Ember Gun

  Chapter 423 Error

   "So you counted these from the beginning?"

   "It's not a calculation, it's just a hunch."

  There was a voice, it sounded like two men, they seemed to be talking about something.

   "What is a hunch?" the man asked.

  "I have a hunch that Irene Adler will not be such a simple person. She must be doing something else, but we don't know yet." Another man replied.

   "So this is a set you set up? You bastard, you use me!" The man's voice rose.

"It's not a use, just be prepared. I guess if Irene wants to do anything, the time alone with you is her only chance. We are not present. Only you, the defeated man, will be there." Another The man continued.

   "What is a defeated man!"

  "Have you been fooled by her once? If it is still you, it will make her relax her guard."

   "Let your guard down? She almost killed me!"

   "But I changed the bullets, specially for you, otherwise when she hit you, she may use live ammunition, and now you are a corpse."

   "Total I have to thank you, am I?" Anger was hidden in the man's words.

   "If you want, you can thank me." The other man still said shamelessly.

   "Lorenzo!"

  Kestrel's voice rose up. He was just about to greet Lorenzo, but Lorenzo interrupted him.

   "She seems to be awake."

  After speaking, a big fuzzy face appeared in the field of vision. He couldn't see his appearance clearly, but then there was a slight pain in the neck.

  "Florend's potion, it should help you wake up...Wow, Kestrel, you are so cruel, can't you be gentle with the lady?"

   "She almost killed me! Lorenzo! Almost, almost so!"

  Along with the scolding battle between the two, Irene gradually woke up.

She didn't know exactly what the so-called Florund's potion was, but the effect after the injection was obvious. She felt that her head was taken out of her head, then soaked in cold water, and then rough again after cooling. The ground was stuffed back.

Irene blinked vigorously, and finally saw her surroundings. She was lying on the bed, trying to move, but her limbs were obviously bound by something, and beside her, Lorenzo and Kestrel left. One right sits on either side of himself.

  Kestrel's arm was completely **** with a bandage, and there was an additional protective gear on it, which was hung around her neck, and there were many more wounds on her face. Irene remembered that it was she just beat it out.

   Lorenzo on the other side was the same as usual. He was looking at himself with a serious face, but in the depths of those gray-blue eyes, he was a little joking.

  He won, but Irene couldn't hold it back after all, showing her feet in front of Lorenzo.

   "Although you say you are here to help us, how can I believe a person like you?"

   Lorenzo saw Irene wake up, and then slowly told.

   "Are you doing these on purpose?"

Irene’s voice was a little weak. She felt her head hurts, but it’s true that when the Kestrel smashed, the doctor cut off Irene’s long hair in order to bandage the wound. Wrap it round and round.

   "Yes, the solitude between you and the Kestrel, as well as the weapons in the piano box, are all prepared for you. If you really have any ideas, you will definitely not miss this opportunity."

  Lorenzo continued.

  "You are already an enemy of the Iron Law Bureau. After this action, you are bound to become an enemy of me. This is not good, and you are not sure that you can escape, right?"

  Lorenzo continued to analyze Irene’s thoughts, the more interesting he became.

  "So what is the reason? What kind of thought would it be that would make you take such a big risk to act?"

  Faced with Lorenzo’s questioning, Irene was like a okay person, just like Lorenzo, she was very good at concealing her inner thoughts.

  The two looked at each other for a while, and Lorenzo said helplessly.

   "Kestrel, you go to rest first."

   "Take a rest? I can do it!"

  Kestrel was taken aback, and then replied, although only one hand is left to move, but he can continue to make gestures with Irene. Inexplicably, Kestrel especially wants to compete with Irene today.

   Seeing this, Irene smiled helplessly. She felt that she was so stupid that she would be overturned by this kind of guy. Lorenzo got up and said seriously.

   "Then put another way, go out, understand?"

   "Ah... alright."

