Jack Manor.
Teams of investigators in uniform, under Roderick's command, rushed in. Holding flintlock rifles, they acted without speaking to each other but using gestures.
"Sir, do we really have to go to this extent?"
Mona turned her head and frowned slightly.
Roderick looked at his investigators who were searching the manor in an orderly manner and said calmly:
"Are you sympathizing? Why do you feel this way? You weren't so weak when you attacked other targets."
"I have investigated carefully. This extraordinary person named 'Jack' has not committed any serious crimes... Although he once destroyed a small town branch of the Red Apple Church, that is not within our jurisdiction."
Mona said.
"After I graduated from the Royal Academy, I was transferred directly to the Amber City Internment Camp. I have always believed that evidence is supreme. Whether it is the 'Cui Ti Zoo Incident' or the 'Eradication Operation', there is no direct evidence to prove that this person violated the 'Sun Code' and the 'Internment Regulations'.
Besides, I don’t really agree with the idea of executing all targets on the spot.”
Roderick sneered.
A phantom flashed across his hand, and with a snap, he grabbed the revolver in the holster under Mona's ribs.
Sizzle...
The revolver's magazine turned, and Mona was startled in vain.
When she came to her senses, the muzzle of a revolver was pointed at her forehead.
"I have a gun now. If I want to kill you, I just need to pull the trigger..."
Roderick's cold voice came.
"But are you going to wait until I really kill you before you come and catch me?"
Peng!!
A gunshot!
Mona looked at her superior expressionlessly, and the other party took a revolver and shot her in the side of the face. Her ears were buzzing and a trace of warmth flowed down her cheeks.
Roderick chuckled, turned his revolver and pointed the butt at Mona.
"Your courage is commendable... But you have to know that asylum requires not only courage, but also determination, the determination to suppress all factors that endanger the instability of the empire."
Mona ignored the blood flowing from her ear and took the gun and put it back into the holster.
"Commissioner Roderick, even though you are my superior, you have no right to use my service gun without permission... When we return to the shelter, I will report this incident according to the rules."
"what ever."
Roderick was unmoved by her words.
Soon, an investigator came out of the manor and stood in front of Roderick.
"Sir, no one was found. Except for some tools and machinery in the warehouse, everything else has been moved away... It can be inferred that the murderer has fled in advance."
"Clear out the stuff inside and take away anything valuable. These are all stolen goods."
Roderick ordered.
The investigator in front of him nodded, touched his chest in salute, and turned back.
Roderick glanced at the building across the street without saying a word and thought to himself what a pity.
There is also a group of investigators hiding there, carrying fine weapons made by the Extraordinary Workshop. As long as Jack shows up, they can capture him.
Since we didn't catch him on the spot, let's wait until next time...
The shelter has issued a wanted warrant, and as long as this guy is still in Amber City, it will be enough to make him unable to move.
After the people from the shelter carried out the large and small items and placed them on the carriage, Roderick gathered his team and left.
The large group was so aggressive that it scared away a goldfinch resting on a branch.
The street corner in the distance.
Polaris and Su Keying were observing secretly, and three players from the Centaur guild were standing behind them.
"What should we do? Our forces seem to be in big trouble..."
Su Keying said.
Polaris hesitated for a moment.
"Jack must have done something big again, otherwise it would not have caused such a big reaction from the shelter..."
The three centaurs looked at each other.
They had just found the North Star and it took a huge amount of effort and effort to convince the other party to accept them and be willing to "take" them out for fun.
As a result, right after I joined this force, my hometown was raided. What kind of thing is this? !
"Zhao! What the hell, I wasted so much energy and didn't even take on a single mission! There are only a few days left in the internal beta test, I can't just enter with a blank account and leave with a blank account, right?!"
The dog-head gold complained.
His good friend Wangli Wuji also felt depressed and didn't know how to explain to the president if this continued.
"Don't be impatient, this actually proves one thing."
Polaris turned around and said.
Others cast doubtful glances at him.
"The faction we belong to now actually has no core members. It all relies on that 'Mr. Jack' for support. But he was able to make such a big fuss on his own, which shows that he is indeed not simple..."
Polaris analyzed.
He recalled the terrifying panel he saw when he was testing Jack. Judging from the limited information, his true strength might have reached the ceiling at this stage, or even higher.
Coupled with the strange objects and extraordinary knowledge that I caught a glimpse of from the other party, he is definitely a big shot without a doubt.
"We should be thankful, this is what a heavyweight NPC should look like, except... it doesn't look like a lawful good character, but more like a chaotic neutral villain.
Don't forget, he single-handedly destroyed a church in Emerald Town!"
Polaris said, and the centaur was the first to nod in approval.
As an experienced cadre of a large guild, he naturally saw this.
"But the question is, what should we do now? Where should we find him... There can't be a place to take quests, right?"
He asked in a deep voice.
"In fact, before Jack left, he dismissed the servants of the manor, and the coachman conveyed a message to me... He would come to find us, so we don't have to worry."
"No hurry... He's an NPC, of course he's not in a hurry, but we are! We can't just sit there and wait, right? Besides, he's wanted by the whole city in the shelter, how can he find us?"
Goutoujin said impatiently.
Polaris ignored him and turned away.
"Hey! Where are you going?"
"Go back and log off to eat..."
Polaris turned his head, looking tired.
"I've been leveling up in the outer city these past few days, fighting gangs every day. Do you know how tiring it is?"
Everyone was speechless.
"Wait a minute, I'm also going to go offline to edit the video."
Su Keying followed.
She and Polaris live together temporarily for convenience.
Seeing this, the three centaurs left without any temper.
As the group was walking down the street, the leading Polaris was suddenly bumped into by a little newsboy.
"Ah! Sorry sir!"
The newsboy's newspapers were scattered all over the floor. Polaris looked down at him, sighed, and squatted down to help clean them up.
Suddenly, a paper airplane floated slowly in the air and was hit by a flying goldfinch, causing it to fall crookedly.
It hit Polaris right in the head.
"hiss!"
He touched the back of his head which was a little sore, picked up the paper airplane at his feet, and then let out a light exclamation.
"What's wrong, Northstar?"
Others came over.
Polaris unfolded the paper airplane with a surprised look on his face and showed it to them.
"It's his message!"
Written on the crumpled paper:
"—Tomorrow, you will go to the Garden Hotel and wait. I need you to help me do something important."
The signature is the letter "J".
But they all knew that this was Mr. Jack.
Everyone showed surprised expressions, what kind of communication method is this? !
At the same time, an idea came to their minds at the same time -
Big mission is coming!
