To the northwest of Akiyama lies the city of Noyal, and to the southwest of it lies a peculiar wooded area. A rare tree grows here, the black kun tree, which is a temperate deciduous tree species and is very tall. Generally, the main trunk of the black kunmu is seven or eight meters high, and some can reach a height of 10 or even more than 20 meters, but this is not its special place.

The most surprising, or rather frightening, thing about the black kunmu is its dark green, almost black leaves. This is no ordinary black, sunlight cannot pass through it, as if it is absorbed. If you block out the sun with a leaf of black kunmu, you will find that it works better than sunglasses. The thin leaves are like a wall, blocking the sunlight.

The smaller black kun leaves are larger than a human palm, and the larger ones are like a fan. Patches of black kun trees are lined up and flourished, forming an area with almost no sunlight all year round. Looking down from the air, a large area of black pressing.

These trees greedily absorb sunlight and nutrients, leaving no chance of survival to other plants that are smaller than themselves. Under the 6,000-hectare black kun forest, you won't see any vegetation except for a few tenacious weeds. Even people and animals shy away. Only the Dinnicks consider this place their paradise.

On the northern edge of the wooded area lies the town of Xavier. Like the Haruf town of Tigri, it is inhabited mainly by Dynik super-talents, who make up 70% of the town's population.

One-fifth of the town is located within the Black Quinlin, which houses the Dynic Dark Hall (the equivalent of the Haruf Sanctuary), the Energy Quarantine Station, the Tomb of the Eternal Night (a cemetery reserved for the Dynics), some common houses, and a magnificent castle. It belongs to the famous nobles of the Dinike clan and is also the Willish family, from which the town of Xavier derives.

Dynick is a people who value tradition, especially the famous, which has something to do with the dark forces they wield. Since they are the only people who can only use their maximum abilities at night, they are clearly different from other peoples, and it is easy to give the impression of "a bunch of shady guys". So the Dyniks are very united, but also a little blindly xenophobic.

It was just after 9 a.m., and there were very few people on the streets, and most of the people who came out were businessmen, who had to get up early to greet customers, mainly outsiders. Although most of the superhumans have now been integrated into the natural people, there are still some Dynicks who are unwilling to accept such "collusion" and choose to continue to maintain their own schedule, day and night.

A white sedan drove into the town from the west side of the road, and the driver honked his horn to drive away the pedestrians walking in front of him. The residents were disgusted and cast disdainful glances at the car. At this time, the car stopped, and the driver got out of the car and walked to the two people on the side of the road, and he wanted to ask for directions.

When the two men saw the driver coming, they were stunned for a moment, and then showed expressions of disgust. This man they knew, or the people of Dynick, were no strangers to him.

"You're Harif Raymond Dimmit?"

"Calm down," Dimmit said, waving his hand, "I'm here for Dior." The first time I came, I don't know the way, can you tell me how to get to his castle? ”

"Hmph, get out of here, Lady Harru, this is not the place for you." One of them said.

"Just asking for directions, isn't it? I won't be rough on Dior's turf, but I ask you to speak well. ”

"There's nothing to say, go find it in the Black Kunlin by yourself, if you can find it, ha!"

The other said mockingly, walking away with his companion. Dimmit didn't ask, but stood there for a while, waiting for the guide.

From the shadow of the car, black light spiraled up like flowing water, gradually transformed into a human form after growing to a height of one person, and finally dissipated. What appeared in front of Dimmit was a polite old man in a black butler uniform.

"It's too slow, James."

James bowed: "I'm sorry, Mr. Dimmit, I didn't expect you to come so early. ”

"Needless to say, lead the way."

"Yes, please come with me."

With that, James reversed the scene when he had just appeared and disappeared into the shadows. Dimmit also started the car, he could sense James moving, and he followed James's reaction.

When the car drove to the entrance of the Black Kunlin, what appeared in front of Dimmit's eyes was the black Kunmu that covered the sky and the sun, and the entrance of the black hole seemed to suck people in. He paused, then drove in.

*****

Some people say that this is because Astarrot came to this world through the leader of the Diniks, Arid the High Priest of the Night, so the Diniks are loyal to Astarrot and cannot forgive Lady Haru who betrayed Astaroth. But in fact, Dinnick and Harruff were very unfriendly long before that, and even after the formation of Quedren, it still did not improve. The reason is as simple as it is that the nations that worship the sun with the power of light and the people who worship the night with the power of shadow cannot live together peacefully.

Under the black Kunlin, it was an eternal night that defied time, and Dimmit had to turn on all the lights. The roads here are intricate, leading to all the important areas of the forest area, each of which is very smooth, but there are no road signs everywhere, and the sun is not visible, so it is easy for outsiders to get lost here. This is one of the ways the Dyniks have protected their important secrets, and has been used for thousands of years.

