Two sneaky little men were moving quickly carrying a heavy object. Suddenly, several figures jumped out from around the corner. One person grabbed one hand and pushed them to the ground.
Dang! The heavy thing made a crisp sound after it fell to the ground.
"The black dog on Glenling Street!" one of the little men blurted out in shock and anger.
Snap, he was slapped hard on the face, and a man wearing a straight black uniform walked out of the darkness, bent down and squatted in front of him: "Please call us Mr. Police."
Since the headquarters of the Holm Kingdom Police Department is located on Granling Street in the administrative district, gang members, small gang criminals and some citizens use Granling Street as the popular name of the Police Department.
This slap woke up the little man, and he said fearfully: "Yes, Mr. Policeman."
I heard that the black-skinned dogs on Granling Street have a unique apprentice-level alchemy item on their body. Being hit by it is like an electric shock, which will cause long-lasting general paralysis and pain. Life is worse than death, so facing these black-skinned dogs
Never show off when you are a dog.
"Your crime of stealing manhole covers was caught on the spot. The evidence is conclusive and you will be sent to the municipal court for trial. Well, it is the crime of endangering public safety by dangerous methods. If nothing goes wrong, you will spend the rest of your life happily in the mine.
, Of course, if you are willing to become Mr. Magician’s experimental object, you may be able to return to Rentat in a year.” The senior police detective patted the little thief’s face.
The little thief was shocked: "The crime of endangering public safety by dangerous means...Mr. Police, what is this crime? I, we just stole manhole covers and sold them for money!"
This long list of names sounds scary at first glance, and it is obviously a serious crime.
"Hey, I told you bastards a long time ago that you should pay attention to the Holm Kingdom Voice and other radio stations, and pay attention to the latest laws and regulations. The crime of endangering public safety in dangerous ways was added to the Kingdom's Code last month.
The specific meaning of the crime is... In this era, thieves who don't know how to listen to the radio will be eliminated sooner or later!" the senior police detective stood up straight and said.
This was a crime specifically raised by Natasha when the House of Lords discussed the Aircraft Regulations and Road Safety Regulations to prevent someone from deliberately using aircraft disasters or car accidents to achieve murderous purposes.
"I, we just stole the manhole cover..." The two little thieves looked like they were about to cry. It was such a terrible sight to spend the rest of their lives in the mines. As for reducing their crimes by becoming a magician's experimental item, they wanted to
I never thought that it might be more terrifying than death!
The senior police detective snorted: "You stole the manhole cover and let a large number of citizens fall into it and suffered trauma. Isn't this the crime of endangering public safety by dangerous methods? Please repent after you get to the mine!"
"Mr. policeman, please spare us. If we knew about this crime, we wouldn't dare to do such a thing."
"Mr. Police, I, I have important information!"
The two little thieves rushed to the tunnel.
The senior police detective nodded with satisfaction and ordered the police around him: "Take them back, interrogate them carefully, and give me the recorded confession first."
Seeing the two little thieves being escorted away with tears in their eyes, a policeman next to them said flatteringly: "Boss, you are so powerful and you managed to trick them into getting important information just by scaring them."
"Who told them not to listen to the radio? To be honest, I really want to put this crime on them. They made me fall down in public this morning!" the senior police detective said angrily.
No wonder the boss was limping when he walked today. It turned out that he almost fell into the sewer...
The senior police detective ordered the other policemen: "Put the manhole cover back in place and find something to lock it to prevent it from being stolen again before dawn. Hey, how can we do such a small thing? There are simply not enough manpower! There are still other cases.
Stop following me! A special department should be set up to protect this kind of thing."
The remaining policemen worked together to lift the manhole cover back to its original place and put it away. At this time, one of them suddenly thought: "Did someone fall when we were rounding up the thief just now?"
"How is that possible? It's already late at night! And we haven't stared at this place for only a few minutes." The policeman who had previously flattered the senior police detective said without any worries, and then took out a specially prepared bottle of apprentice-level alchemy potion and poured it on the
With the gap in the manhole cover like this, the manhole cover will stick firmly in the cold tonight until it slowly melts and disappears during the day.
This is their temporary method to deal with similar incidents, a method specially created by magicians.
After doing all this, the police officers who were rushing back to Nuannuan Granling Street quickly left.
Not long after, the manhole cover suddenly made a "dong", "dong", "dong" sound, but with the help of a special alchemy potion, the manhole cover did not move at all.
In the dark sewer, Nasdel felt a rush of blood rush into his mind. What happened to Rentat? He digged a hole in the middle of the street without hesitation? He fell so hard that he couldn't control his body and was covered in blood!
Angry, frustrated, and stunned emotions welled up in his heart, making him want to leave his werewolf appearance and knock the manhole cover away.
"Calm down, calm down, don't expose the identity of the werewolf, otherwise you will be unable to complete the mission of His Excellency the Prince." Nasdel said to himself over and over again in his heart.
Finally, he controlled his anger and took a deep breath of satisfaction, only to be almost vomited by the foul smell.
"I am a calm and wise werewolf that Your Excellency Prince values, and I must not be like other reckless guys!" It said to itself again, and then relied on the werewolf's powerful self-healing ability to stagger towards other directions in the sewer.
After walking for a while, another roar broke out in the sewer: "Asshole, it's stuck here too.
"Damn it, what on earth do the people of Rentat think?"
After walking a long distance, just when Nasdel could no longer control himself, the manhole cover above showed no signs of sticking.
