Chapter 65 The Secret of the Sewer
Lundini gradually entered the night.
Aaron slowly followed John. The latter seemed to be in a good mood. His short body could not help but twist a few times as he walked. Based on his exchange with the owner of the tavern before leaving the tavern, Aaron guessed that he was probably
Reached a consensus with the tavern owner on the price of the rat fighting show.
Although the job of a rat catcher is relatively free and better than that of a busy worker in a sweatshop, the money earned is not too much. If he can find a side job that can make money, it will definitely be a good idea for John.
A good thing.
Aaron was going to follow John home like this. Knowing where the ratcatcher lived, he turned back to the tavern and told Old Bird the address, using this information in exchange for information about the crowned extraordinary man.
This plan sounds very easy, but Aaron did not relax his vigilance. During the tracking process, he always kept a tightrope to avoid any accidents - this was not just because Aaron was too pushy about himself.
His physique is amazing, especially because of Aaron’s understanding of Old Bird!
This is information worth 2,000 pounds. How could it be so simple?
Old Bird has always been an "honest" businessman who "gets what he pays for the price". He values being right and never does business at a loss. If this task was really that simple, Old Bird would not entrust Aaron to it at all.
Just do it casually.
In other words, the difficulty of this task must at least match the value of 2,000 pounds.
"But the question is, how difficult can such a task be?"
Aaron frowned and muttered to himself, but before he finished speaking, John, who had been within his field of vision, suddenly disappeared.
Aaron: "?"
After losing the mission target, he quickly quickened his pace and ran quickly to the location where John disappeared.
Only then did Aaron understand why John suddenly disappeared from his sight - there was a wellhead leading to the city sewer where he disappeared, and the manhole cover that was supposed to cover the wellhead was casually placed aside.<
/p>
Obviously, John entered the shaft leading to the sewer.
Aaron looked at the dark wellhead and fell into brief contemplation.
Did John fall in accidentally?
It shouldn't be. There is a warning sign posted next to it. Anyone who is not blind can see it.
After hesitating for a moment, Aaron looked under the wellhead with a look of disgust. As the pungent smell of the sewer poured into his nose, Aaron saw John through the faint light in the sewer - only the short trapper could be seen.
The Rat Man is carrying two cages and walking swiftly through the sewer.
He was still in a pretty good mood and was humming a song as he walked. In the empty sewer, his tuneless singing kept echoing, allowing Aaron, who looked into the sewer, to clearly hear what he was singing.
: "Two mice, two mice, run fast..."
Aaron's mouth twitched slightly.
It can be seen that John did this on purpose.
Then, Aaron thought of a somewhat scary thought:
Is this ratcatcher living in a homeless place and sleeping in the city sewers of Lundini every day?
Aaron rubbed his temples and cursed through gritted teeth:
"I knew that old fox had absolutely no good intentions!"
But despite the scolding, Aaron still entered the shaft with a look of disgust.
He entered the hidden state, quietly stepped on the ladder leading to the sewer, entered the smelly sewer in three or two steps, and continued his tracking operation.
Unlike the streets of Lundini, there were definitely only the two of them in the sewers, so Aaron deliberately kept a longer distance to avoid John noticing his presence. Whenever John was almost out of sight, he would
Move forward and quickly catch up.
Relying on the effect of the destiny balance, Aaron was not thrown away by John. He just followed John and moved forward in the twists and turns of the Lundini Sewer.
Lundini's sewer has a long history. It is not only the blood vessel of this city, but also the most disgusting place in this glamorous city! It is filled with a lot of grease, filth and various disgusting gases.
It's a huge, terrifying cellar.
After just breathing the air here for more than ten minutes, Aaron felt a little uncomfortable and felt nauseous. But John seemed to be back home, walking faster and faster.
He didn't even need additional lighting. He could identify the direction just by the almost insignificant light in the sewer. John's familiarity with the sewer made Aaron couldn't help but doubt that he could find his purpose even with his eyes closed.
Land.
The squeaking sounds of mice kept ringing in the sewers, and occasionally more terrifying and unexplained sounds could be heard. Aaron could only feel numbness in his back, and he subconsciously held the metal box containing the rabid dog in his arms.
Medium - In this environment, only large-caliber weapons can give him a sufficient sense of security.
But soon, when Aaron followed John around a corner, a bright light illuminated the sewer.
This light seemed so rare in the dim sewer that Aaron couldn't help but show a little excitement, but he quickly stopped - because John stopped first.
There is a small room in the sewer that emits bright light. There is a simple bed, a bright oil lamp, a desk and some mouse-catching tools. Compared with the disgustingly dirty sewer,
This small room is like a clean and tidy paradise!
Obviously, this is where John lives.
This rat catcher actually lives in the sewers of Lundini.
However, what was emitting bright light in the room was not the oil lamp that John placed in the room, but a large lamp with fierce firepower. And the person holding the big lamp was a tall ghoul.
The moment he saw the ghoul's face clearly, Aaron's eyes suddenly widened, and he quickly hid the whole person behind the corner. He only poked out one eye and continued to stare at the room - you can see,
Besides the ghoul with the big lamp, there was another man in the room.
He is waiting for John's return.
The brutal ghoul was quietly waiting behind the man, lighting him up.
It looks like a loyal dog, loyally guarding its owner.
Aaron narrowed his eyes.
He realized that he knew the man who commanded the ghouls.
Mark Lewis.
Lundini is a well-known rich man, the kidnapped victim in the kidnapping case twelve years ago, and the generous donor Aaron met at the Leitz church in the morning.
The person waiting for John with the ghoul turned out to be him.
Aaron felt a little reluctant to give up. The amount of information discovered was too great. As long as he left safely with this news, he might be able to completely end the serial murder case!
He felt that there was no need to deal with this situation alone - wouldn't it be nice to call Major Taylor and ask him to lead someone to handle this matter?
