Congratulations, You've Become an NPC

"Stop, the front is temporarily closed to traffic.

Arriving not far in front of the clothing store, Arnold was stopped as expected.

A civil servant stood in front of him and looked at him doubtfully.

If Arno hadn't been dressed in luxurious clothes and looked like he was not an ordinary civilian, he would have driven them away directly.

"I'm here to help you solve this problem."

Arno smiled and said friendly.

"I'm very sorry, we don't need help from unrelated people yet."

The tone was very polite and the attitude was very contemptuous. He probably regarded Arno as that kind of pretentious and incompetent person.

Indeed, there are many such people among the high-level disciples, and Arnold can understand his attitude.

"Don't be so anxious to deny it."

Waving his hand, Arnold threw a square piece to the other party and walked inside.

"I am a special investigator from the empire, specifically responsible for dealing with terrorists and all dangerous people near the royal capital."

He only left this sentence.

The civil servant looked down at the sign in his hand, and his face turned gray for a moment.

He couldn't admit it, the brand was definitely authentic.

No one but the Empire has the ability to forge such a thing.

The rare metals contained in it carry special certifications and are difficult to obtain within the empire.

"Am I leaving the empire?"

Thinking about his attitude just now, he fell into annoyance.

the other side,

Arno didn't care about that kind of thing at all.

One is because he doesn’t have time to pay attention to the supporting NPC.

The second reason is because he does not have that authority.

Yes, just like the arrest warrant when entering the Correcter, this sign is also fake.

However, this was done with the help of the corrector’s resources, and apart from the fact that there is no official certification, it can also be regarded as true.

"Who are you?"

Looking at Arno walking towards him with a natural look on his face, the leader immediately pointed his gun at him and questioned him.

Arno ignored him and looked at the situation inside through the window of the clothing store's visiting model.

A group of hostages were surrounded, with guns pointed at them, forcing them to squat down and hold their heads in their hands.

Of course Alicia is among them.

Her beautiful face was pale, and her already fair skin was as pale as snow, giving her a strange sense of beauty.

"I am a special investigator from the empire, and I will now officially take over your work."

After surveying the scene, he showed his sign to the leader and said in a deep voice.

"Report the current situation to me immediately."

"yes!"

The team leader was stunned for a moment. After confirming that the sign was correct, he immediately saluted with a standard military salute.

"There are currently eleven terrorists surrounded by us. Except for three women, they are all men. The leader is the strong man with a scar on his face."

Listening to the news reported by the team leader, Arno nodded.

"What about the hostage situation?"

"Yes, no one has been injured yet."

"I didn't ask you this. What are the identities of the hostages? Are there any family members of senior officials among them?"

"this……"

"answer my question."

"Yes, we have found out that Alicia Alice De Noir, the wife of the Deputy Minister of Science and Technology, is among this group of hostages."

"So, is this why you're complaining?"

"……Yes."

"This is indeed a problem."

Hiding his smile, Arno said solemnly.

"If we force a breakthrough, if Ms. Alicia recovers a little bit of her injuries, everyone here will not be able to bear the consequences."

"so……"

After glancing at everyone, Arno continued.

"——I want to negotiate with them alone."

"this!"

The team leader was shocked and said quickly, "Absolutely not!"

"Then we are going to have a stalemate here? The empire is losing face, right?"

Arno stared at the leader, "I alone bear all the responsibilities."

The team leader gritted his teeth and said, "I wish you good luck in martial arts."

Arno nodded, glanced at everyone again, turned and walked towards the interior of the clothing store.

The moment he turned around, an irrepressible smile appeared on his lips.

With so much foreshadowing, of course he was acting alone.

If everyone acted together, his influence would be greatly reduced.

Personal heroism is always more valuable than unity, even if it is not worthy of encouragement.

"Do you think he can do it?"

Looking at Arno's back, a squad leader asked.

"No, he absolutely can't."

"This person is just a stupid, reckless man without self-awareness."

"But he can bear all the costs for our failure."

"We can put all the responsibilities after the rescue failure on him."

At this time, the leader of the team still looked like he was struggling in front of Arno. He looked much happier than Arno, who had planned well.

"Wait, wait for the moment when that stupid and ugly body is carried out by those people."

The time shone on his face, both bright and dark.

——

At this time, Arnold had already entered the clothing store.

"who are you!?"

The dark muzzles of dozens of muskets immediately pointed at him.

It seemed that as long as Arno made the slightest move, these people would immediately shoot him and beat him to pieces.

"Sure enough, there is no magician among these people."

"It seems that Evie is doing well."

"If you are a magician, you may lose control, but ordinary people do not have this possibility."

After a quick glance at the scene, Arno felt relieved.

Everything is under his control.

"Huh?"

At this time, one of the hostages made a surprised sound.

Arno looked and saw that it was Alicia.

"Shut up, who told you to speak out."

A fierce man guarding the hostages immediately scolded Alicia angrily.

He raised his hand, as if he was about to smash it down with the butt of his gun, but halfway, he seemed to think of something and interrupted his action.

"Be smart and don't make any small moves!"

Finally, the man just scolded.

Alicia nodded quickly and looked at Arno with eyes full of pleading.

To be honest, Arno's heart almost softened after seeing this look.

But fortunately, he is a person who understands the importance of things.

"Don't be nervous, I'm just here to talk to you."

Arno raised his hands, "Look, I came in without a weapon, and I'm not a magician. I pose no threat to you."

"Hmph, you government dogs, what do you want to come and talk to us about?"

Just as the team leader said, a strong man with a scar on his face stood up first and questioned Arno.

Everyone around him was respectful to him.

But Arno could see a hint of cowardice flashing in the man's eyes.

This is of course, after all, these people are just ordinary actors playing the roles of death row prisoners.

Evie specially selected criminals who were cowardly, valued family ties, but were unforgivable.

This is perfect casting.

Especially, for them, who can only value family ties, Arnold holds the lives of their entire family in his hands.
