Chapter 113 Gregory's Troubles

After Millie Tang said this, not only Liu Yonglu, but also Lin Brown and DeLorean noticed something was wrong.

They had been talking and communicating with Liu Yonglu normally since he got down from the bird, but neither of them felt that there was anything wrong with him wearing the white mask, as if he was supposed to wear it.

So, why could Millie Tang see it? It had nothing to do with mystical knowledge, but she and Liu Yonglu had been together for a long time recently, and Liu Yonglu had a problem when he spoke, that is, everything he said had to be photogenic.

For example, if he wants to make you happy, his face will show joy. If he wants to pretend to be sad, his face will be gloomy as if he has suffered a great injustice.

So at this moment, Millie Tang suddenly felt uncomfortable in her heart. Liu Yonglu's tone of voice was the same as usual, but because the expression on his face was gone, Millie Tang felt like something was missing.

"Mr. Richie, don't move. I'll try to take it off for you."

Millie Tang first found a small notebook to write down this doubt, as she was afraid that the mask had the ability to change people's memories. After putting the notebook away, she sprinkled some magic potion around Liu Yonglu, took out a pair of suede gloves from her bosom and put them on. After making all the preparations, she tiptoed and carefully took off the mask from Liu Yonglu's face.

"Do you feel any discomfort?"

"Yes, how can I describe it to you? It's like having worn dentures for more than ten years and suddenly having to take them off. It's uncomfortable."

Liu Yonglu rubbed his face with his hands, feeling empty inside. He couldn't control his hands and always wanted to reach out to take the mask in Millie Tang's hand.

"Leave this here for now. I'll study it when I get it back to headquarters."

Mili Tang took another look at the two jars in Liu Yonglu's hand, and thinking of what he had done to Mud Ball before, she reached out and snatched the two jars.

"Mr. Richie, let me keep this and this too. I'll return them to you after I'm sure there's no problem!"

"Fine……"

Liu Yonglu was a little scared at this moment, so he turned his face away and didn't dare to look at the mask.

The four people walked north and found the carriage that DeLorean had hidden in advance. There was a city called Novidon to the north of Calder County. The Investigation Department had relatively strong control over the city. The four people decided to stay there first and agreed to take the steam train back to New Newland together a few days later.

However, the next morning, both groups received calls from the department.

Gregory's operator informed DeLorean that there was an emergency and that she and Lin Brown needed to come back to discuss it.

Oliver told Liu Yonglu that General Norman was in a meeting, and asked him to rest before returning to New New Lent. However, it would be best for him to go to the private school in the suburbs first after returning, as Xiaohu's teacher wanted to invite parents...

The two teams had no choice but to say goodbye and make an appointment to meet again in New Newland.

……

In a small meeting room in the Special Incident Investigation Department of New Newland, four people were sitting at a round table.

The first one was Chief Norman. There was a cup of freshly brewed coffee on his desk. Chief Norman drank it while reading the report in his hand. He looked relaxed and contented. Although the situation in the report was serious, a smug smile would appear on his face from time to time.

Just now, Oliver briefly informed me of Liu Yonglu's situation. The mission was successfully completed, the mass ceremony failed, and he and Milly Tang were also evacuated successfully. They will return to New New Lent by steam train soon.

Every time General Norman wanted to laugh out loud unconsciously, he would then frown and cough, which was quite uncomfortable to hold back.

Seeing his acting, Gregory, who was sitting opposite him, felt more uncomfortable than eating a fly. Sometimes he couldn't stand it anymore and snorted heavily to warn Norman.

But there is no point in fighting with Norman now. Looking at the incident report in his hand, Gregory couldn't help but frown. DeLorean and Lin Brown should be back tomorrow. When they arrive, he will hold a meeting with several direct investigators to discuss a plan.

The person who looked even worse than Gregory was a tall gentleman, who was about 40 years old. Although he was not very old, he had very little hair left, especially on the top of his head, which was already quite sparse and quite noticeable.

But he put a lot of effort into his styling, combing the hair on both sides of his head as much as possible towards the middle, trying to make up for his irreversible decline.

This person is Andrew Perkins, a member of the royal family of Moses Sad, the second son of the current king. He is currently in charge of diplomatic affairs, and the most important diplomatic event in the entire country at present is the Continental Exposition to be held in a few months.

