Chapter 156 The Survival Rules of High-Level Monsters (6K)
"Wait a minute, Lele seems to have called me." Bai Qiuyue glanced at the phone screen and said, "Speaking of which, haven't you and Uncle Li confessed your identities to your sister and mother?"
"You have to take it step by step slowly." Li You said, "If I were Lele, seeing my brother and father suddenly tell me that they are magical girls, my brain would burn out quickly."
Bai Qiuyue nodded, and then connected the phone.
"Hey, Lele, did you call me for something?"
Seeing that there was no response from the other end of the phone, she tilted her head in doubt.
In the distance, Li Lele, who was holding a mobile phone, was completely stunned.
Unexpectedly, the weapon witch is Bai Qiuyue.
After recovering, she picked up her phone and started talking.
Sensing that Li Lele on the other end of the phone was absent-minded, Bai Qiuyue frowned suspiciously.
"Are you okay, Lele?"
"I'm fine." Li Lele replied, and after a brief chat with Bai Qiuyue, she hung up the phone.
While flying home, Li Lele began to think about things.
Although Bai Qiuyue is said to be a weapon witch, Captain Lei has already told her that Bai Qiuyue is registered with the Witch Countermeasures Bureau, so there is no threat.But what happened to the cardinal who had been by her side all the time? Didn't the two of them fight to the death before? Why did the relationship suddenly become so good?
Thinking of Linque and Bai Qiuyue's intimacy when they got along, she was slightly taken aback, and even blushed.
"No, Sister Yue, you are my brother's girlfriend!"
When she finished her daydreaming, she had already flown back to the window of her own house.
Opening her window with ease and getting in, she untransformed and came to her closet, ready to change into her pajamas and go to sleep.
Then her eyes fell on the previous coat, which was the same style as sister Cardinal.
As if sensing something on the coat, she slowly reached out to stroke the coat, and finally touched a strand of red hair.
Carefully rubbing this long red hair in the palm of his hand, the CPU in Li Lele's brain burned again.
One afternoon a few days later, the angel and witch walked slowly on the street, looking around while nibbling on the chocolate pie in her hand.
Ever since he confirmed his relationship with Bai Qiuyue, Li You seldom acted with her, but the angel and witch could still understand.
These days are unexpectedly calm, there are not many monsters and witches haunting, so the angel and witch are also free.
But looking at the frowning of the bald boss, the angel witch felt that something would happen in the city soon.
While walking, the Angel Witch suddenly smelled a vague black air.
"Ah, it looks like a witch." She couldn't help but say, "Let's get rid of her before the end of get off work time."
Putting her hands in her trouser pockets, she slowly walked towards an alley in the direction of the black air.
When she reached a corner, the Angel Witch stopped and stretched out her hand to create a spear out of thin air.
"It's here." She said softly.
When the angel witch came out of the corner and was about to throw her spear, she saw a woman in her early thirties squatting on the ground with her back to her.
In front of the woman was the corpse of a witch.
It turned out that the witch that the Angel Witch wanted to expel had already died long ago, and what she noticed was only the black air emanating from her broken body after death.
Sensing the sound of footsteps behind her, the woman turned her head. She slowly stopped her chewing mouth, and wiped the blood off her face with her hand.
After looking at each other for a few seconds, the angel witch couldn't help but whispered.
"What level of monster are you?"
Running in a hurry in the corridor of the hospital, Li You couldn't help dripping a few drops of sweat on his forehead.
Finally, he came to a ward, tried to calm himself down, and stretched out his hand to open the door.
Captain Lei who was sitting in the ward nodded when he saw him, and then stood up.
After a brief greeting with Captain Lei, Li You set his sights on the hospital bed, where lay the unconscious Angel Witch covered in scars.
"How could this be?" Li You couldn't help muttering.
When school was over, he received a conversation from Captain Lei, telling him that the angel witch was seriously injured and dying.
