Primordial Sequence

Chapter 349 Knowledge of the slums

Bilin City, a slum area, Kamuo looked at the short, chaotic, silent, dirty and poor slum area for a long time. Why couldn't he see anyone?

"Where are the citizens? Camus turned to look at Hannibal and spoke."

"Those who died of hunger, ran away, wandered, were too cold to come out, and the rest probably worked in factories." Hannibal's expression did not change much. For him, he was used to all this.

"Grab it..."

At this moment, Camus saw several half-year-old children walking out of the alley. They were about ten years old. They were thinly dressed and had sallow complexions. Due to the weather, Camus could clearly see their exposed ankles. He had obvious frostbite. He saw three older children viciously kicking the child in front of him, snatching the black bread from his hand, and then kicking him several times before turning around and leaving. They also saw it. Camus and Camus, who were standing on both sides of the road, just took a look and left.

Camus watched all this silently, only to see the man who had fallen on the ground get up. He was almost skin and bones, and there was still blood on his head and nose. He gasped and looked at Camus and the others, then turned around and walked in In the alley.

"Food is scarce in winter. Not only adults are hungry, but children are also hungry. Without parental supervision, some street children survive by robbing other children's food. This is the current situation in the slums. This is how I came here. Fortunately, they still have Reason did not come to snatch us away.”

Camus touched his chin when he heard this. He glanced at Hannibal and said nothing. Hannibal didn't care. He took Camus around and finally came to a fairly standard stone house. In front of the room, there was a small iron door at the door, which was locked with an iron lock. Camus looked around and found a pair of eyes looking through the crack in the door. Hannibal took out the key and opened the door. Camus I turned around and looked in, and found that the layout inside was simple. There were two rooms and a bedroom with nothing else except a bed and a stool. The other room had a fireplace and a table. The quilt was shiny with oil. I knew it hadn't been washed for a long time.

"Is this where you live?"

Hearing Camus complain, Hannibal spoke in a low voice, "It's like this all around, but I have a basement. I wanted to move, and I've been looking for you, so I didn't have time to clean it up." Camus' eyes were slightly cold when he heard this. Jing looked at Hannibal without saying a word.

"Linka is really that dead?"

Hannibal's movements froze when he heard this. He stood quietly and waited for a while before speaking.

"Didn't I tell you how she died?"

Kamiu glanced at him when he heard the words. He originally believed what Hannibal said, but what he saw and heard in the slums along the way made him doubt whether a person who grew up in sin could really have kindness and integrity. Features?

"follow me……"

Seeing that Camus didn't speak, Hannibal invited Camus into the house. Camus made some preparations and followed in. After closing the door, Hannibal opened the underground passage under the fireplace, and suddenly a warm current surged from the ground.

"Sorry, I can't afford to install a gas lamp, but it's not far away. It'll be fine in a short while." Seeing the dark passage, Hannibal said awkwardly. Camus glanced at the passage. Because of his dark vision, he could see clearly. There was a wooden door under the passage, and judging by the heat, there must be a fireplace underground.

"Lead the way." Camus said in a low voice, and Hannibal walked down with Camus.

"Eh..." As soon as Camus opened the door, he saw a large space with quite complete furniture and everything he needed. It looked like Hannibal's life was pretty good.

"They're all 'borrowed', but since I pretended to be a tax collector in order to find you, I've discovered that it's the one who makes the money faster." Seeing Camus' surprise, Hannibal said awkwardly. He had to go to other residential areas to earn a living, and over time he slowly accumulated these belongings.

"By the way, you sleep over there. Everything else is there but there is no sunlight." Hannibal relaxed a little after returning home. He took Camus to a room. It was a very nice room with a classic style. There are several oil paintings hanging on the yellow wall, a red painted desk, a gas lamp and a cabinet with some books on it.

"Are you literate?" Seeing this, Camio turned around and Hannibal nodded.

"Self-taught. This room was the old study. I temporarily remodeled it after Linka came. You will live here from now on. Those people outside won't say anything. Most of them are orphans. I adopted them. It's safe here. "

Hearing this, Camus lowered his eyes. Hannibal said before that his life was in embarrassment and he had to go out to dig for garbage. How much money did he have to adopt a child? Judging from the size, at least he wasn't adopted recently.

"Ka..." Hannibal, who was still talking nonstop, suddenly found a cold hard object behind him. He immediately raised his hand and spoke in a low voice.

"Linka is indeed not that dead. I picked her up on the road and she lived with me for a while, but for some reason she complained of headaches and nosebleeds every day. I took her to the doctor and the doctor said her There was a head injury, and there was no way to save this kind of injury. During this period, she told me everything that happened in the club. I knew that there were extraordinary abilities in this world, but when Linka told me the three potion formulas, I went crazy. , I tried my best to collect the materials, and the materials were unexpectedly easy to collect, but..." Speaking of this, a trace of sadness appeared on Hannibal's face.

