Chapter 1604: The Secret Door

~7 min read 1,303 words

"Are you all mistaken?" Wanshang and Fang Dalong said with extremely ugly expressions.

The police officer shoved past Wanshang and Fang Dalong, who were blocking the doorway, and vigilantly surveyed the gloomy and dim Small Tavern.

He looked at the dried, dark red bloodstains on the floor, frowned, and immediately drew his gun, aiming it at Wanshang and Fang Dalong; the two people before him might be the murderers.

"What is this? Why are there bloodstains on your floor!" the police officer asked in a deep voice.

Seeing this, the other police officers drew their guns one after another, pointing them at the two men.

Wanshang and Fang Dalong faced the gun barrels surrounding them and said in a deep voice: "Whatever you see, that is what it is."

This statement was equivalent to a tacit admission.

"Take them away!"

The police officer shouted in a deep voice.

He had not expected the case to be solved so smoothly.

Wanshang and Fang Dalong looked at the police officer: "You had better think clearly about what the consequences of doing this will be."

The police officer gave a cold laugh: "You will die."

The other police officers immediately apprehended Wanshang and Fang Dalong, and just as they were about to take them away, they heard a furious roar from the Police Chief.

"What are you doing!"

The police officer followed the sound, saw it was the Police Chief, and said, hoping for credit: "Police Chief, we have caught the criminals."

The Police Chief glanced at him, then looked at Wanshang and Fang Dalong, who were staring at him with unkind gazes.

His expression stiffened; others might not know who these two people were, but he knew very well.

The two of them were currently the most capable people by Richard's side.

"Hurry up and release them for me!" the Police Chief ordered in a low voice.

The police officer was stunned; release them?

Why release them?

"Sir, there are still bloodstains here; they have the greatest suspicion, these two are important suspects."

The Police Chief raised an eyebrow; his face was calm, but inside he was burning with rage, and he slapped the police officer across the face: "Are you the Police Chief, or am I the Police Chief?"

"I told you to release them, do you understand!"

Seeing the Police Chief's furious gaze, the police officer dared not disobey his order and immediately released Wanshang and Fang Dalong.

The Police Chief also saw the bloodstains on the floor.

Wanshang rubbed his wrist, which had been pinched sore, and said nonchalantly: "Police Chief, this is Ausilige's Small Tavern; you understand what's going on now, right?"

The Police Chief's heart skipped a beat.

The smile on his face instantly stiffened.

Ausilige was Richard's son, but he was unfilial, knew only how to indulge in debauchery and squander money, and was cruel by nature.

Bloodstains appearing in his Small Tavern was the most normal thing in the world.

The Police Chief knew more information than others; it was said that Ausilige had opened an Underground Arena specifically for life-and-death combat.

But he did not know where it was.

Could it be right here?

Thinking of this, and looking at the bloodstains on the floor again, the Police Chief understood instantly.

The Police Chief squeezed a smile onto his stiff face: "Alright, I understand."

Wanshang gave an "oh."

The Police Chief immediately took his men and scrambled away.

Furthermore, he strictly ordered his subordinates not to investigate this Small Tavern again.

In any case, it was absolutely impossible for Deng En to be hiding in this Small Tavern; it was Ausilige's property, and there were those two Longyan.

Even if Deng En had really hidden in this Small Tavern, the Police Chief would not dare to do anything about it.

After all, offending Ausilige, a guy whose self-confidence was currently inflating, might lead to crazy retaliation against himself.

Watching the Police Chief leave, Wanshang and Fang Dalong breathed a sigh of relief.

They did not clean up the bloodstains on the floor either.

Although they were the actual controllers of the Small Tavern, on the surface,

it still belonged to Ausilige.

In order to maintain Ausilige's cover, the Small Tavern would periodically put some red substance on the floor.

To avoid raising suspicion.

But they hadn't expected that today, this foolish police officer wouldn't even know this was Ausilige's property.

However, judging from the police officer's reaction, it seemed that the person who had fainted was related to a major case.

Now, the whole matter had become even more convoluted.

But they had no Method now; they could only wait for him to wake up.

At this time, Europe, Prague.

Better treatment conditions, more medicinal herbs.

A place with such conditions existed only within the Holy See.

But now the Holy See had been overrun by refugees, and the Holy Cross Army left behind by Douglas had all died miserably at the hands of the furious refugees.

The Cardinal's head was currently still hanging on the Holy See's holy cross.

Because of hunger, panic, and the loss of humanity, the refugees, after destroying the church, did not stop their madness in the slightest; they were falling into the abyss.

Falling into an even more cruel abyss.

Teresa arrived at the church, looking at the refugees who had already filled the entire holy church, and a look of greed appeared in the eyes of the woman who was dressed in coarse linen clothes but was as fair as rice.

After capturing the church, no food was found there.

One could even say there was nothing at all.

Teresa looked at them; they were all subjects of Austria, and her heart ached; she walked into the church amidst the greedy gazes.

Liu Zheng followed, but he only brought a dozen or so men with him.

Liangduo held a dying little girl and followed closely behind Teresa, walking into the Holy See.

Those frantic refugees revealed their fangs after seeing Teresa walk into the darkness.

Countless refugees, like wolves seeing delicious meat, scrambled to rush forward, intending to tear Teresa, Liu Zheng, and the others to pieces.

Looking at the rushing refugees, Liu Zheng sighed and ordered them to fire.

The Musket Bullets pierced through the bodies of these refugees, and they fell into pools of blood.

Two lines of tears left tracks on Teresa's face.

She had come to save these refugees, yet now she had no choice but to kill them.

Had she done something wrong, or had the world done something wrong?

Just as Liu Zheng said: "This is all because of the damned war; it ravages people until they are no longer human."

Teresa endured the immense sorrow in her heart and arrived at the depths of the church.

Liangduo knew there was a secret door in the depths of the Holy See; this was what Weikeduo had told him.

Liangduo opened the secret door; all the supplies were inside, but very few people knew about this place.

At this moment, those refugees also rushed over.

Liu Zheng covered them as they hid inside.

In the extremely narrow space, which was packed with a large number of refugees, they saw the food inside the secret door.

These refugees were simply like madmen, fearing no death, charging and killing frantically.

The Dragon Flame Army led by Liu Zheng fought while retreating, falling back into the secret door.

After Liangduo saw that everyone had entered.

He closed the mechanism.

The secret door fell down, closing tightly and seamlessly once again.

The heavy stone door blocked the frantic refugees.

But looking at the airtight environment, Liu Zheng frowned.

Now they could be said to be walking into a dead end of their own making.

There was nowhere to escape.
