison, but that you chose this path." Connor was unmoved.

"..." Joshua sighed, rubbing his chest that was aching from the impact just now, "They are your same kind, they are both bionics, why do they do such a great job?"

"Tracking down the abnormal android is my mission."

"Do you only care about tasks?"

"Yes."

"..." Joshua felt a little stuffy in his heart, and couldn't tell whether it was sadness or anger.

The snow was still falling, and it didn't take long for the two of them to be coated with a thin layer of white.

After a while, Connor suddenly asked, "...Why did you help them?"

Joshua was taken aback, apparently he didn't expect Connor to care about this question: "Why do you ask this?"

Connor was also stunned for a moment after asking the question. This does not conform to his programming. Human behavior is inherently unpredictable. Besides, his task is only to track down abnormal bionics and find out the reason for their abnormality. He does not need to know human thoughts.

But this sentence came out of his mouth so naturally.

Joshua shrugged with a smile: "Look, you don't only care about tasks."

"I just can't understand. Vice-Captain Anderson's stance on this matter is not firm. Sometimes, his behavior and remarks make me not even understand which side he is on." Connor said, his head slightly sideways Aside, there was a little undetectable confusion in his tone.

Humans are really strange creatures.

"Ah, it's his style." Joshua couldn't help laughing after thinking about Hank's character.

"You and Vice Captain Anderson are very similar in this aspect. Is this personality related to genetics?" Connor asked.

"What about heredity?" Joshua suddenly had a bad feeling.

"Isn't he your grandfather?" Connor asked solemnly.

"..."

Yeah, like Hank told Connor that Joshua was his grandson when he was drunk.

But this is a fucking hurtful word!How can you take it seriously!

Joshua took a deep breath, and resisted the urge to run to the Detroit police station to wring Hank's head off, "Listen, Connor, Hank lied to you, but I'm actually his grandfather."

Connor, who couldn't understand this curse, immediately denied Joshua's statement: "Impossible, you are younger than him."

"Then do you think it is possible for Hank to give birth to a grandson my age given the age difference between Hank and me?" Joshua was furious, "How come you are so smart now!"

"The age difference between you is 25 years. The earliest time for human males to mature is about 12 years old, and the gestation time for females is ten months. In theory, 25 years is the shortest time required to give birth to two generations of offspring." Connor is very Academically speaking. "Although Hank's son died when he was young, it does not rule out the possibility that he may have other children, including illegitimate children."

"..." Joshua was speechless for a while, and after a while, he clapped his hands and applauded Connor who was analyzing seriously: "That really blows your mind, Mr. Xueba RK800."

"Thank you for the compliment, but strictly speaking, I am not a master of learning. This knowledge is not acquired by learning, but is directly installed in my software as a knowledge module." Connor said.

"..." Joshua was stunned for a long while, but couldn't hold back a burst of laughter: "Pfft, Connor, you're so cute."

With this interruption, all the haze in his heart was dispelled.

Not knowing how the word "cute" connected to him, RK800 paused for a moment, and decisively ended the topic: "Enough, we talked about too many irrelevant topics. Now go back to your room."

In the end, he returned to this contradiction. Joshua had no choice but to say something when he suddenly saw several familiar figures appearing behind Connor.

Joshua narrowed his eyes and looked at it, his brows were furrowed.

Seems like a little bit of bad luck today.

Seeing that Joshua was standing still, Connor took a step forward threateningly, aiming the gun at Joshua's forehead all the time: "Hurry up."

"There's someone behind you," Joshua said.

Connor: "..."

Playing the same trick twice, does he really think his RK800 is a three-year-old child?

Seeing Connor's indifference, Joshua finally felt what it was like to shoot himself in the foot.

"I didn't lie to you, you put the gun down first." Joshua whispered.

Connor hesitated when he saw that Joshua's face didn't look like he was joking, nor did he look like it was staged.

But soon, he didn't need to hesitate anymore, and someone among those who came towards them spoke:

"Tut tut, isn't this Herbert? What? Trouble?"

Joshua frowned and sighed.

It really was these people.Not only acquaintances, but also enemies.

The kind of hatred.

……

In Detroit, there is an industry that sells red ice privately, and Lucas considers himself an elite in the industry.

Because he was generous enough and ruthless enough, he quickly established his own influence in Detroit.Although it is not the biggest and most profitable gang, it still has a gang of nearly a hundred people, and it can make him famous just by collecting protection fees.What's more, he also mastered the way of selling red ice, and the money was like snowballing, allowing him to live a happy life for a while.

But the days didn't last long.

Some powerful person came to the anti-narcotics team of the Detroit Police Department. Some of Lucas's men had dirty hands and feet, but he found clues by following the clues.When Lucas knew about this, his identity had been exposed, and he could only face the police who came to arrest him.

But Lucas was also a ruthless person, and immediately ordered his younger brothers to copy the guys and fight to the death with these gangsters.Maybe it was because of his ruthlessness that he infected those helpless little brothers, they really beat the scorpion, and they were about to win. A meddling guy didn't know which tendon was wrong, and he did it for no reason. Come help those scribbles.

