The Mystery:The Witch and the Scourge

"Has Megoos been found?" Dunn asked immediately.

Miss Dai Li couldn't help but smile and said:

"When I first met my fiancée, she only cared about work. It seems that your husband will be very incompetent in the future!"

Seeing her relaxed and joking tone, Dunn's tense mood relaxed a lot. He motioned for Dai Li to sit down, and then continued to ask:

"Do you have any mission when you come back this time?"

"Without any mission, I am considered idle now." Miss Dai Li unceremoniously picked up the half cup of coffee on the table and took a sip, then looked directly at Dunn and said:

"Your Excellency Sesima suggested that I return to Backlund and wait until the incident involving the 'True Creator's descendants is over before returning to Tingen."

Dunn's eyes were firm and his breathing was not obviously rapid. He was obviously not surprised by this result. After a moment of silence, he asked:

"What's your decision?"

Miss Daly said softly, "I want to know your decision now."

Dunn pondered for two seconds, raised his eyes and said, "I agree, you can ask for leave and come back after the danger in Tingen is over."

"Okay, then I'll leave now." Dai Li stood up and deliberately walked away without looking back.

"Wait a minute..." Dunn was startled by her unhesitating action and hurriedly straightened up to greet her.

Miss Dai Li snickered, then straightened her face and turned around and asked:

"Is there anything else? If I don't leave, I won't be able to catch the steam train back to Backlund."

Dunn was a little at a loss. He left his desk, walked to Dai Li, and finally took out a finely crafted ring from his pocket and said:

"I originally planned to bring it out at the wedding, but after thinking about it, it would be more appropriate to give it to you now, just in case..."

"Nothing unexpected!" Miss Daly interrupted, opening her slightly red eyes, and then pressed her lips to Dunn's mouth.

After a long time, their lips parted. Dai Li gently put the ring on her finger. The size was just right and she said with a bright smile:

"Does it look good?"

"Good-looking..." Dunn replied softly.

At this time, the office door was forcefully pushed open from the outside, and the "uninvited guest" Klein barged in with an obvious look of solemnity on his face. Regardless of Dunn and Dai Li's surprise, he said in a deep voice:

"Megoos is here, she is very emotionally unstable, and Leonard is dealing with her."

Dunn regained his former composure and made a decisive decision:

"Hold Megoos as much as possible. It is best to lead her behind Chanis Gate and trap her temporarily."

Then, he looked at Dai Li beside him: "Use the messenger to immediately notify Deacon Sesima and urge her to rush to the Blackthorn Security Company immediately."

"Okay." Miss Dai Li agreed, quickly walked to the desk and wrote quickly, and immediately summoned her own messenger.

"Klein, you can go behind the Chanis Gate and take out a highly offensive sealed object. Which one you choose depends on your own situation. The same goes for Leonard and others."

Dunn continued to order in an orderly manner: "In an emergency, I have the right to use the 'Ashes of Saint Selina'. If necessary, I can try to eliminate the 'son of the true creator' to prevent its premature birth and cause greater casualties."

"I understand, Captain." Klein said. He was about to turn around and leave, but he almost collided with Leonard who was pressing hard. The latter said urgently:

"It's too late, Captain. We must deal with Megoos and the baby in her belly immediately. Otherwise, in less than five minutes, the 'Son of the True Creator' will be born, and the entire Tingen City will suffer huge losses. This is not to let

Something that can be avoided by evacuating the surrounding people.”

Dunn frowned slightly and asked extremely seriously:

"Are you sure the situation has deteriorated to this extent?"

Leonard was unusually serious: "I'm sure."

Klein stopped when he heard this and turned to look at Dunn, waiting for the captain's next order.

"The news has been passed on. It seems that we will fight side by side." Miss Dai Li stepped forward, stood next to Dunn, and said seriously.

Dunn turned his head and glanced at Dai Li, his eyes full of tenderness. After a flash, he looked back at Klein and the two of them, and commanded firmly:

"Go to Chanis Gate and choose the sealed object you need. We are lucky enough to be able to face the gods today, but even if they are gods, they must not harm civilians before the Nighthawks of Tingen die."

"Yes, Captain." Klein said in unison, then turned and left.

The two walked together in silence, and the stairs leading to the underground Chanis Gate were very dark.

As if making a difficult decision, Klein suddenly stopped and said in a deep voice:

"I'm going to the bathroom."

Leonard looked at him deeply and said, "Go back quickly."

Klein found a free room at random, took a deep breath, quickly took out candles and other ritual materials from his pocket, and lit them decisively.

"I!"

"Call in my name:"

"A spirit that wanders in illusion, a friendly creature that can be driven, a messenger that belongs exclusively to Louise Best."

The messenger, Miss Alice, immediately appeared in mid-air, staring directly at Klein. The atmosphere was quite strange.

Klein took out a piece of paper, held it up and said:

"Give this news to Louise."

Miss Alice seemed a little indifferent. Under Klein's doubtful gaze, she put away the note and disappeared.

Klein is a little more suspicious of Louise who may be a "witch" and dare not fully trust her, but at least she has not shown any obvious hostility, and her goodwill is obvious...

Azik is in Backlund, and he doesn't know how long it will take for "Goddess Sword" Sesima to return. The only helper Klein can find seems to be Louise. He would rather give it a try, because the situation cannot be worse than it is now.

Afterwards, he put out the candles and walked out of the room to find Leonard holding the sealed item numbered '2-105', the Blood Vessel Thief.

Leonard did not ask Klein why he did not go to the bathroom, but said in a solemn voice:

"Hopefully our secrets will help Tingen get through this crisis."

Klein reached out and held the "Sun Flame Charm" in his pocket. The warm feeling made him feel at ease, and he even responded with a smile:

"Like the captain said, at least we are about to confront a god head-on."

The two looked at each other and smiled, walked out of the underground, and saw Miss Daly and Captain Dunn.

Dunn was holding the "Ashes of St. Selena" in his hand with a serious expression. Miss Daly stood beside Dunn, surrounded by countless gray ghosts.

Several people walked towards the reception room of Blackthorn Security Company one step at a time, and saw Megoos who had almost lost his human appearance and had an unusually bulging belly.

Suddenly, an evil and penetrating cry sounded in my ears.
