Elf: I reincarnated as a Ditto

Late at night, the agents of the Investigation Bureau were still working late into the night, classifying files, organizing information and checking various types of evidence.

Xiaolu, who actually had no professional skills but was recruited or allowed to participate in the case, was already a bit out of place and had experienced huge mood swings during the day. She would sit on the chair next to her and move her head bit by bit.

Yes, it looks like he is sleepy.

Yu Yuanqing noticed Xiaolu's appearance and said, "Xiaolu, go to the duty lounge on the second floor and get yourself a camp bed to sleep in. You can't help much now."

"But……"

"It's nothing, but since you are involved, at least in this case, you must learn to obey orders." Yu Yuanqing interrupted her directly, and comforted: "Tomorrow morning, we will conduct an on-site inspection again, and you will also need to identify me.

.”

"Yes," Xiaolu pursed her lips tightly and picked up Su Qian, who had fallen asleep beside her.

When Xiaolu walked out of the room and stepped onto the stairs to the second floor, Yu Yuanqing was relieved and had to shoulder a new burden, "Is the forensic doctor here?"

"Arrived an hour ago."

"Sorry for troubling you. Let's go and see our old friends."

The two operators put down their belongings and followed Yu Yuanqing out of the room, heading to the small warehouse that was used as a temporary morgue.

Corpses can talk.

For criminal investigation, autopsy is indispensable and extremely important. However, it is inappropriate to conduct and discuss this kind of thing in front of the victim's family. Now let Xiaolu go and complete it at night.

As an elf who has experienced many battles, Su Qian is very vigilant. He was already awake when he was picked up by Xiaolu.

By the time Xiaolu found the duty lounge, put Su Qian on the table, and set up a camp bed in the corner, Su Qian was already completely awake, and even a little too energetic to fall asleep.

After setting up the camp bed, Xiaolu turned her head and saw the strange and bright black eyes under the light, "I'm sorry, I woke you up."

"It doesn't matter."

Comparing the hard solid wood table on which the Variety Monster sat, with the soft canvas camp bed and thin blanket, Xiao Lu was a little embarrassed, "Do you want to sleep on the bed?"

'Hey, Xiaolu is too defenseless against me, right? Although I am indeed powerless now,' Su Qian is in a state of being 'worse than an animal', but he always feels that the situation is a bit subtle, and isn't it too fast?

After thinking a lot, Su Qian still refused and said, "No, it doesn't matter where I lie down. You'd better sleep on the bed by yourself and have a good rest."

"There are other camp beds," Xiaolu dragged out another folded one from the foot of the wall.

There was no light there, and Su Qian couldn't see it just now.

"...No need, leave it to other humans, I really don't care." Su Qian was a little speechless, his feelings were purely his own overthinking.

"Oh, that makes sense." Xiaolu stuffed the camp bed back.

Seeing that there were no other humans or elves around, Su Qianqian asked: "Can you tell me what the search bureau does?"

Turning off the lights, Xiaolu undressed and lay down on the camp bed. She looked at the dark ceiling and said, "I don't know everything. I only heard Liu Ming say some things, read some books and saw some things, and when I came into contact with them, they all acted as

The subject of research..."

She is still used to calling Liu Ming by her name, instead of her mother.

In the darkness, the gentle voice sounded as sweet as a tinkling music box.

Compared with traditional systems such as rangers, police, military, and gyms, the Search Bureau is a younger system.

With the development of the times, exchanges between various regions have become closer and closer. Of course, there are good sides, such as facilitating the circulation of people, world peace, economic development, etc. But if a coin has a positive side, it must also have a negative side.

The effect follows like a shadow and comes with it.

For example, cross-regional crimes, terrorist actions, corruption of regional organizations, etc., and the old forces limited to the region are becoming increasingly unable to deal with these problems.

Therefore, the Elf Alliance, as a union of various regions, has established a search bureau that spans regions, is more convenient to mobilize, and has more flexible means.

The remuneration and conditions are better to attract more talents to join, but of course the risks faced are also higher.

In terms of authority, there will be some conflicts and friction with the local traditional system, which is why Su Qian saw today - the scene where the investigation bureau and the criminal police were arguing.

Based on Xiaolu's description, Su Qian, a scumbag at school, tried to recall the political content he had seen online and compared it with the current world.

