After a silence.


    Arlene wiped away the tears on her face. Her expression became more sophisticated, shook her head slightly and said helplessly, "OK, OK! Everything is my fault, Mr. Cole. As long as the price is reasonable, my teacher and I can accept it.


    Five thousand pounds. What do you think? "


    "Uh..."


    Haley smiled awkwardly and politely, took Arlene''s arm with her right hand and said, "in fact, we still owe him eleven thousand pounds."


    The girl was stunned for a moment, spread her hands, opened her eyes, said in a very shocked tone, "eleven thousand pounds?! God, Haley, are you serious?!


    You didn''t say that the money was you... "


    That''s it.


    Seems to be aware of something.


    He hurried to cover his mouth with his hand, frozen his expression, and then smiled awkwardly at Cole.


    Haley turned her eyes and sighed helplessly. With an open-minded attitude, she sat up straight, faced Cole face to face, and said seriously, "well, Cole, there are some things I must admit.


    First of all, Arlene is not my student. She is my partner.


    The second thing, she and I were really caught, by an old guy who went shopping in the bakery and found out our identity.


    The third thing... I''m really broke. "


    Cole looked unmoved and said coldly, "you know what I want to hear, Haley."


    That''s it.


    The atmosphere in the room gradually became dull and depressing.


    As Haley''s sober cognition, the relationship between them and Cole may only be better than their sworn enemies, so they won''t have to kill each other as soon as they meet.


    But.


    She had no reason to let the ruthless demon hunter take great risks and bail her and Arlene out.


    I noticed something was wrong with the atmosphere.


    Arlene opened her mouth and wanted to say something.


    However, seeing Cole''s cold face, he stopped talking.


    Finally.


    As if determined, Haley took a deep breath and said, "I know you''ll never believe me.


    Who would believe a woman whose life is surrounded by lies and death.


    But one thing, I didn''t deceive you.


    Arlene and I are not witches. To be exact, we don''t know where we come from and what we are. The title of witch is just my self claim and used to prevaricate you.


    So that one day in the future, you will be treated as a witch, just like today. "


    When she said this, she and Arlene looked at Cole. The fear in their eyes was not like disguise, but more like a heavy worry.


    For humans.


    The story of Cole walker, written as a book, must be a biography that people enjoy talking about.


    But if we change the perspective of the surrogate and impose it on the dark creatures, it will become a horror story in a full sense.


    without doubt.


    It''s like digging your own grave when an extremely dangerous demon hunter learns about their residence and some professional habits.


    Photographed in someone''s extremely bloody and cruel treatment of dark creatures.


    Even Haley Johnny, the industry''s most famous Bounty Killer, can only smile.


    Compared with the first time, I reported my home just for the three thousand pounds and business.


    as time goes on.


    The name Cole walker is wildly spread in the dark world. In addition to regret, there is only anxiety left.


    Last time I went to Cole to borrow money.


    God knows how long she lingered on the first floor of Burton building for that matter.


    Now?


    They were arrested on death row and even watched by an old guy suspected of trial sequence.


    It''s easy to leave here, but living safely is like dreaming.


    If you can''t wash your identity, even if you leave here, you can only run away under the pursuit of the old guy and the demon hunting group.


    So the only person who can help them is Cole.


    That''s it.


    Arlene frowned, perhaps to comfort, gently took Haley''s hand and remained silent.


    Cole could not judge how credible her words were.


    The only certainty is that these two guys who call themselves witch are really worried about being killed by him one day.


    "Go on."


    Haley and Arlene looked at each other with melancholy or emotion.


    "Every witch is an orphan, Cole.


    Mother died when she gave birth to us.


    We have the same body and appearance as human beings, but we are not accepted by the outside world. We are regarded as unclean and disaster and abandoned by our relatives.


    You must have heard of the notorious Salem Witch trial.


    Strictly speaking, the girl involved in the burning in that case is essentially the same as me.


    However, in that era when witches were rampant, like the wizard incident of the Nord order, many wary witches living in the human world would be caught as witches, interrogated, and then burned to death on the gallows.


    As far as I can remember, the only one who helped me was a bounty killer who was also a witch. Unfortunately, she died, so I inherited her career.


    People like us have no place for us except in the dark world to make money and survive. In the world under the sun... "


    Arlene then said, "but I can assure you, Mr. Cole, Haley and I have never taken the initiative to hurt humans. We will take the task issued by the guild only to make a living.


    I''m fine. In addition to occasionally cheating some Playboys'' feelings and money, the bakery business is enough to take care of life.


    But


    Haley''s life needs a lot of money. That money bag is the source of all her strength and the vicious curse of her life. "


    After that.


    They held hands and looked at each other as a sign of comfort.


    Not to mention whether Cole was moved by them, this may be a fabricated bitter story. At least, they were moved in a mess.


    They almost hugged each other on the spot and cried loudly.


    But one thing is exactly the same as Cole''s guess.


    That purse is really the source of Haley Johnny''s strength.


    After a silence, Cole said, "I''m not interested in your story, and I don''t want to know whether it''s true or false, but if you''re really not dark creatures.


    I can transfer your case to the special department.


    Let the Institute of mystics confirm your identity. If it is correct, I can guarantee your parole for a period of time. "


    "Did you... Agree?"


    It doesn''t seem to go out of the memory of the past.


    Haley''s voice lacks the cunning and philistine she used to face Cole, and appears quite sincere.


    Cole got up, picked up the long knife on the table and said coldly, "the demon hunting regiment is not a bureaucratic machine that indiscriminately kills innocent people, nor am I a cold-blooded and ruthless butcher.


    You have no connection with the Nord order, which is certain.


    As for the case you committed in the killer industry, I''m not a detective. This kind of thing doesn''t belong to me.


    If everything goes well, I''ll give you a definite answer within today.


    However, if I find the exact evidence of your connection with hell... I hope you can be prepared for it. "


    Cole went to the door and pulled the handle with his right hand.


    Haley hurried up and said, "thank you for your trust, Cole."
