122 Doom Night
I didn't expect to meet a child younger than myself in such a dangerous place, I was surprised, even if this girl was standing in front of me, I couldn't help but guess that maybe it was just that she was immature in appearance, and her real age was already an adult. So I subconsciously enabled the intelligence identification function of the magic pattern, but it was stopped by the other party in advance.
"Please, please don't just peep at others...... It's rude, very rude. Dorothy said.
When she said this, I was immediately ashamed, and my ears burned so hot that I couldn't speak. I also knew that it was rude, but when I used this ability before, no one stopped me, even in the base of the Security Bureau, and I used it quietly a few times.
Although Billy vaguely reminds everyone to pay attention to his privacy, in order to satisfy his own selfish desires, he still finds various reasons to ignore it, thinking that no one can see it.
The girl in front of me pointed this out sharply, and immediately made me feel that my filthiness was being exposed in broad daylight. I've always been cautious, and I rarely face such situations, so the feeling of discomfort is particularly serious.
I stole a glance at the people around me, who were not enemies, but comrades who were about to fight together, and now they were all looking at me, which made me feel even more stressed. I don't know if it's my own illusion, there seems to be some strange emotion hidden in these sights.
I looked at Tomie a little bewildered, for fear that she would look at me the same way. What reassured me was that she took the initiative to hold my hand, her eyes were open, and she supported me in a wordless voice.
"Yes, I'm sorry." I felt my throat dry and had a hard time saying it to Dorothy.
"Well, don't do this next time, we're not enemies." Dorothy said, crouching down in front of Ballerina, covering his broken leg with her hands.
As if the bent metal bar had been brought back to its original shape, the deformed calf was restored at a speed visible to the naked eye, and in less than thirty seconds, by the time Dorothy withdrew her hand, the ballet bear was completely gone.
He let go of the arm that was pressing on my shoulder and moved briskly in place as if it hadn't been hurt.
"It's a superpower, isn't it? Dorothy. Tomie said.
"Yes, yes...... I can repair wounds for a certain period of time. ”
Tomie seemed to have identified some kind of information and smiled meaningfully. Dorothy stared at her openly, and the two did not talk further.
"We're tired, do you have a place to rest?" Tomie asked the people around him.
At this time, someone separated the crowd in the corridor, it was an Asian man with glasses and a Sven appearance, with an ordinary appearance, but from the posture, demeanor and straight formal attire, he revealed a meticulous personality. Exactly like the impression of an office worker working as an administrative assistant, anyone will guess at first glance that he is a deputy in charge.
Sure enough, he disbanded them in a calm and rigid tone, and asked us to go upstairs with him. Judging by the accent, it should be a domestic person. I asked about it, and sure enough, I got it. He did not participate in the previous decoy operation, it was an additional backup, and the national side of the Security Service temporarily transferred him to the local area as the coordinator of this operation, as well as the resident member of the city's security bureau branch for some time to come.
Although it is unknown what the reason for the incident was, it seems that the Security Service has taken a fresh look at the operation.
"There are still rooms available on the fourth floor, but you're late, so you won't have too long to rest." He said.
"Excuse me......"
I just opened my doubts, but the man knew what I wanted to ask.
"You can call me a turtledove." He said, "Just like you, a third-level Demon Emringer. Maybe no one told you before, but in the future, please don't randomly detect other people's information, not all low-level people will not be able to detect it. ”
"Yes, I'm sorry for what happened just now, I hope it won't cause everyone unpleasant."
"If you're a newcomer, most of them should be fine."
When I heard him say that, I immediately relaxed. Maybe the previous behavior was too impulsive, but on the bright side, it is also possible to test the measurement of the people here, and thus infer the human nature of the security bureau. This kind of privacy can be big or small, and if only a small number of people have bad intentions, then maybe they can be more bold in this organization in the future.
I don't have a lot of social experience, but what I learned in the student council helped me adapt to the new organization more quickly.
Sure enough, it was the right choice to make yourself an honor student and join the student union. Thinking back to what happened before, I was able to survive and become a third-level demon pattern messenger, in addition to my natural character, the experience of the student council also had an extremely important impact.
The drastic changes that have occurred in me are only a month, and if you are an ordinary student, you will definitely be anxious for a while, and if you can't adapt and deal with it correctly in the first place, you will be killed by the pressure that accumulates rapidly.
I can't help but feel glad.
"Where's Billy?" Tomie asked.
"He, as your temporary leader, is being consulted by the person in charge of this operation." Turtledove said.
He took us to the second house on the fourth floor near the end of the hallway, the door was unlocked, and he twisted the handle and pushed the door in. The room was very clean, very different from the dusty miscellaneous room in the courtyard, which should have been sorted out beforehand. There are not many furnishings, only a cabinet and two beds, the beds are set up with mosquito nets, and when you open the window at the back of the house, you can see the moss and wild grass five meters away, and the yellow-brown stone wall is ten meters high.
As early autumn approaches, the night in the mountains no longer feels hot, and the mountain breeze in the heights is stronger than on the flats, and it is no longer cool, and there is a slight chill when it caresses the skin.
The beds were no longer neatly stacked blankets, but thin quilts. But I won't need it tonight.
Tomie and I were both satisfied, and it would have been more pleasant to have a leisure trip, but the thought that in another hour a terrible battle would engulf it all, the quietly rising pleasure was extinguished.
"If you need anything else, you can go to the lobby on the first floor to find me, and if you're hungry, you can go there to eat, and you can always have a hot meal before you move." The glasses man Turtledove took his leave after explaining.
I placed my weapon next to the bed, and Tomie was already lying on the bed. I went out into the hallway, and there was no more figure left or right, and there was no light, and it was back to the way we had been. The dim light of the hall downstairs could not even reach every corner of the courtyard, and the closer you got to the main entrance, a piece of lead-like darkness pressed down heavily, and beyond it was a gauzy haze.
Look at the scenery that blends in with the night. In the mountains and forests not far away, there was a hoarse cry of crows, and I didn't know if it was a quark. For a moment, I felt a nightmare.
"What a bad night." I said to myself in a voice that I could only hear.
