"Wait a minute!" Anthony's voice on the receiver was very angry. James frowned and held the receiver, glanced at the sparse pedestrians, and held the receiver tighter, waiting for the mayor's anger.
"What did you say you did?!" Anthony's voice rose a little higher, "You 'protected' Grande!"
"Yes." James calmed down and lowered his voice, "I need to concentrate. This operation is very dangerous. I did not act while distracted by the energy of those aliens, so I request..."
"What did you do! Damn it! Damn it!" Anthony shouted on the other side of the receiver.
James' ears, which were so painful from the pressure of the public phone, felt numb.
"Hahaha." After scolding Anthony, he suddenly laughed, "Lance, you also know the danger. Haha, if you want to be more dangerous, you succeeded. Is there anything else? No, I'm going to start thinking about it. Why did you write a condolence letter to General Lance?"
James held the receiver tighter, "Mayor! You know what I need!" James' tone was not very good. No one wanted to hear that they were predicted to die, "Without a word,' Grande will handle 'Come and prevarice me! I'm the lawman of Barton City! Not Grande!"
The voice was suppressed enough that it didn't escape the phone booth. The sparse pedestrians still walked by on their own, and no one noticed that this guy had been occupying the phone for a long time.
"Ha!" Anthony on the other side of the receiver laughed even louder. He didn't need to lower his voice. Although the style of the mayor's office was despised by Zach, it had practical features such as sound insulation. I'm afraid he couldn't find a second one. "What do you think? What should I do? Grab two handfuls of bullets and go shoot demons and vampires with you?!"
"What vampire?" Inexplicably, James' thoughts were attracted by a certain name.
"Uh." The voice in the receiver was drawn out, and then the mayor sighed, "James, you did it completely wrong this time! Zach has discovered a problem at the border, and they have discovered vampires. Ganger Luo, the vampire with the ability to shape-shift in the Secret Alliance! Benjamin, the prototype of Alpha! James Lance, you really messed up this time!"
"What?" James frowned. He had seen Benjamin with Alpha's skin fully open and his wolf body. His whole body tensed unconsciously, "It's not a devil, but a vampire?"
There was a long pause in the receiver, "James. You don't think I don't have a report on this kind of cross-city case, do you?"
James was stunned. He spent more than ten minutes describing the case, and then came to the conclusion that the person behind the scenes was a demon. But now Anthony said that he already knew? ! Just like Zach, Anthony just wants to hear James come to the 'correct' conclusion! This is a test!
Anthony on the receiver didn't care what James was thinking right now, "I'll go find Crowley in the morning!"
Another name that made James uncomfortable appeared, and his hands tightened again. On the black microphone, the skin and knuckles began to turn white.
This is the downside of communicating on the phone. Without vision, both parties cannot feel each other's emotional changes immediately.
"She also came to the same conclusion as you and me!" The voice in the receiver emphasized, "Do you understand, James! This is just her conclusion! Not the fact! None of us know the truth. What's going on! It may be that the demons and the Secret Alliance have united. It may be that Gangero was captured by the demons, or it may be two different things at all! That would be even worse. We have no idea what you will face. Situation! You may be involved in a battle between vampires and demons!"
"Even Zach is waiting for news about Wander in Newton City..."
James' mood suddenly calmed down completely, "This is how it should be." He interrupted Anthony, "No case is clear when it first appears. Mayor, this is why you support our police. .You seem to have forgotten.”
The receiver suddenly became completely quiet, and James' hand holding the receiver gradually relaxed, "Mayor, Anthony, I don't think I need your advice."
hang up the phone.
There is a price to pay for being chic. James leaned against the wall before he could take a few more steps and pulled up his sweaty collar.
Our young police detective worked hard to adjust his breathing, feel the midday sun, and let his mind work again.
The original purpose of this call was to ask Anthony for advice on how to identify the devil in the first place. The purpose of this mission is to find the identity of the 'question mark'. James thinks this is meaningless at all. The devil has a new identity when he changes his container, so the only way to completely close the case is to kill him as soon as possible!
As for the way to kill the devil, James decided to ask Seth for his soul-killing weapon. Otherwise, he would bring this professional demon hunter with him. As for the channel through which Coulson would ask the 'general' for it, People, it's that simple.
Therefore, James is not conceited. He has already planned it well. The Barton Police Department can definitely win this case!
But now, there's a problem with this plan, because Anthony lets it slip that there's a vampire Gangaro.
James slid down slowly against the wall. No matter how dirty the street near the southeast was, he just sat down against the wall and thought.
