Chapter 107: Assignment of Work
After a period of explanation, the priest finally understood what Nicole meant.
The Bureau of Investigation has no intention of abandoning Selephas, nor does it want victims to continue to appear here. It's just that the situation in the city is really very serious, and the Investigation Bureau will summon the personnel who went out to work to return to Brenwich as a last resort.
After the conversation, the priest sat in his chair and thought for almost a quarter of an hour.
Finally, a somewhat lonely expression appeared on the man's face.
"I see."
"But when the matter of Brunwich is settled, I hope you can deal with this matter as soon as possible, this is only a small town after all."
Nicole nodded solemnly, and said with a meticulous expression:
"No problem, I assure you in the name of the Queen."
"Wait until things ...... in town"
Just as the investigator girl was about to make a guarantee, a calm male voice suddenly sounded from the door of the church:
"Nicole, what are you talking about there?"
"It's not very common for you to guarantee in the name of the Queen."
Hearing the voice, the three people in the church immediately turned to look.
Just over the open door of the church, three men in the same coat and hat were walking inside, although they were a little disorganized and obviously injured, but all three were undoubtedly investigators.
Because the man who opened his mouth at this moment was the Willard that Ronald and Nicole were looking for!
It is worth noting that the investigator at the back of the three was still carrying an unconscious man on his back. Thinking about their activities in this town, it's easy to see what they're doing.
- Their task is probably accomplished.
"Mr. Willard!"
Looking at the three investigators who walked in, without waiting for Nicole to reply first, the priest sitting on the chair directly got up to greet him, his tone and expression were very excited:
"I ...... I really ......."
"Are you ......?"
"Alright, Mr. Connie." Looking at the priest with an excited face, Willard patted the other party's shoulder, and then pointed to the guy who was being carried behind him, "This guy has been caught, you can rest assured." ”
"No one will be killed in Seleface next."
“......”
The priest lost his voice.
Standing in place, his body trembled excitedly, and he tried to suppress his excitement, so that he could at least speak clearly:
"Really...... Thank you very much! ”
"The children of Seleface don't understand, but ...... But I ......"
Willard has been in this situation quite a bit.
As one of the few mysterious insiders, this kind of person who carries the truth alone usually puts a lot of pressure on himself, and the priest's reaction is quite normal.
Putting on a kind smile, he immediately reassured the priest:
"It's okay, that's what our investigators do."
"It doesn't have to be like this."
The priest nodded, and the excited expression on his face began to cool:
"I ...... I understand. ”
Seeing that the priest's mood had calmed down, Willard turned his gaze to Nicole's side.
Looking at the duo who had arrived from Brunwich, his tone immediately became serious:
"If I'm not mistaken, the news I left in the bureau is that I haven't seen you for a week and then make other preparations, Nicole, you guys are a little early."
"It's not a question of whether it's too early or not." Nicole shook her head, they were all colleagues of the Investigation Bureau, and she didn't have any concerns, so she simply explained, "This morning, the building of our Investigation Bureau was bombed by someone, and if we don't gather people to go back, God knows what kind of trouble it will become!" ”
"The building blew up?"
Willard winched, and it was clear that the answer was beyond his expectations.
"Nicole, don't joke with me about this kind of thing."
"Who dares to bomb our Bureau of Investigation?"
"What am I joking with you about this, are you looking for a smoke?" The investigator girl shrugged helplessly, and then pointed to Ronald behind her, "Besides, the first witness at the scene is here." ”
"Actually, it's quite a coincidence, I was ...... yesterday"
Approaching Willard, Nicole begins to tell the story of what happened in Brunwich during the other day's absence.
As the investigators raided the cultist warlock at night, and the counterattack launched by the other party this morning, the events were narrated one by one.
The expression on Willard's face quickly darkened.
When everything was said and done, the tall man stood motionless. But that kind of suppressed and angry emotion can be felt by everyone present.
Especially the priest named Connie in the church, who was shocked by the momentum of Willard's body, his previous excitement had disappeared cleanly, and only the awe of the person in front of him was left in his eyes.
“......”
The silence in the church lasted for more than a minute before Willard could control his anger.
Immediately, the investigator began to dictate to the investigators present:
"Nicole, I'll take you and the carriage back to Brunwich."
"For the situation in the city, we need to be there immediately."
After saying this, Willard looked at the two behind him again:
"George, you and Huggins can hire a carriage or walk back, but in any case keep an eye on the prisoners, and get back to Brenwich before nightfall tonight."
Commanding the two men, Willard's eyes finally came to Ronald.
Without any hesitation, he simply spoke:
"Ronald, right?"
"I've taken care of the main issues with Selephas, but there's still a bit of finishing touches, so you can deal with them here."
As he spoke, Willard stepped forward and stuffed something cold into Ronald's arms:
"Take this well. If someone on the mysterious side obstructs you, or doesn't have a long eye to run over to get in the way, just deal with it. ”
With that, Willard turned around and walked towards the door of the church:
"Nicole, let's go at once!"
"No problem!"
In response to Willard, Nicole gave Ronald an encouraging thumbs up and followed.
Walking out of the church, the two jumped into the carriage one after the other.
The figure disappeared from everyone's sight in a blink of an eye.
“.......”
Standing in place, stunned, Ronald looked down at his hand.
The cold thing that Willard handed over was a revolver.
At first glance, the shape and size are the same as those used before, and it should be a weapon mass-produced on the same production line.
So ...... yourself
This is the person with the gun?
At this moment, the remaining two investigators also had their own actions.
Huggins was inconvenient to carry the unconscious prisoner, so George was in charge of going out to hire a carriage.
And Huggins, who remained in the church, carrying the prisoner on his shoulder, looked up at Ronald:
"Ronald, I'll tell you about the finishing touches after that."
"After all, you've just arrived, so I guess you don't know much about the situation."
