[Zongmeiying] Wait, am I going to die?

The moment Xiao entered the house, she felt an uncomfortable feeling, and soon, she knew what it was.

Instinctively as an agent, she felt the sight.

But there was nothing where the line of sight came from.

Elrond smiled kindly, but Shaw could smell something about him—as did the other blond man who was sitting on the sofa with little Lilia.

They are all men who have been on the battlefield.

Xiao's nerves became a little tense, and at the same time he was a little eager to try.

"The sky may change in the evening." Elrond led the man to the sofa, and said gently, "Whether your goal is us or Lilia, this is a good choice."

"Who are you?" Xiao couldn't help ignoring Finch's "Don't act rashly, Ms. Xiao" in the earphones, her intuition made her ask, and her intuition also told her that she could get the answer.

—but her intuition didn't tell her that it was an 11-year-old girl who answered her.

"Not human beings. Uncle Elrond and Uncle Thranduil are elves." Lilia, who was lying on the sofa, turned over and looked at Xiao with innocent eyes, but what she said made Xiao look at the two The elf's eyes became strange.

...These two men obviously look quite normal.

"Ms. Xiao! Someone sneaked into Brian's house!"

Along with the voice in the earphones, there was the sound of the door being opened.At some point, the figure of the blond man was no longer on the sofa, and disappeared from her vision the moment Xiao blinked again—and, did she seem to see...a white deer just now?

Both Thranduil and Elrond's ears have heard the sound coming from Shaw's earphones—I believe Thranduil heard it more clearly, after all, the sentinel's hearing even heard the noise next door and Take action for the first time.

At this moment, they can already be sure that the other party is the group of father that Miss Machine said.

"Thranduil has passed, and the Brians will be fine."

Elrond stopped Xiao from leaving. For some reason, the words of this black-haired man sounded more intimidating than anyone else, and the weight in the words made Xiao have to obey.

After doing all this, Elrond, who was still in the house, frowned slightly, and let Lilia lean in his arms.

The 11-year-old girl also seemed to feel the heavy atmosphere. She held Elrond tightly, her body trembling.

"Lilia, what's the matter?" Elrond lowered his head, looked at the young girl, and asked as gently as possible.

"Yes, something terrible is coming." Lilia's eyes flashed with white light, and she murmured to herself in a low voice and fear.

Elrond suddenly turned his gaze out of the window, where a black figure in a windbreaker stood there with a gentlemanly smile on his face.

"Although it's not time yet, 'Good Night', the two guests and my dear sacrifice."

※※※

On the other side, Riise finally learned the time and place of the sacrifice from Kadoma, and immediately contacted the boss: "Finch, the time for the sacrifice of the Guruli Cult is tonight!"

"I know, Mr. Reaser, Ms. Xiao's contact has been cut off." Finch's voice was a bit hurried. He only heard a strange voice speak, and he could no longer hear Xiao's voice in the headset. .

And the last voice he heard made him feel chills all over his body - he had never heard such a sick and terrifying voice, and just uttering words made people feel horrified.

"Don't worry, Finch, I already know the location of the sacrificial offering, I'll rush there right away."

Time was running short, so Riise simply "borrowed" a car on the side of the road. When he sat in the driver's seat, he heard Finch's unsteady, low, rapid breathing through the headset, and knew that his boss had entered into "fidgeting". In a worried state, he couldn't help soothing the other party's emotions in a low voice.

After Harold Finch was silent for a long time, he suddenly said to John Reaser: "Lilia said those two strangers were elves, what do you think, Mr. Reaser?"

John Reaser recalled a little about his surveillance experience.

It's not that he's conceited, it's really not like an ordinary person to be able to detect himself at such a long distance without any other means.

and--

"Finch, from my previous work experience, not knowing doesn't mean it doesn't exist."

"...Maybe you're right, I'm seeing things on my surveillance electronics that can't be explained by science."

Who will tell him why he saw a white lion and a white deer when he borrowed the electronic eyes around him?

—Miss Machine said that she really didn't do anything.

"Anyway, it's good that those two aren't on our side, Mr. Reaser."

"I'd say, Finch, you should have a little faith in your own eyes."

Even in this tense situation, John Reaser is in the mood to play with his humor.

