It's simply very bad, and it may not be long before Bayland will become a sacrifice to the gods outside the world.

George couldn't confirm the specific position of the mysterious store manager who called himself "Shen Yi", but felt it necessary to enlist his help.

Shen Yi didn't answer, but said: "Let's talk about it later, what do you want, I'll go and prepare it."

George replied, "I'm still a latte."

Su Ling quietly touched the menu on the table and scanned it around.

"Mousse cake, chicken sandwich, tiramisu, whipped cream cake, freshly baked egg tart, donuts, macarons...all for two."

Ah this.

Shen Yi was stunned for a moment, he had never seen anyone who really wanted to eat all he could in a coffee shop, so he asked after a while: "What do you drink with coffee?"

Su Ling scanned the list again. She only drank instant coffee.

"I do not understand......"

"In this case, let me prepare it for you, and I promise to satisfy you."

Shen Yi nodded with a smile, turned around and went to the bar to prepare coffee and food.

Some time ago, the coffee shop has been hovering between losing money and maintaining capital, and today it is finally able to make money.

George immediately asked: "Aren't you afraid of wasting so much after ordering so much? Have you finished eating?"

Su Ling explained solemnly: "I can't finish eating and pack."

George continued: "Ordering so much food in a coffee shop is neither very filling nor expensive."

"It doesn't matter, it's your treat anyway."

"..."

There was a smile on Su Ling's cold face: "You are an A-level investigator, with an annual salary of more than [-]% of the nationals. You will be allocated housing by yourself, and your immediate family members will be free of medical, education and travel expenses. I can receive the funds for the operation, and the money for coming here today can always be reimbursed with the mission funds, right? After all, we are here to find that man."

Su Ling was referring to the owner of the coffee shop, of course.

George nodded: "Yes, investigators are paid very well, but there are not many A-level investigators who can successfully retire, but you are also a B-level investigator, why do you look like a poor ghost?"

Su Ling sighed and said, "Because I have to spend money in many places."

As far as I know, your reason is more psychological... George thought silently, but didn't say it out loud.

He probably guessed why Su Ling was poor, which was why he was willing to suffer and treat guests.

George was very sick, he was addicted to cigarettes, but this is a coffee shop, and you can't smoke in Nolan without a smoking area.

He wants to die.

George took out a cigarette and held it in his mouth without lighting it, then slumped on the sofa, closing his eyes and resting his mind.

Su Ling was shocked. It turns out that there are still people who can "pretend that they are smoking".

After Shen Yi came to the bar, he started to make pure hand-made coffee.

What are these two people trying to do here?For yesterday's commission?Probably.

After a while, Shen Yi first brought a cup of coffee to Su Ling with a smile.

"This cup is specially made for beautiful ladies."

Su Ling stood up and took the coffee cup, feeling a burst of warmth and a strong aroma.

The owner of the coffee shop is quite approachable...much better than expected.

However, Su Ling heard from his father that many otherworldly things only look friendly, but sometimes they can become very scary.

After a while, Shen Yi served coffee and snacks one by one from the bar.

Su Ling immediately picked up the mousse cake and ate it, while George glanced at it, then turned to look at Shen Yi who was at the side.

"About last night's entrustment, I don't know if you have any idea, as if you know that Berland's situation is very bad now."

"We don't have much time left."

Bayland's form is very bad, could it be that something major has happened, Shen Yi said calmly: "Oh, I don't know how much you know?"

George took down the cigarette dangling from his mouth, his face full of bitterness: "We don't know much, we only know that there is a sect that wants to sacrifice the entire Bayland to the god of the world, and begging him to come to the world. It's something only lunatics would do, but yes, if it weren't for lunatics, they wouldn't be cults."

His expression gradually became serious, and he said: "If something happens, no one is sure what the God of the World will do... But for the humans living in this city, it will definitely not have a good result. "

Even if the god of the world is not malicious at all, how can ordinary people bear his own existence? As for the worst result, George slowly closed his eyes.

He couldn't imagine it.

Shen Yi listened silently, whether it was religious group, sacrificial offerings, gods outside the world, or descending, these words touched him a lot.

I always feel that I have to have something to do with myself again... If I am the one who summoned me in the end, how do the people of this sect want to dedicate the entire city?

If the sacrifice scene is very big, his identity...may be exposed in front of the whole world.

Find a way to stop it.

Is the order he's talking about the Order of the Embers of Chaos?

Aina said last night that she wanted to hold a new sacrifice, but it didn't look like it at all. The sacrifices and layout of the Chaos Ember Cult were not enough.

