From Hokage to Visionary

Chu Zihang was walking in the rain holding a black umbrella. He was not walking too fast and had a cold expression on his face as he walked on the bluestone path.

Before stepping into the door of the executive department, he suddenly froze for half a second.

"Hello, Chu Zihang."

Across from him, a young man dressed like a doctor in a white coat, with curly blond hair and a gentle smile on his lips, extended his hand to him: "I've heard a long time ago that there is a genius with S-class blood in the Executive Department, but unfortunately I never had the chance. I didn't expect to meet him here today."

"You are."

Chu Zihang had a blank expression on his face. This was his habitual indifference, not intentional alienation or harshness.

"Haha, I almost forgot to introduce myself."

The young man smiled and handed over a gold-plated business card: "My name is Adam, I work as a psychologist at Kassel College. Nice to meet you, Chu Zihang."

"Psychology. Alchemy Society?" Chu Zihang took the business card with some doubt in his eyes.

He knew that there were the Student Union and the Lionheart Society in Kassel College, and there were also many people who were just there for fun, but this "Psychological Alchemy Society" was the only thing that left him confused.

"Actually, it's a gathering for healing psychological trauma."

Adam had a gentle expression and spoke in an unhurried tone, as if he had some kind of inexplicable power that could calm the restless heart.

Looking at the gold-stamped business card, Chu Zihang had a different idea for some reason. He put the business card in his arms and nodded politely: "Okay, I'll go take a look when I'm free in the future."

Then, he thought for a moment, looked at Adam and asked, "What are you doing in the Executive Department?"

"What else can I do? I was forced to do hard labor."

Adam shrugged his shoulders, spread his hands, pretended to be helpless, and chuckled, "I was a special guest for this mission. It seems that I was needed as an analyst, so I was called along."

"Oh."

After Chu Zihang's brief response, he fell silent.

Fortunately, Raymond from the Executive Department came over and saw the two of them staying outside, so he asked them to go in together.

In the operations meeting room of the executive department, the executive department specialists who had arrived earlier gathered around the round table, looking at the projection screen, and did not look back when they came in.

As soon as they walked in, Chu Zihang and Adam's attention was attracted by the bloody and cruel scene on the projection screen.

Judging from the surrounding layout, it was a hospital ward. The pure white room was splashed with a lot of blood and looked full of evil. The corpse on the bed was a pregnant woman, but her abdomen was cut open, and the unborn baby inside had been cruelly dismembered, exposing the bloody muscles and organs.

The corpse's eyes were wide open, staring blankly at the ceiling, as if containing endless pain and resentment.

"The baby digging case is the mission this time."

The commissioner in front of the projection screen had a sullen and solemn expression on his face. He said in a deep voice, "It is very likely that a high-risk hybrid did it, but this guy is very cunning and rarely leaves any traces. So we need a psychologist to analyze his thoughts as much as possible and find this guy's trace."

"Blood class?"

Chu Zihang asked.

"The initial estimate was B, but..."

The commissioner paused, then showed a bitter look on his face, and said, "Since the previous commissioner in charge of the investigation died, it has been adjusted to 'A' level, so this mission is very dangerous."

"I understand."

Chu Zihang's expression didn't seem to change from beginning to end.

It was as if, whether it was B-level or A-level, it made no difference to him.

"Then I'll ask you to protect me, Chu Zihang."

Adam chuckled and said gently: "After all, my bloodline is only B-level, and the Word Spirit is not good at fighting."

"it is good."

Chu Zihang's answer was as concise and powerful as ever.

Chapter 271 Adam Anglewied

In the operations meeting room, the specialist on the stage looked at Raymond and nodded to indicate the handover.

Raymond walked up to the podium, tapped the remote control, and continued to play the PPT on the projector. He said, "The victims are generally pregnant women. From this, we can judge that the murderer's main target of attack is this special group of people. And the method is quite cruel. He cut out the babies and tortured them. What do you think?"

