At the police station on Sunday, several male police officers sighed helplessly, helpless as if waiting for someone to rescue. In the distance, the crisp sound of the heels of their shoes hitting the floor tiles couldn't help but make the men's eyebrows stretch. I saw a graceful policewoman at the end of the backlit aisle, striding a meteor, with the demeanor of a supermodel walking the catwalk, and the blue document rack on her chest blocked the involuntary vision of the others in the department.

"Sister Heng, come and talk to her, let's have a few of them, we can't coax you to speak." It was Liao Xingfan, a hairy guy with a thin figure, who spoke, and between the movements of his lips, the yellowed velvet on the side of his mouth shook slightly, and the brand-new uniform was more like a newcomer who had not been on the job for a long time. Saying this, his eyes drooped and his expression was sad, "How come it happens to be this little girl's house, alas, obviously we stayed there for a while during the day, but I didn't expect something to happen at night." ”

Xu Mengheng was wearing a simple police uniform at this time, but he could give people a glimpse of his slender figure in the autumn and winter season. She bowed slightly, handed over the object in her hand to the junior, squatted down in front of Tingting, smiled faintly but her eyes were dark, and her teeth were hidden, "Little Tingting, mourn." ”

Tingting is just a primary school student who is about to graduate, but she has experienced such a terrible crime scene as yesterday, she can't quickly come back from her fear, and she will ignore anyone who asks, except for Xu Mengheng. The magician sister in front of her was like the embodiment of justice, which could give her a little sense of security, so she immediately threw herself into the arms of the policewoman's sister and cried wantonly.

"Cry out, don't suppress your feelings." Xu Mengheng hugged Tingting tightly and stroked his trembling back, but his eyes glared at the silent male policemen around him.

Liao Xingfan understood and immediately whispered to his colleagues, "Let's go, leave it to Sister Heng here, don't disturb them." Let's go help Wang Zi'an, I guess he's in a hurry right now. In this way, Tingting hid in Xu Mengheng's arms for a long time, and finally when she cried so much that she had no strength, she hesitated to raise her haggard face.

Xu Mengheng maintained a posture of embrace, and he was also thoughtful. Yesterday, she deliberately went to the vicinity of Tingting's house to check to make sure that there was nothing abnormal, she really couldn't imagine why Zhan Tan and Emperor Xiang suddenly decided to attack the target, and what she didn't expect was that these two people who were at the peak of their strength in the Red Regiment would die together with the target of extermination.

Just like a placement exam, magicians also need to pass a magic test to evaluate their own strength. Magicians with different attributes have their corresponding level evaluation system, and the level of magicians is mainly obtained through the strength of the magician's soul power, supplemented by the destructive power, precision, duration and many other factors of magic. The ranking is quite easy to understand, with a total of one to nine stars, and there are three sub-ranks between two or two stars, which are divided into beginner, middle, and high levels.

Five years ago, Xu Mengheng joined the Red League only three months ago, and it coincided with the new group of middle-level cadres, and the pre-existing senior cadres were given code names and spells according to the strength of the members at that time. Xu Mengheng, who was still a student at the time, was ranked at the bottom because he only had the strength of the three-star initial position, while Onodera Shinri, who was in the four-star initial position, and Shota Horikita, who was in the three-star high position, were at the middle level. However, there was a drawback in the direction of time in this ranking, and soon Onodera and Horikita became the leaders of the middle cadres due to their rapid progress, and they had the strength to press the first "Huiguang" in the middle cadres. In particular, Onodera Shinri is not only a five-star high-ranking magician, but also a demon master, who can command multiple poisons, and his personal strength may be comparable to that of a high-ranking cadre and a wide eye. However, the rankings of the Cadres have not been reordered as a result, as it is easy to make mistakes in the mission due to the change of code names and the exchange of spells.

Therefore, when Xu Mengheng learned that Onodera and Horikita, two powerful magicians who were at the peak of the middle cadres and were ready to enter the ranks of senior cadres at any time, both died here, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "No matter how powerful a magician is, he is still flesh and blood." Thinking like this, she took out a pen and paper from the desk in front of her, and said to Tingting with a serious expression, "Xiao Tingting, although I know that you are sad now, but when it comes to the resolution of this case, I still have the necessary questions to ask you, I'm sorry, I hope you can forgive me." ”

The drunkard didn't mean to drink, Xu Mengheng was the "accomplice" of the two murderers, how could she not see the whole story? Therefore, the victim's description of the crime scene in this forensic collection is far from being as simple as ordinary people think. An hour after the incident last night, Xu Mengheng arrived and learned about the results of the scene, so she immediately notified her boss in the red group, Guangmu. However, just now, Hirome gave her another directive, requiring her to gain the trust of the little girl who survived, and brainwash her into being at her mercy through verbal brainwashing. At this time, Xu Mengheng was a little entangled, whether she was telling a big lie to an innocent girl, she felt a little unbearable.

