Great, I'm surrounded by villains.

Chapter 224 Before Dawn

Coyote Twelve couldn't remember how long it had been since he felt so excited.

Forget the orders from the Flash Flag Chamber of Commerce, the duties of the mercenaries, and all the shit on Blue Star, focus on the present, and devote yourself to this duel between men.

A body that had been completely mechanized should not have any human perception. At that moment, the operating room was completely quiet, and the mechanized little finger twitched a few times.

It reminded him of the first time he duelled with someone in the desert town.

Coyote Twelve muttered to himself.

Three, two, one.

Which is faster, a sword or a bullet?

Or maybe it was Ellie and the strange life energy on this planet.

He drew his gun so quickly that it seemed as if time had stopped at that moment. He saw the blue flames spurting out of the muzzle of the revolver, and then five silver bullets were fired.

Two for Ellie and three for Duan Mingyuan.

After all the actions were completed, the first gunshot was heard finally.

At this point, Ellie had no choice but to go ahead, but he was still a little slow to react. The moment he heard the gunshot, he was forced to activate the barrier, which instantly covered the entire database, but the two bullets shot at him easily penetrated the barrier of the barrier and headed towards his chest.

What touched him before the bullet was a flying sword. The sword brushed across his neck, pierced through his coat, lifted him up into the air, and nailed him to the large instrument in the database.

Ellie also heard the slight sound of lightning flashing and a burning smell in the air.

"It seems that I was one step behind."

A hint of excitement and relief flashed across the coyote's eyes. The three silver bullets shot at Duan Mingyuan were split into two, split in mid-air, and left a scorch mark on the walls, electronic equipment and the ground.

The Ranger will eventually die on the battlefield, and the end of his journey will be later than that of others.

However, it is a great blessing to meet an opponent like Duan Mingyuan at the end of this journey instead of dying in those dirty conspiracies.

His sight began to shift, and his gaze followed the broken body towards the ceiling.

Before falling to the ground, he threw the revolver in his hand towards Duan Mingyuan. This revolver was created on the Hot Sand Star and was later modified by the Universal Company. It accompanied him for most of his life and took him to countless battlefields that were identified as "Death Stars."

And with his defeat in the duel, it became Duan Mingyuan's trophy.

However, Coyote Twelve believes that whoever can defeat him in a fair duel will be able to make good use of this revolver and take it to a more distant place.

"Pfft."

The flow of time became very slow, but from the time he drew his gun to the time his upper body fell to the ground, less than three seconds had passed.

The outcome of this duel was decided in less than three seconds.

Coyote Twelve was a cyborg, and being cut in half would not kill him immediately. His vision was still clear when he fell to the ground, so he saw Duan Mingyuan walking towards him.

Duan Mingyuan stood in front of him, looking down at the delicate patterns on the revolver.

After a moment, he concluded, "Although the criminal has committed many crimes, he voluntarily gave up resistance and handed over the tools used to commit the crime. These can be included in the circumstances for reducing the sentence. I will explain this to the police for you."

Then Coyote Twelve found himself being pulled up from the ground, and his broken body was pieced back together like building blocks.

Duan Mingyuan calmed himself down. Zheng Liu was still in a daze and couldn't come here in person, so he had to convey some words on his behalf. "Mr. Coyote Twelve, you are under arrest for intentional injury, assault, attempted murder, and assisting in opening a casino. You have the right to remain silent."

After that, he looked up at Ellie who was pinned on top of the electronic device by the flying sword, "And you, Mr. Ellie, you are charged with terrorist activities, theft, and first-degree murder."

"You're a police officer."

Coyote Twelve was a little surprised, "Police from Blue Star."

He has a natural liking for the identity of a policeman. After all, he was originally just a sheriff in a small town on Hot Sand Star, and formed a ranger to protect the town's residents from monsters and diseases. But after coming to Blue Star, he couldn't help but feel disappointed with the sheriffs here and doubted whether they really had the ability to protect the citizens.

Coyote Twelve witnessed what the Flash Flag Chamber of Commerce did in Siyang City, and often wondered that perhaps it was the incompetence of the city's sheriffs that allowed a group of outsiders to act recklessly under their noses.

"It's a man's duel. I'll admit defeat. Lead the way."

……

On the eve of dawn, it seemed to be just an ordinary day for the Siyang City Police Station. However, beneath this ordinary surface, undercurrents were surging.

Coyote Twelve and Ellie arrived at the police station early and filled out the surrender registration form before going to work.

It's not easy, especially for people like them.

If the current laws of Blue Star were used as a benchmark, this table might not be enough to cover all their crimes, so at Duan Mingyuan's suggestion, they could only write down the key points.

Duan Mingyuan encouraged them that this was called "voluntary surrender" in legal terms and could be given a lighter sentence at the discretion of the court.

Although it was insignificant, it was the beginning of their transformation.

Before the police station became completely bustling, Duan Mingyuan went out and bought two bags of braised beef buns from a stall in front of the police station.

At this moment, Ellie was holding a half-eaten braised beef bun in his hand. He checked the contents on the registration form and felt that today was full of regrets.

He could neither guess the process nor the ending.

A star zone felon with a bounty of 7900 million Bei on his head by Universal Company was now sitting in the lobby on the first floor of the police station checking his registration form. Next to him was a gangster who was in a state of panic because he had knocked out someone's front tooth in a street fight.

Coyote Twelve was one step ahead of him, even when eating the braised beef buns and turning himself in.

After filling out the registration form, he took it to the counter.

There was a young girl behind the counter. She seemed to have worked overtime for a long time in the past few days. She had obvious dark circles under her eyes and yawned sleepily. On the table was a cup of hot coffee she had just bought.

Coyote Twelve's mechanical body left her stunned for a long while, and the amount of text on the form handed over made her scalp tingle.

She stared at Coyote Twelve's face, which had not been "polluted" by the machine, and asked, "Your belongings were stolen at the comic convention? How much was the stolen amount? Was it more than 6000?"

“No one can steal my belongings.”

Coyote Twelve lit up another cigar in front of the young police officer.

"Then what are you doing?"

“Isn’t it clearly written here?”

"I'm asking you this because it's so unclear... Can you give me a brief summary?"

"Intentional injury, assault, first-degree murder, assisting in opening a casino..."

"Just wait a moment."

The young police officer stretched out his left hand and gestured to pause, "Did you kill anyone?"

It was hard for her to imagine that this person, who looked like he was going to a comic convention, could say something so outrageous. She emphasized, "Let me make it clear in advance that if this is a prank, we will also hold you accountable."

Coyote Twelve looked calm and said, "Kill him."

"How many people were killed?"

"I didn't count. I forgot."
