Scarlet Falls

The crowd around them dispersed like a tide, leaving only Wei Wei and the tall girl. Opposite them, ten meters away, was a cage tied with iron chains. An old man in a red suit stood quietly. Sitting in the cage and waiting, the girl squatted down with an expressionless expression and began to assemble the firearm quickly, checking its performance, and then inserted bullets one by one.

"this……"

Wei Wei was still confused and glanced at the girl: "Are you sure it's me?"

The girl gave him a cold look and ignored him.

"Xiao Wei."

At this moment, Captain Ouyang walked up behind Wei Wei and said, "Don't feel any pressure. This is arranged by Lao Zhou himself."

"I'm not stressed..."

Wei Wei also squatted down and loaded up the guns in a few seconds. His movements were much more agile than the girl's.

I glanced at the old man in the cage in the distance, not sure why he chose me.

But after all, I chose myself, so of course I have to help others.

Captain Ouyang looked at it, his face became more solemn, and he whispered: "Don't be too excited..."

"this……"

Wei Wei said seriously: "I understand that I should shoot with respect and kindness..."

Captain Ouyang frowned, feeling that Wei Wei didn't have any questions at all, but he answered too quickly.

Holding the assembled firearm, Wei Wei opened a distance of about three meters from the tall girl, and then aimed at the old man in the cage at the same time. The old man in the red suit had already sat down cross-legged, but now he slowly He stood up slowly, holding on to the bar.

He seemed to be worried that if he sat down, the bullet wouldn't cover enough ground.

"Come on, kid."

The old man in the cage smiled and said: "Don't be afraid!"

"Um?"

At this time, Wei Wei had already put the butt of his gun on his shoulder and aimed at the old man in the cage.

He clearly saw the smile on the old man's face and the way he looked directly at him, and he felt slightly shocked.

Originally, I didn't feel any respect at all.

He answered that way just because Wei Wei knew exactly how to answer in this situation.

I have always known what kind of words to say under what circumstances to make people feel more friendly and likeable, but in my heart, I actually felt a little excited because I had to kill such a war demon with my own hands. , even excited!

But until then, when I saw the old man's gentle eyes, I suddenly felt something strange in my heart.

Many people have died under his own gun, but this is the first time I see eyes like this.

"Um?"

At the same time, the girl next to him seemed to notice, turned around and smiled at Wei Wei.

This smile was so breathtakingly beautiful that many people around felt that the world had spun.

Many people even had a strange feeling in their hearts, and their eyes immediately shifted between Brother Xiao Lin and her.

It seemed like he was making a difficult choice.

"Tu tu tu tu tu tu tu..."

The next moment, the girl suddenly fired in advance, and a series of bullets whizzed towards the prison cage.

This is the first time in my life that I am actually slower than others when I shoot.

Wei Wei also immediately cocked the trigger, the gun body vibrated, the smell of gunpowder filled his nostrils, and his whole body felt numb.

A burst of bullets, carrying a murderous aura, entered the cage.

"Puff puff……"

Several streaks of blood mist instantly exploded from the old man's body, and his thin body suddenly hit the other side of the cage, as if he was about to fall, but at this moment, there was an astonishing shock. The roaring sound appeared, causing everyone around to feel dizzy.

This roaring sound was not coming from the mouth, but more like an explosion in the air.

In everyone's view, the air around the cage was suddenly distorted so much that it was almost impossible to see what was inside the cage.

All I could see was that the old man's body was obviously growing stronger, as if he had turned into a monster. With a loud bang, he hit the cage with a huge force, which actually caused the steel as thick as a human arm to bulge out of shape. It was like a real impact. Hit almost everyone in the face.

The people around were shocked, and even though they were far enough away, they still backed away.

There were only a few people left in the field, such as Sister Lucky, Uncle Gun, Xiao Lin, Brother Piggy, and Ye Feifei and others who were hiding behind Brother Piggy. There were only one or two others, and their faces were obviously confused. Full of horror and disbelief.

At this moment, Wei Wei also felt the physical impact, and his instinct made him feel like retreating.

But he firmly stepped on the ground and continued to pull the trigger.

After firing the bullets, he picked up the box with his toes, and a shotgun flew into his hand. He took a step forward and continued to shoot down.

Bah bah bah bah...

The bullets bounced and splashed, filling the cage with the smell of burning steel.

At this time, the old man's appearance was almost completely invisible in the cage. Only through the twisted air, he could see a huge and deformed monster, which was struggling to collide with the surroundings of the cage. The huge iron cage had been twisted and deformed by the collision. .

Even the thick and tight iron chains around him were rattling from the shock.

Several links were stretched to the limit and almost fell off.

"not good……"

"The fallen war monster is about to appear..."

"If I had known it couldn't be killed so easily, a row of mortars would have been enough..."

"..."

At the same time when people were panicking, Captain Ouyang suddenly gritted his teeth. Wearing a silver windbreaker, he suddenly rushed forward and flew up. He actually jumped three or four meters into the air, and landed heavily on the twisted and collapsed ground. On top of the broken iron cage.

"Old friend, let me help you..."

He whispered, and his palm suddenly reached into the iron cage and pressed on the old man's head.

The roaring and charging monsters in the cage seemed to become slightly quieter at this moment, and the intensity of the collision was reduced a lot.

Wei Wei and the girl looked at each other, and at the same time threw away the empty gun in his hand.

The girl knelt down and set up the last multi-barreled revolver from the box, which was already packed with bullets. She moved the muzzle of the gun and pointed it at the iron cage. At this moment, she looked calmly at her inside the cage. A faint tear trail slid down his face.

