Chapter 10: Sure enough, I was trapped
"The entire Secretarial Division, from top to bottom, is divided into five departments, except for the committee where the leadership is located."
"The logistics department where we are located is counted as one, as well as the property management department responsible for material deployment and equipment research and development, the secret department responsible for collecting intelligence, and the 'sue for the dead' who speak out to the outside world."
"Sue the dead?" Wayne asked suspiciously, "What department is that?" β
Lacey said lightly: "The other name of the External Propaganda Department, the reason why they are called 'suing the dead', most of the times when they need to speak out to the outside world, it is some bad things. β
"To be precise, they are the department that publishes the casualties and the results of the disposition."
"So, what's the last department?"
"The War Department, the core department of the entire Secret Division, they ......"
Lacey paused slightly, "Well, you'll know when you see them." In short, those who can join the warhead are crazy. β
As she walked, she not only introduced the situation of the secret department, but also said some precautions to let him understand as comprehensively as possible.
This made Wayne very good to Lacey's senses.
However, he was not idle when he listened, and looked left and right as if he was visiting the Grand View Garden with Grandma Liu, and he was very interested in everything here.
Of course, it is mainly by virtue of his perceptual ability to "see".
One of the most impressive is the place called the Detention Zone.
As he passed by, he felt a strange fluctuation, just like the rune circle he had opened in the morning.
But it should be more intense, and it should be more weird, as if it was going to be devoured by people.
According to Lacey, the most dangerous thing in the entire city-state of Custer is held there. She didn't specifically refer to creatures here, and there were a lot of weird forbidden items in it.
"There aren't many rules for our secret department, but there's one thing you need to remember."
Lacey stopped, looked at Wayne and said solemnly, "Never talk about anything related to faith in front of the director!" β
Faith-related?
Wayne looked at her with some confusion.
Although he had not been in this world for a long time, he also knew that the Church had absolute superiority in many places.
Especially a church with a large number of believers like the Church of the Dawn, even in a seaside city-state like Custer, can compete with the Church of Storm.
"Sister Lacey, are you referring to the Church of the Dawn?"
"All of them."
Lacey continued to walk forward, "Dawn, Storm, Abundance, and the Red Moon are forbidden to do anything related to these four churches. β
"Anyway, you just have to remember that. Under normal circumstances, the chief is still very talkative. β
Wayne nodded, not thinking it was a big deal, just a boss with a bit of a quirk.
"Here, this is the property management department."
Lacey stood still outside an iron gate, and complained: "I don't know how the director will assign this place to their miscellaneous moths!" β
Wayne glanced around and exclaimed, "This place is beautiful enough." β
Surrounded by flowers and plants of various colors, the layers are very layered, and there are several kinds of flowers that are very precious at a glance and too bright.
There is a fountain at the gate, the water is very clear, and it is obviously often cared for.
What surprised him the most was the building in front of him, just looking at the exterior could feel out of place with other buildings.
The gate is made of heavy ironwood, and it is also carved with delicate patterns.
The supporting columns on both sides are even more extravagant in the use of white stone, which even the predecessors of the little knowledge know that its price is comparable to that of gold pounds.
The floor is covered with a floor of the same stone, bright enough to be used as a mirror.
forehead
Purple!
Wayne glanced at the ground and quickly covered his nose and looked elsewhere.
I don't know which great god's masterpiece is that the "mirror" is spread on the ground, which is too unfriendly to those women who dress coolly......
"The best location, the most luxurious building in the whole of the Secret Division...... It is said that when this was built, it was spent three years of the division's funds. β
Lacey pouted and said: "I thought that the former director was built for high-rises, but I didn't expect to raise a bunch of miscellaneous pieces that were waiting for death." β
"Sister Lacey, you seem to be very ...... to them"
"Contempt!"
Lacie glanced at the ground, also aware of his own light, and clamped his legs unnaturally, explaining: "Most of the people in the property management department are the descendants of those who died in the past. β
"Originally, the department hoped that they could inherit their legacy and strive to improve themselves with the help of the energy of the property management department. But I didn't expect it...... I didn't expect them to be so uncompetitive! β
It turned out to be the second generation, and now Wayne understands a little.
"Jingle bells."
