Chapter 105: We Need to Elect an Undercover AgentChapter 105: We Need to Elect an Undercover Agent
"Is there finally a clue? Tell me, I hope your clue can help me..."
Evan did not expect that Rahal had really investigated the matter of Tower of Heaven.
But speaking of which, he had used the power of the Magic Council to investigate the Tower of Heaven incident for more than three months, and it was time to make some progress.
Therefore, when Evan heard that Rahal claimed to have investigated the clues of the Dark Guild related to the Tower of Heaven, he immediately looked at Rahal and asked.
"Captain Evan, in fact, according to my investigation..."
After Rahal heard Evan's words, the corners of his mouth curled into a smile. It seemed that he was very confident in the information he had gathered. He gently pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose and prepared to tell Evan about the information he had investigated in the past few days.
"Too despicable. Rahal, shouldn't you wait for me..."
Looking at the angry expression of Rahal who had directly reported the information, he interrupted Rahal and planned to have a good talk with him about who should report the information to Evan.
"Woo..."
However, before he could finish speaking, his mouth was blocked by the bread that suddenly flew over.
"Keith, eat your bread. We can talk after you finish eating."
"Rahal, continue to report..."
Evan sat in front of the desk, raised her hand and stuffed the remaining two pieces of bread into Keith's mouth, blocking the other party's 'chattering' mouth, and then turned to look at Rahal's order.
"As you command..."
"In fact, according to our investigation, there has been a breakthrough in the Dark Guild that you said was building a tower and reviving Zeref under the banner of..."
Rahal smiled smugly when he saw Keith whose mouth was blocked by Evan. He knew that Head Captain Evan was more optimistic about him, Keith... an idiot who only knew how to fight.
"According to our scouts, we have seen the whereabouts of the demonic cult in this direction recently..."
"If the target of the demonic cult is the children, as well as the coolies who build the paradise, in my ignorance, I think they might attack. This village, this place, and this village..."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAs he spoke, he took out a map and placed it in front of Evan. Then, he drew out a few villages that the Dark Guild might attack.
"So that's how it is..."
"Then arrange it in advance in these villages. When the Tower of Heaven's Dark Guild arrives, we will catch all the members of the paradise cult that will harm the continent."
Evan casually glanced at the map that Rahal presented. He immediately sat up from his seat, his eyes shining. His goal was very clear, and he would catch the paradise in one fell swoop.
"It can't be done..."
Rahal looked at Evan who stood up from her seat and shook his head.
"Huh?"
Evan frowned after hearing what Rahal said.
"Captain Evan..."
Rahal looked at the frowning Evan and suddenly lowered his voice.
"I suspect that there is a spy from the Magic Council. The reason is that every time we find a clue about the so-called paradise Magic Council, it will be inexplicably cut off..."
"The result of this investigation is that I sent the person I trusted. The Magic Council specialized in the Dark Guild investigation. The result of the investigation was directly notified to me the moment we got the result, and we did not report the system of the Magic Council..."
"In other words, the information this time, excluding my investigators, is only known to you in the entire Magic Council. I know, and the idiot who stole the information knows..."
"But if you go with great fanfare, I think it will be easy to alert the enemy."
"If the enemy spies in the Magic Council find out about this, the Magic Council will probably immediately shift their target. This way, all our efforts in the past few months will be wasted!"
Rahal frowned. In fact, he had found traces of the Tower of Heaven of the Dark Guild several times, but every time, because of various 'coincidences', they would not let the people of the Dark Guild escape, but the speed of the review of the Magic Council was too slow. By the time they arrived at the scene, the actions of the Dark Guild had already ended.
"I understand..."
Evan frowned after hearing what Rahal said. The other party's words were somewhat reasonable, just like what Rahal said. If they went over with great fanfare and were discovered by the spies sent by the Magic Council, then their efforts would probably be wasted.
As for the matter of the Dark Guild placing spies in the Magic Council, the probability of this was not low. No, to be more precise, this was something that the 2nd Guild Master, Precht, and the former director of the Bureau of Magical Development, Brain, could do.
Moreover, according to the original, Precht directly placed the spy he had planted in the Magic Council to the level of a member of the councillor. The position of the spy in the Magic Council would not be very low, and he might even be one of the members of the Magic Council.
