Chapter 262
After a while of silence.
Arlene wiped away the tears from her face, her expression gradually sophisticated, she shook her head slightly, helplessly said, "Okay, okay! Everything is my fault, Mr. Cole, as long as it is a reasonable price, I and Teacher can accept it.
Five thousand pounds, what do you think?"
"Uh..."
Hayley was embarrassed and polite With a smile, she took Arlene's arm with her right hand and said, "In fact, we still owe him eleven thousand pounds."
The girl was shocked, opened her hands, her eyes widened, her tone of voice was extremely high. Shocked, "Eleven thousand pounds?! God, Hayley, are you serious?!
You didn't mean that the money was you..."
here.
Seems to realize something.
He hurriedly covered his mouth with his hands, his expression froze, and then smiled awkwardly at Cole.
Hayley rolled his eyes, sighed then said helplessly, sitting upright, facing Cole face-to-face, and said solemnly, "Well, Cole, there are some things I must admit.
p>The first thing, Arlene is not my student, she is my partner.
The second thing, she and I were indeed caught in, and we were caught by one of them. I bought things in the house and saw through the Old Guy of our identity.
The third thing...I did go broke."
Cole's expression remained unmoved, indifferently said, "You understand What do I want to hear, Hayley."
That's it.
The atmosphere in the room gradually became dull and depressing.
Just like Hayley's sober recognition, the relationship between them and Cole may only be so much better than that of their mortal enemies, so that they won't have to die as soon as they meet.
But.
She didn't have any reason to let the ruthless demon-hunter willingly take a huge risk and bail her and Arlene out.
I noticed that the atmosphere is not right.
Arlene opened her mouth and wanted to say something.
However, seeing Cole's cold face, he stopped talking.
Finally.
As if made up his mind, Hayley took a deep breath and said, "I know, you will never believe me.
Just ask, who would believe that a life is lied? A woman surrounded by death.
But there is one thing, I did not deceive you.
I and Arlene are not witches. To be precise, we don’t know where we come from. What is it in itself, the title Demoness is just my own name, and it is used to prevaricate you by the way.
So that one day in the future, you will be dealt with as a witch, just like today."
When she said this passage, she and Arlene looked at Cole, the fear in their eyes was not like a disguise, but more like a heavy worry.
For humans.
The deeds of Cole Walker, written into a book, must be a much talked about biography.
But if you change the perspective of the substitute and impose it on the dark creature, it will become a horror story in a full sense.
There is no doubt about it.
Being a demon-hunter of extreme danger, learning about their residence and some professional habits, this kind of thing is tantamount to digging one's own grave.
Photographed by someone's extremely bloody and cruel treatment of dark creatures.
Even Hayley Jonny, a very famous bounty killer in the industry, can only greet him with a smile.
Compared to the first time, I just reported myself for the three thousand pounds and business.
Over time.
The name Cole Walker has been spread wildly in Dark World, and apart from regret, there is only anxiety.
I went to Cole to borrow money last time.
Heaven knows For that matter, how long she wandered on the first floor of Burton Building.
Now.
They were taken to death row and even targeted by an Old Guy who was suspected of Judgement Echelon.
It is easy to want to leave here, but to live in safety is tantamount to dreaming.
If you can't whitewash your identity, even if you leave here, you can only be hunted down by the Old Guy and the Demon Hunting squad.
So, the only person who can help them is Cole.
Speaking of which.
Arlene frowned frowned, perhaps for comfort, and gently took Hayley's hand, silent.
Cole can't judge the credibility of her words.
The only certainty is that these two guys who claim to be Demoness are indeed worried about being killed by him one day.
"Go on."
Hayley and Arlene glanced at each other, their tone of voice melancholy, or emotional.
"Every Demoness is an orphan, Cole.
When mother gave birth to us, she was already dead.
We have a human body and appearance, But not accepted by the outside world, regarded as unclean and disaster, abandoned by relatives.
You must have heard of the notorious Salem Witch Trial.
Strictly speaking , The girl who was implicated and burned to death in that case is essentially the same as me.
However, in the era of rampant witches, like this Nordic wizard incident, many cautious lives Demoness in the human world will be captured as a witch, interrogated, and then burned to death on the torture rack.
From the time I can remember, the only one who helped me was a bounty that was also Demoness. Killer, it's a pity that she died, so I inherited her career.
People like us, except for living in the Dark World to make money and survive, the world under the sun has no place for us.. ."
Arlene continued, "But I can assure you, Mr. Cole, Hayley and I have never taken the initiative to harm human beings. Only for our livelihood will we take on the mission issued by the guild.
I’m okay. Apart from occasionally cheating some playboy’s feelings and money, the bakery business is enough to take care of life.
But...
Hayley’s life needs A large amount of money is maintained. That money bag is the source of all her power and the vicious curse of her life."
After that.
The two held hands and looked at each other to show comfort.
Not to mention whether Cole was moved by them, this kind of bitter love story may be fabricated, at least, they themselves were moved in a mess.
I just hugged each other on the spot and wept loudly.
But one thing is exactly the same as Cole's guess.
That purse is indeed the source of Hayley Jonny's strength.
After a while of silence, Cole said, “I’m not interested in your stories, and I don’t want to know the truth or not, but if you really are not dark creatures.
The case is transferred to the Special Department for processing.
Let the Institute of Mystery confirm your identity. If it is correct, I can guarantee your parole for a period of time."
"You ...Agree?"
It seems that there is no recollection of the past.
Hayley's voice lacks the cunning and marketers he used to face Cole, and appears quite sincere.
Cole got up, picked up the long knife on the table, indifferently said, "The Demon Hunter is not a bureaucratic machine that indiscriminately kills innocents, and I am not a cold blooded and emotionless butcher.
You are not related to the Nordic Order, this is certain.
As for the case you committed in the killer industry, I am not a police detective, and this kind of thing is not in my control.
If all goes well, within today, I will give you a definite answer.
However, if I find definite evidence of the connection between you and hell... I hope you can do this well. Be mentally prepared."
Cole walked to the door, and the right hand pulled up the handle.
Hayley hurriedly got up and said, "Thank you for your trust, Cole."