"I was rescued just now, and I don't know when she will wake up." Captain Lei said softly.
"Which witch did it to her?" Li You asked.
"It's not clear yet, but we will try our best to find out." Captain Lei replied.
A week later, the Angel Witch finally woke up.
"The person who attacked me is a monster. Its level is not low, and it is even far stronger than me." She said to Li You and Captain Lei beside her, "When I found her in the alley, it successfully hunted her. A witch."
"Would monsters actually hunt witches in turn?" Li You was a little surprised.
"The appearance of this monster is a woman in her early thirties." The angel witch continued.
The expressions of Li You and Captain Lei immediately became serious.
They naturally knew that this first-class monster must have occupied the body of a certain woman, and was dormant in human society as her.
This is obviously an extremely dangerous thing.
"Can you describe to us what she looks like?" Captain Lei asked.
"Sorry, I couldn't see her face clearly because her face was covered in blood at the time." Angel Witch replied.
Looking down at the bandages wrapped around her body, she continued.
"Speaking of which, this is considered a work-related injury, right? I must be paid for medical expenses and lost wages, and I will also receive my normal monthly salary."
"Don't worry about this, you should take a good rest." Captain Lei said.
Then he stroked his chin, thoughtfully.
"Follow me." He said to Li You.
He took Li You straight to Deep Hidden Well Prison, and Captain Lei led him to a cell where a monster was imprisoned.
That was the monster they captured before, Cheng Hua, who had invaded a human life.
"Captain Lei, what do you want me to do?" Cheng Hua raised his head and asked slowly.
Because he had been in the dark cell for a long time, the light coming from the corridor at the door made him feel extremely dazzling.
Looking at Cheng Hua in front of him, Captain Lei said calmly.
"Are there other high-level monsters in the city? Have they invaded human bodies like you and hibernated in human society as them?"
After a long while of silence, Cheng Hua finally replied.
"Yes."
"Tell me."
"In the eyes of your magical girls and those witches, our monsters can only be hunted, and there is almost no room for resistance." Cheng Hua said slowly, "But some monsters have unexpectedly grown up, become extremely powerful, and even In turn, I started hunting magical girls and witches to absorb their black energy and make myself stronger."
After hearing this, Li You and Captain Lei couldn't help but exchanged glances, while Cheng Hua continued talking.
"Not all monsters are greedy and stupid guys. Some monsters have begun to understand some things. They know that the most perfect way to hide in the human world is to blend in as humans."
"Two years ago, I accidentally met a similar person." Cheng Hua looked at Captain Lei and Li You, "I was surprised at the time, because this same kind hibernated as a human just like me. He Occupied the body of a university professor, and learned all his academic knowledge perfectly with his own wisdom. I have gone to listen to his lectures, and the lectures taught by real university professors are no different, or even better."
Captain Lei couldn't help frowning.
Compared with the ferocious monsters that hunt and kill humans, what is more frightening are those monsters who can think, grow, and live according to the norms of human society.
This means that they have begun to really invade human life.
No one wants to believe that the friends and colleagues who have been with him for more than ten years are actually monsters.His behavior is the same, he will smile and talk to you about the things in his memory, go home from work and live after work, he will be annoyed by the price increase of vegetables, meat and eggs, worry about the mortgage that cannot be paid, and complain that his children are rebellious .
When he seriously raised his head and told you that he was actually a monster, you thought he was just joking, and you smiled and patted him on the shoulder and said you are so funny.
In fact, everything he said was true. After occupying the human body, he began to learn to live with human thinking, and even lived more like a human than a human, and no one around him could tell.
Until later, he could even say that he was a monster indifferently, because he believed that he had concealed it perfectly enough, and everyone believed that it was just a joke.
"The monster told me that they are an organization and have penetrated into human society for a long time." Cheng Hua continued, "Because I am a third-level monster, it invited me to join their organization."
"So have you joined?" Captain Lei asked softly.
