Wizard: Gou adds a little bit of hunting in the era of steam

Chapter 19 Roget’s Story
Wei En got up and walked to the window to look out. If he didn't find some beautiful things to divert his attention, he was afraid that he would be immersed in those misfortunes.

"It turns out that the distance is so close..."

The Dumitru block is not far from the center of the city-state. From his office, he can clearly see the Krims Cathedral not far away.

It can be seen that many people wearing the costumes of believers of the Dawn Church walked towards the church.Everyone has a smile on their face, bright and beautiful.

In the corner of the block not far away, more people gathered in twos and threes.

Gentlemen in formal suits walked side by side with ladies in gorgeous dresses, chatting and laughing as they walked into various stores.

Wei En's five senses have been enhanced, and he can still vaguely hear the things they are discussing, including clothing, food, and city-state laws...

It's more about the holy sacrifice that came down from the Dawn Church yesterday, and that lucky holy family member.

"I finally understand why so many people become believers in the Church of Dawn."

In such a dangerous world, extraordinary people have a certain ability to protect themselves and have the ability to make choices.

But for these ordinary people, especially those who are poor and down, if they have no sustenance in their hearts, it may be difficult for them to persevere.

To some extent, whether it is the Church of Dawn, the Church of Storms, or other churches, they are the hope for these people to survive.

Even if these churches may not necessarily bring them good luck...

"Hey, Wayne, have you arrived yet?"

Hearing the sound, Wayne turned around and glanced at the clock - eleven o'clock!

"I just arrived not long ago."

"I should have told you that the working hours of the Secret Investigation Department are eleven o'clock, right?"

Wayne nodded calmly, "Yes."

Having just experienced a miserable baptism, he really didn't want to waste time arguing about whether he had mentioned working hours.

"That's good."

Lacey put down the suitcase in his hand, looked at him with a smile and said, "Wayne, I have to say that this suit suits you very well."

"Thank you."

"How is it? Have you read the files for you?"

When Wei En saw her placing her eyes on the files on the table, he smiled and said, "I've seen it. The captain's performance in these cases is very admirable."

"Yes, is it? I'm not as good as you said, hahaha..."

Ok?
Did I mention the word excellent?
And even if you hear praise, you don't have to laugh so exaggeratedly... It seems that he should get used to it.

In fact, he is lucky to have a colleague who is straightforward and unpretentious.

Wei En secretly lamented how easy the captain was to get along with, while tidying up the files and putting them on her desk.

"I have seen the photos in the cabinet over there, are they all my colleagues?"

"That, yes."

Lacey put away the file and didn't look back. He casually replied, "Everyone is here except for one old guy who has retired."

"That's it."

"Do you think they all look reliable?"

"No,"

Wei En said it, but felt it was inappropriate, and continued: "No, I mean they are indeed reliable. I was just surprised that Rogert looked so handsome when he smiled, but yesterday he was so..."

"Cold?" Lacey added.

"almost……"

Lacey looked up at him, and said seriously: "You don't have to feel embarrassed because you said it so bluntly. The reason why Roger became like this is because he asked for it."

Is there something wrong here?

Wei En didn't speak, but waited for her next words.

"In fact, he's leaving today."

"Ok?"

"His spirit is polluted, here," Lacey pointed to his head, "the brain is broken!"

Wei En looked at her in surprise, did he even know? !
He was still debating whether to share this information last night, but he didn't expect it to be an open secret.

"He, how did Roger get mentally polluted?"

"That's why he doesn't deserve sympathy," Lacey said with a complicated expression, both helpless and angry. "He fell in love with a 'degenerate'."

Wei En opened his mouth wide, "Fallen? In love?"

He thought he would hear an inspirational story about pursuing power and selling his soul, but he didn't expect this to be a love tragedy?

"I can tell you about this, but you have to promise, no, you have to swear not to tell anyone outside the investigation department."

Wei En nodded quickly, "Yeah, I swear!"

No matter which world you are in, you can't resist eating melons.

"Hey," Lacey sighed, "At the same time, I hope you won't become like him. To be honest, this is really a tragedy..."

"Rodgett is only 23 years old this year, and it has only been three years since he came to investigate a film. I still remember how he was when he first came here. He was handsome and good at spear skills..."

With her narration, Wei En finally understood the reason why Rogerette became like this.

It turned out that in the first two years, Rogert was the captain's partner, and the two worked together with the retired old Jack.

But in the third year, that is, last year, because Rogert wanted to surpass Lacey in grades, he began to investigate the case alone.

In an accidental case, he met a young girl.

According to Lacey, the girl was so average that she even compared herself to herself.

It is said that the girl is of average build, with a round face and a few freckles, and is two years older than Rogert...

Wayne looked at the two hanging clocks in front of her and agreed. It is indeed difficult for a woman to be as tall as Lacey.

But it was such an ordinary girl who attracted Roget's attention, or to be precise, his admiration.

Every day after get off work, he would take a long detour to create an encounter with that girl.I will also bring some gadgets as gifts, and sometimes some delicacies.

It didn't take long before the two fell in love and began to formally communicate.

Of course, Lacey's exact words were: "These are all the deceptions of that degenerate, who deceived an upright, brave and promising investigator!"

Although her tone of voice was filled with resentment, Wayne could still hear her sorrow for Rogeret's spiritual pollution.

At the beginning, the relationship between the two was full of joy, happiness and beauty.

The only fly in the ointment is that the girl's family does not approve of their love, and even obstructs it in every possible way.

When Wei En expressed his incomprehension, Lacey replied lightly: "Usually, ordinary people have this impression of investigators. Facing misfortune, it brings ominousness."

I don't know how she felt when she said this, but Wei En was greatly shocked.

It turns out that from the perspective of ordinary people, this is what the investigator looks like!
Speaking of Rogerett... after that, neither of them gave up.

Especially Luo Jiete, who fell in love, desperately completed the task of the secret investigation department, hoping to impress the girl's family with his promotion.

but……

One night, Rodgett missed her so much that he ventured to visit the girl's place.

He left in a hurry, carrying only an ordinary lantern sold by the Dawn Church.

It was on that day that Rogert saw a terrible scene.

That ordinary-looking girl with a gentle personality turned into a devil in the night when he spied on her.

Everyone in the family, including the parents, and the younger sister who was under two years old were brutally killed.

"Roget, look...no one will stop us anymore."