Chief Colon believed that the Newton Police Department was just an errand boy for the Newton gang, and wanted to catch this escaped 'question mark'. James agreed, because he knew that there were such things as aliens in the world, and they were around them. Chapman might even be the future Barton Police Department and become an errand boy for gangs in the southeast.
Newton's gang may have been occupied by demons, or it may have always been occupied by aliens who were originally in Newton. From the description of the case that James saw, he was more inclined to believe the latter - that the question mark was the devil. Because James knew that the devil's purpose would eventually fall on harvesting souls, and Newton's cases were all about executing this purpose.
Anthony's words made James shaken. If creating vicious cases is not to harvest souls, what would be the reason? Does Gangro like to turn food into poison
James couldn't grasp the relationship between Gangro and the devil. He shook his head irritably and punched the ground with his fists.
James stood up, scowling, deciding not to care. Everything is going according to the original plan, get Seth talking first! As for the vampire Gangero, James forced himself to repeat one sentence in his mind - aim for the heart!
Entering the southeast, James' purpose was clear, heading directly to the general's rest stop. He didn't drive, and he only had one afternoon to become a completely different person. Integrate into the character - a young man from outside who has just come to Barton, has accomplished nothing, and is running into obstacles everywhere. James needs to seize every moment to cultivate his emotions.
James draws inspiration from himself and Madison.
As for Wes' character, for the sake of authenticity, the two will not have any communication. However, based on James' understanding of his friend, he is probably a character who reflects his true colors.
On the entire street, only the front door of the "General" bar had a neon sign hanging unexpectedly. In the setting, James will walk in and crawl out. The ideal situation is to come out with a weapon in your hand that can kill demons. What almost happened was that Seth followed behind, it just depends on how Coulson communicated.
Of course, it was also for real needs. James didn't know what would happen after he entered. All this was left to his handover person, Coulson. James touched the crumpled hundreds of dollars in his pocket, and walked into the bar with complete trust in his partner.
"Hey! Seth. Your guy is here!" The 'General's head poked out of the small box at the back.
James waved his hand to disperse the diffuse smoke. Before he could see his surroundings clearly, a fist quickly enlarged in front of his eyes!
"Oh!" There were cheers all around.
Seth grabbed James' retreating body, grabbed his collar with his broad palm, pulled him closer, and punched him again!
James slumped to the ground, the devil! Used superhuman strength!
"I looked like a pretty strong guy before." The voice of 'General' came from far away. Stopping in front of James curled up on the ground, "Why did it only take two punches?" There was an obvious 'tsk' sound.
James' face was already blue. He kept his mouth shut to prevent the lunch from spraying out from the wrong place, and pressed his forehead against the ground.
Seth picked up James. He pressed him on the bar, violently pulled his hands away, and pressed them against his back.
The 'General' held a cigar and walked slowly to James. He reached into James's pocket and grabbed a few crumpled bills. He raised his eyebrows and said, "What is this? Interest rate." ?"
The banknotes were thrown aside, and a clerk immediately gathered them up, counted them, and then replied with a playful smile, "The interest is still two hundred short!"
The 'General' looked around, held a cigar and pressed it against James' side. The burning front end with red light dangled in front of James' eyes, "Outlander! Are you considered to be in your place?" interest?”
'The General' winked at James.
But James couldn't accept the other person's eyes at all, because he could already feel his eyelashes curling and then falling off!
"I know you are a foreigner, so I won't embarrass you. I'll find you a teacher who will teach you how to calculate Barton's interest." The 'General' patted James Seth and held him down, "Teach him until he knows how to do it." He waved his hand. , "Get out."
James felt that his shoulder was about to break, and he was stunned when Seth lifted him from behind and pushed him out of the door.
Just after leaving the bar, James was pushed into the alley by Seth. This should be the opportunity Coulson arranged for James to be alone. James really couldn't praise his partner. As for whether to get a weapon or not, it all depends on how much James' eloquence can be used under severe pain.
"Needless to say." Seth frowned and stopped James who was about to speak. "I won't give it to you. I will follow you. Now, run!"
James' eyelids were wide open with half of his eyelashes missing. Just as he was about to speak, Seth punched him. James lowered his head subconsciously and actually dodged it!
Without any further hesitation, James started running.
Seeing James' figure retreating quickly, Seth still frowned, glanced at the undead beside him, and twitched the corner of his mouth.
Dylan really didn't want to come to Seth so early, but after hearing what he brought, Crowley asked him to come here directly. Crowley said, "James is thinking about Seth's dagger. If you really want to help him, go to Seth's place."
Dylan asked why for Zach and himself.
Crowley's answer was rude, "I raped him, and I know everything about him. So I also know that he will never stand on my side, and let Zach never say 'give it to me' in the future. This It’s so fake that it makes people sick.” (..)
