"Let's go and don't have any contact with the people here."
Mr. Stork said something in a deep voice while wearing a mask.
"Yeah." Gilan nodded.
The two of them continued forward and came to the unfinished building area at the end of the gravel path.
Mr. Stork is looking around, searching for the whereabouts of Ms. Forest Dove according to the general direction indicated in the request for help letter.
But at this moment.
Bang bang gunshots came from the penultimate unfinished building.
Mr. Stork is looking intently a hundred meters away.
But with Gilan's eyesight, he could clearly see the figure of a woman holding a bolt-action rifle, squatting on the edge of the third floor, and shooting into the open space below.
"Let's go over and have a look."
Mr. Stork held up his cane and made a gesture.
The two of them moved forward quickly and soon arrived at the unfinished building.
Mr. Stork looked up and saw the woman's figure, and said:
"It's Ms. Forest Dove, let's go help her!"
It was at this time that the two of them noticed a dozen men swarming out of the open space in front of the unfinished building, holding machetes or Borchardt Pistol, intending to rush into the unfinished building.
Gilan has a sharp eye and recognized most of them as members of Oak Gang.
He opened his mouth to remind, Mr. Stork nodded and said:
"Layton Lewis must be behind these people."
After that, he took out the Luger Pistol from his waist and shot at the crowd.
Several gunshots rang out, and several men who were charging fell down.
Gilan also took out the short-barreled revolver and shot along with Mr. Stork.
Both of them had good marksmanship, and they killed most of them in one shot.
The group of gangsters who were lucky enough to survive the sneak attack were so frightened that they quickly stopped charging and hid behind the surrounding concrete stone piers or slate building materials.
"That woman has foreign aid! Be careful!!" someone shouted.
Bang!
Gunshots were heard from the third floor.
After a scream broke through the air, the man who shouted was shot in the head by a bullet on the spot.
The body lay crooked on the ground, and the blood stained the sand on the ground red.
Mr. Stork raised his head and saw the woman nodding towards him.
The handsome old man wearing the Red-billed Stork mask couldn't help but chuckle.
Gilan loaded the bullets at this time, raised his hand and fired again, killing several guys who were hiding behind the bunker and looking around.
When he reached the hiding place of the last man, he saw a man with a frightened face, squatting on the ground with a machete in his hand, sweating profusely.
When he found Gilan approaching, his expression suddenly changed and he was about to beg for mercy.
Bang!
The revolver was fired at close range, and the bullet passed through the skull.
The man's body fell down.
Ding-ding-ding-ding-ding...
Gilan flicked the cartridge with an expressionless face, and the yellow cartridge case fell.
While reloading, he turned around and walked back.
Mr. Stork gave him a thumbs up and then gestured to enter the unfinished building.
The two immediately climbed up the stairs to the third floor.
As soon as I came up, I saw a mature-looking woman sitting against a concrete pillar, breathing heavily.
She looks to be in her thirties, with a high nose and lively eyes. Her long light brown hair is tied into a simple ponytail, making her look very capable. A few strands of curly hair fall on both sides of her forehead, adding a touch of femininity to her regular facial features.
The woman had the wooden bolt-action rifle in her hand, with a bayonet stuck under the barrel. There were also several five-round magazines next to it, and some bullet casings were scattered around.
She bent her legs in long black bell-bottom pants and was holding one side of her waist, showing pain on her face.
He was obviously injured.
"Stork, you are finally here."
Ms. Forest Dove forced out a smile and said.
Her voice is neutral, lacking softness, but has a convincing calmness.
"If it's any later, I'm afraid you'll have to collect the body for me."
"You are still so good at talking, Forest Dove." Mr. Stork shook his head.
"I can't stay here any longer. I didn't expect Layton Lewis's spy to find me so quickly... Those fools who were desperate for their lives just came here to test me. Soon, those difficult dead men from before will come after me again."
Ms. Forest Dove struggled to stand up, bent down to hold on to the cement pillar, gritted his teeth and frowned.
"Let me check the wound for you. You can't walk like this."
Mr. Stork stepped forward and said in a deep voice.
Unexpectedly, Ms. Forest Dove raised his hand to refuse, picked up the rifle, carried it behind his back, picked up the magazine on the ground, and put it into a handbag.
"It's okay, it's just a trauma. The bullet bit a piece of flesh. I bandaged it urgently."
She turned to look at the two men.
"Before the pursuers arrive, come with me quickly. Get the mysterious inheritance of ancestor Louis Family first. That is the most important thing."
"Okay." Mr. Stork didn't force it and nodded in agreement.
The three of them simply tidied up and quickly went downstairs to leave.
On the way, Ms. Forest Dove had already put on a standard gas mask, turned his head and glanced at the young man beside his old friend, and asked curiously:
"Who is this?"
"Oh, I haven't had time to introduce it to you yet. This is Mr. Snowy Owl from our 'Record Society'. He is very skilled. To be on the safe side, I called him to join us."
Mr. Stork Road.
Ms. Forest Dove nodded to Gilan and said:
"Hello, Mr. Snowy Owl, thank you for your willingness to help."
"You're welcome." Gilan responded politely.
As the three of them were on their way, Ms. Forest Dove told them about the clues they had obtained:
"Last month, I was in Longken City at Alashan Region. The Assembly members over there collected a True Film Reel called <Hammer of Justice>, which tells the story of a parade merchant at the end of the 18th century who embarked on a mysterious road."
Alashan Region is located in the west of Great Forest Region and belongs to Kawa Province.
If you take the train, it takes two or three days from Longken City to Black City.
"The businessman's name was 'Sabbatai Louis'. He lived for more than a hundred years and did not die until 1912... And in his later years, he Seclusion stayed in an apartment, studying alchemy knowledge without sleep or food."
Ms. Forest Dove continued talking, and took out a stack of typewritten documents from his satchel and handed them to Mr. Stork.
The latter took it and looked at it, saw several photos pinned to the corner of the paper with paper clips, and found some familiar buildings among them, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
"That tall building on the mountainside in the distance, is it Fengdeng Castle?" he asked, pointing to the photo.
Ms. Forest Dove nodded and said solemnly:
"Well, I have investigated and confirmed that the 'Black Town' that Sabbatai used in his later years as Seclusion in the movie is actually the current Black City!"
"Furthermore, through the characteristics around the apartment, I roughly identified a location."
"Where?" Mr. Stork became interested and asked.
"Slum area, Haddonfield Street, 'Black Bottle Cap Brothers' scrap station."
Ms. Forest Dove said lightly.
Hearing this, Gilan's expression under the mask was surprised.
Isn't that where Oak Gang lives?!
That's where I escaped from...
But if there really is a so-called inheritance, it should have been found by gang boss Lucas long ago.
"Before I came to Black City, I went through various investigations and found out that Sabbatai's single-family apartment was destroyed by a fire ten years ago. After that, it was demolished and rebuilt into a new office building and warehouse area, and was slowly expanded into a waste recycling station..."
While they were talking, the three of them had already arrived near Haddonfield Street.
Team after team of armed police officers wearing gas masks were patrolling. Many anti-epidemic personnel wearing large protective suits broke into houses and shops along the street, and forcibly dragged the residents out and took them away.
Screams and cries can be heard from time to time.
The three of them ducked and hid at the corner of the street.
Ms. Forest Dove turned to the two men and said:
"But what no one knows is that in the movie, Sabbatai dug deep into the basement of the apartment again and secretly dug out a more hidden private laboratory!"
"If nothing else, no one has found the legacy he left there yet!"
