Two Cities: I am building a mecha in Pi City
Chapter 40 The turbulent dark alley
"Little girl, don't worry, do you want to tell us what happened?"
Caitlin knelt on the ground with one knee bent, holding the gun in her arms, putting one hand on Bao Bao's shoulder, and gently wiping away the tears from the corner of her eyes with the other hand, and asked in a soft voice as much as possible.
Bao Bao blinked his tearful eyes. After receiving such concern from Caitlin, all the grievances and sadness in his heart suddenly burst out and he began to cry loudly:
"F, Fandel, he...wuwuwu..."
Recalling the scene I saw just after I came out of Forgan's Tavern, the scarlet liquid everywhere, the smell of blood in the air, the painful groans of the seriously injured...
Baobao's face gradually turned pale, his bloodless lips trembled slightly, fear emerged in his heart, and he stammered and couldn't utter a complete sentence.
Caitlin saw her emotional instability, put her arms around her shoulders, hugged her into her arms, and patted her back to comfort her:
"Don't be afraid, you are already safe..."
It turns out that Caitlin is quite good at dealing with children.
After a while, Baobao gradually stopped crying and calmed down a lot, but he would still sniffle from time to time.
Li Lin also lowered his body as much as possible, "Bangbao, can you tell us what exactly happened?"
"Tonight, a group of people came to Fandel and had a conflict. Those people injured everyone in the tavern and took Fandel away..."
Exploding voice choked with sobs, paused for a moment and then continued: "Wei and Clegg went to see Severka and Benso for help, and Milo went to follow those who captured Fandel..."
"Isn't Fandel the leader of the black alley? How come he is captured by others in his own territory?"
Caitlin glanced at Jace, telling him not to interrupt, and then continued to ask for some details.
It's a pity that Bao Bao, who didn't witness the battle scene with his own eyes, only knows roughly what happened.
Moreover, when she came out, she was still frightened by the scene in the tavern. Even now, her whole body is still trembling and shaking.
"We have to check out Fulgan's Tavern."
Li Lin was not in a very good mood. He suspected that Fandel was probably captured at this time and was transformed into a werewolf by Singed in the following years.
Fandel is still Wei and Baobao's adoptive father, and he absolutely cannot sit back and let this happen without a care.
Jace was not very willing to waste time on strangers, "But what about Caitlin's parents?"
"I also think the investigation should start with Vandel's capture."
Caitlin agreed with Li Lin's idea.
"The attack on the Evolution Day Conference just happened in the upper city, and my parents were arrested. There was turmoil in the dark alleys of the lower city... I suspect that the person who arrested Fander should have clues about my parents, and may even be behind the scenes. Black Hand.”
It's not as if they were behind the scenes, but they were definitely being used, by the guy codenamed "C".
Li Lin added in his heart.
Jess shrugged helplessly, "Then... okay, I'll just listen to you."
Li Lin controlled the armor and closed the mask again, stood up, "Bangbao, let's go to Fulgen's Tavern first."
…
…
A few minutes later, a group of people rushed to Forgan's Tavern along with the crowd.
The place has long been occupied by members dressed as gangs. About a dozen strong men are busy treating injured people in the bar who are still alive.
However, due to many factors such as medical equipment, sanitary conditions, few people with medical skills, and untimely rescue.
So far, ten of the more than twenty people have completely lost their voices, and their souls have returned to the realm of the dead.
Just as Li Lin and his party were approaching, a voice full of anger and impatience stopped them: "The tavern is closed and we are not welcoming guests today. Go back to where you came from."
Because they were heavily armed, at least 30 people inside and outside Fulgan's Tavern stopped what they were doing, grabbed their weapons, and stared at them with eagerness and vigilance.
Most of them focused on Li Lin, who was wearing power armor, and didn't pay much attention to Caitlin and Jace, who were holding guns and hammers.
Jace stood the hammer on the ground, feeling helpless, "We're not here to drink."
He turned sideways and noticed a bald man with a dense brown beard frowning and looking at them with an unhappy expression.
"I don't care if you're a drinker or not, get out of here, you uptowner." The bald man's tone was not polite at all.
At this time, Blast squeezed out from behind Caitlin and ran to the bald man, "They are here to help!"
"You are...Fander's little daughter?"
The bald man recognized Bao Bao and waved to his brothers, asking them to continue busy with their own affairs.
Then, he sighed and squatted down, his eyes were level with Baobao, and his tone was much calmer: "Why are you with these people from the upper city?"
"I'm here to ask them for help." Blast bit his lip, "And they are Fandel's friends."
"Friends? Heh, why didn't I know that Fandel has friends in the upper city?"
The bald man glared at Li Lin, Caitlin and Jace with stern eyes, then lowered his eyes and continued to look at Bao Bao.
"You won't be fooled by these guys, will you?"
Being provoked and questioned by the bald head one after another, Jess's temper suddenly rose, "Hey, you guy..."
"Calm down Jace, we're not here to cause trouble."
Caitlin frowned and reached out to stop Jace, who was about to rush forward to argue.
"We do have a relationship with Fander. You can ask Benso or Sevika about this."
She looked directly into the bald man's eyes that were shining with fierce light, and there was no wave in her heart.
"We were originally going to ask Fandel for a favor, but we met Bao Bao on the road. We heard that Fandel was in trouble, so we were ready to help.
"But I think you don't seem to trust us. In that case, we can just leave and we won't cause any trouble to you."
After saying that, Caitlin walked away without hesitation.
Li Lin saw at a glance that this was her provoking method, touched Jace secretly, and followed closely behind her.
This method was often used to bargain with merchants in Li Lin's hometown before traveling through time, and it was a kind of "conspiracy."
Merchants know that this is the customer's bargaining method, but as long as the other party does not go too far, they will basically agree to the price proposed by the customer.
And this method is also applicable in other worlds.
Fandel is currently in critical condition, and Li Lin's power armor is extremely visually impactful. If they can provide help, it will definitely make the rescue of Fandel much easier.
The bald man is not a fool, and he knows this.
Before they could take a few steps, the bald man immediately stopped them, "Wait!"
The corner of Caitlin's mouth curled up slightly, then her expression calmed down and she turned around, "Is there anything else, sir?"
The bald man thought for a moment and asked the explosion in front of him: "Are you sure they can be trusted?"
"Of course! Brother Li Lin helped me before and gave us dozens of silver wheels!" Bao Bao nodded his head several times.
When did this happen?
Caitlin and Jace on the other side looked surprised, but no one raised any questions.
Now is not the time to talk about this.
"Fine."
The bald man gritted his teeth, stood up, walked to the three of them, lowered his head and half-bowed his body, making a sincere request.
"Sorry, my attitude towards you was very bad before. After all, there is turmoil in the dark alleys now. Our boss Fandel was captured by hostile forces and his situation is critical. I hope you can understand..."
He paused and said in a more respectful tone: "If possible, could you please help us rescue Fander?"
