Chapter 104 Solomon


Chapter 104 Solomon

Rebecca is a typical impatient, which Milo has known for a long time.

It was impossible for him to stop this woman, and he had no intention of stopping her.

On this trip to Barren Mountain, Rebecca had a reason why she had to go, and so did Milo. Although it was a stupid thing to split up and act separately, Milo had no way to explain anything. I can make this thing continue to be stupid.

Anyway, he knew the path of Rebecca's plan. If he calculated it based on time, it would not be difficult to calculate her specific location in the barren mountains. He could just act accordingly.

It's 08:23 AM.

The sunshine has completely covered every corner of the town of Ikem, making the town look a little less lifeless than at night.

Walker originally proposed to take Rebecca to the edge of the town in a carriage, but Rebecca refused. She probably didn't want to be too conspicuous, so she chose to set off on foot.

Milo was even less anxious. He had to wait for Rebecca to walk for a short period of time before starting. Otherwise, even a fool could spot him if he just followed behind in a daze.

So Milo calmly helped Walker study the deformed door frame.

"It's rare to see a boss like her in the law enforcement team, right?" Walker said to Milo while re-fixing the door frame with wooden strips.

"What kind?" Milo stood aside and handed Walker the nails.

"She is very protective of you, isn't she?" Walker muttered.

“Sister, I’m a rookie who just joined the job.” Milo was too lazy to explain.

After all, my current mental outlook can be summed up in one word - hollow. If everyone really thinks that he is hollow, it will be a good thing. It is better for Solomon to hide in the dark. Think so.

"The door panel doesn't think so." Walker said meaningfully.

Indeed, only the door panel knew how heavy Milo's kick last night was.

Of course, the door panel of Grandma Freya’s room is also aware of this.

But Milo did not take this sentence.

But Walker suddenly changed the topic:

"Actually, when I first met you, I thought you were a local from Galede City."

"It's not because of your black hair, is it?" Milo muttered.

"That's not true." Walker shook his head: "It's just a feeling, the result of comparing it with the people around you, because in your eyes, Galeed does not seem to be a strange place. "

Milo raised his eyebrows slightly.

Walker really got it right.

But he just shrugged and joked:

"What kind of man's sixth sense is this."

"It's all guesswork."

Walker Ping Ping Pong Banging the hammer.

With the cooperation of the two, a new door panel was quickly hung up and a new lock was installed.

"Don't you need to stay here for lunch? I noticed that you have been looking south." Walker asked Milo.

"You guessed it right again." Milo spread his hands.

"If there is anything I can do to help, just ask." Walker said seriously.

“It really does.”

Milo adjusted the hat on his head: “You may have to take these tools to repair the door of Grandma Freya’s room.”


"Huh?" Walker didn't understand what Milo meant at first.

"That's the literal meaning." Milo nodded and added: "Otherwise we might not have breakfast tomorrow."

"Okay, I'll take the time to go over and take a look. "Although Walker was a little confused, he still agreed.

......

About 20 minutes passed, and Milo felt that the time was almost up.

"I have to follow."

Milo greeted Walker and Kai, then put on his mask and went straight into the alleyway.

He did not take the main road of the town because his clothes were too conspicuous, and others would know that he was a law enforcement officer at a glance.

Rebecca’s route is to enter from the left gap in the southern mountainous area. There is the mine where the town of Ikem was originally excavated. However, the excavation work has now been completed. The mining company’s focus on the mine is After the shaft was simply backfilled, the focus of excavation was shifted to other areas.

Milo's plan was to go in the opposite direction, following Rebecca's route map and entering the barren mountain from the opposite right side.

If traces of the Crystal Orchid can be found, the biggest secret of Ikem Town will not be far away.

Although this probability is unlikely.

After all, the scope of Barren Mountain is more than ten times larger than the small town of Ikem.

It’s not like finding a needle in a haystack, but it can definitely be said to be a matter of luck.

……

With this secret thought in his mind, Milo walked in the deserted alley. Ikem is not as intrusive during the day as it is at night, but because all the mining workers have gone to the mine, any non-human movement around them seems even weirder.

But the air was very fresh during the day, and Milo walked for a while without hitting those annoying flies.

But just at the corner of the alley, Milo almost bumped into a gray-haired figure.

This person was very thin and short, and Milo recognized who she was just by passing by.

It was the old lady I met in the town last night.

Last night, Milo was frightened when he met her for the first time.

