"Good evening, Mr. 'Emperor', and the two ladies of the staff. It's very frightening to come to disturb you suddenly."

It was a Victorian man wearing a monocle who couldn't have been here—at least not in the eyes of the angels and Texas.And a blond film woman with an extraordinary temperament despite wearing a superintendent's uniform——for the "emperor" who is also in the business field, she is not an unfamiliar face.

"Mr. Blaine (Miss Swire)...?!"

No.40 Chapter Nine Behind the Scenes

[Xu You, are you saying that besides the fallen angel, there are other existences behind this matter secretly manipulating? 】

[Yes, Chen sir.Although it is unbelievable to say this, according to my speculation, there are at least two people or organizations involved in the planning of this matter. 】

It was the ward of Longmen City Hospital. Xu You, who stood up from the bed and looked like a normal person, said to the other three superintendents of the Guard Bureau in the room.

[The girl named Snow Pheasant jumped off the building was not just an accident—I believe Sir Chen, you have already seen it.This is a deliberate design... Whether it is me or Xuezhi, it is just a step in this design. 】

【Deliberate design...】

【I know it's hard for you Sir Chen to believe it, but it's true, although the clues and evidence are really limited so far.But I'm sure we'll have a clue soon, if you'll allow me to use the fallen angel's sentence as leverage. 】

Smiling, he nodded to Superintendent Ghost Race and Miss Feilin who were a little confused, and took the black umbrella on the bedside table. Xu You looked at Chen who lowered his head as if thinking deeply about something.

【That's the fallen angel of Lateran, you know how dangerous it is.What's more, she did that to you, whether public or private, I can't...]

[Please rest assured, Sir Chen, I can persuade that fallen angel to provide us with more information—you know a lot about my abilities, I believe you will not think this is a difficult task for me. 】

[But I have issued a criminal notice to Penguin Logistics, and it is not realistic to take it back.As the head of the inspection team of the Guards Bureau, I can't...]

Chen's eyes still had concerns. Obviously, she didn't really want to let go of a certain fallen angel lady who made the man in front of her almost separated from her forever.

[Don't worry about this, Miss Beatrix and I will go to Penguin Logistics to talk to them later, and they will take the initiative to come to the door, and you will have a step down. 】

Smiling, Xu You suggested.

【....Okay then, Hoshiguma and I will go to the detention center to take care of her right away, you come here as soon as possible. 】

Facing Xu You who always had a confident smile, Chen finally had no choice but to nod his head, agreeing to his proposal.

So this is also the scene where Shi Huaiya and Xu You came to the door in Penguin Logistics.

.....

For the first time, Angel and Texas thought they were hallucinating.

In front of the abandoned factories in the slums at that time, they could see clearly.The scene when the police officer surnamed Chen declared and arrested Mostima on the charge of "intentional murder" with unprecedented sharp eyes.

But what happened now?

The energy angel is clear, and neither is Texas.When the Victorian man wearing a monocle appeared in front of the two of them again, the atmosphere in the entire office suddenly became weird.

"Mr. Blaine, you are not...!"

Looking at the man who followed Croissant into the office door, Angel Neng's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief.

Although their "Holy Book" of the Lateran people did not record such an incredible bridge - the man named Lazarus was resurrected from the grave by a child who was walking on the ground by the gods.But when this scene really happened in front of his eyes, Angel Neng was only astonished.

Bringing the dead back to life is the ability of gods, or in other words, it is not an exaggeration to call it a "miracle".How could such a man who had already passed away in their eyes...

"Don't be surprised, Ms. Angel. For some things, the process is not important. You only need to look at the results, and it's clear enough."

It's still the black umbrella, and the crystal monocle.No matter how Texas and Angel looked left and right, this man was no different from the man who had impressed them before.

"Great, Mr. Bryan, you are fine! Doesn't that mean that Mostima also..."

The surprise didn't last long. When he realized that he was an angel who saw nothing, he quickly understood the meaning of Xu You's reappearance here——

If Xu You didn't die, then Mostima's previous crimes were not convicted.As long as the murder charge is not convicted, what else does she have to worry about?

Thinking of this, Neng Angel even had the urge to hug the man in front of him.Although I don't know how he saved the day, his appearance is not a bad thing for Penguin Logistics who are worried about this.

"Hey, what are you trying to do, you little brat? This lady warns you, stay away from us, or you will be charged with assaulting the police!"

Although I don't know exactly what happened before, but seeing another man whom she didn't recognize, a woman who wanted to get close to her, Shi Huaiya directly grasped the hammer in her hand, and stood between Xu You and Penguin Logistics.

She won't be like that street dragon, holding a magic weapon for nothing but not being able to protect the safety of the people around her.Shi Huaiya thought that as long as she was there, she would never let anyone hurt him—especially after what happened just now.

"Uh...! Sorry, officer, I'm not okay seeing Mr. Blaine, I'm a little excited..."

