I am a Taoist priest in the extraordinary world

Chapter 8 Interview
an examination?
Joseph's appearance at this time looked like a criminal who had successfully abducted and trafficked underage girls.

Dan Ding was full of doubts, and felt a little uneasy in his heart. After learning that this world possessed some extraordinary powers, he was a little sensitive to the word inspection.

"Relax, we are professionals, just conduct some necessary investigations on your situation after contact with forbidden substances, so as to confirm whether your physical and mental state is normal."

It's because I'm a professional, so I can't relax, okay?
Holding the idea of ​​being a bachelor who should come and can’t escape, Dante followed Joseph up the stairs, watching him reach out and tap on the tightly closed bronze door.

Boom!Boom!Boom!
The slow and rhythmic knock on the door echoed in the empty street, but there was no movement in the house, only the sound of the flapping wings of the disturbed sleepy birds came faintly from around the villa.

Boom!Boom!Boom!
Joseph raised his hand and repeated it again, but there was still no response.

"Officer Joseph, don't you have a key?"

"I was in a hurry to go out, so I forgot to bring it."

"."

The night wind blew up a few leaves, which swirled and slowly fell to the door.

Standing behind Dante, somehow felt a bit of embarrassment from Joseph's back.

Just when the atmosphere became more and more weird, there was finally the sound of "tat-tat-tat" trotting in the villa.

Dante and Joseph both breathed a sigh of relief, but luckily the door finally opened.

"Sorry, sorry, I accidentally fell asleep."

A crisp female voice came from behind the door. Dante tilted his head curiously from behind and found a girl with silver shawl hair and a dark blue dress standing at the door.

She has a delicate baby face, a pair of big water-like eyes with unfading tiredness, there are traces of pillows on her face, and there still seem to be a few drops of crystal saliva at the corners of her mouth.

Joseph was obviously not surprised, the poker face nodded slightly, turned sideways and introduced to Dante:

"This is Ivy, one of our team members."

Then he turned around and continued, "This is the survivor of this case, Dante Ashburn."

The silver-haired girl named Aiwei should have been in a hurry to open the door just now, and she didn't have time to notice Dante, so she looked carefully after hearing Joseph's introduction.

It doesn't matter if you look at it, the girl's baby face suddenly turns reddish.

Dante didn't have any reaction to this, after all, no matter from which point of view, the only thing worthy of praise left to him by the original body was this face.

What's more, as a clean little Taoist priest, he feels that no matter which world he is in, he must set up the banner of being pure and ascetic.

Femininity, that's absolutely unacceptable!
I despise my past "self" every day.

"Cough cough." Joseph coughed a few times, and said to Ivy: "You go and prepare first, I will take him to see the captain, and he will have an inspection later."

"Yes!"

Hearing the task order, Ivy immediately became serious. She moved away and couldn't help but glance at the young man in front of her.

It's so beautiful, I really want to draw it
Dante followed Joseph into the villa, and nodded slightly when passing by Ivy, showing a polite smile.

The first floor of the villa is an open-plan kitchen and living room. The huge crystal chandelier is not lit. All the furniture in the room has an obvious baroque style. There is a one-meter-square fireplace on the living room wall, and the firewood inside is exactly There was a crackling roasting sound.

Even though steam heating pipes have come out now, for some rich people, they are still used to using ancient things like fireplaces.

After all, those huge black pipes will destroy the beauty of the building itself.

When Dante passed by the living room, he noticed that there was a blanket on the sofa that hadn’t been packed in time, and there was a drawing board standing on the ground next to it. A few lines were simply sketched on the canvas, and the miscellaneous paint under his feet showed that this is a pair of An oil painting that has not yet been created.

Presumably this should be the place where Ivy rested just now.

Could she be a painter?thought Dante.

With the nervousness of entering an unfamiliar environment in his heart, he followed Joseph to the second floor, and stood in front of a leather-wrapped door.

"Come in, the captain is waiting for you inside."

Joseph turned his head and showed a mysterious smile, and gently opened the door.

Dante adjusted his mood slightly, nodded, and walked in with some unknown expectation.

"See you again so soon, Mr. Dante."

Leon was sitting behind a huge desk, holding a book with a black cover in his hand, and said without raising his head.

"Please sit down for a while, let me read this paragraph."

Can the opening remarks of your third action team not be so similar. Dante complained from the bottom of his heart.

With an understanding smile on his face, he walked to the chair in front of the desk and sat down, folded his hands in front of him, and waited quietly.

After about 10 minutes, Leon finally raised his head and shifted his gaze from the book to him.

"I'm sorry, I really can't bear to stop after seeing the wonderful things."

"Understandable."

Dante smiled, took a quick glance, and found that the name on the cover of the book was "Journey to the Deep Sea", a very small travel diary.

"Richard Hamilton's book. It is said that he was only 19 years old when he wrote this book."

The memories in my mind quickly surfaced, "I" used to have a lot of knowledge in other aspects except not doing business.

Leon raised his eyebrows when he heard this, obviously a little surprised.

"Mr. Dante deserves to be a top student in Yeleton, and he has covered a wide range of subjects."

"You're welcome."

Leon chuckled and didn't continue the topic. He closed the book in his hand and placed it on the table, crossed his fingers against his chin, and said:
"Joseph should have explained some basic common sense to you, so I won't go into details."

"Next, I'm going to ask you a few questions, and I hope you will answer them seriously."

"Because, to a large extent, this will determine your future fate."

At this time, Leon's demeanor has changed a lot. He no longer looks like a polite but distant aristocratic gentleman, but more like a department head with a lot of power.

It was like an interview. Dante thought so.

He unconsciously sat up straight and nodded without speaking.

"The first question, describe what you felt in the room before."

kindness?
What a weird question.

Dante thought of many possible questions, but never expected this one.

Fortunately, he was already mentally prepared, thought for a while, and replied vaguely:

"A very wonderful feeling, unprecedented, very mysterious, and very curious."

Well. This should not count as lying.

"What was going through your mind at the time?"

"I'm thinking about what to do in the future."

Leon didn't rush to ask again, but changed his posture, and tapped the table with his slender fingers, as if he was thinking and confirming.

"After that? Do you have an answer to the question you're considering?"

Dante pondered for a moment, feeling that he should tell the truth on this issue.

"Yes, my hunch tells me that contacting you is the most correct choice."
