List of strange talismans

Chapter 115 You guys are really capable! 【4K [-] in [-]】

The sudden change caught Gu Xiuya by surprise.

His first reaction was to suspect that Coent and others were acting.

But looking at the humiliating appearance of the three representatives of the highest authority of the Bureau of Investigation in front of him, he felt that if the acting could reach this level, it would be a bit outrageous.

And... the forces belonging to the investigation bureau have completely surrounded him at this moment. From the obvious point of view, he is now trapped in the enemy's camp, and it is only a thought of the other party.

Acting at this time is purely superfluous and unreasonable.

... In other words, most of what the other party said was true.

There is a high probability that the three people in front of them are really Shuntian followers.

Thinking of this, Gu Xiuya suddenly felt an indescribable sense of confusion in his heart.

The turning point happened so suddenly, so suddenly that it was unbelievable!
He thought that he would be tortured to extract a confession, and even thought of many plans for it.

Who would have thought that the three interrogators I met in the end... turned out to be quite a few, and all of them were my own!
The most outrageous thing was that one of the three became the director, and the other two were deputy directors. From the perspective of the organizational structure, the entire Elton Investigation Bureau was basically emptied!

Ma En, Ma En, it's a shame that you don't engage in pyramid schemes!
How on earth did you brainwash these people?
It's been 300 years, people don't know how many generations have been dead, these people are still lurking in the enemy's rear, waiting for me, a saint, to appear...

If I had known that the Bureau of Investigation had been so thoroughly corrupted by the Shuntian Sect, why would I bother?

Can't I return the king?

At this moment, Gu Xiuya realized that choosing Ma En as the Archbishop of Shuntian Sect was the most correct thing during the previous journey.

The other party is really suitable for political work. If he and Ma En change places, he will never be able to make these people so willing to hide for him for hundreds of years.

——The undercover has become the boss, but he still does not forget his original intention and always remembers to care about the organization. What kind of spirit is this?
"So, the upright speech just outside the library..."

"I acted like a movie. Being behind enemy lines always needs some acting."

"Then, wanted..."

"Protection, protection wanted. Has been revoked."

"About Crime and Judgment..."

"We will announce to the public that the case is complicated and needs to be reviewed. When the limelight passes, you will have a brand new identity and be protected by the Bureau of Investigation."

The three of Coent obviously made sufficient preparations for this meeting, so that every time Gu Xiuya got an answer before he finished speaking.

"...How did you confirm that I am a saint?" Gu Xiuya asked.

"We left the [Stealer] imprint on Father Fabian. When his life activities remain normal, the resident fetish will simultaneously simulate all his behaviors."

"We know exactly what he did and said every day. This is not only to protect his safety, but also to prevent the organization from being exposed from him and leaving behind."

Coent lowered his eyebrows and pleasing to the eye, he took the initiative to explain: "So, the first time he successfully met with you, we knew that the original saints were back."

"Afterwards, we speculated based on the existing information, and compared it through the monitoring in the library, and confirmed that you are the person we were waiting for."

...Is there such a resident fetish?

Gu Xiuya's mind turned, and he said, "Since you know Fabian's identity and you have the power of the entire investigation bureau, why don't you help him?"

Gu Xiuya still felt a little bit hard to let go of what happened to Fabian, a pious disciple.

With outside help, how could he... live more easily?

"In fact, we've been helping him all along."

Bourne smiled bitterly and said, "If I hadn't been helping him cover up with the power of the Bureau of Investigation, he would have been exposed a long time ago... You know, although this priest is very devout to the sect, he is too cowardly and often suspicious , doing some unnecessary cover-up behaviors, which attracted the attention of many people."

"It is precisely because of this that we have never dared to reveal our identity to him. We can only protect him secretly."

"Fortunately, most of the work of identifying the enemy and the enemy taught by the Heavenly Father has always been carried out by us. Therefore, this matter is not particularly troublesome."

"……I see."

When Gu Xiuya heard this, he realized that he had misunderstood Bourne.

He had been surprised by how Fabian managed to lurk alone for so many years. After all, this believer's disposition is really not the kind of person who is good at undercover work.

In addition, Elton is an important cultural center of the White Star Country, so it is impossible for the Heavenly Father Sect to be negligent in the screening work here. It stands to reason that he should have been exposed long ago.

