Chapter 11 Victorian Intelligence and the Extraordinary
In the foggy capital of England, three black cars slowly drove into a historic manor. It had rained just a few hours ago, but now there was no trace of water on the ground. This detail did not fully reflect the wealth of the people here.
A British gentleman and six servants were already waiting in front of the big house. The leading old British gentleman said: "You are well, Miss Mephala. The last time we met... you were only 12 years old."
Walking at the front, the tall visitor with shawl-long black hair took off her hat, revealing a heroic female face. Even the silver-rimmed round glasses on the bridge of her nose gave her a touch of majesty: "Butler Walter,
Please lead the way. Right now, I work for the Victoria Intelligence Bureau."
The British gentleman smiled and led them into the inner house. The girls Yuffie and Luoli Kallen were already waiting inside, with three times the steaming black tea placed on the table.
"Please take a seat," Yuffie said first, "I am the head of the Lampeluki family, Yuffie Lampeluki."
"First meeting," Mephala sat down, crossed her hands in white gloves, and looked at the two girls in front of her through her round glasses with a slit in her eyes like a snake, "I am a civil servant affiliated with Her Majesty the Queen's government.
, Head of the Victoria Intelligence Section, Mephala Inheim Hirsing."
"This is the special department established this year, to be precise, 135 days ago." Mephala said calmly: "The external name is the Land Search Committee under the Privy Council."
At this time, Yuffie also had an impression. The Land Retrieval Committee has recently become famous in the British upper class. It has law enforcement power no less than that of the Royal Police. It must cooperate with multiple departments during operations. The nobles do not dare to interfere, and they all
Order your subordinates and the company to fully cooperate with them.
It is said that a secret meeting was held between the nobles and the financial group to reach a consensus. Originally, the Lamperuki family was also eligible to participate in this meeting. However, after the death of the family leader, only Yuffie, a underage girl, was left. She even lost the family property.
She has not yet completely taken control, so she was not invited to the secret meeting of nobles at all, but she was directly informed of the results of the meeting——
‘Cooperate fully with the National Territory Search Committee’.
Only now did Yuffie find out that the Land Retrieval Committee was the Victoria Intelligence Division, so she nodded and asked, "Then what questions do you have? If it was the incident at the Blackthorn Building yesterday, I think our Lampeluki family has entrusted all the information.
The person who hired the playing cards is most likely my aunt's family, Baron Flaxman."
Mephala said: "Don't worry, except for the 'killer' who claims to be from the Immortal Palace, the incident has been fully investigated and the card base hidden in the Fog City has also been uprooted. As for Flaxman... I believe you Lan
The Peruki family has its own plans."
Yuffie: "Of course, what are the requirements of the Victoria Intelligence Division?"
"I'm here for the 'killer' from Asgard," Mephala said: "So far, we still can't find any trace of this person, and a comprehensive search has been launched in trains, planes and other places, but I think
The chances of finding him are very slim."
Yuffie touched Kallen's little head and said with a wry smile: "We also want to find him. The Lamperuki family is willing to pay any reward for his contribution... However, he disappeared."
"Yes, he disappeared." Mephala said: "Not only are there surveillance videos from five directions, but nearly a hundred people also saw him disappear with their own eyes."
"It's not magic, it's not a mechanism, there's no hypnosis, there's no smoke. It's as if all the materials that make up it have disintegrated into the tiniest particles and completely blended into the air."
Yuffie picked up the tea cup, looked at the light rippling on the surface of the black tea liquid, and said, "His marksmanship is also... extraordinary and holy."
"Yes, and there is an extremely large organization behind him, which will thoroughly investigate this card operation." Mephala said: "He can accurately know which guests are disguised assassins, and he will start without hesitation, every step of the way."
Every shot is just right.”
"Based on the compilation of our Intelligence Section and the confessions of the Solitaire Assassins, we all believe that this operation was perfect. Even if you can resist the heavily armed assassins, the bomb hidden on the ninth floor will detonate, let alone the ones on standby outside.
assassin."
"Rough and simple assassination, Solitaire always likes this method, your chance of survival is very slim..."
Yuffie said: "Unfortunately, Mr. Killer appeared and helped us."
"Perhaps you didn't feel it clearly when you were in it, but based on the clues compiled later, we found that this Xuanguo killer is very scary." Mephala sighed: "In such a fierce gun battle, he can still protect some guests.
The fastest way to kill the assassin without any injuries on your body... You know that the assassination process has been posted online, right?"
"I know, and it can't be deleted except by shutting down the website server." Yuffie said with a smile, "I really didn't expect that I would be so famous."
