The Death Plan of a Hero of the Empire

"I will."

Alonya responded, then walked up to the children and smiled.

"Kids, can I ask you a few questions?"

Several children looked a little timid.

"Don't be afraid, she is also an investigator and my colleague." Li Jie comforted her.

The children immediately relaxed, obviously trusting Li Jie very much.

"I don't know what happened..." one child replied, "we were going back to the reformatory, and then some bad guys took us to a carriage, and then I don't remember anything."

"Me too, I fell asleep suddenly," replied the other child, "and then woke up and went home."

"Yeah, me too, it's like I fell asleep."

Hearing the children's answers, Alonia thought for a while and asked again.

"Do you feel any discomfort or pain?"

"Hmm... Is it okay to be a little hungry?" "I'm very hungry too, Aunt Shanila, is there anything else to eat?" "I want to eat..."

At least from the children's answers, it can be seen that they have no pain or discomfort, that is to say, the kidnappers did not hurt them.

"After you were brought into the carriage by those bad guys, you don't remember anything, you only know that you woke up and went home?"

"Ah."

The children nodded.

"I see."

Alonya didn't continue to ask, but turned to look at Li Jie.

"That's it. Since the children came back safe and sound, let's go here first. It's so late, the children should rest, and we have to go back."

"Let me see you off." Shanila Yard said.

"Don't bother you, Lu Nier, let's go, Li Jie..."

Alonya paused, and looked at Li Jie's expression.

"You stay at home today."

"Thank you, captain." Li Jie was a little grateful. In fact, she was about to ask Alonia to stay in the reformatory today. After all, this happened, she was not at ease.

"Then Lu Nier and I will go back first."

Alonia said.

"Goodbye."

Lu Nier also said goodbye, and wanted to go back with Alonia first.

"Wait." Shanila said suddenly, "I have a presumptuous request, can I ask Mr. Lunier to stay in our reformatory tonight?"

The three members of the team were a little surprised by Shanila's sudden request.

"This is up to Lunier's opinion." Alonia said, "Lunier, what do you think?"

"Can I ask why?"

Lu Nier didn't want to stay here because he felt that something might happen.

"This happened to the children today. Although the children have been released, I am afraid that the prisoners may change their minds and think about the children again. If they sneak into the reformatory at night , the children will be in danger." Shanila said sincerely, "I have seen Mr. Lunier's strength, so I hope you can stay and protect the children overnight."

"Well, I think I still..."

Without hesitation, Lu Nier wanted to find an excuse to reject her.

however……

When the words come to the lips, they change.

"Let's stay here, those prisoners do have the possibility of turning back, not to mention protecting the safety of civilians is my duty."

"That's really great, Li Jie, help me prepare a place for Mr. Lunier to live."

Lunier looked back at Alonia, and Alonia smiled back.

Just now, Alonia stretched out her hand and lightly pinched Lu Nier's lower back, obviously reminding him to accept this request.

"I'll go back first, Xiaolu, let's work harder tonight."

Chapter 141 Bright but short-lived brilliance (6)

Lunier knew what Alonia wanted him to stay.

It was to investigate the abnormality of the reformatory, that is, the funding problem and some things Shanila was hiding, and to confirm that guess.

However, it is one thing to know that Lu Nier is not very willing to stay in the reformatory school, not because he is unwilling to investigate the case. The reason is the same as before, because he is afraid of the ability of the [Gem of Misfortune].

He himself was not afraid, but it would be a crime to affect other innocent people in the reformatory.

But now it seems to have to stay here.

"You can sleep here tonight."

Shanila took Lunil to a room. Judging from the obvious signs of moving inside, it was a utility room, but it was emptied and cleaned for Lunil, and the floor was paved.

Although this is a bit shabby, after Lunier has seen the residences of other children, he doesn't think so at all.

At least it's a single room.

"No need, I'll watch at the door tonight." Lu Nier said, "I probably won't sleep."

"How about that, we still have to rest, let's take turns." Shanila said, "You, me, and Li Jie, the three of us take turns to watch the night, how about it?"

"Well, that's it."

Soon it was night, Lu Nier was on his first shift, he moved a stool, sat at the door of the children's dormitory, and then just stared blankly.

The vigil is like this, just like standing guard. If you want to talk about vigilance, although Lu Nier is not particularly concentrated, with his sharp senses now, if there is any abnormal movement, he will be aware of it immediately.

Lunier heard footsteps and looked back.

Shanila walked towards him, a good-natured smile on her face.

"Shall I help you find a book to relieve your boredom?"

"Thank you, but I still don't need it." Lunier refused, "I don't want to read now."

"Then how about chatting with my old aunt?"

"I'm not very good at chatting..."

Lu Nier tried to politely refuse, because he really couldn't.

"You don't need to say it, it's fine to listen to me talking alone. I'm getting old, and I always want to talk to someone."

"Okay, please sit down."

Lu Nier moved a chair from the side and handed it to Shanila.

Shanila took the chair, sat down beside Lu Nier, and started talking on her own.

"What do you think of this child, Li Jie?"

