Ember Gun

   Chapter 421

  Except for a slight breathing, there is no sound in the room, which is quiet and scary.

  Although they are both reading books, it is clear that one of them is not on the book at all. He is leaning on the sofa, holding the book in both hands, his eyes squint and drifting away.

   Irene Adler.

  Kestrel peered at the woman. She was lying halfway in the corner. Because her hands were cuffed together, she lay the book flat on her lap. She seemed to be reading a book, turning pages awkwardly from time to time.

  No, this is all an illusion, this woman will not be so easy to be honest.

After living such a big life, the Kestrel was often deceived, just as the Shrike told him at first it was just a more dangerous job, and it was not much different from the killing in Xiacheng. The young Kestrel was so convinced, and then In the ghost place of Cleansing Organs, I get along with those cute demons and serve until now.

  Of course not only these, even Lorenzo has tricked him several times, the more times he has been cheated, the Kestrel does not matter...but this time is different, Irene cheated herself this time is different from before.

  This time Irene deceived her feelings.

Although this is a bit naive and stupid, it seems to the Kestrel to be like this. He still remembers how excited he was holding that fish, and also remembered his anger and anger when Irene was brought back by Lorenzo. Embarrassed, but fortunately, Lorenzo didn't continue to play with him or sarcastically this time, otherwise the Kestrel would be really ashamed.

  Eileen didn't know these thoughts of Kestrel, she looked at the story in the book as if nothing happened.

   "Have you finished reading this book?"

   Irene asked abruptly.

  Kestrel shook his body immediately, put down the book, and looked at Irene with a bewildered look.

  "Didn't you finish it? I thought you finished it." Irene looked at the Kestrel opposite to her, looking around, "Did you just keep doing this? I thought you were looking for mosquitoes."

  It's over, it's all over.

  Kestrel thought he had a good disguise, but he hadn't escaped Irene's vigilance from the beginning, this woman had already noticed her gaze.

"finish watching."

  Kestrel replied dryly, he couldn't lose yet... at least he couldn't lose so simply.

   "Well, what do you think of this story?"

  Eileen pointed to the book. She and Kestrel read the same book, titled "Saker Falcon under the Night".

  Kestrel likes this book very much. The book tells about a protagonist who is probably a dark hero. He wears a mask and goes out at night to punish evil and promote good in the city.

   "I remember we discussed these."

  Kestrel still remembers that almost perfect afternoon, he completely forgot about fishing, and Irene...no, she should be called Gloria at that time, and we talked about this story with her.

  To be honest, Kestrel can't remember exactly what he talked about. He was completely immersed in the beauty at the time, and he didn't pay attention to what he said.

  It is a pity that this beauty did not last long, all of this is a scam.

   "Yes, we talked about this at the time. It looks like you did your homework overnight in order to get close to me."

  Kestrel is getting more and more angry, maybe when Irene prepares these at night, she will laugh at herself while watching. Such a big person is still watching these boring things.

   "Close to you? What are you thinking about?"

   Irene asked in confusion, a kestrel pretending to be affectionate.

   "Oh, this story is pretty good, I like it very much, but the ending is not very good," Irene continued, "Did you see the ending?"

  King Falcon was stunned, looking at Irene's attitude that had nothing to do with him, he felt that he was angry and difficult to vent, just like no matter how you scold the other person, the other person does not understand why you are so angry.

  Think about it, Irene is a member of the Iron Law Bureau, a very good spy, so good that even the guy named Ival will fall into her trap.

  She was wearing one mask after another. Kestrel thought she had seen her through, but maybe it was just one of the masks.

  What she hates so much is probably just daily work for her.

   Suddenly, Kestrel was not so angry anymore, he realized the difference between himself and Irene, and did not want to continue to say anything.

   "I saw it," he replied somewhat perfunctorily, "It's okay, it's the end."

   "I don't like this ending. I hate endings where good people are not rewarded."

   Irene whispered.

  "Falcon died in the end.

In the final decisive battle, he killed the vicious criminal, and he also fell down covered in blood. The rain was so heavy that everything was washed away. The next morning, an extra one appeared in the city. The tragic corpse, many years later, everyone has forgotten that there was such a hero. "

  Eileen closed the book. She had read the ending a long time ago, and now it’s just to pass the time to read it a second time.

