After walking around the street for most of the day, the city also knew about it during this time, the development of the demon city was far behind the human race, even if it was a first-tier big city, it was not much bigger, so it didn't take much time for the two of them to write down the streets of the entire city.
The two returned to the hotel, had dinner, played cards for a while, chatted about some details of the next action, and went out after seeing that the time was almost there.
Night had already fallen, and the nightlife of the demons was not as colorful as that of the humans, and he had not met a few people after walking for a while, which made the boy breathe a sigh of relief.
The two of them went straight to their destination, which looked like it had long been closed for work, with a fist-sized lock hanging on the closed door, no light in the room, and the plaque on the door that read "Children's Mental Illness Prevention and Research Center" was almost impossible to see in the night.
"They must have brainwashed the trafficked children under the pretext of studying mental illness. The boy looked up at the sign above and said, the magic from Ainia was silently changing his physique, and he had become completely different from before he even noticed.
"Are we going to get those people out?" Ania looked up at the boy, although she had lofty ideals, it was impossible for her to think about others at all times, Ania was just an ordinary good child, let her choose between friends and relatives and strangers, she would undoubtedly choose her own relatives and friends.
"Didn't you say it before you came, there must be a lot of abducted people here, if there are only one or two, it will be counted, if there are too many people, we can't take care of them at all, so this operation can't take them away. The boy said the plan again, thinking of what happened to the kidnapped children, he couldn't help but sigh, "Although I sympathize with them, the Demon King is not invincible after all, and I don't want you to be hurt because of those strange children." Anyway, we got their list of spies lurking in other countries and left, and as for saving those children, we had to leave it to the governments. ”
Ainia smiled and nodded, and walked to the door to take a look: "This is an ordinary magic lock, but there is a warning magic on the door, and this design is quite effective against ordinary thieves." ”
Ainia said as she pressed her little hand on the door, and after a slight fluctuation of magic power, the lock opened on its own, she removed the lock and pushed open the door, and the two walked in together.
After all, it is a place with a glorious appearance, and this villa-like house looks like only two floors from the outside, but in fact, the hidden underground building is much more than the exposed part of the ground. The upper two floors were also unguarded at night, as they were indeed real research institutes, and many of the staff working here were unaware of the hidden secrets.
In order to avoid coincidental opening of the door to the underground facility, the switch is filled with a misleading visual effect, a simple light-distorting effect that is far more useful than masking magic when hiding objects, but it has no effect under the watchful eye of the Demon King Anie.
After using her magic to make sure that there was no one guarding the door, Ainia turned on the switch that led to the underground door.
After stepping into this door, the steps of the two of them involuntarily eased a lot, in order to avoid the strong people sitting here, a large-scale magic scanning investigation was discovered, Ainia did not confirm the situation of the opposite side in detail, so this place is now completely unknown to them.
At this time, it was already two o'clock in the night, and even the evil people who were doing underground work could not work twenty-four hours a day, and although there were people on duty in the underground part of the building, the two of them did not need to worry about encountering ordinary staff except for the patrol officers, and it was revealed that they had sneaked in and caused the operation to be revealed.
Because there was no map, the two of them didn't know where to find the spy list, so they had to search on a carpet, except for the room that clearly stated that the function was not what they were looking for.
The strength of the patrol people is not very strong, but the level of ordinary high-level mages, although Ainia does not dare to scan and detect in a large area, but she still has a certain amount of magic around her to prevent the situation of encountering love around the corner, and this move successfully avoided being hit by the patrol people several times.
The underground part of the building is about four times the size of the above-ground building, and because there is no map, the two of them took a lot of detours and even made a few circles, but finally found a valuable place after half an hour: some rooms where children who had just been trafficked and had not had time to brainwash.
This room is said to be more like a prison, the room is darker than the average room, there is not even a window, many children huddle in the corner of the wall with tears in the corners of their eyes curled up and shivering, some of the children who are asleep are still saying things like "Mom and Dad, I miss you so much", while others who are not asleep and those who are awakened by the sound of the door opening look at the two people at the door in horror, and they scream without even seeing who they are.
Ania quickly activated her magic to block the sound in the room, and then looked at the boy, the boy's face was ugly but his eyes did not waver, he pulled Ania out of the room and closed the door gently, saying nothing.
The two of them continued to take a few steps towards the place they had not walked before the young man whispered, "Let's hurry up." ”
The sooner you find the list, and then you go back and hand over the follow-up to the governments, you can solve the matter more quickly, and these children may be rescued sooner.
Of course, it is also possible that governments can only stop them from continuing to traffick people but not save their children, but at least the teenager himself can find some comfort that he has tried and tried his best to help others while protecting himself and his daughter, and from this point of view he does not need to blame himself for not succeeding in saving others.
Ania understood the boy's thoughts, and she didn't say anything, but quietly increased the range of the magic around her, so as to detect more places and speed up the search.
The decision was undoubtedly the right one, and the two quickly found a room with various papers, which made them happy for a while, even though they had not yet determined whether there was a list of expatriate spies here.
However, when they found that there were only numbers on these documents and no other descriptions, and they needed to look through them a little bit to find them, their faces became ugly.