"I didn't join." Cheng Hua said with panic in his eyes, "Because I already had a faint feeling that this might be a bottomless pit."
"Tell me the name of that university professor." Captain Lei said simply.
"It's useless, it has already changed its identity at this moment." Cheng Hua shook his head, "Compared with its companions, it seems more cautious, even if people around it don't notice it, it will still change it every few years. identity of."
After exchanging a few words with Cheng Hua, Captain Lei nodded slightly.
"Thank you very much for the information you provided." He then led Li You out of the cell.
A few hours later, Cheng Hua, who was sleeping soundly, was awakened by the soft opening of the door.
When he opened his eyes sleepily, he saw a man standing at the door. Judging from his uniform, he was obviously a guard of Deep Well Prison.
"Is there anything you can do? Now is not the time to inquire, is it?" Cheng Hua said.
The man didn't answer his words, but closed the door casually, sat down calmly, and looked at Cheng Hua calmly through the special glass of the cell.
A few seconds later, a look of astonishment flashed in Cheng Hua's eyes, who were originally puzzled.
"Are you a monster too?" He said in surprise.
The man nodded slowly.
At this moment, Cheng Hua only felt stunned. He didn't expect that there would be such a bold monster who chose to occupy the body of the guard of the Deep Well Prison, and then hibernated.
"You broke the rules." The man said calmly. "So we have to get rid of you."
At the same time as he was speaking, the power of the entire Deep Well was cut off, all the lights went out, and it fell into complete darkness.
With a scream, calm was restored in the cell.
One minute later, the lights came back on, and the man walked slowly in the corridor, while the passing colleagues were complaining about the sudden power outage in the prison, and did not notice him at all.
The next day, Captain Lei, who got the news, rushed to the Deep Well Prison.
In the cell, he saw Cheng Hua's body, and his assailant destroyed the special glass of the cell with one blow, and even pierced Cheng Hua's heart.
"For a few minutes last night, the power supply of the entire prison was inexplicably cut off." The guard behind the Deep Well said, "Our technical staff launched an investigation and found that it was an accidental trip."
"What about the monitoring? Even if the power goes out, the monitoring will automatically activate the backup power supply, right?" Captain Lei turned to look at him, "Show me the monitoring that night."
"I'm sorry, sir, the surveillance was also broken that night."
Captain Lei remained silent.
Cheng Hua's death was not accidental at all. After sharing the information with him and Li You last night, he died.
He probably died because of it.
"They know the perfect way to hide in the human world, and that is to integrate into it as human beings."
What Cheng Hua said last night blew up in his mind.
Looking around at the guards of the Well of Deep Hidden who were talking about Cheng Hua's body, he seemed to realize something, and his figure froze for a second or two.
Now that the monsters have infiltrated into the deep well, they are guarding the deep well.
Probably more than one.
Last night, they deliberately cut off the power supply and monitoring, killed Cheng Hua cleanly, and then hid again.
Scanning the people in front of him silently, Captain Lei's eyes were deep.
Who is the monster that infiltrated?How long have they been infiltrating?
Returning to his own office of the Witch Countermeasures Bureau, Captain Lei began to log in to the archives, and began to search for files about high-level monsters.
When he saw the search results, he froze.
There are very few files that record high-level monsters, and there are still a lot of traces of modification and deletion. When Captain Lei tried to check the person who used the modification and deletion permission, the result displayed was a series of garbled characters.
A few drops of sweat passed silently across Captain Lei's cheeks and landed lightly on the ground.
Not only the Deep Well Prison, but probably even the Witch Countermeasure Bureau.
Thinking back carefully, Captain Lei realized that since the establishment of the Witch Countermeasure Bureau, there have been almost no campaigns to hunt down and expel high-level monsters.Everyone doesn't care much, because the monsters are very weak, and there are not many monsters that will grow into high-level ones.
Perhaps there is another possibility, that is, the high-level monsters have already been perfectly hidden.They even quietly infiltrated into the Witch Countermeasure Bureau in turn.
