Watching Colin and Devlin walking out of the gym on the screen, Captain Robin withdrew his gaze.
"Any new discoveries?" Professor Verna's voice came from the small radio nearby.
Captain Robin said in a low voice: "He was always sitting, not speaking, and making no unnecessary movements. But for some reason, he was out of tune with his surroundings, and felt very inconsistent. And at the last moment, his body seemed to show some kind of
Hidden danger.”
"With your characteristics, since you discovered that he had some violations, you didn't find the source of the violations?" A chuckle came from the radio, "That means there is indeed a secret in him, do you still want to recruit him?"
"I have never given him a guarantee," Robin said matter-of-factly, "However, whether it is from a case perspective, a personal perspective, or his talent, I have to ensure that he
In sight."
"Oh, a ruthless man, do you just treat others as tools?"
"No, I am very optimistic about him, otherwise I would not spend so much energy observing him," Robin said calmly: "If it were other people involved in the case, I would not give them such a chance, but this Colin
Varlan, his performance exceeded my expectations, so I am willing to give him some opportunities, but you know very well that there are some things that even I cannot decide."
When Colin got into the LMW car again, he noticed that Devlin's hands were shaking with excitement. So, feeling ominous, he took the initiative to request to drive.
"Do you know the way?" Devlin asked, without any intention of giving in.
Colin sighed and said, "Drive slowly, I have something to ask you."
"It still sounds very dangerous." Colin muttered, and then at Devlin's urging, he carried the cat into the kitchen.
"This is not easy for you. After all, you are involved in a murder case and you are also suspected of major crimes. Don't be depressed. You can wait. A new captain will come over in a few days." At this point, Devlin's mood changed.
Somewhat depressed, "That captain is here to replace Captain Jameson and reintegrate our team."
"Is this someone watching me? It's definitely not someone from the special search team. After all, they know I don't live here anymore. Is that a debt collector? According to Data Eye's analysis, this person comes almost every day, but the duration of each time
He’s not long and doesn’t look like a professional debt collector. So, could it be the force behind the wrist-slitter?”
Colin always felt that something was wrong.
"You're worrying too much. It's not about this at all." Colin rubbed his brows and thought to himself: "I should take another half-day off to sort out the affairs in the apartment and avoid the forensics."
"..."
This scene happened to be seen by Devlin outside the door, and her mood suddenly became even lower. Then the red-haired girl gritted her teeth and interrupted the harmonious time of one person and one cat: "Don't just play with the cat, now is not the time to enjoy it!"
If you have time in two days, you have to go back to your apartment, prepare some materials and information, and take some photos of your residence."
"No! It's scratched!" Devlin's face turned pale, "Car paint is very expensive!"
"Pay attention ahead!" Colin's voice became urgent when he saw the oncoming tram.
The road was rough and the people in the car were up and down, but Colin finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Mystery may not be a good thing for us." Devlin's expression was slightly serious, and she still wanted to turn away, "However, I can understand your thoughts, after all, I came here like this back then, well, but you tell me
These are useless, I don’t have the power to recruit team members, and I can’t contact the assessment office.”
"The 0-faced knight? What is that?" Devlin thought for a moment, "I'm talking about the vigilante!" She took her hands off the steering wheel and made a flying gesture, "Haven't you seen the news? That belt
A man wearing a mask?"
"..."
Devlin said, throwing a bunch of keys and a Polaroid to Colin.
"Work hard! Leave a good impression on the police station! Don't worry, your salary will still be paid. You are considered full time!"
"Is that so?" Colin's heart moved and he asked: "Then why did your team come here? Serial killer?"
The next day, after Colin got up, he met Devlin again at breakfast.
"Mr. Varlan, you are finally back!"
After a quick glance, a lot of data appeared in front of him, and layer upon layer of analysis, based on Colin's changing thoughts, finally helped him locate a person's footprints.
"Reliable! What is his origin?" Colin became interested.
"Why take pictures?" Colin has never taken time to go back these days. He still remembers that there is a spiritual gun that needs to be dealt with, but Devlin's sudden words still surprised him, "Is it safe to go back now?"
"Depress the clutch and put into gear." Colin looked over and reminded in a low voice.
"Forehead……"
Colin really wanted to stop Devlin, because he knew there were some things he shouldn't know, and it wouldn't do him much good to know, but he just couldn't help but be curious.
"Well, it seems you really don't know." Devlin took hold of the steering wheel again and asked Colin enthusiastically, "About a year and a half ago, a vigilante who secretly fought crime appeared in Bulsenberg.
Police! At first, he was just making small fuss. Until a month ago, he... In short, he did some big things, which made the headquarters believe that he was an extraordinary person who had not yet registered, and his level was not low, but he successively sent people and
He avoided contact with him, so this time Captain Robin was asked to personally lead the team to search for his traces."
"Because every team has a use, there are too many things to deal with, and there are so many jurisdictions. Clovis is a big country! There are eight major regions alone!" Devlin shook her head, "For example,
, Captain Robin and their original missions were not what they are now..."
"Forget it, I don't care about this, but if you plan to pursue her, you have to be careful." Devlin picked up the bread on the table, walked quickly to the door, bent down and picked up her shoes, "She spends her time dealing with dead people every day.
, much more than living people! Hum hum, this is really big news!”
She glanced down doubtfully.
"Can't say!" Devlin immediately became vigilant: "That person has a lot of involvement behind him, but you are still safe in the Central Region. Just be careful not to be alone, and choose to act during the day."
Colin followed the sound and saw a young policeman in police uniform.
Colin suspected that if he continued to talk to Miss Moran, he might be put under house arrest by the authorities because he heard too many secrets, so he decisively changed the subject: "Okay, let's talk about another question. I want to
Join the special search team, what can you do?"
