[Exorcism] Parallel Trap

Different from the poor law and order and work efficiency, the file management of the Municipal Police Department is unexpectedly comprehensive, and the personnel information from more than 20 years ago is fairly detailed.

So despite all the hard work, the rabbi found the file he wanted-the personal resume of the policewoman Herbleska.

Originally, after rushing through the periodical room of the library, he didn't figure it out for a while, but the rabbi suddenly remembered the name when he came to the police station for business, so he planned to check it out along the way.I vaguely remember that the handwritten word "Innocence" in the blank space of the page seems familiar.

The basis for this speculation is a bit far-fetched, but the rabbi just intuitively believes that this person has some kind of connection with the holy project, and the more he thinks about it, the more he becomes convinced.

The content in front of me is the same as that written in the biography: this beautiful female police officer is capable and extraordinary, and has solved many major and important cases. Women don't give way to men.

What really caught the rabbi's attention was a case of human trafficking.

"In September 1836, in the case of child abduction in Shihe Township, police officer Herbleska had a direct confrontation with the gangsters, unfortunately died in the line of duty, and was posthumously awarded special merit."

This case was also mentioned in the previous biography, but after reading more detailed information, the rabbi paid more attention.Because he saw a certain name among the members of the special task force-Alkem C. Rubellier.

The general of the year also participated in this case?

Not surprisingly, it was no secret that Rouberier had worked in the police department before forming the order.However, according to the records, Ruberlier, who was already the head of the internal investigation department at the time and was at the same level as Herbleska, also participated in the operation in her team, which is very important in terms of position or department. Not quite right.

Or, the bureau attached great importance to this case at the time?

Stone box town...

kidnapping case...

correct!Suddenly, the rabbi remembered that the general had disagreements with the police superintendents in a case meeting, and even contradicted each other. In the end, the conflict intensified, and he resolutely resigned from all positions and left the police station.

And the case at the center of the contradiction is——

"Xiao Zhou, help me check the records related to the child abduction case in Shihe Township in September 1836." Actions reacted before thinking, and the rabbi rushed to the opposite record department with a few strides, "I want all."

The duty officer named Xiao Zhou raised his head, put down what he was doing after seeing the person clearly, and rummaged in a low voice while searching in the file cabinet behind him.

"Shixiang Town...child abduction... Hey, it's this case again, are you happy to settle old scores recently..."

Although the last words were not loud, they clearly reached the rabbi's ears.

"Is there anyone else who has investigated this case?" The rabbi asked, vaguely thinking of something.

"Yes." Xiao Zhou, who was looking at the list of archives, answered casually, and paused for a moment in turning the page, as if thinking for a while, and said, "Just two days ago."

The rabbi's heart skipped a beat, and a scrawled signature subconsciously appeared in his mind.

is it him?

"Oh, I found it."

Xiao Zhou's voice called the rabbi back from his thoughts, and a stack of yellowed files was handed to him. The rabbi reached out to take it, and immediately flipped through it.

The case back then was either big or small.More than a dozen children in Shixiang Town went missing one after another. Although they were finally rescued, it cost the senior police officer his life.In that operation, Herbleska personally led the team. After finding the suspect's den, most of the team members restrained the opponent from the front, while she led some subordinates to sneak in from the rear, waiting for an opportunity to break through.Among those subordinates was Rubellier, who was about to be promoted to the head of the internal investigation department at that time.

However, the surprise attack that was originally surefire unexpectedly hit the enemy's ambush.It happened suddenly, and the combatants who were deep in the rear were quickly dispersed and lost contact after being attacked.Roubellier was the only witness when Herbleska was killed.

After the missing child was found, the police quickly closed the case, but the results of the investigation of the culprit were very vague.At that time, the director personally struck down the finalization of the case, but Rubelier raised objections, and his attitude was very tough. He repeatedly asked to continue the investigation, but all of them were dismissed, and he was punished for it.Soon after, he abruptly resigned from the police force.

It is conceivable how weak and powerless the generals at that time were in the face of those high-level military officers with absolute decision-making power.

Looking at the past, the rabbi suddenly understood Ruberier's astonishing obsession with status and power.However, it was surprising that he would have such a tough attitude towards this kind of case back then.

After reading it, the content after that became a little boring. The rabbi browsed through paragraphs of text and recorded them all in his mind, but when his eyes moved to the list of rescued children, he paused for a moment, and the point was another familiar name—— —

Howard Link.

This is a street located in the south of the city. It is not remote, not central, and nothing special. Like many other streets, it is just a place that can be seen everywhere.But at this time, maybe it was the weekend, or maybe the weather was very good, but the streets were lively and full of people's voices.

