Chapter 83, First Field Mission

Chapter 83 First Field Mission

"Looks like everything went smoothly."

Felicia, who had transformed into a catgirl and was leaning against the back door frame, staring in the direction of the tool shed, breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Levi come out of the tool shed, and then lightly jumped in front of Levi.

"Here, have an apple. I just peeled it."

"Thanks."

Li Wei took the apple and took a bite, but he seemed lost in thought.

Felicia reached out and poked Li Wei's cheek with her finger, then leaned her head toward him, her soft black hair in catgirl form brushing against his cheek.

"Are you alright? Is it a side effect of the ritual?"

"No, I was just thinking about the characteristics of loopback technology."

As he spoke, Li Wei raised his right hand: "The entire circuit created this time is concentrated in my right arm."

"And it seems it can't be moved, but it can be demolished."

"Is there a problem?" Felicia asked.

"How should I put it?" Li Wei thought for a moment, "There's a feeling that because mysterious power gathers in my right arm, this arm will be severed at the root sooner or later."

Felicia sighed in annoyance, then patted Levi on the back of the head: "What kind of weird illusion is this?"

After venting her frustrations, Felicia transformed back into a cat, jumped onto Levi's shoulder, and said, "Alright, alright, perfect timing! Let's go eat!"

"I haven't eaten human food in so long!"

After finishing his meal and returning home, Li Wei looked down at Felicia, who was so full she was practically rolling on her stomach.

"I told you to eat less. Are you stuffed?"

"Hiccup~~~ Mind your own business! Is it wrong to eat more of this delicious food that we haven't had in a long time?"

Li Wei ignored the cat; he had experienced too much that day, and he subconsciously felt the urge to yawn.

-

No matter how energetic he is, he can't withstand this kind of life.

I participated in the ceremony in the early morning, and then went to work despite feeling unwell after waking up in the morning.

I spent my time reading and studying, as well as gathering familiars. After finishing my work, I immediately started working on the loop creation when I got home.

The only time I could call rest that day was less than three hours of sleep and an hour after eating.

At this moment, Li Wei felt so exhausted that all he wanted to do was go to bed and get a good night's sleep.

After waking up, then hastily and nervously eat a hearty breakfast.

But just as Li Wei was about to reach the bedroom door, the phone in the study rang.

Li Wei couldn't help but look up and rub his forehead, then forced himself to walk over and answer the phone despite his exhaustion.

"It's me. Mr. Li Wei. I'm sorry to bother you so late."

"Director Barris?" Levi asked, somewhat surprised.

After spending almost half a month together, he had come to know this mysterious top-level expert of the sixth energy level.

This is a simple, ordinary person.

At least it appears to be so.

I arrive at and leave work on time every day, never a minute late or early.

He would ignore anything that wasn't a serious mistake of principle.

And they don't appear very often.

They only step in to solve problems when something goes wrong.

He's the kind of leader I like best at work.

Generally speaking, he wouldn't call me at this time.

Unless something happens.

"Has something happened, curator?"

"Haha, don't be nervous, Mr. Li Wei. Nothing's happened. At least it's not really our problem."

Curator Barris's laughter came through the receiver: "That's how it is."

"You may need to go to Viscount Walter's Manor outside the city tomorrow."

"The Viscount had previously borrowed a banned book from the Grand Library through proper channels."

"It's a pity that the Viscount passed away this afternoon due to his advanced age."

"Therefore, although the borrowing period has not yet expired, we still have to collect the books because the borrower has passed away."

The book is titled "The Secret History of Hearts".

"The Inspection Bureau will send someone to accompany you tomorrow to avoid any unnecessary trouble."

"As for the library, don't worry about it until the fieldwork is over, I'll take your shift."

Li Wei nodded after listening: "I understand, Mr. Curator. What time do we depart tomorrow?"

"At nine o'clock in the morning, a carriage from the Inspection Bureau will come to your door to pick you up. I've already made arrangements."

"Also, a month is almost up, it's time to find a new place to stay, Mr. Li Wei."

"No problem, I understand, curator."

After hanging up the phone, Li Wei felt a little more awake.

Fieldwork?

I didn't expect to be on a field mission so soon.

Fortunately, the place isn't too far away.

There are indeed a few noble estates outside the city, in the Beldor region.

Although the city is dominated by the parliament, the territory of the autonomous dominion is still quite large.

Many wealthy nobles purchase properties here.

After all, apart from the urban areas which are polluted due to the dense factories, the scenery in other parts of the autonomous territory is quite nice.

Mountains, lakes, forests — although located on the border, this place does have many unique landscapes.

He didn't know where Walter Manor was.

Fortunately, someone from the supervisory bureau will accompany me.

There's no need to worry about getting lost.

Are you going on a long trip tomorrow?

Li Wei turned his head and saw that the little black cat had somehow gotten up and was now crawling on the stair steps.

Li Wei nodded: "Yes. Want to go together?"

"Great, let's go outside and enjoy the scenery."

Nothing happened that night, and the next morning Li Wei got up early and made himself a hearty breakfast.

Then, in ten minutes, his face flushed red, he hurriedly swallowed a whole plate of bacon, fried eggs, sausage, and bread.

Actually, if it weren't for convenience, he was planning to stir-fry some noodles for himself.

Felicia was also given a standard breakfast.

After the two finished eating, it was exactly 9 o'clock.

A black luxury carriage pulled up right on time in front of the house.

Then, a familiar voice came.

"Mr. Levi! It's time to go out!"

"Vera?" Felicia reacted faster than Levi this time: "Is she coming too?"

Li Wei turned to Felicia, who seemed somewhat resistant, and said, "The curator only said that someone from the Inspection Bureau would accompany me. He didn't say who it was at first."

"I suppose they were thinking of sending someone they knew to facilitate communication."

"Besides, I remember that Vera is currently in charge of organizing the Bureau of Investigation's files on banned books, so it's quite normal for her to be involved as well."

"Oh," Felicia responded, "Looks like I'll have to keep up the act of being a cat, and I can't speak human language anymore."

"I'm afraid of being recognized."

Li Wei remained noncommittal, then picked up the cat and walked out the door.

Today, however, he had a silver-black cane in his hand.

This is a mimicry created by the Shadow Wolf.

He let the Falcon Spirit possess him, and then took the Shadow Wolf.

When you're out and about, staying alive is the most important thing.

When Vera saw Levi outside the door, she asked curiously, "Are you bringing the cat with you?"

"After all, if I leave, there will be no one to feed it at home. Besides, this little guy is very clingy."

As Li Wei spoke, he picked up Felicia, who was clearly unhappy, and swayed her in front of Vera.

Vera didn't ask any further questions, but urged, "Oh, I see. Then let's get in the car quickly. We need to get there before Viscount Walter's lawyer reads the will."