Lacey pressed the doorbell and said unhappily: "Hurry up and get your things and leave, this damn floor...... If I couldn't afford it, I'd love to break them all. β
Before the door could open, a voice came, "That's not good, Lacey, even if you break one piece, your year's salary won't be enough to pay for it." β
"Somley, open the door."
"I'm here, what's the hurry. We've been working together for so long, you should understand the style of our property management department, right? β
"I don't understand." Lacey covers the hem of her skirt with one hand to minimize the area that will be gone.
Seeing this, Wayne took off his coat and handed it over, "Sister Laixi, here you go." β
Lacey tied her coat under her waist and said with a sigh of relief: "I won't say thank you, I'll treat you to a treat in the evening and take you to experience the nightlife of Lower Caster." β
"You're welcome."
But the nightlife or something...... I still want it!
At this moment, the door slowly opened inward.
A young man with a dark blue uniform on his shoulder walked out, glanced at the ground, and pouted, "Lacey, it's all old friends, it's not good for you to be so prepared." β
"Less!" Lacey snorted: "Today we have a new colleague in the logistics department, I am too lazy to beat you." β
"New colleagues?"
Only then did Somley notice Wayne next to him, a trace of displeasure flashed on his face, but he laughed and said, "Welcome, welcome to join the secretarial department, I am Sommley Arias from the property management department." β
"Wayne Love."
I don't know why since this person came out, little Asi's eyes have been fixed on this person named Somley, and he didn't even look at Lai Xi's white land on the great shore.
This made Wayne interested in the person in front of him.
"Please come with me, the equipment is in the warehouse next to it."
Somlley nodded flatly, turned around with a vague arrogance, and walked ahead to lead the way.
"Go ahead, I'll wait for you outside." Lacey frowned as she looked at the brighter ground inside.
"Okay."
With that, Wayne followed, and his eyes were on Somley as little Assi.
"Look at you, it's not Custer's, is it?"
"It hasn't been long since I arrived."
Somlley turned around and glanced at him, his eyes scrutinizing, "I dared to join the Secret Investigation Division when I first arrived, and it is still the most dangerous logistics department besides the warhead,"
"Are you a transcendent profession, or an inheritor with transcendent bloodline?"
Wayne was stunned, not because of the question raised by the other party, but because of the most dangerous logistics department.
"Is the logistics department dangerous?"
ββ¦β¦ I don't know anything about the Secret Division, tsk! β
Somlley smiled meaninglessly, looked at him, and said, "Wayne, I hope to see you at the Secret Division in the future." β
With that, he quickened his pace and didn't stop until the room at the end of the hallway.
"It seems that after a while, it is necessary to ask Sister Lacey about the job responsibilities of the logistics department!"
Wayne had some bad premonitions in his heart, maybe this logistics department was not the same as he imagined.
In contrast, the work of the PMS is in line with his expectations......
"Don't be stunned, I'll go to the cathedral later, come over quickly."
Somlley took out a piece of parchment and spread it on the table, beckoning, "Sign your name here, and I have to remind you that the secret secretary is on a tight budget,"
"When the equipment is damaged, you have to pay half of the repair cost."
Wayne glanced at the suitcase in his hand and asked, "Is it expensive to repair?" β
"It's expensive...... Yet? Rookie, put away your poor imagination. β
Somley sneered, "What is in this box is the most sophisticated and powerful equipment in the entire city-state of Karst. β
"Except for some privately customized equipment, this thing is the most precious. This set alone is sold on the black market and can make you rich overnight. β
"You don't think we're really Lacey's stuff to eat, do you?"
Wayne blinked, "You mean, it can be sold?" β
If you really get rich overnight, this deal is not impossible.
After selling his equipment, he left the kingdom of ChΓ’tland and ran away.
As for whether the people in the property management department are miscellaneous...... What does this have to do with him?
ββ¦β¦β
Somley had a strange expression, and the veins on his head squirmed, "If you dare to sell them privately, just wait for the maniacs of the warhead to find you!" β
"I'm just kidding."
Wayne signed his name, carried the box, and asked casually, "Brother Somley, you also want to go to the church to watch Archbishop Crane sing praises?" β
"Who cares about that old man, I'm going to see my goddess Kali...... What does this do, you ask? β
"Goddess Carly?"