Lucas still remembers the man named Joshua Herbert, who was introduced by Adolphus to buy some very expensive cigars that are rare in the market, Lucas Ben also thought that this man was bold and decisive in what he said and did, and he bought it for tens of thousands of dollars without discussing the price.

Lucas thought that a single person would not be able to cause any big waves, but who knew that Joshua really turned the tide of the battle with his fighting power alone, and successfully helped the police to defeat all their people.

When he was arrested, he asked Joshua resentfully why he did this, and Joshua's answer he still remembers to this day.

He just lit the cigar he just bought from him, put it in his mouth, and then smiled absent-mindedly: "No reason, it's just that you don't like it."

Lucas hated every minute and every second he spent in prison.He didn't hate the man named Hank Anderson in the anti-narcotics team, but he hated Joshua Herbert who turned his face at a critical moment.

A few years later, he finally managed his relationship up and down and was successfully released on bail.

Probably the gods felt his anger, and shortly after he was released on bail, he received a report from his subordinates.Four gang members were attacked while trading red ice by a stranger who, from their descriptions, sounded very similar to Joshua Herbert.

Lukes was ecstatic, the Nemesis finally favored him.So he asked hundreds of his men to search for Joshua in the whole city, and finally got the information this morning.

That's why he's here now.He knew that Joshua Herbert was powerful, and a few people couldn't handle him, so he brought dozens of thugs, just to pour cement into the sea, Joshua, a slut who killed a thousand knives.

But it seems that he also encountered a little trouble.

"Hey, it seems that you haven't been doing well in the past few years." Lucas said mockingly, "Let a plastic trash point a gun at your head, tsk tsk, bastard."

"..." Joshua's eyes swept over Lucas and the thugs behind him.Almost everyone is equipped with guns and daggers, and the terrain here is also very narrow and easy to be blocked.If you fight hard, it is impossible for an unarmed Joshua to beat dozens of people with guns, let alone he is still being pointed at the head by Connor.

"Connor, listen to me, put the gun down quickly, or both of us will die here." Joshua whispered, while quickly looking for the escape route with the corner of his eyes.

He wasn't joking. Connor's bionic life was just a bonus to a vicious person like Lucas, and there was no psychological burden to accept it. Joshua's life was directly his goal.

Connor also realized that something was wrong, he put down his gun obediently, and turned to look at Lucas and his group.

"Louis, long time no see." Joshua stepped forward, protecting Connor behind him.

"...My name is Lucas!" Lucas took out the gun immediately after Joshua's light words, his face was livid.

Joshua: "..."

God is pitiful, he really didn't mean to be angry with this guy, it would be nice to remember this guy's face, isn't it too harsh to remember his name?

"I'm too lazy to talk to you, so hurry up if you have any last words." Lucas snorted coldly.

Joshua raised his eyebrows: "You want to kill me here? You are not qualified."

"Hehehe... Not only do I want your life, but I also want to break every single bone of yours before you die, and then watch you curl up in a bloody and twisted shape, slowly waking up in pain. Die." Lucas said every word, and the hatred in his words made people's heart skip a beat.

"You can't do that unless you want to face charges of first-degree murder." Connor suddenly stepped forward and stood shoulder to shoulder with Joshua.

Joshua was stunned, and immediately pulled Connor, pulling him behind him, but surprisingly, he didn't move.Connor stood firmly by his side, not giving an inch.

"Huh?" Lucas looked at Connor with interest, and said with a sinister smile, "You bought this plastic garbage? You have a good dog."

Joshua smiled, lowered his head to cover his suddenly fierce and cold eyes, paused for half a second, and suddenly snatched the pistol from Connor at a speed that could hardly be caught by the naked eye, without hesitation The pair pulled the trigger on Lucas.

"boom!"

Lucas didn't expect that Joshua would do it as soon as he said it in such an extremely disadvantaged situation. His reaction was half a beat late, and he could only barely avoid the vital point. The bullet spun into his body, and blood spattered across On the snow-covered ground, it is bright and dazzling.

"Damn it... catch him!" Lucas staggered back and screamed.

Joshua immediately prepared to fire the second shot, trying to kill the leader Lucas directly as quickly as possible.

The moment Lucas ordered to shoot, Connor entered the ballistic analysis mode. Dozens of people holding guns all aimed at Joshua. If he didn't dodge, he would only be beaten into a sieve.And Joshua seemed to be dazzled by anger, and he had no intention of dodging at all.

Connor made a decision in an instant. He pushed Joshua away and pushed the latter into a side alley.Joshua was caught off guard and pushed down to the ground. Countless bullets flew out against his body, and the air waves created caused his skin to ache as if it was being burned.

Connor rushed into the alley after him, pulling Joshua up from the ground.