At this time, Tingting looked around blankly, and after being sure that there was no one, he immediately retreated away from the other side of the sofa, "Yes, but I also have questions for you after this." ”

"Okay, you can ask casually in a moment."

There was a little silence, and Tingting's pale cheeks moved slightly, and he opened his mouth to talk about the crime process he had witnessed with his own eyes yesterday. Her voice was staccato and the rustle of writing on the side was continuous.

Long.

"The man in black, one can use ice attribute magic, and the other uses fire and has obvious killing intent, is there anything else?" Xu Mengheng buried his head in the record.

"If there's anything else...... Still, the man in black, with a hoarse voice, pulled out a piece of black metal, which turned into an ice-carved spear. When he died, the ice melted. ”

Xu Mengheng pretended to have a surprised expression, thought for a while, and said to Tingting, "That thing may be a spell, it is a prohibited item, and if it is not an armament magician and a high-star professional magician, it is almost impossible to possess it." You see, our policemen's spells are all standard, and the whole mile is the same. She pulled out a pistol from her waist and explained, "The principle of this spell is very simple, what kind of magician will shoot what kind of bullet. For example, I'm a water attribute, and a bullet is a water bomb. But the metal you're describing is no ordinary spell weapon, and it can't possibly be owned by us public officials. ”

This is an obvious clue, Tingting hurriedly asked, "What does that sister mean...... The murderer could only be one of these two people, right? ”

"Not necessarily." Xu Mengheng used a smile to hide his uneasiness when he lied, "Maybe it's the current person in power, Sakurai Daichi, who gave some people a licensed spell equipping certificate. After all, such a thing as a spell is dangerous, and those in power must know about it. Oh, by the way, don't tell anyone about it. ”

Tingting didn't answer immediately, at this time she was falling into a violent storm of thoughts, and muttered secretly in her heart, "The person in power? Wasn't it the Red Regiment who came to assassinate my father? Previously, she recalled Leung's letter, and although the sentence did not directly state who had the plan, she took it for granted that the mastermind behind the case was the same person who wanted to take Leon's eyes. And now Xu Mengheng's words are undoubtedly telling her, " The person in power is the initiator of this case. "Unless there is a possibility, that there are people in the Red Regiment who hold important positions around those in power, that such important information has been obtained, so that Liang Leon can inform her in advance. However, Tingting thought that this possibility was most likely untenable, but he was more convinced of the conjecture of Xu Mengheng's identity. So, she raised her face, "Sister Mengheng, now I can ask questions." ”

After Xu Mengheng nodded, Tingting took a deep breath, "Actually, sister, you already know the identities of these two murderers, right?" But why not? ”

Xu Mengheng was shocked when he heard this, but he didn't admit it, "Huh? How is that possible? If I had the ability to know, I would have told the truth to the people and prepared to arrest them. ”

Tingting's face was disappointed, "My sister is so protective of me, I thought you would tell the truth." Alas, actually, you have an unsightly identity, don't you? ”

Such a straightforward question made Xu Mengheng completely unsure of how to answer, as if she was penetrated by the little girl in front of her, so that she could not continue to continue the lie, and after being silent for a long time, she finally nodded, "Hmm." ”

"Sister, you are really a member of the Red Group." Tingting breathed a sigh of relief, she had been thinking about the meaning of the policewoman's sister's abrupt sentimental philosophy at home, and at the same time doubting it. Now three points guess, seven points bet, really let her bet right.

Hearing Tingting directly call out the name of his organization, Xu Mengheng completely subverted his understanding of this case, and instead threw many questions to Tingting, "How did you know?" And the white roses planted in front of your house, could it be that your father is a member of our organization? Then why did the higher authorities send men to kill you? ”

However, Tingting shook her head with a sour wry smile in response, Xu Mengheng could only stop there, she also knew that the little girl in front of her would not know more than her, otherwise there would not be such a tragedy. But now that the lie has been revealed, she feels that she can no longer bewitch Tingting, and she can't make him recognize the person in power Sakurai Daichi as her father's killer, and it is pointless to continue to deceive and brainwash.

"Do you want to be honest with her? To say or not to say? Xu Mengheng was constantly entangled in her heart, she was tired of the organization's dirtier and dirtier methods, but she was unwilling to stop the hopes of everyone in the Red League in her own hands and destroy the organization's efforts. So, she decided to make a decision by flipping a coin.

