Chapter 67 Insufficient Authority(1/2)
Chapter 67 Insufficient authority
Lieque decided to ask Qiao Gancao to accompany me to Tianhe City.
"Qiao Licorice?" I said, "Isn't this appropriate?"
"She is not suitable, who else is suitable? In other words, apart from Qingniao and Qiao Licorice, who else are you familiar with in the Liucheng Security Bureau? With Qingniao's power, if he acts together with you, he will definitely be noticed in advance by being bitten.
Qiao Licao doesn't have this kind of 'shortcoming'. She has been very free recently and just happened to be with you." Lie Que said, "Or do you think you can deal with the Tianhe City Security Bureau on your own?"
After hearing this, I thought about it for a while.
Tianhe City Security Bureau is where Saber Tooth works. If I go to Tianhe City for activities, I may run into Saber Tooth again. If Saber Tooth ignites the desire for revenge again and wants to swing his sword at me, I will not be honest this time.
Give up your life, otherwise the blue bird will die of cardiac paralysis.
And even putting this aside, just meeting Sabretooth's friends and colleagues over there would not be without the possibility of friction. To say the least, it goes without saying how dirty my past and reputation are. Other law enforcement officers
It is reasonable for the warlock to find fault with me. And I am not a person who is good at interpersonal communication. If I go back and forth, unnecessary troubles may arise. If there is a character who can help smooth things over, I can avoid that kind of embarrassment.
, that is naturally the best.
But I still struggled a little, "You should know my relationship with Jade Bird."
"It has already spread in the security bureau," Lieque said. "It's spread like wildfire. It's hard not to know."
Is there such a thing? I was stunned for a moment, and then continued: "Qiao Licao is also a young woman. Is it not good for her and I to go on a business trip together?"
He asked directly: "Will you cheat?"
In the eyes of today's people, nature and the supernatural are clearly distinct; but in the eyes of the ancients, the basic elements of the world are those things that modern people think of as supernatural.
She just doesn't want you to see how she usually lusts after you.
The above are what Qingniao said when she was my "tutor". She really liked playing the role of my teacher. Sometimes when I read the textbook in front of her, she would suddenly take it away to see what I was reading, and then
She started class with high spirits. I also liked seeing her talking to me with a happy expression, so I would never refuse her.
But runes also belong to the field of secret knowledge. Even if ordinary people with insufficient awareness get it, they will persuade themselves to put it away for various reasons, or abandon it casually, or forget it for no reason.
As a result, I read through the whole book, but I didn't feel that I was destined to any rune. Maybe it was like what the Siren said, I was never destined to become a warlock, so I hit a wall in this aspect.
It seems that his talent for spells is as good as his awareness, and he can reshape the world view very quickly. You must know that the most difficult step for a layman to become a warlock is to change the way he perceives the world.
But now I am an official law enforcement warlock, and my reading rights have been upgraded.
As for what runes are, there is probably no need to explain them. Throughout the world, wherever there is writing spread, there will be legends about "writings containing magical power", such as traditional Taoist talismans, or mystical enthusiasts are very
Familiar rune characters, etc. This kind of characters will create wonderful effects just by drawing or pronouncing them, and the combination and arrangement are even more wonderful.
He lowered his head with a blushing face, his eyes nowhere to be seen, "Let... let it go..."
Suddenly, Qiao An's face turned red and she quickly withdrew her hand like a frightened animal.
Speaking of which, although there is nothing shameful, there are some things that are harmful to the mental health of teenagers. It is better not to let him see them. For example, the memories of the middleman, even I can't stand it after seeing it, and I was affected by it some time ago.
It is really harmful to have to look at Qiao An through colored glasses.
I asked Qingniao about learning, and her advice was very simple, which is to give full play to your awareness. Strong awareness can recognize the correct form of runes and bind the memory of the runes in your mind.
Unlike me, Qiao An has made rapid progress in learning spells, and today he mastered the first spell in his life.
The archives of the Security Bureau are electronic, and you need corresponding permissions to read the files. Previously, I was a non-staff law enforcement warlock, and I only had temporary permissions, and many files were prohibited from being read.
"This is the care of a teacher." He said categorically, like an old father who saw his daughter hanging out with gangsters on the roadside. Because he couldn't get angry with his daughter, he had to show his face to me.
"Just let it out." As I spoke, I stretched out my hand, wanting to pat his shoulder and let him relax. But when I was about to touch him, I felt that it wasn't good, and his body suddenly looked different.
a little nervous.
"If I am killed, how can I not die?" I really can't figure out his "idea of asking the question."
I met him after entering the Security Bureau. As soon as we met, he couldn't help but share his joy with me.
I continued to ask: "Has the spell been released?"
"It's nothing." He said, "Let's stop talking here, I'm hanging up."
I feel that he has other hidden motives. But I have been thinking about it for a long time, but I still can't figure out what his motives are.
——
The document appointing me to Tianhe City to conduct the "Follow-up Investigation of the Bairi Town Fog Incident" came out quickly. After confirming the contents of the document, I completed my daily study homework in my temporary residence, and then went to the Security Bureau
, planning to investigate more information about the night before in the archives before going on a business trip.
