Standing in the warm hall, Ronald raised his left foot and scratched his right ankle.
He's a little bored——
No matter how Ronald Ren guessed before, he never expected that the people from the Investigation Bureau would be so open-minded!
This is my first job as a temporary worker when there is a shortage of manpower.
I work as a receptionist at the front desk...
Without any ambiguity, I work at the front desk of the Bureau of Investigation building.
The girl who had previously received Ronald on the first floor, because of his kindness, came to the front desk to educate him for half an hour that night, then put on her coat and went out to perform the task.
By the way, that girl's name is Nicole Vidal.
He is an investigator who has been with the Burrenwich Bureau for one year and four months.
Although I don’t know what school of thought she was in before joining the Bureau, I heard that her current level is definitely good, and she can be regarded as the backbone of the Burrenwich Bureau.
And this is not Nicole bragging.
It was Ms. Mapel from the Human Resources Department of the Bureau of Investigation, the woman who negotiated with Ronald before, who mentioned it casually when introducing her work.
I worked like this for a whole day at my post.
Only then did Ronald understand why there was no follow-up to the incident at the train station.
In fact, on the day of the accident at the station, seconds before the Bradshaw Railway Guide went berserk, the city of Burrenwich was suddenly shrouded in a spell of unknown origin and filled with a sacred aura.
Ronald and Patricia didn't realize it because they were directly dragged into the time spiral by the rampaging "Bradshaw Railway Guide".
That power only appeared for a short time, but it was absolutely powerful.
There are many mysterious people in the city, and some even have powerful items with extraordinary elements.
Everyone felt the presence of that holy power.
So when the power exploded, major mysterious issues were immediately raised in many locations in Burrenwich.
Matters at the train station are naturally included in this.
Many of Ronald's previous ideas were in vain.
It's a pity that his brand-new coat with only the cuffs torn was a disaster, because Ronald was too careful and was disposed of early.
Of course, except for this official statement.
Ronald had some idea of what was happening in Berenwich.
That must be someone bringing the original scripture into the city——
And prepare to make big news!
Even if the extraordinary items on the ordinary mysterious side are activated, the "Bradshaw Railway Guide" that has been sleeping in the train station database for a long time will never be directly caused to go berserk by ordinary spells!
According to the common sense Ronald gained.
At least those with the same level of strength can do this.
It looks like things won't be too peaceful in Burrenwich this winter.
"and--"
Standing at the front desk, Ronald couldn't help but yawn.
Under the influence of the enchanted items, the office building of the Bureau of Investigation is as warm as a bed warmed by a cat, which has a very good sleep aid effect.
——It’s okay as long as it’s warm.
——It just so happens that there are so few things going on.
The people in the Investigation Bureau are basically working intensively in the field. After a whole morning, the front desk has been working for less than a quarter of an hour.
This is simply easier than being a clock corrector at a train station.
I'm in a different world...
Are you destined to be a salary thief?
Although Ronald was thinking aimlessly, he could actually understand the investigation bureau's helplessness.
For such insignificant work as the front desk, someone will naturally do it on a regular basis.
But in this situation where the whole city is causing riots and has exceeded the normal capacity of the investigation bureau.
Regular idle staff such as the front desk must also be on duty.
Ordinary private units can find temporary workers to support them at this time.
However, due to the rigid requirements of information control on the mysterious side, it is inevitable that just a few ordinary people cannot be hired to take over the job.
At this time, a mysterious person like Ronald is 'easy to control'.
Naturally, he became the best target for the investigation bureau to catch a strong man.
As long as the money is in place, people on the mysterious side will basically not have too many complaints.
Finding a job is very easy for them.
Thumb thump thump——
Suddenly, Ronald heard the sharp sound of hard leather soles on the wooden board.
Looking towards the stairs, I saw a pair of slender legs wearing long boots coming down from the second floor, walking as fast as if they were rushing to reincarnate.
——It's Ms. Mapel.
When the person in charge of the human resources department saw Ronald, he didn't even walk to the front desk and shouted loudly from a distance:
"Hey, Ronald."
"Your things have been approved, come over here!"
After saying this, without waiting for Ronald's reply, Mapel turned around and walked towards the back of the first floor.
"..."
"Wait for me!"
After standing at the front desk for a moment, Ronald shouted loudly and chased after him.
————
Following Ms. Mapel, Ronald went around to the back of the first floor, and the two of them got into a warehouse together.
Then in the corner of the warehouse.
Mapel faced the corner of the wall and didn't know what he was doing. The bricks that were originally empty suddenly rearranged their positions, and a cellar entrance diagonally downwards suddenly appeared there.
With a 'click' sound, Mapel opened the entrance to the cellar and ran down.
After two breaths, a voice came from below:
"Ronald, follow me quickly?"
"..."
Ronald was a little speechless, but he still followed.
When he walked downstairs, he discovered that this cellar had a whole other world to it.
There is no oil lamp or electric lamp for lighting here, but a green pyroxene is inlaid in the center of the ceiling. The stone emits a pale green light, adding to the overflowing gloom and terror in the entire basement.
Even around the basement, thick metal plates surrounded the entire space. Except for the table in the center, there were only boxes locked with chains and sealed shelves.
When shooting a horror movie in a place like this, you can start directly without a set!
At this moment, in Ronald's field of vision, Miss Mapel was standing in front of a shelf, having just opened a drawer with a key.
He saw clearly.
Mapel took out a photo album from it, and then skillfully pulled out a photo the size of a book page.
Snapped--
After closing the photo album, Ms. Mapel walked towards the table, took out a small wooden box from her pocket and threw it to Ronald:
"Come here, I will give you the seal of the school for joining."
"OK."
Catching the wooden box thrown by the opponent, Ronald opened it with one hand.
What was placed inside was a metal pendant engraved with complex patterns, but in the center of these patterns, a string of Earth's English characters that could be recognized at a glance were engraved on it.
——[Volume 11, page 260, item 6]
Ronald asked curiously:
"Is this the school mark of the Investigation Bureau?"
"That's right."
Ms. Mapel nodded in admission, and then carefully spread the photos in her hands flatly on the table.
"Come here, I will teach you the knowledge of the school of thought for newcomers to the Bureau of Investigation."
