"Yingying, come and take a look...... How about my dress? ”

Listening to Han Shiwan's shout, Huang Ying hurriedly 'lifted' the kissing gesture and responded: "Come right away!" ”

Huang Ying had an innocent expression on her face, staring at Lu Ran, who had not been able to ease her mind at all and her cheeks were flushed, and whispered:

"Thank you for your phone."

Immediately, Huang Ying turned around and ran to the interior of the clothing store to discuss the problem of clothes with Han Shiwan.

Lu Ran, who was completely blindfolded, was able to come back to his senses after a minute.

"This ...... Am I too charismatic? Or is there another reason? ”

Lu Ran stood in front of a mirror and looked at it for a long time, and then compared Huang Ying's goddess-level appearance...... In the end, one conclusion was drawn - [for another reason].

"The man in black, one tall and one short, was very strange just now...... Could it be that Huang Ying is deliberately avoiding them, deliberately using the 'kissing concealment' routine commonly used in movies to avoid the search of the other party? There is a possibility...... But Huang Ying's photo, I uploaded it to [Hell Road], and it was checked by the censorship team in Hell, and there is no problem. ”

Lu Ran looked at the distance of the pedestrian street again, and could vaguely see a tall man walking through the crowd, and the two walked straight without any pause.

…………

Time spent outside the home passing quickly.

After a whole day of shopping, Han Shiwan and Huang Ying became completely good sisters, and even isolated Lu Ran.

As soon as they got home in the evening, the two even huddled together in the bathroom to take a bath, often laughing and even occasionally coquettish.

At the same time as the bathroom door opened, in the mist, two beauties in thin summer pajamas came out together, and Lu Ran's face was flushed.

The two of them squeezed into the big bed in the master bedroom, holding a big box of Heluxue ice cream buckets, you and I ate them one by one.

Lu Ran had no choice but to stay alone in the dormitory, planning to use his free time to browse the 'Hell Forum'.

Not long after turning on the computer, I could hear Han Shiwan's screams coming from the master bedroom, as if the two girls were watching a horror movie.

"Okay...... When Sister Wan'er was in college, she had a lot of friends. After graduating, I was always alone, so it's nice to have a companion. ”

Just when Lu Ran was about to open the Steam game community, someone suddenly popped up a video window.

"Detective Yan!?"

After Lu Ran confirmed that the bedroom doors and windows were locked, he clicked on the video connection.

I saw Detective Yan on the other end of the video sitting in a top suite in a hotel.

"I just had a meeting tonight, so there's nothing to do...... Just ask about your situation. What do you think? Has there been any progress? ”

"Yes."

"Oh...... So fast? I thought you hadn't figured out the direction yet. Detective Yan said with some surprise: "Tell me about your current progress, right?" ”

Lu Ran immediately told all the process of going deep into the self-immolating old lady's house and getting the "photo", and Detective Yan on the other side of the screen frowned.

"You guy, you're really moving fast...... It's only been four days, and you've got a "photo" from the photographer. However, this can also put you in danger gradually. When you get a "photo", you also get the attention of the "photographer...... If you're active in a short period of time, he might come to your door personally. ”

"Detective Yan mean to let me stop for a while?"

"Hmm...... Take a break for a while and don't do extra movement for at least a week. As for the female students who had an affair with the teacher who died in the crash, you can borrow the archives of the office to look up information and find out about the situation in advance, but don't make too many moves. ”

"Got it." Lu Ran was a little relieved, but he didn't expect Detective Yan to make a special trip to deal with him.

"I'm looking for you here today, mainly to explain one thing to you...... Because I was in a hurry last time, I only explained to you the basic information about "difference". Tonight for about an hour, I'm going to give you basic information about HQ...... Because, recently, the "photographer" has been extremely active, and the headquarters has sent two "investigators" to intervene in this matter. ”

"Investigator?"

"That's right, 'low-level investigator', but definitely better than you in terms of strength. Check the room to make sure no one is eavesdropping, and then grab a notebook and get ready to record the relevant information. ”

"Okay."

"The [headquarters] in my mouth is also called the [Intermediate Bureau]."

"Central Administration Bureau ......" Lu Ran felt that he had heard this word somewhere, but he couldn't remember it clearly.

"The middle is a symbol of neutrality, and it also symbolizes the middle layer!"

"Neutral? Interlayer...... Could it be that the world we live in belongs to the intermediate interaction area of other different worlds? ”

"You're quick to understand!" Yan Musen praised.

"Haha, there used to be many similar settings for playing games and watching anime. Is that really the case? ”

That's right, that's the basic idea...... However, when it comes to the essential meaning of this, it is more complicated. Now is not the time to explain the World Architecture to you, it is best to understand it yourself in your growth path. You just need to know the concept of "in-between". ”

"Eun."

"The fundamental purpose of the existence of the [Intermediate Authority] is to "maintain balance", and any alien who comes into our world, or some human beings who have problems with their own problems, must be strictly monitored. In particular, when dealing with such a threatening existence as "aliens", it will be decided at the top to eliminate them without disturbing basic social order. ”

"Hmm."

"This time, the two "investigators" dispatched by the headquarters belong to the [Mystery Investigation Division] and have the ability of the Mystery Department."

"[Mystery Investigation Bureau]...... Mystery? There are also some more terms that Lu Ran doesn't quite understand.

"Occult abilities refer to some divine witchcraft, and they can often use the power of the gods to perceive some subtle clues, even images from the past, in order to speed up the targeting of the "photographer"...... Of course, when fighting, you can also attach some of the power of the gods to their flesh. ”

"It's amazing."

"Borrowing power, naturally it is easy to control without its own strength...... [Mystery Investigation Division] often introduces newcomers, and the reason is that the mortality rate is too high. Not killed by monsters, but sacrificed themselves. ”

"This ...... However, it is a good thing that two "investigators" intervened, right? Everyone is also a colleague. ”

"Not so good...... These "investigators" are quirky and old-fashioned, and you might be in danger if you run into them. ”

Lu Ran was taken aback, "Dangerous? Am I not one of you? It's only a part-time job, though. ”

"Your situation is known only to the boss and a few people...... To be reasonable, the [Intermediate Administration] is not allowed to hire personnel related to other forces. The reason why I recruited you was actually introduced to the boss, and your existence has a unique meaning...... But this layer of meaning does not come to the fore at this time. ”

Lu Ran had a feeling of being cheated, and immediately responded: "That is to say, my identity is not recognized by others in the headquarters." ”

"It's right not to be recognized...... If you take out your work card, most employees won't bother you...... However, these "investigators" who have more serious beliefs are not clear. You have to be careful not to be targeted by them. ”
