Chapter 303 The Curse of the Milly Tang Family
"Oh my God! Ricky, please tell me more carefully. You are the ace of our investigation department now. As your boss, I am also distressed to see you distracted by such things."

Commander Norman tried hard to pretend to be heartbroken and empathetic, but his acting skills were really bad. His lines and facial expressions were separate and didn't make any sense.

The high-sounding tone he spoke sounded a little sad, but the corners of his mouth were always upturned, and his eyes were shining. He had never been so happy when Liu Yonglu made great contributions before.

Liu Yonglu is angry! Hey, you are happy to see me in pain, right? Okay, I will show you how to do it too.

“That’s right… well, I found that after working with Millie Tang for a long time, a subtle feeling has developed between the two of us. That feeling… Tsk.

Just like eating old tofu requires steamed buns made with fermented flour, and eating pancakes requires buying a bag of dough, old man, can you understand my feelings?"

Norman certainly couldn't understand it, but when he heard the name "Millie Tang", he could guess what was going on.

"Rich, although there are some various trends in Mosesad now, and even some guys in the palace secretly advocate this kind of tricks that are difficult for ordinary people to accept, but you also know that I am an old-fashioned person. Seeing that you think the same way, I really don’t know what to say."

Pretend! Old BK, you are determined to pretend until the last second, right?
"Old man, we are thinking alike. Although I am alone in New Newland working for our investigation department, my parents are very strict. Although I can't help myself now, but...ah..."

Liu Yonglu was not lying. There were so many strange things in this world. Maybe there was a way to travel back in time. He brought Millie Tang home and told her that she was a boy. His parents would die.

"I heard from Haverson a few days ago that the Holy See has a Peaceful Heart Lake, which is specially designed to help the clergy of the Holy See cleanse their distracting thoughts. I plan to go back with them once the Continental Expo is over.

Don't worry, when I come back, I will never let this mess affect my work again. I really don't want to take leave, but there is nothing I can do about it."

Liu Yonglu thought, "Aren't you a bad speaker? Okay, I won't play with you anymore. I'll go back to the Holy See and become Saint Balanche. Let's see if you're panicking."

Norman, who was sitting opposite him, was dumbfounded. He had never expected Ricky to say such a thing. What did he mean? To take an indefinite leave? Just because of the "forbidden love" between him and Millie Tang?
"Hey, Ricky, don't be impulsive. There's something I wanted to tell you a long time ago."

"Old man, don't persuade me. I have made up my mind. Don't worry, I will try not to be gone for too long. I will be back in two or three years if possible."

Norman opened his mouth twice, as if preparing his words:

"Ricky, this is all Millie Tang's fault! She didn't let me tell anyone!"

After thinking for a long time, General Norman came up with this idea: pass the buck!
"Millie Tang's true identity is actually a witch..."

"What the witch means is...she's not a man!?"

Liu Yonglu could hardly hold it in any longer and asked with a sly look in his eyes.

"Nonsense, a man will become a wizard, so you don't have to question your feelings. Don't mention going to the Holy See anymore."

Norman knew he was in the wrong, so he lowered his head and stared at the coffee cup in his hand while trying to persuade him kindly. However, he did not see the expression on Liu Yonglu's face who was sitting opposite him.

Liu Yonglu stood up immediately:
"You are a girl, not a man!"

Although Liu Yonglu had guessed Millie Tang's identity before, he felt different when he heard Chief Norman confirm it in person.

Steady!

Of course, General Norman didn't understand what he was singing. He saw that his ace had lost his usual playful smile and his face was tense. He could hardly hold the cigarette in his hand.
"Ricky...you don't just adore...Milli Tang in men's clothing, do you?"

Norman was frightened by Liu Yonglu's seriousness, and he asked cautiously.

"No, no, no, no, old man, cut it wherever you want."

Liu Yonglu hurried back and sat down, his facial features twitching as if they were out of control.

"Ricky, please sit down first. Let me tell you, the main reason why I didn't tell you clearly about Millie Tang's identity before was because Millie Tang didn't let me tell you."

Norman was worried that Liu Yonglu would bring up the past, so he repeated it again:
"But there are other reasons besides this. I am also protecting you and don't want you to have too much contact with Millie. By the way, Millie Tang's real name is Millie Tomford."

"Why do you say that? Could it be related to your identity as a witch?"

Having said that, even though Liu Yonglu has known Millie Tang for such a long time, he actually doesn’t know much about her family background and doesn’t even know her real name.

One night, Millie Tang did mention something vaguely, but unfortunately, this guy fell asleep.

"Well, let's start with what you are more concerned about. Did Millie Tang tell you about her mother and grandmother?"

