The Devil’s Cage

Chapter 1299: looming

Views:

The members of the Secret Service who blocked Will stepped aside, and the one behind him even opened the door.

They know who to mess with and who not to mess with.

If they didn't care about Will, the people in the room were the ones they had to care about.

In other words, it was because of the people in the room that they had the capital to not care about Will.

Nothing to do with strength.

It is simply an application of power within the rules.

Some people don't care that way.

Some people are happy with it.

Will walked into the ward without saying a word to the two members of the Special Affairs Department in front of him.

It is said to be a ward, but it has a layout beyond imagination.

First impression is big.

After all, it is a room rebuilt by using the entire floor, including a study room, a reception room, a game room, and a specially opened cigar room and wine storage room.

On the basis of these, the seemingly simple furnishings in the room have a sense of introversion, not like the glittering gold of the nouveau riche, but the nobility that can only be displayed by nobles with a long history.

Where does nobility come from

Rare and valuable.

At least Will is very clear that he needs a year's salary to afford a random piece of decoration here.

As we all know, the special operations team has a high salary that ordinary people do not have because of the casualty rate.

Loading value beyond imagination with limited space is a game that many high-level people love to play.

And this ward itself serves the high-level people of edex. In normal times, Will may feel a little uncomfortable, but he won't show it.

But, today.

Looking at everything here, Will always felt very dazzling.

"Will, what's wrong with you?"

The mayor, Sloe Dell, who was wearing a hospital gown, put down the books in his hands. Although he was wearing a hospital gown, the mayor's body was still full of books, and the glasses on the bridge of his nose made it even more impressive. The other party is more like a scholar than an official.

"What happened to the 'ogre incident'?"

"I'm not talking about 30 years ago, but now!"

Will is not one to hide himself.

Moreover, the old consultant didn't think he should hide from Sloe Dell.

"Now… "

Seeing the old consultant with inquiry and anger on his face, Sloe Dell sighed slightly.

"Thirty years ago, I was eager for success."

"I think that's an opportunity."

"A chance to free Idles from the darkness forever, but... ahem, ahem... I'm blindly optimistic, so optimistic that I think I can control everything."

"In the end, I got the punishment I deserved."

There was self-blame and exhaustion in Sloe Dell's voice, and there was even a heart-piercing cough in his words.

Will could see the crimson between the fingers of Sloe Dell's mouth-covering palm.

The old consultant was startled and immediately bent down.

And the polite address has also become intimate, appearing in a kind of address that is only among friends.

"Sloe, your body."

"I'll call you a doctor."

When the scarlet color really came into view, the old consultant was about to press the beeper on the bedside.

However, it was stopped by Sloe Dell.

"it's useless."

"I know my body well. I suffered an irreversible injury 30 years ago, which not only made me lose the ability to continue my offspring, but also caused hidden dangers in my body."

"At this moment, it's just the outbreak of those hidden dangers."

Sloe Dell raised his hand to wipe off the blood with a tissue, and there was a calm smile on his face, as if he had seen through life and death.

"Yes, I'm sorry."

The old consultant's lips moved slightly, and finally, he lowered his head.

Facing Sloe Dell in this state, he couldn't help feeling a little guilty in his heart when he thought of the questioning just now.

"Will, you don't need to apologize."

"Because, I am also very puzzled about the 'ogre incident'!"

"Thirty years ago, everything should have ended!"

"besides… "

Speaking of this, Sloe Dell's voice paused, and the other party, who was still smiling calmly just now, suddenly became uneasy.

"Is it about Carol Del, Carlot Del?"

Will asked.

"Um."

"The disappearance of the two of them, as well as the disappearance of Anne Petunia Lin, and the death of Aymore Moore, I don't think these are irrelevant matters."

"After all, the three of us old guys have an 'unknown secret'!"

After Sloe Dell nodded, he sighed again.

"What about Quick Webster?"

"His death!"

"Sorry, Slo, I don't mean anything else, it's just that their cases all happened at that time, so I naturally associate them together, and, a few hours ago, there were some things that happened to Webster that I can't change in understanding."

Almost subconsciously, Will asked. When the words came out, the old consultant immediately reacted and apologized to Sloe Dell again.

"A change that makes you incomprehensible?"

"what is that?"

Sloe Dell waved his hands indifferently, but there was a hint of curiosity on his face about the 'Webster' that Will said.

"Webster assassinated Speaker Hardy Lynn and was imprisoned in the 'prison'."

When he said this, Will tried to slow down his tone as much as possible.

Although he knew that his old friend must know the news, he didn't want to further stimulate his old friend who was on the verge of collapse.

You must know that Hardy Lin has a good personal relationship with this old friend of hers.

Fortunately, although there was a trace of sadness on Sloe Dell's face, it passed in a flash.

Will breathed a sigh of relief, and then told the full story of what happened to Webster.

"What did you say?"

"Webster is not the body that an old man should have at all. He is even stronger than the average young man?"

Sloe Dell's tone rose uncontrollably.

"Yes."

"Based on the anatomy, we can be sure that Webster's seemingly aged exterior has extraordinary vitality and, moreover, is very strong."

"Even the lads under me are not as good as..."

"Cough cough cough!"

Will nodded and said, but before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Sloe Dell's violent coughing.

Moreover, this time the cough was far worse than before.

When blood spurted from Sloe Dell's mouth, the mayor fell into a coma.

Ding!

Without any hesitation, Will hit the call button.

While the doctors and nurses were busy, Sloe Dell was pushed into the emergency room, and Will, who wanted to follow up, was blocked by two members of the Special Affairs Department.

Looking at the two of them, Will knew that he couldn't get in anyway.

So the old advisor sat down on a bench beside him and prepared to wait patiently.

But the moment he sat down, his neck hurt.

Before the old consultant fell into a coma, he was shocked to find that two members of the Special Affairs Department had fallen to the ground at some point.

After everyone was unconscious, a figure came out of the emergency room.

He didn't stop, and walked out without hesitation.

Therefore, he didn't see that after he left, a member of the Special Affairs Department who should have fallen to the ground and fell unconscious stood up just like that.

"Why is it always me who gets hurt and beaten?"

With such a muttering sound, the member of the Special Affairs Department just disappeared.