Now that he learned that the Bureau of Investigation had been secretly helping him, it made sense.

After all... who would have thought that the main member in charge of identifying the enemy and the enemy would be an undercover agent of the Shuntian Sect?
Thinking of this, Gu Xiuya couldn't help asking: "I'm curious about one thing, how did you persuade a red-clothed archbishop to voluntarily give in?"

Judging from Aiwen's performance, we can see that the Heavenly Father Sect has a strong desire to possess everything about Tianji Sword and Shuntian Sect. It stands to reason that they shouldn't give up at the last minute.

Functional departments often have the power to kill and kill subordinate units.It has always been only the ones at the top let the ones below bow their heads, why is it the other way around today?
Bourne seemed to have guessed that Gu Xiuya would ask this question a long time ago. He blinked and said proudly, "Because we have people here."

As he spoke, he pointed to the mansion newspaper posted on the wall next to him.

Gu Xiuya's eyes widened: "... Congress?"

Byrne nodded: "The general election is approaching, and Ferroche also needs supporters."

... Good guy!

You are really capable!
The undercover agents have all gone to Congress!

If I stay longer and come back, you must lie down beside the king?
Gu Xiuya was a little dazed.

That's all for Elton. After all, it is the birthplace of Shuntian Sect. It is not surprising that there are a few diehards.

But there are people of their own in the Congress, which is a bit too outrageous...

That is the highest center of power in the entire Baixing Kingdom!
Can this kind of place also penetrate?
Gu Xiuya didn't know whether that Shuntian believer in the Congress became a member of the council before joining the church, or the other way around...

But in either case, it is not easy to do.

Just thinking about it makes you realize how troublesome it is to make this happen.

"...Upper or lower?" He couldn't help asking.

The lower council is fine, there are always a few lucky civilians born in each round of general elections, but the upper council is known as the House of Nobles, basically blood-only, such people are impossible...

"All."

"...?"

Gu Xiuya slowly turned his head and looked at Bourne.

The Director of the Investigation Bureau returned his sincere smile, with a smile in his eyes, as if he was waiting for his compliment.

Gu Xiuya was silent for a long time, and finally couldn't help but ask: "...Director Bourne... How many people are there in Shuntian Sect now?"

"I do not know."

Bourne shook his head and said: "In order to prevent members from being uprooted, we never communicate publicly. We only communicate secretly when necessary. We have not held any sectarian activities in these years."

"Every Suncheon believer only knows his upline and downline. And it's limited to the code name."

"Just like if Coent hadn't been anonymously reported by others because he had concealed information related to the Suncheon Church many times recently, which attracted my attention. I would never have thought that my offline is actually under my nose."

"Don't say you didn't expect it, and I didn't expect it either. Help me contact the Heavenly Father Church and help me become the deputy director. [43] is my immediate boss."

Coent looked dumbfounded.

He said to Gu Xiuya: "In order to protect you this time, we had to coordinate various forces, so we exposed the identities of many people, but also met many like-minded brothers and sisters. Got it."

Gu Xiuya was stunned when he heard that, this level of concealment was almost comparable to the underground X in his previous life.

No wonder, no wonder the Bureau of Investigation wanted me for a while, quickly agreed to the deal for a while, and said they wanted to try my crimes for a while.

Gu Xiuya finally understood the reason for the various conflicting orders of the Bureau of Investigation under repeated accidents—a group of people who don't know who is a wolf, each of them keeps their heads down and works hard according to their own ideas, can there be no conflicts!

"Your Excellency Saint, I have some news about your question."

At this time, Aaron, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said.

The first deputy director of the Investigation Bureau, who looks like a German, was transferred from Lund Province to Elton a few months ago.Information channels should be more informed.

Similar to Coent's experience, he also found out that he was surrounded by his own people when he was rushing about Gu Xiuya's affairs.

"Although I don't know the exact number of people in the sect, I once received help from a sect brother in Nanston City, and his identity code is a very large number."

When Aaron said this, he compared eight fingers.

Gu Xiuya raised his eyebrows slightly: "Eighty?"

"Do not."

Aaron shook his head: "It's number 800."

... Fuck.

Thinking of how he raced against time after he came back, and how he attached great importance to the investigation bureau as his biggest enemy... Gu Xiuya couldn't help feeling like he was playing a police game and suddenly found that everyone was a thief.

