Tianjin people will never lose SAN

Chapter 222 Ignorance is bliss, bye bye, I accept the invitation
In the early morning in the wiring room, the curtains were drawn and the sunlight was pouring onto the ground. General Manager Norman was sitting with his legs crossed, holding a newspaper, drinking black tea and watching the news, looking so leisurely.

Outside the door, Oliver was holding a thick stack of documents in one hand and a cup of coffee in the other. He struggled to open the door with his elbow, and when he entered, he saw Chief Norman, who looked calm and composed.

Oliver thought to himself, You are very generous.

"Chief, Investigator Ricky has come out with Shi Weitian and the Brave Squad."

"Oh, I knew this kid would be fine."

Chief Norman never took his eyes off the newspaper. Recently, several strange things had happened in New Newrent, causing a lot of buzz. Many passers-by claimed that they had seen a strange-looking ascetic in the middle of the night. The places where he appeared included the rooftop of a villa, in the mirror at home, and even on the river. In short, there were all kinds of places. Now both major and minor newspapers were vying to report on it, and experts and scholars from all walks of life came forward to speculate on the truth.

People have always had a strong interest in such bizarre gossip. I heard that many people even wrote a joint letter to Bishop Bernard of the Holy Woman Sect, hoping that the bishop would come forward to confirm whether this was a ghost from hundreds of years ago or a cruel pagan who had infiltrated Mosessade.

"He came back last night. Ricky should still be guarding outside the medical department on the third floor?"

"Is he injured? Or is Millie Tang injured?"

"Neither. I heard that Lin Brown's mental state was not very good after coming out of 1408."

"Oh……"

Upon hearing that his two aces were fine, General Norman, who had just sat up straight, leaned limply on the sofa again. Lin Brown was Gregory's man, and he was not close to him, nor did he know his background. Although it was a pity that he was injured in the mission, at least he survived.

Looking at General Norman's behavior, Oliver really wanted to walk up and kick him twice. For this guy, sometimes being ignorant is a kind of happiness.

Chief Norman actually didn't know much about the hidden dangers in 1408. It wasn't his fault. The people in the containment department had been in contact with Gregory during this period, and...

On the night when General Norman came to her estate, Oliver's grandfather casually talked to her about what happened in 1408.

The old General Sisram also had his own selfish motives. Although he hoped that the chaos of 1408 would be resolved, he absolutely did not want the Norman General to act on impulse.

Ricky is his trump card. If he really wants to know the truth about 1408, he will definitely send rescuers at all costs. At that time, if something goes wrong, all the investigators in his group in the investigation department will be wiped out.

The Continental Exposition is now Moses Sader's top priority, and nothing can go wrong at this critical juncture, so he deliberately concealed it and kept Norman in the dark.

If Liu Yonglu and the others hadn't come back today, Oliver had already thought about it and would definitely hint to General Norman to send more reinforcements later, but since Shi Weitian was back, the dark cloud was finally dissipated.

"Why are you still standing there? Come on, let's go to the third floor to see Ricky."

Chief Norman still had an innocent expression on his face and greeted Oliver while wearing a top hat.

……

At this time, in the medical department on the third floor, the door of the ward opened, and Peggy and Sir Gregory walked out while talking, and saw Liu Yonglu lying on the bench at the door.

"Didn't you tell him to go back first?"

"I told him, but Ricky insisted on staying outside. He wanted to sleep in the ward and asked me if I had a folding bed."

This was the first time that Peggy had seen this investigator. Yesterday, he came upstairs in a hurry, carrying a bag of fruit in one hand and a bottle of milk in the other. He said he was here to see someone, and was about to rush in with a glare on his face, but in the end, he was stopped outside by her.

At night, Peggy also secretly went out to see Liu Yonglu several times. He either sat on a chair peeling and eating apples or slept with his windbreaker covering him.

"Ricky, Ricky, wake up, go home and sleep if you want."

Liu Yonglu rubbed his eyes and sat up from his chair in a daze. When he saw that it was Sir Gregory, he quickly grabbed his hand:

"Old Sir, how is he doing? Did he make it through?"

Gregory's eyelids twitched, and he thought to himself that if Lin Brown was not dead, he would be killed by your nagging sooner or later.

"He's fine, he just needs to rest for a few weeks. Let him stay in the medical department for the time being." Gregory knew Lin Brown's condition best. He had just discussed his condition with Peggy in the ward. Facing the gods directly made his spirit extremely fragile. Peggy speculated that the so-called nightmare now was more caused by the tremendous pressure that Lin Brown had been bearing for a long time.

He should be able to recover after resting in the medical department for a while, but... no one can get rid of the one-eyed evil god lurking in Lin Brown's body. If this thing is not eliminated, it will always be a huge hidden danger.

The wards in the medical department are specially built, divided into two parts, the innermost part is equipped with a small bed and medical equipment, and the outer part is a small meeting room. There is a one-way glass barrier between the two parts, which is convenient for medical staff to observe the condition of the patient and also prevent mentally ill investigators from suddenly hurting people.

So there was no space in the ward for Liu Yonglu to put the folding bed.

"Sir Gregory, is Linbrand awake?"

Millie Tang came over with breakfast. She didn't accompany Liu Yonglu to keep watch yesterday because Liu Yonglu gave her two tasks as soon as they met. The first was to bring Xiaohu back. During the time that Liu Yonglu and his friends had been in 1408, Xiaohu had been taken care of by the second uncle Marquette.

Second, "place" the skinny little Mr. Shani in Millie Tang's house first.

Millie Tang rolled her eyes. What was going on? First she had to cook for a god and put him to bed, and then she had to find a room in the attic and lock up a god's creation in it.

Our house has become a containment unit! ?
"It's okay, Mi Li'er. Let's go in and check on the wet blanket later. I'll boil a pot of eight-treasure porridge and bring it to him in the evening. Do you have a small metal rice bowl at home? The kind with layers and a lid?"

"I am searching……"

Considering Lin Brown's injury, Millie Tang was unwilling to get angry with Liu Yonglu.

"Ricky, do you have a minute? I want to tell you something."

The one-eyed evil god is a hidden danger after all, and Gregory thinks it’s time to talk things over with Ricky. Since he is now the captain of Lin Brown, they have to work together to find a solution.

"Forget it. Come to my study to find me some other day."

Looking over Liu Yonglu's shoulder, Gregory saw General Norman. He had just gotten up early and was too lazy to waste any more time talking to this nonsense guy.

Sir Gregory snorted and nodded to Commander Norman, saying hello and turned to leave the third floor.

"Ricky, I knew you'd be fine."

General Norman forced a smile and patted Liu Yonglu on the shoulder. Looking at the wrinkles on his body, it was not difficult to guess that this guy probably slept in the corridor all night.

He is worthy of being the investigation team leader that I have chosen. Not only is he capable, but he is also loyal and righteous. He is quite like me in my day.

"Hey, it's all their credit, and of course it's also the result of your wise command, old man." Liu Yonglu was rarely humble.

"Well, Ricky, do you have time recently? Let me introduce someone to you."

Oliver knew that General Norman was inviting Richie to the manor on behalf of his grandfather, and that several people at the dinner table would definitely talk about the Continental Exposition.

"Sei (second tone who)?"

"You'll know then. By the way, Millie Tang, you should come with us."

General Norman also knew that if Richie was sent to Calder County to escort Nicholas Somilian, he would most likely bring Millie Tang with him. It would be better to take them both with him. Richie was sometimes confused, and Millie Tang could help to smooth things over.

"Director Norman, I also have something to tell you." Millie Tang spoke.