"On the Internet, many people think this is a movie, just because the killer is so cautious, calm, and has a perfect killing method that only appears in movies. In reality, it is just a fantasy." Mephala said:
"And the organization behind him also controls huge energy... Moreover, we asked many people based on the location of the video camera, but without exception, they did not find the existence of the shooting device."
Listening to Mephala peeling off the cocoon like this, Yuffie also had a hint of understanding: "In other words, the killer is a more shocking existence than the cards?"
"Yes, although the details cannot be disclosed, the organization behind the killer is definitely beyond everyone's imagination."
Mephala nodded and said, "And I am here now because I want to find out this person's purpose."
At this time, both Mephala and Yuffie naturally looked at Kallen, who was sitting obediently on the side. Kallen blinked, sat down next to her sister, and held on to Yuffie's sleeves.
"There is no doubt that he wants to protect you two." Mephala said: "But based on the killer's performance, his most important goal is probably to protect Miss Kallen."
"But my sister..." Yuffie hugged Kallen gently, wondering: "Is there anything special about her...?"
Mephala paused and turned to look at the British gentleman. The British gentleman immediately understood and asked the other servants to leave. Yuffie suddenly said: "Butler Walter, there is no need to avoid it."
Mephala didn't care and asked all her men to withdraw. When only the four of them were left in the living room, Mephala said, "I suspect Miss Kallen has special talents."
"Special talent?" Yuffie was puzzled.
"Actually, some financial groups and nobles already know about it, and Lampeluki also belongs to the class that is qualified to know, so I will speak frankly." Mephala looked at Yuffie and said seriously: "What method do you think the killer used to disappear?"
"Huh?" Yuffie didn't quite understand why Mephala suddenly changed the topic, but she still replied: "Probably... some unknown ability."
"We think so too." Mephala took a sip of black tea and said, "However, half a year ago, people like this who 'possess some unknown ability' began to appear one after another."
"Generally speaking, such people are called extraordinary people, and their special abilities... are called superpowers."
Yuffie, who was born in a noble family, quickly figured out the reason: "Is the goal of the Victoria Intelligence Department..."
"Yes, it is the duty of our Intelligence Section to search for extraordinary people and search for superpower information."
Yuffie was silent for a moment. She was not an ordinary person, and she also experienced the special event last night, and Mephala did not need to lie. She only needed a phone call to find out the truth: "You think my sister is one of them? But she
Even at such a young age, I have never shown anything..."
Mephala said: "We don't know what your sister's abilities are. The abilities of extraordinary people are all kinds of strange. But it is not difficult to check whether there are such talents..."

Treasure chest?
Ren Suo then remembered that he had cleared the free game and in addition to merit, he also received a treasure box. However, he was too sleepy and tired at that time and went to bed directly.
There is only one item in the content storage library, which is the one-star treasure chest.
"One-star treasure chest: Don't expect any artifacts to come out of it."
"Turn it on?"
Of course Ren Suo chose yes, but the next second, the system popped up a prompt: "The number of keys you have left in the treasure chest is: 0."
Ren Suo blinked.
Do you need a key to open a treasure chest?
Suddenly seeing such a normal request, Ren Suo was a little confused.
"Yes, do you want to top up money..." Ren Suo was already ready to take out his wallet. After all, this small world game console looks mysterious and unpredictable, and the game process played in it will actually happen exactly the same in reality...
Isn’t it just money? Take it, take it!
Ren Suo knew that he must have encountered a great opportunity now!
However, the system prompts: "Searching for keys...Searching for keys..."
"Do you want to keep searching? Note that if the key is successfully searched, 1 merit point will be automatically deducted. When the merit reaches 0, the search will automatically stop."
What the hell? But it seems that the merit points will not be deducted until the key is obtained, which means it doesn’t matter if it is left on. Ren Suo looked at himself and saw that he still had 15 merit points, so he left it on.
"When I tear apart half a mile of the world of morning and dusk, three feet of green light will wash away the smoke and dust~"
The phone suddenly rang. Ren Suo picked up the phone and took a look at it. He immediately answered the call and said, "Director Ye, what's the matter?"
"Yes, Xiaosuo, there's an emergency here, can you come over before three o'clock?"
"What is it? Why are you in such a hurry?"
"I got busy and forgot that there is a civil service physical examination today, and new recruits who have not yet joined the job must also take part. This matter is urgent and needs to be completed today. Then I remembered that you new recruits have not been notified yet, and your superiors require you to participate."
