Mystery: Good Witch

Chapter 78

"Ever since the Tingen City team discovered this population transaction involving the entire eastern part of the kingdom, the Nighthawks have been tracking down the extraordinary forces behind it. Not only the 'Witch Sect' was involved, but the 'Aurora Society' even appeared ' figure."

At this time, the "Silver Bullet Detective Agency" put up a closed sign, the doors and windows were closed, and the curtains were tightly covered to prevent any sound or light from leaking.

In the hall on the first floor, except for the Nighthawks who were on duty at the Chanis Gate, everyone gathered, either sitting or standing, listening carefully to the mission explanation by Clement, the captain of Enmat Port.

Most of them are familiar to Angel in the past few days, and there are two people she has never seen before. They should be members of the local team who have been busy with "monitoring targets" recently.

Daly Simone made up for the sleep during the day, and she was in high spirits at this time. She took advantage of her gender privilege to occupy the largest sofa, and invited Angel to sit down together.

Rupert Norman finally figured out his pipe, which was now quivering slightly in his mouth.He didn't light the pipe, but his eyes wandered, scanning the others.

"Sleepless" Moreau of Pulitzer Harbor and "Midnight Poet" Brandon Poirot stood behind Rupert together, with serious expressions and fixed eyes.

The two local nighthawks sat and stood one by one, slightly separated from the others, all looking at their captain.

The captain of the Port of Enmat team, "Nightmare" Clement was sitting on a high-backed chair. On the low table in front of him was a map of the city. There were three locations circled in red on it, which were located in the port area. , West District and Durang District.

They are all densely populated and easily accessible fringe areas.

"After investigation, we locked three areas, Warehouse No. 16 in the port area, the sugar factory on Cowell Street in the West End, and the Yann Clinic on Fourth Avenue in Durham."

As the place names were read out one by one, Clement tapped on the three red circles on the map one by one.

"The Yaen Clinic is responsible for inspecting people who have been abducted or kidnapped. The sugar factory will be transferred in the urban area. Finally, these 'goods' will board the ship in the port area and go to the location designated by the buyer. Only this year, this The channel has already handled thousands of innocent people, going to the plantations in the islands of the Mad Sea, the mines deep in the Southern Continent, and even the sacrificial ceremonies of some heretics."

"A large number of believers of the Evernight Goddess have been victimized!"

All the Nighthawks present subconsciously straightened up, staring at them like goddesses.

Seeing that everyone's emotions had been mobilized, Clement smiled in satisfaction, paused for a moment, and then continued:

"Originally, this operation should be carried out by the church's elite team, the 'Red Gloves'. Well, some of you may have heard of them, or even seen them. If they are involved, the operation must be foolproof."

"It's a pity that the 'Red Gloves' have other missions, and they are temporarily unable to spare manpower to come to support them. That's why everyone gathered here."

This is the second time Angel has heard the name "Red Gloves".

It is said that this is a unit selected from within the Nighthawks, at least the elite Extraordinary of Sequence 7. It is independent of the Nighthawks teams in various places, watching all the parishes vigilantly like a hound, responding to calls for help at any time, and supporting teams in various regions , or arrest those Extraordinary criminals who are extremely vicious but like to commit crimes across regions.

It's a pity that I only heard his voice but never saw him, and it seems that I have no chance to see these "red gloves" this time.

"Captain Clement," Rupert Norman, who was standing behind Angel, raised his hand holding the pipe, indicating that he had doubts, "It was not originally scheduled to start the capture operation after the Backlund team joined us tomorrow." Why? Why earlier? "

"That's exactly what I'm going to say next," Clement nodded towards Rupert, "According to intelligence, every Monday the sugar factory will send the 'goods' to the warehouse in the port area, and smuggle them out of Enma at night." But unfortunately, the three target strongholds have moved this afternoon. I tried to invade the dreams of a few ordinary people, and learned that they will probably ship the "cargo" they are currently on hand tomorrow morning. .”

"Advance? Has the news leaked out?"

Moreau of the Pritz Harbor team said with a sullen face, making his original brown skin appear even darker.

"probably not."

Clement shook his head, his falcon-like gaze swept across everyone's faces one by one, and stayed on Angel for a while.

"Everyone here is the backbone of the Nighthawk squads from various dioceses. They have been tested for a long time. I believe that everyone will not leak the secrets. Moreover, before today, most people don't know the whole picture of the mission, and there is nothing they can do if they want to leak the secrets."

"Could it be... divination?"

Daly said something abruptly.

Hearing this familiar word, the faces of everyone in the hall changed.

This is the word that the official Extraordinary least wants to hear, even if they themselves often rely on the results of divination to plan their actions.