"I will, Mr. Reaser." As always, his boss did not respond.

When Thranduil rushed to Bryan's house, he knew it was a trap—no, he knew the moment he heard it that the other party wanted to separate him from Elrond.

But he had to come.

The lives of the old Brian and his wife are as important as Lilia, even if their lives are like a candle in the wind, there is only one day left.

——He was really completely influenced by Elrond.

The Elf King relentlessly beat up a group of fanatical believers who didn't make any sense and didn't understand what fear was. After confirming that the Brians were safe again, he turned and left.

However, this time, the spirit king's aura has completely changed.

Since absorbing part of the power of the Code of Death, the madness of hell that was buried under the spiritual realm by Thranduil has long been ready to move, because Elrond has always been by his side as an anchor to stabilize his spirit, so Thranduil Dill still maintained a calm appearance.

But now, he could not feel Elrond.

"Alpha, where is he?" Thranduil looked at the white lion, the soul guide of Elrond.

—Someone cut off his breath.

Alpha shook his head.

——that is the same breath with us, with the Codex.

"Hi, Mr. Thranduil, I think you need a little help?"

A car happened to be parked beside the Elf King, and the young and beautiful woman in the car had a hazy smile on her face.

"She asked me to show you a place," Root said, "so let's stop wasting time here?"

Thranduil looked behind Gen, the red-haired lady machine waved at him, and then disappeared.

He got into the car without hesitation.

"Then, please sit down, I'm afraid we have to violate some traffic rules." Gen immediately stepped on the accelerator, and the small car roared away.

On the other hand, Riise felt that the road around him was a bit strange.

"Finch, is the navigation malfunctioning?"

"There's something strange... zizz... the magnetic field is interfering... zzz... Lise first... zzz...be careful..."

As time went on, Finch's words became harder to hear. Reese frowned. He had already memorized the map in his heart, so he simply turned off the navigation and drove by himself, looking for the direction by intuition.

"It was a rare experience."

Riise slams on the brakes!

He saw a little girl in front of him, but when he looked carefully, there was nothing.

"John Reaser."

A childish voice sounded beside him.

The little child sat in his passenger seat, with red hair and gray eyes, but his face was very similar to someone Riise knew well, except that it was a girl's face.

"...Are you my hallucination?" Reese murmured.

If it was a dream, he didn't understand why he dreamed of a little girl with the red hair of Grace, the fiancée that Finch had to separate from her, and a little girl who looked very similar to Finch.

—he ignored those gray pupils that were exactly like his own.

The red-haired lady smiled slightly, her expression was no different from that of a human being.

"This place has become a spiritual field, you can't get out like this."

——This kind of thing shouldn't exist in her world.

The little child looked ahead, even though he looked young but was actually young, but he already had the aura of the core of the world.

"Please follow my directions, Mr. Reaser."

—Damn it, she said Mr. Reaser's tone was exactly like Finch's!

The former CIA agent thought he was having a dream, but the ghostly wall-like road and the fog ahead turned out to be an absurd nightmare. If a little girl like Finch came Getting directions doesn't seem to be bad either.

John Reaser decided to trust his intuition, he turned the steering wheel vigorously, and followed the little girl's guidance.

Not far away was the flames, and dozens of people in black robes walked through the dark streets with torches in their hands.

"Fools." The girl's voice was as soft as bubbles, but with a trace of natural compassion, she glanced at the driver, "Don't try to get in that team—they are all chosen by the dead."

"So many people have died..."

Riise frowned at the ominous meaning in those words.

"I can't just watch." That's dozens of lives.

"You can only watch here." The girl's tone couldn't help but argue, "Because you are completely different from them—wait quietly for them to pass by."

"Who are you?" Riise looked at the child in the co-pilot seat, she sat there lightly, as if she existed or didn't exist, but Riise could feel the awe rising from the bottom of her heart.

"I envy you very much." The girl looked at the long queue, as if she was sure that they would be in time for the final sacrifice, so she was not in a hurry.

"I envy you, John Reaser." The girl repeated beside him, with a sigh in her voice, "You can be his eyes and ears, his siblings, and walk side by side with him, just because you are human .”

"It's not just that Finch trusts me because I'm human. And, I don't even know where he lives... a machine."
