Mechanical Alchemist

Chapter 104: Do you know me?

Su'en didn't expect to see this scene inside the house from outside the window. A woman with a knife was interrogating the human trafficker, Dam, that he was looking for.

With spider legs fixed, he instinctively pulled out his gun, wanting to aim, but instantly lowered the muzzle. He knew very well that the woman in front of him was incredibly powerful, and even shooting wouldn't hurt her. What's more, he noticed that even if the woman discovered him, she didn't show any signs of attack or malice.

The woman had shoulder-length purple hair and was wearing a tight bunny girl outfit. She wore a gothic-style short skirt with a left slit that reached her hip bone, black thigh-high stockings, and furry bunny ears...coupled with her cold expression while holding the knife, she exuded a kind of cold-blooded sexiness all over her body.

Judging from her attire, it seemed to be a disguise for infiltration.

This was the first time Su'en had seen this woman's figure, and a thought flashed through his mind: "I remember the wanted notice said her hair color was silver-white...and wasn't she called a 'mechanical warrior'? Doesn't seem like it..."

Because of the bikini-like bodysuit, her graceful figure was fully revealed, with a high hip line, which was a sign of strong gluteal and leg muscle explosiveness. She also wore black high-heeled boots, making her legs look very slender. It was precisely because of this perfect proportion that it felt somewhat unreal, as if she had been artificially crafted according to the golden ratio.

The woman with purple hair also didn't expect someone to suddenly appear outside the window, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.

The two locked eyes for a moment.

.......

One person held a knife to the human trafficker's neck, while the other was preparing to climb in through the window. Obviously, both sides realized that the other shouldn't be a member of the Steam Party.

But why did this "walking three million" not find a place to hide and come here?

Moreover, what Su'en found strange was that when the woman saw him just now, there was obviously a sense of alertness in her eyes, as if she wanted to raise her knife, but it disappeared in an instant, and she put away her intention to attack.

That look, as if...she recognized someone?

Both sides remained motionless in this tacit understanding.

The woman with purple hair seemed to have obtained the information she needed. She didn't care that there were onlookers outside the window and casually swung her white coiled rope katana, ending Dam's life.

Blood spilled onto the carpet, and the strong smell of blood permeated the air.

Su'en hung outside the window, witnessing this woman casually killing someone, suddenly not knowing what he should do.

The other party didn't show any malice, but he didn't get the key either. It didn't feel right to go in, and leaving also seemed inappropriate.

At this moment, the woman with purple hair extinguished her cigarette, sheathed her knife, and then turned her head to ask Su'en, "What are you here for?"

Su'en said, "To get the key and save the slaves in the basement."

Upon hearing this, the woman gave him another look.

She thought for a moment, bent down, and expressionlessly pulled a bunch of keys from the waist of the corpse, throwing them to Su'en. She added, "I'll stay in the house for another five minutes."

Although her words were brief, Su'en understood. He only had five minutes to save the people.

Or maybe in five minutes, she was preparing to make a big move?

"Thank you."

But Su'en didn't bother with her business. He was here to save people, and he wasn't interested in what this woman wanted to do.

He turned around and prepared to leave, but before he left, he couldn't help but ask, "Do you know me?"

"..."

The woman was very indifferent and completely ignored his question.

Su'en waited for a second, didn't get an answer, and climbed down the wall along the wall.

But he understood the expression of the woman just now.

She must know him.

No, to be precise, she knew the "original host"!

The transcendent abilities in this world were varied, and there might be the ability of high-precision facial recognition, such as eyes, skull contours, and teeth, which were not easily changed by disguise.

This woman obviously recognized the original host, but it seemed that they didn't have any relationship.

Who was she, and who was the original host?

.......

Su'en didn't think too much about it and went down the wall with the key.

He put away the equipment and went straight to the basement.

Opening the heavy iron door, a foul smell rushed over. Inside were about fifty or sixty ragged people, young and old, clearly impoverished people struggling to survive. They crouched in various corners of the cell, trembling as they looked at the masked Su'en.

Su'en didn't waste time and said directly, "Go, go out and go upstairs. Remember not to make any noise. Jump over the wall from the second-floor window and you'll be on the main street outside. Whether you can escape or not depends on your luck."

If he could help, he didn't mind lending a hand, but he knew very well that he couldn't take away so many people alone.