"It's okay." Lunier commented objectively, "Although he is usually introverted and doesn't speak much, he will definitely do his best when encountering things. He is also very smart and a good teammate."

"That's right..." Shanila was a little surprised by Lu Neil's evaluation, "I'm really curious about how the child will react when you say that about her, she is indeed a good child, I hope you can take care of her as a teammate in the future .”

"Yeah." Luner replied.

"Do you know what demi-human is the most excluded by humans?" Shanila asked suddenly.

"Most crowded out by humans?"

Lunier thought for a while, his research on demihumans is not deep, he just has a rough idea, and he really doesn't know about this kind of thing.

So he replied bluntly.

"I do not know."

"The answer is simple."

Shanila was not surprised by Lu Nier's answer, but said the answer.

"That is mixed blood, that is, children of demihumans and humans. Such children, whether on the side of demihumans or on the side of humans, will be excluded by both sides under normal circumstances." Shanila said with emotion, " How about it, what do you think of this phenomenon?"

"It wasn't a big surprise."

The experience during this period made Lunier clearly aware of the contradiction between humans and demihumans. Although they coexist peacefully now, humans are obviously very xenophobic, and demihumans seem to hate the strength of humans.

"Lize is a hybrid." Shanila said, "a hybrid of human and elf, a half-elf."

"Half-elf?"

This was the first time Neil knew about it.

"Well, although it is a rare and excellent hybrid that inherits the advantages of both sides, but because of this, Li Jie has had a hard life. In the human world, elves are famous for their longevity and beauty. Many rich people want to have something with elves. This even triggered a war between humans and elves, so that the elves in the imperial capital are so rare that they can almost be regarded as one of the rarest subhuman races, and Li Jie inherited the beauty of her parents. You should have seen this before. right."

"Correct."

Lu Nier thought about it, indeed in terms of appearance, Li Jie's appearance can be regarded as very delicate.

"Because of her mother's teaching, she knew how to hide herself since she was a child, made herself inconspicuous, deliberately put ash and mud on her face to cover herself, and was alert to anyone she met..." Shani La recalled and narrated, "Her mother entrusted Li Jie to me before she died, and it took me a long time to let the child put down his guard, trust me, and live in the reformatory with peace of mind. Over the years , she is the most sensible one, and also the hardest one. Even if she becomes an investigator now, she will advance her own salary to give subsidies to the reformatory... She is really a good child, I hope you can do it with As a teammate, treat her well."

"Well, that's what I should do."

In fact, Lu Nier has already discovered that something is wrong.

Shanila's tone was so weird, so weird that Lu Neil felt that her attitude and what she said now seemed to be asking Gu Gu, as if she knew that she was about to pass away, so she had to leave unfinished things behind. Entrusted to him the same.

"Okay, thank you for listening to my nagging, I will go to rest for a while, and I will pick up your class soon."

"I see."

After watching Shanila leave, Lu Nier started his boring vigil.

It seemed to be very peaceful tonight, and no bad luck happened, at least Lu Nier didn't find anything that could be called bad luck.

He, Li Jie, and Shanila took turns keeping watch until dawn.

Nothing happened.

After breakfast in the reformatory, Lunier and Li Jie set off on their way back.

After all the missing children were found and the holidays were used up, there was no reason for them to stay any longer.

This mission is classified as an ordinary case without holiday rewards. After all, those children were sent back without any harm. In the eyes of the investigators who are responsible for judging the mission level, this case does not have much significance .

Alonia didn't take the initiative to ask whether Lu Nier had found anything in the reformatory school.

New missions will come soon, but they are not difficult or strange missions, but like before, they are not very bad in nature and ordinary in difficulty.

Today's time is fast approaching night.

At dinner time, just after dinner, the phone rang in the living room.

Alonia answered and listened to a few words.

"Lu Nier, someone is looking for you."

Lu Nier reached out to take the phone, and before he heard a few words, he knew that it was Angela who came again.

When he came to the living room, Lu Nier saw Angela waving towards him. It seemed that every time he saw Lu Nier, she would wave her hand to signal her existence, so that Lu Nier could see her at the first sight.

"You've worked hard, Mr. Investigator." Angela looked a little proud, like a child who couldn't wait to show off her new toy, "How is it, how is your investigation going?"

"I haven't had time to check yet." Lu Nier replied honestly, "Where are you?"

"I found some interesting things. I went to interview the victim shop of the Kia robbery today and found a very interesting place." Angela began to talk, "The Asians were cracked and captured by your investigation bureau. After that, although most of the looted goods were found and returned, some of the goods disappeared completely and were not found.”

"What are those items that haven't been found yet?" Runier asked.

"Mostly jewelry and jewellery," Angela replied, "remember that jewelry store we went to? They were the worst of the robbery because their items were only recovered If there is a small part, the loss will be heavy."

It is impossible for jewels to disappear out of thin air, that is to say, the robbed jewels are likely still in the hands of the demi-human robbers.

However, after the last arrest operation by the Bureau of Investigation, according to the confessions of those prisoners, it seems that all of them have been arrested.
