"Tanier was kidnapped?!"
Bondi was taken aback for a moment, the sudden news made the sergeant sit up straight after he had just relaxed, and the pipe that had just been lit in his mouth almost fell to the ground.
The sheriff looked at his deputy in surprise, as if to confirm the accuracy of the news.
"It's news from those 'boys'."
Hall nodded, and with this nod, his beard was tied to the clothes on his chest, forming a curve. The police detective walked around the desk and lowered his voice: "One of the 'boys' He happened to go to the post office to pick up the newspaper, and when he saw Ta Neil finished typing the telegram, he was knocked out of the post office, carried into the carriage and taken away, and then he came to notify me immediately."
"I told them before, not to let them follow at will, just to collect information."
"Um."
Bundy approved of the deputy's approach very much.
After coming into contact with the "mysterious side", Bundy knew how dangerous the seemingly safe Lord was secretly.
Especially after the 'disaster day', such danger is almost showing a straight-line upward trend.
For a group of half-grown children, gathering information is enough.
More
Naturally they have to deal with it.
However, these 'boys' were able to make meritorious deeds so quickly, it seemed that it was really what his friend said.
'Everyone is on the alert when uniformed officers are approaching, passing by. '
’ But not for some half-grown kids. '
’ And the kids who serve as newspaper boys and run errands are far smarter and more observant than we think. '
'There was once a great detective who hired a group of children to help him gather information. '
Although Bundy didn't know who the big detective was, he knew that his friend was right again.
Relying on a group of police officers to collect information is far worse than letting a group of half-grown children do it.
"I don't know where Jason is now?"
Bundy couldn't help thinking.
The sheriff missed his friend dearly.
If the other party was here, he wouldn't have to worry about it so much.
Of course, this doesn't mean Ta Neal is bad.
Tanier has done his best.
He can see it.
However, compared to Jason, Ta Neil was really far behind.
Whether in terms of ability or response to emergencies.
He sighed slightly from the bottom of his heart.
Bundy quickly pulled back his thoughts.
Regardless of Tanier's ability, the other party is a trustworthy young man.
Moreover, it is also his friend.
Now that Tanier has an accident, he will not sit idly by, public or private.
"Where did the carriage end up?"
Bundy asked.
He believed that since Hall could calmly stand in front of him and report the matter, it was enough to show that the whereabouts of the carriage were under control.
Hall is more familiar with some things on the street than he is.
Except for those 'boys'.
Hall has many other options.
And Hall lived up to Bundy's trust.
"Go to the southern suburbs."
Hall replied.
"suburbs?"
Bundy frowned.
"Yeah, the suburbs."
Hall sighed too.
During the 'Day of Disaster', the barracks outside Lord City were bombed to the sky, and the army suffered heavy casualties. It can almost be said that the entire army was wiped out.
And after losing the deterrence of the army, some hidden bandits became eyeing Lord.
Although Lord has experienced the 'Day of Disaster', in the eyes of these bandits, he is still a piece of fat.
wealth of the people.
Municipality's stockpile.
There are also many merchants' goods.
It's all they can't ask for on weekdays.
Now have a chance
Naturally, he refused to let it go.
In the past few days, Bondy and Hall have led the police to repel the bandits more than once, but both of them can feel that these bandits are just probing. These bandits are testing Lord City's last defense force.
The real attack did not begin.
But, it's coming soon.
As early as the first time after the 'Day of Disaster' happened, Bundy had already sent a telegram to the capital Terte through the mayor's office.
The ambassador from the capital arrived three days ago and brought good news. Turt will send an army of 2,000 people to temporarily station in Lorde to help Lorde restore peace.
It will arrive in about a week.
Throwing away the three days when the ambassador came, there are only four days left in this time.
To put it simply, in order to avoid a direct conflict with the army, those bandits will definitely launch a real attack within these four days.
And it just so happened that Tanier was tied up at this time.
"Is it about those bastards?"
Bundy asked softly.
"I don't know."
"However, it is very likely."
"Boss, what shall we do?"
Hall asked in a low voice.
At this moment, the two were in the office of the Lode City Police Department, and outside the office were busy police officers. Because of the 'Disaster Day', the police station specially recruited a group of Lode locals.
They're all great guys who know everything.
Perhaps due to lack of training, some even used revolvers for the first time.
However, at this time, Bundy and Hall can no longer take care of so much.
After directly sending a telegram to the director who was on vacation by the sea, he was granted special approval.
These lads work hard.
When fighting bandits, you can also charge under the leadership of veterans.
But both Bundy and Hall knew that it was the role of the bellwether.
Once the leader is lost
These boys who were ordinary residents a week ago are just a little younger.
Therefore, at this time, some information cannot be leaked.
For example: bandits will launch unprecedented attacks.
As for Tanier being kidnapped
This can be said.
Tanier concealed his identity as a "mysterious side person" in front of these boys, but appeared as a consultant just like Jason, and these boys didn't know Tanier's true identity.
And those who know are naturally tight-lipped.
"How many of us are there now?"
"There are more than one hundred and thirty people in total."
"Among them, there are nearly 100 new recruits. They have been stepping up their training these days. At least there is no problem with reloading and aiming. They won't close their eyes when they shoot, but the accuracy is not good enough."
Hall said truthfully.
"In addition to the normal sentry posts, I will take ten veterans there first, and you will be responsible for supporting them."
Bundy stood up as he spoke, raised his hand and took off the gun belt on the side.
With his good friend Jason as a role model, Bundy also fell in love with the gun belt-carrying two guns at the same time, and hiding one in the windbreaker pocket, and then, the feeling of filling every buckle with bullets is really solid.
In fact, it's not just Bundy who does this.
Hall and other police officers did the same.
Then, with Finch who went to the 'Winchester Brothers Gun Workshop' as a logistics support, such gun belts spread rapidly.
"Bring the explosives."
"And kerosene."
Hall exhorted.
From their friend Jason, they learned not only a gun belt, but also how to deal with some "mysterious side" existence.
Bullets can't solve it
That's dynamite!
If one is not enough, just two.
Really not, and kerosene.
In short, under the flames of the explosion, it is the only reliance for ordinary people to fight against the 'mysterious side'.
"Of course."
Bundy nodded and walked out.
Soon, a team of eleven people left the police station.
Then, there was a support team of twenty people led by Hall.
Both teams were heavily armed.
Both teams are very stealthy.
However, in the shadows, he was still spotted by the people staring at the police station.
The corner of the man's mouth turned up.
Then, he walked out of the corner and was about to report.
But a thick, broad hand stretched out from the other's hidden corner.
He covered the opponent's mouth with one hand, and dragged him into the shadows.
The other party was about to struggle subconsciously, but the force on that palm was too great, he couldn't resist at all, only—
"Wooooow!"