Then he pulled the trigger with the whistling bullet.

Wei Wei took a deep breath, grabbed another gun, changed the bullet, and continued shooting.

The bullet with almost terrifying power rushed into the old man's body, splashing blood like mist.

Under Captain Ouyang's suppression, the monster in the cage was clearly trembling, as if it was shrinking with all its strength.

Gradually, gradually...

You can feel that the demonic aura emanating from his body is fading away, as if the last sound is exhausted.

Wei Wei quickly threw the empty gun in his hand and felt that the old man was about to die.

On the other side, the tall girl's bullets were not empty yet.

Therefore, Wei Wei did not intend to shoot again, and there was no need to shoot again.

But unexpectedly, at this moment, the tall girl suddenly stopped shooting and turned to look at him.

"Xiao Wei, go on!"

Behind him, Uncle Gun suddenly threw the shotgun in his hand to Wei Wei.

When Wei Wei reached out and took the shotgun, he knew that the gun contained two special bullets.

According to Uncle Gun's usual frugality, this was a real waste of money.

"They all let themselves do it?"

Wei Wei took the shotgun and had some doubts in his heart, but he still subconsciously aimed in the direction of the cage, focusing highly on the monster, or in other words, on the old man, who should belong to The direction of the head...

At this moment, the monster's gaze was also looking towards him.

Wei Wei suddenly felt that there seemed to be something in that gaze.

The face, twisted and ferocious like a monster, seemed to be blooming with a smile.

"Bang" "Bang!"

But with lightning-like surprise in his heart, Wei Wei suddenly pulled the trigger.

The two bullets whizzed away, one after the other, and penetrated into the body of the monster in the cage. Its huge head suddenly tilted back and hit the other end of the iron cage. The last strength and vitality finally came out. It disappeared completely and slowly slid down the cage wall.

…

…

The sound of gunfire suddenly silenced, and the acrid smoke filled the air.

This was just an old man's last farewell before his death, but it gave everyone present a sense of war.

In fact, it was only three minutes at most, but amidst the roar of bullets, everyone felt that a long time had passed.

Inside the cage, the tall figure finally fell.

Beside Wei Wei and the tall girl, bullet casings fell, shining yellow, showing a special kind of beauty.

Inside the twisted cage, the old man lay quietly.

Despite being hit by so many bullets, his body still remained intact, and he had a strange sense of strength.

Captain Ouyang jumped down from the prison cage and waved his hand from a distance.

She had already walked to the switch position installed on the wall of the building in the distance in advance. Sister Lucky, who had just arrived at this moment, nodded slightly, and then pulled down the gate above. Suddenly, there was a clicking mechanism under the ground. sound.

Under the cage, the bare alloy plates receded to both sides, and the old man's body fell into the open coffin below.

Captain Ouyang watched quietly as the steel plate sealed the coffin, then suddenly kicked the coffin.

The deformed cage flew out with a clang and hit a few meters away, rolling continuously.

He looked at the sealed coffin and lay quietly in the pit under the alloy plate.

He breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the corners of his eyes quietly, pulled off the small white flowers on his chest, and threw them on the coffin.

Then he turned to look at the crowd and said, "Everyone, please observe a moment of silence."

…

…

Everyone around them looked at each other. After such a long time, their expressions gradually recovered, but there was still a shadow hanging over their hearts.

The old man had already entered the coffin and was tightly sealed.

But for some reason, they seemed to still be able to see a tall dark knight standing there quietly.

Finally, as the people from Scrap Iron City's security team stepped forward one by one and gently dropped the white flowers on their chests on top of the coffin, others boldly approached and dropped the white flowers on their chests in front of the dug pit. , and then stood quietly in a circle, bowing their heads in silence.

Wei Wei put the firearm and the bullet casings scattered around into the box and closed the lid.

He turned to look at the girl next to him, and saw that she was raising the back of her hand, wiping her tears, and then turned and walked towards Wei Wei.

Wei Wei watched her face getting closer and closer, almost at the same level as the tip of his nose.

Some don't know what to say.

You're welcome?

Or is this what I should do?

Just when he was thinking about how to say something more polite and more in line with his current situation, suddenly, this tall girl reached out and hugged him, put her cold cheek on Wei Wei's neck, and whispered: " I hope the instructor didn’t trust the wrong person.”

"...Citizens with a sense of justice!"

"..."

"this……"

When Wei Wei had just reacted, the tall girl had already turned around and walked towards the building.

"It turns out it's her..."

Because of that sentence, Wei Wei already thought of someone.

Outside Scrap Iron City, in the grass, there was the mysterious knight riding a flesh-and-blood motorcycle and wearing a frog-mouthed helmet under the pale moonlight.

"What did she mean by what she just said?

"Besides, doesn't she even need to fill in the soil herself?"

Wei Wei felt a little surprised in his heart, but he had no words to leave the girl behind.

He walked forward, as if because he still had the smell of gunpowder smoke around him, the people in front of him got out of the way.

Wei Wei threw the white flowers on his chest onto the coffin lid and sighed softly in his heart.

He bowed seriously to the old man inside the coffin.

"I'm so envious..."

For some reason, a strong emotion suddenly rose in my heart.

In the past, I had never been able to understand other people's dreams and things like love.

But now, I seem to understand.

The dream is probably to be like this old man, calm and elegant, and to find peace amidst the thrilling sound of bullets, right?

I want this too.