Standing up slowly, Captain Lei walked out of his office.
Walking in the corridor, he silently scanned everyone passing by.
These originally familiar figures became extremely suspicious in front of his eyes.
"Who is it, who is it?" He looked at the people passing by and clenched his fists lightly.
After working in the Witch Countermeasure Bureau for so many years, Captain Lei knew almost everyone, and in his memory, no one seemed like a monster.
All the facts were so clearly before his eyes, there were monsters lurking in the Witch Countermeasure Bureau, and even fought side by side with him as a comrade-in-arms, working together to expel the Witch and his own kind.
Their purpose is still unknown.
"I have to do something." Captain Lei said softly.
"We've already read the report you submitted urgently, Renekton." In the conference room on the top floor, the senior executives of the Witch Countermeasure Bureau looked at each other, and all looked at Captain Lei who was sitting silently.
After clearing his throat, a senior executive spoke first.
"I think this kind of thinking is too absurd. As the base camp for expelling witches and monsters, how could the Witch Countermeasures Bureau be infiltrated by monsters." He said, "We will conduct strict review procedures every year to ensure that no one will appear among us. Inner ghosts, no matter how smart the monsters are, they can't get away with it."
"Rekton has always been prudent in his work, and he will not submit this report to us rashly." Another senior executive said. "But having said that, we will conduct genetic tests on the body, flesh and hair of all our current staff members to see if the monsters inside can be caught."
"No way, haven't we already tested it before?" A high-level executive shook his head repeatedly, "After occupying the human body, the monster will completely fuse with the human flesh and blood genes, which cannot be detected by any scientific instruments, it is simply unbelievable. "
After discussing for a while, the senior management all looked at Captain Lei.
"Rekton, while handing in the report, I think you already have a solution? Let's talk about it."
Under their gaze, Captain Lei replied slowly.
"The current work of the Witch Countermeasures Bureau focuses on self-screening, screening out all suspicious targets as much as possible, and even if the results cannot be obtained, they must be imprisoned."
"This is your so-called method?" A high-level executive shook his head, "Impossible, the Witch Countermeasure Bureau shoulders the heavy responsibility of protecting the entire city, even if it is shut down for a day, it will leave the city empty, let alone carry out what you have done. Long-term action?"
"Sirs, now is the best time to screen." Captain Lei said in a deep voice, "We must get rid of this invisible time bomb as soon as possible, otherwise one day the Witch Countermeasure Bureau will be completely overthrown by it."
"You may be a little nervous." A high-level executive couldn't help but sighed, "Just the death of a third-level monster reminds you of so much? And you didn't show any information in your report. Basis."
"Let's trust Keton." The leading executive said.
Ultimately, the top brass agreed to a vote.
The seven senior officials voted in turn, and finally approved Captain Lei's proposal with a result of [-] to [-].
Captain Lei seemed a little surprised by this, he didn't expect that the senior management actually agreed with his idea.
He shook his head, dispelling the doubts in his heart.
"You officers are all veterans who established the Witch Countermeasures Bureau. I am too suspicious of their guesses."
After the meeting ended, the high-level executives left the meeting one after another, and the leading high-level staff looked at Captain Lei.
The two slowly walked side by side in the corridor.
"I have to admit that your idea is indeed a little bold." He said.
"Please forgive my recklessness." Captain Lei nodded slightly, "Also, thank you for being willing to stand by my side, teacher."
Yes, the leading executive is named Gao Yuan, who is Captain Lei's guide and mentor.For Captain Lei, he has given him incredible trust and cultivation, and Captain Lei has always been very grateful to him.
"If what you said is true, how embarrassing it would be." Gao Yuan sighed, "Most people in the Countermeasure Bureau are my students, and I often give speeches at their weddings, you say this."
Captain Lei nodded silently.