He was wiping his head with a handkerchief while reading the materials. He had gotten into big trouble a few days ago because of his recklessness and was in a very bad situation now. He couldn't quite understand the information on the table and could only look at Gregory for help occasionally.

Sitting on the last chair in front of the round table was a woman in her 50s. Like Millie Tang, she had short hair and looked very capable. It was obvious that she did not believe in the saint either.

She didn't look at the materials in her hands, but put her hands on the table and fiddled with her fingers. She wore a ring on each finger, and each ring was engraved with a complex heraldic pattern, which looked like a special key to open a door somewhere.

She is the director of the Special Event Containment Department. Few people know her name, and everyone generally calls her Ms. Director. "Gentlemen, you should have read the information in the report. Although the situation has been brought under control to a certain extent, it cannot be left alone for a long time.

When will it be completely resolved? Tell us what you think. "

Although she was speaking to the three people present, her eyes were directed at Sir Gregory.

Chief Norman was called by her purely as an advisor. After all, Norman was still nominally the chief of the investigation department and had rich experience in dealing with incidents. Now that such a big thing had happened, he couldn't just stand by and watch.

Although Andrew is the culprit of the whole incident, he does not understand the extent of the danger of such incidents and cannot be expected to solve the problem.

Then Gregory was the only one left. Before Andrew submitted the application, he had already warned him, and it was only with Gregory's guarantee that he reluctantly agreed.

Now he should be responsible for this mess.

"My people will be back in the next two days. There's no need to make a fuss. The situation is under control for the time being. I'll give you an explanation within two months."

Gregory's face tightened a little. He had worked in the headquarters for decades but this was the first time he suffered such a big setback. Thinking back, if Andrew and several other nobles had not come to him for help, he would not have been so stupid as to agree to their proposal.

Alas, it's too late to regret now.

Thinking of this, he glared at Andrew who was still wiping his sweat. When he looked away, he found that Norman, the pretentious hypocrite, was looking at him. Although he didn't laugh out loud, Gregory always felt that he was laughing at himself.

"Norman, I ask you, what are you laughing at!"

"I'm not laughing, Sir Gregory. I'm the chief of the Special Incident Investigation Department. How can I laugh when encountering such a terrible incident?"

"Bullshit, I clearly saw you laughing!"

"No, no, I... I've been through this for a long time and I won't laugh no matter what funny things I encounter."

Commander Norman waved his hands and bowed his head frequently. He had to bow his head. He couldn't help it when he looked at Gregory's face.

"That's enough! Chief Norman, don't you have a new ace investigator? Can you ask him to help?"

The minister interrupted the pointless argument and looked at Norman calmly.

"There is such a person."

Before speaking, Norman glanced at Gregory and continued:

"But he has been very busy in the past few months, solving three special cases without stopping, and they are all the most difficult and dangerous ones.

I plan to let him rest for a while. Even the most capable investigator can't stand being used like this."

These words were gentle but firm, and there was nothing wrong with them. Gregory did not talk back, which was rare. Before the meeting, he also received a call from DeLorean. Ricky had successfully disrupted the secret meeting in Sabine Forest.

Tsk, when will I have someone like this?

“I understand. Then let Sir Gregory take charge first. But Chief Norman, I have to make it clear in advance that if the problem cannot be solved within two months, I may need the support of your people.

After all, this is the trouble caused by your Special Incident Investigation Department."

The minister looked at her hands with a serious expression, because she knew that it was unlikely to be resolved in two months. The three people present might not know how dangerous the things that escaped from the shelter were.

Everyone, have a nice weekend!

Haha, people really can't do things when they are tired. I did that yesterday. I went home and proofread in a daze. The proofreading was pretty good, but there was one thing. When I sent it, it was a draft. Haha, I just found out today. Fortunately, it didn't affect the plot, but the wording and sentence structure were rough. Please bear with me, old friends.

Today’s 7K is very high, just watch it. With Lao Liu’s escape from the Sabines Forest, our story has entered the next big chapter, which I will temporarily name the Continental Expo Chapter.

Which old friends and new friends will appear in this story? Please stay tuned.