As the images rotated, other victims appeared in almost the same scenes, all in hospital wards, and the victims were basically several months pregnant. The methods of killing were similar: while the victims were still alive, the newly formed babies were cut out of their abdomens and tortured to death in an extremely cruel manner, and then the victims were killed.

The specialists of the executive department of Kassel College are supposed to possess efficient, calm and professional qualities, but this time it is different.

The murderer was nothing like the madmen or serial killers they had encountered before. Instead, he was a pure and cunning pervert who enjoyed torturing and killing pregnant women and babies.

"hiss--"

"vomit--"

In the war meeting room, everyone's reactions varied.

Some people can tolerate it better and just frown and look angry, while some people find it hard to accept and react like retching.

Fortunately, the students who could enter this room were either specialists from the executive department or elites of A-level bloodline. The commotion only lasted for a few seconds, and soon everyone adjusted their mindsets and started over again.

Among the people present, only two people's expressions seemed to have not changed from beginning to end.

Raymond's sight fell on the two people who were sitting at the door and had just come in. One of them was Chu Zihang, an elite who was well-known in the academy, the only one who took the initiative to find Kassel Academy, and was called an "incredible miracle" by the secret party. He had carried out several missions in his freshman year and his bloodline was assessed as a super A-level elite.

As for the other Adam, there seemed to be nothing special about him.

Bloodline assessment 'B' grade, Word Spirit: Heart Spirit Platform, Serial Number 36, Bloodline Origin Unknown, Danger Level: Low.

The ability is to stare at the hypnotized subject for a long time through the eyes, or to perceive the malice of others, etc. Tests have shown that it takes a very long time to hypnotize the subject, and the depth of hypnosis is very shallow.

To sum up, it seems that the only thing worth noting is that he has done in-depth research in psychology, and that's all.

For a mission like this, such a mediocre student should not have been allowed to join in, but the principal personally asked for it, which led to the current situation.

As a specialist in the executive department, Raymond really couldn't understand why the principal wanted to let a student with only a B-grade bloodline to participate in this dangerous mission, but he couldn't refuse.

After thinking about it, Raymond wanted to test it out, so he said, "Adam, since you have a deep understanding of psychology, why don't you analyze the general situation of this murderer."

Adam, who was named, still had a gentle smile on his face. "Judging from the fact that the murderer specifically targeted pregnant women, it is very likely that he had experienced some negative life events in his childhood."

"go on."

Raymond did not comment and motioned for him to continue.

"Combined with the same identity of several victims, we can assume that the murderer may have had a great resentment towards the identity of 'mother' when he was a child." Adam said, "From his revengeful killings, I guess that the murderer was abused by his relatives when he was very young because of his different bloodline, or he was abandoned and longed for maternal love. The long-term psychological repression eventually led to his mental decline into the abyss, and he used another method to get what he lost in his childhood."

"Not bad, any more?"

Raymond raised his eyebrows, suddenly interested, and said, "Can we go a step further and do psychological mapping on the murderer? We have very little information at the moment, and the murderer is very cunning. He left no useful information at many crime scenes."

"Sorry, this is all I can analyze for now."

Adam's eyes showed a hint of apology as he whispered, "If I want to do more psychological mapping, I need to go to the crime scene. Maybe I can get more information."

"understood."

Raymond nodded, not surprised. He turned to look at everyone present and said, "The murderer's bloodline is suspected to be 'A' grade, so this mission is very dangerous, and the murderer is extremely cunning, so we decided to use the 'bait' method to lure out the murderer. The other specialists will wait in the dark, ready to attack at any time."

"You, Adam, will be responsible for investigating the scene and trying to find as many clues as possible about the murderer, including but not limited to: his words, personality, height, weight, etc."

"You, Chu Zihang, will be responsible for protecting Adam and pretending to be a doctor to adapt to the situation."

"Finally, the task of bait."

Raymond looked around, and finally his eyes fell on a slender girl with fair and transparent skin: "Susie, the task of bait is given to you. You are the only one who meets the requirements."