'The world is different, and the political structure is also very different. The Elf Alliance is a bit like the United Nations with more real power. No, it is a bit like the federal structure of the beautiful country. The regions are state entities, and the Elf Alliance is at the head.

Beautiful country government?'

'Anyway, the political system here is not like that of the Rabbit Country, eh, but the elves in this world have incredible power. To a certain extent, as long as they are willing to put in the effort, it is a bit like everyone holding a gun. I don't understand, maybe it really can't be done

Just apply it mechanically.'

Su Qian shook his head in distress, 'Forget it, as a changeable monster, I can't be in politics anyway, so why do I think so much.'

'I generally feel that the overall search bureau is a bit like Interpol in the previous life? Well, if there is Team Rocket in this world, then the search bureau is probably an official organization that specializes in keeping an eye on each other, right?'

When comparing the entry-level work of a ranger that he had experienced, Su Qian felt that this job was better than that of a ranger.

As an elf, you have to face danger anyway and go up to fight.

At least the work of the Search Bureau is mostly in the city. The rangers spend many years in the mountains and old forests. If Su Qian was given the choice, he would definitely choose the Search Bureau.

So why are Xu Chengping and Liu Ming so opposed to the search bureau, but welcome Xu Hua to become a patrolman?

After thinking hard for a while, Su Qian asked softly: "Then do you know what Xu Chengping and Liu Ming's experiences were in the investigation bureau? Why did they quit?"

The voice of "Mang Mang" echoed in the room, but Xiaolu didn't respond.

After calming down, you can hear the gentle rising and falling breathing.

No matter how many questions he had in his mind, Su Qian could only stop for now. Xiaolu was too tired today, and she needed to get some extra sleep to soothe her tense nerves.

If you are woken up after falling asleep once, it will be more difficult to fall asleep again, not to mention there are so many questions in your mind.

In the darkness, Su Qian went over what he saw and heard today, secretly guessing the murderer's intentions, whereabouts, etc. He also made wild guesses about Xiaolu's origins and possible follow-up investigation directions. He had to do it himself

Questions like that.

It would be a long time before I fell asleep again.

Vaguely, Su Qian felt that someone was nudging him to get up, but the other person did not insist and left quickly.

So, Su Qian, who woke up just before noon, found that he was the only elf in the duty lounge, and Xiaolu had already left.

After running to the first floor, he met other officers from the Investigation Bureau. After a long chat, Su Qian finally figured out that Xiaolu had followed Yu Yuanqing to the nursery to conduct on-site investigation in the morning. Seeing that she was still sleeping, she left her here.

Already.

(The main purpose is to let Xiaolu identify the difference between the scene and the first scene she saw, and the difference from the nursery in her memory. Yu Yuanqing did not know that Su Qian was the first witness at the scene, but Su Qian in Gengar form

Qian didn't move anything before Xiaolu came, but it didn't make any difference.)

After finishing a meal, Su Qian suddenly found that he had nothing to do.

The operators of the Search Bureau have their own work rhythm and are unlikely to need the help of additional Variety Monsters. And now it is impossible for him to run into the city or the wild to refresh the illustrated book, or to find opponents to fight.

Fortunately, Su Qian found a dictionary in the visitor's lounge of the police station, lay down on a chair and continued to read the words conscientiously.

About ten minutes later, a bejeweled woman was taken to the visitor's lounge by an operator.

"What the hell is going on? I went on vacation for two days and still had to be taken to the police station for questioning. It's really unlucky," she kept yelling with a loud voice from the moment she walked into the police station.

The operator asked the person to sit across the table from him with a cold face, and then pushed the pen and paper over, "Hello, please show me your ID, and then fill in this identity information form truthfully."

After filling out the form, the officer began to ask her questions such as, 'When did she come to Jinwen Town?', 'What did she do in the past two days?', 'How are her social relations?', 'Have you seen anything suspicious?

People', 'Have you seen the person in the photo (Xu Chengping)' and other questions.

Only then did Su Qian realize that the materials that had been piled up in a mess last night had been neatly sorted out, leaving only a small amount still in the lounge.

Due to insufficient office space, this lounge was used as a temporary inquiry room.

