Miss White Wolf smiled and shook her head. She never intended to involve any member of Ice Stone in matters related to the Integration Movement. This danger should be faced by her alone.

"You have a more important mission," she explained. "I am worried that Bingshi's enemies will take action. When you return, you must lead the security team and keep a close watch on all suspicious persons, especially those related to the institute."

Razer and Franka were not stupid at all. After Miss White Wolf's reminder, the name of the Business Federation immediately came to mind. The two of them immediately became nervous and nodded carefully: "Don't worry, we will definitely take strict precautions."

"Don't be too stressed. Just be more careful." Miss White Wolf smiled. "As the company continues to grow, I will also look for more security specialists to join us as soon as possible."

At this point, all the important matters were arranged, and Miss White Wolf was ready to leave. Suddenly, out of the corner of her eye, she saw Miss Aurora next to her.

The girl was hiding in her position, secretly observing their every move. When she saw her gaze coming over, she was so scared that her face turned red and she looked at a loss.

Miss White Wolf then realized that she had almost ignored the newcomer, so she walked over, greeted him with a smile, and touched Aurora's clothes. "Miss Aurora, it will be very cold when we get to the tundra, much colder than Kjerag. Is your clothes okay?"

Miss Aurora dodged her gaze and said in panic, "I, I've been to the polar regions before. No, I'm not afraid of the cold. Don't worry."

Miss White Wolf was quite curious why the other person always looked nervous and afraid when talking to her. The last person who behaved similarly was Miss Ina, but Miss Ina was purely nervous, while Miss Aurora was more afraid.

Are you terrible?

Probably... no, Miss Platinum also said that she is very cute sometimes.

Adhering to the concept of helping newcomers overcome difficulties, she made a special trip to sit next to Miss Aurora and carefully and meticulously told her a lot of things to pay attention to in life.

Ten minutes later, the aircraft temporarily stopped at the Uno City floating port. Miss White Wolf stood up and said goodbye to everyone with her usual warm smile on her face.

When she turned around, a layer of frost instantly formed on her face.

The staff on both sides bowed and saluted, and the nobles held their swords indifferently and walked away without hesitation.

The city of Uno is located in the southwest of the Ursus Empire. To the west are continuous mountains that lead directly to the barren areas of the border area. The other three directions are connected to the inland by railway tracks.

This is an extremely unique small land city. Normally, since land cities have no resistance to natural disasters, their development will be greatly restricted.

Fortunately, Uno City had not encountered any natural disasters in its history of several hundred years. In addition, the area was a traditional trade route, so the city had developed well. Although the scale was far smaller than that of a mobile city, it was much better than a normal land city.

The favorable conditions induced some nobles to settle in this city. This was also an important reason why Uno City had a small floating port. In case a natural disaster really occurred, the nobles had to flee with their families.

After leaving the floating port, White Wolf first inquired about the residences of the nobles and determined the location of the city's military police team. He then found an inn close to the military police team and rented the most expensive room in the inn.

After a short rest in the room, she contacted one of the Marquis's subordinates to discuss some matters.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, Bai Lang went directly to the military police department, stated her identity, and asked to meet the highest officer there. A clerk helped her to make the announcement, and another took her to the conference room to wait.

After receiving the news, the commander of the military police department hurried to the conference room and saw the nobleman with a cold face sitting leisurely on the main seat, flipping through the military novel he often read. A gorgeous ceremonial sword was placed beside the nobleman.

"You're welcome. Please sit anywhere." The white wolf pointed to the seat next to him, just like the owner.

How could the commander dare to agree? He knew very well that the man in front of him was not an ordinary noble, but a genuine military lord. Such nobles naturally had the most terrifying suppressive power over people like them.

The other party only needs one word to bring him to the military court, and the military court is controlled by the nobles, and mainly by military nobles.

However, there is no personal grudge between the two parties, and as long as he doesn't make any mistakes, the other party should not do anything to him.

"My Lord, I'll just stand here." The commander bowed and smiled apologetically, "I wonder if you have any instructions for me since you suddenly came to visit me."

White Wolf put down the book in his hand and said calmly: "I am here because of what happened yesterday."

The commander's face turned pale instantly.

Chapter 2023 Soul Purification 07-27-12 00:02:

The commander of the military police department was certainly not panicking for no reason.

He knew very well that the baron involved was just a powerless and declining nobleman, and his deceased daughter was merely a bastard. Even so, it took him a lot of effort to get things done.

Now, if among the dead civilians there was someone whom the Viscount valued, then as the chief of the local military police, he would definitely be to blame.

To put it more seriously, if you are not careful, it will not only be a question of whether you can keep your position.

