inner city.
[-] Second Street, Pompeii Manor.
A group of unexpected guests came here today.
A man and a woman led the way, leading seven or eight investigators in uniform, and followed the old butler Binoz to the gate of the villa.
The Viscount Pompeii was waiting here, and Rebecca approached curiously, but was held back by her mother, so she had no choice but to stand quietly at a distance to eavesdrop.
"Honorable Viscount Pompeii, I am the commissioner of the shelter, Roderick."
"Mr. Commissioner, hello."
Viscount Pompeii and Roderick shook hands in a friendly manner.
Glancing at the certificate presented by the other party, a trace of doubt and vigilance flashed in Viscount Pompeii's eyes.
"I don't know what is the important matter for you to come to Pompeii Manor today?"
"We are investigating a mysterious hazard incident. A heinous murderer brutally murdered Mr. Morimer, a professor of history at Goldwest Girls' School, near the water beach in the outer city..."
Roderick made a serious statement.
Rebecca, who was eavesdropping, was startled, she covered her mouth in disbelief.Professor Morlimer, whom he had just met not long ago, was murdered? !
Mrs. Pompey was also very surprised. She prayed for the protection of the sun in a low voice, and then worried about the security of Amber City.
"In addition, there are more than a dozen homicides related to this prisoner. After deduction, we have confirmed his identity, and I believe you also know him...
Jack Speight, who once pretended to be a foreign scholar, came to your manor to serve as Miss Rebecca's tutor. "
Roderick said indifferently.
"Excuse me, Viscount Pompeii, can you provide some information about him?"
"!!"
The Pompeii family was stunned.
"This is impossible!"
Rebecca broke free from her mother's hand, walked up to the tall man in black, raised her head and glared at him.
"Mr. Jack is no murderer! You are slandering!"
Roderick ignored the little girl and just quietly waited for Viscount Pompeii's response.
"Rebecca!"
Viscount Pompeii stopped his daughter, gave her a serious and silent look, and then called the old butler to take Rebecca away.
Rebecca was very unconvinced, but under the pull of Butler Binoz and her mother, she went to the living room.
"Mr. Commissioner, I'm sorry, I don't know Mr. Jack very well, and I regret that I can't help you."
said Viscount Pompey.
"So that's how it is... By the way, Viscount Pompeii, I heard from my subordinates that Mr. Jack seemed to be the person involved in the riot at the Cuidi Zoo before."
Roderick said.
"My colleague once visited you at home, and it was you who gave him a guarantee... Although you are a viscount, it is also against the law of the "Sun Code" to cover up a wanted felon in an asylum. Please bear this in mind. "
Viscount Pompey listened in silence.
He looked directly at Roderick.
"May I take your words as a threat?"
"Oh no, it's just a warning."
Roderick said calmly.
Viscount Pompeii snorted coldly.
"If you have evidence, then order people to be arrested! If you don't have evidence, don't intimidate me here! I violated a lot of laws and regulations in overseas battlefields, and I experienced a lot of horror scenes. You can't scare me. Mr. Commissioner.
Please go back sir, there is no answer you want here! "
Roderick looked at Viscount Pompeii coldly, and the latter gave him a disdainful look.
"If you meet Mr. Jack during this time, please convey the news to us as soon as possible. This is for the safety of His Excellency the Viscount and your family... Finally, may the moonlight bless you."
After Roderick finished, he led the team away.
Meng Na looked back for the last time, and found that the Viscount frowned, not knowing what he was thinking.
After Roderick and his party leave.
"father!"
Rebecca rushed over with a concerned look on her face.
Mrs. Pompey took the Viscount's arm and asked worriedly:
"Is Mr. Jack really a murderer? Pompeii..."
Viscount Pompey shook his head lightly.
"I don't think Mr. Jack is that kind of person."
"Then what should we do now, Your Excellency the Viscount, do you need me to inform Your Excellency Jack?"
Binozz stood aside and said.
"Don't act rashly, they definitely sent someone to monitor the manor at all times, and our every move is in their eyes."
Viscount Pompeii said in a deep voice.
"I just hope that Mr. Jack is safe and sound."
He sighed.
Seeing this, Rebecca showed an extremely disappointed expression.
She turned around, avoided her parents' sight, and secretly made a prayer gesture of the Moon Church.
Swipe a semi-circular arc with your fingers and tap your lips.
Granny Moonlight, please bless Mr. Jack.

Chapter 1 The Hometown Was Copied
Jack Manor.