"No problem, leave it to me~"

Susie pursed her lips lightly, her eyes curved into crescents, and she looked at Chu Zihang at the door mischievously, and said with a smile: "My safety is in your hands~"

"it is good."

Chu Zihang nodded slightly, as if he was already used to it.

"This mission is tentatively classified as 'A' level."

Raymond's eyes were filled with a hint of pressure as he swept over everyone present. He said in a deep voice, "I know that some of you are executive officers and some are elites, but please be cautious. You don't have a second chance in life. Even a lion needs to use all its strength to fight a rabbit. Don't underestimate any enemy just because of your experience or bloodline. Do you understand?"

He would repeat these words tirelessly before every mission.

Because every year, there are not a few students who lose their lives due to carelessness. Some of them are even hailed as geniuses, but in the end they fall at the hands of a "pawn".

Raymond didn't want to see tragedies like this again.

"Yes!"

Everyone responded one after another.

"For this mission, the academy will provide Frigga bullets and alchemical weapons."

Raymond made a final summary and said, "If there are no questions, go back and pack your equipment, gather at the school gate at 10 o'clock, and head to Brooklyn."

After the meeting, Chu Zihang chatted with Susie for a few words. When he saw Adam coming over after collecting the records, the girl smiled gently, like a blooming daisy. She casually lifted her long hair that hung by her ears, revealing her crystal earlobes, and said with a polite smile, "Hello, Adam, my name is Susie."

"Hello."

Adam smiled back in a very gentlemanly manner.

"Is this your first time participating in a mission?"

Susie was very gentle, like the older sister next door, with soft eyes: "Don't be afraid, I will protect you."

"Thank you."

Adam

After leaving the operations meeting room, Raymond went straight to the principal's office.

The man sitting behind the mahogany table was wearing a neat black suit with a bright red rose on his chest. His facial lines were strong and his white hair was neatly combed. Time had left deep marks on his face. It was hard to imagine that this old man was already 130 years old.

If it weren't for the glimmer that occasionally appeared in the depths of his silver-gray eyes, he might have looked more like a dissolute old man.

But Raymond knew very well how terrifying power was contained in the body of this seemingly dandy old man in front of him, and the folding knife in his hand was the most deadly dragon-slaying weapon in the world.

Hilbert Jean Angers, founder of the Academy of Kassel and the greatest dragon slayer of all time.

Raymond took a deep breath, looking a little stiff, and said, "Principal, as you requested, Adam has joined this mission."

Ange was peeling an apple and said calmly, "Okay, I understand."

Raymond's face twitched. If he was not mistaken, the knife the principal used to peel the apple seemed to be that folding knife?

"Is there anything else?"

Ange stopped what he was doing and looked up at him.

"That's all," Raymond said, then hesitated for a moment. Finally, he couldn't help but ask, "Principal, Adam's bloodline is only B-level, and his words are not good at frontal combat. I really don't know why you want him to join this mission?"

"Want to know?"

Ange tilted his head and looked at him with a smile.

"think."

Raymond nodded subconsciously.

"Don't tell you."

Ange laughed triumphantly like an old child.

The corner of Raymond's mouth twitched. What else could his own principal do? He couldn't just beat him up, right?

Besides, he couldn't beat him!

The executive officer left in disgrace. Angers then slowly put away his smile, took out a document from the drawer, and placed it on the table. He stared at the face with a gentle smile, and his silver-grey eyes sank slightly, as if implying some unknown emotion: "Adam Angerwid"

Chapter 272: Unknown Words, the Next Artwork

Brooklyn, New York, USA, afternoon time, 14:30.

According to the "bait" plan formulated by the Executive Department, the Executive Department quickly deployed after the plane arrived.

First, Adam went to the crime scene and examined the victim's body in the police station. Based on various signs, he conducted psychological mapping on the criminal and tried to find as many clues as possible.

On the other hand, the remaining executive department specialists ambushed in advance around the hospital where the murderer might appear, trying to find the murderer in advance. Both plans were carried out simultaneously to make preparations for both situations.

"The victims are generally around 25 to 30 years old, with blond hair and youthful features."
