After waking up

Just two days later, Mulan received a secret order from the queen, asking him to prepare to secretly investigate the corruption problem in the imperial military, and hoped that Mulan would give his own plans and suggestions. Mulan, who had been thinking about it for a long time, started to write directly. Program book.

Mulan knew that this was the most critical test for him by the Queen. It related to his loyalty and ability. Whether he could handle this matter well not only related to the families, lives and even reputation of countless comrades, but also related to Mulan. His own political future applies to both the imperial elite and the Black Castle.

This matter cannot be started directly from the top, as this may provoke a fierce backlash. What really needs to be done is to make a big deal out of a small thing and then make a mountain out of a molehill.

The entire plan has a total of more than ten pages. Mulan has been staying in the office of the York Regional Police, writing from dawn to dusk, and then from dusk to dawn. After completing it, he will directly submit it to the Queen. At that time, Nice Hurley Er hasn't gotten up yet.

In the palace, after breakfast, Nishelil began to deal with government affairs. The first thing she did was to read the plan sent by Mulan.

Even if it was thought that Mulan must have thought about this level before, it was difficult to convince Nishelir how complete the plan was when it was delivered just one day later.

But as Nice Helier continued to read a little bit, the expression on her face became more and more serious. Before, it felt like reading ten lines at a glance, but then she read directly word for word, not letting go of any details, and unknowingly, the words were densely packed into more than ten lines. I have read through all the pages of the plan.

"Your Majesty, it seems that this plan is very good?"

The assistant minister next to him didn't speak until now, but Nishelir directly handed him the plan.

"You two should take a look, it's very interesting."

Two assistant ministers who often accompany the queen came together to review Mulan's plan. They read it very quickly, but they also did not miss many details.

"It's a brilliant plan, and even though some of the things it does may seem illegitimate, it works."

Another male minister also laughed.

"This shows that he actually sees the essence of the matter very clearly, and it also shows that he is more mature than we thought. I thought he would rush to the queen to complain about this matter, but now it seems that he is more immature. I have made up my mind and made a gamble with my future."

Nice Helier thought for a moment and said.

"Is he betting that he can succeed?"

"No, Your Majesty!"

The tall assistant minister handed the plan back to Nicehelil and explained his point of view in a calm and low voice.

"He has no doubts about his success. This confidence can be reflected in the plan. He is betting on His Majesty's wisdom. It is also a test of His Majesty's courage!"

Nishelir's eyes widened instantly.

"How dare he"

"This plan reflects his full trust in His Majesty and also his expectations for Your Majesty. Your Majesty should consider carefully how to respond. After all, if it is really implemented, it will definitely damage the interests of some big nobles in the future."

On this day, Mulan was not recruited into the palace, nor did he receive any reply. But on the next day, Mulan received a letter. The envelope was very simple, and there was no sender. But after opening it, there was a letter inside. A letter of command bearing the Queen's seal.

Mullan was undoubtedly excited when he saw this order, and the Jonest family's blood seemed to be boiling slightly. As a small political figure, it is undoubtedly very challenging to leverage some powerful people.

Without much hesitation, Mulan returned to the Black Castle early that day and found Guy and Jenny, whom he had not contacted for a long time. The two were now working in the office, doing some work as service personnel.

Unlike Mulan, who is still reused, because the two of them are closer to Doli, they were affected after the Kraken attack. They are no longer qualified to study mysterious knowledge, and are not allowed to enter the library. They can only do Some chores.

This was a huge blow to Guy and Jenny, who had dreams, but there was nothing they could do about it.

When Mulan found the two of them, the boy and the girl were cleaning the dusty file room. Most of the files here were old documents from more than a hundred years ago, and their value was generally not high.

"Cough cough cough cough." "Be careful, cough cough cough."

When Guy pulled out several files, he also brought out a lot of dust, which directly covered the two of them.

"It's so dirty, when will it be cleaned up?"

"Stop complaining, cough."

Mulan had already arrived at the door. When he saw the embarrassed two people inside, he quietly took a step back. After waiting for two minutes, he walked to the door again, acting as if he had just arrived.

"Dong dong~"

"Hello, I hope I didn't disturb you."

Jenny and Guy went out looking for news, and made surprised sounds when they saw Mulan.

"professor!"

Mulan smiled.

"I thought you would call me like I did before. Isn't this kind of work very uncomfortable for you? It's also a waste of your talents."

The two of them gritted their teeth and said nothing. At the same time, there was a vague expectation in their hearts. Sure enough, Mulan said what they expected.

"I can let you two become new students, and I also ask you to do me a small favor. If you are willing, this is also a little secret between us. Don't rush to agree, listen to me before I finish."

As he spoke, Mulan had already taken out two student certificates from his arms. He did not have a big position in the Palace Ministry of Magic, but it was too easy to do this in the teaching field.

After Mullan briefly described the matter, Jenny and Guy immediately spoke up impatiently.

"Yes!" "We are willing!"

"It's easy for us!" "That's right, we won't let you down, Professor!"

The two of them were full of joy and energy. They returned to their residence that night and started rehearsing. They also started preparing makeup. On the other side, under the instruction of Nice Hellier, someone had already arranged the documents and files.

The next day at the York Regional Police Station, two teenagers, a man and a woman, with haggard faces and poor health, came here, begging to report the crime to the police, hoping that the police would help track down their father's death pension. They could no longer live anymore.

