Two more days passed after the unhappy parting with Sherlock Holmes.

The monastery returned to its former plainness.

While Lillian was studying for nuns on her own, she picked up the job of washing the pulp again.

However, Lillian increased her reward to the price of thirty copper coins.

Nock asks why, and Lillian explains that Sherlock's attitude makes her realize that the current state of the convent does not allow her to be free.

Under Lilian's lead, ten-year-old Collowell also took seven-year-old Hawks out to earn money.

Leaving the shy Ashley and the young Hywell siblings to serve as helpers for Lillian.

His own children are so sensible, and Nock can't stop them.

Since the nutrition at home has kept up, the children in the family seem to be rushing to grow up.

Now everyone has reached the level of their peers.

Collowwell and Hawkes are also far more mature than their peers because of their own experiences.

Nock wasn't worried about the safety of the two of them at all.

And the two little guys have eyesight, as long as they don't provoke professionals and nobles, and cause trouble, Nock is confident that he can settle it.

Nock is back to the laid-back and boring days.

But for some people, the days of torment have begun.

At the end of Jordan Avenue in the south of the city, a newly renovated and majestic building stands there, as if watching the equally majestic buildings on both sides of the door.

That's right, this building was built in this location, and it did have a sense of surveillance.

Because, this building is the kingdom's new professional institution - the British Police Department.

Inside were patrolmen with muskets in their hands and long swords at their waists.

In front of the police station, the buildings on both sides of Jordan Avenue are also majestic, and are the strongholds of various professions except the Cult of Nature God.

Oh, and there's a stronghold of the Holy Church that isn't here.

If the ruined monastery and the ruined church on the boulevard were also the strongholds of the Holy Church.

An abandoned priest of the Holy Church, and an isolated church. A stronghold for a group of orphans.

Although the kingdom has placed the police station here, it is to tell the British professionals that the kingdom is watching them.

But the professions of England as a whole did not care about the existence of the police station.

If it weren't for the fact that this was an institution of the kingdom, the police station would have been pacified on which night.

At the very least, the group of mages in the Magic Guild, who are even prouder than the aristocracy, have long been ready to move. It's just that I haven't found an excuse yet, and I haven't had a chance to make trouble.

And the thieves' union, the hunters' union, the bounty union, etc., all have the task of the police commissioner on their mission bounty columns.

It's just that for the sake of the kingdom's face, no one has taken on this task.

Although the new police station is not a climate, the royal knights of the kingdom have already transitioned from the military headquarters to the musket corps, and the knights and infantry regiments are enough to make the professionals dare not challenge the majesty of the royal family.

Not to mention that there is still a rumor circulating in the circle of the strong: Queen Elizabeth also has a mysterious private army. It was with the cooperation of this mysterious army that the Cult of Deity was able to force the Holy Church to give up the territory of the Kingdom of Lionheart and give it to the Cult of Nature.

It is precisely with this deterrence that the police station, a nascent professional institution, can stand tall in the royal city.

As the first commissioner of the police station, Alan Cowater was supposed to be high-spirited, and then rose to prominence and became an upstart in the kingdom.

But the reality is cruel.

The work of the police station has not been carried out smoothly.

From the bottom of their hearts, the aristocrats resisted the nascent profession of patrolling.

Because of the appearance of the patrol, the kingdom issued the "Decree Prohibiting Knight Duels", and private duels will be considered illegal.

However, to resolve conflicts between noble lords, it is generally to let the knights under their command duel, and divide the winners and losers to settle grievances or distribute benefits.

Only mortal enemies will the lords lead the private army to launch an attack between the territories.

However, for nearly a century, the aristocracy has been obsessed with the enjoyment of drunken dreams and death because of the changes of the times.

Very few people start lord wars anymore.

Therefore, duels are the most suitable way for them to settle grievances and pastimes.

But this method was banned after the appearance of the police station, so how could they not resist!

Not only aristocrats resisted the police station, but also civilians.

In the perception of civilians, a patrol officer with a musket and mediocre martial arts is only worthy of helping to solve the trivial matter of finding a cat and a dog.

The real difficulties still need to be solved by the professionals of the vocational institute.

Anyway, they also have to pay, and they are more willing to pay the group of people they recognize.

Yes, there is a fee for the police station to serve the public.

There is no free bread in the kingdom.

The police station is not the army, only the army is free.

So, in this case.

The police station needs to make a name for itself.

But all along, they have not been able to meet the opportunity.

Until the appearance of the murderer [Ripper]!

But it was this [Ripper] that made Director Alan Corwater's head white.

Originally, he rescued a victim, and he had already preliminarily grasped a clue about the [Ripper].

Thinking that this was a monster with no intelligence, Alan Cowater specially seconded a team of well-equipped and well-trained musketeers, and laid a wide net, waiting to capture the monster [Ripper] in one fell swoop. Hit the momentum of the police station.

But Alan Kowalt never expected that until the musketeers he seconded returned to the team, the monster named "The Ripper" did not reappear, as if it had disappeared out of thin air.

