Chapter 207 Arrest


Chapter 207 Arrest

Faya lives in the Zhongcheng District on the surface of No. 14 Mining Area. It is a bleak and poor place, with dirty pollution covering every surface. Most of the time, there is acid rain. Stop, various pipes are making noise all the time.

The dim light crept along the streets and every stone of the building seemed to be rotting.

“Up!”

Late at night, the voice coming from the street corner quickly received a response. The law enforcers’ figures in black carapace walked out of the dark narrow alley. The shotgun in Ping's hand was aimed at the heavy iron lock of the rusty door and fired.

Bang~!

The deafening sound of gunfire echoed through the alley, punching a fist-sized hole in the metal.

The arbiter who stepped forward kicked the door open and rushed in, followed closely by the others.

Behind the door is a corridor littered with waste. A few dirty oil lamps provide vague illumination. A sitting man has his feet up on a simple wooden table, his eyes wide open. A pipe stuffed with hallucinogenic tobacco hung limply from his lips.

The arbitrator already knew through previous investigations that this was Falla's servant and the person who looked after the other party's home and courtyard - although it was basically useless.

Then a second shotgun blast knocked the man backwards, blood splattering, and he fell against the wall.

All the law enforcers walked towards the corridor half-bent, walking quickly through the piles of twisted metal and broken stones.

“Smells like a hellish septic tank.”

One of the enforcers muttered under his breath, and everyone agreed except the arbiter who said nothing.

When he approached a closed door, he pointed suddenly, and the two law enforcers behind him quickly positioned themselves on the left and right sides of the door.

The next second, one of them kicked the door open, and the two rushed in at the same time, shotguns raised in their hands.

The beam of light in the alley cut through the darkness that could not illuminate the eyes. Some rodents hurriedly escaped from the light, and the stench index was already off the charts.

The Arbitrator glanced around and found another empty alley, with another door in front, and an oil lamp above his head weakly emitting a cold light.

"Why would a Mechanicus priest want to live in a place like this?"

An enforcer commented, adding colorful curses.

"Obviously it is more convenient to contact his accomplices here."

The Arbitrator replied sharply, and then interrupted the conversation.

"I've heard enough of your complaints."

The arrest team from the Ministry of Justice continued to move towards the door, and then heard some vague sounds, shouts, and Swearing.

Taking a deep breath, the arbiter picked up his heavy boots and kicked hard. The chain of the door had been rusted for many years. With this step, the entire door suddenly fell inward.

"Who!?"

This is a slightly empty square space with very few furniture. The only remaining sofas and chairs have been set on fire. A low table is filled with papers and documents, and beds are displayed on the wall. and desks, and a makeshift kitchen was built in the east corner.

A man in the far corner of the room seemed not to notice the sudden intruder and continued to pour the liquid in the tin can onto the table.

Two other men were lifting the window from the wall, one of them had fear in his eyes and quickly jumped into the shadows outside the window.

One person raised his pistol, his whole face distorted with hostility.

"Die!"

Gun flames spurted out from the end of the short-barreled weapon. The bullet did not hit any target. The arbiter calmly raised the gun in his hand, and then opened fire, exploding the opponent's head into a puddle. Blood clots. .

"Catch him, don't use a gun."

He mouthed instructions to the others, so the two law enforcers quickly approached the man.

By the time the other party noticed something strange behind him, it was already too late.

In the next second, thick arms wrapped around his neck and held him firmly in place. Then the man was dragged across the room and fell face-first to the ground, his hands pinned painfully behind his back.

The man tried in vain to resist, but the law enforcement officer pressed his knee on the back of the man's neck very professionally, forcing him to stick to the ground.

"I...I can't breathe!"

Although the man howled like this, it didn't help. The law enforcer still pressed him to the ground.

On the other side, the arbitrator ran across the room and picked up a wet page of paper from the grease-soaked table. When he saw what was written on it, the arbitrator couldn't help but curse - that was A detailed road map of Mining Area No. 14, with many hidden mine passages marked on it, and circles or crosses drawn in many areas. I don’t know what they specifically represent. "Quickly put out these damn fires! Otherwise this place may burn down at any time!"

After greeting and extinguishing the fire, the arbitrator walked to the prisoner who was suppressed on the ground and turned his face towards him with force. The man's face was deformed in pain.

"What are you planning here?"

He said softly, but the prisoner spat, eyes burning with anger.

"What kind of sign is this? I've never seen it before."

The law enforcer who was holding the opponent down suddenly spoke. He stared at the prisoner's head-shaking movements. The dark brown overalls on the opponent's body were somewhat damaged on the left shoulder, revealing a rough tattoo.

"This is..."

The arbitrator tore open the man's heavy clothes and stared at the tattoo - it was a screaming crow with its wings spread out, its claws nailed together On the skull.

“…Lord of Crows?”

“You fools don’t know the name of my lord!”

"Still talking back? Where is Faya? Where did he escape?"

"I don't... know!"

Seeing how stubborn this guy was, the law enforcer who suppressed him secretly used With such force, the man let out a painful groan.

"Don't worry, we have many ways to make you talk and take it back!"

"Yes!"

After announcing the withdrawal of the team, the arbiter stepped out of the door.

Suddenly, the fighting instinct developed over the years made him realize that something was watching him, so he immediately drew his pistol.

There was silence outside the house, with only the faint sound of rain and the sound of leaking pipes.

Then the Arbitrator raised his gun and looked up at the roof. He noticed that the eyes were coming from above.

It was probably just a conjecture, but the moment he looked up, he vaguely saw a shadow passing through the exposed rafters.

The Arbitrator moved forward and pointed his gun at the shadow.

After noticing the hanging ladder on the side, the sturdy arbiter climbed to the roof in only three seconds, and immediately raised his gun and took aim.

Bang!

A gunshot broke the silence of the night. The bullet hit the tiles next to the arbitrator, causing him to almost fall to the ground.

He then fired back three times at the front, but at a bad angle.

The next second, two bullets were fired from the back of the chimney, and then the metal tile was hit and the flash reappeared and fell to the floor.

The moment the gunfire rang out, the sound of running footsteps came from the floor below. The law enforcers also rushed out with their guns raised, but the arbiter had already started chasing the man, but again The rounds of bullets forced him to lie down again to dodge.

He raised his gun and fired at the roof tiles, making several holes in the direction where the bullets had just come.

Something hung on the roof, and there seemed to be chaos.

There are already law enforcers rushing up the stairs.

"This is the Ministry of Justice! Stop firing immediately! Raise your hands!"

The Arbitrator poured his will into it and let out a loud roar.

Suddenly, there was a louder crash, as if a large part of the entire roof had collapsed, and something seemed to have fallen into a nearby room.

The Arbitrator rushed forward, took aim with his gun, and was about to shout out the next order.

But there was no one there, just broken roofs and metal fragments scattered on the floor beneath a large hole, and a broken homemade submachine gun tossed among the rubble.

The Arbitrator jumped down and saw only some scattered blood on the ground, and it was not the normal scarlet color, but deep purple...
