old dream

Chapter 113 Section of the Train

According to the results of the meeting a few days ago, Giulio's name must be removed from Cestalo's core list.

Luka drew up a new list in public, and counting the time, the letter with the list should have arrived at Cincily's hometown today.

That is to say, from now on, Mr. One will not be responsible for Julio's safety.

Combined with Julio's own increasingly high-profile actions, Arecio is forced to reconsider her situation.

So Julio is at his most vulnerable right now, both on an extraordinary and mundane level.

This is enough for Arecio to make up his mind to take Julio away.Both in terms of necessity and feasibility.

And this vacancy itself also gave him an opportunity to take advantage of it.

It's all speculative, so Julio wasn't overly surprised when Colin hurried to Julio's apartment to tell her what might happen tonight.

Because in the past few days, they have already discussed several possible outcomes.

"Then follow the previous arrangement." Julio said calmly on the surface, but his tone was thinner than usual, revealing her nervousness.

"Let's talk about it first." Colin said:

"I will try my best to abide by the agreement and let Arecio leave Stade intact. But if the situation is urgent..."

I can only recklessly kill him.

There is a high probability that it is just an extravagant hope to be merciful, after all, you don't even know if you can beat the opponent.

"I understand." Julio said softly.

…………

First, get Julio out of the apartment.

Colin didn't want to hurt those gunmen who were just ordinary people, and he didn't want passers-by to witness that he was involved with demons and witchcraft.

Under normal circumstances, Julio's travels are inevitably accompanied by several bodyguards.

So now, the gunman that Ke Lin personally installed came in handy.

He is under "Dirty Finger" Dejo.Moreover, Colin had already confessed to him that he would do everything possible to cover up Julio's going out from others.

There was a knock on the door soon, and when Colin opened the door, the gunman was waiting outside:

"The three went home," he said:
"Two are guarding the main entrance, and one is going to the toilet. Move faster."

No matter how reliable a person is, it is impossible to stay on duty 24 hours a year. Gang members also have their own families, and they also have to eat and drink.

Most importantly, the discipline of "soldiers" is not as good as that of real soldiers.

Colin nodded his thanks and took Julio out of the apartment quickly through the back door.

Then they met Giovanni in an alley not far from the apartment.

As the famous "Scarface", Giovanni looked very serious today.Before the three got on the inner city train, he kept his mouth tightly shut and didn't say a word.

"Why, are you scared?" Colin asked him half-jokingly, trying to relieve his tension.

"If I'm still afraid."

Giovanni looked out of the open car window, at the scene that slowly moved backward amid the clang:
"Then I may have packed my things and ran back to Arecio obediently."

Giovanni had previously told Colin that if Aresio killed ten of them in one go one day, he wouldn't be surprised.

That's why Giovanni's expression is very different from usual. After all, the opponent is Aresio, and a rookie like Colin is useless.

"If you feel that there is no hope of winning." Colin stared into his eyes: "Why did you choose this side?"

"I didn't say it was impossible to win," said Giovanni:
"If my face looks a little strange, then you can just think I'm excited."

"No matter how small the hope is, it is still hope. And there are only two things in this world that can really cheer me up. Apart from the hearty fighting, it is a gamble that has no chance of winning."

"This matter has both sides, so I have to be more serious, more serious than when I do those boring jobs."

"Sometimes I can't tell the difference myself." Giovanni leaned back on the seat, intending to sleep and rest before the battle, and pulled down the brim of his hat to shade himself. He half-closed his eyes and said:
"I will stand here with Capello. Is it to fulfill the agreement of my old friend, or I can't help but want to gamble at the end."

Colin twitched the corners of his mouth, still unable to accept his wonderful way of happiness.

But no matter what Giovanni thinks, Colin must win Arecio.

"Have you ever seen Arecio make a move?" Colin asked.

The cooperation between this pair is often Giovanni in front, and Alessio hiding behind the scenes.

