The villain daughter did all kinds of things

With a whooshing sound, a beautiful female investigator dressed in a tight leather outfit and holding a whip appeared before them.

Chapter 104 Emerald! A wicked trickle!

A locked room, a bodysuit, a whip, a female investigator, and a criminal.

With so many interesting elements gathered together, Amelie was quite interested. She sat in the shadows, her feet on Marcy's head and her head on Viliana's, sipping her red tea in a very comfortable position, ready to enjoy the show that Miss Mengmeng had prepared.

However, there was no real drama at all, and the interrogation ended quickly, leaving Emery, who had hoped to use this dramatic scene as a side dish to play with her two toys, extremely disappointed.

Those six criminals who trafficked human infants were really too insignificant. Miss Mengmeng didn't use any interrogation techniques at all. She just used the standard FBI script, and they tremblingly told her everything they knew.

Judging from their behavior during the interrogation, the six criminals were far less professional than Emery had anticipated. They were simply running a small business of trafficking human infants and making a quick buck, never expecting to attract the attention of a Purple Star Investigator.

This is also related to the fact that those human children who were trafficked were all magic rejecters.

According to the tearful confessions of those criminals during interrogation, they would never dare to abduct children of magical affinity beings in the city who have parents and registered identities. They also knew that any crime involving human infants was a serious offense in the Allen Federation.

However, they all subconsciously harbor a bit of racial prejudice, meaning they don't treat magic rejecters as equal human beings, referring to them as "savages" repeatedly, much like how most Earthlings talk about African natives.

They didn't think that trafficking magic-repelling cubs was a big crime, especially since those magic-repelling cubs were also shunned in the village.

The probability of two people with magical affinity having a child with magical affinity is definitely higher, but it's still impossible to avoid having a child with magical aversion, even if both parents are mages. The reverse is also true: children born to two people with magical aversion are most likely to be magical aversion themselves, but there's a small chance they might have a child with magical affinity, or even a child with mage talent.

Therefore, in the villages of magic rejecters, most families have their own children to raise, and the magic rejecter children sent from the city receive slightly less attention.

If the biological parents of the children of those who reject magic often come to visit, that's fine. In order to obtain the supplies that the biological parents bring when they visit, the people in the magic-rejecting villages will treat the children very well, almost as their own.

However, not every child born in the city who is a magic rejecter has good biological parents. Some couples are hard-hearted and even believe that having a magic rejecter child is bad luck. They usually send the child to a magic rejecter village outside the city and then abandon them.

These children often live in dire straits, residing on the margins of society. They frequently run away and remain missing for days before anyone notices. They are also the primary acquisition targets of the six merchants from the [Mark Merchant Guild].

Since the children's biological parents have completely abandoned them, the magic-repelling individuals who adopted them naturally won't care much. Now that someone is willing to buy them for 2 Rons each, those people are naturally willing to sell.

According to the six merchants, they had never intended to do this business; they were all legitimate merchants.

Starting a few years ago, a rumor gradually spread among merchants that someone was specifically buying up magic-repelling cubs. If merchants encountered such cubs who were unloved and neglected while on business, they might as well talk to their guardians and buy them, or even kidnap them, to make a lot of money.

Some merchants didn't take the rumor seriously, or perhaps they knew that trafficking human children was a serious crime in the Allen Federation and resisted the temptation.

However, the six merchants from the Mark Merchant Guild clearly couldn't resist. For the past few years, they had been running business among the eight magic rejecter villages near Locke City, and had bought and resold more than 70 magic rejecter cubs, until they were caught by Miss Mengmeng this time.

As for the murderer of Miss Mengmeng's informant, Jacques Shaw, it was not their accomplice, but a buyer who came to acquire the Magic Repeller cubs.

After Miss Mengmeng took down the cub trafficking gang in the state capital north of Locke City, the six merchants lost their outlets and were initially not planning to continue their business.

However, they had already bought four Magic Repeller cubs, and it felt like a huge loss to either return them or keep them themselves, so they spread the word that they wanted to sell them to other dealers at a lower price.

So some buyers took the initiative to contact them... According to their description, it was a strange person wrapped in a black robe, who spoke in a flat tone and gave people a somewhat scary feeling.

The black-robed monster killed Jacques Shaw because he was disguised as a lame beggar and was not far from the transaction site. The black-robed monster thought he might reveal the secret, so he raised his hand and shot a magical ray that blew Jacques Shaw's head off.

The man in black robes didn't explain why he suddenly attacked. After killing Jacques Shaw, he paid the money and left with the four human children. The merchants disposed of Jacques Shaw's body.

At the time, the merchants all thought Jacques Shaw was just an unlucky beggar, never expecting that he would actually be an FBI agent, which eventually attracted the attention of a Purple Star Investigator.

This is the entire account given by the six merchants of the Mark Merchant Guild. They all cooperated by signing their statements and leaving behind magical invoices, hoping for leniency.

Miss Mengmeng repeatedly questioned the six merchants about the details, and after confirming that they were not lying, she transcribed the notes herself and even made a copy for Amelie.

