The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

"Why am I not an officer on the island? I am also one of the police officers, and I also..." During the task assignment, Solander heard that he was the only one who was not included in the list of security officers in charge of Emerald Island. He couldn't help questioning the special commissioner of the Ministry of Education who made the plan.

"This is an order. You don't need to give you any reason. You just need to execute it." The member of the Ministry of Education who was in charge of assigning the task unceremoniously interrupted the other party's questioning, and then said with a businesslike look: " You have had several contacts with the owner of Belmont Manor before, and you are more familiar with those two than we are. Wherever you go, you will not cause too much resentment from them. Now the safety of those two is related to a series of issues of the federal government. In the follow-up plan, they can’t have any problems, so not only will they send you to protect the work, but we will also send a few people to assist you in the work. This matter is more important than the Baptist Church, and there is no room for loss. I leave it to you, completely It's about your abilities."

Of course Solander knew that the so-called reasons the other party said were all nonsense, but she couldn't refute them, and knew that even if she refuted, she couldn't change the ending, so she could only turn around and leave, and went to Belmont Manor as ordered.

After Solander left, a member of the Ministry of Education who had just been dispatched in the office approached him and asked curiously, "Boss, what is this Solander from? You actually assigned her such a special job?" A security mission, doesn't that seem like your personality?"

"Her surname is Rebek, and she is originally from Kuinan Province." The head of the Ministry of Education and Culture looked at his overly curious subordinate, and said in a flat tone.

"Oh!" The staff of the Ministry of Education and Culture immediately showed a dazed look, and did not continue to ask any more questions, but they couldn't help muttering in their hearts, and said, "Aren't these young masters and ladies too busy, one by two ran to Come to our territory and fight for merit with us little people."

For those who intend to make a career in the federal government, they must more or less know those people and forces within the federal government that cannot be offended, because some people and forces offend not only the loss of civil servants It is even more likely to lose their jobs, and even their lives. Among these people and forces that cannot be offended, the Rebek family in the province of Quinan is definitely one of the top few.

The Rebaker family is not the founding father family of the Otter Federation. Their family and the Quinan Province joined the Ott Federation after the founding of the country. Because of the timing of joining and the strength of the Quinan Province itself, the The Oeter Federation can only become the governor of the Quinan Province in name, but its actual controller is the Rebek family. For this reason, the Quinan Province is the only special autonomous province in the Ott Federation, and it is also the It is the only local government with a governorship, and this governorship has always been held by the Rebeck family. From every aspect, the entire province of Quinan is considered the private property of the Rebeker family.

The ruling power, military power, and civilian power of such a powerful family controller in the province of Kuinan are almost equivalent to the king. It's too late for the province's various rights, and the Rebeker family will not reveal any flaws to the other party.

Although the Oeter Federation has repeatedly made some things against the province of Quinan overtly and secretly, the final effect has not been satisfactory, and they can't send a large number of troops into the Oeter Federation. In the end, they can only fight with Rebek The family conducted a series of secret negotiations. As for the content of these negotiations, no one else knows except the parties involved.

However, after the agreement was reached, the Rebeck family and other major powers and families in the province of Quinan would send some family members to serve in the Daoute federal government every year. Descendants, although the people in the Ministry of Education and Culture don't know why Solander left home thousands of miles to work as a police detective in Beiruk City, a place that has no connection with Quinan Province, but they know very well that if If something happened to Solander under their hands, even if Solander's status in the Rebeck family is not high, they will still be held accountable.

Therefore, the people who led the Education Department decided to put Solander in a safe place, lest the other party encounter any danger walking around, and he would not be able to explain to the higher authorities.

Solander is actually very clear about the thoughts of the Ministry of Education, and she is not surprised by this. Ever since she went to the capital to use her surname to obtain special information, she has already thought of the problems that will arise after her identity is exposed, but let her What she didn't expect was that things came so quickly. She was under surveillance before even finishing a single case. This really made her feel a little helpless and annoyed.

It's just that no matter how helpless and angry she is, it's useless, but she's not going to give up just like that. On the surface, she will go to Belmont Manor to take charge of the security work as ordered, secretly looking for opportunities to investigate the Baptist Church by herself, and wait for the investigation After the results came out, she was trying to find a way to use what she had found in the investigation to obtain some conditions for herself.

In fact, in the office just now, she almost shared some useful information she had investigated in the capital, which involved the Baptist Church, the missing Monte family, and Rudolf Hans. She was surprised by the things she investigated, but she didn't expect that the three would be connected. At this moment, she was also glad that she had held back just now and didn't reveal these information, otherwise, it might be difficult for her to find a chance to make her comeback.

From the information she found, it was found that the Monte family had actually known Rudolf Hans before building the Monte Manor, and the relationship seemed to be good. Si painted a portrait, and that portrait has been kept in Rudolf Hans' private estate. Later, as the estate was searched, the things were also sent to the reserve of a special department of the Federation. Where is she? I saw that painting.

As for why the two met, it would involve the Baptist Church, because the two met at a preaching meeting of the Baptist Church, and it was detailed from the notes left by Rudolf Hans that they could not attend the meeting. The content of the post-conversation is just a pity that the words used to record those content are all filled with some incomprehensible mysterious symbols.

In addition, she also checked the evangelistic meetings where Rudolf Hans and the head of the Monte family met, all of which were hosted by the same evangelizing bishop, and what is even more strange is that there is no such name in all the materials. The name of the preacher.

