Chapter 7 Exercise and Cases
drink! drink!
At 11 o'clock at night, heavy breathing accompanied by dull banging sounds echoed in the gym dedicated to the garrison.
Normally, the garrison should be very quiet at this time, because the police only need to work until 10 pm to end the day's work unless there are special circumstances. After all, it is November 15th, which can be regarded as winter, except for Except for the few people on the night shift, no one wanted to stay in the unheated guardhouse at night.
There were white lights around the boxing ring in the gym. Carrot, who was wearing a black vest and shorts, had some white cloth strips wrapped around his hands. He kept punching the punching bag in front of him in a specific routine. The ground was already covered in traces of sweat.
It has been a week since he joined the guard station, and I have to say that it is good to have someone above him. Carlott's identity certificate and police officer certificate were completely obtained five days ago, and he even had a copy in the guard station. The complete identity file is stamped with the official seal of the garrison. No matter who comes to check it, there will be no problem.
He was almost familiar with the work in the garrison. Burke was not joking when he said he wanted to take care of him. Carlott was now Burke's follower and enjoyed the treatment of an elite police officer.
Generally, he does not need to participate in the patrol work of ordinary police officers. What he has to do every day is to follow Burke to deal with some more difficult cases.
Fortunately, there were no strange incidents this week. Burke sat in the office every day and processed some documents handed in from below, while Carlott spent all his free time on becoming stronger!
The garrison at Port Duras had a lot of money. It not only purchased a gym for all police officers, but also hired two or three professionals to take turns teaching all police officers. Kai, who was very lacking in combat skills and exercise equipment, Lott was naturally overjoyed when he heard that such a place existed.
He applied to Burke to come here for systematic fighting teaching. Since there was really nothing to do recently, and Burke wanted to train Carlot as a confidant, he readily agreed, and Carlot went Got the chance to train for a few days.
In order to seize every moment to make himself stronger, Carlott's desire to exercise can be said to have shocked everyone in the gym. In their opinion, except for eating every day, this newcomer has never stepped out of the gym. , it can be said that he touched all kinds of instruments, and they were all soaked with his sweat!
The professional who taught fighting skills was also shocked. He had never seen such a serious person, but this also aroused his desire to teach. In the past few days of teaching, he basically learned what he knew. All of these were fed into Carlott like a spoonful, and the rest depends on Carlott's own understanding.
Bang! ! Swipe and pull...
A heavy punch hit the center of the sandbag. The sandbag, which had been ravaged by Carrot for a day, finally could no longer withstand his ravages. A big hole was directly blasted out of the sturdy coat, and the sand inside flowed to the floor.
"Ah... I broke another one... It feels so good!"
He took the sandbag off the rings with one hand. This was the fifth sandbag he had broken this week. According to the rules, if such a sandbag was broken, he would have to pay for it, but when the gym manager walked over with a look of displeasure on his face, Next to Carlot, just when he was about to ask for compensation, he happened to see him blowing up the second sandbag...
So everything was business as usual... During Carlot's breaks from practice, he would come over with a few bottles of water to express his condolences...
Carrot stretched his body slightly, and a sound like exploding beans rang out all over his body. The hot feeling coming from the muscles all over his body made Carrot truly feel how powerful he was. The explosive muscles on his arms expanded and contracted, as if he were a monster. Greedily absorbing the surrounding energy!
Turning his head to look at the wall clock hanging on the wall of the gym, he wiped the sweat from his face. Carlott walked into the shower room next to him and took a shower with cold water. He used his water elemental ability to absorb the moisture and put on a suit. He put on his own clothes and returned to his rental house carrying a large bag of roast beef.
Turning on the light and walking into the bathroom, he filled the bathtub with hot water and sat in. While eating beef, he replenished the energy for the day's exercise while easing the riots in the tidal blood vessels in his body. The exercise during this period of time made Carlott need to soak in the water. The time was shortened by 10 seconds. This was the result of his calculations by counting his watch every day, which proved that his human bloodline was stronger.
Early the next morning, Carlott got up and put on the uniform of a police officer at the garrison. The uniform that originally fit him seemed a little tight today. He stood in front of the mirror and looked at it. Carlott found that he seemed to be taller and taller. I felt a lot stronger, scratched my head, and decided to have the opportunity to let the tailor shop alter my clothes again.