"Here you are the truth you wanted."

When Miss Mengmeng handed the copied transcript to Emerald, she said rather irritably:

"It turns out that your control over this city is still very solid. There is no unknown mysterious armed force. They are just a bunch of fools who have gone mad... That mysterious buyer is clearly not from your Locke City, so you don't need to worry about him anymore. I will continue to investigate."

"uh-huh."

Emerald said nothing about it, accepted the copied transcript, and then changed the subject:

"Now that you've found the truth you wanted and solved the case, there's no need to rush back to the Investigation Bureau, right? Miss Shuying will probably be gone for another day or two. Why don't you take this opportunity to relax in Locke City and let me show you some hospitality?"

"Is this...appropriate?"

Miss Mengmeng seemed quite interested, but she didn't agree immediately.

"What's inappropriate?"

Amelie smiled sweetly, reassuring Miss Mengmeng:

"Your official mission in Locke City was to accompany Miss Shuying to investigate the terrorist attack by elven extremists. The human child abduction case was just your own personal matter. Am I right? Shouldn't you be waiting for Miss Shuying to leave together?"

"Besides, you've worked so hard for so many days, finally catching a few criminals and rescuing four lucky children. Can't you enjoy yourself a little? Treat yourself well. People need to learn to balance work and rest to be more efficient."

"...Okay, you've convinced me."

Miss Mengmeng was indeed tired, so she readily agreed.

"Then I'll follow your arrangements for the next two days."

"no problem."

Amelie nodded with a smile.

So for the next two days, just like she had taken Julia to enjoy herself, Amelie also took Miss Mengmeng to enjoy the extravagance of the wealthy, and they went to all the top entertainment venues in Locke City.

But Miss Mengmeng didn't have the same feeling as Yulia, who was like a country bumpkin visiting a grand garden. She was quite familiar with some of the entertainment activities, which clearly showed that as a purple-star investigator of the FBI, she had been to such places many times before for various reasons.

Previously, Miss Mengmeng went to those places for work purposes, but now she is simply enjoying herself as a guest. It is obvious that she is very relaxed and comfortable when she spends money. These two days are like a vacation, the kind of vacation where the rich woman pays for everything.

Two days later, Miss Shuying finally completed her 500-kill streak plan, sacrificing the lives of 500 energetic young men to make them listless, and felt satisfied and refreshed.

After enjoying herself, Miss Shuying kept her promise. She not only completely accepted the investigation report given to her by Amelie as her own, but also left behind all the information about the magic [Physical Energy Absorption].

Emeryt hid a lot of key information in her investigation report, such as her experiments with the magic collector and magic transmitter, Julia's true strength, Viliana's war magic, and Viliana's final whereabouts.

According to the report, this was an incident in which elven extremists sneaked in to carry out a terrorist attack but were defeated and fled by the public. There's nothing to be surprised about... The only thing that's a little special is the identity of the attackers, but other extremists in the Elven Royal Guard have done similar things before, so there's nothing to be surprised about either.

With that, Ms. Yuewei Shuying and Ms. Investigator Mengmeng completed their investigation missions. Just as they had come together, they left together, except that Ms. Mengmeng was accompanied by 6 criminals and 4 human cubs.

"This should be returned to you, Emerald."

Before parting, Miss Mengmeng returned Emerald's specially made name card:

"Although it's very useful in Locke City, so useful that I'm almost reluctant to return it to you, using this kind of thing too much can lead to corruption, so let's return it to its rightful owner."

"Look at what you're saying! This is just a token I use to entertain distinguished guests, how come you're making it sound like a source of pollution? I'm a little hurt~~"

Amélie rolled her eyes at Miss Mengmeng, but still took the business card back—she had never really intended to give it out, and she would have brought it up even if Miss Mengmeng hadn't.

"correct."

After exchanging a few lighthearted jokes, Emeryt became serious and said:

"Mengmeng, you've watched quite a few of Yulia's short plays these past few days, haven't you? What do you think of this new type of performance?"

"It's pretty good, at least the content is quite good."

Miss Mengmeng didn't hold back her praise, and a smile appeared on her face:

"I never thought a capitalist like you could come up with something like this... Although you're doing this to make money, at least the content of these short dramas is all positive! If one day these short dramas become popular throughout the Federation, the social atmosphere will definitely improve."

"This is exactly what I hope for. I hope that one day there will be love and peace everywhere."

Emery quickly adopted a very sanctimonious air and said this, then returned to normal when Miss Mengmeng pouted:

"Then... Miss Mengmeng, would you be interested in participating in it yourself? I think an investigator like you, who truly cares about the people of the Federation, would be very suitable to be the protagonist of the story, just like Yulia in the short drama."

"...That sounds quite interesting."

A hint of longing appeared in Miss Mengmeng's eyes, but she quickly shook her head:

"Unfortunately, that won't work... I'm different from Miss Yulia. She's your employee, while I'm an FBI investigator. I don't have much time to cooperate with your filming. As for your idea of ​​actually filming my investigation process, that's even more impossible. Most of the cases I handle need to be kept confidential. How can I film them and show them to everyone?"

