The two easily crossed the gap between the roofs, and then stepped on the roof of the three-story office building together.
Backed by excellent physical fitness.
The entire floor-crossing process was very quick and easy, and it didn't even take more than a minute.
"Ronald, do you feel it?" Stepping on the top of the office building, Heloise glanced down and smiled at Ronald with a proud expression, "Is there anything wrong with my discovery?"
"Very accurate." Ronald nodded in agreement.
Don't put it aside temporarily.
When it comes to detecting mysterious side traces, Heloise's ability is really quite powerful.
Only after Ronald himself stood on the roof of the office building could he be sure of the powerful magic lingering in the building below his feet, and understand that there was no doubt that some mysterious ritual or spell was going on here.
And what about Heloise?
Being able to detect this phenomenon from as far away as the city block, it's obvious how talented she is.
And then, Heloise, who was in a pretty good mood, took the initiative to ask for help:
"Ronald, I am more sensitive to changes in magic power fluctuations, so just walk in front. If someone who is relatively hidden approaches the two of us, remember to remind me."
"no problem."
After arranging the sequence of actions in two sentences, Ronald and Heloise immediately jumped down from the edge of the office building. The distance from the roof of the third floor to the window on the second floor was completely inconvenient for the two of them.
There is difficulty, it is as simple as walking up an ordinary flight of stairs.
So he didn't make any noise and didn't attract any attention.
The two simply slipped in through the open window and stepped onto the corridor on the second floor of the office building.
The location where they are now is at the outer end of the gabled corridor of the entire office building. The light bulbs placed in the top corners provide steady lighting, and the floor under their feet is covered with a layer of monochrome carpet.
Apart from the slight noise from the electric lights, there was no trace of anyone here.
Of course, except Ronald who has excellent hearing.
He could slightly detect the sounds of people writing or taking a nap in the surrounding offices. Unfortunately, other than these, Ronald didn't have any more sources of information. The appearance shown here was that of an ordinary man.
The condition of the office building.
So, Ronald lowered his voice and reminded Heloise:
"Except for what I said before I came in, the mental state of the people here is not right. I didn't notice anything."
"Hold on……"
Heloise nodded in understanding.
But he didn’t just give up his plan to explore here just because of Ronald’s judgment.
She naturally lowered her footsteps and walked outside a room where someone was working. Slightly bending to divert her gaze, Heloise carefully raised her eyes to the keyhole.
Exclude more expensive security designs.
The general door locks in this era are still of relatively old structure, and the internal conditions can be peeked through the keyhole.
At this moment, the only person who appeared in Heloise's sight was a young man. He was sitting quietly in the office, holding a pen and writing and recording documents such as account books.
"..."
Heloise frowned.
There are magic fluctuations in this guy's body, but he is obviously the kind of victim who is completely unaware of the spell after being cast. Besides this person, there is nothing worthy of attention in the room within the visual range.
It seems...there's really nothing wrong here?
After confirming this, Heloise straightened up and tiptoed to the door of another office, peeking in using the same method.
However, he swept through four rooms in a row.
All the results she got were exactly the same.
The number of people is more or less different, but most of these people are immersed in their own work or fishing for leisure, and they have not made any unexpected discoveries.
At this point, Heloise gave up and shook her head:
"It seems like there's really nothing to gain from the second floor."
Ronald immediately answered:
"During Elaine's interrogation, didn't that guy say he wanted to provide 'food' to ordinary people? Let's go downstairs and take a look?"
"Go on."
Ronald and Heloise discussed quietly, then continued their actions.
When I was going downstairs through the stairs, there happened to be an overtime employee who was working late at night walking towards the first floor holding documents.
Hearing the noise below, Ronald subconsciously wanted to avoid it.
However, Heloise grabbed the corner of his clothes at this moment.
"Ronald, test the waters with this guy!"
"Is this really good? What if we scare someone away?"
"We both came in, be careful and try it out boldly!"
After Heloise's dissuasion, Ronald sighed slightly and walked down, and then bumped into this man head-on.
"well?"
The employee who was about to go upstairs was immediately startled.
A strange man stood in front of him, and behind him was a girl who was so beautiful that he was speechless. When did these two people appear in his company?
Faced with this situation, the staff subconsciously stepped back.
As a result, I missed the step on the stairs.
Looking at the clerk who fell backwards in front of him, Ronald sighed in his heart.
If you are so frightened when you meet a stranger, and there is no magic power fluctuation in your body that a caster should have, why is there any need to test?
With a gentle rub of his fingers, the ability of [Arch Angel] pulled the young employee back by his clothes, saving this guy from the tragic fate of landing on the back of his head.
As the passive party, the clerk's brain can no longer handle the current situation: "You... you are... I..."
Only then did the doubtful inquiry begin.
Ronald's majestic and demonic voice interrupted him:
"Listen, you haven't seen the two of us today, so continue your previous work."
"Well……"
The ability of [Angel of Dominance] takes effect immediately.
The clerk didn't say another word, turned around and walked around the two people on the stairs while holding the document, and then walked straight to his office on the second floor. Even when this guy passed by, Ronald could still hear his mouth.
Complaining like, 'I'm tired of working overtime so late...'.
Seeing the young man disappearing up the stairs, Ronald turned his helpless eyes to Heloise:
"Responses are slow and ordinary, and can be interfered with normally using spells."
Heloise shrugged:
"This at least shows that the enemies we have to face are not all ordinary people in this building, which is good news."
The two of them continued downward, and then encountered no further disturbance from ordinary people.
But when they came to the kitchen in the corner of the first floor, the situation was completely different.
In this unremarkable room.
Heavy and slow footsteps lingered among them, far louder than the sound of rough human breathing.
Stopping in tacit agreement, Ronald and Heloise looked at each other.