   "I like this story, I like this Falcon, but he should have a better ending, not like this."

  Her eyes are a little lost, Irene seems to have really read the story carefully, rather than doing homework to get close to the Kestrel.

  "He saved so many people, but in the end he fell into a rainy night like this. After many years, no one even remembered him."

   "It's not an end, it should be an open ending, right?"

  Although I hate Irene, when talking about the story, Kestrel could not help but get serious, he said.

"You see, the author didn't name him whether he died or not at the end, did he? He just said that there was an extra corpse that died tragically. It might be a criminal. Maybe he finished the vote and ended up taking care of it? Maybe it's over. In a few years, the author will publish new books again, and for some reason, Saker Falcon will return to his old business and go out of the world again?"

  Looking at Kestrel's serious face, Irene was startled, and then couldn't help laughing.

   "You are so optimistic."

   "This is not a question of optimism. You didn't say that he was dead, did you?" Kestrel drilled its horns in some strange places.

   Irene thought for a while, she remembered what Lorenzo had said to her before.

  Many people are too smart, smart enough to know the pain in this world, so they are willing to be deceived, but Kestrel is different, he was deceived entirely because he was too stupid.

  He is so stupid.

   "Reading comprehension! Reading comprehension! It's all so implied!"

   "So what? Don't talk about it. It's useless. If you didn't call it directly, you didn't die!"

  No one would have thought that Kestrel would quarrel with Irene because of this kind of thing. He was like a child.

   "Why do you think so?"

   Irene began to feel a little helpless.

  Kestal thought for a while, and then said.

  "Do you know the experience of Lorenzo Holmos?"

"What's up with him?"

   Mentioned Lorenzo, Irene’s expression changed slightly. She was very good at conquering other men. They were as transparent as clear water in Irene’s eyes, controlled by her at will.

But Lorenzo was different. In the face of those gray-blue eyes, Irene felt that she could not see through anything. Even if she noticed something, she would feel that Lorenzo deliberately showed it to herself. He set it up. Under the trap.

  The time to get along is not long, but from everything Lorenzo has shown, sometimes Irene even thinks that Lorenzo is not a human, he is just a monster with a human shape.

  Under the skin, there is the same dark and sticky unknown thing.

   "I didn't believe in resurrection before, but after meeting Lorenzo, everything changed."

  Kestrel thought for a while, although sometimes he hates this guy who is a bit of a jerk, but he also has to admit that he is strong.

  "He is a guy who can break common sense. It can be exaggerated to say that he is the embodiment of miracles."

   "The incarnation of a miracle?"

"Yes, I have seen hundreds of monsters, they rushed to Lorenzo like a tide, but he cut it out of them with just one person, and I have seen him more than once. Falling into death, even his body was broken and mutilated, but in the end he survived."

  Kestrel whispered involuntarily.

   "Like a monster."

  The atmosphere was suppressed for some reason, but this lasted for less than a few seconds, and the Kestrel's voice became happy again.

   "So Lorenzo is really reliable. Although this job sounds horrible, Lorenzo is here, so you are fearless!"

  Kestrel said unabashedly that, to a large extent, Lorenzo was one of the main reasons why he didn't jump off the car and run. When that happens, he only needs to be a pendant, and the rest is left to him.

   "Is that so?"

Irene never thought that their evaluation of Lorenzo was so high, but think about it, in the beginning Irene approached Lorenzo because of the choir’s internal documents. They regarded Lorenzo as a threat. imaginary enemy.

  Looking at the Kestrel again, this guy can't tell whether it's stupid or big-hearted. He completely forgot the anger before, just like a goldfish, his memory is short and outrageous.

   "Are there any other books? Moon." Irene asked, "I've already finished reading this one."

   ""The Secrets of Victoria"?"

  Kestrel is probably used to being called "moon". He picked up the book on the side, which was reserved for Haibod.

"have not seen."

   Irene said that in fact, she was exposed to the knight novels and learned during the period when she dived into Inervig. The only one she had read was The Falcon in the Night.

