Wizard: Gou adds some demon hunting in the Steam Age

Chapter 10 Sure enough, I was tricked

"The entire Secret Service Department, from top to bottom, is divided into five departments except for the high-level committee."

"Our logistics department is one, and there is also the property management department responsible for material allocation and equipment research and development, the secrets department responsible for collecting intelligence, and the 'whistleblowers' who speak out to the outside world."

"Survey the dead?" Wei En asked doubtfully, "What department is that?"

Lacey said calmly: "The nickname of the External Propaganda Department, the reason why they are called 'reporters', is that most of the time they need to speak out, it is something bad."

"To be precise, they are the department that announces the casualties and handling results of the case."

"That's right, what's the last department?"

"The War Department, the core department of the entire Secret Operation Department, they..."

Lacey paused slightly, "Well, you'll know when you see them. In short, those who can join the war department are all madmen."

She walked and talked, not only introducing the situation of the Secret Adjustment Department, but also giving some precautions to let him understand as comprehensively as possible.

This made Wayne's senses very good for Lacey.

However, he was not idle while listening, looking left and right. Everything here was new to him.

Of course, he mainly relies on his perceptual ability to "see".

The most impressive one is the place called the detention area.

When passing by there, he could feel a very strange wave, just like the feeling when he turned on the rune circle in the morning.

But it was stronger and weirder, as if it wanted to engulf him.

According to Lacey's introduction, the most dangerous things in the entire Custer city-state are held there. She didn't refer to any specific creature here. She imagined that there were many weird and forbidden items in it.

"Our secret brewing department doesn't have many rules, but there is one you have to remember."

Lacey stopped, looked at Wayne and said solemnly: "Never talk about anything related to faith in front of the director!"

Faith related?

Wayne looked at her with some confusion.

Although he came to this world not long ago, he also knew that the church had an absolute advantage in many places.

Especially a church with a large number of believers like the Church of Dawn, even in a seaside city-state like Custer, can compete with the Church of Storms.

"Captain Lacey, are you referring to the Church of Dawn?"

"all."

Lacey continued walking forward, "Dawn, Storm and Sea God, Fertility of the Earth, and the Red Moon. Anything related to these four churches is prohibited."

"Anyway, just remember this. Under normal circumstances, Mr. Secretary is very easy to talk to."

Wayne nodded, but he didn't think it was a big deal, it was just a boss with some quirks.

"We're here, this is the property management department."

Lacey stood outside an iron gate and complained: "I don't know why the director assigned this place to those bastards!"

Wei En glanced around and praised: "This place is beautiful enough."

Surrounded by flowers and plants of various colors, the layers are very layered. Some of the flowers are very precious at first sight and are too bright.

There is a fountain at the gate. The water is very clear and it is obviously taken care of regularly.

What surprised him the most was the building in front of him. Just by looking at its appearance, he could feel that it was incompatible with other buildings.

The door is made of thick iron wood with exquisitely carved patterns.

The support pillars on both sides are even more luxuriously made of albedo stone. Even the less knowledgeable predecessor of this stone knows that its price is comparable to gold pounds.

The ground is covered with a floor made of the same stone, which is bright enough to be used as a mirror.

Forehead,

purple!

Wei En glanced at the ground and quickly covered his nose and looked elsewhere.

I don’t know which master’s work it is to spread the “mirrors” on the ground. It’s so unfriendly to women who wear cool clothes...

"The best location and the most luxurious building in the entire Secret Adjustment Department... It is said that when it was built here, three years of the department's funds were used up."

Lacey curled his lips and said: "I thought the former director built it for high-level officials, but I didn't expect that he raised a bunch of people who were just waiting to die."

"You seem to be very..."

"disdain!"

Lacey glanced at the ground and realized that he had been exposed. He squeezed his legs unnaturally and said, "Most of the people in the Property Management Department are the descendants of those who sacrificed their lives in the past."

"Originally, Secretary Li hoped that they could inherit his legacy and use the energy of the Property Management Department to work hard to improve themselves. But I didn't expect... I didn't expect that they would be so disappointing!"

It turned out to be the second generation of the Secret Adjustment Department. Now Wei En understood a little bit.

