Katarina was born into a well-respected noble family in Noxus. Her father was Du Cacao, the general in charge of the entire southern front of Noxus and the war against Shurima.
From the age of four or five, her father pushed her to learn swordsmanship. For twenty years, she hardly received any kindness or rest, in order to build her into the ultimate weapon.
She succeeded, but also failed. Because of some situations in the first mission, she did not please her father, and was even regarded as a shame that needed to be erased by his father, but her ability was indeed comparable to that of Noxus.
The sharpest sword in the empire!
After the coup a few months ago, she had a new allegiance, and after carrying out some internal purges that frightened Noxian officials, she received external support from Swain for the first time.
Task.
Go to Piltover and assassinate the Demacia general in the Feros family manor to prevent the twin cities from establishing friendly relations with Demacia.
It's obvious that she did a perfect job.
If nothing else happens, Jorge's death may not be discovered until early tomorrow morning, but Catalina feels that is not enough.
When Swain gave her the order, he also brought another 'optional task': "Screen out whether the Philos family and the Gray Lady will affect the future of the empire. If it is determined that there is a threat, you can try to assassinate the Gray Lady in the Twin Cities.
Madame Camille!”
The sharp sword of the empire should only accept orders without thinking of its own, but Catalina prefers this kind of autonomous task: "I am no longer your assassin, father, I am no longer limited by your cowardice.
rule."
Loyalty and concealment are the keys to an assassin?
Hanging the magic weapon Lich's Bane back on her waist, Catalina picked up an ornament vase in the living room, examined it in her hand, and then casually hit Jorge's head, which was not peaceful at all.
Wow——
Amidst the shattering sound, the two Demacian soldiers who were on guard at the door were alerted. They looked at each other and rushed into the room.
"General, how..."
"General?!!"
Lanxun Manor woke up from the night, and Camille arrived at the scene less than half a minute later.
After examining Jorge's body, the Gray Lady of the Twin Cities looked angrier than ever before.
The assassin had clearly decapitated Jorge silently, but then smashed his face with a vase, alerting the Noxian guards at the door. This was a naked provocation and a naked attack on Feros.
Said: Come and catch me!
Al, Jorge's adjutant on the side, was also very excited: "Did you find out? Mrs. Camille! Although General Jorge must have died at the hands of despicable Noxian assassins, he was assassinated at Lanxun Manor.
, Even if His Highness the Prince is reasonable, Demacia still needs an explanation!"
Explain? Of course you must explain!
This was a naked conspiracy. Camille secretly said, "I was careless." Ji Xing brought her such a big surprise today, and Piltover's performance was so wonderful that she unknowingly relaxed her vigilance and forgot about it.
There is also this trick!
After carefully examining Jorge's body, Camille, who had also been walking in the darkness for decades, could tell at a glance that Jorge was the 'same kind of person'.
He is an incredible master!
She waved her hand, and the guards of Lanxun Manor who arrived all started to move. These guards were also secretly resentful. They were possessed by evil spirits recently. Why are there always people assassinating people in the manor!
Mr. Sevier suffered a lot in those two times. Fortunately, Mr. Sevier was lucky and strong. Not only was he fine, but he also caught the assassin. This bullshit Demacian general... is a waste!
It will be absolutely miserable after tonight.
Camille's blue eyes seemed to be shining in the night sky as she watched them take action. She was indeed determined to improve the defense force of Lanxun Manor after tonight, but before that... the assassins could not be allowed to escape!
She didn't notice that there was another pair of eyes staring at her in the deep night.
…
Ji Xing was still unaware of the incident at Lanxun Manor. On his way back from sending Sarah Raven off to check in, he happened to meet a policewoman on patrol.
"You're still working hard on patrol so late, Officer Caitlin." Ji Xing greeted.
Caitlin was very satisfied with his correct name after correcting it once, and responded: "There is still one hour left, and the annual evolution day has passed. There must be a happy ending."
She spread her hands as if complaining: "You know, probably only tonight will I be able to be on duty until late at night."
"Mrs. Gila Mann is also doing it for your own good." Ji Xing smiled: "Then I won't disturb Officer Caitlin on duty and go back first."
"Wait, Sevier." Caitlin stopped, "Since we just met... let's talk?"
"...Well, if you wish." Ji Xing agreed: "The cafe over there?"
