Even the incomparably sharp blade of the sword did not reflect the slightest bit of cold light, as if it belonged entirely to the darkness!
Kevin didn't dare to get that close this time, and carefully, across the floor, touched it.
That damn cop actually had a gun, and kevin didn't have much of a chance of winning if he didn't resort to a sneak attack.
He wasn't a hunter, so apart from his agility, which was five points higher than an ordinary person's, he was left with his spirit, which had basically no effect on combat, which was six points higher than an ordinary person's.
Modernized heat weapons have a crushing advantage until the Contractor exceeds fifty points in each attribute!
Seventh floor, not a hard climb, the bright light kevin was chasing suddenly disappeared at some point, and he knew that it was the policewoman who had reached the top floor.
Kevin accelerated his pace, and like a ghost, he "floated" up the stairs without a sound.
A faint firelight kept pulsing, flickering on and off, as if it would be blown out at any moment by the cold wind of the rooftop without a parapet!
Although it brought negligible light, it was almost as bright as the sun in kevin's eyes, reflecting everything around him as if bathed in golden sunlight!
It was a white candle that was about to burn out, and two syringes with blood-stained needles were casually discarded on the ground, one of which had been stepped on!
A light rain as thin as a cow's hair fell into the candlelight, not enough to quench it, but making it beat more violently, as if wildly!
Two youths with thin bodies and a trance-like demeanor lazily lay on the icy ground, letting the cold wind blow and the icy rain hammer them.
Other than that, the rooftop was empty, and the view was unobstructed at a glance!
"No good!"
The dim candlelight reflected the blurry outline of kevin, and it was only a probe before kevin realized something was wrong!
The policewoman with the electric light was not actually on the rooftop!
"Don't move!"
kevin snapped to attention, and just as he tried to make a move, a bright beam of light was suddenly projected onto his face!
kevin only felt a burst of white blinding, his eyes can adapt to the darkness, but accordingly, for the resistance of the bright light, it is much lower!
Without moving, yet incredibly quickly, the two short swords were sheathed, and kevin feigned difficulty in stopping his hands in front of his eyes so that his eyes avoided the direct light.
Through this bright light, kevin vaguely saw a black silhouette, standing upright, arms crossed over his chest, one hand down holding a flashlight, one hand holding a gun, aiming at kevin's torso in the direction of the column of light!
"kevin, I can't believe it's you!"
A warm voice rang out, but it was devoid of the previous concern, and in its tone, it carried a penetrating coldness!
"It's me."
Through his fingers, kevin noticed that the policewoman held her gun with a skill and composure that didn't waver in the slightest, comparable to the medics in Matthew's mercenary squad!
kevin's gaze instantly sank, this female police officer, I'm afraid that it is not those rice buckets in the police station can be compared to, in the absence of firearms, if one wants to resist, the possibility of being shot on the spot, more than eighty percent!
Eyes constantly sweeping around, kevin's mind instantly turned over a thousand ideas, several options because the danger was too great, they were all rejected by him one by one.
"Put your hands in the air and back up! Back up slowly!"
The policewoman let out a chortle and slowly walked up.
kevin complied, slowly backed up, and when he was about to step onto the rooftop, a brilliant light suddenly swept through his eyes!
(Maybe use this opportunity to get out of her sight instantly ...)
Just as kevin's legs were slightly curled, ready to burst out his full speed the moment he entered the rooftop, the gun-wielding policewoman, as if she had gained insight into her mind, immediately drank, "Don't you play any tricks! Once you make any other move, I will shoot immediately!"
kevin froze slightly, and just then the policewoman had taken a few steps across the room, expanding her view to the rooftop!
At this point, even if kevin's speed was twice as fast, he would not be able to completely get out of the policewoman's line of sight within two seconds, and the previous opportunity to instantly escape was completely lost because of that momentary lull in his progress!
(Not decisive enough!)
KEVIN reflected on himself and instantly found out where the reason was, if he hadn't hesitated in the slightest just now, he might have taken one of the guys on the rooftop as a hostage at this point.