Maybe Aresio seldom fights by himself, but since Giovanni has a general grasp of the strength of the Lantern Keeper, it shows that he is not ignorant of Aresio's fighting methods.

"Most of the time he doesn't really need to make a shot."

"He only gave some pointers through those chess pieces. Unless there is a situation that I can't handle alone."

"But if it really comes to this time, I have basically lost half of my life, and my mind is rarely clear. So over the years, I have no chance to see exactly how he killed people, at least not completely. "

Giovanni's voice muffled from under his wide-brimmed hat, and he didn't have much information about his partner.

It seems that Aresio usually hides his strength deliberately from his fangs.

And judging by the results, he was quite prescient.

Colin and the others chose to take the west sinking line, which leads to the western suburbs of Stade, where most of the area is still swampy wild land.At this point in time, the dangling carriage was empty, and there were basically no other passers-by.

"Alessio is different from us. Even if he is not a lampkeeper, he is a very talented person."

"I don't know why he didn't take another way to ascend to Ziyue. If he wanted to, he probably would have already done so. Maybe he still has some nostalgia for returning to the path of being a lampkeeper."

"But for someone like me."

Giovanni pointed to his left chest, meaning a person whose heart shell is completely closed:
"Even if he actually did something, I wouldn't notice anything. Sometimes it feels like he's playing tricks, something unusual happens, and then the person or non-human being on the other side disappears."

Giovanni laughed from under his wide-brimmed hat:

"But this stupidity isn't necessarily a bad thing, is it?"

Giovanni was right. It is unrealistic to expect an ordinary person to understand the details of wizard battles.

At this time, nearly three weeks had passed since the confrontation with Aresio in the "Naler House" theater.

Compared to when he had to use Julio as a threat at that time, Colin's strength has also undergone earth-shaking changes.From an ordinary person to a wizard in Ziyue.

But Colin thought to himself that when facing the lamp keeper, the biggest hole in his hand might still be Julio.

Colin sighed, looking at the twilight in the sky outside the car window, and once again began to think about the way to defeat Aresio.

And the accident happened at this moment.

…………

After Giulio's first public appearance in the speakeasy, Alessio, who had already been working on the entry permit, changed his mind and planned to send Giulio to the hinterland as soon as possible.

Initially, he deliberately used the witchcraft called "fog" to cover up all the portraits and photos related to Julio.This is to prevent killers hired by the enemy from identifying targets through photos.

It is also to completely erase the past related to her.

So that she can start a new life in a safe place.

But as far as Julio is concerned, this extremely humble request is also close to a luxury.

In order to accomplish this almost impossible task, Arecio has been on guard against most of the people around him for more than ten years.

So when Giovanni began to have personal contact with Colin, he knew what his fangs would do.

After deliberately disclosing information to Giovanni, it is not so difficult for him to follow an ordinary person.

After Colin brought Julio out, Alessio followed them into the carriage.

This is at best a conspiracy, after all, both sides know that this battle is inevitable.So they all make use of this prediction a little bit to make the battle more controllable.

And do yourself a little favor.

…………

Colin saw that the carriage was disconnected in front of his eyes, and almost raised his hand to rub his eyes.

First, a thin line appeared from the floor like a vision, horizontally, and then slowly revealed from the middle what was under the floor, which was the steel rails and the ballast road that retreated rapidly.

Only then did Colin realize that the carriage was broken, and it was broken without even a sound.

Colin looked up and saw that Julio, who was sitting across from him, had the same surprised expression on his face, and was walking away from him.

Colin was still sitting on the seat. He came to his senses and reached out to grab something, but it was out of reach.Because at this time, the thin line has rapidly expanded to a width of one and a half meters.

Giovanni woke up because he felt the stall. He threw away the wide-brimmed hat on his face and tried to stand up, but found that there was less than four centimeters of the floor in front of the seat.He almost fell onto the rails because of his unstable center of gravity.

