Why it never ends

Chapter 177 Screen
On the outskirts of Tanyi North Station, Avinash and his subordinates were waiting for the change on a safe high ground, and everyone looked at the broken vault of the station without saying a word.

They all heard Schmidt's screams, one after another, echoing in the dark corridor, from begging for mercy, to cursing, then changing back to confession, and finally fading away.

In the mercury needles outside, some people have already started to cover their faces and cry, for the poor old inspector and for their powerless self; some clasped their hands and whispered prayers for Schmidt; more people were silent and looked away Waiting for the night to end.

The medical team bandaged Avinash's wound. Since the bullet directly pierced the flesh and did not explode, his injury was not particularly serious. He only needed to go to the underground hospital at Tanyi Reserve Base after dawn. You don't have to worry about the wound anymore.

About a quarter of an hour passed, and the three mercury needles that had rushed to Clier's farm earlier returned.

"Why did you come back... not to let you—"

"Victoria is not at Clier's Farm!" One of them replied, "We searched the farm inside and out, but we didn't find her at all... By the way, Viscount Richie also—"

"Avinash!" Victoria's voice came from not far away.

Avinash raised his head and saw that Victoria's team was rushing towards him over the roofs.

That is indeed not the direction of Clier Farm.

There was a victorious smile on Victoria's face, as if she had just accomplished something, and Avinash loathed that expression, especially at this moment.

"...what's the matter?" Victoria stopped beside Avinash, after seeing his injured arm and the dilapidated vault in the distance, Victoria realized something, "You and 'it' are facing each other Have you fought?"

Avinash didn't answer.

Victoria looked around, "Where is Inspector Schmidt? Why don't you see anyone else?"

She saw the tear stains on the faces of other mercury needles, and realized a certain possibility.

"Where is he now?"

"In the station," Avinash replied. "The assassin may be in there now."

Victoria was startled, the smile on her face gradually faded, "...then why are you all outside?"

Avinash stood up, "We got a very clear battle image, about the assassin, it—"

Before he finished speaking, Victoria's team had already rushed towards the station.

The other quicksilver needles looked at Avinash, "Sir, do we want to..."

"Leave the rest to them." Avinash stood up and said to the man nearby, "You go and deal with the next thing with Victoria, and then report the progress to me; the rest of the people go The police station is on standby, I am going to the reserve base now, and I will come over to join you in a while."

……

If there is anything tonight that really exceeded Avinash's expectations, there is probably only one:
Schmidt is still alive.

Although the old inspector had suffered unimaginably cruel torture, when Victoria arrived with people, he was still alive - the assassin did not cut off Schmidt's head as it predicted, it All that was left was blood stains and stumps, and the life of the old police inspector.

Why would the assassin do this?
A relatively benign guess: The assassin suddenly lost interest in killing Schmidt.

Another guess is more logical: Today is not the day the assassin decided to kill Schmidt, so it did not do it.

Victoria immediately sent the old man to the hospital for rescue, but she also understood that it was hard to say whether the rescue at this moment was really saving the old man's life, or simply prolonging his pain.

She didn't want to think about it.

From the people sent by Avinash, Victoria had a preliminary understanding of what happened tonight.She heard half of it, and immediately realized what Avinash was really doing tonight, and a wave of anger rose in her heart.

After Schmidt pushed into the operating room, she and several colleagues slept in the hospital for several hours.

They left the hospital early in the morning, as the sun was rising in the east on November 11.

Everyone is aware that there is a high probability that there will be an extremely difficult battle tonight, but no one talks about it. Recalling the tragedy of Schmidt last night, some people are secretly frightened and feel pity, while others are completely trapped. In a state of excitement, the fighting desire in their blood was suddenly awakened, and they wished that it would be dark in the next second.

Victoria let the main force of the battle tonight continue to go back to the apartment to rest, and she took the rest of the people back to the police station to find Avinash.

……

Avinash in the police station has been waiting for her for a long time now.

As soon as they met, Avinash said, "Where did you get Rishi?"

"It's an absolutely safe place, so you don't need to worry about it." Victoria replied lightly.

Avinash felt the subtle change in the attitude of the other party, but he didn't care, "Thank you, I still need you to send this video back to the data analysis center of AHgAs as soon as possible—"

"Let me see first." Victoria interrupted him again.

Everyone turned off the lights in the conference room, and Victoria chose a seat far away from Avinash to sit down.

When the battle scene from last night appeared on the screen, one of Avinash's subordinates also said: "After preliminary analysis of the scene last night, we estimate that the assassin's height is between 2.12 and 2.23 meters, and his weight is around 80 to 85 kg. Of course, the specific data still needs to wait for the analysis of traces on the scene; the assassin is left-handed, and most of its force movements are completed with the left hand, and its—”

"Quiet."

Victoria stared at the assassin on the screen, while Avinash kept looking at her expression.

Obviously, Victoria was very interested in this image.Her eyes never left the screen from just now, and her body leaned forward slightly.

However, only a dozen seconds passed, and Victoria's expression gradually changed from the initial concentration to bewilderment.

Her brows were tightly furrowed, and her eyes were full of disbelief. Then, a momentary "enlightenment" flashed between her brows, and she fell back on the back of the chair, pressing her forehead with her right hand, as if she had been hit by something, and fell into a a bigger problem.

The video was not long, and when the lights in the meeting room were turned on again, Avinash heard her take a deep breath, which puzzled Avinash.

He clasped his fingers, put them in front of him, and said in a low voice, "What do you think? This kind of picture should be enough for the base to conduct motion analysis."

Victoria didn't answer right away, she covered her eye sockets with her hands and pressed gently.

"...What kind of 'Assassin' is this?" She stared at the screen, "This is clearly 'Doctor Jiashe'."
