Calamity Island: Endless Trials

Chapter 46 The Last Hour
Suddenly, on the high platform, the mayor said something to the gray-haired sheriff next to him, who then stepped forward and announced loudly.

"Everyone, be quiet, I'm going to announce something to you now."

"In view of this blood moon night, we killed twelve werewolves, and then we decided to give a special commendation, and several sheriffs will tour the town together."

Tang Jiumin reacted like the others, raising his head in surprise.

This is not normal.

In previous years, every blood moon night ended, there was no celebration.

Of course, soon, Tang Jiumin knew what kind of link this was.

The town will send a team of sheriffs, each of whom will bind a werewolf head with iron chains, and show the town people along the road, showing everyone the results of this time.

The crowd cheered.

Tang Jiumin smiled as he listened to the mayor's announcement of the sheriff's touring exhibition.

Justified this time.

This link seems logical, but the girl with werewolf blood, her sheriff's father is also on the tour.

That is to say, in the next time, the sheriff must tour the whole town and cannot return home.

Tang Jiumin was thinking about his next plan when he suddenly saw a familiar person in his field of vision.

He squeezed into the crowd and slowly approached the booth. Soon, he saw a caravan leader he had known before, Gal.

"Hey, Gal."

"Tang! Oh, I didn't expect to see you here, what? Is the elephant capture gun useful?" Seeing Tang Jiumin, Gal showed a warm expression.

Tang Jiumin nodded, the time was running out, he didn't talk too much, just chatted with Gal for a few words, and then stated his purpose.

"Gal, I have a problem. I have a friend who did something after drinking and wanted to ask a sheriff for help, but it's hard to ask me directly. I want to find out the sheriff's wife and where she lives. I like it. What, let's come to visit."

With that said, Tang Jiumin pointed to the stage.

"That's the sheriff."

"You said that, of course I know. You must know that I am an old businessman in the small town. George, please introduce to Tang."

"Okay, no problem..."

The guy George brought by Gal seemed to be a chatter. After saying a lot of information in one breath, he pointed to the vicinity of the booth.

"Look, that woman is the sheriff's wife."

"That's great, thank you, I'll go and have a look first."

Tang Jiumin approached slowly, and after a while, he came behind the woman. He pretended to be staring at the stage attentively, and unconsciously praised the man on stage.

Sentence after sentence of praise blurted out. At this moment, Tang Jiumin seemed to be a flatterer, and the woman's ears stood up in front of her when she said a sentence.

".The sheriff on the far right, he is an excellent sheriff!"

The woman in front of her couldn't help but be curious. She turned to look at Tang Jiumin, looking very happy.

"Thank you for your affirmation of my husband."

Tang Jiumin looked at the woman in surprise.

"What do you mean... oh my god, you are the wife of the sheriff? God, what a coincidence, I adore your husband so much, especially since he has helped me a lot these past two days."

"This time I was able to kill a werewolf and get a bounty. Thanks to his care in the Sheriff's Office, I can't forget such kindness."

When he said this, he couldn't help but look around, and whispered in the ear.

"I'm looking for your husband. I can't take such a large bounty by myself, don't you think?"

"I want to visit in person at noon and express my gratitude."

In an instant, the woman understood what Tang Jiumin meant.

In Moonhowl, there are fewer than 100 sheriffs.

Although they are supported by the mayor and earn more money than many ordinary people, they are still limited.

If someone usually bribes a woman, she may have to think about it. After all, her husband can talk to the public security bureau, and there are many people who ask him.Ordinary bribes are not acceptable to women, but in the face of large bounties for killing werewolves, women cannot refuse.

She had heard her husband talk about it, a full eighty gold coins!
The woman was obviously happy, but after being happy for a while, she shook her head in distress.

"Today is really not good, Director Milton, the gray-haired sheriff on the stage, his wife invited us to the party, I can't lose face to her."

"Is it so unfortunate?" Tang Jiumin's expression was a little regretful.

"However. Tonight is also possible. Mr. Sheriff has helped me a lot. It's fine to wait for a while."

