Man in the old days, Lord of the Seven Sins

Chapter 20 You Messed Up With The Wrong Person
dull atmosphere.

oppressive sky.

The gray cloud, which was almost in front of my eyes, was very low.

Later in the day, it rained harder.

The rush of rain is like the gate of the prostate, watering this bad era.

Most shops are closed.

Rhodes asked several companies, but did not get any useful clues.

In his hands, there is only one family left.

This is a fish shop.

Rhodes held a black umbrella, stood in the rain, and observed the strange-looking boss.

He was about six feet tall, with a thin build, and at first glance he looked like a tramp, dressed in shabby fisherman's clothes and a black oil coat.

On his head was a dark straw hat with a broken corner.

If you look closely at his face, you can see that it is quite narrow, as if the flesh on both sides of a person's cheeks has been shaved off.

He has a pair of pale pupils protruding from the eye sockets, which are located on both sides of his eye sockets, and there are three cut lines on the left and right sides of his neck.

It doesn't feel like a normal human being.

He wore a pair of thick rubber shoes, which looked like a size 50, which was asymmetrical to his body.

Marking the other party as a special observation object, Rhodes is going to step forward to ask.

But someone was one step ahead of him.

Looking at the familiar face, the corners of Rhodes' mouth twitched slightly.

John, dressed as a woman again, appeared in a long gray dress.

Rhodes was puzzled, he stopped and decided to continue observing.

In the store, John and the store owner seemed to have a quarrel, and the two got into trouble because of some things.

Rhodes watched quietly.

Soon, John took out a piece of paper from his waist bag.

Rhodes narrowed his eyes. Although he was a little far away, he still recognized the person on the paper, which was the portrait of Ms. Angelina.

Rhodes quickly understood the purpose of John's coming.

This made him even more dissatisfied with the group of idiots in the affairs department, they were simply running faster and faster on a bad road.

Soon, louder quarrels erupted in the store.

"Kano, you idiot, for the sake of our friendship, hurry up and don't make trouble, they are not something you can provoke!" John's cursing sound reached Rhodes' ears .

"John, you can't stop us, the Lord will give us eternal life, and you will eventually become the background of the times."

"I don't care who you are, now, immediately, let me go!"

"How dare you insult our Lord!?"

"Your lord's bonus and performance are worse than my shit. Let me go, you bastard!"

"Oh!"

What responded to John was a hammer.

John's whole body was directly knocked to the ground by the hammer.

Rhodes narrowed his eyes and hid his figure in the shadow under the tree.

Kano, the owner of the fish shop, hammered John over, raised his protruding pale eyes, and looked out of the shop vigilantly.

Confirming that no one noticed the movement in the store, Kano pulled John into the store, and soon he came out dragging a big bag, and loaded the bag on the steam tricycle used to carry goods at the store entrance.

behind the tree.

Rhodes narrowed his eyes, he had no plans to save John.

But this man named Kano really knew about Ms. Angelina's existence, and even in his words, he almost admitted that he was the kidnapper. Now things are easy to handle.

Wait a while.

Kano cleaned up the blood on the ground, he closed the store door, rode a steam tricycle and drove slowly into the alley next to the store.

Rhodes followed slowly and fell behind.

On the south side of the West Port District, a small village near the coast.

Kano's steam tricycle drove into it. Rhodes glanced at the two guards at the entrance of the village who looked like Kano's septage, then looked at the surrounding bushes, turned and walked into the bushes.

This village full of strange feelings, it is obvious that a normal person like myself cannot enter, so he can only find another way.

Rhodes had a good sense of direction. He walked through the tall bushes and through a swamp. In the southeast of the village, he found a hole with a rotting fence.

Enter the village smoothly from this cave.

There was almost no one on the street, but there was a lot of noise from the central square of the village in the distance, and a huge bonfire rose into the sky against the rain.

It seems that the people of this village are gathered there.

Rhodes didn't go to the central square out of curiosity.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and Rhodes walked slowly in the shadow of the village alleyway, looking for Kano's steam tricycle.

He was lucky, and found the car in front of a simple bungalow in the southeast of the village.

The bag containing John was missing from the car.

The bungalow door is locked.

Rhodes walked over slowly, he pulled out the short knife inserted between his legs, and tried to forcefully pry open the lock.

Suddenly there was a shout behind him, and the strange accent was not like the language of old London, but more like the accent from the south.

"Hey, what are you doing there? Everyone is waiting in the square for the sacrificial ceremony to start, so hurry over."

Rhodes turned his head, and out of the corner of his sight, he saw a man with a hatchet in his hand, wearing a gray robe, a tall man who seemed to be a patrol officer who was similar to himself, looking at him.

Rhodes narrowed his eyes, he hid the dagger in the windbreaker, and did not respond.

"Hey, why don't you talk?"

Obviously, Rhodes' attitude of not responding aroused the suspicion of that person.

The man approached slowly, his footsteps became lighter, he raised his hatchet high and prepared to chop.

The sense of crisis made Rhode's scalp gradually numb. He took a deep breath, turned around suddenly, shot out the short knife in his hand, touched the hilt of the rapier at his waist with his right hand, and stepped forward two steps forward.

In the hasty attack, the man could barely block the attack of the short knife with the hatchet. He was just about to make a move, but he felt a strange pain in his chest at this moment.

A black rapier pierced his heart.

The rapier was drawn, and the steam boiled.

Rhodes put the rapier back inside the windbreaker.

Boom!
The man's tall body fell to the ground.

Rhodes picked up the dagger on the ground, walked to the man, and lifted the hood of the man's gray robe.

The appearance of this person is also [-]% similar to Kano.

He stared wide-eyed and glared at Rhodes. Just as he was about to say something, a cold voice suddenly sounded in his ear.

"You messed with the wrong person."

The short knife wiped the opponent's neck, and in the despairing eyes of the opponent, completely cut off the opponent's vitality.

Rhodes dragged the man's body into the shadow of the alley, took off his gray robe, and threw his body into a stinky ditch full of filth on one side.

Putting on a gray robe and a hood, Rhodes picked up the hatchet and prepared to use it to cut off the door lock of Kano's house.

"Luther, let's go, we should go to the sacrifice site."

In the rain curtain in the distance, there was a sudden shout. Rhodes looked up and saw another gray-robed man.

He curled his lips and could only turn around and walk towards the other side.

He could still kill another one, but the current situation, these people seem to be endless, and the more people are killed, the greater the risk of exposure, it is better to observe the situation of the sacrifice first, understand Here's the inside story.

Wait until the sacrifice is over before making any further plans.