Being stopped by such an unfamiliar blond female police superintendent, Angel Neng was startled, and immediately backed away a little embarrassed.Speaking of which, there are quite a lot of women around Mr. Blaine. Wasn't it Police Officer Chen before?How long did it take, and another one was changed...

"Please explain why you came here, Ms. Shi Huaiya...and this Mr. 'victim'. Didn't the two of you have something important to talk to us about? Please tell me."

But at this moment, the "Emperor", who was sitting behind the desk and watching all this silently, suddenly spoke.

Probably to be the first to catch people's attention, he took this opportunity to take a few more glances at the Victorian man who should have been taken to the funeral home at this time according to the information he had received.

His eyes flickered, not knowing what to think.

[Question collection building ①] Answer the questions received by the author about the reading experience of the work

rt, because the author received some private messages, so I opened the building to reply here (continuously updated), if you have any questions, you can also ask them in this building, there will be a guaranteed update tonight, everyone, don’t worry~

Question summary:

①Q: Is this book an invincible text?If you know the common sense of running a group, why should you place a high value on a skill like psychology that is not very useful?

A: From the perspective of the plot, this book is an invincible novel (except for facing some special "characters"), and there will not be any plots where the protagonist suffers. Please rest assured to watch.As for why the psychological point is so high, you can understand that the "character card" in the Cthulhu world is not the protagonist's car, but is forced to travel to the "made template".The author's experience in running groups is limited to a few village planning groups, I hope this will be easier for some group running enthusiasts to understand.

②Q: Is this book a single master or a harem?It looks so stomach ache to just flirt but not accept, I hope the author can mark it and let me know.

A: The author has a principle in writing - no sincere feelings can be easily obtained in a few words.Regarding the issue of the heroine, the so-called sweet love story must involve a third party, but the author does not know how to write about the harem.There are at most 2 to 3 heroines, and they will choose those with more matching personalities to send out sweeter candies. I hope that readers will like it~

③Q: Is it really good that the Cthulhu world is so cruel and the protagonist is so "kind"?The protagonist must have been devastated, how could there be such a protagonist in that kind of world.

A: First of all, regarding this question, the author hopes that readers can understand that the cruelty of the Cthulhu world is different from the fantasy world of cultivating immortals by natural selection. Its cruelty is unilaterally reflected in all the lives there.

This is not a world of comprehension where people kill people, seize treasures, cultivate Taoism and soar. In front of gods who are absolutely powerful and irresistible, the only way out for the beings in that world is to support each other in despair.

The indescribable gods have no feelings, so the feelings of beings helping each other to seek vitality are the only warmth, cherish and respect life, this is a cognition that life after coming out of it will definitely grow.

The main theme of this book is "the human heart is the most powerful force of human beings", "if you don't take the lead in singing the praises, then the cruel world will remain cruel".It would be great if you can read the book slowly and understand the author's feelings. The author hereby expresses his gratitude.

Looking forward to more questions from you~

that's all.

Talking about the Battle in Penguin Logistics

words

"Allow your Guards Bureau to search the staff quarters of Penguin Logistics?"

Hearing this, although the appearance of the penguin did not show a change in expression, it could be heard that the emperor's tone was obviously lower.

"This is impossible, Mr. Blaine. Penguin Logistics has the right to protect the privacy of each of its employees, not even me."

"Hehe, of course I know that you, Mr. Emperor, have no right to do this. In Longmen, every citizen has an independent right to privacy."

With a slight smile, Xu You said: "But the final interpretation of this right to privacy lies with the Guards Bureau, which enacts and enforces laws in Longmen, so the Guards Bureau sent people to search your company's employee dormitories in the name of law enforcement. I don't think there is anything wrong with that." OK."

"Mr. Blaine is really good at joking. The Security Bureau's search power over Longmen's regular companies is not something you can do if you want...unless you want to challenge the entire Longmen's business circle with your own strength. "

Raising his eyelids, the emperor's words carried a faint, mocking smile.

"Even if there are employees in this company who have violated the laws of Longmen... A company is a company, and an individual is an individual. This has to be dealt with separately. I believe the superintendent Shi Huaiya next to you understands."

He has no worries at all about the proposal that the Victorian man said—as the saying goes, one small move will affect the whole body. It is true that the employees in his company have violated the Longmen law and need to accept sanctions.But if the Guards Bureau blamed this on their entire company, it would be asking for trouble.

As the most prosperous economic and trade center in the entire Terra, the complex interest chains among the various commercial groups in Longmen cannot tolerate such cross-border behavior by the Guard Bureau—after all, Longmen is supported by commerce. Internally, it is not just a simple search, but also a provocation to the capitalists in the entire business circle of Longmen.

Today, you, Penguin Logistics, were forcibly kicked out by the Guard Bureau for no reason. Will it be our xx group, xx company in the future?This is an extremely complicated chain of interests, and the unspoken rules underneath, which can be broken if they are broken.

