The city of Constant is located in the interior of the Kingdom of Heidelberg. It is one of the most economically prosperous cities in the Kingdom of Heidelberg after entering the age of steam machinery.
A city like this is naturally home to many nobles and wealthy businessmen.
The East District is the area with the most nobles and wealthy businessmen. More than 90% of the nobles and wealthy businessmen in Constant City live here.
Among the many villas of nobles and wealthy businessmen, there is a villa that looks very ordinary, at least on the surface. This is the Constant City Branch of the Kingdom Security Bureau.
The Kingdom Security Bureau is an organization that specializes in handling the mysterious world for the Kingdom of Heidelberg. It has branches in some important cities in the kingdom.
Although it is an official organization, it is a secret organization that handles mysterious-related incidents. Naturally, it cannot appear in the open like the Security Department.
"Deputy Bureau, it has been confirmed that the person who killed the ghoul with extraordinary characteristics was Ray Romano's student Feline Socks. He possesses marksmanship that can reach the master level."
At this time, in an office, a young woman in her twenties with blond hair and thin-rimmed glasses was reporting to Lindy Harlowen, who had appeared in the security department.
Her name is Julie Kate, she is Lindy Harlowin's secretary, the assistant responsible for assisting Lindy Harlowin in her clerical work, and the person whom Lindy Harlowin trusts deeply.
"It's actually him."
Lindy Harlowen was sitting on an office chair. Her slightly lazy posture made her breasts look very spectacular. Unfortunately, no man could see such a tempting picture.
Of course, if a man really saw such a seductive scene, he would probably be silenced.
She was a little surprised when she heard Julie's report.
After guessing that one of the three people, Josie Romano, Kafi Colon, and Ferrin Socks, had extraordinary characteristics, she immediately mobilized the kingdom's intelligence network to investigate.
However, the focus of the investigation is not Felin Sox, but the detective Kafi Colon.
Because, as a detective and possibly possessing firearms, Caffey Colon is more likely to be a person with extraordinary properties in killing ghouls.
But the result of the investigation was beyond her expectation. The person with extraordinary characteristics was not the detective Caffey Colon, but Felin Socks, the appraiser among the three, who was supposedly the youngest.
"How old is Feline Sox?"
"I just turned twenty a little over a month ago."
Julie answered directly without looking at the report in her hand, because she had already memorized all the information verbatim in her mind with a memory far beyond that of ordinary people.
Of course, this is not all the manifestation of her far superior memory ability than ordinary people.
As long as she is willing, she can easily memorize a thick and heavy dictionary word for word within an hour.
"To be able to practice marksmanship to a master level at the age of 20, your qualifications are considered excellent."
Lindy nodded and commented.
For some reasons, secret organizations like the Kingdom Security Bureau will recruit people who are different from ordinary people or who have master-level technical attainments.
He has reached the master level at the age of twenty. Although he is excellent, it is not uncommon in the security bureau, so his qualifications can only be regarded as acceptable.
"Deputy Director, I have a different opinion. I think this person's talent is more than just excellent. It should be enough to be rated as a special grade."
Julie shook her head and said.
As long as it is work-related, she dares to refute even if it is her immediate superior.
This is a character she cannot change. Because of this character, she was dismissed by her immediate boss many times.
It was not until he became Lindy Harlowen's secretary that he stabilized his position and was not dismissed again.
"Oh, what is the basis for your judgment?"
Lindy was not angry when Julie retorted. The reason why she admired Julie was because of Julie's seriousness in her work.
What she needs is an assistant who can truly help her, not a yes-man.
"According to the information, both of Felin Sox's parents died very early. He has a sister who is currently married. Before he started working at the age of 18, his family background was very average."
"Before he started working, he did not have the financial means to access firearms. In other words, although he was 20 years old, it only took him two years to practice his marksmanship to a master level."
"The registration records obtained from the Drake Shooting Gallery also confirm this. His earliest practice was two years ago."
Julie pushed up her glasses and expressed the basis for her judgment.
"Practice your marksmanship to a master level in two years?"
Lindy slightly held her chin up with her white hands, showing a little surprise on her face.
Although there are many people in the Security Bureau who have reached master level in certain technologies in their teens, these people were exposed to related technologies at a very young age.
