Ke-style law enforcement officers

Chapter 26 Which one is from the Valrocan family?

From a near-desperate situation to being the only one left standing in the entire arena, the plot twist took less than two minutes.

Emma was stunned. Tears still clung to her face as she knelt on the ground, completely bewildered and unable to recover. She continued to sob, cough, and tremble involuntarily.

Is this really the Milo she knows?
Is this still the same Milo she remembers who was always idling and only knew how to drink?

Emma was stunned.

She didn't come to her senses until Milo came closer, knelt down, took the dagger from her hand, and carefully wiped away the tears on her face.

"Shh, it's alright, it's alright."

She saw that the skin on the back of Milo's hands and the knuckles of his fingers was cracked. When Milo's hot hands touched her face, a long-suppressed sense of grievance surged up instantly, and tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.

"Let me see if they hurt you?" Milo gently lifted Emma's face to examine her closely.

Although Emma cried very hard, she still shook her head stubbornly.

She was mostly frightened. Milo arrived just in time, and she wasn't seriously harmed. But if Milo had arrived a few minutes later, Emma's fate might have been much worse.

"It's okay, it's okay."

Milo held Emma close, gently patting her trembling body and whispering comforting words in her ear.

To be honest, he was really serious about filming, and he was very careful to control the force in his hands.

He discovered something strange about his body; his strength seemed to have doubled compared to before, a change he had clearly felt during the fight.

After the fight ended and the adrenaline rush subsided, he felt a sharp pain in his fists; the force of his punches had injured both his hands.

So when he held Emma in his arms, he didn't dare to use too much force, for fear of crushing the poor girl.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here, it's okay."

With a head full of questions, Milo gently comforted Emma.

……

At this moment, Cillian, who had been knocked ten meters away earlier, finally stood up unsteadily.

He first stared in astonishment at his followers rolling on the ground, then, stimulated by the intense pain in his limbs, his expression quickly turned to fury.

Cillian began to scream hysterically, in a fit of impotent rage:
"You damned thing! You dare touch me?! Do you know who I am?! I'm from the Sherman family, you damned commoner! I'm going to kill you all!!!"

“Valrokan!! I’ll remember you!! You’re all dead!!…”

Snapped!
He suddenly got hit on the head with a stick while his messy blond hair was on.

Then he collapsed limply to the ground, and his shouting stopped immediately.

……

The person who appeared behind Ciri was Yan.

He was holding a charred piece of firewood, still smoldering, probably just pulled from the campfire altar. It looked incredibly hot. After knocking Cillian unconscious, he immediately threw the firewood on the ground, staring blankly at the man in formal attire and Milo rolling around on the floor.
"Sorry, sorry, I just heard a noise... What happened?"

At this moment, the other men from the hillside also rushed up one after another, each carrying a wooden stick, an axe, or even a stone they could grab at random. They were all menacing and ready to fight.

Kang, who was leading the group, was carrying two bottles of liquor. As soon as he rushed up, his eyes immediately turned red when he saw his daughter crying uncontrollably.

"Who! Who is it! I'll fucking kill you all!!"

Anyone with eyes could tell what was going on from the scene on the hillside: the crowd enthusiastically surrounded the men who had been knocked down by Milo and gave them a good beating.

People whose ancestral graves are buried on the same hill are basically from the same social class; none of them are wealthy. It is fate that they can gather together to celebrate the Day of the Dead. When the men of each family see such evil happening around them, it is inevitable that they will share a common hatred and indignation.

"Kill these bastards!"

"That's disgusting."

In an instant, fists, feet, sticks, and spittle were all thrown at the six men. Surrounded and ganged up on, they would probably spend the rest of the year in bed.

Yan, on the other hand, enjoys Ciri's power all to himself.

The blond-haired boy's face was covered with countless boot marks, as if he had been kicked unconscious and then kicked awake repeatedly.

……

While the beating raged on the other side, Milo, after confirming that Emma had stopped trembling, carefully picked her up:
"Come on, I'll take you home."

But Emma suddenly broke free from his embrace:

"wait for me a while."

She coughed softly, picked up the dagger from the ground, and slowly stood up.

Under Milo's slightly bewildered gaze, Emma walked straight toward Cillian.

Emma glanced at Yan and said, "Get out of my way."

Yan immediately stopped and took a few steps back, showing great understanding.

……

"What...what do you want to do?! Don't touch me!!...Help!!"

When Cillian saw Emma, ​​pale-faced and carrying a dagger, walking towards him, his previous arrogant and domineering demeanor vanished, replaced by panic and horror.

He wanted to escape, but his body, still recovering from old injuries, was completely unable to get up after the severe beating. His legs were powerless, and he could only crawl backward on the ground, his voice trembling.

"I'm warning you, stay away from me... Crazy woman, what do you think you're doing?! Don't come any closer!... Ah!!!"

