Book of Gods and Demons

Chapter 21: 1 small step of growth

   At midnight, outside the gate of the Tulum Port Police Station, under a few street lamp poles, nearly a hundred men with live ammunition and swords hung around their waists gathered here.

   They were either leaning on the street light pole, or leaning on the outer wall of the police station, and there were more people sitting on the floor, playing cards with bright gas street lights, and more or less a few silver coins were placed in front of everyone.

   More than a dozen police officers mingled in the crowd, laughing and talking to them. Boxes of beautifully packaged cigarettes were handed between them. It was a good time. Obviously everyone was old friends.

   Joe followed Stein and walked out of the Navy Club. A group of people trot across the road and came to the entrance of the police station. The senior detectives greeted Stein and dispersed by themselves.

  As senior elites in the police station, these agents have their own connections, and their subordinates are also staffed. After being authorized, they can immediately enter the working state. Only Joe was a little unclear, so he still followed Stein's side.

   A group of smart guys gathered quickly and greeted Joe with a smile on their faces.

   More than a dozen police officers lowered their heads and smeared the soles of their sneaky feet, lest they would be caught by Stein and be lazy while on duty.

Joe waved to the family guards and lowered his head to ask Stein: "Godfather, I don't understand. The incident broke out on the 15th, but today, I feel that everyone is delaying time deliberately. Everyone is delaying time deliberately. ."

   "Two days, two whole days, just wasted like this?"

   Stein lit a cigarette, he spit out thick smoke, smiled and looked at the young man who called him the "Godfather". He is his own, so he doesn't mind passing on some experience to Joe.

"Two days were not wasted. The army, the police, and those..." Stein pointed to the row of four-wheeled carriages leaving quickly at the gate of the Navy Club: "Those who deal with conspiracies and tricks all day long. Guy, in these two days, they have been doing their best to track down the attacker that night."

"But the incident is too sensational. The port of Tulum suffered too much damage. The Imperial Capital will definitely keep an eye on this matter. The Imperial Capital must be given a clear, credible conclusion that can be confessed to the people of the Empire. Therefore, a special investigation team is necessary. of."

Stein clicked on Joe’s chest: "But, the special investigation team, you can’t enter the arena too early. You see, unlimited investigation power, this kind of power is the investigation team must have, but this kind of power allows everyone They are all very afraid."

   Joe seemed to understand something.

   "So, these two days? Including Longgust and Papathy fighting face-to-face, but also to fight for time..."

"Wiping your ass!" Stein spit on the ground rudely: "The Imperial Intelligence Headquarters, the Imperial Army Military Investigation Bureau, the Imperial Navy Overseas Hydrographic Survey Bureau, even the naval fleet in Tulum Harbor, even the Royal Naval Academy... …These two days are just to stay here and give them time to wipe their butts!"

   "If the special investigation team is formed two days ago, it will enter the arena strongly..."

   Stein touched his neck subconsciously, and said dryly, "Do you believe it? The next day, my head might be fed to the dog."

   "How many of the people involved this time can't see people? Don't say anything else, just say... How did the Rittal family's ocean-going fleet, nearly half of the artillery come from?"

   Joe frowned vigorously: "I heard my father said that it was...the scrap of the daily training of the Tulum Port Garrison."

  Stein laughed: "It's really croaking, 90% of the new scraps. Of course, the price of scraps is only a little more than 10% of the new guns, so they are scraps."

  Stein shrugged: "So, why is General Longgast, and the Rittal family so close friends?"

Cursing his lips, Stein sneered: "Furthermore, the Navy, the Welsh family's fleet, those artillery, there are also a large number of shells, flintlocks, Imperial Navy swords, and even the newly added Welsh family last year. A first-class cruiser'retired due to injury'!"

   "Crack, don't jump, oh, retired due to injury, good job!"

Taking a deep breath, and slowly exhaling a long green smoke, Stein said solemnly: "Joe, dear child, two days, two days of shirking, accusing each other, and all the quarrels, verbal abuse, and even It's a fight, it's everyone's tacit understanding."

"Wipe butt, two days, let everyone quickly wipe their butts. Two days, this is the limit that all parties can tolerate. If they can't handle these shady things in two days... Turn it out, then consider yourself unlucky."

   Joe and a few guards around him looked at Stein in amazement.

   Like a heart overwhelming, Joe asked Stein curiously: "Then, the Marquis of Seak, he..."

  Stein took a sip on the ground and sprayed the cigarette **** with the same saliva on the sewer cover on the side of the road.

   "The Marquis of Siacques, ah, look at him today. He is a respectable and respected old nobleman who holds a lot of power and works hard for the empire."

Stein sneered: "He has raised hundreds of lively and cute little boys in the manor in the Qiantan area. It is a little boy, not a little girl. If it were a little girl, I would envy him, but little boy, oh Ouch!"

