That evening, while Julia was still flying around over Locke City, Amelie stood with her feet on Maxie and her head against Viliana, squinting as she conceived movie scenes in her mind.

dong dong dong.

There was a sudden knock on the office door; such a polite knock couldn't possibly be Yulia.

So Marcy and Virianna quickly returned to their positions, straightened their disheveled clothes, and transformed back into elegant maids and aloof guards.

Half a minute later, the door was pushed open, and the assistant walked in.

"boss."

The assistant first gave a gentle bow in greeting before reporting:

"Two guests with rather special identities have suddenly arrived, and we cannot make a decision on their behalf. I'm afraid you will need to meet them in person."

Chapter 97 Moon Guards and Investigators

"Two guests with rather special identities..."

Emery tapped the table with her fingers, pondered for a moment, and then smiled:

"If I'm not mistaken, the guests should be from the Elf Embassy, ​​and perhaps the FBI as well?"

"The boss is indeed incredibly intelligent and resourceful."

The assistant first gave Emery a small compliment before nodding with a smile:

"It is indeed a Moon Guardian from the Elf Embassy and a Purple Star Investigator from the Federal Bureau of Investigation. I have arranged for them to wait in the VIP room."

"well done."

Emery didn't hold back her praise either:

"Leave the next two guests to me. Go and take care of your own business."

"Yes, boss."

The assistant nodded obediently, turned around, and swayed away in her body, which was dressed in a pencil skirt and sheer high heels.

"...She seems to be deliberately seducing you, Miss."

Marcy watched the assistant's retreating figure, and curled her lip in disdain:

"It seems she's no longer content with just being your assistant and wants a promotion."

"Everyone wants to climb higher, and this desire is hard to satisfy, which is normal."

Emery, on the other hand, shrugged indifferently:

"Anyway, she's been doing a pretty good job so far. If there's a chance, giving her a chance to try isn't a bad idea... Alright, let's not talk about her anymore. Since there's an elven Moon Guard among the guests this time, you two should keep a low profile for now. Although everyone knows that the Federation has elven slaves, it's still a bit too ostentatious to have you serve me in front of a Moon Guard."

"Yes, Miss."

"Yes, Master."

Marcy and Viriana nodded obediently and left through a hidden door in another direction of the office.

Emerald took out a small round mirror and checked herself to make sure that she hadn't done anything improper in terms of clothing, makeup, or demeanor before standing up and walking towards the VIP room.

Upon opening the door to the VIP room, Amelie immediately saw the two guests.

One of the guests had the long ears that elves are known for, was very beautiful with a great figure, and had skin as white as fresh milk.

She wore a green, fitted skirt armor with a golden crescent moon emblem, which was the standard attire of the Elven Moon Guards.

The Moon Guard is a very special unit within the Elven race. It has a small number of members and is directly responsible to the Royal Council. In terms of combat strength, it is an elite force on par with the Royal Guard.

However, the Royal Guard is mainly responsible for handling internal affairs of the Elven race and defending the homeland, while the Moon Guard is mostly responsible for foreign affairs related to humans, much like the difference between the FBI and CIA in the United States.

In terms of combat style, the Moon Guard also differs from the Royal Guard. The Royal Guard members are basically pure elven mages like Viliana, who can use thousands of spells and are theoretically capable of solving any problem.

The Moon Guard members don't know as much magic as traditional elven mages, but they are all proficient in melee combat. Each member is skilled in at least two types of cold weapons, somewhat like an agile magic swordsman in a game, or a magic assassin.

After all, they are an elite force responsible for external missions, so some special operations are unavoidable.

However, the Moon Guardian in front of Emerald did not have the aura of an elite agent. Instead, she seemed quite listless, as if she was just going through the motions.

The FBI's purple-star investigator, on the other hand, seemed very energetic. She couldn't even sit still and kept pacing around the room.

This female investigator is also very beautiful. She has black hair and black eyes, which is quite rare in the Federation. Her figure, wrapped in a tight leather outfit, is also curvaceous and eye-catching. Coupled with her identity as an investigator, it is hard not to think of a certain type of adult film on Earth.

But not all investigators are the same. This one is a Purple Star Investigator. If you underestimate her just because she's pretty, you'll easily suffer a great loss.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation in the Allen Federation of this world is actually quite similar to the Federal Bureau of Investigation on Earth, mainly responsible for major cases within the Allen Federation.

Unlike the Federal Bureau of Investigation on Earth, investigators in this world are divided into two levels: Red Star and Purple Star.