Under the impetus of Gao Yuan, the Witch Countermeasures Bureau quickly passed Captain Lei's proposal, suspended all external activities, and began a top-down screening.
This suddenly caused an uproar in the Witch Countermeasures Bureau.
After learning that it was Captain Lei who proposed this resolution, most people found it hard to understand and pointed the finger at him.
In the process, the top executives gradually began to shake their positions, because this is really a time-consuming and labor-intensive activity with little effect.
Only Gao Yuan, Captain Lei's teacher, stood firmly on his side and continued to push for the implementation of the resolution.
Unexpectedly, in the end, a few lurking monsters were actually screened out.
After realizing that they could no longer hide, they chose to act, but were quickly expelled by the magical girls present.
The senior executives of the Witch Countermeasures Bureau were shocked, and immediately traced their identities and continued to investigate.
Soon, everything came to light.
Cheng Hua, the monster imprisoned in the prison, was killed by their partnership, probably because Cheng Hua chose to betray the secret of his own kind.
"Thank you very much for your contribution, Keton." The high-level executives said sincerely at the meeting, "Our actions are meaningful, and the hidden ghosts have been caught and expelled by us."
Gao Yuan, who was sitting in the middle, smiled and nodded to Captain Lei expectantly, his eyes full of admiration.
"Then, everything is settled." A high-level executive breathed a sigh of relief, "The Witch Countermeasure Bureau can resume its activities."
Driven by Gao Yuan, the senior management applauded one after another.
Nodding repeatedly to the higher-ups, Captain Lei smiled.
When he turned to leave, he frowned again.
Is it really settled together?
The monster that killed Cheng Hua was expelled, and the large-scale screening of the Witch Countermeasures Bureau ended, and the matter seemed to be over satisfactorily.
When he was walking in the corridor, he stopped and suddenly remembered what Cheng Hua had said to him.
"I didn't dare to join their organization, because I had a faint feeling at the time. This might be a bottomless pit."
(End of this chapter)
"Wait a minute, Lele seems to have called me." Bai Qiuyue glanced at the phone screen and said, "Speaking of which, haven't you and Uncle Li confessed your identities to your sister and mother?"
"You have to take it step by step slowly." Li You said, "If I were Lele, seeing my brother and father suddenly tell me that they are magical girls, my brain would burn out quickly."
Bai Qiuyue nodded, and then connected the phone.
"Hey, Lele, did you call me for something?"
Seeing that there was no response from the other end of the phone, she tilted her head in doubt.
In the distance, Li Lele, who was holding a mobile phone, was completely stunned.
Unexpectedly, the weapon witch is Bai Qiuyue.
After recovering, she picked up her phone and started talking.
Sensing that Li Lele on the other end of the phone was absent-minded, Bai Qiuyue frowned suspiciously.
"Are you okay, Lele?"
"I'm fine." Li Lele replied, and after a brief chat with Bai Qiuyue, she hung up the phone.
While flying home, Li Lele began to think about things.
Although Bai Qiuyue is said to be a weapon witch, Captain Lei has already told her that Bai Qiuyue is registered with the Witch Countermeasures Bureau, so there is no threat.But what happened to the cardinal who had been by her side all the time? Didn't the two of them fight to the death before? Why did the relationship suddenly become so good?
Thinking of Linque and Bai Qiuyue's intimacy when they got along, she was slightly taken aback, and even blushed.
"No, Sister Yue, you are my brother's girlfriend!"
When she finished her daydreaming, she had already flown back to the window of her own house.

"It's here." She said softly.
When the angel witch came out of the corner and was about to throw her spear, she saw a woman in her early thirties squatting on the ground with her back to her.
In front of the woman was the corpse of a witch.
It turned out that the witch that the Angel Witch wanted to expel had already died long ago, and what she noticed was only the black air emanating from her broken body after death.

"Which witch did it to her?" Li You asked.
"It's not clear yet, but we will try our best to find out." Captain Lei replied.