If Felin Socks really took two years to practice his marksmanship to a master level, he would indeed be worthy of a special rating.
"Deputy Director, I suggest that Felin Sox be recruited into the Security Bureau immediately. If it is too late, other secret organizations may take advantage of him first."
Julie suggested.
In the Kingdom of Heidelberg, in addition to the Kingdom Security Bureau, there are other secret organizations, but these secret organizations are all unofficial.
In normal times, these secret organizations often compete with them for talents. Now that a super talent appears, other secret organizations will never let him go.
"Okay, let's leave now."
Knowing the importance of the matter, Lindy stood up from the office chair.
After tidying up her long black dress that was a little inelegant due to her too lazy sitting posture, she quickly opened the door and walked out of the office.
Behind her, Julie adjusted her glasses and followed quickly.
"Although he is already twenty years old, it only took him two years to practice master-level marksmanship. His qualifications are definitely enough to reach the special level."
In a private carriage, two men with unique temperaments were talking.
The private carriage they were riding in was heading towards the street where Felin was.
As Julie speculated, not only the Kingdom Security Bureau discovered that it only took two years for Felin to practice his marksmanship to a master level, but other secret organizations also discovered this.
Talents with special qualifications are extremely rare in any secret organization.
After learning that such a special talent appeared in Constant City, they immediately took action and prepared to absorb this person into the organization.
"What's going on? Why haven't you arrived after so long?"
During the conversation, one of the men suddenly frowned.
The carriage has been traveling for a long time, and logically it should arrive at the Felin Laboratory where the target person is located.
He opened the curtain and asked the driver.
"How long until we arrive?"
"Sir, we should be arriving soon, but, just..."
The coachman was very nervous, stammered when he spoke, and there was sweat on his forehead.
"Just what?"
The man asked with a frown.
"It's just that this street... seems to have become very long. No matter how you walk... you can't reach the end."
The coachman stammered, and he was sweating heavily.
Having been a coachman for decades, he is extremely familiar with every street in Constantinople, and he is sure to drive the carriage to its destination with his eyes closed.
But today he found that the streets that were once very familiar suddenly became very strange, and the road seemed to have no end.
"not good."
Hearing the coachman's answer, the man who asked the question and the other man secretly screamed.
"Stop now."
The two asked the coachman to stop the carriage immediately, then jumped out of the carriage and looked around solemnly.
All secret organizations practice a power called occult, and people who practice this power are called occultists.
The occurrence of mysterious phenomena means that they either encountered a mystery or encountered other mystics and fell into the secret techniques of other mystics.
Judging from the fact that it is daytime, it is very likely that he is a mystic.
In a mystic battle, the opportunity is most important. If they fall into the enemy's secret technique, they are already in an extremely disadvantageous situation.
"It should be the secret space maze. We are trapped in the secret space maze."
The first man said solemnly.
"They didn't attack us. They probably just wanted to trap us."
The other man frowned.
Then, the two of them looked at each other and their expressions turned ugly.
"Damn it, I've been tricked. The other party should be here for special talents."
"In order to prevent us from coming into contact with special talents, we are trapped in a space maze."
The other party is probably just like them, coming here for special talents.
In order to prevent them from coming into contact with special talents, they were directly trapped in the space maze.
By the time they escape from the space maze, the other party may have persuaded super talents to join the other party's organization.
They knew that this recruitment was probably going to fail.
In fact, it's not just these two men.
In addition to these two men, some other people who were preparing to contact Felin's secret organization were also trapped in the space maze.
"Deputy Bureau, the five waves of people who tried to approach here have all fallen into the space maze."
Outside the Felin Laboratory, Julie adjusted her glasses and reported to Lindy.
It was she who created the space maze. Although she usually looks like a civilian, in fact, she is also a mystic.
The secret space maze she possesses, although it has little combat effectiveness, is an excellent secret technique for trapping enemies.
To fall into this secret technique, one must also master space secret techniques, or have the absolute strength to break through the void of space.
Otherwise, it would be almost impossible to break free as long as his secret technique can maintain it.
"Very good, hold them off, and I will persuade Felin Sox to join during this time."
Lindy, who was as beautiful as a black rose in a black dress, smiled slightly, walked to the Felin Laboratory, and knocked on the door of the Felin Laboratory.
