“Captain, do you think this fire is suspicious?”

On the street next to the slum where a large fire broke out not long ago, an inconspicuous black car was parked.

Sitting in the driver’s seat of a simple car was a dark-haired young man who looked a little bored.

The young man propped his elbows on the door of the car that had been pulled down by the window, he held his chin, and his eyes looked a little blankly at the scorched marks of the flames burning not far away.

“Is it really good for us to spend our time here? Aren’t we going to track down the golden witch and the Abyss Order?

“The clue of the golden witch was broken, and after this witch suddenly disappeared, the Abyss Sect then nervously disappeared, and our reliable informants could not give us any information, and now we are at a loss, we can only use the most basic felt search to find those guys little by little.”

Sitting in the passenger seat, the stout inch-headed man closed his eyes, as if he was faking sleep, but when he heard the question of the young man next to him, he immediately responded to the other party.

“The fire in the slums of this city happened too suddenly, the timing was a little too right, and according to several clues we heard from the police, this fire should be man-made, and the source of the fire seems to have some problems, anyway, now we can only wait for further news, then come here to investigate.”

“Okay, okay, along the way, you know.”

The black-haired youth actually only complained because he was too bored, and he did not object to the captain’s course of action.

Purely because he thought that there might be a big war after coming to this city, he was prepared for all kinds of psychological preparations, who knew that when he really came to the scene, nothing happened. He

had only succeeded in becoming a white knight a month ago, and he planned to hurry up to make a contribution, he really wanted to prove his ability, and then, the great opportunity somehow disappeared, and they were empty.

This sense of gap is too great, so that he cannot adjust his mentality for a while.

“So, our Miss Witch, do you see anything?”

The youth turned his head and looked at the long-haired woman in the back seat.

The woman with thick light-colored hair suddenly opened her originally closed eyes at this time.

“Captain, your hunch is correct, there is a problem in this slum, there is a problem with this fire.”

The young woman, who was probably in her twenties, had blood and tears in her eyes at this time.

Seeing this, she took out a handkerchief in her pocket and quickly cleaned the blood stains on her face.

“Fortunately, we came in time, the evidence has not disappeared, in front of us, in the area over there, full of traces of spirituality, it is estimated that there are a large number of ghosts or dead spirits active.”

“Good, then we’ll have something to do next.”

The strong man, known as the captain, slowly opened his eyes.

“Newcomer, you try to inquire with the residents of the slums, can you do it?”

“No problem, I’m also from a slum, I know what to do.”

Hearing that there was finally something to do, the black-haired young man immediately perked up.

He wouldn’t mind this basic search mission, he just didn’t want to waste time sitting still.

“Captain, then I’ll go one step ahead.”

The young man waved at the two people in the car, then opened the door and left with brisk steps.

“It’s nice to be young.”

The woman who didn’t know when she had already taken out her makeup in her bag and sighed with a smile.

“Captain, what about my mission?”

“Witch, you rest in the car first, you don’t have to hold on in front of the newcomer, you consumed a lot of spiritual prying just now.”

The captain’s calm eyes looked at the woman whose expression had become a little stiff through the mirror of the rear.

“Witch, if you are afraid that there is nothing to do, take out the map and confirm the area where you found the problem, what kind of things were there before the fire.”

“I see.”

The witch nodded.

After quickly putting on her makeup, she took out a detailed map of the city that she had recently obtained from the local branch and began to check the situation in the area.

The captain had already got out of the car by this time and was ready to go to the outlying area of the slum to investigate.

“Huh? He is…” The

captain had not yet taken a few steps when he suddenly saw a familiar figure.

The other party has become a little different from when they met before, and it feels a little unsophisticated, but it is not a depression.

“Is this person really from that time coming to this city?”

The captain thought about it for a while, and then quickly made a decision.

He walked towards the place where the figure he knew.

“I don’t know if he is still working as a detective now, let’s ask first, in this strange city, this person may be able to help me.”

*

“Hello, long time no see, Antonio. Canon.

Antonio, who was sitting in the small restaurant on the street next to the slum, looked in amazement at the man sitting in front of him.

The language spoken by the other side, Bansy, which is not the official language of the country, is the more widely spoken language of the Granian language around the world. A

strong man wearing ordinary clothes, but still unable to hide his fierce temperament, greeted Antonio politely.

“Do you still recognize me? I’m David. ”

“…… Of course remember.

Antonio tried hard to hide the true emotions in his heart, and also responded to the other in Gran’s language.

He is also a high-achieving detective, and he certainly knows Gran, a language that can be called the world’s lingua franca.

This man… Is it actually him who came to the White Knight…

This strong man in front of him is the last thing Antonio wants to see now, and there is no one.

He would rather see a golden witch than suddenly meet this man!

“The last time we met, it seems to have been in the capital a year ago, David of the White Knight.”

“I’m glad you remember me.”

David beckoned to the waiter and ordered food before continuing to talk to Antonio.

When he spoke to the waiter, he spoke in fairly standard Bansy.

“Antonio, although I have heard that you left the capital, I never expected that you would be in this city, which is also the so-called fate.”

Antonio had to force a smile.

This white knight, who felt a little serious, probably wanted to slow down the atmosphere, but it didn’t help at all.

After all, Antonio really had a ghost in his heart.

“Antonio, are you still doing detective work?”

After a few proper conversations, the white knight finally introduced the topic.

“I’m still a detective, that’s right.”

Antonio responded carefully, afraid that if he accidentally said the wrong thing, he would be suspected by the white knight in front of him.

“It’s not a secret, I came to this city only if I had a job, but I was new to this strange city, I was not familiar with this place, I wanted to find a reliable person to help me investigate something.”

Hearing that the white knight wanted to entrust himself, Antonio’s first reaction was to reject the other party.

However, Antonio’s head quickly turned around, which may also be an opportunity.

“David, what do you want me to investigate? First of all, if it is too dangerous, I will not do how much money you give.

Antonio put himself into detective mode and began to communicate commercially with the client in front of him.

“Rest assured, I’m not going to involve the general public in high-risk things, I just want to know more about the city and what is worth remembering about the city recently.”

David slowly said his commissioned project.

“Also, Antonio, I want to know what kind of actions the local gangsters have been doing recently, and whether there are some suspicious underground organizations here recently, if you know, please be sure to tell me, I will pay you accordingly.”