A week later, the Angel Witch finally woke up.
"The person who attacked me is a monster. Its level is not low, and it is even far stronger than me." She said to Li You and Captain Lei beside her, "When I found her in the alley, it successfully hunted her. A witch."

Then he stroked his chin, thoughtfully.
"Follow me." He said to Li You.
He took Li You straight to Deep Hidden Well Prison, and Captain Lei led him to a cell where a monster was imprisoned.
That was the monster they captured before, Cheng Hua, who had invaded a human life.
"Captain Lei, what do you want me to do?" Cheng Hua raised his head and asked slowly.
Because he had been in the dark cell for a long time, the light coming from the corridor at the door made him feel extremely dazzling.
Looking at Cheng Hua in front of him, Captain Lei said calmly.
"Are there other high-level monsters in the city? Have they invaded human bodies like you and hibernated in human society as them?"

"It's useless, it has already changed its identity at this moment." Cheng Hua shook his head, "Compared with its companions, it seems more cautious, even if people around it don't notice it, it will still change it every few years. identity of."
After exchanging a few words with Cheng Hua, Captain Lei nodded slightly.
"Thank you very much for the information you provided." He then led Li You out of the cell.
A few hours later, Cheng Hua, who was sleeping soundly, was awakened by the soft opening of the door.
When he opened his eyes sleepily, he saw a man standing at the door. Judging from his uniform, he was obviously a guard of Deep Well Prison.
"Is there anything you can do? Now is not the time to inquire, is it?" Cheng Hua said.
The man didn't answer his words, but closed the door casually, sat down calmly, and looked at Cheng Hua calmly through the special glass of the cell.
A few seconds later, a look of astonishment flashed in Cheng Hua's eyes, who were originally puzzled.
"Are you a monster too?" He said in surprise.
The man nodded slowly.
At this moment, Cheng Hua only felt stunned. He didn't expect that there would be such a bold monster who chose to occupy the body of the guard of the Deep Well Prison, and then hibernated.
"You broke the rules." The man said calmly. "So we have to get rid of you."
At the same time as he was speaking, the power of the entire Deep Well was cut off, all the lights went out, and it fell into complete darkness.
With a scream, calm was restored in the cell.
One minute later, the lights came back on, and the man walked slowly in the corridor, while the passing colleagues were complaining about the sudden power outage in the prison, and did not notice him at all.

Cheng Hua's death was not accidental at all. After sharing the information with him and Li You last night, he died.
He probably died because of it.

All the facts were so clearly before his eyes, there were monsters lurking in the Witch Countermeasure Bureau, and even fought side by side with him as a comrade-in-arms, working together to expel the Witch and his own kind.
Their purpose is still unknown.
"I have to do something." Captain Lei said softly.
"We've already read the report you submitted urgently, Renekton." In the conference room on the top floor, the senior executives of the Witch Countermeasure Bureau looked at each other, and all looked at Captain Lei who was sitting silently.
After clearing his throat, a senior executive spoke first.
"I think this kind of thinking is too absurd. As the base camp for expelling witches and monsters, how could the Witch Countermeasures Bureau be infiltrated by monsters." He said, "We will conduct strict review procedures every year to ensure that no one will appear among us. Inner ghosts, no matter how smart the monsters are, they can't get away with it."
"Rekton has always been prudent in his work, and he will not submit this report to us rashly." Another senior executive said. "But having said that, we will conduct genetic tests on the body, flesh and hair of all our current staff members to see if the monsters inside can be caught."
"No way, haven't we already tested it before?" A high-level executive shook his head repeatedly, "After occupying the human body, the monster will completely fuse with the human flesh and blood genes, which cannot be detected by any scientific instruments, it is simply unbelievable. "
After discussing for a while, the senior management all looked at Captain Lei.
"Rekton, while handing in the report, I think you already have a solution? Let's talk about it."
Under their gaze, Captain Lei replied slowly.