Dimmit had heard of the Black Kunmu, and knew that where there were Dinik nobles, there would be such strange trees. Originally, the leaves of the black kun tree would gradually wither after entering late autumn. But they nourish the roots with a special blend of EXP energy, keeping the tree lush for as long as possible to prolong the twisted night. And the Black Kunlin in Xavier Town claims to not wither all year round, and the reason for this is ...... Dimmit didn't want to think about it.

After more than 20 minutes of driving at a low speed in the dark, Dimmit finally saw a gate carved with a moon motif, and a courtyard wall with no end in sight on either side. There is lighting inside and outside the courtyard gate, but it is not a light, but a firelight.

To the left and right of the courtyard gate stand two pillars 3 meters high, with yellow-green flames dancing at the tops. There are many more 2-meter-high, identical columns, spread out at equal distances along the courtyard wall, and the number is not clear in the field of vision. Through the fence of the gate, you can see that the courtyard is also dancing in all directions, stretching into the distance, swallowed by the darkness.

"Follow the yellow firelight, I'll be waiting for you in the hall."

Dimmit heard James's voice, and then James's EXP reaction disappeared, and the door in front of Dimmit was opened, and he continued to move forward with the yellow flame.

Along the way, Dimiit also saw red, green, blue, white and other colors of light, some of which were flames on the pillar of fire, and some of which did not seem to be, jumping, tumbling, from far to near, and gradually fading away, making it difficult to distinguish between reality and fiction. The floating light made Dimmit very uncomfortable - it was all EXP flames, and it was mixed with something else, which made Dimmit's nerves tense and his eyelids jump. Thinking of Dior's alias, Soul Eater, Dimmite subconsciously drove the car faster.

As the yellow light grew brighter, Dimitte finally saw Dior's castle. He was a little skeptical that there was another courtyard wall standing in front of him, because there was no end in sight on either side of the place. The only area that could be illuminated by the dim light of the fire was a part of the area in front of the door.

Dimmit parked the car and walked to the door, when the door made of black kun wood slowly opened with a heavy voice, revealing the twilight hall inside, illuminated by the light of candles. He stepped through the door, stepping onto the blood-red carpet, and the door closed behind him.

On both sides of the carpet were 20 maids, dressed in uniform black and white maid outfits, who were not only similar in height and figure, but also very similar in appearance. On Dimit's right stood James, and on his left stood a maid, her pink and white clothes and mischievous smile, which was noticeably different from the others. Everyone bowed respectfully and saluted in unison.

"Welcome, Master Dimmit."

Dimmit has been running around for many years and has seen many scenes, but this is the first time he has felt this kind of battle, and he was shocked. He adjusted his mood and returned to his usual slightly haughty tone.

"Where's Dior?"

The pink-clothed maid made a very loud "please" gesture, and her voice was high-pitched with exaggerated undulations.

"Master Dior has been waiting in the meeting room for a long time~~~. Lord Dimmit, please ~~~ here! ”

"Tafy, don't make a move that will disgrace Master Dior." James said calmly.

"Got it!"

"I'll lead the way, and you go prepare a drink."

"Okay!"

Taffy spun around in a flash, grabbed the hem of her skirt, bowed, and ran away with a somewhat bouncy step.

"It's rude, Lord Dimmit, please come here."

Dimmitt followed James down the red carpet into the east hallway. Lamps hung on the ceiling of the corridor, but none of them were turned on, replaced by candlesticks hanging on the walls. Under the walls, at intervals there was a work of art, or a statue, or a painting, or something of value, which Dimiit didn't quite understand, but didn't know what it was. He had heard that Christian Dior was a collector, and now he saw that he lived up to his name.

"That woman was also a maid just now?"

"She's the head maid here, second only to me."

"Really? I really didn't feel it. ”

"In the castle, everyone is careful to control their power. If he did, Lord Dimmit would have fought hard. ”

"Heh, you're itching my heart."

"This is the parlor, Lord Dimmit."

James pushed open the door to the living room, and Dio stood inside with a smile and greeted Dimmit.

"Welcome to my castle, you didn't have any trouble along the way, did you?"

"It's just that the place is too hard to find, and it makes me uncomfortable that it's so dark." Dimmit replied.

"Haha, staying here is torture for Mrs. Haru, so let's get down to business."

The two sat down on the sofa in the living room. Dimmit looked around, there were only wall lamps in the house, the light was not very bright, and there were some areas that were not lit at all. He felt that there were a lot of EXP reactions in the room, and there seemed to be other people besides Dior and James, but he couldn't see it.

"What's wrong?" Dior asked.

Dimmit shook his head, casually said "nothing", and took out the box, placed it on the table and opened it.

"That's it, give it a try."

Dio nodded, his fingers between the pale green orb.

"Hopefully a good outcome."

*****

May 5 at 9 a.m.

On Rolov's desk is the report submitted by the General Police Department last night, which is divided into two parts.