……

Emma's knife was originally aimed straight at Cillian's stomach on the ground.

But because the kid was terrified, he lay on his back and frantically kicked and shuffled backward. In the instant the blade fell, the abdomen that should have been stabbed became his groin...

After a sharp wail.

All the men at the scene who were busy hitting and cursing felt a chill in their groin and looked at each other in bewilderment.

Yan, who was closest to the scene of "No Chicken, Only Talking," felt the deepest impact.

He had always known that the older sister of the Milo family was not someone to be trifled with. Although he enjoyed flirting with pretty girls, he had always harbored a deep-seated fear of Emma. After witnessing the bloody scene just now, he became even more certain of his impression of Emma.

I subconsciously took two steps back.

"...Didn't you want to rape me?"

Emma's tear tracks were still wet, but there was no trace of fear on her face; instead, there was only cold indifference.

She tossed the blood-stained dagger aside, turned, and left the unconscious Cillian.

This scene left Milo, who was standing next to him, stunned.

I thought to myself, "Hey, who was that crying girl I was hugging just two minutes ago?"

……

Faced with Milo's strange gaze, Emma simply replied, "Didn't you say you'd stab anyone who gets close to you?"

"Ah, it seems so." Milo scratched his head, speechless.

“Let me see your hand.” Emma suddenly held out her hand.

Milo glanced at the bloodstains on his fingers: "It's nothing..."

“Give it to me.” Emma looked at Milo firmly, still holding out her hand for him to hand it to her.

“Then you can see.” Milo felt that if he didn’t offer his hand, he might get stabbed too, so he obediently placed his hand in Emma’s.

"Does it hurt?"

"I'm not used to you being so gentle all of a sudden..."

"Does it hurt?!"

"It hurts..."

……

...

On the other side, Yan pointed to the few people on the ground who had been beaten to a pulp:
"What about the remaining five bastards?"

"Five?" Milo suddenly became alert. "That's not right, there are six people in total."

He turned to look at the ground.

There were actually only 5 dead dogs left, their skin torn and bleeding.

At this moment, one of them, who hadn't yet fainted, still had the strength to shout. He lay on the ground, pointing at the crowd and cursing:

"You...you dare to touch the Sherman family? You're all dead...If anything happens to our young master, none of you will escape!!"

"Shut up! You still have three long and two short things to do, but he only has short things left."

Yan didn't hold back and immediately gave the guy a boot print on the head.

……

However, the surname Sherman and the disappearance of the sixth person made everyone present uneasy.

"Sherman... could it be that noble manor in the north of the city...?"

“That bastard is a Sherman kid…this is bad.”

"My God... what have we done? If it really is the Sherman family... they have a private army."

"Should we...should we leave quickly?"

"Someone come quick and stop that kid's bleeding! What are you all standing around for?!"

"What blood are you referring to? It's because the child's life has been cut off!"

"We're doomed, we've messed with the Shermans. Old Kang, don't mention me in the news today. We can't afford to offend the Shermans."

……

In an instant, the crowd erupted into chaos.

It's not that these people are bullies who prey on the weak; it's just that the Sherman family has too much influence in Nanwei City.

In terms of seniority and history, the oldest buildings in Sherman Manor are even older than the city walls of Nanwei. Long before the end of the slave era of the old royal family, Sherman was already a wealthy family in the southern part of the empire. At that time, the private army owned by the Sherman family even exceeded the total number of troops stationed in Nanwei, which shows their strength.

Even today, the Sherman family still possesses formidable and terrifying power; the influence of this family can even extend to the aristocratic class of the Imperial Upper House.

They were simply not people these ordinary citizens could afford to offend.

For a moment, everyone felt insecure.

……

"What should we do? The main problem is that one of them escaped." Yan also began to realize the seriousness of the situation. He turned to look at Milo, his expression slightly grave.

"They must have run back to get reinforcements." Milo rubbed his temples.

No sooner had he finished speaking than a series of hoofbeats echoed from the foot of the hill!
Immediately afterwards, a large number of people appeared around the campfire altar, all carrying hunting rifles and longswords, resembling a private army from the last century.

The children and women who were originally sitting around the campfire were surrounded, and screams and cries filled the air.

……

"So fast?!"

The people on the hillside were greatly surprised.

They originally planned to quickly take their families and escape back to the city.

But no one expected the Sherman family to arrive so quickly...

Milo took a deep breath and turned to Yan: "If you trust me, go down the mountain from the other side and find a female law enforcement officer named Rebecca at the law enforcement office. Tell her that if she's even a step late, she'll have to collect my body. Leave this to me for now. Don't worry, I'll guarantee your family's safety."

"Okay! I believe you!"

Yan nodded and quickly left the crowd.

……

At this moment, someone from the group gathered at the campfire at the foot of the hill shouted up the hillside:
"Which one is from the Valrocan family!?"
