The Night's Watch is probably a gift from heaven to Chidori, and while their predictions are not accurate to the second, this ability has become one of the organization's trump cards in the world thanks to Chidori's extraordinary public relations skills.

As soon as there is a relevant prediction, Chidori will secretly find the local government organization to negotiate, and if it is a major prediction, Chidori will be more than happy to contact the senior management of the relevant country......

I have to say that this business is really booming.

Of course, in these days, everything has a price, the safety of other people's lives, the national security of other countries, or something...... Chidori doesn't care in principle, they just provide services and receive corresponding remuneration, that's all; As the detectives under it, as long as they can solve the case and complete the tasks assigned by the organization, how do they view these things in their hearts...... The organization does not interfere.

When he received the call edict, Lin Fengmian didn't think too much, and the night watchman directly connected with him, which means that there will probably be several more murders in this small place in Liucheng in the future; Naturally, there is no need for decent public relations personnel in the organization to come forward, and the detectives stationed in the local area are fully capable of solving the problem.

And with a keen sixth sense, Lin Fengmian feels that most of these cases in the future will ...... It will have something to do with the "fire" man hiding behind him.

I thought so, but after waiting for An Geyi, I rushed back to the office...... It still brought back some big problems to Lin Fengmian.

First of all, when his third-order star-patterned card was brought back by Hou Ange...... Apparently has turned into a meteorite black?

This is a very bad omen.

The abilities and behaviors of the night watchmen are difficult to control effectively, and their behavior must be restrained by certain secret medicines developed by Chidori herself; And their abilities can only be parsed and refined by touching the star-striped card - this is still the conclusion of countless trials.

And the only medium connected to it is this star level painted card.

As a credential for the identity of Detective Chidori, although the appearance of these star-striped cards does not seem to be too outstanding, the texture is not so simple -

Each Detective Plover holds a unique star-striped card.

And depending on the star level, the materials used to make it are also fundamentally different.

The first-order star-patterned plate is made of hand-me-down pure gold; The second order is cast by the bronze of the Warring States period in the Middle Ages; The third-order held by Lin Fengmian was forged using extraterrestrial meteoric iron.

As for higher-level fourth- to sixth-order star-striped cards? I can't figure it out if I didn't reach that level...... What is certain, however, is that their texture must come from rarer and more expensive materials.

Lin Fengmian sometimes thinks that if he can break through one or two more star levels in his lifetime, even if he can't handle the case and can't get oil and water, he throws the star-striped card into the black market, and the money and treasure in exchange for it will be enough for himself and Hou Ange to live the rest of their lives luxuriously......

Ah, of course, all this is not to show how rich Chidori is or how great the star-striped cards are...... Rather, in addition to being used as the face of the organization, as a detective and as a certificate to enjoy various benefits, it also has some other uses.

As I said before, the Night's Watch medium.

It sounds great, but the operation is surprisingly simple, as long as you let the night watchman touch it when he senses the dead air, which is convenient and fast.

In this regard, Chidori has also done training in-house, yes...... Detective training. The star-striped cards that have been touched by the very special constitution of the night watchman will undergo a series of the same color changes regardless of the texture or star level; Lin Fengmian remembers very well that this change has been repeatedly verified by the internal personnel of the organization and strictly divided into levels:

The pale green color indicates that the death toll is negligible, which is mostly an ordinary case;

Blue indicates that this number may rise to about a dozen people, often linked to serial murderers;

Purple is mostly associated with endangering public safety, such as bombing or low-level, targeted terrorist attacks;

Red is the most severe, and the number of casualties indicated by this color fluctuates between hundreds for each interception failure;

And as for black...... But it's a very special, very extreme color.

The number of casualties it predicts usually fluctuates between one and several thousand, such as what will happen in a place if this color is present......

It could be an ordinary murder; Or maybe someday...... Sudden explosions at chemical plants, derailments of bullet trains, plane crashes and other serious casualties.

Therefore, black is also a color full of accidents and fortunes.

Seeing that the star-striped card was actually dyed black, this had already surprised Lin Fengmian, but what happened next made him even more incomprehensible-

According to the post-ango, the Night's Watch brought the foreshadowing to the aftermath, and then ...... Turning back?

"Huh? In previous years, if you predict a black ...... The top has to send more people to predict the place of the incident, right? At least send a team of Bronze Knights? ”

Su Kuobei doesn't seem to have any intention of leaving since he came to Liucheng, and has been temporarily living in Lin Fengmian's cramped office these days; Later, An Ge was reluctant to share a room with her, and in the end, Brother Fengmian could only sleep on the sofa alone with all the rent......

At the moment, seeing the star-striped card and related information brought back by An Ge's little sister, Su Kuobei was also a little unclear.

After all, she is a member of the Pioneer Order, although the rank of the Silver Pioneer Knights is not the highest, but she has the impression that her regiment has also taken on several black starstripe missions; And almost everyone under Chidori knows that the top has always attached great importance to black signs, but whenever it appears, it will inevitably bring a series of arrangements and deployments, how can it ...... this time?

"I don't know."

For Su Kuobei's inquiry, Lin Fengmian could only shake his head, and he pinched his own star-patterned card that had been dyed black all over, and he didn't know the point; After thinking for a while, Brother Fengmian had to shrug his shoulders and comfort the two little girls beside him.

"I guess the situation is not that serious, we need to have a meeting and then send a team over, right?"

"How is that possible?"

Su Kuobei stuffed the last bite of matcha cake into her mouth, and pointed out Lin Fengmian's mistakes while tasting it, she said eloquently.

"As long as there is movement of the night watchman, there will be a special person from above to follow up, and as soon as the color of the indication appears, all personnel in the relevant area will be notified within 24 hours; Whether it's a loose person like you, or a team like me stationed in the surrounding area, none of them can run, and there has never been an exception. ”

Lin Fengmian suddenly realized that the only person in this room who needed comfort was himself...... After listening to Su Kuobei, he glanced at this little girl and replied to her angrily.

"Didn't you also say that within 24 hours, maybe this time will be calculated according to the time I got the star-striped card?"

"How is that possible! It's—"

"Well, it's no use us figuring around here." Without waiting for Su Kuobei to finish speaking, Lin Fengmian picked up the small bread on the table with his backhand, stuffed it into Su Kuobei's mouth at a speed that was difficult to catch with the naked eye, and concluded.

"In short, no matter how the above arranges, the night watchman's sign has come out, and I am still hanging on as a senior adviser to the Liucheng Police Station, in order to be able to look through their archives in the name of justice, I think we should go to the police station to remind Uncle Zhang."

"Uh-huh, hmm-hmm? Not! ”

With bread stuffed in her mouth, she couldn't stop Su Kuobei's nagging, she saw that Lin Fengmian was about to go to the police station, and suddenly said something; But no one paid attention to her, Lin Fengmian simply cleaned up after speaking, and led Hou An Ge out of the door, and walked to the entrance before turning around and asking.

"Do you want to stay in the office or come with us?"

"What do you say? Of course, Miss Ben is going with her! ”

Su Kuobei stepped on his feet and swept a few small breads into his backpack, and then he followed up.

Lin Fengmian's plan was very simple - before the instructions from above came down, he had to convince Zhang Chaoran that he had to let this bitter uncle strengthen the security of the entire Liucheng in the next few months; From small troubles and thefts to natural and man-made disasters, we have to do our best with all our hearts.

I thought so, but I just walked out of the stairwell of the office......

The three of them found a fresh corpse under the plane tree outside the hallway.
