After leaving the detective station, Su Xiao took Yiswei Bonnie and Bubo Wang and rushed to the headquarters of the execution agency, while Ammu went to comfort the hungry stomach. The previous breakfast was too little for it.
There is an endless stream of pedestrians on the stone road. Although there was an incident of ghosts attacking people on the street last night, the civilians on the street did not show any panic. After all, humans and ghosts have coexisted for many years. Although civilians are afraid, they have become somewhat accustomed to it.
Along the way, Issaway Bonnie remained silent and just followed Su Xiao. She seemed to be thinking about something. There was a blond hair wrapped around her slender index finger. Whenever she thought of any clue, she would pull it off.
Blonde, in her words, pain will deepen her memory of something.
When she walked from the detective station to the headquarters of the execution agency, Issaway Bonnie already had six hairs in her hand. Boo Boo Wang looked at it and shook her head. If there were more cases, Issaway Bonnie would cut herself into pieces.
Bald.
Su Xiao quickly arrived at the headquarters of the execution agency. This is a five-story building with a large area. There is an isolation area nearby. Except for the front, anyone who dares to approach the backyard or side yard of the headquarters of the execution agency will be killed without mercy!
And he died in vain.
Yes, it is so arrogant. Awakened people are permanently stationed at the headquarters of the execution agency. With them here, the safety index here can be imagined. In Zur City, except for the Parliament Palace (the residence and office of the monarch, similar to a palace), there are several executions
The agency headquarters is the safest.
Because of this, there are a large number of confidential documents and dangerous items stored in the basement of the execution agency. No one except Lord Harold has the right to open it. Even Lord Harold does not have the complete key to the basement. The key
There are three keys in total, one is in the hands of Lord Harold, one is in the hands of Mrs. Nancy, and the last one is in the hands of Su Xiao. The combination of the three keys can open the basement.
The Palace of Parliament is often visited by outsiders, and those confidential documents and dangerous items are time bombs. Looking at Zur City, there is no place more suitable for storing these than the headquarters of the execution agency.
In front of the courtyard gate of the execution institution, two men were leaning on the doorposts on both sides. One of them looked lazy, and the other was mumbling nonsense.
"This is the legendary headquarters of the execution agency? It's a little different from what you imagined."
Issaway Bonnie seemed a little excited. Although she had a very high IQ, this was her first time coming into contact with such a mysterious and violent institution. In her imagination, the guards at the headquarters of the execution agency should look ferocious and have eyes like falcons.
That's right, and of the two people in front of the door, one seemed like he didn't sleep well last night, and the other was a typical charlatan.
At this moment, two pairs of eyes looked at Isaway Bonnie. With just one glance, Isaway Bonnie felt like she was falling into an ice furnace. The owner of those two pairs of eyes seemed to be able to tear her apart at any time.
Damn, that look doesn't look like a human being, more like... a ghost or a demon.
"Legion Commander, this is... you know, we..."
The awakened person who looked like a magic stick was very polite. Things in the headquarters were of great importance and no one had the privilege. This was Su Xiao, the deputy commander. If anyone else had dared to bring outsiders in, he would have been detained and questioned long ago.
"Take her to deal with some trouble, you want to know?"
"I don't want to, I don't want to..."
The Awakened Magic Stick waved his hands repeatedly, and licking blood from the edge of his knife was his daily routine, so he cherished this comfortable 'holiday' even more.
"Don't hang around, let's go."
Su Xiao patted Isaway Bonnie's back. With this pat, Issaway Bonnie's body straightened forward, as if she had just woken up from a dream. Just now, she seemed to be in some strange state.
A group of people entered the courtyard of the headquarters of the execution agency, and the awakened man was helpless.
"no problem."
Another sleepy-eyed awakened person spoke. It was obvious that he had just done something to Isaway Bonnie.
…
On the third floor of the execution agency headquarters, in the office of the deputy commander.
At this time, Su Xiao was sitting behind her desk, holding a document stamped with confidentiality in her hand.
"I see!"
Isaway Bonnie pulled off seven or eight of her hairs with a snap, grinning in pain.
"Woof!"
BooBoo Wang glared at Bonnie. The little luoli was a little startled when reasoning, and her smile gradually became abnormal.
"Mr. Legion Commander, tell me... why is Ghost Ring causing trouble for you?"
Bonnie put her hands on the desk. Although she has a very high IQ, she is still a child after all.
"If I knew, why would I come to you?"
"Uh~"
Isaway Bonnie was choked and speechless. After a while, she reorganized her thoughts.
"First of all, the Ghost Ring is a force composed of ghosts, and their ability to sneak into Zul City means that they have begun to take shape. At least one of the most basic things of the force is the power system. It is impossible for a piece of loose sand to sneak into Zul City.
If you want to successfully infiltrate, being sneaky is obviously not a long-term solution.
So they need an identity that can be exposed to the sun. There are two possibilities. One is to accumulate it over time. From the time a baby is born, his identity belongs to the ghost, and then to narrow the human social network as much as possible.
, and was eventually replaced by ghosts, so that they would have a legal identity. The second was to bribe officials of the empire and start from the population registration department, which was faster, but the risk of exposure was higher.
In any case, they have now completed their infiltration. This level of painstaking efforts is definitely not as simple as coming to Zul City to eat people. The human flesh here will not be more delicious than that in other cities. So, they want to complete something.
Something happened, and you, Commander of the Legion, and Mrs. Nancy have obviously influenced them, or in other words, their target is the headquarters of the execution agency? What’s so special about this place?"
That's the end of Issaway Bonnie's narration. She was able to come up with this based on some trivial information, which obviously lived up to her reputation.
"Special place..."
Su Xiao's index finger lightly touched the desk. If there was anything special about the execution agency's headquarters, it was definitely the alloy-structured basement. In that nearly two thousand square meters basement, there was indeed something that the ghost wanted.
"The 16-eyed ghosts are special enough. Is this their purpose?"
"..."
Issaway Bonnie's mind began to buzz, and things were getting worse. The 16-eyed ghosts came out. Even if that thing wasn't the world-destroying devil, it was definitely a terrifying existence that could destroy the city. Only in ghost stories
That's why there is such a monster.
"There are three keys in total, Nancy's one, and here is one," Su Xiao inadvertently glanced at the 'root carving' on the table, which was the dried ghost claw.
"The last one is..."
Boom, boom, boom.
Su Xiao's thoughts were interrupted by a knock on the door. A man wearing slim armor and red hair walked into the room.
"Mr. Cuculin, your Majesty invites you."
The coming person's breath was extremely sharp. Su Xiao stood up and picked up the dried ghost claw on the table. With a click, the dry claw that made people hold it shattered. A palm-long key appeared. This key
Obviously only part of it.
[You have obtained the ‘key to the basement of the execution agency headquarters’. This is an important item, please keep it safe as a hunter.]
The most dangerous place is the safest place. No one would have thought that the key to the basement would be on the desk of the deputy commander.