Between the words, Tang Jiumin's eyes were full of gratitude, and then he bowed politely.

However, the moment he lowered his head, the look in his eyes suddenly became serious.

He is now almost certain that the mayor will definitely attack the sheriff's daughter. The sheriff has been taken away, and his woman has been taken away. Now the sheriff's daughter is the only one in the sheriff's family.

For the eager mayor, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Moreover, such an opportunity was directly caused by the mayor.

After making an appointment with the sheriff's wife about the so-called time and place, Tang Jiumin left the square and went straight to the sheriff's house.

There was no time, he had to ambush ahead of the mayor's action.

At the same time, in a house south of the center of Yuehao Town.

Emily is preparing meals for her parents at home. She is very happy, because her father is the sheriff, and the town on the night of the blood moon is very chaotic. She is afraid that something will happen to her father.

Especially those werewolves, the sheriff is going to patrol at dawn, and Emily can't even imagine what will happen if she encounters those werewolves that haven't been evacuated.

Well now, there are powerful bounty hunters in the town. In just a few days, they have killed so many werewolves. They are really heroes of the town!

In the future, after the next blood moon night, there may not be so many werewolves.

Buckle, buckle.

Suddenly, just after Emily finished preparing the meal, she heard someone knocking on the door outside.

strangeness?Who is this time?
"Who is it?"

Emily muttered in her mouth, came to the door in doubt, picked up a stool, and looked out through the small window on the door.

In the field of vision is a young man, who looks a little handsome compared to the rough people in the town.

With a strange firearm on his shoulder, he was looking at himself with a gentle face.

Bounty Hunter?

"who are you?"

"I'm a bounty hunter. I just asked your mother, and she told me that my home is here. I should be right?"

"You are……?"

"I want to give something to Mr. Sheriff. On the night of the blood moon, I killed a werewolf and received a lot of help from Mr. Sheriff. I came here to thank you."

Tang Jiumin stood outside and spoke to the people inside.

Those bounty hunters who worshiped werewolves, and now heard one of them appear in front of her, Emily was very excited.

But because she was a stranger, Emily was still a little wary.

"You said my father killed a werewolf for you, is that true? What evidence do you have?"

Tang Jiumin was already prepared, he took out a small box and held it in his arms.

"This is the bounty box you got from the police after killing the werewolf. I don't know if you've seen it before."

Bounty box?

Emily cocked her feet in the chair, and through the window, she saw the luxurious little box in the other's hand.

She recognized that her father had shown her.

The bounty alleys where the mayor paid the bounty were all such luxurious special boxes.

Yes!That's right!This person outside, he is a hero who killed the werewolf!
When Emily saw this scene, she immediately believed what the other party said, so she carefully opened the door, pushing it as wide as she could.

The town is too chaotic recently. I heard that there are many robbers and criminals. They have mixed into the bounty hunters, and they have even attacked the werewolf.

When the girl heard her father come back, she told her that if she was the only one at home, then don't open the door to strangers.

So even though she believed Tang Jiumin's words, she was still very careful.

"Dear sir, you can put your things here first, and come back at night. My family is gone, so I'm going to the celebration."

"it is good."

Tang Jiumin nodded, put the box in front of the door, opened his hands and slowly stepped back.

He opened a moderate distance to make the other party feel more at ease, and to dispel the last doubt in the girl in front of him.

And Emily's psychological changes at the moment were just as Tang Jiumin had predicted. She saw the other party slowly retreating, and she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

It appears to be true.

So, Emily opened the door a little more, walked to the heavy box, picked it up with both hands, and slowly moved towards the door.

"call……"

It's too heavy.

so tired.

Emily, who was holding the box in both hands, didn't even have time to close the door after entering the door, so she could only use her feet to tie the door and close the door.

Because of this, she didn't realize that when she closed the door, there was a piece of cloth on the top of the door, which was stuck in the crack of the door to prevent the door from closing.