Looking at a coin lying in his palm, Xu Mengheng smiled from the bottom of his heart, "It seems that before I died, I did something against the organization." With that, she knelt down towards Tingting with guilt.

According to Xu Mengheng's confession, although her boss Guangmu ranked last among the eight senior cadres, he was the most appreciated by the founder, and was the direct subordinate of the Venerable Zhonghe who was in charge of armaments. Among the three founders, the relationship between Venerable Zhonghe and Venerable Baohe, who was in charge of finances, was extremely tense, and Venerable Taihe, who was in charge of organizational discipline, nominally watched the two of them, but in fact still helped to neutralize them. This led to the fact that the senior cadres under the Venerable Baohe were excluded and criticized by many in the organization, and there were also many discords with other senior cadres.

In August of this year, His Holiness Zhonghe formulated the policy of the "Black Factory", the specific content of which was known only to the three founders and a very small number of senior officials, and even Guangmu was not allowed to be informed. Since then, however, the organization has delegated an average of monthly assassination missions, mostly targeting civilians, which is unbelievable.

However, after the failure of this assassination mission, Gao Gan Hiromu received a direct order from the Taihe Venerable, asking Zhonggan Jian to inform the survivor Tang Xianting that the murderer was hired, and the hired person was the current ruler, Sakurai Daichi. The purpose of this is to stir up revenge in the hearts of the survivors and use it for the organization.

When Xu Mengheng confessed here, Tingting interrupted her and said, "If I really don't know anything, I probably really fell for my sister." Then Tingting helped Xu Mengheng up from the ground and helped her rub her knees, "Why did my sister tell me this?" Obviously the organization you work for wants to kill me, but not only do you not help, but you also treat me so honestly, why is this? ”

"There's no why." Xu Mengheng stroked his lower abdomen and lowered his head, "The distance is different, no matter what it looks like in the long run, I only know that you are innocent at the moment and don't deserve to die." ”

"Okay, thanks." Tingting nodded, "Sister, since even the founder has ordered me to be a person, can you let me join the Red Regiment?" And he said to them, "I have listened to you, and now I am dead set on the organization, how about it?" ”

"Do you want to seek revenge on them?"

"Hmm."

"Absolutely not!" Xu Mengheng didn't expect Tingting to really have such an idea, and immediately refused, "Although I confessed to you everything I knew about the organization, it doesn't mean that I am willing to let you ruin it and ruin this place that once gave me hope." Besides, what can you do with your slender little body? ”

Tingting also knew that she couldn't do anything now, but she couldn't accept the facts from others' mouths, and her full of grievances made her use all her strength to throw Xu Mengheng down on the sofa, "I know! But what can be done? Who will bear the burden of my father's death? Could it be that the two murderers turned to ashes and it was over? I will definitely find what you call His Holiness Neutralization, and I will torture him to death! ”

The girl in front of her showed a fierce expression that she had never seen before, which made Xu Mengheng's heart sour, even if she was a gentle and kind child, after experiencing the cruel reality, she would be filled with hatred and become irritable and angry. But she was powerless about it, "Xiao Tingting, give up." Who instigated this matter is still inconclusive, do you want to retaliate indiscriminately? There are also a lot of amiable people in the Red Group. Realizing that this level of persuasion could not stop Tingting, Xu Mengheng talked about the grand dream at the beginning of the establishment of the Red League.

"Little Tingting, maybe you don't know. The current world, this society, is unfair. Different species of human beings from hundreds of countries around the world gather here, and without the common enemy of the same foreign world, various contradictions will soon be revealed and amplified in a comfortable life. Just as whites looked down on blacks throughout history, there are racists in our time. And now those in power, with the acquiescence of inaction, have allowed this immoral violation of human rights. But how can we, as victims, let them go for their own sake? We are the masters of this land, but now the people of the Star Head, who have received our favor, are taking over the lords, treating us as grass mustards, oppression, and hostility, which seems to me to be the greatest evidence of revenge. Most of the members of our Red Regiment are victims, some of them are blacks and some are whites, and they all want their compatriots to have the right to live on an equal footing with others on this land. I have not been harmed by social injustice, but how can I do nothing as I witness my friends and relatives die of depression? They regret and resent until they die, they have no chance to display their talents, or their efforts day after day have become someone else's wedding dress. If we want to do something for social equality, sacrifice is inevitable, but the birth of a great organization cannot be achieved overnight, and there will always be some left-right ideas and unreasonable measures. Just like this mission, your father was innocently killed, both legally and morally, it is wrong, and I believe that most people in the organization do not want to see this outcome. However, even if this mission is wrong, its ultimate purpose is to serve all our compatriots of the Chinese bloodline, and your father will eventually be remembered as a fierce hero. So, Tingting, I hope you don't have too much resentment towards the rest of the Red Regiment, and maybe, when the day comes, the person who secretly murdered your father will personally kneel in front of you, let you vent, and apologize for your sins with death. In this case, can you put aside the grudge for a while and wait? You are too young to take on such a big responsibility. ”

