Because if a disciplinary officer suspects you of possessing dangerous knowledge, then they have the right to intervene.
Seno exiled himself to the desert, partly because he knew that the Sages and Great Sages of the Church were conducting dangerous experiments.
But he had no evidence, only speculation, and had no way to convict the sage and the great sage.
Furthermore, since sages and great sages held high positions, even if Seno wanted to use force, he simply couldn't defeat them. Therefore, he could only go to the desert to begin investigating the evidence.
"How come it feels like you know more about Sumeru than I do?" Dixia scratched her head, feeling somewhat puzzled.
As a native of Sumeru, the other party actually knew more about the inner workings of Sumeru than he did.
"I know a little bit about it." Hisaki Shinobu was quite modest, because there was a senior disciplinary officer in the group, so she had a deeper understanding of the disciplinary officer.
"What should we do with Su Hao now?"
Coral Palace Heart Sea looked at Su Hao. It seemed that the Fools had already discovered their presence, and the Disciplinary Officer was on his way. They should think of a way to deal with it.
Su Hao was silent for a moment, then looked at Naxida and said, "Can I ask you for a favor?"
Chapter 320 What does your search for Sasori of the Red Sand have to do with my Farusan Group?
Inside Sumeru City, a seven-person squad of disciplinary officers was heading towards the Grand Bazaar, accompanied by a female Fool.
They are the disciplinary officers responsible for investigating Sasori of the Red Sand.
However, their expressions were not particularly pleasant, because although the Great Sage was the second most powerful being in Sumeru City, only after the Grass God.
However, the other party has no right to interfere with the disciplinary officer, because the disciplinary officer is responsible for supervising the Sumeru scholars' use of knowledge and maintaining discipline within the academy.
In theory, even if a sage commits a crime, the disciplinary officers can still arrest him.
The situation is different now, ever since the order requiring the use of a void terminal to enter Sumeru City was implemented.
The Fools would come over from time to time to "report" that someone possessed dangerous or forbidden knowledge. When asked how it was dangerous, she would say that she didn't know, she only knew about the matter.
At first, the disciplinary officer didn't think anything of it, but after investigating, he found that the other party had not committed any crime at all.
He refused to wear the Void Terminal when entering Sumeru City, and later they had a small argument about it.
That's why they were targeted by the Fools.
Don't ask the disciplinary officers how they know about these things, because they've dealt with no fewer than a dozen such cases in the past few days.
Do they really think the disciplinary officers are fools? After investigating more than a dozen groups, they already knew what the Fools were up to.
They also tried reporting to the sages and great sages, but without exception, their response was that it didn't matter, since they were dealing with desert people anyway.
Even if they are merchants from other countries, so what? A bunch of guys who only know how to make money, who knows if they will take risks for "knowledge".
This made the disciplinary officers feel particularly cold inside; they were willing to join the disciplinary officers because they wanted to maintain the integrity of the Order of the Church.
But now, the way these disciplinary officers are doing is no different from the "Thirty-Man Group".
It's not that the disciplinary officer looks down on the "group of thirty," but rather that both sides are fulfilling their respective duties.
The "Thirty-Person Group" is responsible for managing the security facilities of Sumeru City. They are also a gilded brigade recognized by the Order of the Church.
They took charge of all the big and small matters in Sumeru City, and their role was similar to that of the Thousand Rock Army in Liyue.
But the disciplinary officers are different. They have to investigate every day, including suspected dangerous experiments, acquisition of forbidden knowledge, and the sale of knowledge.
As a result, ever since the Grand Evangelist Seno disappeared, the disciplinary officers have been doing odd jobs and investigating innocent people every day.
They initially wanted to refuse, but the group of fools then produced the Great Sage's token, forcing the disciplinary officer to deal with these trivial matters with a grim expression.
This is utterly pathetic. If only the Grand Disciplinary Officer, Seno, were here.
This is the sentiment of the current discipline officers of Sumeru City. In their eyes, Seno is equivalent to a Great Sage, or even has a higher status than a Great Sage.
Because Seno does everything personally, the disciplinary officers can see it all, as for the Great Sage... well, heh.
Originally, the disciplinary officer still held the great sage in high regard, after all, the other party was, in any case, a great sage, the supreme sage of Mount Sumeru.
Having been at the mercy of the Fools for so long, even though the Disciplinarian respects the Great Sage, he now harbors only resentment and discontent.
Soon, the disciplinary officers and their entourage arrived at the Grand Bazaar.
Through the void, they already knew that Su Hao and the others were near the Grand Bazaar, but as for their exact location, the void wasn't that magical.
"Let's split up and start searching. If we find [Red Sand Sasori], let's capture them first."
The disciplinary officer in charge spoke in a rather unpleasant tone, but he was specifically targeting the female fools who were responsible for "supervising" them.
