In this way, Rolle spent the whole night on the sofa. At dawn the next day, the little milk cat huddled in his shirt pocket woke up first, exposed a pair of pointed ears from his pocket, listened around, and then
It came out of his pocket.
The little cat followed suit and walked to the window first. He glanced down and found that a high-end black steam car had parked downstairs. He quickly rolled and crawled back to Rolle and patted him with his furry little paws.
She rubbed his face and screamed in Luo Er's ear with a sweet voice.
"Okay, okay, wake up, wake up."
Luo Er muttered, stretched out his hand to scratch the little milk cat's head, and opened his eyes.
The little cat took advantage of the situation and licked his cheek, then got back into his shirt pocket.
Rolle got up from the sofa, washed himself, took out a carrot from his left hand, tore it into small pieces, and fed it to the little milk cat in his pocket.
A moment later, Secretary Afu knocked on the door of the apartment. Rolle followed him out without waking up his daughter or Nido.
Today's fishing operation officially begins.
After last night's busy work, 19 capable operators were assigned to various positions. Some were disguised as homeless people, some as waiters, and some as passers-by. They even occupied the Baker Street restaurant in advance.
There are several high points near the restaurant where you can monitor the movements of the entire street in all directions.
Rolle's temporary headquarters is located on the roof of a 12-story office building, which is the tallest building in the neighborhood.
Operator Truffle is still following him, and has activated the tracking secret attached to the letter in advance.
He was showing a wandering expression, rolling his eyes, pointing on a map, and finally stopped at the location of Ivya Villa.
"Here now."
It's amazing, it's like satellite positioning.
Rohr couldn't help but admired in his heart, and then turned to ask the secretary beside him:
"By the way, is there still no result in the interrogation of the orc spy by the Ministry of Security?"
Although the Ministry of Security promised to notify Rohr as soon as the results are known, after all, the spy was discovered by the Gray Ghost operator, but today they have to arrest the enemy's higher-level online. Security
There's actually no movement from the Ministry's side.
"I have been following up on this matter, and they have indeed not yet come up with the results of the trial, and they have also encountered a lot of trouble."
Secretary Afu replied.
As the real power department of the empire, the Ministry of National Security naturally has the cooperation and assistance of various extraordinary people, including some who are specialized in interrogation. They can use secret arts or spells to realize confessions, truth serum, and even read minds and spirits.
Control the same effect.
But these tricks cannot be used directly on the orc spy.
This guy is indeed a very professional spy. He has very complicated anti-interrogation arrangements. He has a special secret technique buried deep in his consciousness, commonly known as a 'spiritual bomb'. Once someone uses the secret technique to probe his thinking,
The secret technique will take effect, turning him into an idiot who doesn't know anything in an instant.
Although this is not a new trick, all the major forces have made similar arrangements on their own spies, and there are ways to dismantle and crack it, but the problem is that this orc spy uses some kind of unconventional psychic bomb.
It's not the same as the common type here in humans.
The physical differences between humans and orcs cannot be generalized, not to mention that conscious thinking is a complex field. In addition, the alien alliance is far away from the mainland and rarely communicates with the human mainland. We know very little about them and have no information about their existing extraordinary systems.
Not much.
This makes it very troublesome to crack, requiring time and professional assistance, and scholars who can conduct research in this area are currently paralyzed.
"So, they can only use some traditional and barbaric methods for interrogation now, but that guy is also a tough guy, and he won't do anything even if he is tortured with salt, roasted or beaten..."
Secretary Ah Fu said a little embarrassed.
"Oh... If you had told me earlier, I could help with this."
Rohr was a little speechless.
But it's okay, once the owl is caught, the two of them can be interrogated together to avoid having to knock themselves out twice.
So they continued to wait patiently until noon, when Eveya went to the high-end restaurant below to have dinner as scheduled. Then she followed the joint method and stuffed the note with the information into the candy box and threw it into the alley next to the restaurant.
garbage can.
Everything seemed to be going smoothly, and Eveya didn't cause any trouble.
This morning, Luo Er had someone tell her that her daughter was under his supervision and was safe for the time being and would not be implicated in this matter.
I believe that Eveya can understand the hint in these words and knows that her daughter has been controlled by Luo Er, so she should not dare to act recklessly.
After throwing away the candy box, she took the car and left, leaving Luo Er and others behind to monitor the alley below.
Since the afternoon, some homeless people have been coming to look through the trash cans one after another, and there are quite a lot of them. Since the attack in the imperial capital, many industries have been attacked and destroyed, and there are more homeless people in the city.
But these homeless people were all focused on the things that had been thrown away, and were not interested in a beautiful-looking empty box. A few of them picked up the candy box and shook it. When they found that there was nothing inside, they threw it away.
aside.
When night fell, the restaurant closed, and a lot of waste food was dumped out, attracting a large group of homeless people to loot it, but no one touched the candy box, and it kept lying quietly in a corner of the alley.
This fishing is a severe test for people's patience. Rolle has drank countless pots of coffee, forcing himself to maintain a state of concentration.
Some of the strong tramps below carve up the food dumped by the restaurant in two or three times, but there are still some thin or old tramps left. Although they have caught nothing, they still refuse to leave, waiting for those
Only after the strong guy left did he dare to dig through the trash can.
Among them, there are a few people who don't look like tramps. Although they are equally ragged and dirty, their temperament is different from other tramps. They look a little shy, like that.
He had just become a homeless person, and he had not yet lost face.
Rolle looked at these new homeless people and was thinking in his mind.
If I were an owl, finding these new homeless people is obviously much more reliable than finding those skilled workers.