Tingting patiently listened to Xu Mengheng's tirade, but she couldn't make too many waves in her heart, she didn't know the black social phenomenon in Xu Mengheng's mouth. Even in school, most black- and Indian-faced students are unwelcome, they are alone, have few friends, and their long-term inferiority complex makes their communication with their fellow citizens seem raw and barren. And a person of Chinese descent like herself, although she was not obviously discriminated against, she did feel the extreme superiority of the Star Head student. Those star-headed students are no different from the Chinese people in the country, but most of them have four-character names, and they try their best to draw a line with other students, like an eagle entering a chicken coop, and they have to stand on a stake to stand proudly on everyone. The school also takes care of Xingshou students in all aspects, and the language class not only learns English, but also Japanese, and Japanese is learned together with ancient Chinese and Chinese. Not only that, but the Japanese course is very difficult and communicative, and by the sixth grade, most of the students who have achieved excellent results are able to communicate in Japanese on a daily basis. I don't know what about other schools, but at least that's the school atmosphere. After Tingting learned the origin of the world pattern from the mouth of the third master, he couldn't understand that the people of the Chinese descent were the saviors of the world, and they accepted refugees from all over the world, but they did not get the respect they deserved, but the Xingshou people stood in the most shining place and received the most praise. She may be able to agree with some of Xu Mengheng's views, but she must not forgive this kind of moral kidnapping that stands on the commanding heights of the nation, can she sacrifice the lives of innocent people for the bright future of her compatriots? In that case, wouldn't everyone be an accomplice to the murderer, and what kind of selfishness would the so-called bright future consist of?

"What a high-sounding statement." Tingting's expression was cold, and his teeth were clenched, "Since you don't hesitate to escalate the problem to a racial contradiction, you have to convince me to give up revenge." Okay, then I'll give up, but what do you do next? Sister Mengheng. ”

Xu Mengheng breathed a long sigh of relief, and then heard the second half of Tingting's sentence, and then wondered, "What to do?" ”

Tingting stuck to Xu Mengheng's side, felt out the pistol-shaped spell on his waist, aimed the muzzle of the gun at himself, and stroked the trigger with his index finger, "Sister, you said that a magician of any attribute can shoot bullets of the same attribute." So what can an ordinary person like me shoot? ”

"Don't be kidding, put your pistol down. This is very dangerous, even for ordinary people, the power is about the same as that of an airsoft gun. ”

"Oh, that can kill me, that's exactly what my sister wants." Tingting smiled bitterly like this, and was about to press the trigger.

Xu Mengheng was frightened, and hurriedly wrapped the body of the gun with water magic before Tingting pressed it, and scolded, "What are you doing? Crazy? Even if you force you to die, I can't agree to it. ”

"I didn't force me to die, I just fulfilled my sister's wish."

"What are you talking about, I didn't say anything wish, and how can my wish be for you to die?"

"Really? Since the Red Regiment sent someone to kill me, the upper echelons will definitely let you clean up this mess. The first thing you should do is not to let you end me? Oh, is it because this incident has attracted a lot of social attention, and I don't dare to let you act rashly? But no matter what the reason, in the eyes of the Red League, I always have a reason to live, and that is to work for the organization. And sister, you have now deprived me of this right, isn't this equivalent to letting me die? Tingting's eyes looked straight at Xu Mengheng, making the latter's soul humble.

"It's not like this, it's not like this. Even if you don't join, I won't hurt you. Xu Mengheng hurriedly shook her head and explained, but she realized that it was just an unrealistic joke, and she was powerless to refute Tingting's point of view. It is absolute to let Tingting join the Red Group, if he is refused, even if he doesn't do it himself, there will definitely be other middle cadres who will come after a while. Xu Mengheng was quite shocked that she actually missed this point, and she was still woken up by a childish elementary school student, as a thoughtful criminal policeman, she was ashamed. Thinking of this, Xu Mengheng endured the sadness in his heart and said coldly, "Tingting, I didn't expect you to be able to see this dark and boring reality better than me at the moment." However, I still care more about the safety of the entire Red Regiment than your life. So, sorry, you'd better die. ”

"Well, I didn't think I'd be able to live anyway." Tingting said expressionlessly.

Xu Mengheng's heart was sour, she couldn't imagine what kind of expression a young child had when she said these death-defying words, because she couldn't see clearly in front of her, and tears had long been filled under the bloodshot whites of her eyes.