"Hey, Fat Penguin, you're good at bluffing people, aren't you? Our Guards Bureau inspected one of your employee dormitories. You have risen to the level of the entire company's interests. Are you acting like a lady who doesn't know how to do it?"

Hearing the emperor's words, Shi Huaiya's expression changed.Apparently, she, who has seen countless times in various business occasions, is quite displeased with the intentional or unintentional move of the "emperor" to change the concept and change the nature of the matter.

"You are not afraid of the shadow slanting, our Guards Bureau is only conducting a search on this case committed by the individual employees of your company! Oh, Miss Ben suddenly remembered that you Penguin Logistics had a relationship with Miss Ben's family company just last week. A listing financing agreement of one billion Longmen coins has been planned and it has not yet been formally signed, if you don’t want any accidents, just agree to this lady!"

"Miss Shi Huaiya...I'm just discussing the facts. If you threaten other irrelevant incidents, it may not be good for you and your family's reputation if it gets out."

Hearing Shi Huaiya's words, the emperor's face became even more ugly - at least judging from the tone.

He really didn't expect that this Victorian man who came from nowhere could get so many bargaining chips to confront him... so that this Miss Feilin would rather sacrifice the interests of the family to stand for him, This is not a common occurrence.

"Hehe, Mr. Emperor, don't worry about it. Miss Beatrix has such a personality, and her words are straightforward. Your business with the Swire family will never be dragged down by this incident... as Beatrix With the help of Miss, I will definitely help you persuade her."

He smiled slightly, still in a calm tone.But to the emperor, the profound meaning contained in it made him feel at ease.

But before he regained his senses, Xu You's voice sounded again:

"Furthermore, Miss Beatrix would never do such a thing as damaging the family's reputation... Withdrawing a large amount of investment funds from a company with illegal plans will not only not damage the reputation, but also It can add a lot of fame."

At some point, Xu You took out a paper document with some photos printed on it from his pocket.When it was handed over to the emperor, it was accompanied by a sudden change in the emperor's face——

"You.....where are you from...!"

"Don't be surprised, Mister 'Emperor'. The Guards Bureau is more powerful than you think, just like you can dare to do such a thing without anyone noticing."

Those were photos of several old sheepskin books, together with the handwriting annotated on them.Maybe other people can't see what it means at a glance, but the emperor knows it clearly in his heart——

Because that is his handwriting.

"Make a choice, Mr. Emperor."

In the end, pinching the monocle, Xu You smiled lightly, looking at the Emperor Penguin who is so powerful in both black and white in Longmen.

"Should I allow the Guards Bureau to enter your company's employee dormitory to search, or go to the Guards Bureau in person to explain the origin of these things... The boss of Penguin Logistics is holding some kind of cult horror ceremony, I believe it will definitely happen It's very interesting news."

ps: I'm looking for a recommendation qwq

In a word, the sun goes down

one word

What that parchment book means, except for those who plotted all this secretly, that is Xu You who knows best.

Five different ways of dying, five people with different experiences and personalities, symbolize five rituals with different meanings.

Under the chain of witnesses, they will converge into a trumpet calling for the power of a certain god, inviting His power to come to the world——

Because only He likes to watch such complicated and ridiculous dramas the most.

...if I could, I wish I hadn't seen this stuff.

Quietly touching the parchment book in his arms, Xu You's mood was extraordinarily complicated.

He couldn't get to the bottom of the maker of the parchment and its origin, and he couldn't be sure whether such a "ritual" would be successful in the world called "Tera".

But he must not allow any accidental births—their horror is unbearable for any life on Terra.Even the origin stone disease and natural disasters are so insignificant compared to it.

Taboos are taboos, and those who know taboos should be vigilant no matter where they go.There are countless "ceremonies" that can connect them. Regardless of whether the appearance of this sheepskin book is a coincidence or compiled by someone with a heart, he must treat it with an unprecedented rigorous attitude.

"Xu You, is it really appropriate to push them to this point? This is the first time Miss Ben has seen this fat penguin's face so black. Is that 'cult ceremony' really related to their penguin logistics?"

"Hehe, who knows. In short, the evidence is there, and I don't think Mr. 'Emperor' has too many choices."

"Hmm... Should I say that it is really you, the 'Emperor' of Penguin Logistics is not an ordinary person, and there are not many people in the entire Longmen who can make him suffer."

As if feeling something in his heart, he stepped out of the elevator and came back to the lobby on the first floor of the Penguin Logistics Company building.Looking at the handsome Victorian man beside him, Shi Huaiya muttered, saying:

"But you haven't told Miss Ben yet, what's the matter with the cult ceremony? Somehow, I saw that you asked Pujielong to focus on investigating cases related to this... This matter is really so serious ?”

"How should I say this? How should a terrorist attack be pronounced in the Longmen Criminal Law? Miss, do you know?"

"Of course, that's a felony, ranging from being hanged to the gallows to being shot dead on the spot."