I couldn't beat Lorenzo with both hands, let alone one. The Kestrel looked at the two of them, then walked out, looking from the door, Eve and Hybold were clearing the living room. Under the battle between Kestrel and Irene, the two of them almost turned the entire living room over.

  Lorenzo followed, and glanced at the living room.

  "Herkery hasn't come back yet?"

   "No, but Poirot was sent back."

  Eve pointed at the big mouse running around. After they came back, the staff sent the big mouse back. As for where Hercules went, no one knew.

   "Is this..."

  Lorenzo didn't worry about Hercules. This guy had no strengths except that weird brain, so this guy had a clear understanding of himself, and it was too simple for him to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.

  Close the door, and only Lorenzo and Irene are left in the room. He sat back in his seat, looked at Irene and then whispered.

   "Are you afraid of Hyboard?"

   There was a momentary pause in Irene's expression. Although it was short, it was very obvious in Lorenzo's eyes.

  She looked at Lorenzo, not knowing what to say for a while, and finally asked helplessly.

  "When did you find out."

  "From the first time you met Hybade, your reaction was very interesting, like a mouse meeting a cat...you are terrified."

Irene did not continue to explain anything, her expression fell loose, and the disguise she had always been removed at this moment, she finally became a little more relaxed, although she did not want to be like this, she continued to pretend in Lorenzo’s eyes, too. It just embarrassed myself.

   "Your main purpose of driving away the Kestrel is also to isolate Haiboard, isn't it?"

  Eileen looked at the closed door, only then did she realize that every time she talked with Lorenzo, she avoided Hybade.

   "Yeah, I am more worried about that guy than you."

  Lorenzo stared at Irene closely, his gaze made Irene a little uneasy.

   "Hybod is Ivar's personal guard." Irene said.

  Lorenzo thought for a while.

   "Love triangle?"

  "?"

  Somewhat unable to bear Irene's contemptuous look, Lorenzo apologized again and again.

   "Sorry, I just want to enliven the atmosphere."

   "Is there anything necessary to be active in this atmosphere?"

  Eileen was about to laugh at Lorenzo.

   "I thought it was, at least it seemed to me." Lorenzo continued to explain.

"After all, you are the famous Irene Adler. Before coming here, Hybbod warned me countless times. In his eyes, you are like a cold viper, and you have seen it, the Kestrel. .

  You captured his mind so easily. To be honest, it’s hard not to be wary. "

  It seemed that she didn't expect to look like this in Lorenzo's eyes. Irene shook her head. She was beaten by the Kestrel, and her whole body hurt. The pain interfered with her thoughts.

   "Do you smoke?" Lorenzo asked, "You look a little bad."

   Irene nodded, then continued.

  "You also know my job. In order to get close to my goal, I am also very versatile. I can even repair a steam engine, although I am learning it temporarily."

   Irene said that she remembered the awful work.

"At that time, my goal was a captain. He was managing an arms smuggling line. I boarded the ship as a maintenance engineer. He thought he would have an unforgettable journey with me. As a result, he was thrown into the combustion chamber by me and burned. There is not even ashes left."

   "Oh, that sounds really bad."

  Lorenzo handed Irene the cigarette mixed with bellflower, and helped her light the fire.

   "Halalucsin?"

  Eileen realized the cigarette problem for the first time, and Lorenzo answered.

   "Almost, I usually use this when I am under a lot of pressure. It's quite relieve pain."

"really."

   Irene also felt it, the pain was diluted, and gradually she couldn't feel anything.

   Leaning against the bed, she seemed to realize that she couldn't change anything. Some flushed eyes finally broke the bank. She raised her head to prevent Lorenzo from seeing this embarrassing scene as much as possible.

   "Then if it's not a love triangle, what is it?"

  Lorenzo tacitly didn't go to see Irene, but casually picked up the books on the side and looked through it. After a few glances, it turned out to be the **** of "Victoria's Secrets."