The first part mentions a human name: Leia Delen. As of 7 p.m. yesterday, the police conducted an investigation of all the teachers and students at the school and found that she had lost contact, and there were traces of intrusion into the student files of the school's personnel department, and the information about her had been deleted. It is now certain that Leia is the inner line of the black army placed in the school.

Rolov thought about it and decided not to tell Andora about it for the time being, anyway, after a long time, he would naturally find out.

The second part is about the investigation plan of a pharmacy, and the accompanying photos make a considerable impression on Rolov. This is the face of a pharmacy in Lantian Township, which has appeared on the Bureau of Commerce's punishment list several times in the past two years.

The report pointed out that the pharmacy had not been open for nearly a month, and until now it is closed, with no redemption notice, and it does not look like it is being renovated, as if it no longer exists.

However, in the two RX6 scalping cases recently investigated by the police, some of the clues point here. What is even more suspicious is that the pharmacy that has been closed has been closed, but there are witnesses who confirm that there are still people in and out of it.

Police are convinced that this is a transit point for the RX6, at least a storage location. Now that the threat from the Black Forces has been lifted, they hope to conduct a thorough search and ask Rolov to decide.

Supposedly, the police don't need to ask the mayor for instructions when they search somewhere, but this time it's a little different. As early as half a month ago, the police in Lantian Town searched the pharmacy and found nothing. After the incident, the police department asked to re-sort out the clues, but no matter how you look at the pharmacy, it is very suspicious. After reporting to Rolov, the search of the pharmacy was suspended.

In the Arctic Country, in addition to presenting a permit, the police search must also explain the content of the search. If, after the search, the police are unable to complete the instructions, for example, by going to someone's house to find illegal drugs or fugitives, but they do not after a search, then the owner of the searched area can receive high government compensation in accordance with the law.

In particular, the report highlights the current progress of the investigation and the need for searches. All this was fine, but Rolov still thought.

Perhaps the influence of the black army has not been eliminated, and it should have been agreed to immediately, which also made Rolov hesitate. There can be no fault with the police investigation, but ...... Will there be a case?

After thinking about it again and again, Rolov still picked up his mobile phone and called a special detachment.

"Monitor this pharmacy and cooperate with the police after discovering the abnormality."

Leo was in a bad mood. Not to mention that yesterday's injuries are not yet healed, search and surveillance or something is completely police work, right?

"It's not enough for the police alone, we need your help."

Faced with Leo's question, Rolov replied this way, but it was not enough to convince Leo.

"That RX6 or something, it's drugs, right? How can we possibly identify? ”

"Who said you had to identify? All you have to do is keep an eye on the people in the store. If the previous police investigation was not wrong, there should still be an RX6 in the pharmacy by now. ”

"Then why don't you just let the police in and look for it?"

"Of course the police are going, but it's the same as last time. I always felt that this pharmacy was not so easy to deal with. ”

"Shall we go and use it?"

"The role of the police is to scare them and make them feel in danger. If they do something, it's your turn. Because you're not a cop after all, even if you mess up, it's easy for me to deal with. ”

"To put it bluntly, it will reduce your trouble......"

"Understand, let's go. Lu Wei, the chief of the Criminal Investigation Section of Lam Tin Police Station, is your contact person, do you know the contact information? ”

Leo took out his phone and looked at it, "Yes." ”

"Just ask him anything. Another point, although you are the captain, in terms of experience, Akeya is more abundant, and you learn more from others. Akeya too, if it's necessary for action, just tell Leo. ”

As he spoke, Rolov grabbed Leo and Akeya's hands and shook them together. Leo glanced at Arkya and turned his head away. Akya didn't look away, but his gaze was tinged with contempt, and the person in front of him was far from being his boss.

"Alright, alright, we got it, Lord Rolov."

Andola, who was standing in the back, came out of the round and patted the two on the shoulders and said with a smile.

"Don't be staring, let's go."

Andora pushed the two to the door, and before she could reach out, someone outside pushed the door open, rushed in, and bumped into Andora's arms.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!"

Breaking in was Rolov's female secretary, Christy Anur, who was apologizing to Andora and scrambling to put the glasses that had fallen from the bridge of her nose to her chest. Roloof knocked on the table and asked Christie to come over, and Andora led Leo and Akya out the door.

"How many times have I said that if you have something urgent, you have to knock on the door, this is the rule!" Rolov reprimanded.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Mr. Rolov!"

After another series of apologies, Christie smoothed her blue overalls, straightened her neckline, and pushed her glasses.

"It's really important."

"Say it."

"Mr. Vidkan Sarudo, who had made an appointment and came from Cuaiser, had already disembarked from the plane last night. Because I heard that you were busy, I didn't dare to disturb. ”

Rolov suddenly remembered something and patted his head vigorously.

"Ahh How did I forget about this? It's been a busy ...... the past two days Where is he now? ”

"Stayed at the Beautiful Laurel Hotel. He said if you have time, I'd like to ask you for a favor. ”

"What's wrong?"

"Well, his daughter ran away."

"What?"