"jingle."

Lacey pressed the doorbell and said unhappily: "Hurry up and get your things and leave. These damn floors... If I couldn't afford to pay, I would really want to break them all."

Before the door opened, a voice came, "That's not okay, Lacey, even if you break just one piece, your year's salary won't be enough to pay for it."

"Suomlei, open the door quickly."

"Here you are, why are you in a hurry? We have been working together for so long, so you should understand the work style of our property management department, right?"

"I don't understand." Lacey covered the hem of her skirt with one hand to minimize exposure.

Seeing this, Wei En took off his coat and handed it over, "Captain Lacey, this is for you."

Lacey quickly tied her coat around her waist, her face slightly relaxed, "I won't say thank you. I'll treat you tonight and take you to experience Custer's nightlife."

"You are welcome."

However, nightlife and stuff... are still needed!

At this time, the door slowly opened inward.

A young man with the dark blue uniform of the Secret Adjustment Department draped over his shoulders came out, glanced at the ground, and curled his lips and said: "Lacie, we are old friends, it is not good for you to be so defensive."

"Stop talking nonsense!" Lacey snorted: "We have a new colleague in the logistics department today, and I am too lazy to beat you up."

"New colleagues?"

Only then did Somle notice Wei En next to him. A trace of displeasure flashed across his face, but he laughed and said: "Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Secret Adjustment Department. I am Somle Arias from the Property Management Department. .”

"Wayne Loft."

I don't know why, after coming out of this man, little Assi's eyes have been fixed on this person named Somlai, and he didn't even look at Lacey's pair of majestic white lands.

This made Wei En become interested in the person in front of him.

"Then come with me. The equipment is in the warehouse nearby."

With a hint of arrogance on his face, Somle turned around lightly and walked ahead to lead the way.

"Go ahead, I'll wait for you outside." Lacey looked at the brighter ground inside and frowned.

"good."

After saying that, Wei En followed over, focusing on Somle just like little Axi.

"Looking at you, you don't belong to Custer, right?"

"I just came here not long ago."

Somlai turned around and glanced at him, his eyes scrutinizing, "You dare to join the Secret Adjustment Department when you first come here, or are you the most dangerous logistics department besides the combat department? Are you an extraordinary profession, or are you the inheritor of an extraordinary bloodline?"

Wei En was stunned for a moment, not because of the question raised by the other party, but because of the most dangerous line about the logistics department.

"The most dangerous...the logistics department?"

"It turns out you don't know anything about the Secret Adjustment Division, tsk!"

Somlai smiled with an unknown meaning, looked at him and said, "Wayne, right? I hope to see you in the Secret Adjustment Department again in the future."

After saying that, he didn't explain much, but quickened his pace, as if he didn't want to waste time with an irrelevant person.

Seeing him like this, Wei En had a bad feeling. Maybe this logistics department was different from what he imagined.

It seems that later, it is necessary to ask the team leader about the responsibilities of the logistics department...

"Don't be stunned. I have to go to the cathedral later. Come here quickly."

Somle took out a piece of parchment and laid it on the table, and said: "Sign your name here. Also, I have to remind you that the secret blending department's funds are tight."

"When the equipment is damaged, you have to pay half of the repair cost."

Wayne glanced at the suitcase in his hand and asked, "Is it expensive to repair it?"

"It's very expensive... Do you still want it? Rookie, put away your poor imagination."

Somle sneered: "What's in this box is the most sophisticated and powerful standard equipment in the entire Custer city-state."

"Except for some personally customized equipment, this is the most precious thing. Just selling this set on the black market can make you rich overnight."

"You don't think that we are really the offenders that Lacey talks about and are waiting to die, do you?"

Wayne blinked, "You mean, it can be sold?"

If you really get rich overnight, this deal is not impossible.

At worst, after selling the equipment, he would leave the Kingdom of Chartland and run far away.

As for whether the people in the property management department are bastards... what does this have to do with him?

"..."

Somlai looked suspicious, and the veins on his forehead squirmed, "If you dare to sell them privately, just wait for the lunatics from the war department to come to your door!"

"I was just kidding."

Wayne signed his name, carried the box, and asked casually: "Brother Somle, are you also going to the church to watch Archbishop Klande lead the hymn?"

