Outside the cemetery.
Hardy was dressed in a solemn black suit.
Seeing Cole coming out, the little man hurried over and put a pure black umbrella over Cole''s head.
The sound of the rain hitting the umbrella is crisp and killing.
Vera Morgan''s hands wore women''s silk lace black gloves, and covered her eyes and forehead with a thin black veil in the very traditional way of attending the funeral in montxidu.
In the past, there was an ugly scar on the right side of the beautiful and delicate face that had not been cured after being scalded.
Maybe I can''t believe it.
So many things happened in the short days when she was injured and on vacation.
The girl frowned slightly and said in a deep voice, "I can''t believe your excellency Baruch will really..."
For the daughter of a wealthy plutocracy, the thought that was deeply imprinted in her blood and thought that she was more noble than ordinary people still leaves indelible traces in her words, deeds and thoughts until now.
Baruch Lennon Butler.
Massacre sequence, permanent member of the demon hunting regiment.
In her opinion.
A powerful demon hunter with such status and achievements, even death and sacrifice, will declare to the world that he has been here in an earth shaking and magnificent way.
However.
What she still can''t accept is that the permanent member, the demon hunter who once handled the great devil case, faces the witch who no one is willing to mention her name and has brought countless pain to the world.
Weak life, just like all ordinary people.
Cole didn''t say anything.
Under Hardy''s umbrella, he quickly got in the car, started the engine and drove to the demon hunting regiment.
Years of experience in handling cases and the keen intuition of demon hunters told him.
Seranda, falling into a witch may not be just because of the internal investigation and the temptation of the great devil.
Because she mentioned a sentence: corrupt bureaucrats.
It is certain that she is not talking about Baruch or niexius, but someone else.
Vera stood where she was.
The Duke of horsey one in the distance.
Not long.
Chaz Morgan came to her with an umbrella, put on a warm coat for the girl very carefully, and said, "what are you looking at?"
After a long silence.
Vera frowned. "Doesn''t that man feel sad at all? About Miss seranda and Lord Baruch..."
Chaz sighed and helped her to the car.
The leather shoes trampled on the calm puddle, and the water splashed. They sighed, "all humans will feel sad, Vera, but sadness will not belong to the demon hunter.
He knows this better than anyone. "
Bang.
The sound of door closing is dull.
Vera''s eyes looked out of the window. The cold and biting rain was chaotic, but it gathered into a stream.
Just like her heart at the moment.
...
Demon hunting regiment.
Cole stepped into the hall on the first floor. Miss Shane had been waiting for him at the stairs early.
"Mr. Minister, I have handled all the matters you arranged. Mr. Chien showed signs of awakening last night, and the Institute and doctors are still watching closely..."
Talking room.
The female secretary, who had always been able and resolute, handed a stack of documents and a pen to Cole and asked for signature.
After a brief silence, he said, "about the rumor about you and miss Haley Johnny that you applied for the Ministry of the interior to investigate last time, Minister Roddy, I need to talk to you face-to-face."
Hear this.
Cole''s signature pen stopped in his hand, raised his head and looked at the female secretary with cold eyes.
Working in a bureaucratic structure such as the demon hunting regiment, perhaps Shane strange is lonely and just a very ordinary civilian.
But no one thought of it.
This young woman, the Secretary of the Minister of special affairs, is particularly sensitive to the struggle for certain things, politics and power.
Well versed in the art of speaking.
So solemnly filed the application for investigation against Cole.
obviously.
In today''s very restless demon hunting group.
She needs to hide her eyes and ears. In this way, she deliberately sends a message to Cole, so as not to scare the snake before Cole has made a decision.
"I see."
Shane nodded slightly to Cole and then said, "Sir Carl Helms, there seems to be something very important. He''s in your office now."
After saying that, I took the document, and the sound of high heels was hurried.
Cole asked Hardy to wait for him in the office.
Walk quickly to the ninth floor.
Knock on the brown lacquered door of the Minister of the interior painted with strange sequence runes.
After seeing Cole.
Roddy Singh, who was tall and looked ferocious, got up quickly and said with a smile, "it was your excellency Cole. I had to leave early because of some things.
Sit first. "
Cole knew he was talking about his first step away at Baruch''s funeral.
But he was not interested in talking about these things. He sat on the sofa and said coldly, "about the case that the special department applied for your assistance in investigation, has the result?"
Let''s get to the point.
Roddy frowned, got up and went out of the office. After explaining to the Secretary, he turned in and locked the wooden door.
Give Cole a cigarette and take a deep breath.
Leaning against the windowsill, frowning, he said, "I have always admired your keen intuition about the details of the case. Cole Baruch praised it in front of me more than once.
So, the case you asked me to investigate, unexpectedly, involved penny seranda and a permanent member of the demon hunting regiment. "
Sniff.
He organized the language and said in a dignified tone, "first of all, the rumors about you and the witch are not gossip among the people under the demon hunting group, but Levi Leto, the permanent director in charge of the evil spirit case, who deliberately let them out.
He and Baruch have always disagreed. It''s hard to say. It''s not the southern iron and Steel Group and the relevant capital alliance, which lobbied heavily for other directors and cabinet members.
It involves nicius Franco, who has long been put in prison by the trial court.
That rumor is aimed at you personally, trying to leave a stain on your resume, prevent you from being promoted to the position of permanent member like me in the future, and weaken the power of Baruch.
And... "
That''s it.
The iron man''s eyes suddenly showed some feelings of self blame and anger.
Even because of force.
The cigarette butts pinched in his hand were broken, crushed, mixed with unburned cut tobacco and scattered on the ground.
"I shouldn''t have told seranda these things, Cole.
The actions of the members of the razor brigade were highly confidential, but Levi Leto bribed Baruch''s former Secretary and got the action track and specific plan of the members of the brigade.
He thought it was a persecution by Baruch against his political alliance with Theseus, so he wanted to block it.
Unexpectedly, God damn Nicius Franco''s bad ass was really Al Carter''s hand in hand with the help of kokoyoki, and he had buried the eye liner of the hunting magic group twenty-eight years ago.
Take a deep breath.
Roddy Singh, looking at Cole with a very apologetic look, wanted to say something, and wanted to stop talking.
Cole didn''t say anything.
Get up and kick open the door of the Ministry of the interior.
Put your hands in your pockets, swing your windbreaker and step on the office leading to the top floor of the demon hunting group.
Go to the stairs.
It was like a winner''s harsh laughter, which suddenly sounded in the open corridor.
