Chapter 43 Three-Headed Dog of Hell

With the door of the room as the dividing line, the two extraordinary people looked at each other.

This was actually not the first time Christine met Frank Clinton in person.

The first time was two years ago when she had just joined the New York Police Department and was assisting the Narcotics Enforcement Task Force.

At that time, in her impression, Officer Frank's working style was very similar to Sheriff George's. Both were very serious and meticulous in handling cases and would not tolerate any sand in their eyes.

This impression continues to this day, so much so that Christine feels great sympathy for the upstanding police officer's experience.

But now, after seeing Frank's deep and dark eyes that seemed to want to destroy everything, the "enthusiasm" in Christine's heart quickly disappeared, and was replaced by vigilance and solemnity.

"call"

She held the alloy heavy sword tightly in both hands, ready for battle, but still made her last effort and said sincerely:

"Officer Frank, I understand your desire to punish the murderer, but you cannot let hatred and anger blind you. Most ordinary people are innocent. This is not a suitable place for you to set fire."

"Then who do you think is not innocent? Is it the transgender person in the room who wants to dig up the bones of my wife and daughter, or you, or him?!"

Frank had a blank expression on his face, his eyes dancing with black flames as he scanned the three people in the room one by one.

Even Alia, who would usually jump out and shout that this was sexism when she heard someone say they were transgender, didn't dare to breathe at this moment, her face turned pale, and she finally realized what a stupid thing she had done.

Nathan even shrank his head, wishing Frank couldn't see him.

He is just an ordinary agent in the investigation team. How can he have the qualifications to compete with the Ghost Rider on the spot?

It’s better to leave this kind of limelight-seeking work to Christine.

He and the troublemaker beside him retreated quietly to the window of the room, his footsteps so light that they were almost inaudible, for fear of attracting the other party's attention.

boom! !

Frank didn't waste any more words and raised his hand to release a black flame.

The flames were like a roaring black dragon, instantly tearing through the air and rushing towards the two people by the window with scorching heat.

"stop."

Christine frowned and stepped forward, raising the heavy sword in her hand to block. A faint ochre energy halo lit up on the thick sword, like an indestructible barrier, helping her block the endless black flames.

The flames collided with the energy barrier, making a sharp hissing sound, and the air was filled with a burnt smell.

"."

When Frank saw this, a flame flickered in his dark eyes.

This was the first time he had met an official esper, and he was a semi-acquaintance at that.

But it doesn't matter, anyone who stands in his way will die.

boom! !

The next second, raging black flames burst out from Frank's body like a volcanic eruption, instantly filling the entire room.

Christine kept raising her sword to block, the ochre light on the sword became brighter, and she plowed the ground with her feet, retreating three meters before stopping.

She said to her companion behind her in a slightly hurried tone: "Nathan, take this guy away first and jump out of the window."

"I've been wanting to jump for a while, but this guy just won't let me."

Nathan rolled his eyes helplessly.

Alia also had her own explanation for this, saying confidently, "This is the seventh floor. If you ask me to jump down, isn't that the same as asking me to die?"

".Forget it, then you stay here."

He couldn't explain it in a few words, and Nathan didn't bother to care about this guy who was seeking death. He jumped out of the window on the seventh floor behind him very decisively.

"This"

Alia's eyes widened when she saw this. She didn't expect that there would be people who were not afraid of falling to death.

Then she saw an even more shocking scene.

When he was about to approach the ground, a yellowish-brown light flashed on the brown-haired detective's body, and his body, which was falling suddenly, became light in an instant, like a fallen leaf, and landed on the ground unharmed.

"So that's it."

Looking back at Christine, who was also flashing a khaki light, Alia immediately understood and quickly climbed up the window and tried to jump out.

But it was too late.

Seeing that the official extraordinary person in front of him was indeed powerful, Frank changed his strategy.

Instead of releasing flames from the front, he took a heavy step forward, releasing a terrifying circular shockwave composed of black flames. Christine was caught off guard and was thrown out, hitting the wall.