To avoid embarrassment, I pretended not to know and asked, "What's wrong?"
Qiao An, on the other hand, was not very clear about those complicated things. He couldn't hide his excitement and told me that he had learned the spell. Suddenly, he had a strange look on his face, "Why do you have a strange feeling on your body... hmm? Chains
?Wait, why do I think of chains..."
Another example is the file about "Siren", which is something I have wanted to see for a long time but couldn't.
"I have nothing to do with others." I said, "I finally learned the magic. Let's give it a try first."
And even for someone like me, who has up to par in awareness, learning is not that easy.
Seeing this, I took my hand back and said without changing my expression: "Then let's come here first this time. I still have something to do. If you still want to practice in the future, you can come to me again."
For example, it's funny to say that the files about "Majin Li Duo" are obviously about me, but I didn't have permission to read them in the past.
"The other party has already opened up to you. Do you still need to use magic to understand what the other party is thinking at this moment?" I asked.
"Well... it's a kind of mind-reading skill." He became embarrassed when talking about the specific content, "This spell can understand the other person's thoughts at this moment by contacting the other person's body and on the premise that the other person opens their heart..."
I tried to recall what the runes looked like a second ago, but I was surprised to find that it was not only the runes on the paper that had changed, but also the runes in my memory that had no final shape, as if they were alive and unpredictable.
I also breathed a long sigh of relief and watched his back disappear around the corner.
Hearing this, he closed his eyes. I felt the spirituality in the air vaguely moving towards his body. After a long time, he seemed to have completed his preparations, opened his eyes, and carefully moved his hands.
Pressed on my chest.
But even I often feel that I am not a good match for Jade Bird, and I am not very good at refuting the opponent. And Lie Que was silent for a while, and then changed the topic, "Li Duo, biting blood and the people you encountered before
The enemies of the Old Bones, the In-Between, and the Succubus are all completely different. She is really very dangerous, and it is really possible to kill you. However, maybe I will make you confused when I ask this... assuming she really kills you.
If I kill you, will you really die?"
"No more." I said.
As for the so-called "homework", in addition to the Security Bureau's general knowledge textbook, it also includes my newly acquired knowledge of runes.
"No." I said.
What do you mean by "getting things done"? While I was cursing, I asked, "Aren't you Qingniao's teacher?"
The way true magicians view the world is incompatible with secular society. They are more like the ancients.
"Really?" He confirmed again and again, "I really want to use it?"
Oops, are the things I just thought about seen?
I still remember that when I was a child, I saw a special toy card. I got it as a bonus for dry noodles or other snacks. I don’t know what kind of manufacturing process was used. The pattern on the card will change according to the viewing angle.
Change. These runes reminded me of that kind of card. It’s just that I haven’t changed the angle of viewing, but the runes are still unpredictable. One second it was the same, and the next second it was completely different.
Back to the present, the reason why Qiao An appeared in the Security Bureau was because he was a witness to the Bairi Town Fog Incident. Unfortunately, some people in the Security Bureau had some "views" about my report (not so much about me
report, rather than me), so I asked Qiao An, who was traveling with me at the time, to compare it with my report.
One of the manifestations is that when modern people are searching for evidence of miracles, they may ask people who firmly believe in miracles, "If this is the case, then prove it to me." The premise of this questioning method is the modern worldview. Because modern people
People who firmly believe that the flow of wind and water are caused by physical laws will not believe that miracles have already appeared in every corner of life unless evidence is shown to them; and for those who firmly believe that "the flow of wind and water contains gods and gods"
For the ancients who were "elves", modern people's doubts about miracles are filled with an indescribable sense of weirdness just from the way they ask questions.
The display lit up the archive interface.
"I can detect it," I said. "I can't guarantee other things, but I will never make a mistake about my own life and death."
"My sister has closed her heart to me." He sighed, "Maybe she actually hates me..."
Instead of immersing myself in the emotion of self-pity, I decided to start learning the most basic "ignite the flame" rune again.
"You can practice with me." I said.
Could it be that he was aware of the curse of the blue bird? His awareness should not be underestimated... I had no intention of talking about that matter with him, but changed the topic back to, "What spells have you learned?"
"Can't I practice with your sister?" I asked.
In order to check whether my permissions have really been upgraded, I took a look at several files that were previously prohibited from being viewed.
However, strong awareness does not necessarily mean strong magical talent. Moreover, when it comes to learning runes, what is more important is the fate between you and the runes. If you feel that you can't learn the current runes, it is best to
Change the runes and continue learning.
Let alone drawing it, I can't even remember it clearly.
"You used to have absolute immortality, but what about you now?" He asked, "Do you still have that ability?"
"Yeah, so it's a useless spell." He said helplessly, "And I can't find anyone to practice it. I haven't used it once since I learned it."
I really did something that I couldn't forgive him for, I hope he won't be left with a psychological shadow because of it.
To be continued...