"It's very possible, maybe some passive divination rituals, knowing in advance that our actions will 'cause danger' to them, issued an early warning, or someone's whim divination exposed our deployment."

Clement rubbed his fingers over the map, echoing Daly's speech.

"In any case, it is very likely that the other party will find out about our actions, or at least become alert. If it is delayed until tomorrow night or even the day after tomorrow, when everyone smashes the gates of the port warehouses and sugar factories, they may only see empty stronghold."

"Then set off as soon as possible and arrest them. You should have a plan."

Brendan Poirot, the "Midnight Poet" from Pulitzer Harbor like Morrow, proposed, his face full of eagerness and his look of action.

Including Angel, others also nodded in agreement.

Everyone traveled long distances to Enmat Port, not to smell the escape of these human-trafficking cultists. Since the other party is planning to evacuate early, then act in advance and get ahead of them!

Seemingly satisfied with everyone's reactions, Clement's stern expression also showed a hint of a smile. He pushed the map forward so that others could see it more clearly.

"As the stronghold of the Nighthawks, the 'Silver Bullet' has a preliminary function against divination, which is why we can hold meetings here with peace of mind. But once we leave here, we have to assume that our whereabouts will be monitored by the other party, so we must act accordingly. Be quick, don’t give the other party time to react.”

He pointed to the farthest point on the map from the shoreline, the Yan Clinic in Durang District.

"This clinic is controlled by a Beyonder from the 'Aurora Order', a Sequence 8 of the 'Secret Prayer' pathway, 'Listener'."

Angel has seen the records of this path in the internal information of the Nighthawks. The church only has the name of the low-level potion and some extraordinary abilities of the "Secret Practitioner". They have some unique and powerful abilities, but as a price, they are extremely easy to lose control, and once they cannot be promoted within a few years, they will end up losing control or dying.

They either get promoted or die, and rarely stay in this sequence for long.

The other nighthawks seemed to have read the information well, and did not question Clement's words.

"Moreau and Poirot, you two go to the second floor of the hotel opposite the Yarn Clinic. In Room 204, one of our team members is monitoring the clinic. After meeting him, go directly into the clinic to capture or kill the 'Aurora Order' The 'listener', he has two subordinates, they are not Extraordinary, but they don't need to keep their hands deliberately, and take all the means you think are necessary."

"receive."

"no problem."

The two members of the Pritz Harbor team answered loudly, and Brandon Poirot was even more excited, as if he had been looking forward to it for a long time.

"Daly, you lead the team, Marlowe and Cliff follow you, take the '3-0431' Frozen Eye, and work with the monitors of the sugar factory in the West End to solve the guards of the factory and rescue the people they hid there. slave."

"The factory has eight guards with guns, and one Extraordinary is in charge. He is a Sequence 8 of the hunter path, a 'Provocateur', who is good at using traps, and will interfere with the opponent with words in battle. You can directly solve him with the sealed item , other people control the guards and hand them over to the police. Be careful that the guards jump over the wall to attack ordinary people, and they can use lethal means if necessary."

It turns out that there really is a potion called "Provocateur"... and the behavior of that guy Dominique is also worthy.

Angel labeled Dominic, who sold Extraordinary characteristics today, as a "provocateur" in his mind.

Daly nodded, got up and walked into a door behind the hall, she should go to "Chanis Gate" to get the sealed item.

The other two Nighthawks called by the captain were exactly two people Angel had never seen before. One was tall and the other was low. They were both men, and there was no trace of tension on their calm faces.

"The last is the warehouse in the port area. I tried several times to enter it with my extraordinary ability, but a strange force inside stopped me. I 'asked' ordinary workers and learned that there is a staircase leading to the underground in the warehouse. Access to underground areas is prohibited."

"In the warehouse, apart from some workers who know the inside story, there is only one mysterious person who is suspected to be an Extraordinary. I was discovered by him the first time I used my nightmare ability. The other party is probably the same as me, also a Sequence 7, or even slightly stronger. .”

Slightly stronger, that is Sequence 6?

Angel looked at the people on the field who hadn't been assigned tasks. Apart from himself and Clement, there was only another "Midnight Poet" Rupert Norman left.

Is it necessary for the three of them to solve the Extraordinary who may be Sequence 6?

As if answering Angel's guess, Clement continued: "There are no workers in Warehouse 16 at night, but that Extraordinary has never left the gate of the warehouse, and he must be there at night, by me, Rupert Norman and Angel Granger to deal with him."

"I have already applied for permission to use '2-032', the Hand of Proclamation. Our group will carry sealed items to deal with this Beyonder with an unknown sequence."