"The current work of the Witch Countermeasures Bureau focuses on self-screening, screening out all suspicious targets as much as possible, and even if the results cannot be obtained, they must be imprisoned."
"This is your so-called method?" A high-level executive shook his head, "Impossible, the Witch Countermeasure Bureau shoulders the heavy responsibility of protecting the entire city, even if it is shut down for a day, it will leave the city empty, let alone carry out what you have done. Long-term action?"
"Sirs, now is the best time to screen." Captain Lei said in a deep voice, "We must get rid of this invisible time bomb as soon as possible, otherwise one day the Witch Countermeasure Bureau will be completely overthrown by it."
"You may be a little nervous." A high-level executive couldn't help but sighed, "Just the death of a third-level monster reminds you of so much? And you didn't show any information in your report. Basis."
"Let's trust Keton." The leading executive said.
Ultimately, the top brass agreed to a vote.
The seven senior officials voted in turn, and finally approved Captain Lei's proposal with a result of [-] to [-].
Captain Lei seemed a little surprised by this, he didn't expect that the senior management actually agreed with his idea.
He shook his head, dispelling the doubts in his heart.
"You officers are all veterans who established the Witch Countermeasures Bureau. I am too suspicious of their guesses."
After the meeting ended, the high-level executives left the meeting one after another, and the leading high-level staff looked at Captain Lei.
The two slowly walked side by side in the corridor.
"I have to admit that your idea is indeed a little bold." He said.
"Please forgive my recklessness." Captain Lei nodded slightly, "Also, thank you for being willing to stand by my side, teacher."
Yes, the leading executive is named Gao Yuan, who is Captain Lei's guide and mentor.For Captain Lei, he has given him incredible trust and cultivation, and Captain Lei has always been very grateful to him.
"If what you said is true, how embarrassing it would be." Gao Yuan sighed, "Most people in the Countermeasure Bureau are my students, and I often give speeches at their weddings, you say this."
Captain Lei nodded silently.
Under the impetus of Gao Yuan, the Witch Countermeasures Bureau quickly passed Captain Lei's proposal, suspended all external activities, and began a top-down screening.
This suddenly caused an uproar in the Witch Countermeasures Bureau.
After learning that it was Captain Lei who proposed this resolution, most people found it hard to understand and pointed the finger at him.
In the process, the top executives gradually began to shake their positions, because this is really a time-consuming and labor-intensive activity with little effect.
Only Gao Yuan, Captain Lei's teacher, stood firmly on his side and continued to push for the implementation of the resolution.
Unexpectedly, in the end, a few lurking monsters were actually screened out.
After realizing that they could no longer hide, they chose to act, but were quickly expelled by the magical girls present.
The senior executives of the Witch Countermeasures Bureau were shocked, and immediately traced their identities and continued to investigate.
Soon, everything came to light.
Cheng Hua, the monster imprisoned in the prison, was killed by their partnership, probably because Cheng Hua chose to betray the secret of his own kind.
"Thank you very much for your contribution, Keton." The high-level executives said sincerely at the meeting, "Our actions are meaningful, and the hidden ghosts have been caught and expelled by us."
Gao Yuan, who was sitting in the middle, smiled and nodded to Captain Lei expectantly, his eyes full of admiration.
"Then, everything is settled." A high-level executive breathed a sigh of relief, "The Witch Countermeasure Bureau can resume its activities."
Driven by Gao Yuan, the senior management applauded one after another.
Nodding repeatedly to the higher-ups, Captain Lei smiled.
When he turned to leave, he frowned again.
Is it really settled together?
The monster that killed Cheng Hua was expelled, and the large-scale screening of the Witch Countermeasures Bureau ended, and the matter seemed to be over satisfactorily.
When he was walking in the corridor, he stopped and suddenly remembered what Cheng Hua had said to him.
"I didn't dare to join their organization, because I had a faint feeling at the time. This might be a bottomless pit."