After listening for seven or eight minutes, Su Qian felt that this aunt could not be someone related to the case. She was just a housewife who went to the countryside for a summer vacation. Her job in the Deep Gray City was to take care of her grandchildren.

If she is the murderer, then Xu Chengping is too useless. He slapped this aunt in the face and there was no way she could avoid it.

The agents of the Search Bureau still patiently made insinuations, constantly trying to get more information from the other party.

'Well, large-scale interviews and inquiries,' Su Qian understood somewhat. 'The methods of investigation work in both worlds are similar.'

Having seen Xiaolu's fantasy-like 'predicting the future' divination before, and the background of the search bureau being quite high-level, Su Qian thought these operators would use elves to perform some fantastic operations to solve the case.

Under such circumstances, Su Qian lost interest in reading, so he simply put the dictionary behind him as a pillow and listened to the interrogation, treating it as study.

Throughout the afternoon, less than twenty outsiders visited and questioned. If Su Qian were to evaluate them, there were three guys who were more questionable.

Coming from the Hezhong area, a guy claimed to be practicing fighting and was an apprentice at a certain fighting gym. He was wearing tattered clothes and he was hesitant in his speech. He couldn't give any favorable alibi. He said he was there the day before yesterday.

Survival training in the wild.

Came from Yuhong City, but it was a man from the Fengyuan area, who was a researcher of a certain company. He came here for vacation, wearing casual clothes. He spent a whole day fishing outside the day before yesterday, although there were people at certain times.

Proved, but cannot completely escape suspicion.

A private detective from Jinhuang City, wearing casual clothes, sunglasses, and a carefree look. He came here to accept a commission from his employer to capture a cat with nervous characteristics, and he also has a wild capture license. He ran out the day before yesterday.

Went to the Dark Gray City to participate in battles and discussions.

Su Qian, who didn't understand criminal investigation at all, had a very simple reason for suspecting these three people - among the people who had come here, these three were the only trainers. Who did they suspect?

However, after the search bureau reviewed their elves, they let them go back. They probably had information that Su Qian didn't know, and thought they were not suspicious.

It was not until dinner time that Su Qian saw Xiaolu who had returned from the investigation.

She changed into a black summer women's sportswear, which fit her body and looked lean and neat. She tied her long blue hair into a refreshing ponytail and wore a pair of sunglasses to cover her red eyes.

Walking next to Yu Yuanqing, she looked a bit like a delinquent girl who stepped out of a comic and returned from a trip with her boss.

Back in the lounge, Xiaolu naturally sat next to Su Qian, while Yu Yuanqing took the afternoon inquiry report and looked at it.

After a while, Su Qian finally said: "This outfit looks pretty good."

"Thanks."

"Wearing sunglasses is very fashionable now."

"It's summer."

Embarrassing as hell.

"Are there any clues or conclusions?" Su Qian had to change the topic.

"Well," Xiaolu looked serious and shared the latest news with him, "The murderer is a Metagross, whose strength is estimated to be at the excellence level to the extraordinary level. Judging from the shoe prints found, the trainer should be about 170 tall.

A man of average weight."

The information about the murderer comes from the results of on-site investigation and autopsy.

The final form of the quasi-god! Su Qian was slightly surprised, and suddenly felt that he was not unfairly defeated by his strange power.

"There are two main follow-up investigation directions. One is to investigate all trainers who own Metagross and ask them about their whereabouts on July 25th." Xiaolu raised two fingers, "The second is to track down those who were

Regarding the flow of the kidnapped mini dragons and other grass elves, it is uncertain when they will flow into the black market."

No wonder the three trainers were let go in the afternoon. They didn't have such a strong Metagross at all.

“Sounds like these are long-term jobs?”

Xiaolu bit her lip and said, "Well, Yu Chu judged that it would be difficult to find clues in the short term. No one in the Dark Gray City has Metagross at all."

After hearing the news, Su Qian felt a little melancholy. Among the grass elves that were kidnapped, there was also his younger brother Liu Frog.

That guy was originally stupid and the weakest in strength. He had been staying in the nursery and ended up encountering this kind of thing.

Hey, if it was as clever as Five Frogs, it would have left long ago and it would be fine.

Recalling every moment of getting along with those Bulbasaur boys, Su Qian suddenly remembered an anomaly buried deep in his memory - where did the pair of sunglasses Wu Frog gave him come from?