"Who cares about that old man? I'm here to see my goddess Kali... Why are you asking?"

"Goddess Kali?"

"What does this have to do with you?"

Wayne watched his eyes become dangerous and pretended to be happy and said, "If it's the goddess Kali who studies at Krims College, I should know her."

Since little Axi is so interested in him, it would be better to leave a hook appropriately.

"You? Know Goddess Kali?"

"yes."

Somle said disdainfully: "Then I still know her father... hurry up and don't delay my get off work!"

"See you later, Brother Somle."

Seeing that he didn't believe it, Wei En didn't say anything more, shrugged and turned to leave.

The hook has been dropped, and there will be plenty of opportunities in the future.

After he left the property management department, he saw Lacey standing next to the fountain with an impatient look on his face, and there was a tall, strong man next to him.

"...Santiago, I have made my attitude clear, please don't appear in front of me again."

"Lacey, I know you have misunderstood me. Time will prove that I am the most powerful successor to the Montoya family."

"What does that have to do with me?"

"Captain Lacey, I've got the equipment here."

When the strong man heard the voice, he turned around and glanced at Wei En. After saying "Let's talk next time", he turned and left.

Lacey did not respond to his words, but handed the coat tied around her waist to Wayne, "Let's go."

Wei En was stunned for a long time, then he suppressed the trembling in his body, took the coat and put it on stiffly, "Who was that just now?"

"Santiago, he is from the war department, an out-and-out lunatic! When you see him in the future, remember to stay away from him."

Wayne nodded calmly, "Oh."

That look... was so scary, he thought he was going to die.

The moment he met the man's eyes, he felt the world spinning in front of him. He vaguely seemed to see a towering giant figure roaring at him.

Lacey looked at him, as if he had thought of something, and his expression became angry, "This bastard! He actually used shock on you!"

"Next time I see him, I will definitely not forgive him!"

"Shock?"

"A kind of spiritual magic. As long as the mental level is not higher than that of the caster, you will be forced into a dazed state. In severe cases, you may even become an idiot!"

Lacey gritted his teeth and said, "I didn't expect that he would dare to attack you. Isn't he afraid of being punished by the director?"

"It's okay, I'll know later."

Wei En didn't care on the surface, but in his heart he remembered Santiago's name.

If he has the chance, he will definitely find this place again!

"Let's go. I'll introduce you to the Secret Adjustment Department when I get back."

"Um."

Wei En followed behind with his suitcase, "By the way, I don't know the responsibilities of our logistics department yet. Can you introduce them to me?"

"Huh? Didn't Yegor explain it to you when you signed the employment contract?"

"Perhaps Minister Yegor has forgotten."

"This bastard!" Lacey cursed again, "I knew he didn't say anything. Isn't this intentional to deceive people?"

"..."

Did this person forget that when they first met, she used the word "fool"?

"The full name of our Logistics Department is actually the Logistics and Investigation Department! In fact, the scope of work has nothing to do with logistics."

"...What about the specifics?"

Although Wei En was somewhat mentally prepared, when he actually heard this, he still felt like he had been cheated!

"The specific work mainly includes two parts,"

Lacey said slightly embarrassed: "One is responsible for the investigation of all mysterious cases within Custer City. I know it is inappropriate to say this, but in fact this job is very dangerous!"

"Does that mean I have to go to all kinds of dangerous places?"

"Not only that, but also dealing with those followers of evil gods, out-of-control extraordinary professionals, and..."

"besides?!"

Wayne rolled his eyes, he already understood what the logistics department did.

To put it more vividly, he is a policeman from the otherworldly world!

"The other thing is to collect as many weaknesses of those weird creatures as possible to help the combat department personnel in their battle..."

"In other words, we have to fight those weird creatures in advance?"

"No," Lacey said sheepishly, "Or maybe you learned about it in other ways..."

Wei En took a deep breath, not prepared to continue to struggle with this issue, but asked: "What about the other one?"

"The other thing is to be responsible for finishing the case!"

Having said this, Lacey's expression relaxed and he smiled and said, "I guarantee that you will be absolutely satisfied with this responsibility!"