After his father joined the army, his mother supported the family independently. The three members of the family struggled to survive amidst the glare and bullying of others. The mother's serious illness overwhelmed the family, and the two siblings began to support the family. A year and a half ago, they received the bad news that their father had been killed in battle. The family She suffered a nervous breakdown and her mother's condition worsened.

My father's letter from the army mentioned that if he was killed in action, he would receive a 10-kind pension, which became a life-saving straw for the family. But after a year and a half, his mother passed away, and the brother and sister could no longer support themselves. Jin still hasn't come down, and even his father's belongings haven't been delivered.

Jenny looks miserable and pitiful, Guy is haggard but well-behaved and sensible, a brother and sister who support each other have reached the end of their lives.

As long as the person who meets them has even a glimmer of conscience, their outstanding performances will tug at his heartstrings and make the detectives and police officers who come into contact with them feel very distressed and regretful.

This was originally an insignificant case, but it was the beginning of Mulan's entire plan.

The people in the police station had no way of intervening in the affairs of the military department. They could only deal with the distressed brother and sister with a guilty mind. Their innocent words and expectant eyes made all the police officers understand that they believed in those who filed the case. perfunctory nonsense of investigation

One morning a week later, the officers of the York Police Department came to work as usual. Detective Randy walked heavily into the police station, looked at his colleagues who were eating bread or drinking coffee, and said something softly.

"I just received the news that the elder brother of Nia and his sister (pseudonym) passed away on the second night after returning from the police station."

All the police officers who heard this sentence were stunned. This emotion seemed to be contagious, and the entire York Police Department officers quickly fell into silence.

In the afternoon, even Detective Dawson arrived outside Mullan's office, and there were several police detectives behind him. After Dawson hesitated, he knocked on the door.

"Dong dong dong~"

A voice came from inside, "Please come in."

Inspector Dawson straightened his clothes and walked alone into the office that gave people great psychological pressure.

"It's Detective Dawson, what's the matter?"

Mulan looked up at Dawson, who got straight to the point.

"Sir Jones, have you heard about the Nia brothers and sisters?"

Mulan nodded.

"I heard about it, and some were touched by it."

Dawson mustered up his courage.

"We mentioned this matter to the General Administration before, hoping to negotiate with the military department to find Mr. Nia's belongings, but it was rejected. Mr. Jonest, you are our special police officer, we all understand, You are a legendary wizard, can you do this?"

"What about the pension?"

Mulan looked at Dawson and then answered for him.

"Are you going to pay for it yourself?"

Dawson didn't answer directly, just whispered.

"I am also a father of two children."

Mulan sighed.

"Detective, although the power of magic is amazing, it is not omnipotent. I can't do this, I'm sorry."

Dawson also sighed, said "excuse me" and left the office.

The police detectives outside all looked at Dawson. They all showed disappointed expressions after seeing him shaking his head, but they quickly regained their composure because Mulan actually followed him out.

"We have been working together for a long time, but I haven't gotten to know you well. The fact that you came to me today to ask about this matter shows that you are kind-hearted. You are about to get off work. If you don't mind, I will treat you to dinner. Well, maybe it would be more appropriate to get drunk."

The people outside the door were obviously stunned for a moment, and then no matter what they thought in their hearts, they all agreed.

There is a famous Firebird Restaurant next to Dia Newspaper Office. After Mulan called a carriage, the journey was not too far. A group of six people happened to occupy a large table, and Mulan lit the most famous fire. Bird feast, and also ordered good quality wine.

There was soon no distinction of status at the dinner table, there was no detective or wizard, and they all became familiar with each other, but the topic inevitably turned up the topic of Nia's brother and sister, which made everyone a little sad.

"Detective, police officer, you know, I told them at that time that we will try our best to help them get back their pensions and their father's belongings. The two brothers and sisters looked at me with happy expressions, I will never forget that look, that trusting look, I will never forget it.”

"Stop talking, stop talking, drink."

"I have been a police detective for many years, and I thought I had become numb, but they are so distressing. I feel like a bastard!"

"Why"

Several police detectives sounded remorseful, angry and helpless.

At several tables nearby, several Dia Daily reporters, who were having their meals normally, had secretly begun to write down things. The more truthful these police officers revealed, the more they aroused their curiosity. Some were even prepared to investigate in detail overnight. .

The next day, as Mulan expected, the story of the Nia brothers and sisters was reported in the newspaper, and it was still in the second article of the second page.

What happened to Nia's brother and sister is heartbreaking, and when people read about the detectives drinking away their sorrows and crying about their guilt, the police officers' true feelings are also touching.

On the third day, Dia Newspaper received several anonymous letters from miserable families who had also not received pensions or relics.

On the fourth and fifth days, after appearing in the newspapers for several consecutive days, Dia Newspaper received more and more similar letters, and the content of the incident began to be placed on the front page, with the title: "How many more Nia brothers and sisters are there?"

Pressure from all walks of life began to be overwhelming and directed at the belated imperial military.

At this moment, Mulan was teaching a class to the students of Black Castle, and the newly made blackboard was already filled with words.

"Human beings are creatures that can arouse empathy. Among mysterious powers, empathy is valued very highly, but many scholars over-study themselves. In my opinion, the empathy of a group can sometimes become a kind of empathy. A strong resonance, for example, on the battlefield, a desperate army can unleash a combat power that far exceeds the level of training, and it can also be like a lofty ideal."
