Chapter 18

Lane tried three more icons to figure out what they were for.

One is to take pictures, which can take pictures of the scene you see in front of you and save them, and there is a photo library attached, but they are all empty for the time being. There is another one that should be a translation dictionary. Ren can't be sure, because there is no change after opening it, and it may be that the application method is wrong.

The last one is more interesting, it is actually a music player!

Ren always liked music, and was asked by his mother to learn to play the piano when he was a child. Although he didn't play very well, he still knew a little bit about music. He usually went to play with friends and colleagues, and sang a few songs in KTV, winning a piece of music. applause.

He turned on the music player and found that there were nearly a thousand songs in it, all of which he had downloaded on his phone before.

This was a big surprise for Rennes.

He ordered a song full of anticipation, and the familiar melody sounded in his head, and he was fascinated when he listened to it. Suddenly, he missed everything on the earth and felt a little sad.

After listening to a few songs, Ren sighed softly and turned off the player.

It will soon be daylight.

Ren didn't sleep all night, but he was in good spirits. He went out after breakfast in the hotel lobby.

Asperger and Ramsay are dead, he can go back to the apartment openly, but considering that the bag of money he got last night, the long sword, and the shotgun are not convenient to carry, so he didn't check out immediately, first Hide in the room and deal with it later.

He has to go back to the apartment now to show his face in front of the landlord, otherwise the landlord may report to the city hall and cause trouble for himself.

After taking the bus back to his apartment in Los Angeles, Ren knocked on the door of the landlord's house on the first floor.

A fat middle-aged man in pajamas opened the door with a newspaper under his arm. When he saw Ren, he looked impatient and asked, "Ren, what's the matter with you? Is the water pipe broken again?"

Ryan had come to him twice before because of a leaky pipe in the apartment, which was a long-standing problem in the apartment building.

This building has been built for decades, and the water pipes are so old that they are already unusable. If all the water pipes are replaced with new water pipes, it will cost a lot of money, and this stingy guy is not willing to pay for it.

"Mr. Lennie, good morning."

With a smile on Ren's face, he said, "The day after tomorrow is my time to pay the rent, but I'm busy these days and may not be in the apartment, so I will pay the rent to you in advance."

As he spoke, he handed over the 120 copper liso banknotes he had prepared.

When Lenny heard that it wasn't a water pipe problem, his face softened. He took the money happily, nodded and said, "Actually, it doesn't matter if you pay the rent a few days late, but it's better if you pay the rent earlier. I'm having breakfast, Ren, you want to come together ?"

"Thank you, Mr. Lennie, I've already eaten." Ren refused bluntly, and then left politely.

The landlord was notorious in the street for his miserliness, but he always liked to put on an air of generosity. If he really agreed to the invitation to eat breakfast, he would definitely find ways to deduct the money for the breakfast later.

Back in the apartment on the third floor, it was almost half a month unoccupied, with a thin layer of dust on it.

"If you want to live in the future, you still have to do some cleaning."

Ren cleaned the entire room in half an hour, then washed himself and changed into clean clothes.

He was just about to go out to find an alchemy shop for a soul test, but he heard a conversation between two people on the street.

"115 Corsham Street, Captain, here we are."

This is a beautiful female voice, judging from the voice alone, her age should not be more than thirty years old, and there is a sense of confidence in the voice. When she walked around, there was the sound of metal armor plates colliding. She was obviously wearing armor, and her steps were very heavy. The sound she made was different from others, and it was very easy to identify.

What responded to her was a simple man: "It's this apartment building, that's right, let's go up, room 308 on the third floor."

On the contrary, the man's footsteps were extremely light and nimble, like a cat walking.

Ren was shocked when he heard that, his apartment number was Room 308!

Are these two people looking for me?

He immediately locked on the source of the sound. Two footsteps, one light and one heavy, came from the lobby on the first floor. They had already entered the apartment and quickly set foot on the stairs.

Judging from the sound of footsteps, these two people are most likely extraordinary people, and it is impossible to escape.

And here is the third floor, even if the physical fitness is far beyond ordinary people, jumping from the third floor will still hurt you, and you won't be able to run very far.

"You must not escape, otherwise you will not call yourself."

Various thoughts flashed through Ren's mind, guessing that these two people should be sent by the government. They found out that the owner of the manor outside the city last night was Eisberg.

The reason why I came to find myself is that I have been to the swordsmanship gym and knew that I used to be Asperger's assistant, so I came to investigate and inquire.

"They acted so fast, they tracked down to me within a few hours. They should have discovered the altar of the evil god, so they attach so much importance."

Ren secretly rejoiced that he didn't bring the money and shotgun back to the apartment, otherwise he would be in trouble.

While thinking, his mind settled down.

Soon, there was a knock on the door.

Ren opened the door calmly, and saw a man and a woman standing outside the door.