"No, a sheltered place is fine. I'm still on duty. I'll only delay you for ten minutes."
Caitlin stretched out her hand and led Ji Xing to the back of a building. Under the moonlight, her heroic face seemed to be hesitant and troubled with the organization of language.
"Hmm...Sevier, you seem to have a lot of secrets, but you wouldn't do anything that would endanger Piltover and Zaun, right?"
Ji Xing smiled: "Miss Caitlin came to talk to me late at night and asked me this? Even if I know how to do it, I can't admit it if you ask me?"
Caitlin was discouraged: "After all, I am more concerned about a few places, so I couldn't help but ask you one more question... Forget it, that is something the Gray Lady needs to consider. What I really want to ask you is... Sevier, what do you think?
How is Zuan?"
"How about it?"
"I mean the environment, people..."
"Since Officer Caitlin asked this question, she must have learned about the Zaun community in Piltover first, right?" Ji Xing asked in return.
"Yeah." Caitlin affirmed: "I often hear colleagues talk about it, because nine out of ten cases in Piltover occurred there. It is full of violence, fights, gambling and promiscuity, that's because of the people there.
Yes, Mrs. Piltover dislikes the Zaans very much."
"But that place is already a paradise for the real Zaun people. It is a place that the bottom Zaun people try their best to enter."
Caitlin was startled, and her expression seemed to be a little more profound: "Did you say so too?"
"Everyone in Zaun will say this." Ji Xing didn't care where Caitlin's 'also' came from: "Because that's the truth, Zaun is indeed very bad."
"I see..." Caitlin nodded lightly: "Maybe... I should find a chance to go and see for myself? Sevier, being born in Zaun, do you plan to change the environment of Zaun?"
"Yes, that is my next plan." Ji Xing said bluntly: "But I will not help as a savior. Next, Zu'an will build a large-scale universal factory, and most of the employees will ask Zu'an for help."
An people, the Philos family will give everyone equal treatment, and use it to radiate and improve the entire Zaun economy.
In fact, the most troublesome thing about Zaun is the pollution it has accumulated over the past hundreds of years. The sewage pipes of every factory in Piltover ultimately lead to there. If you want to change this, you must touch the overall sentiment of the Piltover nobles.
Benefit."
Caitlin's eyes were slightly strange: "Is this the reason why you joined the Philos family? Your ideal?"
"No, I'm not that noble." Ji Xing said with a smile: "It's just that the prosperous fellow villagers are helping their hometown as much as they can. I don't regard the revitalization of Zu'an as my own responsibility. There are more ideal people to shoulder such lofty goals.
Bar."
Caitlin paused and smiled freely: "Honestness is also a great virtue. Thank you for your candidness, Sewell. Well, I'm glad you can tell me these things. I won't disturb you and go back to rest. Goodbye."
Ji Xing raised his hand: "Happy Evolution Day."
The two waved goodbye, but just after taking a few steps, a blue firework suddenly exploded in the distant sky, which was extremely eye-catching in the night sky.
Ji Xing had just seen this thing in the morning. It was the alarm that exploded on the shore when he returned in the Mingyuan, the law enforcement officer's signal for help!
He turned around unexpectedly and saw Catherine's face full of surprise and nervousness. He thought for a while and said: "Officer Caitlin, logically speaking, because of Mrs. Gila Mann's relationship, I should stop you from going there when you are with me."
Yes, but...just pretend we haven’t seen it before, please be careful."
"Wait a moment, Mr. Sewell."
Caitlin shouted hurriedly: "Do you still remember my request on the boat this morning? But what happens next will have some risks. As a law enforcement officer, I am making an unreasonable request for assistance from you as a 'citizen'. If you can
If so, please accompany me to Jingshui Prison, of course, you can also refuse!"
"Stillwater Prison?"
"It has something to do with Jinx who attacked you and was captured by you that day. I don't have time to explain in detail. If you are willing to help, we will tell you on the way!"
That's it for now... and Ji Xing is indeed a little uneasy. The plot has been changed beyond recognition by him, and if something happens to Caitlin because of this, he will have to bear half of the blame.
Jinx's side...
"I'm not sleepy anyway, let's go."
Caitlin smiled gratefully and ran towards Jingshui Prison. At the same time, she explained to Ji Xing: "The matter started three days ago..."
