The Fire Chaser of the Collapsing World

"Card! Card!"

The strong man with the gun pulled the trigger twice more, but he ran out of bullets, so he could only pull up his feet and continue chasing.

"Humph……"

Cosmo snorted, covered his side waist, and continued to run wildly.

While running, he quickly glanced at his palm, and the bright red blood had already overflowed.

It's okay if you don't look at it, there was only a slight pain at first, and it was just that the waist was a little cold, but now, with the movement of his feet deep and shallow, the tearing and burning sensations at the wound are so obvious.

[I was shot?No, it should not be possible! 】

The palm quickly swept across the waist, and as expected, a splashed wooden wedge was inserted into the flesh.

His hand quickly swept across the pocket of his trousers, there was a small bulge inside, so he couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief:

【Fortunately, the evidence is not lost, as long as this is handed over to Sister Anna as agreed, then the things here will be known to the outside world, and everyone will be saved...】

[To be honest, I have recently followed up, changed sources, and have many voices for reading aloud, .yeguoyuedu Android and Apple are both available. 】

Holding this belief, he continued to run, running numbly, leaving a long line of blood on the road behind him, like some kind of indescribable rope that tied him indifferently, but did not Bind his steps.

The road gradually narrowed, the light and shadow gradually dimmed, the ground became muddy, and the air was filled with a pungent smell of decay.

I don't know if it's because of the uneven road. Cosmo staggered and supported the wall beside him out of inertia, but he didn't stop there—the slender arm bent and exerted force. As soon as Cosmo's thin body touched the wall, It bounced quickly like a basketball full of air, and continued to run staggeringly.

[This is No. 600 Croonne Street. Just run [-] meters ahead and turn left into Boro No. [-] Street, and you will be able to successfully lead them into the shack area where people are messy. Once you get there, getting out is a simple matter ! 】

It can be 600 meters... 600 meters!

This distance may not be a big deal alone, but if you consider that he has already run five or six kilometers with injuries, and if you consider that he has been in a state of embarrassment due to lack of food and clothing, this last part of the journey has become a camel. The last straw.

[Is it not enough, then it seems that the only way to do it is the second method. 】

The pain kept stimulating his nerves, his steps became slower and slower, and the sound of footsteps behind him became more and more clear, but the fear he imagined did not appear.

No, it's not "not yet", but "not yet".

Before he even had time to be afraid, there was a burst of pressure on his shoulder, followed by a pain in his ankle, and his whole body fell forward uncontrollably.

"cough……"

The painful coughing sound from the short vibration of the chest cavity was quickly pushed back by two knees, one left and one right.

Two strong men cut his arms back, and another two strong men stepped on his knees, pushing him down on the cold stone bricks.The soil from Nianhu Lake squeezed out from the cracks in the bricks and soon covered the stone bricks.

"With this appearance, you are the vigilante who has recently gained fame?"

The burly man with a pistol on his waist circled around him and asked with great interest.

"Hey! You kid, let me tell you what? Do you really think you can do it as a 'vigilante' in a small town like Fario? How dare you play this trick in Attica-bah! Here How can you need a half-grown child to uphold justice. Things, hand them over!"

But Cosmo just stiffened his neck and didn't say a word.

"I'm a bit stubborn...Call me!"

【good chance! 】

The moment the strong men let go of Cosmo's hands and feet, his wrist flicked, and a pellet-shaped smoke bomb slipped from the hidden pocket in his sleeve.

"Peng!"

The autonomous short-fuze smoke bomb exploded quickly, and the choking smell of smoke permeated instantly.

A strong man kicked at "Cosmo" in the direction in his memory, but obviously all of them failed.

Before he retracted his foot, he suddenly felt a pain in his wrist.

"what!"

First the kicking foot, and then the standing foot, in an instant, Cosmo broke his hamstring.

Then the young man jumped up on all fours and pushed the strong man who couldn't stand to the ground...

"Puff" - "Puff" - "Puff", blood spilled onto Cosmo's hands, blood splashed onto Cosmo's face, the warm, sticky and slippery feeling woke him up - he had been trying The avoided skirmish finally happened.

Without further hesitation, before the others could react, he cut the strong man's throat with a single knife, and then rushed out of the smoke, his back gradually blending into the late night.

[Is it thrown away now? 】

In the closed alley, after confirming that there were no more footsteps chasing after him, Cosmo breathed a sigh of relief.

With that breath, the momentum from the adrenaline surge slowly dissipated, so he could feel the pain of knuckles from being too hard, he could feel the burning of his lungs, he could feel the pain in his waist. The coldness of the wound.

【It’s not far from the stronghold... Forget it, let’s lean here for a while and rest for a while...】

His body fell back feebly, onto the wall that wasn't cold.

【etc!Why does this wall have temperature! 】

Cosmo turned his head back in horror, and when he looked at each other, he saw a pair of silver-gray pupils.

Before his thoughts could react, his body had already made a decision—the blood-stained knife in his hand drew an arc in mid-air, and quickly stabbed the waist and abdomen of the person behind him.

It wasn't until the tip of the knife was about to touch the man's body that he hesitated belatedly——

【not good!Maybe he's not a bad guy! 】

But it's too late!

"when!"

Cosmo's eyes fell to the ground with the broken knife point, and then jumped on the ground twice, and then showed an incredible expression.

Then, his sight was covered by a shadow, which was the big hand of the person in front of him slowly grabbing at him.

He wants to resist, but he doesn't know how to resist, or he hasn't had time yet...

But then his shoulders sank, and he realized that the other party just patted him on the shoulder.

"Hello, Cosmo."

Chapter 5 Mission: Impossible

"Well, yes, that's right, the target's whereabouts have been found, besides Mikael and Alicia, there is also that little girl, yes, that little girl named Xier."

