Chapter eight hundred and ninety third search activities
The place where Ronald settled was at the beginning of Waterway Avenue.
Because of the rapid leap from the top of the waterfall, this location close to the city is the closest place in a straight line.
And what he wants to do now.
Just follow this road all the way east, eliminating all potential hidden dangers of businesses up to Black Pine Street.
Just didn't wait for Ronald to take the first step.
In the corner of a nearby store where only street lights were lit, a man who had been taking a nap against the wall stood up straight and immediately trotted towards Ronald.
"Mr. Ronald?"
"It's so late, why did you cast a spell to get to this place?"
"And I think the direction you are coming from...should be from the executive office, right?"
After being called, Ronald immediately glanced at the man and immediately recognized him as an Entrod agent working the night shift.
"Um……"
"You came just in time!"
Looking at each other, Ronald immediately had an idea in his mind.
To be able to work the night shift on this street, this guy must be very familiar with the vicinity of the commercial street, and at the same time, he can save himself a lot of time.
So Ronald immediately took out the token that Kang Dinglan gave to him and showed it in front of the other party:
"I just received a commission from Kangding Lan, and now I have to investigate some things here in the business district. If it is your working time now, then come over with me."
"Ah?" Agent Entrod, who came up for questioning, looked stunned.
He originally just came up to ask about the situation as a routine matter, but who would have thought that as soon as he opened his mouth like this, he would be directly recruited?!
…
However, the token of Kangding Lant in front of me cannot be faked.
The spells in the original book "The Structure of the Human Body" are the ones most popular among Entrod agents. Those of them who have learned the spells in it will naturally not be able to mistake the aura of the original book above.
"Mr. Ronald, I'm just an ordinary magician. Do you really need my help with big shots like you?"
The agent also wanted to try harder to avoid working overtime late at night this time.
However, Ronald broke his illusion with a smile:
"Follow me, you can definitely help."
"..."
"By the way, something happened in the executive office..." Seeing Ronald start to move forward, the agent could only follow him with a bitter expression. But just when he asked about the situation, the guy stopped very wisely.
Mouthed.
The agent's mind works very quickly.
He, an ordinary street patrol agent, went to inquire about matters in the executive office.
——Isn’t this just looking for trouble again?
I'm already forced to work overtime today, so I'd better try not to cause trouble for myself.
The mentality changes in an instant.
The agent's inquiry also changed the topic quite naturally:
"As long as it is an order from the Consul Court, I will obey it unconditionally! Mr. Ronald, if you want me to do anything, just ask me, and I will cooperate unconditionally!"
"..."
Ronald glanced at the agent with a subtle expression. He could see the other's mentality at the moment, so he did not point it out.
Following the agent's tone, Ronald continued:
"I came here mainly to investigate the specific situation in the business district, especially those who have had close contact with Batty in the past month or so."
"Having contact with Lord Barty..."
The agent was startled by what Ronald was going to ask.
However, he also knew his priorities clearly, suppressed the whims and whims in his heart, and the agent immediately replied to Ronald:
"Due to the increasingly complicated situation in the city, Mr. Batty has frequently appeared in the business district in the past month, and has indeed protected the safety here. As for those who have close contacts with him..."
Having said this, the expression on the agent's face was a little hesitant.
Ronald, who noticed the other party's hesitation, immediately changed to a serious tone:
"If you think about it carefully, the information you give me must be as accurate as possible."
"This matter is very important and affects the safety of the entire Waterfall City!"
"Yes! I understand!" The agent was excited, and then he continued honestly, "In the past month, the people who have had close contact with Mr. Barty include Zril Candy Shop in front of us, and Iklei who is farther away.
There are three shops: La Perfume Workshop and Naihe Handmade Clothing.”
"The owner of the candy store has a blood connection with Lord Barty; the other two are high-end stores controlled by large chambers of commerce, and are quite famous places in the city."
Ronald nodded to express his understanding, and then extended his hand to let the agent continue to lead the way:
"Then let's go to Zril Candy Shop first."
"yes!"
Then the two of them walked deeper into the street one after another.
During this process, Ronald also activated most of his investigative spells, and in addition to carefully monitoring the psychological activities of the people around the streets, he also specially used the [lie detector] that had not been used for some time, in order to
Respond to the inquiry scenarios that are bound to arise next.
Soon, Zlier Candy Shop arrived.
This store is located at a T-shaped intersection on the street, which is obviously one of the most prime locations on the entire street.
It's just that it's late at night, so it's naturally impossible for the candy shop to still be in business at this time.
"These shops have gatekeepers at night. Sir, please wait for me to knock on the door."
After a brief explanation, the agent walked forward and called the door.
As the Entrod agent guarding this street at night, he quickly opened the door of the candy store.
That is, when entering here and reporting your identity.
Ronald learned the name of the agent next to him who was leading his investigation—Okel.
…
It's a pity that the search results are worrying.
The subsequent investigation did not go as smoothly as when Ronald entered the street. The owner of the candy store was in good health, and Ronald found no signs of being invaded by eukaryotes.
The entire store is in good running condition, and even the clerk on night shift has no problem checking one by one.
——There are no dangerous eukaryotes hiding here.
So say goodbye to the candy store.
Ronald continued to go to the perfume workshop and clothing store under the leadership of Oaker.
On the way, he was always paying attention to the condition of this commercial street.
However, as he went all the way, until he also investigated perfume workshops and clothing stores, Ronald still could not find any traces of eukaryotes.
This is a fruitless operation!
…
Could it be that the eukaryotes eroded Barty's body before he could continue his activities?
When the time is approaching early morning.
Ronald stood on Black Pine Street at the end of the search, his expression looking a little solemn.
He recalled the time when eukaryotes controlled Barty's battle.
In a state where he can even use the Complete Technique... Barty has obviously been controlled by eukaryotes for a long time, otherwise how could he show such strong combat capabilities?
There's no way they did nothing!
But the question is - where are these guys hiding their actions?
