Chapter 41 Investigator-Shaun (Additional update for the alliance leader I am a lazy cat No. 0)
Woo woo woo!
With the sound of the train whistle, Xiao En's figure walked out of the bathroom at the train station.
He was wearing a large black windbreaker and a black bowler hat. He looked a bit like a private detective in Dorne, which attracted the attention of passers-by.
Xiao En really didn’t expect that Mr. Men would send him to this position.
He came out of the mirror.
There are dark clouds in the sky and it may rain today.
"It seems that there are many doors leading to the weird kingdom in the entire city of Dorne." Xiao En looked at the passing crowd and asked secretly: "Is it a hidden teleportation circle?"
Mr. Men is also an unfathomable and strange existence.
Xiao En carried his suitcase and followed the crowd towards the train station. He looked like an ordinary traveler. There was a huge crowd near the train station. At this time of year, there were many outsiders. migrant workers.
Urbanization is gradually concentrating the population.
At the exit of the train station, Xiao En saw a familiar figure.
Benjamin Tillion.
He is still wearing a crisp suit, a tall top hat, and holding a black umbrella in his hand. His slender and tall figure stands out in the crowd, with a handsome face and a high nose, like an ancient Greek statue. Her facial features attracted the attention of many young women passing by.
A decent gentleman.
"Welcome back, Sean." Benjamin greeted with a smile.
Xiao En pretended to be flattered and joked: "Why is it that the captain came to pick me up?"
Benjamin, modest and polite as always, said calmly: "I happen to be on vacation today."
At this time, Xiao En noticed a timid figure.
Is it him?
Xiao En saw a boy about fifteen or sixteen years old, looking at him with a hint of awe. The man stood behind Benjamin. After noticing Xiao En's gaze, he stood up timidly and greeted: " Hello. Mr. Sean. "
One of the two thieves who stole Sean's wallet, the youngest.
Benjamin introduced: "Jeff Fan."
"Trainee investigator."
"Hank is on vacation during this time, and I will take him with me for the time being. .”
Is this being incorporated?
Xiao En nodded slightly, then frowned and said, "Isn't Hank back yet?"
Hank is the fishing guy in the dock area.
A senior investigator.
A bit talkative.
If Xiao En remembers correctly, Hank had already started taking vacation at that time. Xiao En studied with Ms. Hecate for more than two months. Hank should have finished his vacation long ago. After all, investigators only have three jobs a year. About a month of vacation time.
Benjamin lowered his voice a little and said softly: "He accidentally came into contact with the Mirror Demon some time ago."
"Headquarters granted him an extra half-month's leave."
< br>Mirror demon?
Indescribable vanity?
Xiao En nodded silently. After the investigator came into contact with the strange creature, he really needed to adjust his mental state.
There have always been weird intrusions into the real world. Investigators, night watchmen, and death patrollers. Xiao En doesn’t know if there are any higher-level existences, but the extraordinary ones have been silently guarding the peace of the real world. It is the cornerstone of maintaining the order of reality.
Order no longer exists, and reality no longer exists.
I don’t know if it was Xiao En’s illusion, but he felt that the boy who once stole his wallet was much shorter than the last time they met.
People will grow taller normally.
People will grow shorter and shorter, which is very abnormal.
Benjamin came by car this time, a relatively retro old car. The driver was William, who smiled and said hello to Xiao En.
"He is very talented."
Benjamin glanced at the half-grown boy behind him, seemed to be aware of Xiao En's doubts, and said softly: "Halfling bloodline, wanderer path .”
“It’s just that I went astray at a young age.”
"We have investigated his family background, and it is very clean. He has a mother with tuberculosis, a younger brother, and a younger sister. They are all very young. His father died unexpectedly early in his life. The higher-ups plan to cultivate him." Xiao En nodded silently. He shouldn't have asked. Don’t ask too much.
Ordinary people need a little bit of luck to become extraordinary. Those whose personalities change drastically and show signs of losing control just after being promoted are dangerous targets. The Night Watch Headquarters has its own set of evaluation criteria, and there is a very strict review process for recruiting extraordinary people from outside.
Halfling blood?
So the extraordinary relic he fused contains the genes of the legendary race? No wonder Xiao En had no time to react during the first fight.
The agility of halflings is not comparable to that of humans.
Many extraordinary relics from the outside world are not pure, they contain some dangerous impurities.
Part of the transcendent essence comes from the 'Supreme Mother Goddess, the Mother of Evil, the Dark Mother Tree, the Black Goat that gave birth to thousands of children'. She is the pillar-level Old One in the realm of flesh and blood. In the Dark Age, He swallowed All legendary races other than humans, and the genes of these races will condense into fruits with grotesque power along with the twisted trees of the dark forest.
More than half of the evil things in the Weird Kingdom were bred by Him.
These evil creatures contain the genes of the legendary races of the old era, so the extraordinary beings who are promoted through this path will eventually change their race template.
This promotion path has stronger talents, higher pollution, and the greatest chance of losing control.
Someone once specifically searched for the gene seeds of the ‘mythical race’.
The 'Mother' that Xiao En once fought against had digested the genetic sequence of the elven race. Her physical fitness was far superior to that of Benjamin and others.
Big pendulum clock.
It was still the first apartment, Building 3, 12B. The familiar environment made Xiao En feel at home.
When he got out of the car, he saw a little girl selling flowers.
The other party's eyes paused on Xiao En's body for a moment, with a hesitant expression on his little face. When he saw Xiao En waving, he trotted over happily.
"Good morning, sir." The little girl greeted very politely.
Xiao En took out a 1 dinar note and picked a bouquet of light yellow chrysanthemums from the other party's hand.
The little girl handed over the change and thanked: "Thank you, sir. I wish you a happy day."
The room is still the same.
It seems that no one else has checked in since he left.
Benjamin had other things to do and left after picking up Xiao En. He will not take him to the headquarters to officially take up his post tomorrow.
“It’s still comfortable to live here.”
Xiao En took off his coat and put away the four revolvers. There was a small bottle in the lining pocket, which contained sulfur. After thinking about it, I put it back in my pocket.
Someone had cleaned it in advance, and the eggs, milk, seasonings, etc. inside seemed to have been replaced.
"After I officially join the job, I have to pay the bills myself."
"Fortunately, the investigator has housing subsidies."
Xiao En made himself a cup of black tea , came to the balcony and looked at the bustling market in the distance, murmuring: "The real world is better!..."
The Kingdom of Weirdness.
Some people are carrying a heavy burden forward, and maybe one day, Xiao En will also take on a heavy burden.
There is no free lunch in this world.
After Xiao En came to this world, he needs to take responsibility for the favors he has received and the rights he has enjoyed.
Park area.
There are not so many pedestrians in the afternoon, only some college students having a picnic.
Xiao En came to the standing unknown stone monument and presented a bouquet of pale yellow chrysanthemums in his hand.
“I know you have been here before.”
“I am not so desperate.” Xiao En took off his hat and bowed deeply.
The sun is shining brightly.
Xiao En looked up at the sun. The breeze blew away the dark clouds and scattered the dazzling light on the earth.
