Man in the old days, Lord of the Seven Sins

Chapter 19 The Remnants of the Old Times
Old calendar April 1588, 4, rain.

The gray sky, as bad as Will's mood at the moment.

On the night his mother disappeared, he only thought that his mother went to a few friends' houses to play cards as usual, and he didn't take it seriously.

It wasn't until the next day, when everyone was preparing to eat lunch, that they realized that something was missing in the small cafeteria.

The cursing sound like the old mother disappeared, and Ms. Angelina, who was always kind to give everyone a colander, did not stand at the familiar window and bless the couple in the old London dialect with a fluent English accent. Young men who have not yet married find their wives earlier.

What was left was the cold iron plate and the stack of ingredients stored in the corner of the kitchen. They seemed to be mocking the group of young people, failing to protect the lady who had always brought them warmth.

The cold feeling made everyone uncomfortable.

Will fell into endless annoyance.

If it weren't for his carelessness, he wouldn't have found out the day after his mother disappeared.

Rhodes was silent.

He took out a leaf of wormwood from his pocket, stuffed it into his mouth, and chewed.

The unique sedative effect of wormwood forced his brain to calm down.

The disappearance of Ms. Angelina is obviously a major event, at least for everyone in the slaughterhouse, and especially for Rhodes.

After getting along for a short time, Rhodes felt a wave of enthusiasm from Angelina. It was her presence that made the soldiers who had retreated from the battlefield feel at home again. Otherwise, they were just a group of machines that only knew how to kill .

"Someone has snatched Ms. Angelina, we must find her immediately!"

In the cafeteria, Rhodes stood in front of everyone.

"Find Ms. Angelina!"

Everyone got up one after another, almost with angry expressions on their faces, Ms. Angelina was their goddess.

The food she cooks can always make them feel at home for the soldiers who have lost their loved ones.

But today, someone actually dared to snatch from their side the only person who could make them feel like a loved one.

This is unforgivable!
"George, you arrange for someone to notify Gnar of the Affairs Section, let some people settle down and don't mess with us, and then you and Will take people to the area where Ms. Angelina often goes to find , I will personally go to the market she went to find it yesterday." Rhodes said in a low voice.

George nodded and left with some people.

Will hesitated. He looked at Rhodes and said in a low voice, "Boss, it's my mother who is missing. I should go to the most dangerous place."

Rhodes shook his head.

"Don't worry, there are some things that too many people will scare the snake. What's more, my strength has been recognized by Robert, so don't worry."

The clues obtained by the Administration forced Rhodes to link the disappearance with that even worse matter.

Although Will has the power to fight against demons, his cold weapon fighting strength is not as strong as his own after all, and he still has the M500 that Robert gave him, which is really dangerous. It will be more convenient for him to act alone Some.

And the most important point, if Ms. Angelina is really killed, I can still deal with it calmly, but for Will, something may happen.

Rhodes didn't want to see this happen.

"Then you must pay attention to safety!" Will held Rhode's hand with both hands, his eyes were red, obviously he was in a bad mood at the moment.

"Leave it to me. You take someone to the places where Ms. Angelina often goes. I hope she is just playing too hard with her friends."

"I hope so."

Will took the people away.

Seeing the loss of the lively cafeteria, Rhodes silently closed the door of the slaughterhouse.

The Old London Slaughterhouse, today, all members are dispatched!

The movements of the remnant party in the old days naturally attracted the attention of a group of people who followed them all the year round.

The Old London Authority Affairs Section, as an existence at the same level as John's investigation section, their job is to ease social stability, reduce the occurrence of news that is not conducive to the old London government, and at the same time manage the group of people from the Battle of Pajavaro Return to the warriors of old London after the end.

The Old London Slaughterhouse existed as a huge force among the remnants of the old era, and the name of the head of the slaughterhouse, Robert, had long been engraved in the hearts of every member of the affairs department.

Originally, this group of remnants of the old era lived the lives of ordinary people, and they had not moved for a long time, and the attention of the affairs department to them has decreased a lot.

But I don't know which informant just delivered a message to the affairs department.

Let the entire affairs department be in a state of extreme tension from top to bottom.

Old London Slaughterhouse, all staff are dispatched!

These fucking machines are a group of killing machines that kill demons without blinking an eye. Although their large weapons used to deal with demons have been confiscated, it does not prevent them from keeping some small weapons.

If this group of people make a fuss, I'm afraid half of old London will be affected, they really dare.

Your bonus and performance will be deducted!

Who are the blind guys who offended this group of guys?
Sitting in the office, Gnar, the chief of the affairs department, only felt a headache.

As a person who can become a section chief at the age of 40, Gnar's professional level is still high.

He immediately figured out one of the key points.

That was the one who sent the message to him, it must be the group of guys from the old London slaughterhouse.

They are warning themselves not to meddle in their own business, and let themselves find out the key to the incident as soon as possible.

Gnar looked at the note on the table, the information on the note was simple.

"Miss Angelina, Chef at the Old London Slaughterhouse, is missing."

He is very passive now.

Looking at a group of subordinates who were as brave as quails, Gnar's mood became even worse.

"Check it out, let me check it out, I just sit in the office drinking tea and fishing, now you don't even know how to do your work!?"

"Who exactly provoked these old guys!"

"And this Ms. Angelina, you all go out and look for me now, if you can't find anyone, don't even think about everyone's bonuses and performance this year!!!" Gnar slapped the table and roared angrily.

Originally, the administrative department was a very leisurely retirement job, and Gnar hoped that this job would allow him to make more money, but who knew that such a big mess would happen, he was really anxious.

Thinking of this, he recently heard that the investigation department is currently investigating the disappearance of women. Do you want to try to cooperate with them?

Gnar decided to have a chat with the chief to see if he could send someone to him.

Old London Westport.

A coastal area was developed by the old London government after investing a lot of money, and it became the largest commodity handling port in old London. At the same time, the fishery resources here are also quite good.

Angelina usually goes here to buy ingredients.

Because there is a large farmers' distribution market here.

The ingredients sold all year round are much cheaper than those in other markets, especially fish.

The carriage is parked on the side of the street.

Rhodes got out of the car.

There was a melodious flute sound in the distance.

A huge steamer blew its horn and headed out to sea.

Rhodes turned his gaze back to the chaotic market in front of him.

Dirty sewers, chicken and duck feces are mixed everywhere, and there are even naked children pouring water into the stinky ditch.

Rhodes held a black umbrella and looked at the note in his hand. These were the shops Ms. Angelina frequented that Will had given him.

He decided to ask every family.
