Chapter 93 You'd better tell me now what's going on
Gerard immediately rushed out of the house and looked around.
But because his own eyes were still in the state of using the power of his left eye and had not fully recovered, he could not see very far, so naturally he could not find the person Bai Wei mentioned. And Bai Wei did not intend to trick him by letting him use his left eye at this critical moment, so he calmly pointed out the direction for him: "The top floor of the third house on the right, he is lying there."
Gerard looked over immediately and saw a small dot flash by on the house that Bai Wei mentioned.
Obviously, the other party also realized that their whereabouts were exposed, so they retreated quickly.
Gerard immediately chased after him, shouting in his mind, "I can't see him clearly! Help me find him!"
"No problem." Bai Wei said calmly, "This degree can still be counted as part of the deal. Since you were so sincere to me before, I will...ah, turn left."
Gerard staggered and nearly fell, but adjusted himself in time and quickly turned into the alley on the left.
"And then what?!" Gerald continued to ask.
"Go straight first, then turn right... No, keep going straight, ah, no, turn right."
This series of instructions confused Gerald. He turned around several times but didn't know how to go. He immediately questioned Bai Wei in his heart: "What do you mean?!"
"Calm down. I'm not kidding you." Bai Wei said, "It's really your friend's problem. He's even more panicked than you. He ran for a long time but didn't know where to go. He's like a headless fly...ah, go straight now, quickly."
Gerard always felt that Bai Wei was playing a trick on him, but there was nothing he could do as he couldn't see where the other person was.
You have to know that this area covers a large area. During its heyday, there were several thousand households. After all, since the establishment of Lyra City and the start of the fight against pollution, successive "Knights of the Evening Star" of Lyra and their families have lived here. Although most of the people are gone now, the houses are still left. It is very easy to hide a person in so many houses, and by that time Gerard will not be able to search one by one.
So now, Gerard had no choice but to obey Bai Wei.
Fortunately, Bai Wei's commands became much more normal afterwards, and the instructions to the left and right were very clear, which allowed him to run smoothly.
Gradually, Gerard seemed to hear another set of footsteps, just a few houses away, and he should be able to catch up soon.
"To be honest, that guy has better equipment than you. At least his two legs are prosthetics." Bai Wei's voice sounded in Gerard's mind again. "He is much faster than you, but he obviously doesn't understand the terrain here. He ran into dead ends several times, and you slowly caught up with him."
Bai Wei's words did not make Gerard feel relieved, but instead made him feel heavy in the heart.
If the other party is really Hermo, he shouldn't be so unfamiliar with this place.
To outsiders who were not familiar with this residential area, the layout was undoubtedly no different from a maze, but to Xiaoxing, this was home.
Is there really anyone who doesn’t remember the way home?
Although there is a possibility that his memory has been affected by the contamination, he clearly still remembers Shana.
So, is that person really Herme?
If so, why didn't he come back to me?
If not, then who is he?
At this moment, Gerard recalled the question Bai Wei had asked him earlier: "If you could, would you rather your comrades live to this day, or die forever in that polluted land?"
Jellal clenched his fists.
He has been pursuing the truth for ten years, ten whole years.
He had had countless nightmares over the past ten years, and each one brought him back to that year, but only made him recall some fragmented fragments and never let him reach the truth.
But now, is he finally getting to it?
If that was really Helmer, would he know everything?
Will he tell me everything?
Gerard didn't know, he just quickened his pace, leaving behind one empty house after another that had long been uninhabited and looked like tombstones.
This gave Gerald a sense of déjà vu.
It was as if all the Knights of Vesperia who had died for Lyra over the past thousands of years were silently watching him at this moment.
Bai Wei's sudden voice broke Gerard's contemplation: "Oh no, this guy is going to the station. Once he gets on the train, it will be difficult for you to deal with him, right?"
Gerard suddenly came to his senses and realized that they were almost at the station without realizing it.
Just as Bai Wei said, once the other party gets in the car, it will be really difficult to deal with.
Although not many people get on and off "Rim Station", there are very busy stations before and after "Rim Station", so there must be a lot of people on the gear train, and the variables will be great at that time.
Jellal sped up, trying to catch up with him immediately, but they were already here, and there was no way he could get lost. His superior metal prosthetic limbs were obviously faster than Jellal's 70% flesh legs. Realizing this, Jellal could only yell in a low voice: "What should I do?!"
"Simple." Bai Wei said calmly, "See the house in front of you? Crash into it."
Gerard widened his eyes, and after a moment of shock he finally understood what Bai Wei meant.
Although he subconsciously felt that this was not a good idea, Gerard had already seen a new gear train coming towards him on the gear track in the distance. He knew he had no time to hesitate, so he gritted his teeth and slammed into the house in front of him.
then……
"Bang", "bang", "bang", "bang".
He broke through the four walls of two houses in a row.
Then, like a running gear train, it directly knocked a running figure several meters away.
The man was hit so hard that he vomited blood, but before he could get up, he was grabbed by the collar and lifted up by Gerard.
"Is that you? Herme..."
"Don't, don't, don't kill me!" Before he could finish his words, he heard the man begging for mercy, "Don't kill me!"
Jellal's expression froze.
This is not Helmer, this is a completely unfamiliar face.
Judging from his attire, he should be an ordinary member of the Skeleton Squad.
At that moment, endless anger and disappointment surged into Gerald's heart, and he yelled at the other party: "Why are you following me?!"
The Skeleton Team member was terrified, but he still gritted his teeth and said, "You killed an assistant yesterday, and today you have a close connection with another dead assistant. Now the whole city is looking for you! And you're still asking me why I'm following you? This is my fucking job!"
Hearing this, the anger on Gerard's face gradually disappeared, and gradually turned into complexity and loss.
He let go of the frightened Skeleton Knight and said coldly: "I killed the one yesterday, but this one today... I don't know anything about it. It has nothing to do with me. Don't follow me anymore."
After saying this, without giving the knight a chance to retort, Gerard turned and left.
But before he took two steps, he heard Bai Wei speak slowly.
"I suggest you take a close look at his back, maybe you'll find something surprising."
Jellal was stunned for a moment, then turned his head suddenly and stared at the Skeleton Knight who was about to get up.
At this moment, the skeleton knight was leaning forward with his back raised high, which allowed Gerard to see the abnormal movement in his clothes, as if something was hidden.
Gerard's memory was instantly pulled back to last night's gear train.
Thinking of this, he strode forward again and grabbed the knight's shirt before he could get up.
"What are you doing..." The Skeleton Knight felt something was wrong and subconsciously wanted to resist, but he was no match for Jellal at all and his clothes were torn by Jellal almost instantly.
Then, Gerard saw the back of the Skeleton Knight.
There are two additional robotic arms,
It's even the same model as the Ocot last night.
Gerard took a few steps back.
"Cough, cough, cough..." The Skeleton Knight coughed and cursed, "Jellal, what you are doing is..."
boom!
A huge chainsaw sword was placed on the Skeleton Knight's neck, which instantly stopped him from speaking. He subconsciously raised his head and immediately met those cold eyes.
"You'd better tell me now what's going on."
