Angel Manny looked into Constantine's eyes and said in a calm tone: "I hope you can ask me for help next time you encounter trouble, instead of borrowing the devil's power directly."
As soon as he finished speaking, Manny disappeared in front of him.
The frozen things around him returned to normal, and Zed sat next to him and asked when they would go to Las Vegas.
"We'll go there the day after tomorrow. I have to prepare something for this trip."
Constantine took another look at the bill on the keyboard. The numbers written on it were more terrifying than any hell creature he had ever seen.
The next day.
Barbara brought a newspaper to Officer Zhang's office. She put the thing in her hand on the table and said, "Mr. Zhang, they gave you the biggest space."
The man took the newspaper and looked at it. On the first page, there was a large picture of him standing on the podium speaking.
It occupies two-thirds of the entire page of the newspaper, and the remaining one-third is still talking about Officer Zhang working hard on patrol for everyone's safety.
"You will also have the opportunity to be on the first page of Gotham Daily. Come on, ma'am."
Scud Dave, a reporter in a small town, can still do his job well. He knows that the most important thing as a reporter is to report the truth, not to help some people smear the police officers who take care of them.
Zhang San can’t even remember the name of the former reporter in town after so many years. That guy deserved to be beaten for not telling the truth.
He still remembers the time when that man peed all over his pants, just because he heard that he might be cut into pieces and thrown into the river to feed the fish.
Anyway, Zhang San has never seen him in the town of Evergreen since that day. He may have moved to another city for development.
After touching his pocket, he took out a small thumb-sized bottle and handed it to Barbara and said, "It contains holy water. Just in case you encounter a supernatural incident or something, just sprinkle it on yourself."
"Shouldn't you sprinkle it on them?"
Barbara accepted the bottle. She really needed this thing to protect herself after the last demonic incident.
"This thing is the same to the devil as we feel about shit. If you sprinkle it on your body, the devil will definitely stay away from you."
"You don't have to explain it like this." Some people feel that they are disgusted, really!
Shrugging, the ace police officer said that only in this way could she understand the effect of holy water on demons in the most straightforward and clear way.
The police car carrying the two people arrived outside the prison. The family members were no longer there. It seemed that they still understood that they would get nothing even if they continued.
Ten minutes later, the police patrol car arrived at the community park where the homeless man was.
Not long after Toby's hostage-taking incident, there were not only many tents but also several more tents in the area blocked by the plant wall.
They should have been called here from other parts of the town and gathered together for easier management.
Moreover, the only place in the town that still distributes free food is the church next to the park. When we met, we said that Father Anthony from Amigo would deliver some regularly from Monday to Wednesday.
Today happened to be the day when the church distributed food. Officer Zhang, wearing sunglasses, drove his car to the street where there was a long queue.
Not all of these people who receive free food are homeless, some of them queue up to get food because of the word "free".
The ace police officer looked at the last person and then drove away without noticing any fugitive among them.
The chance of getting a vacation here is about 30%. Some fugitives will pretend to be vagrants and escape to live in remote towns.
It's a pity, the new ones have no problem with their identities.
"careful!"
When the police car drove to an intersection, Barbara, who was sitting in the passenger seat, suddenly shouted and lowered her head.
Officer Zhang next to her immediately pulled out his pistol and pulled the trigger directly at the middle-aged man pointing the gun at the police car on the street.
Snap, snap, snap, snap!
After a series of gunshots, Officer Zhang, who had changed the magazine, opened the car door and stood outside and shouted to the suspect who had his face on the ground: "Let me see your hands!"
"Let me see your hands!" Barbara, who raised her gun, also shouted, although the other person was already a dead person in her eyes.
The sunglasses gave Officer Zhang the identity information of the suspect. There was only one possibility for the other party to point a gun at the police car on the street without any criminal record.
An old acquaintance commits suicide under the pretense of police it’s happening again!
Those who commit suicide cannot go to heaven. Many people who are desperate emotionally or under financial pressure will choose to borrow police guns to complete their 'suicide'.
They usually carry out surprise attacks with gun-like objects or toy guns in their hands, and police officers have to shoot when faced with suspected firearm-like objects that may cause harm to themselves.
When the gun is fired, no one survives.
Among them, there are some suicides who take real things and plan to take a few people with them. It is because of the existence of such people that police officers will seriously deal with people who commit suicide by borrowing fake goods or not.
The ambulance arrived, and several emergency personnel who got out of the car with a bunch of things checked briefly and sent a message to Officer Zhang that the suspect could not be saved.
As the shot body was taken away, Barbara, who returned to the police car, turned around and said, "How many times have you seen this?"
"A lot. You should have seen a lot in Gotham, right?"
Zhang San has been very calm from the beginning to now. There are really too many such things.
"In fact, there are very few people in Gotham who commit suicide by asking police officers... They just find a piece of rope or cut their wrists and take medicine."
Gotham and other places are like two different worlds, and Barbara has only encountered it once in all her years of living in Sin City.
It was because she had seen so little that she asked her partner if he had seen too much, so she became so calm.
"Think about it. People who can live in Gotham don't care about whether they can go to heaven if they commit suicide. But why do I feel that most of the suicides you mentioned did not commit suicide?"
"Although the bureau's investigation of cases is very slow, the ones I've seen are all suicides."
"Did you investigate it yourself? Or did you read the investigation results of your colleagues?"
It depends on the place when you say someone committed suicide. If it's Gotham, it's better to say they were murdered.
Who knows if the person who died was committed suicide...
Not only those government agents are very skilled in this job, but also gang members who grew up in Gotham.
Why would he know?
Because Zhang San saw it with his own eyes when he went to Gotham to help. Gang members would also kill others by getting drunk and putting their heads in the toilet.
Coupled with the bunch of famous police officers and donut officers in the Gotham Police Department, it will be difficult for them to figure out the truth about the death.