"Oh, that's a real shame."

Emery sighed sincerely:

"After all, Mengmeng, you're a great beauty. Working for me would be very promising... at least it would be more lucrative than working for the FBI. But if it affects your regular job, then there's nothing I can do. I know you love your job, so I won't ask you to quit your job as an investigator to work for me."

"Thanks for understanding."

Miss Mengmeng also said very seriously:

“You are indeed a somewhat different kind of capitalist, Emerald. You are still quite a distance from the kind-hearted and beautiful woman that Julia described, but at least you have a conscience compared to other capitalists.”

"...Do they have a conscience? That's hardly a compliment to capitalists."

Emery remained silent for a few seconds, her expression somewhat complicated, then chuckled softly:

"Then that's settled. My invitation is valid indefinitely. If one day you change your mind and don't want to be an investigator anymore, you can come to me anytime. I guarantee you'll become a big star in the Federation."

"Hahaha... Thank you for your kind offer, Emery, but that's probably not possible. I love my job, and unless I die in the line of duty or can no longer do it, I'll probably be an investigator for life."

Miss Mengmeng laughed heartily twice, then shook hands with Amelie before leaving with Miss Shuying, who was already getting impatient.

"...The time isn't right yet, but it's only a matter of time."

Watching Miss Mengmeng's departing figure, Amelie's smile became somewhat meaningful.

The fiery female investigator, Momo Bell, also appears in the original game and is one of Julia's harem members. Unlike Emerald and Viliana, who are villains who are redeemed after being defeated, Momo Bell joins the game as a companion she encounters, just like Marcy. However, she appears a little later in the game.

When she was formulating her plans, Emery had already listed Mengmeng Bell as one of her main targets. Sooner or later, Miss Mengmeng would join Blue Star Films.

After all, superhero movies are popular, and spy blockbusters are just as popular.

Miss Mengmeng has both good looks and acting skills. It would be a waste of her talent if she didn't become an actress and play an investigator but instead became a real investigator.

But Miss Mengmeng clearly loves her job, and it's really impossible to poach her through normal means. We can only wait for her to experience some setbacks first.

Emery already had a general idea in mind regarding this.

. . . . .

On the other hand, after leaving Locke City and sending Miss Shuying back to the Elf Embassy, ​​Miss Mengmeng couldn't wait to return to the Federal Bureau of Investigation, intending to continue investigating the human child abduction case.

The four children she rescued will be adopted by kind-hearted people through the investigation bureau, and the six criminals she arrested will be handed over to the procuratorate for legal proceedings.

However, just when Miss Mengmeng thought the matter was over, the forensic doctor who examined the six criminals told her some terrible news.

"You...what did you say? Two people died? But they're clearly alive!"

Miss Mengmeng's eyes widened, hoping the forensic doctor was joking with her.

"No, those two people have been dead for at least two days. They were disguised as living people by someone using extremely sophisticated necromancy and came back with you. They even almost fooled me."

The forensic doctor, however, looked very serious.

"Varied……"

Miss Mengmeng gritted her teeth, and after a long while, she sighed helplessly and waved her hand:

"Alright, I understand. I will be responsible for investigating and writing the report. You don't need to worry about it anymore."

"Yes, sir."

The forensic doctor didn't meddle; after giving Ms. Mengmeng a detailed examination report, he turned and left her office.

Miss Mengmeng continued to grit her teeth, almost breaking them.

"Aimee! Litte!"

Clearly, the only person who could have targeted the criminals was Emerald. After all, Emerald had told Miss Mengmeng that she didn't trust the mouths of the living, so she still chose two out of the six criminals to kill and use necromancy to obtain information.

Miss Mengmeng glanced at the forensic report and immediately confirmed her guess, because the souls in the bodies of the two criminals had long since disappeared, and the traces of magic indicated that their souls were likely extracted at the moment of their death.

"Asshole! Asshole! Asshole!"

Miss Mengmeng angrily slammed her little fist on the table:

"I thought there really was a kind and beautiful person among capitalists. I was so naive! No matter how beautiful a capitalist is, they're all black inside! Full of rottenness!"

After hurling insults at Emerald for a while, Miss Mengmeng quieted down in frustration.

What else could she do?

Go back and arrest Emerald?

Just kidding. Putting aside the fact that she has absolutely no evidence, even if she did have evidence, she shouldn't have done this.

Emery already has evidence of her illegal search, and the capitalist's legal team is notoriously difficult to deal with; if things escalate, no one will come out on top.

Therefore, after calming down, Miss Mengmeng not only couldn't turn back to Locke City to arrest Emily because of this incident, but she also had to make up a reason when writing the report to help Emily cover up this matter from the Investigation Bureau.

After all, Miss Mengmeng is different from Yulia. She has already been through the harsh realities of society and knows that relying solely on dreams is not enough. One must learn to be tactful and compromise, otherwise she would not have become a Purple Star Investigator.

Anyway, the criminal who trafficked more than 70 human babies certainly deserved to die... Let's just leave it at that.