If that was the case, with the Magic Council as a backer, it was no wonder that the news of the Tower of Heaven could not reach Evan. It was probably all stopped by the councillor with clever means, right?
"Rahal, help me send someone to keep an eye on the members of the Magic Council. I suspect that the spy of the Tower of Heaven is a certain councillor of the Magic Council."
Thinking of this, Evan directly looked at Rahal's order.
"Keep an eye on councillor..."
After Rahal heard Evan's words, he was stunned. He did not expect that Evan would actually dare to give him such an order. This was truly a disgraceful order.
"What? Are you afraid?"
Evan looked at the panic-stricken Rahal and asked.
"No! Rahal is willing to serve captain!"
After listening to Evan's words, Rahal shook his head repeatedly. Although Evan was much younger than Rahal, Rahal never dared to underestimate Evan. In fact, after Evan led their Custody Enforcement Unit to sweep through nearly half of the continent's Dark Guild, Evan was like a god-like man in the eyes of Rahal, the person he longed for.
"En, okay. Don't worry and do it. I will bear all the responsibility afterwards."
Evan looked at Rahal and smiled with satisfaction. Anyway, he did not intend to stay here for a long time. Even if he made a mistake, the spy of Precht was not a senator. At most, he would just resign after dealing with the theme park incident.
"No! Your subordinate is willing to bear all responsibilities with captain."
After listening to Evan's words, Rahal shook his head. He had already agreed with Evan in his heart. How could he let the person he longed for take the responsibility? The tragedy of the former chief of the Custody Enforcement Unit was enough to be staged once.
"Well..."
Evan did not explain anything after listening to Rahal. He just nodded slightly.
"Then it is the matter of these villages. First of all, we can't make a big move. Secondly, we don't know when the people of the Tower of Heaven will make a move. In other words, someone has to be stationed in the village for a long time, undercover, and not too conspicuous..."
Evan looked at the map on the table and fell into deep thought.
"If an adult suddenly appears in the village now, it will inevitably alert the enemy. So I suggest that this person should not be more than fifteen years old. Of course, the younger the better."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"As you know, the Dark Guild has been capturing children who are more than ten years old and below. We just need to arrange for a child to be in the village that the Dark Guild attacked and then follow the children that were kidnapped. Then, we can easily sneak into the enemy's headquarters and catch them all in one fell swoop..."
At this time, Rahal seemed to have thought of something. He gently pushed his reflective glasses and whispered to Evan.
"Yes, yes, age does need to be considered. Is there a master in the Custody Enforcement Unit who has camouflage magic?"
Evan nodded slightly after hearing what Rahal said. Just like what Rahal said, they sent people who were undercover in the village. It was best to be a child, but it was absolutely impossible to send a real child. Therefore, it was best to send a master of camouflage magic to be undercover. This could protect the safety of the children in the village and also could be undercover to the headquarters of the Dark Guild. It was also the moment of the Tower of Heaven that they informed Evan and the others in time.
"I'm sorry, Captain Evan. There is no such person in our Custody Enforcement Unit. Although there is such a talent in the appraisal hall, it is inevitable that we will alert the enemy."
Rahal looked at Evan and continued to explain.
"If so, it will be a little troublesome. After all, we can't find a child who is really in his teens to spy."
Evan felt a headache. This way, it seemed to be a dead end again.
"Captain Evan, actually, there is no need for us to look for children. There is also no need to look for an expert in disguise magic. Aren't we already there? Is there only one child here?"
Rahal suddenly thought of something. His glasses reflected light as he looked at Evan.
"Huh?"
"Why are you all looking at me like that"
Evan raised his eyebrows when he heard Rahall's words. He looked at Rahal and Keith who were silently watching him and had a bad feeling in his heart.
At this moment, after eating the bread, Keith muttered as he looked at Evan and said, "Captain, aren't you in line with the conditions of being kidnapped? Why don't you go undercover in the village yourself?"
"... "
Evan fell silent after hearing what Keith said. If Keith hadn't said it, he would have forgotten that he was only twelve or three years old, which was exactly the age of being kidnapped.
Therefore...
A week later...
Rosemary Village, one of the targets that the Dark Guild might take action against...
Evan had disguised himself as a village that was attacked by the Dark Guild and escaped, mixing in with the children who had escaped with the adults and begged.