At first, Solander thought it was just because the government had not collected all the information, so she used her network to obtain the sermon records of the Baptist Church, but found that even the records of the Baptist Church did not include sermons Who the bishop is is just left blank.

In this way, she couldn't help but suspect that there might be some deeper secrets, and the investigation might return to the disappearance case of the Monte family that she had originally chosen.

After Solander left the underground office of the city government, she went directly to Belmont Manor. She planned to meet Leo and Sylvia without making any preparations, and expressed her decision to take over the security of the manor.

In her opinion, any normal person will think that the decision she proposed is rude and crazy, at least let her go, and at worst throw her out, and no matter what the situation is, she wants it, because she She could just use this as an excuse to give herself enough time to do the investigation, and when the city government came forward to obtain the consent of Leo and Sylvia to take over the security work, she would go back to work as normal.

However, what she never expected was that when she came to Belmont Manor, she met Leo and Sylvia, who had just recovered from a serious illness. She explained her purpose and waited for the two to ring the bell to let the security personnel of the manor throw her out. When, but heard an unexpected and most unwilling to hear the answer.

Sylvia nodded and said, "Okay! You can be our personal security guard and follow us and my wife at all times to protect our safety."

"Huh?" Solander was stunned, not knowing what to say.

Sylvia then picked up the bell on the table, shook it, and when the steward arrived, she ordered: "Change into suitable clothes for Detective Solander, I don't want to board the Belluk City tomorrow." Headlines, getting out-of-town rich people have privileges, city police reduced to private security headlines."

"Wait, wait! Why did you agree? This..." The housekeeper, who was stopped by Solander, raised his hand, and said with some quotations: "This is unreasonable! How can you agree?"

"Why is it unreasonable?" Sylvia smiled and said, "Since the city government is willing to spend manpower and material resources to protect the safety of our couple, why should we refuse? What you say is unreasonable is nothing more than that we will be punished by the city government." People are under surveillance, no one would want to live under surveillance, right?"

"Yes, yes!" Solander nodded.

Sylvia smiled and said: "But you seem to have overlooked a question, that is, can you really monitor our couple?"

"Uh..." Solander didn't know how to answer for a moment.

Although the outside rumors about Leo and Sylvia are all saying that they are real ladies and gentlemen, and all the attention is focused on their wealth and personal charm, they ignore that this couple is two people. Came to the Oeter Federation from other countries, and then created a career in a short period of time, and even began to influence the political direction of the Oeter Federation. How could it be possible for these two magical people not to have all other abilities, such as self-protection, Or against the enemy and so on.

So when Sylvia said these words, Solander didn't find them ridiculous, but thought they might be true. As for how Sylvia and Leo could make them unable to Being monitored is not clear.

Before Solander could think about what to do, Sylvia continued: "You should change your clothes first and get used to your status, and you may have to accompany Leo and me to Emerald Island in two days. "

"In two days? Go to Emerald Island?" Solander suddenly realized something when he heard the words, looked at the couple in surprise, and asked, "Are you two planning to participate in the preaching activities of the Baptist Church?"

Sylvia nodded and said, "We are a little curious about the Baptist Church. After all, its teachings are different from those of the religions I know, so I want to go to the sermon and see what they are saying."

After hearing Sylvia's explanation, Solander didn't think too much about it, because it was exactly what she wanted. She just missed the mission of Emerald Island, but she didn't expect that she would fight with Emerald Island again at Sylvia's place. She was connected with the mission, and this time, those people from the Ministry of Education should have no reason to exclude her from the mission.

Thinking of this, Solander no longer resisted being the security guard for Leo and Sylvia, and went to the changing room of the villa under the leadership of the housekeeper to change clothes.

After Solander left, Leo looked at Sylvia in confusion, and asked, "Why do you make her a personal security guard? She will get in our way."

"Although it's in the way, it won't cause too much trouble." Sylvia smiled and said, "Even if we reject him, the city government will definitely send other people over. After all, our important new opponent It goes without saying that they will not allow us to be in any danger, at least until all their equipment is replaced. In this case, instead of letting some unpleasant people dangle in front of our eyes, it is better to let Solander, who has already It's better for someone who has met several times to take this position." She paused again and added: "Besides, she has a smell."

"Taste?" Leo looked at Sylvia suspiciously, then thought about it, and said, "Are you talking about her ability? Judging from the energy fluctuations on her body, the ability should not be very strong, and it seems It's an auxiliary ability."

"No." Sylvia shook her head and said, "It's the smell, the smell of the abyss I smelled on her body."

Leo didn't think it was Sylvia's illusion, and he didn't think Sylvia was wrong in her judgment. It's just that Leo didn't see anything weirder in Solander, so the only thing that could explain it was the random With the promotion of Sylvia's bloodline completed, her sensitivity to abyssal things has far exceeded Leo's spiritual net and other abilities.

"Is she like you?" Leo asked again.

"Perhaps!" Sylvia suddenly smiled and said, "Perhaps my guess about exalting the world is right."

Leo retorted: "This is just an example, maybe this world has been invaded by the abyss before."

Sylvia suddenly responded with great certainty: "Impossible! This world has never been invaded by the abyss, I can be sure."

Seeing Sylvia's affirmative expression, Leo didn't ask any more questions, because he guessed that the reason Sylvia gave such an affirmative answer might be related to her current ability. He wasn't going to ask for details if Ya didn't volunteer.
