Volume 1: Raging Waves City Chapter 49: Peace
The next day, Luke came to the office yawning. Before he sat down, the heads of various departments of the Secret Service rushed in.
"Inspector! The elf Clear Sky broke into Oulu College last night and stole the Book of Disaster."
"Inspector! The City Hall has issued a bounty for the Elf Clear Sky... Anyone who provides clues can receive a reward ranging from a minimum of 1,000 Reichsmarks to a maximum of 100,000 Reichsmarks.
Anyone who can recover the Book of Disaster will receive a bounty of 2 million Reichsmarks."
"Detective! Sheriff Holt wants to see you."
"Inspector! Councillor Virgil, who is in charge of the security of Raging Wave City, invites you to attend the city security meeting at 2pm in the City Hall.
The topic is that the security departments of various districts will cooperate to capture the elf Qingkong, recover the stolen Book of Disaster, the heart of the red dragon Neilcolon, and the wand of Lord Wilred, the dean of Oulu College.
Since the first place where the clear sky appears is the Cape, you will be questioned at the meeting."
"Inspector! The Axe Party..."
Luke stopped his subordinates from talking at once: "Black Mamba, stay! Everyone else, go out first, summarize your affairs with Kylena, and then let Kylena report to me."
"Yes, Inspector!"
Everyone in the room left, leaving only Shelley.
Compared with yesterday's dejected look, Shelley is in high spirits today.
"Inspector, the Axe Madmen fought brilliantly last night. More than 2,000 reinforcements and powerful berserker potions stunned the attacking enemy.
Lambert even led his men to attack and killed their way to the dock.
Now it's the turn of those who bullied us to tremble. As long as the powerful rage potion arrives tonight, it will be time for us to counterattack."
The situation on the Axe Mad side was within Luke's expectations.
Although the various forces attacking the Mad Axe Party were numerous and powerful, they were scattered. The Public Security Bureau could support them, but they did not dare to stand up and organize them.
However, he had gathered the people under the Secret Intelligence Bureau to establish the Yanyang Smuggling Group. The power of hitting people with his fingers clenched into a fist was different, not to mention the powerful violence potion.
Another important factor is... Qingkong attacked Oulu College last night, drawing all the attention of the City Hall away from the Cape District, so naturally there was no way for him to make a move secretly.
Holt from the Cape District Security Department wanted to meet, probably because he saw the situation was not good and wanted to make peace.
Luke said to Shelley: "Holt wanted to see me...did he say what he wanted to see me for?"
"The messenger didn't say anything. Inspector, did the Sheriff's Department see that the situation was suddenly unfavorable to them and wanted to mediate?"
“That’s partly why.”
Shelley asked, "How are you going to respond to Holt? The Mad Axe Party is preparing to retaliate against all those who participated in the attack on the Mad Axe Party tonight."
Luke thought about it for a moment.
"Send someone to the Sheriff's Office and tell Chief Holt that I'm going to meet him on the Lucky Princess at Cape Harbor Pier.
Let Pisco take people to the boat to make preparations first.
Then you go to the Mad Axe headquarters and tell them... that they will retaliate immediately when I meet with Holt. Be quick, accurate, and ruthless, and finish it before noon."
Hearing the inspector actually asking for the revenge action to be brought forward, Shelley couldn't help but ask: "Inspector, the Public Security Bureau has issued a warning not to cause trouble during the day. If we start the war in the daytime, will you be in danger?"
“Shouldn’t we ask Pisco to prepare first?
Moreover, such a big incident happened in Nutao City, the Government Affairs Office must want to end things here as soon as possible so that we can work on capturing the elf Qingkong.
The City Hall will hold a security meeting this afternoon. I think Holt came to me because he was under pressure and wanted to redistribute the dock before noon. You don't have to come back after you take your men to the Axe Madmen. Help them make things worse. The better you fight, the easier it will be for me."
When Shelley heard that he could fight, his fighting cells were activated.
But she still asked with a little concern: "Didn't you and Holt agree that our Secret Service and the Public Security Bureau would not get involved in this matter?"
"Stupid?" Luke scolded, " How can the current situation be compared to the situation two days ago? Holt is the one who wants this incident to end as soon as possible! The City Government Office wants to concentrate its forces to capture the elf Qingkong. Does Holt have the guts to go to war with our Secret Service?
And you won't make an excuse?
The Secret Intelligence Bureau is investigating a case to capture the elf Qingkong and recover the stolen 'Heart of the Red Dragon Neil Colon'. This is a case entrusted to us by the Government Affairs Office.
I'll take care of Holt, so you can work with confidence."
Handle the case!
This major is suitable.
Feel free and bold...it makes Shelley feel like she has let go of her hands and feet.
"Please rest assured, Inspector. I promise to finish the work before noon!"
"Go! Let Kylena in."
"Yes, Inspector."
Shelley stood up, saluted Luke, and strode away.
Kylena soon came in with a stack of documents, and she put them on the desk first.
Then he said, "Inspector, a serious invasion occurred at Oulu College last night. The elf Qingkong, who once killed more than a hundred people in one night in our Cape District, suddenly entered Oulu College last night..."
Kylena told Luke what happened last night in an orderly manner.
As a party involved, Luke listened very carefully even though he knew the details of the incident.
After Kaileena finished speaking, Luke asked, "Any clues about the Fairy Clear Sky?"
"Inspector, no. The whereabouts of the elf Qingkong are very strange. According to common sense, she hides in the city to eat and rest... and as an elf, she has obvious appearance characteristics. As long as she moves, she will always reveal something that can be tracked.
But there were almost no clues.
Several important districts of the city are now being cleared of all elves.
The City Government Office held a meeting in the afternoon, preparing to coordinate all the city’s security forces to conduct a comprehensive inspection of Nutao City.
The personnel in our Cape District are the most complex, and should be the focus of this major investigation."
Luke nodded.
This was pretty much what he expected.
The reason why Holt from the Sheriff's Department was so anxious to see me was because he was under pressure from above.
Well, if he is under pressure, create more pressure on him.
"Yes, I understand. The elf Qingkong's theft of the Book of Disaster has endangered the security of the empire. As the Secret Intelligence Agency, we have the obligation to hunt down the elf Qingkong.
You write a search plan for me based on the situation in the Cape area."
"Yes, Inspector! If there's nothing else, I'll go to work."
Luke stood up and said to Kylena, “There’s no rush for the search plan. Come with me to the Lucky Princess to meet Director Holt.”
"Yes, Inspector!"