"We have to get out of here quickly." He said, his tone was still calm, but Joshua could hear some abnormal electrical interference.

The situation was urgent, and without time to think about it, Joshua grabbed Connor's hand and started running in the alley.The terrain here is very tight, with forks and narrow paths everywhere, it is not difficult to get rid of the enemy, but if they are found, it means that there is no room to dodge.

Joshua was running at high speed in the alley, judging the direction of the pursuers by listening to the sound, and kept adjusting the dodging position, but he was not found for a long time.

"Surround this place to me! Guard every intersection!" Lucas said through gritted teeth, "I don't believe he can hide for a lifetime!"

After this order was issued, Joshua soon found that all exits were blocked.

"Damn." Joshua took Connor to hide in an abandoned house, panting and cursing, "It seems that we can only find a way to get rid of them all."

He lowered his head to check the magazine clip of the gun in his hand. The clip capacity was already very small, and now there were only four bullets left.

"It's a little troublesome..." Joshua said with a frown. He went out to kill a few drug dealers. It doesn't matter if he failed and was killed, but Connor is innocent, and he shouldn't be involved in this matter , so Joshua turned back to look at Connor, "Why don't you call the police?"

The bionic man can call the police without any communication equipment, which is really worry-free.

As a result, turning around, Joshua saw a scene that broke his heart and gallbladder.

Connor clutched his chest and leaned against the wall, blue blood continuously flowed down his fingers, and the LED lights jumped dangerously red.After hearing what Joshua said, he looked up at him, and the sound of electricity kept interfering with his voice: "Some of my biological components have been destroyed, and now I can't connect to the Internet, and I can't call the police."

"Why do you..." Joshua got stuck in the middle of his sentence. He thought of the time when Connor pushed him just now. At that time, dozens of guns fired at the same time. Although Connor was not their target, it was inevitable that he would be accidentally injured. .He pushed himself and exposed himself to the bullet at the same time, and he didn't notice this problem until now!

"Why didn't you tell me earlier!" Joshua was anxious and didn't know what to do.He subconsciously wanted to tear his own clothes to help Connor stop the bleeding, but he didn't know if it was reliable for the android to stop the bleeding with a bandage, so he stood in front of Connor with the torn cloth strips, sweating profusely .

"I... I can't last long, you don't need to worry about me." Connor watched the countdown of the alarm interface flashing red in front of him. The lack of his biological components is not the most fatal, so he can barely hold on now. It was running, but the bleeding was enough to kill him, and he had less than an hour left.

Moreover, he was already unable to fight after being injured, and Joshua could only be a drag with him.

"No... No way." Joshua felt his voice tremble a little, he wanted to calm himself down, but he found that he couldn't.

"They are searching the houses one by one. If they stay here, they will be found sooner or later. You should go." Connor persuaded with some helplessness.

Joshua froze and didn't move.

The wind kept pouring in through the gap in the window, making Joshua shiver from the cold. He closed the window subconsciously, his mind was full of injured people who could no longer catch the cold, but he never thought that Connor, as a bionic human, would Not afraid of the cold.After closing the window, he walked up to Connor and asked in a trembling voice, "How long can you last?"

"One hour, ten minutes, 1 seconds." Connor accurately reported the remaining time until he completely shut down, "You don't have to worry about me, take a gun and find a hidden place to hide."

"More than an hour... in time, in time." Joshua said to himself, completely ignoring the second part of Connor's words.

"What?" Connor asked.

"From here, go to the nearest model-controlled life store. It takes about half a minute to grab a car. I'll buy you blue blood." Joshua stood up as he spoke, and wanted to run outside.

"Are you crazy!" Connor was slightly taken aback, and immediately stretched out his hand to grab Joshua's clothes. His strength was very weak, but he accidentally grabbed the latter, "There are too many of them, why don't you come out?" No! And..."

And even if you do break out, you will still be wanted and your account will be frozen. In a store equipped with advanced security systems like Mokong Life, if you show up, you will end up being arrested.

"Then you want me to do nothing and watch you die?!" Joshua glared at Connor, but he didn't dare to shake off him and grab his hand, for fear of making his injury worse.

"I'm not going to die, I'm not alive," Connor said. "But you are different, if..."

"Shut up!" Joshua squatted down and punched the wall behind Connor, making a loud noise.He approached Connor, stared at those clear and cold eyes, and said word by word: "We are no different, you have life, I will not let you die."

I have hurt you many times, but this time, I protect you.

"..." Connor was stunned, he didn't know how to answer for a moment, Joshua's eyes that were often depressed and impatient seemed to be burning with fire, dazzling and bright like the sun.

Joshua stood up again, walked towards the door, turned around after taking two steps, and stuffed the gun in Connor's arms.

"I'm not here, you have to protect yourself first. I'll be right back." He said, without giving Connor time to respond, he opened the door and walked out.

The cold wind was like a knife, engulfing snowflakes and blowing on Joshua's face. He glanced back at the locked door and took a deep breath.

Rush out, or die.