"Just keep an eye on it. There's no need to take too many actions to avoid being exposed... Anna, I'm talking about you. Did you contact the target without authorization?"

"Yes, that's right. After all, he is also a legendary figure."

"Ai—ai—how should I put it, based on what I know about him, based on the few moments you have been in contact with him, he should have reversed all our lines.

Anna instinctively wanted to refute, but when the words came to her lips, she just said indifferently: "I see, Team Leader Erwin."

Erwin was a little speechless, what does "I see" mean?It's neither apologetic nor opinionated, really...

But well...

"By the way, Anna! You've been on missions, so maybe you don't know about my relationship with them...hehe...that...I have signed photos and notebooks of Mikael and Alicia here. Don’t think about it? Just 998, two photos and a full set of notebooks to take home!”

Anatya paused, hesitated, and asked gently and considerately, "Captain Erwin?"

"Huh? What's the matter? This is a limited-time offer! If you think it's expensive, I have a copy of "Mikael and Alicia's Gossip Collection" written by me personally and reviewed by Cang Xuan and Dan Zhu...you can I will give you the first volume for free! If you are inconvenient to accept mail, I will arrive in Attica in two days... Hehehe, we can trade offline..."

"Captain Erwin...are you sick?"

"..."

Anadia hung up the communication, she walked through the noisy shanty town, still clutching the SD card she just got from Mikael.

The air was filled with a disgusting smell of sweat and rancidity. She wrapped her body in a wide cloak and hood, and from time to time lowered her head and coughed lightly—after all, beauty would bring a lot of trouble in an area where fish and dragons mixed together.

Although she was not afraid, troubles like this should be prevented before they happen.Besides, the accumulation of small troubles will lead to big troubles. If one or two layers of identity are accidentally exposed, the loss outweighs the gain.

Someone bumped her shoulder suddenly. Anatya raised the corners of her lips and hooked her fingers backward. While taking back her own mobile phone, she also took a silver coin from the thief's pocket.

"Cut, wither trick."

When the little thief realized that he had met a master, and turned around, Anna's figure had already merged with the night, and it was impossible to distinguish him anymore.

"crunch-"

"Boom!"

The old metal door was roughly closed, shaking off a pile of brittle paint and iron filings.

Anna walked towards the darkest place lightly, without making a sound the whole time, until a chill came from her neck, and she stopped in her tracks.

[Recommended, Yeguo Reading and Chasing Books is really easy to use, download .yeguoyuedu here, everyone can try it quickly. 】

"It's me, Cosmo."

The young man had already recognized the smell on her body for the first time, so that before she could utter the words of self-defense, the dagger hung around her neck was withdrawn.

"Anna."

Cosmo yelled faintly, and then turned on the lights in the room again.

"Why did you take the extra step and let the sd card pass through the hands of a third party? If he... wouldn't all our previous efforts be in vain?"

Anna didn't reply, but looked down at the boy who was half a head shorter than her, and tapped his head lightly.

"Let's take a look at your injuries first."

"Uh...uh..."

Cosmo couldn't speak for a while, so he could only lie obediently on the bed made of three iron chairs.

The wound on the waist and abdomen has scabbed over, it seems that the wooden thorn did not penetrate deeply, or maybe Mikael gave a helping hand in secret?

On the contrary, the burn on his left hand was more serious. His self-made smoke bomb exploded almost instantly, and, unlike professional smoke bombs that release smoke slowly, it exploded the shell with a small amount of gunpowder, allowing the smoke inside to be discharged quickly. Time obscures sight.

It is inevitable that you will hurt yourself.

Fortunately, the black powder is not very lethal, so Anatya cleaned up the black powder residue left in the palm of Kos demon with the light, sprayed iodine to disinfect, and then applied a layer of ointment, and finally covered it with a new layer of gauze. Wrapped in layers, a small bow was tied on the back of the hand.

"I'm sorry, Cosmo, for making you do such a dangerous thing this time."

"No...it's fine."

"The reason for letting that SD card pass through that gentleman's hand is my own consideration. Cosmo, you also know... After all, I am an official investigator, and I only have the right to report the matter. As for how to deal with it... ...I can't interfere. But that man is different, he is not an official force, maybe...he may have other ways to solve this matter..."

"..."

"Okay! The matter is over, you can rest well in the next few days!"

Ana smiled, but Cosmo remained silent.

"Anna, you still don't want to tell me..."

[Still unwilling to tell me... the source of various disasters in the past few years...]

"Don't think about it so much."

Anadia put on the tattered hooded cloak again.

She silently walked to the rusted iron door, then turned around again:

"Sure enough, I still can't help but tell you... Cosmo, your birthday will be in two days, you might as well guess now, what gift I want to give you?"

"..."

[I'm not a child anymore, I don't need any birthday presents. 】

[Is it cool to say that?Wait, it seems a bit too repulsive to be thousands of miles away...]

[Then how should I answer?Could it be that he really showed an excited expression like a child...I can't do it...]

"install……"

【Eh?Why is she missing? 】

Anna continued to walk through the night, and the collective power supply system of the entire city had long since stopped functioning, so there was a real night.

Fortunately, she has been here for more than a year, and she is used to this darkness anyway.

After all, the reason why people can feel the darkness is because the light has not completely disappeared - she raised her head, and a corner of the moon was exposed between the dark clouds.

A white shadow flashed before her eyes, and Anna blinked. The gray and white was so dazzling in the dark alley, she couldn't be mistaken.

But when she followed the traces of the impression to look for it, it was gone.

[It should be just a white cat, how can there be such a small Honkai beast? 】

She was no longer obsessed with this question, but based on the impression in her memory, she found a basement only by groping in the dark.