Amid the helpless screams of the red-haired girl, Colin took over the steering wheel. After parking the car, Devlin squatted in front of the car, lost in thought.
"Vigilante wearing a mask?" Colin had a strange expression, "Baitman? I'll go, hold the steering wheel quickly! The road here is very narrow!"
"...They are looking for a very handsome city hero!"
With this in mind, he called the funeral home again.
Devlin finally regained some of her vitality, and she said feebly: "Meat, a lot of meat..."
Devlin laughed. She turned the key in the ignition and stepped on the accelerator. The engine hummed and the entire car body trembled.
"I can't tell you, this is a rule." Devlin wanted to turn her head to speak, but Colin reminded her to look ahead, "However, we are so tired today, and thanks to you, you really guessed it right! This case
, is indeed related to a cult ritual! Maybe, this will be the first major case I solve!" Her spirit was very high!
Only then did Colin think that he had dug a big hole for himself yesterday in order to show his holiness in front of others.
Colin protested silently.
You know, the windows of Colin's house are all opened in very hidden positions, so the light is not good, but because of this, it is easier to determine the hidden purpose.
After hanging up the phone, Colin was in a happy mood. He hummed a little tune and boarded the public trolley bus. Half an hour later, he returned to the unknown apartment building where his home was located.
"Thanks for the reminder!" Devlin was startled, turned her head back quickly, turned the steering wheel suddenly, and turned into the alley where they lived.
"Because there are only a few team members in total, don't you think we have enough manpower?" Devlin finally turned her head, and she made a helpless expression, "Although the members of a team have their own division of labor, they often only have
Four or five people, including a logistics support staff. A little more, just six people, extraordinary people are still very scarce. In addition, the captain of our jurisdiction, he... Forget it, let's not mention it.
He got it."
This person's footprints are all around, but they are all in corners, walls, etc. According to the data analysis of his left eye, from this person's position, he can clearly observe the entrance to the apartment and the location of his home!
At this moment, an unexpected person came from a distance.
After he saw Colin, he was stunned for a moment, and then smiled in surprise.
Looking around, he didn't find anyone suspicious, but he hesitated about whether to go home.
"Mistake," she responded in a low voice, then calmed down her emotions, carefully put into gear, and started the car, "What do you want to ask?"
At this time, Devlin stepped on the brakes to slow down, then turned the steering wheel and turned toward the small building where they lived, and then...
Then, he resumed his thinking. After sorting out his thoughts, he asked: "Since there are few people, why not merge the teams and increase the number of people in each team? If there are enough people..."
But when he was about to walk over, his heart moved and he opened his left eye to search for traces around him.
"Your door has been replaced. Here is the key."
"Then how can I join?" Colin asked, "What suggestions do you have? Or, if I want to receive formal mystical teachings, what should I do?"
Didn’t you say everything?
It was you who took the initiative to drive me.
"Not exactly, we are here for Teblon's experiment..." Devlin finally became alert mid-sentence, "Hey, you are a person involved in the case, don't get close to me."
"..."
Crunch.
"You are the police officer who was at the crime scene. How did you..."
Old Carl didn't say much when he received the call. The old man thought Colin was working for Chief Tebell and the others, so he agreed readily and promised not to deduct his salary.
Devlin then said again: "By the way, you performed well today! Let me look good in front of my friends and cook something delicious tonight."
Colin said: "How much do you know about this case and the three deceased people?"
"No, it's because..." Colin thought for a moment and decided to tell part of the truth, "I have been exposed to the supernatural and mysterious, and I am very interested in it, so I want to seek more knowledge."
But the wheel didn't move.
Whoosh!
From the opposite side, an orange flash of light rushed toward him, and then he was caught in the air by Colin, relieved, hugged, and caressed, all in one go!
Then, Miss Petty, the orange cat, squinted her eyes and "meowed" in Colin's arms.
Colin wanted to comfort her, but he didn't know how to speak. He could only say: "What would you like to eat tonight?"
"This time, I'm afraid it's one month's salary, one month, one..."
"Why do you want to join the special search team?" Devlin looked curious, and she almost turned her head again, "Didn't you just get a good job? Are you unhappy working in a funeral home? After listening to your analysis today, I think
This job is very suitable for you! You will definitely be able to do it well!"
"Photographs and information are all needed for the registration of extraordinary people." Devlin raised a finger and emphasized: "It should be fine for you to go back. We have already found out the identity of the person who cut his wrists, so you are not in any danger for the time being.
Go with peace of mind."
"What happened between you and Chloe?" She looked curious. "She called me last night and asked about you."
"Okay, let's have barbecue." Colin nodded and opened the door.
"Sure enough, there are people in the government who are easy to get things done. No wonder so many people like to pretend to be powerful."
"City Hero? What is that?" Colin thought for a moment, "Fake Knight?"
Colin hesitated for a moment and asked: "Speaking of which, why didn't I see many members of the team? Even on that day, the day when the man who cut his wrists died, I didn't see too many special search team members before and after."
Suddenly, he was surprised to find that there was a vague thread connecting him to the police officer in front of him!
That’s it for today. Unfortunately, I finally got a low-grade fever. I will try to resume two updates tomorrow.
I was a little tired in the morning. After making breakfast for the whole family, I couldn't hold it in anymore and fell asleep again. I got up at noon to make lunch and disinfected the whole house again. Finally, I couldn't bear the discomfort anymore.
When I woke up in the afternoon, I already had a low fever. I didn’t write any code today. I just rested. I only got up to change and save the manuscript, so there was only one picture, leaving some buffer. I will try to recover tomorrow...