  In fact, he is also very curious about the ending of this story.

   "Actually I have read this book."

   Irene squinted at the book, not knowing who she was talking to.

   "A lot of the time I can only hide in the room. It was boring during that time. I was reading these weird books. In fact, my ending was similar to this one."

"What's the meaning?"

   "I had a chance, a chance to escape."

  Eileen said, thinking about it, she was vomiting.

"Ival asked me if I am interested in leaving here. Although that guy always looks like someone owes him money and is gloomy, he still likes to hang out. In his words, he hates the cold north. I want to see the warm land."

  Maybe the bellflower was working, Irene didn't know whether it was a hallucination or something, she saw the long-lost face in the blurred vision.

"But he is the heir of the King of Ice Sea. Although he was born deformed, his status is still higher than that of many people, and the significance he carries is also extraordinary. He said that when he was a child, his father was not what he missed most. The King of Ice Sea did not regard him as a deformity, and would take him out to sea with him.

  Although the burden is heavy, Ivar can still scream at the violent storm, but with the blessing of the crown, all of this can't go back. "

  Lorenzo felt that he was about to touch the deep secret, he asked in a low voice.

   "And then? Then what happened? You designed to hijack Ivar?"

Irene was silent for a while, then nodded.

  "It was a long-planned escape. I made a route. We will travel around the countries. Everything is beautiful. Even his guard, Haibod, was moved by me."

"In fact, Hybbod is a nice guy. He once told me in private that he sympathizes with Ivar. Although he is a bit pitiful and disgusting, he feels that Vikings shouldn't have died in a wheelchair like this. Not to mention that the person was still bleeding the blood of the King of Ice Sea, he couldn't bear to watch Ivar continue to sink like this.

  So under my bewilderment, he let us go and let us go. "

Irene took a deep breath, and a cigarette burned out. Lorenzo was very cooperative and handed another one. The bellflower made Irene very relaxed. In such a tired situation, this was the time when she was most relaxed and vigilant. Lorenzo is most likely to learn about the secret opportunity.

"and then?"

  Lorenzo continued to ask.

"Then? Then, as you can guess, everyone was very happy at first. Just like the story in "The Secrets of Victoria", the boy and the girl escaped and headed for the unknown journey. Hybold wanted to cover us. He took all the guilt for his whereabouts, and... and then I let him down."

   Irene's eyes were a bit dull, and she looked straight at the nothingness ahead.

  "Happiness didn't last long. We were intercepted on the high seas by the preliminarily ambushed battleship of the Iron Law Bureau. Ivar was captured. He seemed to know that all this would happen at the time, without saying a word."

  Lorenzo looked at Irene, he suddenly realized that his guess might be true, he couldn't help feeling a panic, and...ridiculous.

   "This is really a low-level mistake. How could you make such a mistake? Irene." Lorenzo asked.

   Irene turned her head to look at Lorenzo. She knew she had been seen through by Lorenzo, and she asked with a smile.

   "How about you? Lorenzo Holmos, haven't you made any mistakes in your life?"

  Lorenzo was startled, and Irene continued.

   "Probably this is the inferiority of human beings. I think Mr. Holmes, you have killed a lot of people, there are countless ones."

  Lorenzo nodded stiffly, and Irene asked.

  "Then can you tell if you are simply killing, or if you are carrying out the so-called justice in your heart? Can you tell the difference?"

  Eileen smiled self-deprecatingly.

   "Like me, just like us, we all wear masks, but sometimes we remember the existence of masks, but more often the masks are glued to our faces and can't be removed anymore."

   "This is terrible, Irene."

  Lorenzo felt sorry for all this, he pityed Irene.

  "Are you in love with him?"

  Silence, I don’t know how long this silence lasted. Irene laughed. She couldn’t stop smiling, and finally even coughed, which affected the wound.

"how could be?"

  As if this was a funny joke, she almost burst into tears.
