A Wizard's Survival Guide to the 20th Century

"I have a clue, do you want to hear it?" Reese smiled and told him some good news.

"Of course." Roger cheered up and sat up straighter.

"I had a team of officers investigate where Rolle was killed and they found a homeless man who saw Officer Hall who was off duty."

"According to what he said, Constable Hall walked alone to the place where he was killed. Behind him was only a man dressed as a beggar. He could not tell whether he was a man or a woman, and it was not clear whether he was holding anything."

"Then he is an angel...but what does that mean?" Roger asked confused.

"At least one thing is that the angel acts alone and will carefully track the target for a period of time before taking action." Reese said, "This is a good habit for the killer, but it can also provide us with a chance."

"Fishing opportunities."

Roger immediately understood what he meant: "You mean to let the police officer deliberately act alone and use him as bait to fish him out."

"Yes." Reese said, "But this will create another problem, how to get the angel to take the bait."

"I looked through the files of the previous police officers who were victimized and found some commonalities."

"Stark is not only a police officer, but also the third-in-command of the Dog Street Gang. He is their legal protector... Of course, I am not here to prosecute you for some of your bribery behaviors. That will be later. I just want to say now, have you noticed that the Dog Street Gang disappeared after Stark’s death?”

"So the angel didn't choose the target randomly, but planned it?" Roger understood what he meant.

"I'm afraid so," Reese said.

"But why would he do this? Stark is an ordinary person. The gang we have come into contact with is just a collection of gangsters. There can be no truly valuable people." Roger was puzzled.

It is completely impossible for an angel to be afraid of Stark, and he doesn't even care about the law.

If he wanted to do something, he could do it directly. Killing Stark seemed like a superfluous step.

"I haven't finished speaking yet. Many things need to be connected to get the answer." Reese shook his head and continued.

"After Stark, it was Hawkins who was killed."

"He is a veteran police officer and a civilian employee, but you may not have noticed his other identity - the head of the bounty office. He is the only one in the police station who knows the contact information of all bounty hunters."

"Next, Raoul Hall, this is the deputy leader of the special handling team and an experienced criminal policeman. I checked and found that he has indeed nothing to do with gangsters and criminals in the city, but the problem is that he is a wizard. "

As if to explain in more detail, Reese held out a few fingers: "He was already a 4D before joining the police force, so he should have been promoted to at least one level, and may have even been promoted to four levels at most. "

"Without an organization, it is extremely difficult to find and identify wizards. I think he is most likely related to some small wizard gatherings."

"That way it becomes clear what they have in common."

After Roger listened quietly, he shed a drop of cold sweat:

"What is it?"

"It's the degree of contact with the most basic level." Reese said seriously, "Do you remember who the 'Angels' are serving? The answer is the Labor Federation, and these actions of the Angels, as expected, must be directed by them of."

"The purpose of the Federation of Labor is to interrupt the connection between the upper and lower levels of society and get rid of those who can direct their subordinates to spy on their actions, so that the management of society cannot obtain information."

"They understand that their power is still very weak, so they have to send out their strongest blades and snipe down the targets one by one."

Reese nodded at the table and said, "We can find police officers with such characteristics in the police station. The next target of 'Angel' will definitely be among them."

"Mr. Roger, now is not the time to be coy. I need you to tell me who else in the police station is related to wild wizards or gangs. This is related to his life."

Roger was silent for a moment, then seemed to think for a while.

Finally, he raised his head and said, "Me."

……

Henry's relics were not many, including some books, some clothes, a radio and other miscellaneous items.

There are no mysterious notes or threatening books.

The only thing that caught Levi's attention was a small box of pearls, which seemed incompatible with Henry's character. He didn't like jewelry.

"Mr. Brown said this was the material for Henry's gift to Miss Karina..." Mulda explained.

"Henry plans to hand-make a pearl necklace for Karina."

Levi nodded in understanding and picked up a pearl with his hand.

The pearl is round, and when light shines on it, a layer of white halo shines on its edge.

It looks like the quality is very good.

But there was nothing more than that. Levi put the pearl back, feeling a little frustrated.

There are no clues based on this alone... Levi raised his head and glanced at the clock. It was two o'clock in the afternoon, and it was almost time.

So he stood up, turned to Field and asked: "Did you find anything?"

"No." Field shook his head and answered truthfully, "Where is the team leader?"

As soon as she finished speaking, she realized that the team leader had disappeared.

"The team leader went to do other things. After all, we can't let up on the 'Angel' thing." Levi explained.

"There's no sound..." Field muttered. Since the upgrade, the team leader's health is much better than before.

At least he is no longer an old man who just sits at the door and smokes.

"Let's go visit Miss Karina. It's almost the appointed time." Levi suggested.

The other two people didn't have any objections, and they stood up and prepared to set off.

……

Half an hour later, Karina's house.

It was still the same maid as last time, but this time they opened the door for several people and led them in.

Carlin's house was obviously larger than Brown's house. Levi and the other three passed through a courtyard filled with ferns and low shrubs. There were also pavilions covered with vines and white marble statues in the ancient Greek style, as if they were in a house. It reflects the aesthetic taste of the villa owner.

After the door of the villa opened, there was a living room. Levi looked around. He thought he would see Miss Karina's parents here, but there seemed to be no one at home.

"It is the young lady's own choice to accept your inquiry." The maid answered Li Wei's doubts in a timely manner, "Actually, Mr. and Madam still do not want the young lady to continue to be involved in this matter."