   "Speaking of which, this is also an open ending, and I don't know what happened afterwards."

   Picking up the book, the Kestrel remembered the heroine in the story who had obvious brain problems, and he didn't know what happened to their great escape in the end.

  Looking at the cover of the book, there is no pen name left. These authors are more mysterious than the other. Sometimes the Kestrel wants to visit in person, but can't find the source.

"give."

  Kestrel walked over and handed the book to Irene.

   Irene took the book and asked about other things.

   "Kestrel, has anyone said that you are not suitable for this job?"

  "Not suitable?" The Kestrel became angry when he heard it, "What are you doing? Question my professionalism?"

  Kestrel must have a theory with her.

   "Let me tell you that when I was in the Xiacheng District, I was also a good hand at the time. When I cut it with a machete, even the Shrike had to run away!"

  Speaking of Kestrel, it seems that the Kestrel has never told others about the specific process of being recruited. In short, due to some reasons that Kestrel did not understand, Kestrel and Shrike’s hands were chopped together.

   At that time, relying on the bravery of his youth, he actually chased the Shrike and chopped it up. Although he was finally held down by the shrike's men, he probably appreciated the Kestrel’s unfavorable spirit, and the Shrike included him.

  Shrike also asked him why he was so desperate as a thug, and the Kestrel answered sincerely.

  Do one line and love one line.

   "No, I don't mean these, I mean your xinxing, you are too stupid, and too easy to be deceived."

  Which pot is open or not, Kestrel almost forgot about these things, and Irene raised it again.

She put the book down and put the Kestrel's face in her hands. This intimate behavior made Kestal a stunned. In the final analysis, he still missed that beautiful afternoon, even if he was aware of Irene's deceit, but instinctively wanted to Step into the trap.

  At first, Irene gave herself a wonderful impression, just like light, she is a perfect light, the light of many people.

   "Unlike many clever guys, you are a bit stupid and pure."

  Eileen looked at him like she was looking at a puppy.

"What did you say……"

  Kestrel couldn't finish her words, Irene's handcuffs fell under his watch, and she spread out the palm of her hand, with a slender wire placed in it. For her from the Iron Law Bureau, unlocking handcuffs is a basic skill.

   "Fuck you!"

   Kestrel scolded immediately, but Irene, who had been prepared a long time ago, was obviously faster than her. She grabbed the slender wire tightly with her backhand, and directly stabbed the Kestrel’s throat.

Presumably many people were killed by Irene in this way, thinking they had won, but in reality everything was under the control of this woman. Kestrel turned his head and escaped the blow. Although the wire was slender, Kestrel believed that if If he was really hit, he would be dead.

The violent movement affected the wound, and the pain made the Kestrel grinned. He was not a demon hunter, and under the body of a mortal, the previous injury had not healed. He could only raise one hand to fight back, but before he could punch, Irene Yi The elbow hit hardly hit the Kestrel's body.

  This woman also had wounds on her body. Every time she attacked, she needed to affect her whole body, and she was obviously more fierce than the Kestrel. The elbow hit directly on the wound on the Kestrel’s shoulder, mercilessly.

At this moment, Irene doesn’t have her previous soft appearance at all, but it is, only with such a madness, this woman can survive the wanted of the Viking nations, and can also be killed all the way from Gallunaro, free from the Iron Law Bureau’s pursuit. .

  From the beginning, this Irene Adler was not a simple woman, but that afternoon was so beautiful, so good that Kestrel could hardly be alert even if he knew it.

The wound cracked under the heavy blow, and the blood dripped directly on the floor. The pain was unbearable, but this did not hinder the Kestrel's action. He reached out his hand and grabbed the fruit knife on the table, full of momentum, quite like chasing people in Xiacheng back then. The feeling of cutting.

   "Irene!"

  Kestrel growled and raised the fruit knife.

   "I'm here, what's wrong?"

Irene was standing not far away. She opened Lorenzo's cello box, raised Winchester with one hand, the barrel of the gun was placed in the other hand, she was aiming sideways, and she also had wounds on her body. , The recoil needs to be slowed down as much as possible.

   "Sorry, moon, don't hide!"

  She said, pulling the trigger.