"What does this have to do with you?"
Wayne watched his eyes turn dangerous, and pretended to be happy and said, "If it's the goddess Carly who studied at Krims Academy, I should know her." β
Since Xiao Assi is so interested in him, it is better to leave a hook appropriately.
"You? Meet the goddess Kali? β
"yes."
Somlley said disdainfully, "Then I still know her father...... Hurry up, don't delay me from getting off work! β
"See you then, Brother Sommere."
Seeing that he didn't believe it, Wayne didn't say anything more, shrugged his shoulders and turned to leave.
The hook has been lowered, and there will be opportunities later.
When he left the property management department, he saw Lacey standing by the fountain with an impatient face, and a tall strong man next to him.
ββ¦β¦ Sandiego, I've made my attitude clear, please don't appear in front of me again. β
"Lacey, I know you have a misunderstanding about me, and time will prove that I am the only one who is the most powerful inheritor of the Montoya family."
"What does that have to do with me?"
"Sister Laixi, I've got the equipment here."
When the strong man heard the voice, he turned around and glanced at Wayne, and after dropping the sentence "Let's talk next time", he turned to leave.
Lacey didn't respond to his words, but handed Wayne the coat tied around his waist, "Let's go." β
Wayne was stunned for a long time before he could hold back the shiver on his body, took the coat and put it on stiffly, "Sister Laixi, who was that just now?" β
"Sandiego, he's the Warhead, a true madman! When you see him in the future, remember to stay away from him. β
Wayne nodded calmly, "Oh." β
That look...... It was so scary, he thought he was going to die.
The moment he and the man's eyes met, he felt the world spin in front of him, and vaguely he seemed to see a towering giant figure roaring at him.
Lacey looked at him, as if she had thought of something, and her expression changed to anger, "This bastard! He actually used a shock on you! β
"The next time I see him, I won't be able to spare him!"
"Shock?"
"A kind of spiritual secret technique, as long as the spiritual level does not exceed the caster, it will be forced to fall into a state of stunnedness, and in serious cases, it will even become an idiot!"
Lacey gritted his teeth and said, "I didn't expect him to dare to do something to you, isn't he afraid of being punished by the director?" β
"It's okay, I'll know later."
Wayne didn't care on the surface, but in his heart he remembered the name Santiago.
In this field, he will definitely get it back if he has a chance!
"Let's go, I'll tell you about the situation of the secret division when I get back."
"Hmm."
Wayne followed behind with his suitcase, "By the way, Sister Lacey." I don't know the job responsibilities of our logistics department yet, can you tell me about it? β
"Huh? When you signed the employment contract, didn't Yegor explain it to you? β
"Maybe Minister Yegor forgot."
"This bastard!" Lacey burst into foul language again, "I knew he didn't say anything, wasn't this deliberately tricking?" β
ββ¦β¦β
Has this forgotten that when they first met, she used the word "flickering".
"Our logistics department, the full name is actually the logistics and investigation department! In fact, the scope of work has nothing to do with logistics. β
ββ¦β¦ What about the specifics? β
Although Wayne was a little mentally prepared, when he really heard this, he still felt like he had been cheated!
"The specific work mainly consists of two parts,"
Lacey said slightly embarrassed: "One is responsible for the investigation of all mysterious cases within the city of Custer, I know it's not appropriate to say this, but in fact, this job is very dangerous!" β
"So I'm going to go in and out of all kinds of dangerous places?"
"Not only that, but also the believers who deal with those evil gods, the out-of-control transcendent professionals, and ......"
"And?!"
Wayne rolled his eyes, he already understood what the logistics department did.
If you have a little image, you are a police officer of the otherworld!
"Also, it is necessary to collect as many weaknesses as possible of those strange creatures and provide assistance to the warhead personnel in battle......"
"So we're going to fight those weird creatures in advance?"
"No," Lacey said embarrassedly, "or what you learned in some other way......
Wayne took a deep breath and was not prepared to dwell on the issue, but asked, "What about the other one?" β
"The other is to be responsible for the closing of the case!"
Speaking of this, the expression on Lacey's face relaxed, and he smiled: "I promise this duty, you are absolutely satisfied!" β