On the other hand, the disciplinary officer was also helpless against Sasori of the Red Sand, not knowing what went wrong with the other party's procedures, which led to him being targeted by the Fatui.
Arresting is definitely the first thing that discipline officials do when they are handling cases. They need to arrest people and bring them under control.
Because those scholars who study dangerous knowledge, if they are not arrested immediately, a few more minutes will be given.
The evidence may have been completely destroyed long ago.
Similarly, this method of arresting people has become a common practice for discipline officers.
Sometimes, this also leads to a situation where, when a disciplinary officer comes to arrest someone, if the person in question hasn't run away, their suspicion will be greatly reduced.
If the person involved runs away, then sorry, the disciplinary officer can basically declare the other party dead.
"Yes."
The other disciplinary officers nodded and began to disperse to prepare to find [Sasori of the Red Sand].
The disciplinary officer in charge glanced at the group of fools standing behind him; it seemed they were following him.
"Ugh."
The disciplinary officer sighed, looking somewhat helpless. He couldn't say anything more and could only hope that he wouldn't find [Sasori of the Red Sand].
Because if they find it, they'll probably be watched by the other party and they'll start enforcing the law.
To be honest, being supervised in law enforcement is a very unpleasant feeling.
Thus, the discipline officer began his search, focusing his attention on the vendors around the Grand Bazaar.
And it's said that there's a Miss Nilu here who's an amazing dancer; I wonder if I'll be able to meet her today.
Thinking this, the disciplinary officer walked into the Grand Bazaar and saw a group of people dressed in gilded attire standing in a secluded corner, seemingly waiting for something.
"?!"
Seeing this, the disciplinary officer's eyes widened; he hadn't expected his luck to be so good today!
But he'd rather not have that damn good luck.
"That's them."
As expected, the female fool spoke up. She looked at the group of people dressed in gilded guild attire in front of her and recalled the information.
It's confirmed that this group is indeed [Sasori of the Red Sand]. Just as the Void said, these guys are in the Grand Bazaar.
Judging from their appearance, they are acting as a group, which is a good thing, as it allows us to capture them all at once.
Hopefully, that Farusan won't get in the way, but I also need to be careful. If they really are Su Hao's group...
The female fools were starting to worry, even though theoretically, Su Hao and his group were very likely to be in this group.
Based on intelligence and analysis from various sources, it's clear that Su Hao and his group had just arrived in Xumi, so where would they get so many people to help them identify themselves?
The disciplinary officer was only brought in because of Farusan's special status.
But... what if?
The thought that they might actually see Su Hao made the female fools appear calm on the surface, but they had already begun to quietly retreat.
If things go wrong, she will immediately make a tactical retreat and take the intelligence back with her.
"Ugh."
The disciplinary officer sighed, glanced at the group of fools, and then strode towards Su Hao and his group.
"coming."
Su Hao remained remarkably calm as the disciplinary officer approached them.
Because Dina Zede had recently awakened, Nasita and Dixia took her to hide away.
The three women were watching from the sidelines, waiting for the good show to unfold.
Dina Zede was still quite nervous, even though she didn't know that the 'Catherine' next to her was Nasita.
Seeing the disciplinary officer approaching Su Hao and his group, she sensed something was amiss, knowing that the disciplinary officer was quite intimidating.
In the eyes of ordinary people, scholars of the Order of the Church are already very noble.
Disciplinary officials are essentially management scholars.
But... why did he come looking for Su Hao? Has his identity been exposed?
While Dina Zede was lost in thought, Nasida, radiating a verdant glow, seemed to be doing something.
Meanwhile, the disciplinary officer had already met with Su Hao and the others.
"Are you Sasori of the Red Sand?" The disciplinary officer approached Su Hao and the others with a helpless expression, asking them if they were Sasori of the Red Sand.
"No."
Su Hao shook his head, indicating that he was not [Sasori of the Red Sand].
"Oh, I'm sorry to bother you."
The disciplinary officer nodded to indicate that he understood, and then turned to leave.
"what?!"
The female fool was stunned. She wanted to exclaim, "Are you blind?! The other person's appearance... it's Sasori of the Red Sand!!!"
This prompted the woman fool to rush over, shouting, "Wait a minute!!!"
'Annoying!' the disciplinary officer cursed under his breath; he knew this would happen.
The female fools approached the disciplinary officer and Su Hao. She looked at Su Hao seriously and said, "When you entered Sumeru City, wasn't the name you submitted [Scorpion of the Crimson Sand]?"
"Why are you lying? Do you have something to hide?! Or... do you really have a secret you're hiding when you enter Sumeru City?"
The female fool spoke with great seriousness, as if she were the law enforcer of Sumeru City.
"No, it's just that we've abandoned the name 'Sasori of the Red Sand'," Su Hao replied seriously. "Based on our group's collective discussion, we've decided to cancel the name 'Sasori of the Red Sand'."