"Linka died. She died of cerebral congestion. The next day I found her with rigor mortis in the room. It is undeniable that she was the most beautiful girl I had ever seen. She had everything I fantasized about. When she died Then my whole world fell apart."

"After I buried her with my own hands that day, I started looking for you..."

Seeing that Hannibal's tone was slightly higher, Camus silently moved the gun to his head.

"What do you want from me?"

"My sister had the same experience as Linka. When I found her body, it was on a homeless man's table. I knew who did it, but I didn't have the ability to retaliate against them. I kept waiting for the opportunity in the slums, and finally ... Linka gave me hope, she gave me the potion formula... the potion formula, what a precious thing."

Kamiu said calmly, "I'm not interested in your tragic experience. Tell me what you want from me. Why did you lie to me?"

Hannibal was silent for a long time before speaking in a low voice.

"I need companions to take revenge on the Khani family, but most people in Bilin City avoid them. Only you... Linka tells me how powerful you are every day. He admires you, so much so that she told me "If I want revenge, I must find you. After Linka died, I used my sense of smell to go door to door to find you, and finally found you today."

Kamiu heard the words and thought about the loopholes in it. Because Linka was controlled by the puppet master, her brain was irreversibly damaged. Because she is an ordinary person, her death is a matter of time. In other words, this guy Hannibal knows it. I deceived myself with emotion and reason.

"What a brilliant method. Have you found me now?" After figuring out the link, Camus said calmly, and Hannibal smiled awkwardly.

"After confirming that you are Mr. Sherlock Conan as Linka said, I am going to trick you into cooperating with me. If I don't say so? Will you come with me? Mr. Sherlock Conan? From Linka's statement , I know you are an indifferent person, but people always have feelings. It is just that the more indifferent people like you attach more importance to feelings, if I tell the truth, you will at most care a little, and the worse Linka is, the more you will have. A strong desire for revenge, which I learned in the ghetto.”

"So everything is false?" Hearing his admission, Camus took a deep breath. She was still too kind and should have beaten this guy to death in the first place.

"No...it's true. It's true that we must take revenge even if we throw away our lives. Linka's hatred is true. Linka was violated. It's true. My hatred is true. My feelings are true. The gold coins are true." It's true what I killed and snatched back." Hannibal immediately refuted Camia's righteous words after hearing this.

"Have you found that group of people?" Kamiao whispered after hearing this, and Hannibal nodded solemnly.

"Those people are gangs in the slums. They kidnap and traffic children and collude with the Khani family. I don't have the ability to kill them. I can only place my hope on you." At this point, Hannibal took out a list.

"Extraordinary? No wonder you don't have a chance." When she saw the clear names, backgrounds, abilities, ages, etc. on the list, Kamius suddenly understood why Hannibal was looking for her, a person who didn't even take the potion. It's really too difficult for people to deal with extraordinary people.

"When are we going to take action? I know their route of action." Feeling the pistol leave his head, Hannibal excitedly turned his head to look, and Camus slapped him in the face.

"There's no hurry, let's settle the score first and blow up the house for 260 gold coins..."

"Isn't it 230? I heard it." Before Camus could finish speaking, Hannibal immediately retorted. Camus couldn't help but punch him again?

"Don't hit me, I'll give it to..." After receiving a punch, Hannibal was honest and ran out reluctantly, then ran back with a money bag in his arms.

"Here... stop fighting. Isn't it miserable enough?" Hannibal generously counted 300 gold coins and handed them to Camus. His wallet was immediately reduced by two-thirds. This is what he has done these days. of hard-earned money.

Looking at his bruised and swollen face, Camus also felt that if he continued to beat him like this, he might really be beaten to death. However, he was actually deceived by this bastard, and decided to deal with him after he recovered.

"Okay, you are the first person to deceive me. I will accept the money and use it as a selling fee."

"Hehe... I told you to go ahead and do it. No one can find it here. Who are you going to kill first? How about the Snake Fire guy?" After hearing this, Hannibal said with great interest, he recommended the Snake Fire It was the gang boss on the list, a stage two fighter. Kamiao heard the words and spoke calmly.

"You don't need to do it yourself to kill, just wait."

"What's the meaning?"

"It means, I'm unlucky enough today, I want to be quiet? Do you know what quiet means? That's not a person, but you shut up and now... get out." Looking at the fire in Camus, Hannibal was frightened. De Ji Ling ran out, and Kamiao immediately closed the door and hung the clothes in the closet.

"What a weird-tempered person. Maybe he is a big shot?" Hannibal, who was bruised and swollen outside the door, muttered.