Toys and food are always the most attractive to children, and there is no shortage of these two things on this street, so the children brought out to play by adults naturally have fun here.A few cartoon characters in puppet costumes on the street held large bundles of colorful balloons, shook their bulky heads and greeted passers-by, and were soon surrounded by excited little guys.Some small and weak children were left outside, very anxious, tried their best to get in but couldn't squeeze in, some were accidentally pushed to the ground, and a bag of food in their hands flew out.A bicycle happened to be approaching, and it was about to collide with it. Suddenly, a white shadow flashed, and the next moment, the little guy on the ground was hugged and moved aside.

"Thank you, big brother." The little guy blinked his eyes and grinned to thank him.

And the man just smiled, put him down, and looked under the hat to the ground beside him.There were scattered pastries that the child dropped just now, and the newspapers used for wrapping were crumpled and scattered aside at the moment, revealing a section of a new wanted warrant.

Sure enough, it is everywhere.

Allen thought about it, pulled down the brim of his hat calmly, and walked around the crowd.You can see such wanted notices almost everywhere you go these days, even though he is covered with a hat and mask, he still feels like a pain in his back.

He knew that what happened in the past few days was just the beginning. With the ability of the religious order, he would definitely send more and more difficult people to hunt him down. At that time, it might only be a matter of time before he was caught.So before that, he must find the so-called "heart" as soon as possible, and destroy it as Dr. Zu said.

But helplessly, these days he has searched almost all the places related to Mana that he can think of, but he still has no clue, and almost exposed his whereabouts.In fact, he doesn't know anything about that "heart". He has no concept of shape, size, color, etc., so he can only search for it blindly.What's more, you have to be on guard against those chasing soldiers who are like tarsus maggots. It's just a dream to find something that the general hasn't found for so many years under such circumstances.

Besides, Allen really didn't want to do anything with the members of the sect.Although he doesn't know the people he has encountered so far, but if the next time he encounters happens to be a rabbi or Kanda, how will he face it?

Now he seems to be alone again, with no companion, no belonging, no direction, only the hasty entrustment of a dead person, and those full of doubts that cannot be pursued.The only thing he can do is to grope aimlessly and flee in embarrassment.

The street below was not what it used to be.Allen remembered that Mana had brought him here when he was a child. At that time, it was just a piece of barren grassland, and an unknown small river flowed through it, watering a small piece of farmland.Mana said that this was a place where he and a very good friend often visited. They would walk, fish and chat by the river together.After so many years, the former small river has disappeared, the former grassland has been covered with cement, and there are many tall buildings.And Manner would never know.

There are more and more pedestrians on the side of the road, and the surrounding area is also bustling. Some cheerful music is faintly heard. Allen looked up, only to find that there is a big circus in front of him. It seems to be doing something today. Those wearing puppets before Pretending to be publicity is probably the staff here.At this moment, some clowns in funny costumes and a few puppet figures in the shape of rabbits and bears are standing outside the gate of the circus enthusiastically attracting customers.

The swarming crowd occupied most of the road, Alian put on a tunic collar, and walked nonchalantly, when a "grizzly bear" just happened to walk up to him, pointing in the direction of the gate and waving his hand at him, he just wanted to Shaking his head politely, a few passers-by who were attracted to watch also came forward, surrounded him under push and push, and he couldn't get away for a while.A clown with a big red nose came over to hand out candies, and a pink "rabbit" wearing a bow tie was next to him. People who were trying to earn small gifts quickly gathered. The crowd made Allen feel a little uneasy, and turned around with difficulty. Just as he was about to leave behind, the "tiger" in overalls and the "elephant" holding a promotional board greeted him one after another.Huge bodies surrounded the surroundings one after another, quickly covering up the light, making it difficult for passers-by who were separated to notice the situation here.

And just when Allen was vigilant and wanted to rush out subconsciously, his arms tightened suddenly, and before he could react, his body was held back by the "Grizzly" behind him, and the two in front of him The puppets also rushed over at this time, and with a glance from the corner of their eyes, a cold light flashed under the promotional board in the "elephant"'s hand.

Just when the blade touched the first strand of Alian's hair, the latter squatted down suddenly, twisted his shoulders, took advantage of the opportunity to hit his elbow, and leaned forward the moment he broke free from the restraint, put his palm on the ground, and turned back to sweep his legs , knocking down the "Grizzly Bear" in one breath, and then swooping headlong into the other two and rushing out.The whole process didn't take more than two seconds, and even after the young man forcibly rushed out, the shaved silver hair didn't have time to fall into the dust.However, at the moment when Allen flashed past another puppet and was about to take another step, a hood suddenly covered it, his eyes darkened, and his heart sank suddenly along with his shoulders.

Oops!

His field of vision was swallowed up by the darkness, and a sharp sense of crisis was approaching. Allen could almost feel the sharp blade rushing towards his face in the strong wind.But just before he reacted instinctively, there was a muffled groan from beside him, pulling his arm to let go, followed by a crash and the sharp sound of a sharp weapon piercing through the air, Allen pulled Putting off the hood, he suddenly turned around, but the black figure that broke into his line of sight shook his heart suddenly.
