old dream

Chapter 310 Bread and Cage

Even with this cover-up, sooner or later the Danaro authorities will discover the anomaly in Mrs. Tuwana's house.

Whether it's the "theater" that Emil calls, or the Ninth Branch that Colin is familiar with, they are by no means incompetent departments.Like a pack of hungry hounds, Danalo's secret detectives rummaged through the city for suspicious smells.

What's more, the Grand Duke will think of taking back those dark green crystals sooner or later.

If you blindly cover up passively, you can only delay the exposure time at most, which Colin knows very well.If you want to completely eliminate hidden dangers, you must wipe out the scene before everyone else.

Moreover, the erasure process must be natural and reasonable, and the person who does it must not have any connection with the investigation department.

Therefore, Colin immediately thought of Detective Frank.

But when he found Frank near the Ninth Precinct, he found that Frank was queuing in front of a bakery.

The door was closed, with a lock on the handle.It's four o'clock in the morning, and the wind is cold.But looking at the appearance of Frank and other queuers, it seems that they have been waiting here for a long time.

The temperature in the early spring morning was still very low, and the few remaining hairs on Frank's head swayed in the wind from time to time, making people feel even colder.He wrapped his jacket tightly and shook his right leg anxiously.As a result, someone suddenly patted Frank on the shoulder. He impatiently wanted to turn around and scold him, but when he saw the other person's face clearly, he was taken aback.

Because it turned out to be Colin behind him.

"I didn't expect that a police detective from the Ninth Bureau would come to such a place to line up to buy food." Colin said, looking at the long queue.

It's been a long time since he saw such a depressed scene, and it reminded him of something more than ten years ago.

"Whose reason do you think this is?" Frank sighed feebly and said:
"My ration has been reduced."

There are many factions inside the Ninth Bureau, and it is a place where the weak prey on the strong.Frank messed up the private confession of the big man and lost his right-hand man, so he was quickly pushed to the edge.

But even so, a secret police detective will not be reduced to the point where he has to line up for bread in the early morning.

"There are rumors that food is already dangerous." Frank went on:

"The current situation is turbulent, and the insect-human infectious disease is getting worse and worse. I heard that the conditions of those large farms are not very good."

"Because the station is nearby, I thought of buying some bread and flour by the way... It's getting harder and harder to buy, and everyone is robbing it, one price per day."

"But don't you have other channels?" Colin said, "I believe that compared with ordinary people, you can always find a way."

Like facing Prohibition.

"It's not so easy." Frank said with a wry smile, "Even if the people above have it, it has nothing to do with a small role like me..."

"Do you want to be big?"

Because of Colin's words, Frank was taken aback for a moment, thinking that he was testing himself:

"Don't bother to give me any benefits, after all..."

After all, even the coordinates are in your hands.

"That's right." Colin looked around and said:

"You don't have any room to resist, but I will not treat those who do things for me badly."

"Now I have a clue that involves the Grand Duke." He lowered his voice and said, "If it goes well, you can use it to make friends with many important people."

"It depends on whether you want to grasp it or not."

…………

After that, Colin told Frank about the situation of Tuwana's house and the follow-up arrangements.

So two days later, he will "accidentally" discover the messy scene before the Grand Duke's people, and under Colin's instructions, he will extract evidence according to the usual procedures of the Ninth Bureau.

But in this way, the scene was actually destroyed for the second time.

Then naturally, someone in the ninth game would discover the taboo that Mrs. Tu Wana violated behind the scenes, and even faintly see the shadow of the Grand Duke behind this incident.

Maybe the Grand Duke can put pressure on them, but the situation will become complicated at once.Except for the investigation department, everyone involved in this matter will be trapped in the fog of mutual suspicion, and miss the incomplete truth.

And Colin and Ellie will stay out of the matter as if they have never been there, but take away the crystal samples like ghosts.

In the investigation department's office, Ke Lin was carefully scraping off the powder from the dark green crystals, and put them into the tenth sample bottle.

The traffic officer who came regularly had been waiting here for a long time, and he was about to board the train to Baidu in five or ten minutes, but there was no look of impatience on the traffic officer's face.Even if he is not resident in Danaro, he knows the importance of this sample evidence.

Why did the Grand Duke collect these emotions?There must be extremely important information hidden behind this, which means that the work of the Intelligence Department in Danaro, and even the entire Principality, will enter another stage.Thinking of this, the traffic officer couldn't help being a little excited when he took the sample bottle from Ke Lin, and his tone and actions unconsciously showed respect:

"I will definitely report to Building No. [-] your hard work and dedication." He said after closing the suitcase, his language was still stiff, but his voice was visibly trembling:

"There will be good news soon, please be patient."

After another military salute, the traffic officer turned and left the small office.

Rui was in contact with the informant, Ellie was practicing swordsmanship in the training ground downstairs, and only Colin and Emil were left in the office.

"So... why did the Grand Duke go to great lengths to collect human emotions?" Colin leaned back on his chair, playing with the dark green crystal in his hand, and asked unconsciously.

"In one morning, you have already asked five or six times." Emil said.

"I'm just asking myself."

"With our current level of secrecy, all information related to the 'Path of the Inner God' is not open. So it makes no sense to make any inferences." Amir said:
"So instead of fantasizing, it's better to do the thing at hand with peace of mind."

Colin smiled, put away the last sample of the dark green crystal in his hand, and then remembered another thing:
"You didn't seem very surprised when you found out that Ellie broke through to Qingxing." He said:
"Is it normal for Qingxing at her age to be in Baidu?"

"It's not normal, maybe it hasn't happened in more than ten years."

"But because she is Ellie, no one will be surprised." Emil said in a low voice:

"If you knew what she went through as a baby and as a child, neither would you."

"Babies and children... what?"

"Have you ever heard of a 'Gaster Cage'?"

"If you live in the hinterland of the alliance, then I believe you must have heard of it, but you don't know about it in Nanlu."

Emil finished writing the last document and put on the cap of his pen with both hands:

"'Gast' is Ellie's father's name..."

"Maybe it's hard for you to imagine... Ellie was raised in a cage."

　Tomorrow and two days after moving, it is estimated that there will be no change.