Teams of investigators in uniform rushed in under the command of Roderick.They held flintlock guns, said nothing to each other, and moved with gestures.
"Sir, do we have to do this?"
Meng Na turned her head and frowned slightly.
Roderick looked at his investigators, who were searching the manor in an orderly manner, and said flatly:
"Are you sympathizing? Why do you have this emotion? When you attack other targets, you are so weak."
"I've done a serious investigation and found that this transcendent named 'Jack' did not commit any heinous crimes... If it is said that a small town branch of the Red Apple Church was once destroyed, it is not within our jurisdiction .”
Mona said.
"After I graduated from the Royal Academy, I was transferred directly to the shelter in Amber City. I believe in the supremacy of evidence. Whether it is the 'Cui Ti Zoo Incident' or the 'Extermination Operation', there is no direct evidence that can prove that this person violated the " Solar Code and Containment Regulations.
Moreover, I am not very in favor of adopting in situ executions for all targets. "
Roderick sneered.
A phantom flashed across his hand, and with a snap, he grabbed the revolver in the holster under Mona's ribs.
yah...
The magazine of the revolver turned, and Mona was startled in vain.
When she regained consciousness, the muzzle of the revolver had already been aimed at the center of her eyebrows.
"I have a gun now, I just need to pull the trigger to kill you..."
Roderick's cold voice came,
"But do you want to catch me after I really kill you?"
Bang! !
A shot goes off!
Meng Na looked at her officer expressionlessly, who held a revolver and shot her in the side of the face.Her ears were buzzing, and a trace of warmth ran down her cheeks.
Roderick chuckled, and turned the revolver, pointing the butt towards Mona.
"Courage is commendable...but you have to know that what the shelter needs is not only courage, but also determination, the determination to suppress all factors that endanger the instability of the empire."
Mona turned a blind eye to the blood flowing from her ear, took the gun and put it back into the holster.
"Commander Roderick, even if you are my officer, you don't have the right to use my gun without permission... Go back to the shelter, and I will report this matter according to the rules."
"what ever."
Roderick was unmoved by her words.
Soon, an investigator came out of the manor and stood in front of Roderick.
"Sir, no one was found. Except for some tools and machinery in the warehouse, everything else has been removed... It can be inferred that the murderer has fled ahead of time."
"Clear the contents inside, and take away all the valuables. These are all stolen goods."
Roderick ordered.
The investigator in front of him nodded, saluted his chest and turned back.
Roderick glanced at the building across the street calmly, secretly thinking that it was a pity.
There is also a group of investigators hidden there, carrying high-quality weapons made by the extraordinary workshop. As long as Jack shows up, he can be rounded up.
Since you didn't catch it on the spot, let's wait for the next time...
The shelter has already issued a wanted warrant, as long as this guy is still in Amber City, it is enough to make it impossible for him to move.
The people waiting for the shelter carried large and small objects out and placed them on the carriage, and Roderick collected the team and left.
The large army was so aggressive that it scared away a goldfinch resting on a branch.
A distant street corner.
Polaris and Su Keying were watching secretly, and the three guild players of the Centaur were also standing behind them.
"What should we do? Our forces seem to be in big trouble..."
Su Keying said.
Polaris paused for a moment.
"Jack has probably done something important, otherwise it would be impossible to provoke such a big reaction from the shelter..."
The three horsemen looked at each other in blank dismay.
Not long after they found Polaris, it took a lot of talk and cost to persuade the other party to accept them and be willing to "take" them to play.
As a result, as soon as I joined this force, my hometown was copied. What is this called? !
"Zhuo! What a mess, I wasted so much energy, I didn't even pick up a single task! There are only a few days left in the closed beta, you can't enter the whiteboard number, and get out the whiteboard number?!"
Goutoujin complained.
His good friend Wang Wuji also feels depressed, and doesn't know how to explain to the president if this continues.
"Don't worry, this shows one thing."
Polaris turned his head and said.
The others cast doubtful glances at him.
"The faction we belong to now doesn't have any key members, and it's all supported by that 'Mr. Jack'. But he can make such a big noise on his own, which shows that he is really not simple..."
Polaris analyzed.
He also thought of the horror panel he saw when he was testing Jack, and he saw the leopard through the tube. His real strength may have reached the ceiling at this stage, or even higher.
Coupled with the [Surprise] and extraordinary knowledge glimpsed at the other party, this is definitely a big shot.