A man in his thirties, wearing a black leather jacket and trousers, with a gun bag on his waist, and a wide-brimmed felt hat that looks like a cowboy hat. He looks ordinary, with a slightly hooked nose and forehead There are a few shallow wrinkles, and under the rough eyebrows are a pair of dark and deep eyes.

Behind him was a female swordsman in full armor.

She is very tall, with a handsome face, long golden hair tied behind her head, wearing exquisite silver armor, carrying a two-handed sword on her back, and a golden scale engraved on her breastplate, which is the holy symbol of the God of Justice.

"A fourth-level ranger, but wearing a soul gun like a gunslinger, and a third-level female holy swordsman!"

Renn had already opened the eyes of the soul, and saw the extraordinary professions of these two people, but his face was full of astonishment, and he asked, "My lords, you..."

The leading man took out a card from the pocket of his leather jacket and said, "I am Pollock from the Demon Squad of the Public Security Bureau, and she is my teammate Frieda. This is my ID."

Pollock didn't mean to show the card to Ryan for inspection, but just showed it to Ryan for a second or two and then took it back.

If it were an ordinary person, they would not be able to see clearly what was on the card, but ordinary people would not dare to ask after hearing the identity of the visitor.

Longshande's Public Security Bureau is similar to the previous life's Public Security Bureau, and the law enforcement officers that people usually see are called security officers. There is one of the most special departments in the Public Security Bureau, the Demon Squad, which is responsible for cases related to demons or cults.

The members of the Demon Slayer are all extraordinary, and the number of members is maintained between five and ten. They are matched with various professions, and they act in groups when they go out.

The scene of Pollock showing his ID card made Ryan feel inexplicably familiar.

Isn't this a scene often seen in movies before?

Pollock wouldn't be surprised if he yelled at the FBI right now...

He complained in his heart, but on the surface he pretended to be a little panicked. He quickly opened the door and said, "Please come in, my lord. I don't know what's the matter?"

Pollock walked into the room, but the holy swordsman Frieda stayed outside the door. She took a deep look at Ren, and then looked away.

Pollock took a look around the room. The layout of the room was very simple and clear at a glance. He couldn't see anything at all, so he asked, "Do you know Asperger Fern?"

"Yes." Ren said truthfully: "I used to be his assistant, but only for half a month."

"Why only half a month?" Pollock asked in a deep voice.

"Uh..." Ren's heart was full of alarm bells, and this was the only place where he could be exposed. Because he didn't know how Asperger confessed to the swordsmanship gym after killing himself.

Although the biggest possibility is that Asperger said nothing, pretending not to know where he was going. But there is another possibility. Esperger reported to the swordsmanship hall that he thought he was not suitable for the job of assistant and had already fired.

Seeing Ryan's faltering, Pollock frowned, and said majesticly: "This matter is very important, you'd better tell the truth, otherwise I will have to take you back for interrogation."

"No, no, no..." Ren waved his hands quickly, and said in fear, "My lord, let me tell you."

"On the night of half a month ago, Master Asperger and Ramsay found me and asked me to bring a weapon and go with them to do a big event, the kind that can make a fortune, but may kill people. I was very scared at the time. I ran away while they weren’t paying attention, and hid in the countryside overnight for a long time, and didn’t dare to come back until this morning.”

Ren answered half-truth and half-false, avoiding the previous question, so as not to be inconsistent with what the swordsmanship gym said.

Pollock didn't respond when he heard this, and stared at Ryan, causing Ryan to bow his head in fright, his body trembling slightly, and then asked: "You are considered alert if you managed to run away. But why didn't you report it? "

Ren timidly replied: "I dare not, and there is no evidence."

He looked up, "My lord, has Asperger been arrested?"

"He's dead." Pollock replied blankly, "And your classmate Ramsay is also dead. They are all followers of a cult. You are lucky that you were not involved."

"Ah..." Ren looked shocked, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing him like this, Pollock was not interested in asking any more questions, turned around and left the room, and waved to the female holy swordsman: "Let's go."

Ren watched the two leave, and waited until their figures disappeared at the stairs before closing the door.

He wiped his forehead and found that his palms were wet. He couldn't help admiring his acting skills, shook his head and thought to himself: For my own sake, I was forced to do this!

Downstairs, Pollock and Frieda had already walked out of the apartment, and the two began to talk.

"Frieda, have you found anything?" Pollock asked in a low voice.

"No, captain. My mind detection is normal. He is just an ordinary person and has nothing to do with evil gods." Frieda replied.

"Then leave him alone."

Pollock snorted and continued: "This kid didn't tell the whole truth. He is not an extraordinary person, but he escaped from the hands of a second-level shadow warrior. There must be something hidden in it. But since he has nothing to do with the evil god, forget it, and track it down." It doesn't make much sense to go down, lest you frighten the young people."

The footsteps of the two gradually receded until they disappeared completely.

Ren's expression was complicated, and he was also afraid for a while, secretly remembering the names of these two extraordinary people.
