Get off work and become a magical girl

Chapter 119

"This is..."

Hearing the words, Dengzhan hesitated for a moment, and then smiled awkwardly: "It's actually a bit embarrassing to say it, can you stop laughing?"

"what happened?"

"That is to say, I have actually found someone, but I didn't win."

Pointing to his own forehead, the lamp said with a "haha" smile: "I originally came to this lair with the enemy. I thought that I would not have a chance to challenge the pupa-level remnant beast, but the result is..."

"The result is?" Delphinium raised an eyebrow.

"As a result, I was almost caught, and I managed to escape after almost exhausting my magic power."

Speaking of this topic, Dengzhan scratched the back of his head subconsciously: "I didn't expect that man to be so strong."

"The man? You mean the culprit has been found?"

Delphinium asked, "Can you explain more clearly? What's going on?"

"It's a long story. In fact, it starts with the disappearance of the investigation team's team a week ago."

Lantern moved back to make himself more comfortable, and said after thinking about it: "But which thing should I start with? Inspector, have you heard about the previous thing from Bai Ji and the others?" ?”

"If you're talking about the process of the investigation team arriving in Bai'an City, then I understand roughly."

Delphinium nodded: "According to Bai Ji's description, you seem to have provided a lot of information to the investigation team."

"Yes, but not only that."

Dengzhan added: "Actually, the senior cat tail of the investigation team warned me when we first met, telling me not to take it lightly. What they are investigating now is actually more involved than imagined. Black Ember Dawn It seems that something very dangerous is being prepared."

"Black Ember Dawn?"

Delphinium couldn't help but feel puzzled: "The records in the investigation institute show that they are investigating the trajectory of the claw marks."

"According to Senior Maowei, that was their goal when they first came to Donghua State."

Dengzhan corrected: "However, the priority of this target has changed after a large-scale investigation of Donghua State. Because they found quite a few clues, all pointing to the same thing - the black ember dawn is What is planned in the south of Donghua Prefecture."

"So, what they were investigating later was actually related to Black Ember Dawn?"

Delphinium frowned: "What are those guys planning?"

Whether it's Clawmark or Ember Dawn, delphinium knows very little about these organizations.Because the appearance and rise of these people happened completely after she retired.

If it wasn't for the previous attack on Fangting City, she might not have figured out the difference between these organizations.

"we do not know."

Regarding Delphinium's question, Lantern just shook his head: "However, Senior Cattail once told me one thing before he disappeared."

"what?"

"About the disappearance of magical girls in the past two years."

Dengzhan folded his hands on his knees and stared into the delphinium's eyes: "Master Inspector, do you know that Black Ember Dawn has actually done a lot of bad things in Donghua Prefecture, and they even have a special person responsible for attacking those newcomers who have just taken office?" Magical girl."

"You don't need to be so formal, just call me Delphinium." Delphinium nodded slightly, "As for what you said, I have heard."

Some members of Black Ember Dawn can control the power of remnant beasts, and even hunt down magical girls in reverse, she already knew from Lin Xiaolu.

Rather, the fact that I am standing here as a magical girl now has a lot to do with Black Ember Dawn.

If it wasn't for that day, that night in Fangting City Wetland Park, when some of them wanted to do something to Lin Xiaolu, she wouldn't have become a magical girl again so resolutely.

In a sense, Delphinium herself was deeply affected by the incident.

"Delphinium? Is this your code name, Lord Inspector?" Dengzhan asked subconsciously.

"That's right." Delphinium continued to nod.

Seeing Delphinium affirmed, Dengzhan continued: "Then, Senior Patrol... Do you know how many magical girls have disappeared in Donghua Prefecture in the past two years?"

"...how many people?" Hearing her question, delphinium had some bad premonition.

"There are 11 recorded magical girls with certification cards alone."

Dengzhan looked at the delphinium seriously, and said word by word: "The number of magical girls who disappeared without a sound is not counted in this number. In fact, quite a few children are in the novice stage and have not yet obtained certification. cards, and even some people disappeared without getting in touch with the Bureau of Different Strategies. Although it is not recorded in the files, but according to the feedback from the sowers in various places, if these children are added, the number may be doubled. The final result is , more than 20 magical girls have disappeared in the past two years."

"Two years? 22 people?" Delphinium said in amazement, "There are so many? There are only so many magical girls in the entire southern part of Donghua Prefecture, and 22 people disappeared in two years, and they were not discovered until recently?"

"This is also a considerable doubt in the incident, but unfortunately we have no clue."

Hugging his knees, the lamp lowered his eyes: "I heard that in some cities, even the sowers are missing, and I don't know where it is so unlucky."

Delphinium also looked away when she heard the words, and did not express any opinion on this topic.

"In short, we have a lot of doubts about this. Black Ember Dawn seems to be very enthusiastic and persistent in besieging and killing magical girls, and has repeatedly emphasized words like 'ritual'. It seems that some strange activities are going on."

Seeing that the delphinium was silent, Dengzhan said by himself: "Senior Maowei asked me if I had encountered any abnormal things in Bo'an City when he came, and those are probably the dark embers and dawns operating in the dark. signs."

"In fact, I did feel some strange things in my usual actions..."

Lantern began to describe, and listed several places that he felt strange, and the reasons.

The reason why it is strange is because Dengzhan herself can't explain what she feels clearly.The places she listed were all places where she had patrolled or fought, but after that, she always felt that there was still something hidden.

The list she gave was finally handed over to Maowei, and the next day, the investigation team began to investigate the locations described in Lantern's list.

In the first few days, Maowei occasionally communicated with Dengzhan to communicate the progress of some investigations.But then, one day, Cattail suddenly disappeared.

Dengzhan contacted the Bureau of Different Strategies, and spent a lot of manpower to search in Bo'an City, but in the end they couldn't find any trace of Maowei and others. In desperation, he chose to report the matter to the Investigation Institute.

In the process of waiting for the investigation institute to come, Deng Chan, who has always felt restless, feels that this matter has a lot to do with him, and wants to search for more clues.So, together with the Bureau of Different Strategies, a detailed investigation was carried out around the locations provided by Dengzhan, trying to find all kinds of clues.

Whether it was suspicious things or people, they were all summed up one by one, and finally placed on the desk of the Bureau of Different Strategies.

After researching those materials, Dengzhan locked on a few particularly suspicious characters, and after a day of follow-up investigation, he locked the target on a certain man.

According to the information, this man used to be a magician, and was arrested and punished by the Bureau of Different Strategies for engaging in gray business.Later, he was released after serving his sentence and was deprived of the ability to use spells, so he became a vagrant.

And during the period before and after the accident in the cat tail team, this person appeared several times around the places designated by the lamp, and his behavior was very suspicious.

After locking on this person, Dengzhan decisively took the initiative to try to track his trail, but what she didn't expect was that she got lost inexplicably during the tracking process.

After following the man into an underground passage, she got lost in it, and after a few twists and turns, she found herself in this space that seemed to be a lair.

At first, she also thought that she had come to the Different Strategy Bureau, but soon, she met several employees who were also trapped in the Different Strategy Bureau, and learned from those employees that this was not the real Different Strategy Bureau at all. .

Knowing that this is the lair of the chrysalis level remnant beast, she re-defined her goal and began to find the center of the lair with the main purpose of defeating the remnant beast.

Lantern's magic outfit has the ability to track and investigate, so in fact, she did it very quickly. She found the center of the lair, and more importantly, she also found the man she was following all the way.

——The man was feeding the beast.
