The warden who guards the witches

Two days later, at night.

Aiden stood on the clock tower in the old town, looking at the abandoned dock below.

"That white-roofed bungalow is Polpo's office. He stays there every Saturday night to handle the accounts handed in by his territory." Veronica stood beside him and raised her finger to show him, "According to the informant's report, he is there now. There are about a dozen people in and outside the office..."

"The villain and supporting roles are in place." Aiden nodded and handed the cane to Veronica, "It's time for the protagonist to appear."

Unlike in the past, he did not wear a uniform today, but changed into a night outfit, and covered his whole body with a large hooded cloak.

"Is it really okay?" Veronica said worriedly.

"To be honest, I'm not completely sure whether the thing can be accomplished, but at least I can still ensure my own safety. Don't worry, Daly will help monitor the scene." Aiden shook the cat's eye ring on his hand, "She will tell you through the familiar if there is any situation, and then you can attack with the cavalry."

"I understand." Veronica nodded.

"Before going on stage, you have to put on makeup first."

As soon as the voice fell, Aiden began to use the ability of physical transformation.

The tingling sensation spread throughout his body, and his body shrank rapidly, and his height soon dropped to the position of Veronica's chest.

The limbs shrank proportionally, the body gradually became slender, but the face became slightly rounder, not as thin as before.

In just a few seconds, he turned himself into a child who looked only eleven or twelve years old, and his appearance was only slightly similar to the original.

After many times of practice, he has been able to use this ability more skillfully.

But for the time being, he still confirmed with Veronica: "How is it? There shouldn't be any flaws."

Not only the appearance, but even the voice has become consistent with the age corresponding to the appearance, not as deep as before.

Veronica stared at Aiden in a daze, and then silently raised a thumb.

"Veronica?" Aiden was a little confused by her reaction.

"Ah, sorry, sorry." Veronica suddenly came back to her senses, quickly took her hand back, and smiled awkwardly, "I think this transformation is perfect!"

"That's good." Aiden replied lightly.

This girl... Isn't she a shotacon?

"I'll go over, you watch here." Aiden took the mask and lantern hanging on the side and walked down the clock tower quickly.

At the abandoned dock, at the door of the Polpo office, two doormen were chatting idly.

At this time, one of them caught a glimpse of the approaching light.

"Hey, someone is coming." He immediately spoke to remind his companions.

"Who is it? Didn't the boss say there was a guest?" the other man said in confusion.

Although they noticed the uninvited guest, neither of them felt any sense of danger, because there was only one person walking towards them, and he looked a little short.

When the man approached slowly with a lantern, the two of them looked at each other subconsciously, and they both saw a bit of surprise in each other's eyes - this "guest" was not even as tall as their chests, and he was either a child or a dwarf.

What was even more strange was that the man was wearing a black cloak that was so long that it dragged on the ground, and he was wearing a black mask that was obviously larger than his face.

"Hey, what are you doing?" One of the younger brothers shouted at him.

"I'm looking for Mr. Polpo, can you take me to see him?" The mysterious man - Aiden answered.

"Child?" Hearing the other party's slightly childish voice, both of them were stunned.

One of them replied sternly: "This is not a place for little devils to play, get out!"

After saying that, he used the crowbar at hand to knock on the concrete floor of the dock to scare the other party.

"I want to find Mr. Polpo." Aiden was unmoved.

"Do you want to die?" The other man was impatient and was ready to walk over and kick the other party to make him retreat.

Occasionally, there will be such ignorant little devils who want to join the underworld, and then they don't know where to get the cadres' base from some gossip and come to recommend themselves.

Gangs occasionally recruit some 15 or 16-year-old thugs as thugs. These half-grown little devils are quite easy for gangs to use. They are simple-minded and do things without considering the consequences. When they are angry, they will draw their knives and kill. If they are given a little benefit and a few words, they can easily be deceived into risking their lives, but if they are caught, they can get a light sentence. It is perfect to use them as a scapegoat if something goes wrong.

But the kid in front of him was really too young, and from the strange outfit... his brain didn't seem normal either. He probably had some misunderstanding about the gang.

The most important thing was that Mr. Polpo had already climbed to a senior cadre of the Skull Gang. Now he was different from the past. The fact that he recruited low-level followers still alarmed him. The doorman was beaten lightly.

But the man took two steps with the crowbar and fell forward suddenly. He felt something strange suddenly grabbed his ankle.

He turned over subconsciously and looked at his feet, and screamed in fear.

The claw that grabbed his ankle was a dark claw that came out of his shadow.

But he didn't have time to shout twice before his voice was cut off - more black claws stretched out from the shadow, stuck his neck and hands and feet, and fixed him firmly to the ground.

Another doorman felt his brain exploded when he saw this scene. Although black magic is known to everyone in this world, it is strictly controlled. Ordinary people don’t have so many opportunities to witness this supernatural power.

Aiden didn’t give him a chance to recover from his fear. He summoned the claws of the shadow demon from his shadow and pressed him to the ground.

This kind of ordinary gangster, in fact, even if he didn’t use the shadow demon summoned by Daly, Aiden could easily deal with it himself, but Daly’s demon is obviously more effective, so it’s useless.

Aiden approached the two people who were forced to fall to the ground and threw a "coin" in front of them like giving alms to beggars: "Do you recognize this?"

The two tried to focus their eyes and found that it was a coin-sized copper badge with poppy flowers carved on it with delicate techniques. The badge exuded a faint and strange fragrance, as if it had been coated with some special potion.

Although not many people in the underworld have seen this thing with their own eyes, everyone has basically heard of it.

There is a group of skilled underworld killers who will use this token to prove their identity.

"The children of Mirujinu?" The two gatekeepers looked up in horror.

"I repeat, I am here to see Mr. Carlo Polpo, can you please show me the way?" Aiden said with a smile, "Don't worry, I'm not here to kill him, I'm here... to discuss business with him."
