Chapter Twenty-Eight: Crossbell's Movements (I)

Everything is already clear.

Prime Minister Osborne is the biggest threat to the country in a sense.

Crossbell – a city full of contradictions. It carries the dreams of many people and helps them to glory; At the same time, evil and greed are growing in the dark corners of the place. In general, it is a special city that magnifies the poles of human nature to the extreme.

The lights that go on and off do not shine in the dark corners of the city. But even in such a city, there are people who have ideals and beautiful visions, and who are willing to fight for themβ€”and although in places like Crossbell, these people exist as if they were alone, but because of this, they have much stronger beliefs than the average person.

"Let's go, don't make an example." Crossbell, in a small corner of the East Block, two gray-faced young men were panting, listening to the voice of the tall man in front of him reprimanding, "I know you have to do it, but no matter what, you can't just steal other people's things. This time, if you are a first-time offender, you will not be prosecuted. ”

"Yes." The two young men said timidly, the two of them came to the old market on East Street as usual, wanting to steal something to fill their stomachs, but they didn't want to be unlucky enough to meet the famous investigator in the city in front of them today, Guy Bannings. Fortunately, Guy usually rarely has time to take care of this kind of idle business, otherwise the two of them, who are habitual offenders, may not have any good fruit to eat.

Guy originally meant to exchange views with his old friend Arios about some investigative tasks in the search section - although it had been many years since he was kicked out of the police department, Arios and Guy's personal relationship had not been affected by this, but it was because he became a guerrilla that Arios's skills were better utilized. At the same time, because of the huge force deployed by the Guerrilla Association in Crossbell, it also carried a lot of weight as a deterrent, and those who once wanted to see Arios's jokes were silent.

What Guy is investigating is a major arms smuggling case. The investigators of the Search Division 1 were all dispatched to search for clues left by the criminals in the sprawling city according to a careful plan; As the captain, Guy is acting as a feint, pretending to lead everyone's actions, but in fact, he is engaged in the turnover of information with Arios, who is a guerrillaβ€”it should have been like this, but since it has happened, Guy naturally cannot turn a blind eye to the blatant theft.

Finally, after the reprimand, Guy waved his hand, and the two thieves ran away in confusion and panic. Guy rubbed the corners of his sour eyes, looking at this thriving city that was about to usher in dusk, and couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

"Hah...... What do I think. After a hard thump on his chest, Guy regained his strength, "I'm going to find Arios next......

"No need to look for it, it's right in front of you." Arios, who had achieved the "Sword Master of the Wind", came and went without a trace, and when Guy was not looking, he had already approached him.

"Ahh......h It's true. Guy was startled, "What's the situation?" Didn't you say that you were waiting for me at home? ”

"Since you didn't come at the appointed time, I'll just come out and have a look." Arios pouted, "Just in time to see the majestic side of our great hero Guy. ”

"Haha......" Guy scratched his head, "I'm sorry, I couldn't hold back...... I ......"

"Alright, I know it's your police soul that can't help but burn." Unlike his indifference and composure in front of the others, in front of Guy, Arios also showed a rare bad side of himself, as evidenced by his constant taunts of Guy for the past few minutes, "But I still have to warn you...... Those two people just now can be said to be habitual offenders, and Lin and Eolia have caught these two guys more than once. ”

After that, looking at Guy's slightly wilted appearance, Arios felt a burst of joy in his heart for no reason.

"Alright, that's all for gossip. Come with me, I've got something for you......"

"Is that the Wind Juggernaut......" At the ice cream stand not far away, the purple-haired girl who was sucking on her milk balls beautifully, ignoring the cream on her cheeks, stared thoughtfully in the direction Guy and Arios had left.

"yes...... Accompanied by him was Guy Bannings, the "ace" of the Search Division 1 of the Crossbell Police Department...... I've observed it, and there's no flaw in my movements. Although it can't reach the same level as the "Wind Sword Saint", it is also very good. The man wearing a hood and a trench coat on the side pulled the hood down again and said softly, "With these two people, it is really difficult to target this Cross Bell." ”

"Huh...... That's the business of people who have this kind of mind. The girl smiled, "Ling is a kitten, an observer of all this undercurrent. What about you, Levy? ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ To be honest, I haven't figured out what I'm going to do after that. Levi gently touched Ling's head, "As we agreed...... He's almost time to be here......"

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Ling still can't believe why Levi and Haliga's relationship has suddenly become so good......" Ling said with some anger, "What kind of benefit did he give Levigo." ”

"You girl, don't talk to me so utilitarian." Levi couldn't help but laugh, "But it's true...... His words are indeed different from many people's - finding out the truth about "Hamel" without warning or prompting is not something that ordinary people can do. ”

"......" Ling quieted down and didn't speak.

"So, for you...... Ling, he will be able to help you, too. "I know the most important reason why you don't want to be with Estelle and them is because of the biggest knot that hasn't been untied. ”

"......" Ling remained silent. In the past, Ling would inevitably smile and say that Ling only needed "Patil Martil" as a parent to be enough. But now, Ling, who is gradually learning how to face her inner self, will not say that.

Rei's movements were watched by Levy, which made the latter feel distressed for a whileβ€”but beyond that, it was more of a relief and a joy for Rei.

They are all partners who genuinely care about you. Whether it's Estelle and Joshua, Haliga and Feta, Old Man Jogurus, or - "the Lord" who is willing to provide shelter for himself and Rei.

Of course, although "that adult" is a respectable existence - but a certain abrasive girl next to her really makes Levi's brow frownβ€”Du Barry, Du Barry.

In any case...... the real storm of what "he" is talking about seems to be really ...... It's coming soon. ”