There are many Red Star Investigators, roughly the same number as FBI agents on Earth. Members include both ordinary people and mages. Their main job is to investigate cases and collect evidence. They do not have independent investigative powers and can only investigate cases assigned by the bureau.

Purple-star investigators are even more formidable; they are not only the weakest but also control-level mages, and they possess very important independent investigative powers.

The right to independent investigation, as the name suggests, means that any case that a Purple Star-level investigator finds suspicious can be investigated first and foremost, directly in the name of the FBI, even if there is no substantial evidence before the investigation and only intuition.

Therefore, even tycoons and capitalists like Emerald generally don't want to antagonize Purple Star Investigators. They can come up with various pretexts to investigate you every few days, and even if it doesn't cause any major substantial damage, it can still be incredibly annoying.

Greetings, gentlemen.

Emerald greeted the investigator and Moonguard directly and then sat down on the sofa opposite them, her legs in black stockings pressed tightly together, her posture very proper.

"May I ask your names, and what brings you to Blue Star Film and Television?"

"Just call me Shuying. Before I joined the Moon Guard, I was just a commoner elf... what you humans often call an elf village girl. I didn't have a surname."

Miss Moonguard yawned, glanced at Amelie twice, then looked away uninterestedly and continued to slump on her sofa in a decadent manner.

“Mengmeng Bell, FBI Purple Star Investigator, this is my identification.”

The female investigator diligently showed her identification and introduced herself, then seemed eager to get straight to the point:

"I understand that an illegal market in your Locke City, suspected of trading intelligent life forms, was attacked recently, which led to a terrorist attack by members of the Elven Royal Guard. I'm here mainly to find out more about it..."

"Oh dear! How can you be so inconsiderate? Who talks about work right after arriving?"

Before Investigator Mengmeng could finish speaking, she was loudly and angrily interrupted by Yuewei:

"We can talk about work at the dinner table. It's rare for me to leave the boring embassy for a mission, and I can't wait any longer. Let me relax first!"

After speaking, Miss Moonguard ignored Investigator Momo, whose face was flushed with anger, and looked at Emerald, who seemed to be listening attentively:

"I'm saying, is there something wrong with your company? How come almost all your employees are women? I haven't seen a single handsome young man along the way... You're not a woman, are you?"

Chapter 98 Whom Do You Look Down On?

"you're right."

Faced with Miss Moonguard's suspicions, Emerald readily nodded in admission:

"I really have no interest in men; I only like hot and beautiful young girls."

"Tsk, how boring."

Miss Yuewei clicked her tongue, then lay back down on the sofa with a lazy, nonchalant look on her face.

"I was thinking that a tycoon's daughter like you must have a lot of fun male lovers, and I was even thinking of asking you for a couple to play with... but it turns out you like women? Then forget it, I'm not interested in that kind of finger-to-finger interaction."

"If Miss Yuewei needs a man to serve her, it's actually quite simple."

Emerald was not at all surprised that the elves would behave this way, and smiled:

"Although I don't keep male concubines myself, I do know quite a few strong young men, and many of them would be happy to share pleasure with a beauty like you, Miss Yuewei... How about I contact some strong young men tonight to serve you? As for serious matters, we can talk about them at the dinner table later?"

"Alright, alright! Good for you, strong young man! Good for your food, then I'll do as you say!"

Miss Yuewei perked up again and quickly agreed.

On the other side, investigator Mengmeng was so angry she was practically fuming, but this time the investigation into Emerald was clearly led by Yuewei, so she couldn't say much.

Amelie quickly ordered the chefs to prepare a high-class feast, mainly consisting of various meats from the northern plains of the Federation, as well as a small amount of elven specialties.

Miss Yuewei clearly showed no interest in her family's specialties, only indulging in meat with gusto, her emerald skirt stained with oil—she truly didn't care about her image at all, despite being a great beauty.

Investigator Mengmeng was clearly in a bad mood and had little interest in eating meat. She only ate some fairy fruit and drank a few sips of red wine, patiently waiting for Miss Yuewei to finish her business first.

"I...I came here very simply...very simply."

After eating heartily until her belly was slightly bulging, Miss Moonguard wiped her mouth, leaned back in her chair with a satisfied look, and said to Emerald:

"Didn't some idiot from the royal guard carry out a terrorist attack here a few days ago? I was sent here to investigate the cause and effect of this incident, and then write a report... I just need to be able to hand in the report in a few days, you know what I mean?"

"Of course, don't worry, I'll arrange everything for you."

Emery understood immediately, of course.