Sweeping the empty rooftop, kevin sadly realized that he didn't have any cover to hide in, and the terrain was extremely unfavorable to him!
(There must be a way! There must be a way!)
kevin thought anxiously, his feet constantly backing up.
If she catches her, kevin will be greeted with the harshest of punishments, mowing down and killing a dozen law enforcement officers, a crime for which, in all likelihood, he'll take a bullet!
And until the court issues a judgment, there will also be twenty-four hour, round-the-clock close surveillance!
And the most basic requirement for teleporting back to the Abyss is that you can't be exposed to the sight of non-Contractors!
It can be said that if kevin is caught by this policewoman, he will face a nine-death situation!
There might be a glimmer of life, but, almost zero!
The way back, it's completely closed!
"Stop! Put your hands up and turn around slowly ..."
A hint of murderous intent swept through kevin's eyes, and he turned his fierce gaze, toward the two drug-addicted youths not far from his feet!
This kind of look seemed to be the ruthlessness that outlaws exuded when they were on the verge of death, dragging a few people along with them even in death!
"Don't move! Back up! Get back!"
Under the bright light of the flashlight, kevin's face, every subtle expression, was clearly presented in Fan Rong's eyes!
Upon realizing that kevin seemed to be making moves to harm the lives and health of other people, he hastily spoke out to stop him, taking three steps forward in a row, bringing the muzzle of the gun that emitted an icy aura of death a few points further closer to kevin!
"Fine fine! I'll back up! I'll back off! Don't you shoot! Don't shoot!"
Kevin seemed startled by Fan Rong's move and hurriedly threw his hands up in the air and flew back!
"Don't run!"
Fan Rong was instinctively startled, but the way kevin backed away was not an out of the ordinary move, causing her to subconsciously block out the act of shooting!
Not only that, because of kevin's "timid" and exaggerated backwardness, Fan Yung had to speed up his pace, trying to bring kevin under control.
"You ... stay away!"
KEVIN seemed to have been frightened by the pistol, and as soon as he saw Fan Rong coming forward, not only did he not stop, but he retreated even faster!
The rooftop's width of less than a hundred meters was rapidly diminishing as kevin darted backward!
"Stop retreating! Danger!"
Fan Rong was holding a flashlight as she was able to perceive the width of the rooftop more clearly, and seeing that kevin was about to approach the edge of the rooftop, she hurriedly spoke out to stop him!
But Kevin didn't seem to hear him, and was still backing up quickly, his face illuminated by the bright light showing a look of horror, as if Fan Rong was some kind of flooding beast that made him feel fearful!
"Stand still! Or I'll shoot!"
Seeing that drinking doesn't work and kevin is about to lose his footing and fall down the stairs if he takes one more step back, Fan Yung immediately stops and threatens to shoot!
It worked, and as soon as kevin heard it, it was as if he had been struck by a fixation spell, and his figure stopped moving all of a sudden, as if it had been premeditated, making Fan Rong feel a wave of dissonance!
It seemed that the only way she would feel normal was if kevin fell.
"Walk over slowly and calmly! Slowly, come over here ..."
Although the man in front of him was a murderous butcher, his duty as a police officer made it imperative for Fan Yung to make sure that no one could jeopardize his personal safety until the court issued its verdict!
(Spells out.)
The panic on kevin's face instantly disappeared and was replaced by a wry smile!
KEVIN knew that the policewoman in front of him was also mentally tense enough that probably just a little excitement would be enough to make her pistol burst into flames!
So kevin takes a step backward as slowly as possible ...
One step, falling short!
By now, kevin was at the very edge of the rooftop, one step, enough to make him lose his footing and fall down the stairs!
"Hey!"
Kevin's body steeply leaned back, and Fan Rong clearly saw that his step, landed directly in the air!
The unbalanced body instantly fell backwards, and in the blink of an eye, kevin was about to fall from a height of over twenty meters!
