"Excuse me, what happened here?" Hearing the noise coming from downstairs, and then the call of the housekeeper, Leo put down the pen in his hand, stood up, walked downstairs, and saw the man holding the housekeeper.

The temporary housekeeper and some servants he hired pushed aside several patrol policemen, so they asked slowly.

"Good afternoon, sir!" The captain of the police saw that Leo's temperament and clothing were a bit unusual, so he restrained his aggressive attitude slightly, raised his police hat slightly, and greeted Leo.

Leo nodded in response and asked, "Mr. Police, is there anything I can do for you?"

The captain said solemnly: "A group of extremely vicious pirates have sneaked into the city. The city hall requires a thorough inspection of the entire port city. Even the city council building is included in the inspection, so we hope that you can cooperate with us in the inspection.

one time."

Leo nodded and said: "Since it is an order from the city hall, we are willing to cooperate. Butler Robert, you will lead these policemen to inspect the house. As long as the request is not excessive, we will try our best to cooperate. Do you understand?"

"Yes sir." The butler leaned over and responded.

After Leo finished his instructions, he ignored the matter and turned back to the study. He continued to finish the next article that he was going to give to Staff for publication. This time, the content he wrote was more radical than the previous articles.

, has added a bit of content from the book of witchcraft transformation, which describes the experiments of transplanting the organs of certain special animals into the human body so that the human body can obtain certain innate abilities of those animals, and has recorded several examples of failed experiments.

These examples of failed experiments are not imaginary, but real cases that Leo conducted when he conducted relevant experiments. However, he slightly modified them, removing all the content related to witchcraft and extraordinary power, and only focused on mentioning

The special creatures used for experiments are creatures with strange abilities.

He believed that with this manuscript, Staff would definitely pay more attention, and when he completed a similar experiment based on this manuscript, the door of the secret organization would be completely opened for him.

Just when Leo wrote the final summary at the end of the manuscript and began to check whether there were any errors or omissions in the manuscript, a rush of footsteps came from the laboratory room upstairs, followed by Leo's lower study room, and then

Then I heard the housekeeper's voice blocking the police from entering.

It seems that the police officers must have inspected the laboratory upstairs and saw the experimental items that looked like murder weapons and the remaining blood stains from the autopsy, etc., and had some bad associations.

"Robert, let them in." Leo ordered before the police outside pushed the butler away and barged in.

Then, I saw the police officers pushing open the door and walking in. When they walked in, they all held weapons in their hands. They should be trainee patrol officers, and what they took out were just batons with little lethality.

, while several others took out short swords and hand crossbows.

Leo looked at a few people and asked calmly: "Am I a cruel criminal? I actually asked you to take out your weapons."

The captain said in a deep voice: "Your room upstairs is so scary that people have to worry about your identity."

Leo asked deliberately displeased: "Identity? Isn't it okay for me, an anatomy lecturer in a college, to set up a private anatomy laboratory at home and conduct anatomy experiments on animals? When did the Port of Cape Guia Has the academic climate become so conservative?”

"Lecturer in anatomy?" The police were stunned when they heard this. Only then did they start to look around and found that the room was filled with books they couldn't understand. They also saw the books placed on Leo's desk. Wearing a very eye-catching college appointment letter, and a college lecturer's robe hanging on a hanger.

Seeing this scene, the nervous expressions on the faces of several people immediately relaxed a lot. Although they still did not put away their weapons, they were no longer as serious as when they first broke in.

Although Cape Guia is not a city famous for scholars, scholars can still get respect in this city that is not found in other inland conservative areas, especially those lecturers who are recognized by the college and accepted by the college. Their status is higher than It's no different for some senior officials in the city hall.

The police captain smiled and explained in a calming manner: "I'm very sorry, your laboratory is so surprising, and it's easy to cause misunderstandings, so we..."

"So what now? Am I still the object of your suspicion?" Leo asked, pointing to the weapons in their hands before the other party finished speaking.

"No, of course not." The police captain withdrew his weapon, and then said with some embarrassment: "Although you must have nothing to do with the person we are looking for, we still have an inspection procedure that requires your cooperation with other people in the room." As he spoke, he saw him take out a metal disk engraved with several church holy emblems from his pocket and said, "We need you to put your hands on this disk."

Leo looked at the disk and didn't show any unusual expression. He knew from the beginning that the policeman had this rare item in his pocket that the church used to find and hunt heretics. He also wanted to know about this strange item. What is the effect on yourself?

On the contrary, several servants behind the housekeeper changed their expressions immediately after seeing the disk. Then they slowly moved backwards and tried to leave quietly, but their actions had long been noticed by several police officers. In his eyes, someone stepped forward and stopped at the door of the room, blocking the retreat of the servants.

"It seems that not all of your servants are trustworthy." The police captain turned around, looked at the servants, pointed the weapon in his hand at them, and said, "Come here one by one now. Put your hand on the disk."

Seeing this, the other servants and housekeepers involuntarily stepped aside, moved from the center of the confrontation to the edge, and then looked nervously at the servants who were their companions before.

Seeing that he could not escape, one of the servants could only clarify the matter and said: "The things in your hands are simply the heretical eyes of the Church's hunting team! You are not looking for any pirates at all, you are the lackeys of the Church, and you are looking for us. A free man slandered by the Church as a heretic.”

The police captain said extremely seriously: "I don't know whether you are free people or heretics. I just know that if you don't come up and put your hands on the disc, you will definitely turn into corpses and be taken away by us, so you are the last It's better to obey and do as I say."

After hearing what the police said, the servants knew that the other party must have had murderous intentions, and they had no way to escape. In the end, they could only obediently step forward one by one and put their hands on the disc.