It's really outrageous.

One line is 800 people, if there are two or three lines...

No wonder Tai Hao's power is so strong!

So many believers provide it with the power of faith to help it rise into the sky...can it not be strong?
Gu Xiuya was quite emotional, the development of Shuntian Sect was beyond his expectation and brought him too much surprise.

but.

He didn't lose his vigilance.

There is a saying that everything that happens accidentally has a reason for it to happen.

Gu Xiuya's eyes turned to Bourne and the others, and then he thought of the believers in the Congress.

What is it that makes these powerful people have such unreasonable loyalty to the Shuntian Sect?
What makes so many people willing to take the huge risk of identity exposure?

Through the descriptions of Burne and others, Gu Xiuya discovered that the current Shuntian Church is very similar to the circles of alumni associations and hometown associations in the previous life.People in the circle create a foundation of trust due to their common identities, exchange resources with each other, and form cliques for personal gain.

But the same thing can be done with a brand new organization. Without the identity of Shuntian Sect members, these people can live more safely.

That being the case, why are they obsessed with adhering to the title of Shuntian Sect?
Just because of faith?

"There's something I don't quite understand."

Gu Xiuya finally decided to ask the question directly.

"Even the most devout believers will be shaken after the power is added. With your current power and status, as long as you don't say it yourself, no one will think that you have something to do with the Shuntian Sect."

"You can obviously hide everything under time, live freely with a new identity, and enjoy hard-won power. But you didn't do this, and you chose the most difficult path."

"What is it that makes you willing to take the risk of losing your reputation and everything to continue following me?"

"I'm not doubting your piety, it's just... there's always a reason for everything, isn't there?"

He looked at the three people in front of him, and said word by word: "Tell me, why?"

Coent heard the words, hesitated for a while, and said, "Actually."

"cough."

At this moment, Byrne coughed suddenly and interrupted Coent.

Facing Gu Xiuya's piercing eyes, he smiled and said calmly, "Your Excellency, the secret time is coming soon."

As his words fell, the surrounding space began to float, the grotesque colors gradually disappeared, and the distorted objects began to transform into regular forms.This means that the power of the Realm is dissipating.

"Too many things happened today, I think you should be very tired too."

Bourne said: "I will arrange for someone to take you to a safe place to rest. After finishing the matter, the trouble will completely subside. We will come to see you again."

"At that time, I will answer your question."

Bureau of Investigation, [-]th floor underground.

Gu Xiuya got off the elevator, surrounded by three 'escorts' including Shang Siyue.

Different from the upright architectural style on the ground, the layout of the underground space is quite compact.

The cement-filled space is less than four meters high, and looks like a tunnel in layout, with irritating incandescent lights on the oppressive dome, and guards with guns standing at the elevator entrance.

Passing through the all-steel fire doors, there are rooms that are placed against the wall, and there are guards standing outside each room.

Figures exuding fluctuations in consciousness continued to patrol along the corridor, disappearing into the darkness at the end.

Gu Xiuya noticed that all the rooms are equipped with steel doors with electric grids, and the inscriptions are painted on them, and the faint light is faintly visible.

Judging from the rubber insulating mat laid outside the door, the power grid should be always on.

Shang Siyue led Gu Xiuya to the first room at the entrance, and showed the warrant issued by Xia Coent to the guard standing beside him.

After confirming the authenticity, the guard saluted Shang Siyue: "Please wait a moment."

Everyone waited for a while.

Soon, patrolling guards emerge through the darkness.

The guard on guard stepped forward and negotiated with him for a while. Immediately afterwards, the two each took out a card-sized object and stuck them together on the wall by the door.

With a flash of light, the power grid went out, and the iron door opened automatically.

"In the next few days, you will live here temporarily."

Shang Siyue said: "The three bureau chiefs are adjudicating your crime, and when the result comes out, I will come to pick you up to receive the punishment."

Gu Xiuya nodded, indicating that he understood.

　Thank you 'Pleasant Goat Big Wolf' for the reward of 500 coins!
　　The cumulative reward is 1600, and it will be added to 5000 (it’s okay if it’s less than 5000, and it’s okay to round up! Although I can only get 20 yuan for [-] coins, I think it’s pretty good! Thank you for your support!)
