New Gods of North America.

Chapter 394 Explosion
The detective agency's courtyard was noisy until after midnight.

The people in the exorcism department are relatively self-disciplined. Today is a day of relaxation. According to the church's requirements, they drink but don't get drunk.

Seeing that the time was almost up, David Mills said hello to Wayne and seemed to be preparing to say goodbye to his people:

"Is there anything going on here tonight? If not, we'll go back first. Several of us have to be on duty tomorrow morning."

噫，
You figured it out.

David Mills was not being mysterious. "The birds in your detective agency didn't sing tonight. Only a pigeon flew back earlier. Then several people quietly left the scene. The owl went in and out three times, and someone was secretly passing messages. Even the last two fights seemed to be just killing time."

Yes, he is indeed quite capable, as expected of someone from the special forces.
It's just that the path you're taking is a little off. Let alone becoming a priest, I think it's more reliable for you to be a magician than a lawyer.

Wayne then took David Mills into the kitchen. On the long table where the detectives usually ate, there was a map of the area surrounding the detective agency, with some uncooked beans on top.
Without Wayne's introduction, David Mills looked down and read:
"Seventeen people, divided into three groups. One group is responsible for observing from a distance... Was it sent by the person who duelled with you at Cohen Pharmaceuticals?"

“I don’t know, but I think it should be.”

Wayne made up for it a little, "Our detective agency can actually handle this number of people. But since the other party has already come here, they probably found that it is very lively here and dare not take action for the time being, so I thought I would wait them out for a while."

"As long as you can handle it."

David Mills looked at the map and nodded. "Then our people will leave first? As far as I remember, the river bay area nearby is not private land. If the other party does not launch an attack, it seems that you have no reason to take the initiative to attack."

You can actually bring someone to help us...

Forget it. I won’t bother with you rookie lawyers who just changed careers halfway.

After all, the personnel in the exorcism department belong to the church, and in a sense, they are also "public property". Even if David Mills privately assigns them for his own benefit, it may be considered a violation.
Wayne gave David Mills a foreshadowing, suggesting that after the detective agency had dealt with the other party, it would send someone to report the case to the local exorcism department, so that they would not have to go too fast on the way, so as to avoid having to "go back."

After explaining the situation, the people from the exorcism department prepared to leave.
However, three guys who had been teased for half the night started to yell after hearing the news, "The people from Cohen Pharmaceuticals? Where is the bastard who caused us to lose money?"

A few cents is a small matter, but sometimes face may be worth more than that, right?
David Mills had enough prestige among them, and the shouting guys soon shut up, and then the carriages drove out of the courtyard one after another.

……

The rule of the world is that the deeper the water, the bigger the fish.

Since the other side is divided into three groups, one of the groups seems to have the smallest number of people and is the farthest away, which feels like the place where the "big fish" is.

David Mills was still in the carriage, talking to Wayne and a colleague who were "sending him off" about the self-discipline of public officials in law enforcement.

In the relatively quiet night, there was suddenly an explosion loud enough to scare birds away.

"Bam—"

Then there was a series of gunshots, "bang bang bang bang".

I didn't expect that after the peregrine falcons and owls have been causing trouble here for so many days, there are still so many birds in the nearby woods...

David Mills turned his head in shock, and then saw Wayne's innocent expression.

The guy next to him was still making a fuss, "Boss, it seems like a fight has started over there, should we go stop the crime?" Wayne was not going to do anything too extreme. While preparing to get out of the car, he tried to comfort David Mills:

"You don't have to participate in the battle. I'll go check the situation first to see if the other party accidentally detonated the explosives."

Lina, Chameleon and Liam went over to get the explosives.

According to the prior agreement, if Lina and her friends could secretly find the transportation for "Big Fish", they would send a pigeon back to report the situation.
If that doesn't work, just deal with the opponent's carriage or horses first and make some noise.

Anyway, this is a desolate place.
You're here now, right?
There were gunshots and explosions in the distance, and the area around the detective agency soon became bustling.
A flash of white hair appeared on the roof of the big barn. It was probably Inissa who had "woke up" early.

Wayne's temporary plan was simple. A small group of troops would go to see if there was a "big fish" a little further away, while the main group would stay at home.
If you can catch a big fish first, you can go back to provide support. Otherwise, you can "encircle" the nearby ones first.

These guys don't know how to learn from each other. The same routine was used by the group that came yesterday, and the ones that came tonight didn't learn from the lesson.

Oh, it seems that I didn't let the person escape last night.
That's fine.

Lina had been in charge of tracking in Richmond for a few days before, so she naturally knew what Cohen Pharmaceuticals' core figures in Virginia looked like.
Since she chose to take action, it means that there must be a fish on the hook, and it’s always a good idea to deal with it first.

As for the cathedral,
The office of Cohen Pharmaceuticals is not located in Georgeburg. Who would believe that someone with so many people came here late at night and said they were just passing by?
Wayne drove in the direction of the "big fish" with a simple vision.
It was a little troublesome to run through the woods, but you wouldn't hit any trees.

When they were about 300 yards away from the explosion, Wayne's spiritual intuition suddenly gave him a warning.
Then I saw a firework rising into the sky in the night, and then exploded with a bright red brilliance.

The warnings from spiritual intuition were not as strong as those from the previous advent of the "wise sage", but they did not fade away either.

Wayne's intuition told him that he was gradually approaching "danger"...

Well……

How to describe it?
When Wayne first came through and had his first gunfight, he didn't have the so-called "spiritual intuition" at that time.
But this was probably how Wayne felt when he picked up the gun and shot at those gang members.

It seems like it would be a bit exciting.

Wayne felt the adrenaline in his body being secreted, and his running speed also increased a lot.

Wait until Wayne emerges from the last tree that blocks his view.
I saw Lina dragging someone back...

"No, why did you run away?" Wayne was a little surprised.

"That guy is out of control and is now eating even his own companions. It looks like we won't be able to get rid of him in a short time. Should we deal with the guys who attacked our home first?"

"can."

David Mills' voice sounded behind Wayne, and he sighed as he panted, "Dealing with out-of-control fallen people is the job of our exorcism department."

Another voice from further away answered, "Boss, you are right!"
