The weather is very good today.

The huge sun hanging high above the green city seems to be blooming with its last heat energy at the end of summer.

Zhao Guangli took off his windbreaker, put on his military uniform, and started clocking in to work.

The duty of the sergeant major is to monitor the area to which he belongs in the inner city, which is generally the entire area of ​​Jinanohara in the inner city of Green City.

The actual work is to stay well at the military headquarters in the inner city.

As for so-called anomalies and disturbances, Gadling's night watchmen will take action.

"Isn't this just like mixed wages?"

Zhao Guangli looked at the sunshine above his head, feeling a little helpless.

"Isn't this great? You don't have to do anything every day, and you can get a monthly salary of five contribution points." Su Lin squinted his eyes, and the sun shone on it.

As a demon, he should instinctively hate the sun, but Sulin is an exception.

"The contribution points of the military department are very valuable. Even outside the military department, they can be regarded as hard currency of general equivalent."

"Yeah?"

Zhao Guangli raised his eyebrows.

At the gate of the station, several sentries followed standard military etiquette when they saw Zhao Guangli approaching.

This made Zhao Guangli, who had become a monk halfway, a little embarrassed.

"Don't be nervous, kid."

Su Lin waved lightly with his tentacles.

Zhao Guangli coughed twice and carried the black box towards the interior of the station.

but……

Entering the station, the atmosphere today didn't seem quite right.

The entire military department was in a state of silence.

Cui Sheng and Dana sat at the conference table with serious expressions.

There were dozens of soldiers wearing military uniforms around, and each of them had an extraordinary aura flowing around them.

After seeing Zhao Guangli pushing open the door with a black box, everyone respectfully performed a military salute.

In a place like the military headquarters, combat power is almost equal to everything.

A newcomer who can be indistinguishable from Dana Delany is no longer a newcomer, but a real sergeant major.

"What's going on? There's something not right about the atmosphere today."

Zhao Guangli sat next to Dana and asked softly.

Dana put her finger between her eyebrows: "Don't you know?"

"Know what?"

Zhao Guangli was a little puzzled.

After the banquet ended last night, he and Su Lin found a hotel to stay.

According to the MILF proprietress of the hotel, the hotel is only a three-minute walk from the route of the cruising steamship, and demand has long been in short supply.

If it weren't for Zhao Guangli's military uniform, the landlady would probably not be willing to rent it to Zhao Guangli at that price.

"At last night's party...someone died."

Before Dana could answer, Cui Sheng spoke directly.

He walked past the huge conference table and sat on the main seat, his face solemn.

"While Mr. Bai Ge is away, Cui Sheng has been entrusted with full authority to act as the agent for the military department in many matters in the inner city." Dana said in a low voice.

"It's right at the Qi Family Mansion, above Qi Mingyuan's birthday banquet."

Zhao Guangli's eyes moved.

The Presbyterian Court belongs to the powerful class in Ludu. Would a murder happen under such circumstances?

No, if it was an ordinary murder, why would the military get involved?

Looking at Cui Sheng's expression, Zhao Guangli felt a little strange.

"The list of dead persons was sent over by the night watchman half an hour ago."

"The third young lady of the Zuo family of the Presbytery, Zuo Ye."

"Also, at that time, we were responsible for the security of the entire Qi family mansion, and the entire Qi family's team of extraordinary professionals."

Cui Sheng's face was grim: "Thirteen trainee-level professionals, and..."

"A formal professional."

As soon as this statement came out, the entire conference room was instantly in an uproar.

The official level is dead!

How is that possible!

Even in Green City, the official level is undoubtedly the top level of combat power, and they are not the kind of weaklings who are killed at will.

"Who is the official?" Dana clapped her fingers.

"Qi Mingyuan's nephew, a formal knight, usually sits in the ancestral home of the Qi family."

"When did it happen?"

Dana said coldly.

Cui Sheng looked at the notepad in his hand: "According to the night watchman, the time of death should be around 11 o'clock last night, and the error will not exceed half an hour."

"At that time..." Dana's eyes wandered: "At that time, Sergeant Major Zhao Guangli and I were at the banquet."

"We didn't notice anything."

"Only formals can kill formals. But how can two formals fight without making any sound?"

"Unless the difference in strength between the two is too big."

Cui Sheng nodded: "Yes, this is the strangest point."

"The life-saving ability of a formal knight is extremely powerful. A knight who can reach this level is fully armed, and it is almost impossible to die in a short period of time. Moreover, he can remain undiscovered in a place like the Qi Family Mansion.

"

"How did those guys die?"

Zhao Guangli said.

"Long sword."

Cui Sheng lowered his head and saw several bloody photos on his notepad: "All the dead professionals were completely dismembered."

"The person who did it was extremely cruel and ruthless."

"And there are long and thin blood marks on the body caused by some kind of long sword. On the body of the formal knight, there are also scars similar to stab wounds..."

The air in the military conference room seemed a bit cold.

"That kind of scar is very distinctive, it seems to be..."

"Western sword."

Western sword?

"The most common use of that kind of weapon is as a prop for swordsmanship performances by nobles in the center of mankind. It has very little lethality. Will anyone really use that kind of weapon?"

Dana frowned.

Things like Western swords have basically been equated with decorations in today's Tiandong Alliance.

"This is the conclusion reached by the night watchman," Cui Sheng said.

Zhao Guangli was a little stunned.

Western sword?

Zhao Guangli suddenly remembered that when he first entered Ludu, he had seen people carrying Western swords.

She is a very cute and gentle girl.

It's probably just a coincidence.

Zhao Guangli put this thought out of his head for the time being.

"The strange thing is that the professional team responsible for the security of the Qi family at that time all died, but... it was just that they all died."

"The person who did it seemed like he was just here to kill people."

"After killing the person, he didn't do anything and just left."

Dana frowned: "There are still such people?"

"Yes, this is the strangest thing." Cui Sheng raised his head slightly: "The night watchmen originally thought it was the behavior of the [Top Ten] soldiers, so they directly reported it to our military department, but according to the practices of the top ten soldiers in the central agency

, last night, no one should be able to leave the Qi family mansion alive."

"But no matter what, the existence that can kill formal-level professionals must still be active in Green City. This is an undoubted fact."

"Although Lieutenant Bai Ge is still outside the city, Major Shen He has not left the inner city. If necessary, you can apply for a full-level professional from the station outside the city. Naturally, there is no need to worry about combat power."

Cui Sheng looked serious: "The night watchman has dispatched four teams to strengthen patrols starting today. After all, the Ten Thousand Blooms Festival will start tomorrow."

"I suspect that people in the dark want to attack the Ten Thousand Blooms Festival."

"Dana and Sergeant Major Zhao Guangli, starting from today, you will also cooperate with the night watch organization in operations."

"receive."

Dana and Zhao Guangli performed a military salute.

Zhao Guangli tapped his fingers on the table, feeling something strange.

Is the target of the person in the dark really the Ten Thousand Blooms Festival?

This so-called Green City celebration?

Or...