When he walked to his position in the garrison, he was about to pack his things and continue to the gym, but Burke called him at the door of the office.
"Carlott, don't go to the gym today. I have a difficult case here. Come with me to see the situation. Don't forget to pick up your weapon."
"Okay, Sheriff Burke!"
He pinned the firearm on the desk to his waist. The dagger he got from the bodyguard last time had been sold by Carrot for money. After adding a little more money, he got it from the weapons shop. He got his new weapon, a pair of exquisite finger tigers specially made according to the shape of his hands!
Because most of the fighting skills he learned during this period were bare-handed fighting, and Carrot could feel that his physical strength could be best utilized in this fighting system, so after a brief thought he decided to change his fighting style to It was determined to be a close combat, so in addition to the hatchet, he also customized a finger tiger.
Although the dagger is also for melee combat, the effect of this weapon is the same as that of a hatchet. Carlott cannot fight with a hatchet in one hand and a dagger in the other. After making the choice, he still feels that this kind of ax is more effective. Follow the fighting routine that suits you.
He hung the finger tigers on both sides of his waist for easy access, and inserted the short-handled ax directly into the back of Carrot's waist. Finally, he picked up the shield and followed Burke into the police car of the guard station and rushed to the scene of the crime. The incident took place in a small park within the jurisdiction of the Port Duras garrison. When the two arrived, they found that ordinary police officers from the garrison had cordoned off the area to prevent outsiders from entering and damaging the scene.
Following Burke through the blockade, he approached the scene of the incident. A bloodless, broken body in red clothes was lying on a park bench. There were many police officers around it checking the situation. The reason why This corpse is broken, that's because her current state seems to have been bitten by some kind of beast. There are three deep scratches on the chest that can be seen in the bones. The abdomen has been forcibly cut open, and the internal organs inside have disappeared. Halfway through...
"Nader, how is the situation at the scene?"
Burke put on gloves and squatted next to the corpse, reached out to remove the clothes of the female corpse, checked her wounds, and asked the young man next to him who was also squatting next to the corpse and holding a panel to record some information.
"Well... the deceased was killed by the murderer from the front. She struggled violently before she died. The lawn beside her right foot is the best proof. However, the effect did not seem to be very good. The murderer was much stronger than her. After forcibly killing her, he cut open the girl's chest and... feasted on her."
"What a beast... Are there any clues at the scene that can lead to the identity of the murderer?"
Frowning and cursing, Burke looked at more clipboards in the young man's hands and asked.
"It's still the same as before, some hair and some claw marks. You can't find the monster with these alone. After all, they normally..."
"I understand, let's go, Carlot, we have something to do!"
Burke stood up, and when he walked past Carlot, he found him staring at the corpse and couldn't help but say something.
"Chief, the murderers this time are those...monsters in the garrison files?"
There are no demon hunters in this world, but there are still many dark monsters. In terms of threat to humans alone, to some extent they are even stronger than those giants living in remote areas!
Because they usually hide among the crowd, they are just like ordinary people and cannot be seen without special methods. Only when the bloodthirsty desire in their hearts awakens, they will go out to hunt humans, and the responsibility for dealing with them will naturally fall on them. Arrived at the garrison police officers who maintain security everywhere.
Speaking of which, the ordinary dark monsters are not as powerful as those in the movies or TV series that Carlott remembers. For example, some low-level dark monsters are only at the intermediate level of forging, and bullets can also penetrate them. body.
As long as they cooperate well, a few elite police officers can completely eliminate this kind of monster in a head-on confrontation. Burke mentioned to Carlot that he had killed such a monster before, and the opponent's claws are still left by him. Keep it as a souvenir at home.
These low-level dark monsters don't have much sense when hunting humans, so the murder scenes they leave behind are quite obvious, and even senior people in the guard station can easily see them.
Carlot also understood after seeing the iconic phenomenon of devouring flesh and blood that the murderers this time were probably those monsters. To be honest, he had never seen such a threatening creature like a giant before.
He really wanted to see how they could easily hide in the crowd under normal circumstances. At the same time, Carrot also wanted to know eagerly whether it was these dark monsters that were so fierce, or him, a human with half-giant blood. Be braver!