"Wow..." Emily's attention was all on the box. She took a lot of effort to carry the box to the table. When she opened it, there was about half a box of gold coins.

However, at this moment, a sound came from her ear.

Low footsteps.

Emily turned around quickly in surprise, and found that the man who had just left had somehow come to her house and was standing behind her.

The other party held a revolver in his hand, and the muzzle was aimed at her.

"You, what are you doing..."

Emily looked at Tang Jiumin in horror, backed away in fear, and slammed into the table behind, almost knocking the box off.

"save……"

Seeing that the frightened girl wanted to shout for help, Tang Jiumin immediately made a silent gesture, and quickly covered the other's mouth with his left hand to prevent him from shouting.

"Don't shout, time is urgent, I hope you can cooperate with my next actions, as long as you don't destroy my plan without authorization, I will not hurt you."

Tang Jiumin's tone was still gentle, but looking at the girl's face was full of indifference and no emotion.

Emily struggled hard at first, but under the cold gaze of the man, the struggle gradually became smaller, and finally calmed down.

She could see that if she was disobedient, it seemed that this man might actually kill her!

"Very well, it seems that you can listen to me quietly now."

Tang Jiumin saw that the girl's eyes were still very frightened, but she nodded quietly.

So he eased his face a little and said:

"Let me ask the most important question first, do you have a water tank at home?"

----------

In the tent area in the center of the town, people come and go here.

The bounty hunters are in groups, healing the wounds, drinking and drinking, in short, they are all relaxing.

The celebrations are here and the night of the blood moon is over, and it's time to relax and entertain.

Except for very few people.

Outside a tent in the rest area, Liu Ziyun was sitting on the ground, smoking a cigarette, trying to ease his nervousness.

He kept opening and closing the lid of his pocket watch.

The time is getting shorter and shorter, and there is only one hour left until twelve o'clock noon.

However, he did not see Tang Jiumin come back, nor did he hear any system prompts.

Thinking of this, Liu Ziyun looked up at the others around him.

The two students, Cheng Cheng and Qu Fei, have been very close recently. They got together at this time, and they were talking in a low voice with their heads lowered, and they didn't know what they were talking about.

Jing Jiao and Chen Min, standing in different places, were staring at themselves with complicated expressions.

The rest are the injured Jiang Xiong and the bound prisoner Xu Wuqiang. They are not outside, but in the tent.

The nervous Liu Ziyun kept shaking his legs while looking at it, and he didn't even realize it.

He didn't know what Tang Jiumin was going to do, nor did he know what the other party's plan was or what stage it had taken.

But no matter what, he just hoped that Tang Jiumin could get everything done.

Liu Ziyun really didn't want to kill the prisoner, because the other party was already under control.

He needs to face the trial of the law in the court and death in the execution ground. This is the end of the repeat offense, and only then can true justice be given to those who have been hurt by him.

But if here, in order to survive, kill this prisoner, the nature is completely different.

He went from law enforcement to lawbreaker.

Liu Ziyun is a policeman and has always strictly followed the law. He doesn't want to make mistakes here.

He retracted his gaze, and there was always a bad premonition deep in his heart.

He really wanted to take everyone back. The Tavern Rubik's Cube mentioned before that all the teams before them were destroyed, and a temporary team was drawn again.

That means here, everyone can die.

There are still eight people left, which seems to be a good survival rate.

unfortunately
Liu Ziyun thought of Zhong Linrong, the middle-aged woman, Xie Zhiming, and Glenn, and his expression couldn't help darkening.

When they came, there were 12 people in total. Even if there were eight people now, the other four died in this ghost place.

Not even the corpse was returned.

Not being able to be buried in his hometown is a particularly cruel thing.

But just when Liu Ziyun couldn't restrain his wild thoughts, the system suddenly prompted
"There is one hour left until the end of the trial, the current number of werewolves killed: 7, the number of remaining players: 8."

"The trial mission has not been completed."

"Players are requested to actively complete the trial task. If it is not completed within the specified time limit, all personnel will be obliterated!"