Miss White Wolf stared closely at the commander in front of her, paying attention to every change in his expression, and slowly asked tentatively:

"I heard that the cause of the accident is not simple..."

"Yes, yes, this..." The commander's lips trembled, and he didn't know how to answer for a moment.

"You knew this was going to happen, didn't you? But you let it happen."

In any case, this was an accusation that could lead to a court-martial. The commander was stunned, fell to his knees, and cried:

"Sir, I didn't, please, I really have no other choice. I don't want the accident to happen, but I really have no other choice."

Miss White Wolf was unmoved by the commander's crying, as if the person in front of her was just an object. She continued to press, "Is there something or...someone, that stopped you?"

"No one is stopping me, my lord."

The commander cried and tried to find a reason to get away with it: "Those infected people are all demons. They teamed up with the bandits in the slums and there is no way to control them. I have appealed many times and asked the nearby big cities to send troops to hang them all on the gallows, but I am powerless and no one is willing to listen."

Miss White Wolf touched her neck and said thoughtfully, "So, it was completely an unintentional mistake on your part?"

"Yes, sir." The commander of the military police department saw the light and said anxiously, "I really didn't expect this action, but I have planned a full six rounds of encirclement and suppression plan. When the storm is over, I will personally lead the team to completely clean up the termites in the slums. Really, you can check my plan."

It seems that this is probably not an official move by Ursus, or a deliberate arrangement by some nobles. Is it that Xiaota can't control his own men? White Wolf thought secretly.

While she was thinking, the commander got up, took out a red-covered notebook from the cabinet in the corner of the room, and attentively spread it out and placed it in front of her.

The notebook was very thick and looked very important. It recorded the commander's great military achievements since he took office. The commander, who took the initiative to turn the pages, was a little careful. He did not turn all the pages at once, but turned three or five pages at a time, deliberately letting the nobleman see his previous fruitful results.

'On June 13, 16 infected people, 9 slum criminals, burned to death'

'On July 19, 22 slum criminals were hanged'

'On August 12, two infected children were burned at the stake'

'On September 13, the Nancheng District encirclement and suppression operation killed six infected people'

……

Miss White Wolf looked at the words "hanging", "shooting", "burning" and so on, and frowned subconsciously, then slowly smiled: "Well done, are you still using the burning punishment here?"

Burning is a form of torture used exclusively by the Ursus Empire against infected people. It involves pushing infected criminals into coke and burning them, which is somewhat like purifying the source of infection.

About seven years ago, Victorian journalists reported this practice internationally, and various regions responded and condemned it. Under huge public pressure, the Ursus Empire ordered the abolition of the burning of the dead. However, although the official announcement was abolished, some regions continued to use it privately due to their belief in "fire purification" or other reasons. Uno City seemed to be one of them.

"Yes." The commander considered the noble's tone, his face showing humility and pride, "Sir, do you believe in the theory of soul salvation?"

"Soul salvation? Tell me about it." Miss White Wolf smiled and nodded.

The commander was so excited when he heard the other party's permission that he didn't notice until this moment that the Viscount in front of him was a dazzlingly beautiful young lady.

A strong premonition came to his mind that what happened today was not a bad luck, but instead a chance for him to turn things around!

He suppressed his excitement and said solemnly:

"Sir, the theory of soul salvation comes from the mysterious Great Flame. One day, the supreme and holy flame will burn all sinful souls. Their bodies will be burned, but their souls will be purified in the flames. Therefore, this is not only a punishment for sinners, but also a supreme grace."

I think it's more like a cult, Miss White Wolf thought. A twisted system creates a twisted mind, so weird that it makes people want to doubt its authenticity.

She nodded approvingly: "It's an interesting idea. It seems that you like burning people at the stake. No, you like saving souls, right?"

"That's right. We must always give sinners a chance to be saved." The commander admitted honestly.

"Okay, I'll remember that." White Wolf nodded casually.

For some reason, a chill suddenly came from behind the commander, making him shiver.

Maybe the door wasn't closed properly, he thought.

White Wolf stopped looking at the note in front of him, as if he had lost interest in it all of a sudden. He said directly, "I came here this time because an accident affected one of my business lines. In order to avoid doubts from my partners, the matter must be resolved quickly."

The commander assured earnestly: "Don't worry, I have sent the most elite law enforcement team over there. I believe that it won't be long before all the murderers are brought to justice."

"Well, you should deal with it as soon as possible. I also saw something in the newspaper, something about integration?"

"Integration Movement."

"Yes, the Integration Movement, a familiar name. What is it? Is it a person or a criminal organization?"