  Stein reached out and clicked on Joe's chest, and said with a weird smile: "Do you know now? Why did Liya strictly forbid you to go to the Qiantan area when you were a kid?"

   Joe opened his mouth wide, and thunder flashed in his mind. After a long time, he said in horror: "Aha, ha. It's a respectable, moral example."

  Stein pulled his slightly crumpled coat and slapped Joe's arm hard.

   "Joe, don't bother with these filthy deeds. It is the unanimous decision of your father and I to join the special investigation team this time."

"As long as you put your name in the investigation team, when the results of the investigation come out, you will have a very generous credit, and then operate a little. You are now the youngest police officer in Tulum Port history, and soon you will be the entire empire. The youngest police lieutenant ever."

   "You are destined to be a big man by nature."

   "Look at Gorkin, he relies on unquestionable and real combat exploits. He is only seven years older than you and is already a lieutenant colonel in the Imperial Army."

   "Look at Tifa, she is about to end her four-year internship and become the youngest official judge in the history of the Tulum Port District Court. Oh, she will become the youngest female judge in the history of the entire Durham Empire."

   "Maybe, one day, Tifa will be received by the Queen because of her achievements? It is very likely that the Queen has always attached importance to the liberation of women's rights and she has always encouraged girls to take more important positions in the imperial system."

"Golkin, Tifa, they are all excellent. And Joe, you are also destined to be a big man." Stein slapped Joe's arm hard again: "Well, it's late at night, don't worry Liya, Go back and rest."

   Joe looked at Stein and reached out to help him flick away a small soot on his shoulder.

   "Godfather." Joe reached out and pressed his heart.

   The heart was beating violently, and the anger accumulated in his heart, and some inexplicable will, made Joe's fighting spirit boil.

   "What's wrong?" Stein felt something was wrong with Joe today. In the past eighteen years, Joe has been the most active in fighting with the dudes in Tulum Harbour. At other times, his attitude is like a salted fish when he does anything.

   But today, it is obvious that there have been some subtle changes in Joe.

  Stein watched Joe grow up from a small, frail baby to such a tall and sturdy young man, and even the night before, he opened up a sea of ​​strength on his own.

  He is Joe's godfather. He could feel the subtle changes in Joe.

"To be honest, I didn't want to be a policeman before." Joe carried his hands behind his back and looked at Stein seriously: "Since I can enjoy everything as long as I lie down, I can enjoy life as much as I want, why should I Work hard?"

   "But... maybe it was the roar of Thor's cannon that awakened me."

   In Joe’s eyes, a crimson light faintly lit up, and he told Stein very seriously: "My thoughts in the past were wrong. Is it enough for a man to have a lot of money?"

   Shaking his head vigorously, Joe said sincerely: "No, no, no, what is money? Power and power...especially power."

   "The moment I peeed on my pants in the roar of Thor's cannon, I awakened."

   "When I was chased by those terrible assassins, opened up a sea of ​​power, and even killed a few of them, I awakened."

  Stein's face changed slightly... He didn't even know that Joe actually killed someone the night before?

   No wonder, Joe can open the sea of ​​power.

   The moment of life and death is always easy to break through. UU reading www.uukanshu. com

  In the imperial army, many soldiers were on the battlefield. When facing a life-and-death crisis for the first time, the sea of ​​strength was suddenly opened.

  Stein's face was very gloomy.

   He wants to discuss this matter with Hessian, Joe killed someone? Stein couldn't imagine what Joe had experienced the night before.

   "I don't want to go home." Joe looked at Stein and said seriously: "I think, really become a member of the investigation team, not just follow along with a generous contribution."

"Grabbing credit from my colleagues is an insult to me, an insult to the Rittal family, and even an insult to you, my godfather." Joe grinned and said, "I want to be upright and get what I deserve. The credit."

   Stein raised his hand, and after a long time, he patted Joe's arm gently.

   There was water flickering in his eyes: "Oh, Joe, you finally grew up."

   After a heavy cough, Stein said solemnly: "Then, do what you want, old Stein will be your strong backing. You can use all the resources of the Tulum Port Police Department at will."

   "I will ask someone to inform Hessen and Liya, you, do it as you like."

   Joe nodded vigorously. There was a flash in his mind, and one thing suddenly occurred to him: "If within seven days, we have not been able to come up with a definitive investigation result?"

  Stein smiled.

   "Your father and I think that after seven days, it is good to have results. If there is no result, then this incident must be caused by the little girl named Hai Niwei. All the responsibilities are from the navy."

   "The commander of the Tulum fleet, wouldn't it be great if he could be replaced by his own?" Stein made an extremely ugly face playfully.