"No, so, do you know about my mother-in-law? Does she like it? I'll go visit her later so I can prepare in advance."

Chief Norman shook his head and took a deep breath, seeming to recall something from long ago:

“I was in my early twenties when I first met Millie Tang’s grandmother. By then, her grandmother had changed back into women’s clothing, and must have gotten married.

Just like Millie Tang, she was also a witch whose beauty was hard to describe in words. Maybe because of her age, her temper was a little better than Millie Tang's.

At that time, the Investigation Department encountered a difficult case..." Chief Norman spoke slowly and his tone became gentler and more youthful, as if he had returned to his youth. Liu Yonglu muttered in his heart, no wonder this old BK took such good care of Millie Tang, it turned out that he had fallen in love with her grandmother, but it was a pity that she was already married at that time.

“By some strange coincidence, her grandmother saved my life. Chief Sisram later told me that this was the last witch in Mosesad. Her family had been cooperating with the Investigation Department for hundreds of years in exchange for official protection.

But... a few years later, when the Investigation Department found an ancient book that was difficult to decipher, I suggested to Chief Sisram that we ask Millitang's grandmother to help again, but Chief Sisram said..."

"What did you say!?"

General Norman was still panting heavily when he spoke about the critical moment, and he lowered his head to drink coffee.

"She's missing. Her grandmother is missing. She was around 30 years old."

"Not dead? Look at the bright side, maybe he died of illness. We are not related, so he didn't invite you for the funeral."

"She disappeared at Miskatonic University. What I want to tell you is that a few years ago, just before Millie Tang officially replaced her mother and cooperated with the Investigation Department, her mother also disappeared.

I have no right to access the witch files before that. They are still sealed in the third underground floor of the Investigation Department. I can only unseal them with the royal family's consent."

Liu Yonglu swallowed his saliva. The disappearance of one person might be a coincidence, but the disappearance of both of them might have a special reason. It was possible that every generation of witches in Mi Li'er's family would mysteriously disappear at around the age of 30.

"You're so smart, you guessed it, right? The Millie Tang family is full of mysteries. I want to be with her in the future. I wonder if you are ready for this."

"What about her father and grandfather?"

"Oh, there's nothing abnormal about them. They should all be built accordingly. Millie Tang's father is a mystic scholar, and her grandfather is just an ordinary university professor. Witches don't pay much attention to their spouse's profession.

But their family seems to have a rule that they must appear in male form before marriage. I think it may be related to the curse. They don’t want the opposite sex to have anything to do with themselves because they know their future destiny.

But you also know... the charm of a witch can't be hidden sometimes. I didn't expect that this time a silly boy like you would get the advantage."

At this point, General Norman raised his coffee cup and made a toast gesture, as if he was envious of Liu Yonglu's luck, and seemed to admire his courage.

"Missing... that's easy, just look for it, maybe we can find it back."

Liu Yonglu didn't understand what was going on, but he was still happy about it. In his mind, he could already imagine the admiring look in Mi Li'er's eyes when he single-handedly found Mi Li'er's mother and grandmother. By then, his status in the family would be greatly elevated.

"Ricky, you don't seem to know much about the history of witches."

Seeing Ricky laughing foolishly, the boss sucked his teeth.

"Don't witches have a history? I just glanced at the Saint's texts I read before."

Norman thought to himself that you really wanted to go to the Holy See to meditate before, but it was not his fault. The history of witches was indeed a secret to ordinary people, but as the head of the investigation department, he still knew some of it:

“I think this period of history is also related to the mystery of the disappearance of Millie Tang’s mother and grandmother, but the forces involved are too great, so I haven’t been able to study it seriously.”

"What do you mean? Could the disappearance be caused by human beings?"

Liu Yonglu could understand the elegant meaning from the sound of the strings. His mind was now focused on Millie Tang, so his brain was naturally working well and he reacted immediately.

"I didn't say that."

General Norman was very secretive, but continued:

"Do you know why witches were destroyed?"

"I don't know. If it's related to the occult, then... isn't the Saint's Sect also the number one faith in the Western Continent? Haverson is holding an ancient relic in his hand."

“The Saints are different from witches. They have been committed to spreading the gospel from beginning to end. Bishop Bernard presides over church affairs in New Nulund, but he will only show up at the royal coronation ceremony.

I am a witness appointed by the Saint, responsible for blessing and praying. "

"Oh... So, what evil things did the witch do in the past?"

Chief Norman leaned forward slightly and said in a low voice:
"You still don't understand. It doesn't matter what the witches did. What matters is that they tried...

Meddle in politics! "