“Please forgive me, sir. We are not very clear about this either. You may be familiar with this because of Lord Marquis Uskan, who once wiped out a gang of thugs called the Integration Movement in the tundra. But this is definitely not the same thing. We are thousands of kilometers away from the tundra.

"The newspaper reported it because the investigators saw those words at the crime scene. Some criminals like to leave their names at the scene after committing a crime, so they speculated that it was related to the perpetrator."

"What a arrogant murderer." Miss White Wolf looked interested. "I'll go take a look when I have time."

"Sir, if you want to visit the site, you can contact me at any time. The commander and all members of the military police department are at your disposal."

Chapter 2023 Alyosha07-28-12 00:02:

After leaving the military police department, Miss White Wolf briefly reviewed the current intelligence information, and then began to look for a taxi, intending to go to the scene of the incident in the western suburbs.

Although she could get a special car from the military and police with just a word and have direct access to the most detailed internal intelligence, if she did so, she would probably only see what others wanted her to see.

After comprehensive consideration, she still planned to conduct the investigation on her own. Once she found any clues, she would use her identity to check the information of the Ursus Military Police.

There was a blue taxi parked not far from the corner of the street. Miss White Wolf slowly approached and noticed that the Ursus female driver was taking a nap on the steering wheel.

It certainly wouldn't be comfortable, she thought, and quietly opened the door and slid the sword under the back seat.

The driver was still sleeping peacefully. The noise inside the car only made her ears twitch, but he had no intention of waking up. Miss White Wolf had no choice but to stand at the door of the car and deliberately coughed twice.

The noise finally woke up the driver. She was in a daze for a while, then immediately understood what was going on. She turned around quickly. No matter who the person was, this sudden and reckless behavior had made her angry, and she had to say a few words to him, the quintessence of Ursus.

She saw the passenger basking in the slightly warm winter sunshine, waving at her with a smile, asking with her eyes if she could get on the bus. For some reason, her mood suddenly improved.

"Sorry, I just took a nap. Where are you going?" the driver asked, while quietly lifting her hair to try to cover the scar on her right cheek. She had a fierce temperament, and with that horrible scar, she could easily be mistaken for a bad person.

"In the western suburbs, towards Ebony Town." Miss White Wolf sat down and closed the car door.

"What are you doing there? Ebony Town is full of slums. Look at..."

"Don't you look like someone from the slums?" White Wolf asked with a smile. She was still wearing the same clothes she wore when she went to Kjerag. Although they were not gorgeous or expensive, they were elegant and clean, which was very different from the style of the slums.

"Okay, I'm sorry, please sit down and let's go now."

The driver steered the car skillfully, speeding along the city road. Perhaps he was bored, so he casually asked, "What's your name?"

"Miss Farina, how about you?"

The driver laughed heartily: "Do you think I deserve the title of 'Miss'? Just call me Alyosha."

"Alyosha, what a familiar name."

"Of course you are familiar with it. In every Ursus city, there are a hundred brothers and sisters with the same name as me."

"So this is ah."

"Of course. Hey, I'd like to know what you were doing in Ebony Town. You don't look like someone from the slums. I have to remind you that it's a bit of a mess over there. Something happened there yesterday, and the Crows sent people to investigate."

"crow?"

Alyosha put his hand on his forehead, feeling depressed that he always used such slang casually, which would be bad if others heard it: "I was talking about the military and police team, you must pretend you didn't hear it."

"What did you say? I can't hear you. Oh, you said I don't look like someone from the slums. Well, that makes sense. I am indeed not from the slums."

Alyosha was stunned at first, but soon a smile spread across her face. She controlled the steering wheel and turned a right angle, heading towards the main road leading out of the city: "Where are you from?"

"It's a secret. You can take a guess."

Bai Lang's words obviously aroused the interest of the driver. She glanced at the rearview mirror and said decisively:

"First, Syracuse must be ruled out."

"I am a Lupus, and you want to exclude Syracuse, which has the most Lupus."

"Just say it, right?"

"Uh, that's right, very correct."

"See," the driver said proudly, "the Syracusans always look bitter and resentful. It is said that their faces are gloomy even in the sun."

That's not necessarily true, White Wolf thought, and she recalled Miss Texas, but when she thought about it carefully, she suddenly felt that what the other person said made some sense.

"The second thing is to eliminate Ursus," said Alyosha.

"why is that?"

"The Ursus are not like you."

She spoke softly and had a nice smile, which made it hard for people to get angry. The driver muttered in his heart that if the other party was really Ursus, they would have had a fight by now.

"But I think I look like an Ursus." White Wolf argued, because she was raised by Ursus.

"Can you drink a lot?" Alyosha asked.