He pushed open the manhole cover, climbed out, and took a deep breath of fresh, cold breath. He felt that this was the most delicious fermented thing in his life.
Even an adult werewolf would inevitably be exhausted physically and mentally after experiencing this series of events. So, he walked outside an abandoned-looking house nearby, sat down with his back against the wall, and took a deep breath while recovering his body's strength.
trauma.
His injuries from falling into the sewer had healed, but the pain that seemed to come from his bone marrow after being electrocuted made his body quite sluggish, and he could only wait for it to slowly disappear.
"The changes in Rentat have a good side, but also a very dangerous side. The lightning magic arrays are deployed everywhere without safety protection, and holes are dug in the middle of the avenue at will..." Nasdel is still unwilling to do so.
He admits that he has no common sense about "safe use of electricity" and thinks that the actions of the magicians are too risky and aggressive.
The night was deep and quiet. Nasder felt that his mood was gradually becoming calmer and his injuries were recovering quickly: "But these encounters are just an interlude. I have escaped from danger, and everything will be fine again."
The thought just emerged in his mind. The keen intuition due to his racial talent made him aware of the great danger, and he pounced without thinking.
However, his body had not yet fully recovered and the aftereffects of the electric shock were still affecting him, so his movements were slightly slower.
boom!
The abandoned house behind him exploded violently and completely collapsed.
"Are the people in Rentat crazy? Their own houses were blown up without warning?"
Nasdel never thought that the house behind him would suddenly explode. If it was aimed at him, he should have noticed it long ago!
Boom!
The shock wave hit Nasdel hard, and the walls, stone bricks, dust and other things were "submerged" in the surrounding area!
"Why, why..."
At the street entrance on the other side of the house, a group of people gathered around to watch the explosion.
"Director, the new alchemical explosives provided by the magicians are very effective." Watching the buildings collapse one after another, a brown-haired ordinary man said excitedly to the middle-aged man in front of him.
"It saves us the demolition work. I believe we will soon be able to widen the streets here and build a new, comfortable civilian area in Rentat." The supervisor who directed the demolition work nodded with satisfaction.
I went to Arlinge specifically to buy new alchemical explosives and asked a magician who specializes in elemental explosions to give instructions on where to place them.
The ordinary person next to him saw that the supervisor was in a good mood, so he asked out of curiosity: "Supervisor, why do we have to come to demolish it in the middle of the night? Aren't we afraid of disturbing the sleep of nearby citizens?"
"Then block the passage of this road during the day? This is a street that leads directly to the city gate. I don't know how many goods enter the market area from here! Are the rich people more important, or are ordinary citizens more important? Hurry up and get those lazy guys moving.
Clear the streets before dawn!" the supervisor shouted loudly.
A large group of workers started working. The ordinary person looked around with a little worry: "Supervisor, when the explosion just happened, I didn't check whether there was anyone inside..."
"How could there be someone? All sides are blocked and warning signs are made with magic crystal lamps. Who would break in without eyes? And our people are watching at all intersections, unless he can fly or drill into the ground!
"The supervisor said angrily.
In the early morning, Ali left his rented house and walked through a busy street towards the aristocratic district.
"The demolition explosion last night was really scary..." he sighed as he walked. Announcements were posted in advance for the demolition work and various notices were made, so he, who is literate, knew exactly what the explosion was about last night.
There is a monastery near the entrance of the noble district, but it has been transformed into a school. From time to time, the sound of reading can be heard, and exquisite and gorgeous carriages continue to drive from the distance of the noble district and drive directly into the school.
"Jane, Grade 2, Class 1, General Education, Mills School, Qining Street, Rentat Noble District..." Ali looked at the school from a distance, silently reciting the pen pal's communication method.
In the second year after the establishment of the general school, the nobles decided to imitate it and build a special aristocratic school. They could not let their children of noble blood study together with ordinary people. Whether they wanted to or not, they had to admit this commonality.
The learning method can stimulate your children's enthusiasm for learning more than the previous independent family education. Moreover, this kind of environment helps to establish personal connections from an early age, and they have a valuable social circle before they reach adulthood.
Ali watched the aristocratic carriages and alchemy cars drive into the school, and watched the aircraft of different shapes flying from the sky (some models, some ship types, some scaled-down airships, to name a few), deep in his eyes.
I deeply felt a gap and an invisible wall.
He sighed and turned around to leave as he had done many days before. He had mixed emotions in his heart, including inferiority complex, dissatisfaction, frustration, pain like being pricked by a needle, and a strong desire that came from it.
As he walked, he came near the block that was demolished last night, and suddenly heard a whimper.
"Huh?" Ali followed the sound and found a large dog lying in the grass. Its silver-gray fur was full of blood and dust.
"This dog really looks like a wolf." Ali sighed. He knew from books that there was indeed a kind of dog that looked very much like a wolf.
With good intentions, Ali walked over and found many scars on the dog, so he smiled and said, "Fortunately you met me."
During this time, he did temporary work in the hospital of the Magic Council and learned how to bandage, so he took the sleeping and moaning big dog home with difficulty and wrapped it up like a mummy.
After a while, he saw the big dog waking up, looking ahead with dull eyes, and shedding two lines of muddy tears.
"Crying? Are you crying?" This was the first time Ali had encountered such a thing, and he comforted him like a human being: "It will get better, haha, no need to thank me, no need to be moved, we will all get well in Rentat."
.”
Hearing the word Rentat, the big dog cried even harder.
