Ke-style law enforcement officers

Chapter 312 The Sucker Arrives

Milo accepted the arrangement to be suspended from his post for observation.

All the leaders were very pleased.

The reason is simple: although there are indeed two opposing factions at the top, they have reached a consensus.

This is quite different from the situation that Milo initially guessed would involve getting things done and causing trouble.

They've already written the script.

Moreover, it is highly unlikely that Solomon will be implicated in the end, because the purpose of suspending Milo for observation is to remove him from the case investigation.

Regardless of where the rumors originated—it might have been leaked by the other two inspectors in Nanwei City, or even by Nero himself—the higher-ups believe that Milo is the one who connected the assassins with Solomon. If they want to complete this script and put it into practice, they cannot allow Milo to continue causing trouble.

That's why the question arose—"Are you willing to testify in court and identify Solomon?"

Milo had initially thought the senator was on the opposite side of Solomon, but now it seemed he wasn't on either side. His task was to ensure that the situation in Nanwei City would ultimately end as the scripted story would suggest, thus concluding this farce.

……

It sounds complicated, but it's not hard to understand. What the county councilor wants Milo to do is stay home and wait for news. If nothing unexpected happens, a new criminal gang will appear to take the blame for Solomon, and the assassin crisis in Nanwei City will be resolved jointly by the army and the county law enforcement team.

This should be the consensus finally reached between the two factions.

Solve the killer problem without involving Solomon.

As for which side made the concession, that's beyond Milo's current understanding.

……

Being a member of parliament is really tough; it's incredibly mentally taxing.

No wonder people always say that the parliament is full of beasts.

Milo sighed.

It wasn't that he was lamenting the darkness of the world; he just felt a little sorry for the elite army soldiers who had been temporarily transferred there, and for that lieutenant colonel who was nearly two meters tall and looked like a bear.

They probably don't even know what they're about to face.

A group of mortals helping the "Apostles of Calamity" to deal with the "Visitors"—what a genius came up with that plan!

Thankfully, these people seemed quite confident.

...

After much hesitation, Milo couldn't help but add:
"Actually, I don't really care about Solomon or not. In the end, it's up to you all to decide. What I'm worried about are those assassins..."

"You don't need to worry about that. We'll handle Solomon's assassins." The lieutenant colonel said confidently, turning to look at the three local inspectors from Nanwei City:

"You city law enforcement officers just need to do your patrol duties well. We will take all the clues and information. Understand that the military and the law enforcement system are two different levels. We don't need you to cause trouble in terms of armed operations."

After saying that, he turned back to look at Milo:

"We won't make a fool of ourselves by letting a suspect who has already been arrested escape."

"..."

It took Milo quite a while to understand what the other person meant by that last sentence.

The lieutenant colonel was subtly criticizing Milo for letting David Derby escape.

Of course, that's what was said at the meeting—David Derby escaped after being sent to a mental hospital.

"That's great."

He shrugged.

Since a complete fool has jumped out and confidently claimed that he can solve the crisis, Milo couldn't be happier. He was originally worried about where to find the hunter, but now he can just take a leave of absence.

"The people of Nanwei will never forget you."

...Before handing over all his weapons and leaving the law enforcement headquarters, Milo took a special look at the group of so-called elites transferred from the Western Army.

It seems that's indeed the case; they're all clearly professionals who have received rigorous military training.

Their weapons were far more advanced than those of the local law enforcement officers, and they were all tall and burly, wearing heavy coats that were only used in the windy, sandy plateaus of the Northwest.

However, training is one thing, and war is another.

How many years ago was the Western Wars, and how many years ago were the colonial expansion wars? Which side has truly experienced the baptism of war? A comparison of these numbers makes it obvious. Even without the existence of the psychic Monquia, these people might not be qualified to compete with those hunters.

The most crucial point is that the hunters are no longer simply skilled killers; their minds have been tampered with by ravens, and in some ways, they are truly capable of being fearless and ruthless.

Based on this alone, the inspection team has no chance of winning.

……

As for when these arrogant guys will stumble, that's not something Milo needs to worry about.

Anyway, I'm completely clean now.

"I won't hand this over; it's my personal belongings."

When Milo handed over his weapons, the person in charge of collecting them kept a close eye on the crowbar hanging from Milo's waistband.

"what ever."

……

Milo didn't manage to speak to Nero until he left the law enforcement headquarters.

According to Nero, this situation has been completely handed over to the higher-ups to resolve, and Milo is not qualified to participate in the deals and games involved.

But few people know that Milo himself is one of the hunters' targets.

The county councilor let Milo go, the patrol team let Milo go, but Raven has no intention of letting him go.

After leaving the law enforcement headquarters, Milo went through all the details on the way. The Church was definitely going to back down completely, as could be seen from the Glagi incident. However, they had the ability to find the hunters' next hunting target, so Dirashaw was still quite important.

Then there are the known potential victims.

There was one in the orphanage, one in Grasso, and then there was myself.

The hunters certainly won't give up so easily.

What Milo was truly concerned about was the real intention behind this hunt. To put it bluntly, what they were doing was, to some extent, helping Nanwei City resolve its hidden dangers, only their methods were too simplistic and brutal.

If Milo himself wasn't on the kill list, he could have simply stood by and watched from the sidelines.

But no.

Now that his weapons have been forced to be surrendered, Milo will have to seriously consider his safety.

Anyway, he couldn't go home for the time being, so he couldn't lead the hunters home.

Emma, ​​Finn, and Kang know nothing about this; we absolutely cannot involve them.

But someone has to keep an eye on him, just in case.

……

"No problem, leave it to me."

Yan patted his chest and readily agreed after hearing Milo's words.

But that was clearly not enough, so the banished shadows, Old Man Roch and Kane, naturally became the guardians of the Valrokan family.

After all, the surname Valrokan is not common in Nanwei City, so if hunters wanted to target Milo's family, they could easily find them.

After arranging these matters, Milo went to see old Theon again.
