The tactile feeling is clearly conveyed to Lloyd's body through the shoes. Three years later, Crossbell's streets still give Lloyd an indescribable sense of security.

The station is at the south gate of Crossbell, and it is only a hundred steps to the south, which is the Ursla Road. If you take 20 minutes by bus or 2 or 3 hours on foot, you will be able to reach the best hospital in the Crossbell Autonomous Region, the Medical University of Santa Ursla. To the north, you will find a direct path to the central street of Crossbell.

Walking through the steel gate, Lloyd couldn't help but be stunned by the sight in front of him.

Suffice it to say, the sight in front of him completely shattered what he had introduced to the black-haired man on the train before.

The symbol of Crossbell - Crossbell's Clock. It is still located in the very center of the central square. The new support columns have a metallic sheen. A police officer-like figure is standing in front of the sign, probably the person in charge of the central square.

Other than that, I can only say: a big change. The department store has a new look, and the newly opened guide store falls next to it. The buildings are all brand new, probably in the last three years, right? Three years ago, there was not a single guide car on the street, but now it became commonplace, and just as Lloyd was stunned, a guide car leaped in front of him, and the thick black footsteps made a faint sound of gada gada on the masonry floor.

"That's a huge change in just three years." Listening to all kinds of fragmented and noisy sounds, the flaxen-haired teenager couldn't help but sigh.

The impression of Crossbell is gone, replaced by a brand new and unfamiliar city called Crossbell.

Looking around, a four-story building came into Lloyd's sight.

It's not old, but the color has begun to fade and the gray feels like it. In a cluster of newly-built, shiny and tall buildings, it looks out of place. If the surrounding building is a shiny crystal, then it is a stone that was once beautifully colored.

Still, Lloyd took a liking to it, as it was one of the few buildings he felt familiar with.

In a "strange" city, anything familiar will make people feel good.

"Huh? This mixed building is still well preserved. In the past, the Clos Bell Times magazine was located across the street from it. ”

If the police station doesn't provide dormitories, move here. This thought crept into Lloyd's mind.

"It's almost time." Lloyd muttered to himself as he pulled out the particular letter from the inside pocket of his blue and white track jacket.

"Officer Lloyd Bannings was assigned to the Special Assignments Support Section at Crossbell Police Department Headquarters. Please report to the police headquarters on the appointed date. ”

Looking closely at the time recorded on the thin piece of paper sent by the Personnel Section of the Crossbell Police Department, Lloyd checked his itinerary again. There is not enough time, but it is not urgent.

Merely......

"Special Mission Support Division? It's a name I've never heard before. I don't even have uniforms, so what kind of department is it? ”

Although it was a little unsettling, the police seal on the letter was not forged and should be genuine. I guess it's a new department that was built recently.

Lloyd shook his head vigorously, throwing all these thoughts behind him.

"Forget it - just go and find out. Fortunately, if the location of the police station changes, let's report it immediately. ”

When you are confused, act first. This is one of Lloyd's virtues, or rather, it is one of the virtues that Lloyd inherited from his eldest brother.

If you walk north through the guide store and department store, you will see a beautiful fountain in the distance. This is the administrative district, where the town hall, the police station and the civic library are located. A building called the Orchid Tower is being built further north, so it is being locked down.

Just as politics gives a cold impression, the administrative district is also a bit deserted, with few pedestrians. In fact, ordinary residents rarely come here. People who come here usually go to the library or the administrative district. The former tend to spend a day in the library, while the latter tend to come in a hurry and then walk like a fly.

Police station? The police station in Crossbell is the least visited by residents. Because even if you make a request to the police, they don't bother to solve small incidents, and they can't solve big incidents. With this money and time, why not ask the guerrillas?

When you come to the entrance of the police station, the solemn masonry structure exudes a serious atmosphere. Lloyd tidied up the corners of his clothes at the doorway and strode inside.

The long table at the reception is in front of you. Several benches are lined up on both sides of the road for residents waiting to present their case. It didn't come in handy a few times, though. The whole building tends to be a heavy gray tone, which is not different from what most people think.

Although he has been here a few times, Lloyd's heart is still a little excited at the thought of working here in the future. This feeling is similar to a child hearing his parents say that they will take him to the playground the next day.

Anyway, let's go to the reception first to say hello. With that in mind, Lloyd walked to the reception.

"Hello, welcome to Crossbell Police Station!"

The receptionist noticed him walking towards her and smiled brightly. The light pink girl with two ponytails is wearing a well-fitting police uniform, her face is slightly round, her blue-gray eyes are very beautiful, and her eyelashes are long. If you can sum it up in one sentence, she is a cute girl with a smile and a pink color, and she is more suitable for being a receptionist in a department store than in a serious place like a police station.

Although it is a bit peaceful with the serious atmosphere of the police station, this cute girl can boost the fighting spirit of those new police officers, and can also effectively cure the fatigue of those police officers who have been busy all day. In a sense, this kind of girl is also essential.

"What is the matter with you? Is it to report the crime? The receptionist said this, tilting her head slightly.

"Ah, that ......" Lloyd smiled as she listened to her energetic voice. My name is Lloyd Bannings. From today, will work here. ”

"Ah, I see. Great, it's a new colleague. ”

As she said this, a bright smile appeared on the face of the receptionist. However, she immediately frowned again.

"However, I haven't been notified that someone new is coming today. Are you sure it's the police headquarters, not the garrison? ”

Lloyd nodded, he had confirmed the contents of the letter many times.

"That's right, it's the police headquarters. Because I got my certificate as a search officer at the police academy. ”

"Huh? Did you pass the Investigator Exam?! It's amazing! It's rare for newcomers. ”

The receptionist lady made no secret of her surprise and admiration. Lloyd smiled embarrassedly and scratched his head: "No, nothing, it's just a little luckier." Also, I was the only one who took the test this time. ”

"It's really~~ don't be so modest." Miss receptionist smiled. She is also a member of the police department, and she knows exactly how difficult this exam really is.

"But it's weird, if there's a new person joining, we should be notified of it, right? Well, excuse me, what department were you assigned to? ”