This time is no exception.

The old man seemed to appear out of thin air, without any warning, and just stood there blankly at the corner, as if she had been waiting for Milo there.

“Hey, it’s you again.”

Milo sighed.

But he soon noticed that the old man's clothes had not changed at all from last night. The skin on her wrinkled face looked like it was about to dry out and crack, which should have been caused by the long wind.

"You... haven't found your child yet?"

Did she run outside all night?

At this moment, Milo suddenly remembered that when she met the old man last night, she was anxiously looking for a certain girl.

It's been almost ten hours, how could it be possible that I haven't found it yet?

The people here are really strange. When a child gets lost, he doesn’t go to the law enforcement officer to report the matter and just wanders around... Wait a minute, I seem to be the law enforcement officer.

The old man stared at Milo for a long time before speaking:

“Please save our child.”

“When did he get lost? Where did she get lost? Tell me again her appearance and characteristics." Milo sighed.

You definitely have to help find them. After all, these mining workers were still being punished before for missing their coworkers and not reporting the crime. Now people are actively coming to ask for help. It would be too stupid to pretend that nothing happened.

The old man told Milo some key information again.

Milo nodded and pointed in the direction of the law enforcement office: "I will help you find it, but to be on the safe side, you still have to go to the office to notify me. It is best to contact the city through there. It will be easier to find the law enforcement officer here if you have more people."

"Okay, thank you!" The old man burst into tears.

"That's it for now, I have to go out now. If I find the child, I will bring her back."

Milo nodded.

He didn’t want to waste too much time, so he pointed out the direction to the law enforcement office for the old man and then continued towards the barren mountains of Shennan.

After entering the small town of Ikem, he encountered too many strange things, including this one.

Meanwhile, the top floor of the mining company south of the small town of Ikem.

The Solomon member who has never shown his face from beginning to end is sitting on the sofa. He does not wear formal clothes that can show his identity like the men of Nanwei people, and he does not carry decorations such as canes. The overall clothing style is more of the rough style of the border area. The sleeves of the gray-black shirt are rolled up to the elbows, revealing the ferocious tattoos on the forearms. The lower body is made of military tactical trousers and military boots with rough fabrics.

This attire alone is enough to tell what system this person comes from.

In a city like Galede, which is close to the southern border, the customs and culture here are very different from those in the mainland. People do not pursue the dressing style of elegant gentlemen, but comfort and practicality. What the locals pursue, and whether a person enjoys superior material conditions, can be judged by what he drinks.

For example, the white wine in the cup in the hand of the rough man on the sofa is a wine that is abundant in the northern part of the country. Regardless of its quality and vintage, it is transported across the entire country to Shenzhen. The toll from Galid in the southern region is beyond the reach of ordinary middle-class people.

The hair on the top of the man's head is somewhat scarce, and there is basically no hair left on the first half of his head, which is in a shiny state. However, the beard on the lower half of his face is unusually strong, and he looks very much like Nan Wei. Trees and vines crisscross the outskirts of the city.

“Say.”

The man stared quietly at the busy workers in the mine outside the floor-to-ceiling window. His voice was deep and powerful, like a low growl at the bottom of the throat of some kind of beast.

Behind his sofa, an attendant stood upright, reporting some information to the man in a sonorous tone:

“One of the law enforcement officers entered the barren mountain area and wore a The woman with the Marshal's badge."

The man didn't look back, he just raised his hand and touched his bare forehead and moved his lips:

"So brave? It seems like they must know something, but why is it that only the female law enforcement officer went in? "Where is the follower she brought?"

"It's not clear yet. His whereabouts are very strange and there is no pattern to follow," the attendant responded.

The man on the sofa turned back to look at the attendant this time, and commented calmly:

"What you told me last time was that this young man was the most recent person in Nanwei City. The first person in the law enforcement assessment, I told you to keep a close eye on him, right? Then the second time you told me that he didn't even dare to kill anyone on the train. It was the female law enforcement officer who brought warmth. Bed, and now you tell me that his whereabouts are strange and there is no pattern to follow?”

"Are you treating me like a fool?"

"If there is no other way, I can find someone else to do the work for me."

......

Attendant He was so scared that he didn't dare to say anything anymore.

The man thought for a long time, and finally gave the attendant an order:

"Since they want to know what is buried in the barren mountains so much, help them."

"Yes, Mr. Marshall."
