Magic Underachiever
Chapter 91 Common Interests
The assassination of the former Director of the Special Security Bureau shocked the empire, and the Empire did not dare to promote and appoint a new director within the Special Security Bureau. Instead, it sent Anne Whitehead, who had a strong background, ability, and loyalty, to Saroyan.
The reason is that the former head of the Security Bureau died in his office... from poisoning.
In the hinterland of the Special Security Bureau, which is protected by layers of protection, it is definitely much more difficult to assassinate the boss of the Security Bureau than to assassinate him outside. If this assassination incident was a demonstration by an organization to the empire and demonstrated its assassination capabilities, then someone should publicly declare responsibility for the assassination incident.
However, no one or organization issued a statement after the director's death.
This shows that assassinating the former head of the Security Bureau is not about flexing muscles, but... someone has to kill him. "Either you die or I die." He can't wait for a moment.
The former Director of the Security Bureau must have obtained information that could kill someone, and this person's power has extended into the Special Security Bureau and can easily control the life and death of the Director of the Security Bureau.
The Imperial Guard General Bureau judged that someone in the Special Security Bureau had rebelled, and it was not one... Otherwise, their director was assassinated, and they would not be able to find any clues. The Special Security Bureau does this kind of dirty work. They are all experts... They don't know how their director died, which explains the entire assassination process: some are responsible for doing it, some are responsible for covering, some are responsible for eliminating traces, and some are responsible for the assassination. Misleading the direction of the investigation...
It is not ruled out that most of the people in the Special Security Bureau are still loyal to the empire, but there must be a well-organized small group within them, leaving the entire security bureau with no one they can trust. The General Administration of Garrison can only appoint another director of the security bureau. I hope Anne Can clean up this mess.
However, on Anne's first day in office, the Azure Cathedral was attacked by evil cultists and demons. Then another incident broke out in the Azure Cathedral... about possessing super heavy weapons and silver wings.
Marcellus Council and Saroyan City Hall danced so happily again that Anne couldn't help but connect all the clues in her hands.
What intelligence did the former head of the Security Service discover? Making some people feel compelled to kill him immediately.
Who are the traitors from the Security Bureau who killed him? Why are they willing to take huge risks and assassinate important figures in the empire?
The excessive heavy weapons and silver wings of the Azure Cathedral would not have been transported into the center of Saroyan without the cover of the Special Security Bureau. What role do these security bureau traitors play in this process?
What does Azure Cathedral want to do with so many weapons? How many are there?
If this batch of weapons is related to the Marcellus Parliament, then the excess number of weapons in the Azure Cathedral is definitely not the ones they are showing off now. There must be more prohibited weapons in its arsenal.
If this inference is true...then the large-scale arms smuggling cannot be covered up by the Special Security Bureau. The most comprehensive and secretive way for weapons to enter Saroyan is by sea. As for the ship that smuggles arms on a large scale, it is impossible not to be discovered without the naval cover of the Azure Corps.
Anne told Daliang everything she knew. For Anne, the entire situation in Saroyan is "there is no enemy among us, and there is an enemy among us." Originally, she still had the Azure Corps at her disposal, and relied on the Imperial Army to control the overall situation while finding out the truth. As a result... even the Azure Corps is no longer reliable. Some of them may have been corrupted. This is why Anne applied for the First Division of the Royal Fusiliers to come to Saroyan...
But it’s up to Anne herself to find out.
Robin and Eric both followed these ancient heroes. The General Garrison's strength in Saroyan was weak, and the strength that Anne could rely on was really too little.
So she thought of this power that no one expected. A powerful, mysterious hero from the ancient era of magic who has no interest disputes with this world.
In order to establish direct contact with these ancient heroes, Anne found a breakthrough from Brown. If she was Brown's fiancée, then she could date Brown and meet his friends.
Annie didn't hide too much from Daliang about this incident. She told everything she knew. In Saroyan, she had no way out and had to do everything possible to win this force to her side.
"This is the difficulty I face and the situation in Saroyan, I don't know who I can trust here, but I feel that none of us want a war here, so we have a basis for cooperation."
The emergence of war in Saroyan is indeed not what Daliang wants to see.
Going to school is the same thing even if it's not in Saroyan, it's the same in another city or in another magic school. But he had just invested all his money in Saroyan real estate.
Sell...it will definitely not be sold now. After all, no one dares to be a takeover at this time.
That's four hundred thousand gold pounds!
well……
I thought that after settling the matter between the evil cultists and the demons, I could just sit back and watch the real estate I bought at bargain prices increase in value, but I didn't expect that Saroyan would have a more serious crisis than the demons.
It’s all caused by not understanding the world.
But the money has already been invested, so we can’t just watch them go down the drain like this?
Daliang asked Anne: "What do you want me to do for you? To help you uncover the traitors in the Security Bureau, or to make the Marcellus Parliament disappear?"
For Anne, this is a very positive signal. She said, "The traitors of the Security Bureau and the Marcellus Council are only the surface of this muddy water. The deepest stinky mud cannot be dug out, and the water is still muddy. I came to Saroyang to dig mud. And as long as I still have a chance to reverse the situation in Saroyang, I will not let non-imperial forces intervene.
This is the honor of the empire and my dignity.
Master Liang, please forgive my stubbornness. You don't have to do anything now. I just want to get a promise from you..."
"What promise?"
"If the situation in Saroyang is completely out of control... I ask you to help me stabilize the situation."
Da Liang did not answer immediately.
This is both a request and a test.
Annie wants to see if this group of ancient heroes has the strength to control the city of Saroyang. If Daliang agrees to help stabilize the situation, it means that he can deal with the Imperial Army, the Special Security Bureau, the Marcellus Council, the Saroyang City Hall, the Azure Church and all the forces in Saroyang at the same time.
"I'm sorry..." Da Liang rejected Annie's request very straightforwardly. He said, "You keep saying... we have the same interests in Saroyang, but you refuse me to provide direct help to avoid the war.
When you seek cooperation, you are still wary of me, afraid of inviting a wolf into the house and letting Saroyang add another competing force.
You are not sincere, and I will not make any promises to you.
What I want is... Saroyang to be stable before the end of the college holiday, what I want is the rise in housing prices, and what I want is customers to fill my stores that are about to open.
You and I are pursuing different things, so...
I decided to go it alone."
Introducing a book "I Have a Group of Earth Players", a work by an old author with a new vest. Although it is still in the new book period, the quality is definitely no problem. It is highly recommended.
