You're going to be busy lately, but I want everything to be done carefully. I'll give you a little more time. After a pause of less than a second or two, Pofita continued, "Besides, you have all sorted out the pile of information that Theodore and Il have gathered, find out the parts that are not very important and do me little good, and then exchange them all for visible benefits to the collectors." It's all good collections, and there will be a good income. ”

As the limousine drove into Manoma, the sky was almost overwhelmed by the weight of the black clouds, and the frequent rain did not lighten its burden. The weather was much colder, and a week or two of rain allowed Manoma to get through the autumn and enter the winter early.

The clouds were rolling, and Pofita behind the car window looked at the scene, and for some reason his mood lessened.

、、、、、、

"Captain Elyric, it's coming soon. With an excited voice, he woke up Elierick, who was resting on the seat of the car. With heavy gasps, he struggled to open his eyes, and his gaze was the dazed look before he woke up. It shouldn't have been, the physical and mental strength of the operation should have made the tiredness disappear from them a long time ago, but I don't know how long it began, Eliric couldn't remember the exact time, and the Manoma region became very chaotic, like a cloud imprinted in his eyes at this moment, completely obscuring the sky behind him.

"I'm asleep, I'm sorry. Elierick sat upright, the cold wind pouring in through the cracks in the window, waking him up quickly. With a hard shake of his head as he spoke, Eliric's head became sore at the thought of the report he was going to submit to his superiors soon. As one of thousands of members of the Imperial Special Operations Force, there are almost too many things to deal with every day. I haven't had a good rest for more than ten days, even in the car, most of them are studying the next information with the team. This time could perhaps be called an accident.

A red light came up ahead, and the huge limousine came to a slow stop. The spacious interior could easily fit nine people, including Eliric, and the rest of the room was filled with the equipment they needed. Waking up the rest of the personnel who were still resting, Elirick looked at a few newcomers who had just entered the special operations agency, admiring their mental strength from the bottom of his heart.

It seems to be the same when he first came in, Elyric thought, but it won't be long before this enthusiasm is worn out by all kinds of helplessness and anger, probably.

"How's it going?" said Elirick, rolling the window down completely, seeing that the light intensity should be almost noon.

"In the morning, I received a report from the residents that it was found that it was on the side of the road from the central area to the periphery. The Defence Forces immediately rushed over and surrounded the scene, where there were squads of other operational agencies. It was preliminarily determined to be a vendetta, and the people at the scene are still investigating further. The newcomer replied, as if he had memorized it several times beforehand.

"What about the identity of the deceased?

"Bibenson, the cloth merchant. In fact, he is an arms dealer in the dark world, and more than half a year ago, a small area of the Manoma black market was purged by unknown people, and Bibenson will take advantage of this opportunity to gradually grow stronger. This was all information from an hour or two ago, and the other team investigated. ”

"yes, I see. Elyric pondered, "Do you think this is something related to what happened more than half a year ago?" he turned his head and looked at a few of his old teammates behind him who had been with him for a few years, "It's not over, although it helped us to a certain extent. But the motives of those who do it will certainly not be pure. ”

Several of the teammates shook their heads, most of them had not even found any trace of the killer half a year ago, and even if they did, it was all with subjective thoughts in their heads. After a few years in the lower echelons of the special agency, they should take care of what should be handled and what should be handed over to their superiors, and they obediently closed their mouths, and several of them had already formed a self-reflection.

Erickle has seen this a lot, and he has done so a lot of the time. He didn't have anything to do but sigh helplessly.

A yellow cordon was drawn from a distance of more than ten meters, and the onlookers had been driven away by the defense forces, and about 20 people wearing two different costumes were standing on the side of the street, looking at the limousine in front of them in a daze.

Elirick got out of the car with his own people, some took pictures, and some took out picture books to draw the undamaged details of the scene.

A high-end limousine crashed into the side of the road, one side of the tire all burst, and there were serpentine trails of towing on the ground. A section of street lamp was firmly inserted into the limousine, penetrating the glass on both sides of the back seat, and also penetrating Bibenson's body as he wanted to jump out of the car.

All four died in the car, and none of them had the opportunity or time to get out of the car.

"Captain Elyric. Dressed in the same black outfit and about the same age, the leader of another squad walked over and said hello, "This is Fred, the captain of the Defence Force. ”

The three of them exchanged a few words, and the topic returned to the present.

"To be exact, it wasn't the residents who found out, but the residents who witnessed the process. The murderer wears a mask in the shape of a crow. The movements are neat, as if they have been rehearsed. But the body was not destroyed, and it was probably seen inside. ”

"Are the residents still alive?" asked Eliric, a rare phenomenon. The special operations agency deals with everything related to the operator, and even the pre-stage operation is fatal to ordinary people without any training. There is generally no desire to reveal identity, and while none of the hundred events have an accurate eyewitness, the mask is considered by Elie Ric to be the most failed invention.

After briefly explaining the situation, Fred left with the Guards, and Eliric approached the limousine with his gloves on.

"Bulletproof glass. While inspecting the scene, Elirick explained the basic survey method to several newcomers, "It's about four to five levels of bulletproof glass, which can completely disable ordinary bullets, unless it is a sniper rifle or a heavy machine gun concentrated attack." ”

"A huge caliber firearm that can blast through bulletproof glass with one shot, probably a revolver or something. Both of them in the back seat made up a knife from the jaw, directly grinding their brains. The warhead was picked up, plus the corrosive bacteria on the corpse that had only been in effect for a long time、、、 "Elirick walked to the side of the street, where the streetlights came from. It was cut directly by a sharp weapon, and the fracture was very smooth, and many things can be seen from this alone.

It will probably be placed in the archives to accumulate dust, and as soon as the investigation time passes, it will be uniformly reduced to ashes. Eliric thought that the murderer was very strong, and at least let him cut the street lamp, he would not be able to cut through the fracture in front of him. Professionally trained, some details of the scene show this. And relying on his own strength, he can use a lamppost to poke two layers of bulletproof glass in the window, and the power is absolutely amazing.

After less than an hour here, Elyric gathered information about the scene, leaving the two of them to wait for the others to come and drag away the limousine and the body, and then prepared to leave.

The leader of the other squad sat in the limousine with Elyric, and a vague scent of perfume entered Elyric's nose.

"Not long ago, someone went missing again. In less than a month, there are nearly 20 people, all of whom are waiters. ”

"Rosa, that street is full of high-end taverns, and you and I know who they are. Nothing can be done, trust me. If you rush into it, you won't get good results. Elyric looked out the window, his face serious and helpless.

"But you can't let this thing go on, can you?"

"I've never understood why, many, many people yearn for Manoma. To be honest, many other regions are much better than here, in every way. This is not supposed to be the place where these people come. Elirick complained.

"I don't care about other people, I just want to do my job. Although I guessed that most of the people in the special operations agency would not be loyal to the profession, it was enough to know that there were people who were doing their best to do the same thing as me. You say yes, Captain Eleyric. ”

"No, I'm not the kind of person you think, don't find me. Eric turned his head away from Rosa's smiling face, "There's a bunch of things to do, I'll get out of here first." ”

"I'll let you know when the news is gathered. Hopefully this time it won't be in the dust. ”