And Alia was in a miserable state after losing Christine's protection.

She often went for tanning and enjoyed the most comprehensive "sunbath". Her skin all over her body turned black in an instant, and she let out extremely sharp screams in the sea of ​​fire.

"I'll tell you, will you dance with me?"

Nathan, who had already safely reached downstairs, shook his head helplessly and took out his walkie-talkie to call for support from the investigation team.

"Tell Christine to hold on, support will be here soon."

It was one thing to allow Frank to punish the murderers of his daughter, but it was another to stop him from setting fire in a busy city.

George Gently is procedurally just but not rigid.

I had already planned how to stop Frank from committing a bigger crime if the talks with him failed.

steaming! !
At George Gently's signal, the drone teams that had been in place and hovering in the air immediately took action. Under the control of the investigation team members, they dived down and fired dozens of micro-missiles loaded with liquid nitrogen warheads at Frank in the room.

boom! boom! !

In an instant, the temperature in the room, which had been rising rapidly just now, dropped suddenly.

The nitrogen released by a large amount of liquid nitrogen after absorbing the surrounding heat and vaporizing also has the effect of isolating oxygen.

It can be said that cooling and fire extinguishing can be achieved in one step.

Everyone says the fire giant Surtur is good after using it.

"Cough cough."

In a white room that was rapidly cooling, Christine got up from the ground and looked warily at the figure in front of her that was enveloped by rapidly vaporizing liquid nitrogen.

The special perspective brought by her manipulation of gravity was not affected by her field of vision. She could clearly see that the black flames dancing on the other person's body did not go out, but instead became darker in color.

And Frank's low and hoarse voice came from the thick fog.

"Christine, please go. I don't want to kill you because you came to my wife's grave to give her flowers before."

"How did you know?"

"I went to the church before coming here," Frank's voice deepened. "Maybe they don't like the way I look, but I can't turn back."

Hearing this, Christine thought that there might be a chance for a turnaround, so she gestured to the drones that were locking onto Frank to stop temporarily.

She said sincerely, "Officer Frank, I've always known you're an honest man. Now that you haven't made any serious mistakes, why don't you stop? I believe everyone will accept you again."

"No, you don't understand."

Frank's voice was filled with exhaustion. "The power bestowed by the devil ultimately comes at a price, and now is the time for me to pay that price."

Just as Frank finished saying this, the temperature in the room, which had just been cooling down rapidly, soared again.

And this time, it was felt by everyone within a radius of several kilometers.

boom! ! !
The evil fire in Frank's body that had long been uncontrollable shot up into the sky, transforming into a giant ring-dog phantom surrounded by black flames. The terrifying body was nearly thirty meters tall, and the scorching heat it emitted made people feel as if they were in hell.

"Oh my god, that's the three-headed dog of hell!!"

Some people think so.

But no matter what, the strange phenomenon that suddenly appeared above Wall Street still attracted the attention of too many people.

After all, this is Wall Street, the world's financial center.

After receiving the notification from the investigation team, many people working and living nearby have already begun to be evacuated.

But given the exaggerated population density of Wall Street, it would take more than a short time to evacuate so many people.

Those who were unable to leave for the time being felt the temperature around them rising rapidly at a speed perceptible to the naked eye. They looked up with a slightly dull expression. The huge ring-shaped dog shadow formed by black flames in the sky seemed to be looking up, absorbing something from them.

As something was sucked away, its size became larger and larger, and finally it gradually transformed from an illusion into a solid entity.

Frank's body slowly rose to the center of its huge body, at the position of the heart, and seemed to have fallen asleep.

"This"

Nathan, who had cleverly moved away from the building, looked up at the other person's exaggerated size, which made the nearby apartment seem inexplicably smaller. He held the intercom in his hand and swallowed his saliva.
"Boss, you have so many backup plans, do you have any to deal with this?"

"What do you think?"

On the other end of the intercom, George Gently's voice was filled with deep helplessness as he said to his men beside him:
"Send all our drones and helicopters. Also, get me a few theologians and folklore experts."