Miss Moonguard meant that as long as she was treated well with good food and good men for the next few days, she didn't care about the contents of the report and could let Emery make up whatever she wanted.

Clearly, this Miss Moon Guard didn't care about the mission at all; she was just using the mission as an excuse to have fun and enjoy herself. Capitalists also love dealing with these kinds of government officials.

After eating a few more bites of meat, Miss Yuewei was clearly feeling a bit satiated and lustful, and she seemed somewhat restless sitting in her chair.

Emerald noticed this and thoughtfully called over four healthy and handsome young men to help Miss Moonguard to her guest room.

These four young men are actually members of the Baihe Gang. I heard that they can serve the beautiful fairy and even get a bonus. The Baihe Gang has more than 50 people who have signed up, so they should be able to serve Miss Yuewei to her satisfaction in the next few days.

And you, Miss Mengmeng?

Having settled the Elven Moon Guards, who clearly weren't there for serious business, Amelie then turned her gaze to the FBI Purple Star Investigator, who seemed to be there to get down to business:

"Are you also here to investigate that terrorist attack involving foreigners a few days ago?"

"No, I have absolutely no interest in those elf bitches."

Miss Mengmeng's face was already as cold as frost. She was clearly very dissatisfied with the deal between Amelie and Miss Moonguard, but there was nothing she could do, so she could only sulk.

“Didn’t I say before? I’m here to investigate the trafficking of intelligent life. Doesn’t your Locke City have an underground black market? I suspect there are illegal transactions there.”

...Isn't that obvious? How many transactions on the black market are legal?

Emerald thought to herself, speechless, but on her face she feigned hesitation, as if she had been thinking seriously, before asking with some doubt:

"Miss Mengmeng, didn't you say you weren't interested in elves? There is indeed a black market in our Locke City, and it's even the venue I provided, but it basically only sells elf slaves. Even the elves themselves turn a blind eye to this kind of thing. Do you really want to uphold justice for those elves who don't respect themselves?"

"I've already said, I'm not interested in the elven bitch's mess! And I don't care how many elven slaves you've bought and sold! If I really wanted to get involved, I would have come long ago, not waited until now!"

Miss Mengmeng reiterated her stance in a somewhat forceful tone, and then fell silent.

Seemingly feeling that Emery's directness showed some sincerity, Miss Mengmeng pondered for a moment and then provided some information:

"I'm actually an investigator in the Investigation Bureau who specializes in human child trafficking cases. Accompanying the people from the Elf Embassy this time was just a side mission. What I really want to investigate is a case that interests me—I have definite intelligence that there's a gang in your Locke City that specializes in trafficking human children, and the scale of the transactions isn't small. Are you aware of that?"

"...You suspect that my men are trafficking human infants?"

This time it was Emery's turn to show displeasure, and great displeasure:

"Who do you think you are? How much are human babies worth? Whether you sell them to perverts to raise them or kill them to sell their organs, can they make as much as the Melson family makes selling magical artifacts? Even Blue Star Films makes more money selling memberships, not to mention I also have Velen Copper Industry—do you think I would commit a crime for such a small amount of money that isn't even enough for pocket money? Who do you think you are?"

"I……"

Miss Mengmeng blushed, but after thinking about it carefully, she had to admit that Emery's self-justification was impeccable.

If it were another small city's ruler, they might actually have their eye on the business of trafficking human children and made money from it.

But Emery is the daughter of the Melson family, and she has far too many ways and means to make more money. She has no interest in the business of trafficking human children.

"am I right?"

Seeing that Miss Mengmeng seemed to agree with her statement, Amelie shrugged again:

"To be honest, the money I make from trafficking human children would only make me a laughingstock if I brought it home. Gangs are just a tool for us to maintain order; we wouldn't stoop to that kind of business."

"I understand."

Miss Mengmeng sighed and nodded, then thought for a moment before tentatively asking:

"Could it be that your gang did this behind your back, Miss Melson? I've seen this kind of thing quite often in my previous investigations."

Chapter 99 Willing to Cooperate

“The Baihe Gang wouldn’t do this kind of business. They have other stable incomes and their benefits are much better than other gangs. They wouldn’t even look at that dirty money.”

Amelie answered decisively.

After founding Lanxing Film and Television, she has been gradually whitewashing the Baihe Gang. Now the Baihe Gang is almost a legitimate company and is in a critical period of transformation. She would never make such a mistake.

After a slight pause, Amelie asked again:

"Miss Mengmeng, is your source of information reliable?"

"Absolutely reliable!"