Alan Cowater owed the Musket Captain a favor for nothing, and wasted the resources of the police department to raise the Muskets for a week.

This kind of loss-making business, placed in the business circle, can become a case of negative teaching materials!

Now, half a month has passed since the police station swore that they would arrest the murderer [Ripper].

The police station has become a joke throughout Jordan Avenue for nothing.

It has become a laughing stock for the British people after dinner.

Alan Cowater can't wait to bring his long sword, put on the armor he has put down, and go to the [Ripper] to fight alone!

Although he Alan Cowatert is already the head of the nascent profession "patrolman".

But he was also once one of the Knights of the Kingdom! Even the position of the head of the 10th Knights has been achieved!

In terms of swordsmanship, he is confident that he is no worse than the legion commander of the Royal Knights, but he has no background and connections!

If it weren't for the restructuring of the kingdom's army, the transformation of the past army into a musket team, and the reduction of the establishment, where would he be this bullshit director!

This is all because his background and connections are not as good as other legion commanders,

Others either became the commander of the new musket team, or retained the position of captain of the knight legion, becoming the leader of one of the few remaining knightly orders.

Therefore, only by being the commissioner and making the police station a high-profile institution in the UK can he become an upstart in the kingdom!

Let those who look down on him marvel in front of him!

But if [Ripper] doesn't appear, his police station will have no chance to perform!

He was not reconciled!

That damn monster! Instead of becoming an opportunity for him to soar, it made him a laughing stock in the city of England!

Even, the royal palace sent a messenger to express to him that Her Majesty was disappointed in him!

Even the victim, Daisy Green, who used to run three times a day, was disappointed to stop asking about the killer after finding out that the police station had done nothing. (Note 1)

Instead, he hurriedly married a businessman named Jim Hudson, moved into the merchant's estate, and sought refuge.

It can be seen that people are more willing to believe in the sense of security given by a businessman full of copper smell and cunning than a police station with no achievements!

In this case, how can Alan Kowert not worry!

Even he plans to put down the skin, change into women's clothes, and go to Baker Street in the middle of the night to hang that monster [Ripper]!

Ten days! The Queen's Emissary conveyed the deadline given by Her Majesty!

If he can't solve the case, he will be the head of the office!

But now, even if he has a heart for women's clothing, but the murderer does not appear, what can he do!

Alan Cowater didn't know that soon, someone would have the same sickness and the same troubles as him!

In the convent of Our Lady, Nock ended another boring day.

After finishing dinner with his younger siblings, he told them to take a bath and get ready to rest.

As for Nock himself, he went back to his room to pack his equipment and prepare to return to his old business.

After losing the two "wronged leaders" of the Sherlock Holmes family, Nock has not had any new "customers" come to the door these days.

In order not to sit on the mountain, Nock can only return to his old business.

Moreover, it is estimated that the minotaur Ariador has been cursing himself in the black market for a long time.

As is customary, once a week trade, Nock has already released the other party's pigeons twice.

I thought I wouldn't have to go to the black market to deal with those stinky sub-human tribes anymore, but I never thought that the wronged boss would not be able to do anything!

Either disappeared or turned his face, and he was not allowed to pit twice.

Alas~

Sin, sin.

He was a working priest and was about to become a slave to money, and he was only one step away from becoming a believer in the god of commerce.

Nock silently repented of his obsession with money, wondering if he had been a little slacking off lately and had not been devout enough to the Lord.

That's not going to work, exchanging the power of faith for divine power is the only way he can improve himself at the moment.

Without the "charism" baptism of the church, the peak of the fourth order is the limit that Nock can currently reach.

If you want to continue to ascend, one way is to go to the stronghold of the Holy Church with the rank of bishop or above, and ask the bishop there to perform the "charism" baptism ceremony for himself, so as to officially gain the recognition and attention of the Holy Lord, and become a true member of the Holy Church.

Another way is to abandon one's current beliefs, change one's beliefs and devote oneself to other professions, and become a new one.

However, this method has a drawback, it is easy to be cursed by the original god of faith, and with the "curse of the gods", it will make the new god disgusted and snub himself. Unless you are recognized for doing something great that pleases the gods, it will be difficult to continue your promotion.

This kind of thing, Nock tried secretly.

Later, after discovering that he almost caused the divine power in his body to go berserk, and there was a faint feeling of being watched, Nock no longer dared to take risks.

However, because of his recklessness, he was able to imitate the aura of the professionals of certain professions, pretending to be other people's believers and secretly using the skills of some other professions.

As long as you don't use it frequently and don't get bumped into by people, there will be no problem.

At least, that's what Nock thinks of himself.

"Forget it, let's go and do some more evening classes and pray again."

Nock put down his work and walked towards the chapel in the front yard.

He didn't know what kind of trouble he had gotten into because of his unintentional move.

[Note 1: Daisy Green, quoted from the character name in the story "The Mystery of Mrs. Hudson" created by a netizen on Baidu Tieba.] I think this story is good, and I plan to introduce this character into the creation, which is a trick with a little weight. If you can find this story, you can roughly guess the role and ending of this character. 】