Then gunshots rang out from nowhere.Colin dodged for a moment, wasting a little more time in doing so.

He glanced back and saw a bullet hole in the back of his seat.

The half of the car that Colin and Giovanni were in was losing power.

So they are slowly moving away from Julio's seat.

As a result, the front half of the car shrunk in view, and Colin began to be able to see the roof of the opposite car.

He saw that it was Aresio standing there.He was still wearing the yellow shirt, like a commuter coming home from the train.

Alessio held a pistol in his left hand, smoking from the muzzle.And the right hand didn't know what he had done, a large amount of blood had already seeped from his shirt sleeve, covering his entire arm.

At this time, the distance between the two carriages had increased to two and a half meters, and the carriage that Ke Lin and the others were in was still stalling.

Colin turned over and moved to the aisle, running in the opposite direction of the train.He directly crushed the vial of pheromone in his hand, allowing them to enter the blood in the most direct way.

The parasitic bacteria in the blood were instantly ignited, releasing a large amount of stimulating substances.

At the same moment, Arecio in the opposite carriage also jumped down to Julio's position. He stretched out his hand to pull up the girl on the seat, and at the same time raised his left hand, ready to shoot Colin with a pistol.

But he may rarely shoot himself, or it may be due to inexplicable hand injuries.He aimed hard, but he couldn't pull the trigger.

"Bang, bang."

So Giovanni took the lead and fired two shots first.

One shot was narrowly dodged by Arecio, and the other shot flew the gun in his left hand.

Alessio's right thumb was also broken because of this. With a painful look on his face, he directly pulled Julio and started walking towards the carriage door.

Colin and the others were sitting at the front of the carriage, and the carriage door was less than five meters away from Aresio.

At this time, the distance between the two carriages had expanded to four meters.

Colin turned around and began his run-up before the jump.

The leg muscles were convulsed due to the sudden change of state, but at this moment, he couldn't take care of much.

He gradually charged forward, leaning forward and low like a leopard.

What would happen if you fell on the rails?

I will stall and roll because of contact with the ground.

And the second half of the carriage is still moving forward due to inertia, at least hundreds of pairs of steel wheels and a carriage weighing dozens of tons will crush one's body into a pulp.

With one foot on the cross-section of the carriage floor, Colin suddenly jumped forward.

The moment of staying in the air seems to be extremely long. I can feel the front compartment is approaching rapidly, and the body starts to fall after rising.But Colin kept staring at Arecio's figure.

Alessio had already opened the door of the carriage compartment and pushed Julio into it.

Colin hit the floor of another carriage, and deftly used a roll to relieve the inertia and got up.

At this time, the door of the carriage was closed, and there was a sound of locking from the other side.

Arecio got the conductor's key ahead of time.

Colin didn't look at the door again, because he knew that it was unlikely that he would break through it in a very short time.

He can open that door, but it will take time.

Moreover, he broke in rashly, and didn't know what was waiting for him on the other side of the door.

He pulled out the belt around his waist, which was one and a half meters long.It was a handicraft made of linen rope, which was actually stronger than leather.

Colin turned his head and saw that Giovanni had also reached the aisle.There was blood on his right hand, and it seemed that he had used the same method as himself to enter the excited state.

At this time, the distance between the carriages was close to five meters.

"Dare you jump?" Colin asked provocatively.

"What do you think?!" Giovanni replied with a grim expression.

After finishing speaking, Giovanni sprinted forward, and Colin saw the timing and threw out the belt in his hand.

At the highest point in mid-air he grabbed Colin's belt and began to sink.

The moment Giovanni grabbed the belt, Colin inexplicably remembered the feeling when he caught a big fish with a fishing rod.

He turned sharply without a word, some blood vessels were crushed by the arm muscles, and some bloody arrows shot from the skin.While swinging his waist, he threw the belt forward with all his strength.

And Giovanni was like a bell hanging on the whip, and was slammed onto the floor in front of Colin.
