Chapter 87: Disappearances
What's more, in the process of imitating humans, Xiao Kuroko also noticed one thing, the longer the food stayed in her eyes, the frequency of the movement of the "black matter" in her mouth would increase, so that she had more time to understand the properties of the "black matter". Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ info Also, the longer the food stays in your mouth, the longer you feel its aroma, the more delicious it will be added to when you eat it. Is that feeling an illusion? The subtle difference between right and wrong, Xiao Heizi can't determine.
"Okay, I'm not going to tease you. After all, you looked like that back then...... I was shocked when I saw it, but for some reason, it made me understand you a little better. β
"Well, my plate is empty now, and Luz sees it and knows what to do next. β
"Yes, yes, Miss Cute Beast. β
Luz took the plate that Elaine had asked for her, and it was filled with succulent slices of freshly grilled, juicy meat, the grill's reticulation beautifully imprinted on the surface. With a lowered face and a knife and fork in her hand, the movements looked jerky, and Luz looked at the appearance of the little black, snickering secretly at her cuteness.
Luz opened her mouth to talk to the little black again:
"Major Kadar's troops have not found the whereabouts of the black beast this week. The current beast is the main suspect in the 'Beast Disappearance Incident', and may also be the culprit in another incident. β
"Another incident?"
"In fact, Major Kadar's troops are not just dealing with the 'Disappearance of the Beast'. The Imperial Government seldom gives orders of that kind of unitary nature, except in very special circumstances, because the emergence of a new unit with special independence is tantamount to weakening the combat power of the original unit. What's more, Major Kadar's troops are still separated from the army that "sticks to the border area", and "sticking to the border" to prevent the original breed of beasts from the Black Continent from crossing into the territory of the country is something that the empire attaches great importance to. The empire is well aware of this, and has also weakened "the combat power of the frontier troops, and it is conceivable that more serious things will definitely happen at home." β
"Abandon external strife and consolidate the domestic situation first. It seems to have happened from time to time in the history of mankind. β
"The little black man is very smart, I'm surprised. β
"Bah, I want meat. β
Luz handed over the plate of fragrant pieces of meat again.
"So Xiao Heizi wants to know what the incident is that made the empire give up part of the border combat power and come to the domestic city to investigate?"
"The Empire has set up troops on the border to prevent the invasion of the beasts, in the name of defending the assets that belong to humanity, and in essence the ultimate purpose is to defend humanity. Then the specially set up Major Kadar troops, saying that they are defending the safety of the beasts and preventing the loss of human assets, of course, cannot be the first task to deal with, and will do so in order to conceal the real purpose. It can be seen that after the real purpose is exposed, it will definitely cause panic among the people, so it is necessary to investigate secretly. β
"Where did the little black man get those human common sense, you really have a lot of secrets, do you still hide a lot of things that haven't been told to me, such as 'your dream'?"
"Don't ask all those frivolous little things, didn't you just tell me what Major Kadar's real mission is?"
"Judging from the tone of your voice, you are actually imitating my 'clichΓ©'. It's bad, but I don't hate it, but I like your learning ability. You have worked hard to study and deserve to be rewarded, so I will tell you the answer...... β
"Phew...... Whatever you want. β
Luz's initial agreement with Major Kadar was to share information, but not to interfere with each other, and to investigate their own missions, but after the little black man was captured, Luz discussed with Major Kadar again to ensure the success of the little black man's recapture plan. The final deal was that Luz agreed to contribute the tracking ability of his "meow" ability to find the Black Dove, but in exchange, Major Kadar would reveal the contents of the secret mission hidden beneath the surface, and assist Luz in providing force.
On the surface, it seems that Luz has gained a lot from this deal, and Major Kadar suffers, but the major has the pressure of completing the time limit of the mission, so he has to agree with a bitter face. However, Major Kadar made an additional condition that Luz stop pursuing his previous gaffe at the Beep Woo Casino and forget about it.
At that time, Major Kadar revealed the hidden mission to Luz, which mentioned matters related to the investigation of the "disappearance of the beast", and it was explained that the order of the troop action issued in response to the mission was indeed not only dealing with that mission. Major Kadar's forces are essentially investigating another incident at the same time, which is called: "The Disappearance of the Human Race".
It was a peculiar case against humans, and it began to happen a few weeks before the rainy season approached in the trading city of Ygtrasil. The "Disappearance of the Human Race" was initially thought to be the same case as the "Disappearance of the Beast", as the modus operandi that caused the incident was too similar. However, a slightly targeted analysis of the incident can reveal that the two cases are very different in subject.
After all, the final result of the incident, one disappeared as a beast and the other disappeared as a human, and the difference between the two can be seen according to common sense, but in order not to cause panic, I had to dispatch troops in the name of the "Beast Disappearance Incident", hoping to assist the people who cooperate with the investigation to provide clues, screen suitable relevant items from the clues, and shorten the time for the investigation to be identified. Although in that name, for a city like a trading city, where beasts are the main traders, it will become a major variant that will affect the overall market mechanism, but it is still less to lose than to let another "disappearance of the human race" spread.
Trading cities are affected by the "disappearance of the beast", at most the relevant categories of goods, and the market temporarily shrinks, and if it is affected by the "disappearance of the human race", the scope of the impact will be expanded to the operation of the entire market.
If human beings were afraid of the incident and came to visit the city timidly, then the city function of "human beings pursuing desires" would be missing, and the huge losses would not be a burden that the empire could bear.
"Got it, so is Luz going to help track it down?"
"No, Major Kadar has made a deal with me, so I promise to forget about his gaffe at the casino. Without that handle, I can no longer ask for assistance in investigating the case and unilaterally obtain information that pleases me. We won't talk to each other again. β
