Dampyr #172 (2014) pages 79-80: Human targets

Lacking any leads to find Olimpia and her gang, Harlan uses a tried and true detective tactic: Wander in the open and wait for them to attack you.

“So your plan now would be… to take a walk around Trastevere?”

“Are you surprised?”

“Nah, with you around, nothing surprises me anymore.”

“Let's just say that, if luck is blind, sometimes you have to help it see a little better.”

(Sergio, now disguised in a beret, tails Harlan and Kurjak, but they round a corner and then get the drop on him.) “It's really a problem with all these little streets... You never know where you're going.”

“How did you find us so quickly?”

“I had my eye on you. I had written down the license plate number of your car.”

“My compliments.”

“You'll never believe me, but I only came to talk.”

“But we'll ask the questions. What's your name?”

“Sergio Fusco.”

(Kurjak frisks Sergio.) “Maybe this guy is telling the truth. He's unarmed.”

“See? I come in peace.”

“Mmm... let's hear what you have to say.”

This story development took me completely by surprise.