Although those old tramps may be destitute, they are not stupid. They know the survival rules of tramps and will not do many things that make them feel dangerous or wrong. They know that some benefits must be exchanged with their lives.
In newspapers, we often see news about a certain homeless man dying mysteriously.
In this world with extraordinary powers, ordinary people who abide by the law may encounter unexpected events like the attack on the imperial capital at any time, not to mention homeless vagrants. If they are not careful enough, they will not survive that long.
Moreover, if these people have been hanging out on the street for a long time, there will always be people who know and pay attention to them. If they suddenly disappear, it is likely to arouse suspicion.
But on the other hand, those newcomers who have not yet adapted will not think so much. They have not yet adapted to the survival rules of this industry. They will be more greedy than skilled workers and miss the days of having a family infinitely. In order to get rid of the current predicament.
, they dare to do anything.
And not many people know them, so even if they disappear suddenly, it would be difficult to trace them.
For an act like sending a candy box to a certain place, these newcomers are obviously more suitable.
While Luo Er was thinking about it, he saw a homeless man wearing glasses, rummaging through the trash can to find a few pieces of fruit peels, and then turned his attention to the candy box.
"Ah... it's lemon flavored. I remember that my girlfriend liked this taste very much. Unfortunately, she has defrauded me of my house and savings..."
As he bent down to pick up the candy box, he made a seemingly reasonable excuse for his behavior.
Then he put the candy box close to his body, tightened his tattered coat, and began to wander the streets.
Without Rohr's need to speak, operator Truffle had already activated his secret technique and started tracking.
The other operators, who had been waiting impatiently for a long time, also took action and followed slowly from multiple directions while maintaining a safe enough distance.
They followed all the way to the "moat" in the city.
This moat was left over when the imperial capital was still a castle. Later, the imperial capital was expanded and the city walls were demolished. The moat should have been filled in, but later, probably because of issues such as aesthetics and water use, they simply continued to dig.
, connected with the river outside and became an artificial river.
With the continuous expansion of the imperial capital, the moat has passed through the city from the south, forming a pretty good landscape when overlooking it.
Most of the homeless people live by the river. Various simple houses are densely arranged along the river embankment. Various waste materials are piled outside. Only a few fires can be used as lighting.
The homeless man with eyes had a hut made of cardboard here. He squeezed in and carefully looked around, then took out the candy box, opened it, and took out the note inside.
He spread the note on the floor, lit four short candles in the four corners of the room, and whispered something in a low voice.
"This seems to be some kind of communication ritual?"
A young operator paid close attention to what was going on in the room through his senses and quickly reported to Luo Er.
"Or is this some kind of summoning ritual? Is he trying to summon that owl?"
As the young operator spoke, his face suddenly turned pale.
Anyone who can respond to this kind of summoning ritual must be at least a demigod.
Could it be that what we have to deal with tonight is a demigod?
This was something he had never dared to imagine before.
For a third-level transcendent like him, a demigod is simply a mountain that is difficult to look up at. It is unreasonable to argue against him.
Even if there is a demigod on one's own side, under the collision of such a high-ranking powerful person, just the aftermath can make oneself disappear into ashes.
The young operator became more and more nervous as he thought about it, and quickly looked at his companions around him.
Secretary Afu and his captain Truffle also realized the danger, their faces became extremely solemn, and their breathing began to quicken.
But on the other hand, their new director still looked calm, showing only a little impatience, as if he was complaining about why the other party didn't come out yet.
This... is the new director really so confident that he can win over a demigod?
Is this... the courage of a strong man?
Luo Er also noticed that the reactions of several subordinates were a little strange, smiled and said:
"Relax, we can succeed."
He simply thought that his subordinates were excited and nervous about seeing a major espionage case being solved.
And while he was speaking, the four candles in the paper house suddenly went out together.
Immediately afterwards, another shrill scream came from inside.
Luo Er's face became frozen, and he quickly drew his sword, climbed over the river embankment, and rushed over.
But when he came outside the paper house, he could already see streams of blood seeping out from the gaps in the floor.
The next second, the entire paper house floated in the air, folded and deformed in mid-air, and finally formed the shape of a paper man the size of an adult man. Then a large black smoke poured out from behind, covering the paper man.
, turned into a dark figure.
It turned out that this was the owl that Eveya described. No wonder she couldn't tell the difference between men, women and children, because the other person's body under the smoke was not human at all.
"You have been surrounded, put down your weapons and surrender!"
Roll drew his sword and threatened.
"Haha, ant."
The paper man sneered in a less than standard imperial language, then made a gesture of spreading his arms and continued:
"It seems that the information I received is correct. Your empire is now at its weakest. Even I can invade at will. In the past, your strong men would definitely notice..."
"But now, your strong men have not recovered from the attack and are already too busy to take care of themselves. To me, the Imperial Capital has become like a back garden where I can come and go freely."
"The fact that you are able to find this place means that Eveya betrayed me. Haha, you are such a cheating little bitch. Her duplicity did not surprise me. I should have killed her and all her pointed-eared compatriots long ago!"
The other party was chatting a lot, but because his voice was hoarse and poorly developed, it sounded like bird talk and he basically didn't understand it.
So he had no choice but to answer:
"You talk a lot of nonsense!"
After saying that, the sword light in his hand flashed, and several sword qi slashed at the opponent's limbs at the same time.
Seeing Rohr actually using swordsmanship to deal with him, the owl couldn't help laughing and said:
"Haha, you wouldn't think that such poor swordsmanship can hurt..."
As a result, before he could finish his words, he saw that his limbs were all cut off, and his whole body fell to the ground with a squeak from mid-air, as if a human had lost its limbs.
"How...how is it possible?"
"How could swordsmanship possibly hurt me?"