The people in the cell were initially afraid, but after seeing the body of the guard on the ground, they knew that the masked person in front of them was not a human trafficker.

One person tried to walk towards the door and found that Su'en didn't stop him, so he quickly escaped. Seeing this, the people in the house rushed out in a panic.

Su'en acted quickly and caught three and a half children at the door.

The others didn't pay attention to him catching people and quickly fled the large basement.

Nancy and the other three people were caught, their faces full of fear, thinking that this masked person was going to trouble them.

But Su'en didn't waste words and directly took out three sets of new clothes and boots from his storage ring, saying, "Danny entrusted me to save you. After jumping over the wall, immediately change into these clothes and remember to throw away your dirty clothes in the sewer. Then, don't run around, walk slowly south along the street, and don't look around!"The orphan thieves of the Knight District had been cleaned out. If these guys were to escape to the streets, they would easily be recognized and captured by the Steam Party. Su'en didn't want to go through the trouble of rescuing them again.

Upon hearing the name Danny, the three faces lit up with excitement.

Beta: "Ah, Big Brother Danny is coming to save us!"

Brown: "I told you, Big Brother Danny will definitely find a way to save us."

The little girl named Nancy looked at Su'en and timidly said, "Thank you, sir."

Su'en interrupted the excitement of these little brats, and coldly shouted, "Get moving!"

The three youngsters were startled and didn't dare to delay, they quickly went upstairs.

Su'en, however, walked straight out of the small building.

Now that the people had been rescued, his job was to buy them some more time.

After waiting a few seconds, Su'en listened carefully. It seemed that two members of the Steam Party had heard the noise and were heading towards the small building.

Then in the darkness, there were two muffled gunshots, and the bodies fell directly onto the road.

Su'en walked out of the small building and stood in the open space. The two sentries drinking on the second-floor iron staircase also noticed him, but before they could sound the alarm, their heads exploded like snowflakes, and their bodies fell from the iron staircase.

While killing, Su'en also noticed a gaze from the third-floor window watching him. Looking up, the purple-haired woman was watching everything indifferently.

Su'en glanced at her and then withdrew his gaze.

He killed all the members of the Steam Party near the small building, then calmly walked towards the bathroom window and climbed back in.

He put on his coat, removed the skull scarf covering his face, and like a normal patron using the restroom, returned to the club's main hall.

The entire rescue process took less than eight minutes.

In the booth, he was greeted by the seductive smile of a bunny girl.

......

Su'en didn't rush to leave, but instead sat drinking with the girl.

He had been worried about being suspected, but now it seemed that this "Walking Three Million" would probably take the blame for everything tonight.

However, a few gang members dying wasn't a big deal, revenge, turf wars, conflicts, people died every day.

What he cared more about was, why was this woman here?

And why did she know the original owner?

"Darm is a slave trader, what does she want with him? She's now an S-class fugitive, instead of hiding, she's taking such a big risk to commit a crime, her purpose must not be simple..."

Just as this thought popped into Su'en's head, he estimated that the five minutes the purple-haired woman mentioned should be almost up.

At that moment, the lights in the entire club suddenly dimmed, and thick smoke began to billow from the ceiling.

Someone shouted, "Fire!"

Something flammable must have been ignited upstairs, the fire spread very quickly, and the thick smoke filled the entire "Black Jazz Club" in an instant.

Seeing the ceiling on fire, Su'en's eyebrows raised slightly, realizing it was arson to cover their tracks.

With that shout, chaotic footsteps came from upstairs, and the thousands of people on the first-floor dance floor began to panic and rush towards the exit.

Su'en calmly retreated with the bunny girl in his arms.

As they were leaving, they saw a group of Steam Party members checking everyone at the door, seemingly guessing that someone with ill intentions might be trying to escape in the crowd.

The bunny girl clung to Su'en's hand in panic, as a "regular" he naturally wasn't suspected, and they smoothly exited the door.

"Oh my God, it's so scary, how could it suddenly catch fire..."

"Oh, what a letdown. Moira, I'll come find you another day."

"Mr. Nicholas, see you next time..."

Su'en didn't linger, hailed a steam taxi, and got in.

The motorcycle was heading south along the street, just as Nancy and the three youngsters were walking along the roadside, pretending to be casual.

Su'en called them over to get in the car, then picked up Danny at the corner, and the group headed back to the South District.