I saw that after their hands touched the disk, they all emitted light red light of different colors. The moment the light appeared, the servants became extremely nervous, but the policemen relaxed slightly.

.

Then, I saw them ordering those people to step aside and letting others touch the disk one by one, as if they were preparing to deal with these people after leaving for a while.

Among the people who touched the disk later, no one with a reddish light appeared. They were all white lights. A few people's white light even showed a milky white color. These people were all very devout believers. They just believed in it.

The gods are just different.

After checking these people, the policemen relaxed their expressions and retracted their weapons, without the slightest hint of tension.

"We have completed the inspection. There is no one we are looking for in your home," the police captain said as he took out a card from his pocket, wrote his name, stamped his official seal, and then

He handed it to the butler and said, "After we leave, you put the card and the door number together, and no one will come to check it again."

After saying that, they were ready to leave.

"Aren't you going to take them away?" At this time, someone pointed at the servants who caused the red light of the disk and asked.

"Our mission is to find pirates, not heretics. Finding heretics is a matter for the church hunting team and has nothing to do with us." The police captain shrugged, then turned to look at the servants who were still stunned and said:

"If I were you, it would be best to leave Cape Guia now and stay far away, because the church will also intervene in the city's defense in the future, and their attitude towards you will not be as friendly as ours."

Hearing the words of the police captain, the servants didn't know that they had escaped. They didn't think much about it. They quickly ran out of the study and returned to their rooms. They simply tidied up and found nothing.

After asking the housekeeper for wages, he hurriedly left Leo's apartment.

When the servants ran out of the study, several police officers were also about to leave. At this time, the police captain suddenly thought of something, stopped, turned to look at Leo, and said: "By the way, I almost

I forgot, it seems that you haven’t been examined yet.”

As he spoke, he took out the disc from his pocket again, walked to Leo's desk, and handed it to Leo.

Leo didn't say anything, he just put his hand on the disk, and then saw that the disk didn't react at all.

"What's going on?" The police captain was also surprised by this phenomenon. He took the disc back and looked at it, and said to himself: "Is it broken?" He followed him and shouted to the housekeeper: "Come here and touch it.

one time."

The housekeeper hesitated for a moment, then walked over and touched the disc. This time the disc reacted normally and emitted a faint white light.

Seeing that there was nothing wrong with the disc, the police captain handed the disc towards Leo in confusion, but after Leo touched the disc, there was still no reaction.

The police captain looked confused and couldn't help scratching his forehead with his hand. He turned to his colleagues and asked, "Do you remember those church people mentioned this phenomenon?"

Several policemen shook their heads, and one of them said: "They only said that if the black light is emitted, there will be a big problem. The red light is just for people with heretical ideas, the white light is for believers, and the purple light and golden light are for the church."

The clergy never mentioned what it would be like to be without light."

Hearing his colleague's words, the police captain turned his head and looked at Leo, who looked calm, and then looked at the college lecturer's appointment letter on Leo's desk, and said: "Since it's not black, it's fine. Let's not get into trouble."

After saying that, he turned around and left the apartment.

"Robert, go to the market and find some servants to take over the work of those people." After the police left, Leo ordered the butler, then walked to the clothes rack, picked up his coat, put it on, and then picked up the coat.

He put the manuscript on the table in the document bag and walked out of the study. As he went downstairs, he also ordered: "Wait a moment, when Madam comes back, tell Madam what happened just now."

"Okay, sir." The butler nodded repeatedly.

After coming out of the apartment, Leo looked at several police officers patrolling the street, and then at the clergymen preaching at both ends of the street corner. Then he boarded the carriage called by the temporary butler and ordered to go to Stav's Surprise.

Mainland Magazine.

As the carriage was driving, Leo opened the curtains on the window and looked at the situation on the street outside, falling into deep thought.

He knew very well that the current martial law and large-scale searches in Cape Guia Port must be related to the Upper Station and the person imprisoned by them, but what puzzled him was that the church was also involved in this matter, and it seemed that the martial law and the

The leading force in the search.

For example, the clergy who stand on the street preaching appear to be just ordinary preachers, but in fact each of them has strong fluctuations in divine power, and their bodies are much stronger than ordinary people. They should be some who have been specially trained.

Hunting knights who train and engage in hunting heretics.

In addition, in addition to police patrols in various urban areas, there are also church knights patrolling at night, giving people the illusion that Cape Opia Port has become a church city.

This incident also aroused dissatisfaction among college students and some lecturers, but these dissatisfactions were suppressed by the college's senior management. Even the dean of Holy Prayer College, who was also the dean of the college, appeared in person at the college to express his gratitude to everyone in the college.

Issue an admonishment, or even a warning, to ask everyone to stay at home or in the academy during this period and not to go out.

This is the first time that the dean of the Academy of Holy Prayer has issued a warning to everyone in the college in such a serious manner. This has also caused a lot of commotion and uneasiness, but everyone knows that it is obvious that the dean of the Academy of Holy Prayer is not joking this time.

All the people who had made trouble in the past were a lot more honest this time, and even some experiments in the college that originally involved heresy were temporarily suspended, including Leo's public anatomy class.

Now the situation in the city has become a little weird, and it is different from what Leo expected. For this reason, Leo asked Sylvia to collect relevant information from the underground intelligence organization she controlled. At the same time, he also took advantage of the opportunity to submit a manuscript to get more information from Sri Lanka.

Let's go to Taft to find out what's going on.

What surprised him was that when he arrived at Staff's magazine, the editor of the magazine said that Staff had not been to the magazine for several days and had been staying in the Holy Prayer Court these days.

Leo, who had learned Staff's whereabouts, thought for a moment, then ordered the carriage again to go to the Holy Prayer House.