Then, it is likely to be other forces.

Shen Yi still remembered the message Aina left, that the Chaos Ember Order was being hunted down by an organization called "Words of Tranquility".

He thought for a while, and said, "Words of silence?"

George was taken aback for a moment, he obviously hadn't mentioned the quiet words... This man really knows everything.

He nodded and said in a low tone: "It is very likely that it is the Quiet Words. They attacked the investigators of the Anti-Magical Bureau last night, and we suffered heavy losses... Suddenly doing such a thing in Bayland, even if Even lunatics should have a purpose, but the Anti-Magical Bureau has not yet clarified what their purpose is."

"If their purpose is not to sacrifice the city... Even if we are not reconciled, we can only put the idea of ​​​​handling the Word of Silence behind."

Shen Yi nodded, there were heavy casualties... Alas, that's right, those people are cult members, it's normal to kill people.

That being the case, the Whisper of Tranquility is going to war with the Chaos Embers Order and the Anti-Magical Bureau at the same time, either crazy or very strong, or both.

Seeing Shen Yi falling silent, George thought for a while, then took out a pure black box from his black windbreaker, and put it on the table.

"Please accept this, you said last night that I owe you a favor, but I think this thing can offset the debt."

George really didn't want to owe such a special person a favor, but wanted to pay something practical to get rid of the "debt".

Shen Yi didn't know what George gave him, but he knew that once he accepted it, it would be equivalent to agreeing to the other party - he would definitely find the person in the photo.

However, he did not want to betray Aina no matter what.

But if you collect things and don't do anything, the favorability between yourself and George will drop to freezing point.

Shen Yi said silently: "You keep it for now."

Refused.

George frowned deeply, and put the black box away again: "I understand, it's not convenient for you to help me because of your position, right?"

Shen Yi nodded.

"Ah."

George took a sip of coffee, not afraid of the high temperature, "Since this is the case, I can understand that human beings have human positions, and you have your own position."

Shen Yi was slightly taken aback, ah, did this guy never treat me as a human being?

He was a little confused, but he still shook his head and said, "However, I can assure you of one thing, that is, the girl in your photo is by no means a bad person."

"Really?" Not a bad guy?George was taken aback for a moment.

He then thought about whether this was a hint. Could it be that the power to sacrifice the entire city and summon the gods outside the world was not the Embers of Chaos Cult, but the Quiet Words Cult?

"Can you go into more detail?"

Shen Yi smiled, he was deliberately hinting at the other party, the purpose was to make George take his attention away from Aina.

After he came to the bar, he left a shadow behind and said, "I know that there is a conflict between Ember of Chaos and the Word of Silence, a very intense conflict, and this information is given to you for free."

George narrowed his eyes, they had a big conflict?This is a common thing, after all, each sect sees the other as heresy.

As free information, that's pretty good...Among the clues and information collected by investigators, as long as there are a few that are useful.

He got up and bowed, "I see, thank you very much for the information you provided."

George turned to look at the girl beside him, "Come on, we can go."

Su Ling, who was drinking coffee, was stunned, looked at the food that he hadn't eaten for a while, and said, "Pack it up, I haven't finished eating yet."

Shen Yi looked helpless, and explained bluntly: "Our coffee shop really doesn't have a packing box..."

Su Ling was silent for a while, and continued to stuff the food into his mouth.

George finally couldn't help complaining: "You are obviously beautiful, but it's a pity that you have a mouth that can speak and eat."

Shen Yi smiled and said nothing, waiting for George to finish paying.

He did have a strange feeling, this girl who had been eating and drinking was staring at him all the time, like a beast that was hurt and going crazy.

"I'm ready!"

After a while, Su Ling finally had enough.

"Then, see you next time."

George nodded slightly, held up the black umbrella, and he and the pouting Su Ling left the coffee shop contentedly.

"..." Shen Yi watched the two leave in the coffee shop.

While clearing the table, he said to himself: "I'm still not sure which sect wants to sacrifice the city. If Aina comes, you can ask her."

After Shen Yi cleaned up everything, he looked at the sky outside.

The torrential rain showed no signs of stopping, but it was only noon now, so I could go out for a while.

After a while, Shen Yi, who was wearing a raincoat, picked up the shadow mask and began to change his figure, turning into an ordinary college student again.

He left the cafe.

Shen Yi has two things to do, one is to investigate Byron's villa, it is best to get information about Byron, and the other is to go to the library of Berland Imperial College to find information about the Word of Silence.

He decided to do the second thing first.

"Whisper of silence, they will probably call me... yet another trouble."