…
Time goes back three days to Stillwater Prison.
Jinx, who was interrogated once by the congressmen, was escorted back to the cell with a depressed expression.
"Bangbao! Bangba! Are you okay!" Wei, who had been worried for a long time, shouted in surprise and joy: "What did those bastards do to you?!"
"...I'm fine, Wei."
After a pause for several seconds, Jinx curled her lips and vomited: "They just asked me some boring questions, and I didn't answer any of them... I'm not afraid of those Piltover guys."
Wei breathed a sigh of relief and asked strangely: "Then how could you..."
Jinx sat on the ground, hugged her knees and huddled up, looking like a helpless little girl: "The Silkoto people sent me a message."
Wei was startled and said angrily: "Is that bastard planning to put all the blame on you and make you bear the responsibility for that smuggling case?"
"No..." Jinx murmured: "He asked me to stay in peace for a few more days without fearing anyone or admitting any crime. He will come and rescue me."
"...What?" Wei was stunned: "No, don't be fooled by him. It's not surprising for a despicable guy like Hilko to do anything. Maybe this is to provoke you and make you take the initiative.
Way to jump out and take the blame!"
Jinx's eyes flashed with confusion. Sometimes she thought of the happy time she had with Wei when she was a child, and sometimes she remembered how Wei punched her mercilessly. Sometimes it was the scene of Hilko doting on her, and sometimes it was in prison.
Wei cried with surprise when we reunited.
She is only 16 years old and mentally ill.
She can't tell the difference!
The symptoms broke out again. She held her head and rolled on the ground for a long time. She finally woke up under Wei's continuous urgent calls. She heard Wei say: "Bang Bang! Bang Bang! It's okay. Let's not think about those things for now. I don't care about Hilko. I don't care."
other!
By the way, you said...the people from Xierkoto sent you a message? He still has subordinates in Pi City, and he can even get through to Stillwater Prison?"
"...Hmm." Jinx responded silently: "It's the police chief who arrested you."
"Marcos?!"
"Chief Marcus?!"
Vi's voice echoed over and over with another voice, and Caitlin, who was hiding in the dark and eavesdropping on the sisters' conversation, came out with a face full of shock.
"What did you just say? The mastermind behind the smuggling case is related to Sheriff Marcos?!"
"...Damn law enforcement officer, how dare you eavesdrop on our conversation?!" The fierce words and expressions sent by the two sisters at the same time seemed to be eating up Caitlin.
…
"I was shocked at the time. I planned to eavesdrop on more content, but couldn't help but walked out."
Caitlin gasped and said to Ji Xing: "When I asked them, they were very uncooperative. It wasn't until I found a way to send them to the same cell that the one named Wei was willing to say a few words to me.
Sheriff Marcos did not collude with the smugglers in the bottom city, but was bribed with money and became that Silko's... lackey."
After a pause, she continued: "I bought them some delicious food, and I learned more from Wei's mouth, including an accident that happened in Zu'an six years ago, and the previous law enforcement officer Sergeant
How did Sheriff Grayson die in Hilko's plot?
She taught me how to shoot when I was young, and she is a teacher I have always respected. I became a law enforcement officer largely influenced by her.
So after hearing these contents, I made up my mind to capture Hilko personally and expose Marcos' true face! But you know, if my mother knew about it, she would never allow me to participate, even because of some of Wei's words...
…”
She hesitated for a moment: "It's not that I don't have confidence in my mother, but how should I put it..."
"Are you worried that Congressman Gila Mann is minimizing big issues due to some political and stability considerations?"
"That's right." Caitlin said: "Only by getting irrefutable evidence, or even catching Hilko, will there be no more accidents! And I...actually need this to prove my ability, so that my mother will no longer stop me.
I became a law enforcement officer.
I convinced Vi that she would help me capture Silko at the cost of letting her and her sister leave Piltover and Zaun after it was over. Her sister Jinx and Blast also acquiesced.
But besides Wei, I couldn’t find any more helpers in this matter, so I suddenly thought of you, Mr. Sewell, because... the front tooth in Jinx’s mouth was knocked out by you.”
Ji Xing laughed: "Are you sure this won't have the opposite effect and make her fight with all her strength when she sees me?"
"Who knows, maybe Vi will also attack you with her sister?" Caitlin was still in the mood to tease: "But I don't think you will care, right?"
