Age of Mysticism Chapter 192

  Chapter 192 First meeting

   Qingkong told Luke about his encounter with Pan. At this time, Luke was reading the letter written by the eldest princess Agatha.

   It was sent from the imperial capital together with a personal letter, and there was also a promotion order.

   "Inspector Meteor Star, hello! I am extremely surprised by your deeds and achievements in Raging Waves City. This has greatly exceeded my expectations for you and made me re-examine your ability.

  His Majesty also admires you very much, and has the idea of ​​transferring you back to the imperial capital to entrust you with important tasks, but I refused!

  The situation in Raging Waves City is still unstable, if we have to transfer you back rashly, we may lose our current achievements. The stability of Raging Waves City is related to the governance of the empire for a long time in the future. I need you to continue to take care of the overall situation. I hope you can understand my intentions and be prepared to stay in Raging Waves City for a long time.

  I guarantee that when you complete the mission and return to the imperial capital, you will definitely get the reward you deserve.

  In addition, in view of the particularity of the situation in Rage City, I have specially opened a one-way correspondence channel with you. I will promptly tell you about the changes in Imperial Capital's policies regarding Raging Waves City, and you must also tell me what happened in Raging Waves City in detail.

   It is best to write me a letter every day, no more than two days apart.

  There is a piece of information telling you: After the kingdom of Leo, the empire's maritime neighbor, was overthrown by rebels, a large number of Leo nobles fled into the empire to accept political asylum. In view of the previous friendly relations between the two countries, we have given them treatment consistent with their status.

  The subjugated nobles behaved quite peacefully at the beginning, but in recent years they have often held secret gatherings. In the past few days, many Leo nobles are gathering in Rage City.

  The empire has established formal diplomatic relations with the Rio Republic, and the relationship between the two countries has also changed from hostility to relative friendship. It's just that the Republic of Leo has always asked the empire to extradite these exiled nobles, which is also a major obstacle to the closer relations between the two countries.

  The empire has no intention of compromising the Leo Republic on this issue, nor does it want these Leo nobles in exile to do things that will affect the relationship between the two countries.

   This is the job of the Imperial Secret Service, keep an eye on them!

  Luke read the letter several times, thinking about the information Agatha revealed to himself in the letter.

   First of all, the tone is not that the superior is talking to the subordinate, which confirms Luke's conjecture that Agatha already knows that she is a counterfeit. But she also knew that she had nothing to do with this counterfeit, she could only maintain a tacit understanding that everyone had seen through but didn't.

   This relationship makes Luke very satisfied, and it is also the state he hopes to maintain.

   Then the emperor of the empire wanted to transfer his own back to the imperial capital.

  Yeah, I made a lot of trouble in Rage City, and almost caused a riot. Amidst the joy of receiving the money, the emperor of the empire was probably still quite a bit apprehensive. Transferring himself, a troublemaker, back to the imperial capital, not only can he control the situation in Raging Waves City, but he can also reap another benefit from the new nobles.

   Agatha's refusal to transfer herself back to the Imperial Capital was expected. She didn't have the guts to solve this mystery yet, so she could only find a way to persuade the Emperor to let Inspector Meteor stay in Raging City.

  In short, Agatha wiped her **** clean this time; if anything happens in Raging Waves City in the future, she will continue to cover it up.

  The second half of the letter is normal business.

  Pan wants to restore the country, of course he can rely on those Leo nobles in exile. In the past, he had been in secret contact with these exiled nobles. This time, he asked those exiled nobles to come to Rage City under the pretext of making friends with Mrs. Mihir. He probably wanted to use this opportunity to give them more substantial help.

  Golden Shield Empire did not recognize the legitimacy of the Leo Republic at first, and even once sent troops to defeat the newly established republic, intending to annex this land into the empire's territory. But this time the empire stood on the opposite side of history. The Leo Republic was supported by many countries. The Seven Years War did not allow the empire to conquer the Leo Republic. Instead, the prolonged war became a heavy burden for the empire.

   Later, the two countries ceased fighting, and then the two countries established diplomatic relations.

  The former belligerents have become maritime trading partners who value each other very much.

   Now the Golden Shield Empire does not want to have trouble with the Leo Republic on the issue of exiled nobles, but it also does not want to extradite these exiled nobles. On the side of the Rio Republic, they don't want to freeze the already eased relations between the two countries because of these exiled nobles who can't afford to make waves.

   Therefore, although the two countries talk about these exiled nobles every time they meet officially, they can't talk about the results every time.

  In the past, these Leo nobles in exile were quite peaceful, but this time they suddenly gathered in Raging Waves City, which made the Imperial Bureau of Secret Affairs nervous.

  How to deal with it?

  Luke has no idea for the time being.

  Leo's Exiled Nobility is a card that the Golden Shield Empire uses against the Leo Republic. It may never be used in the future, but it must be kept. Therefore, they cannot be allowed to disappear collectively just because they came to Rage City with unreasonable intentions. This would be a major loss of international credit for the empire.

  Besides, Pan is from Shuojin, so if you want to move him, you must have evidence that Shuojin people have to believe.

   Difficult!

  At this moment, Luke suddenly found out, why did he regard himself as a real imperial agent, and began to think in the interests of the empire?

  Luke felt that he was asking for trouble. He shook his head mockingly, and then took out the promotion order.

  The Imperial Bureau of Secret Affairs abolished all branches of the Bureau of Secret Affairs in Raging City except Cape District. On the basis of the Cape Branch of the Imperial Bureau of Secret Affairs, the Bureau of Secret Affairs of the City of Rage was established.

  Appoint Inspector Meteor as the Chief Inspector of the Imperial Bureau of Raging City's Secret Affairs, with full authority over the secret affairs of Raging City.

   Promoted!

  Although the power given is what I already have, but having this appointment is justified, it can be regarded as a reward for the eldest princess to appease herself.

  In addition to being promoted, Agatha also gave a lot of substantive things.

  A group of weapons, a group of graduates of the Intelligence Academy. A large bounty is awarded to spies who serve the Empire in Raging City.

   These are all things Luke wants.

  Especially the professional imperial spies, they are much easier to use than those temporary spies. Stalking, kidnapping, extortion, silence... or the spies who graduated from the class did it neatly.

  After reading Agatha's letter and promotion order to himself, Luke picked up a pen and wrote a reply.

   "Respected Your Royal Highness, Eldest Princess! Many things I did in Raging Waves City were forced to do. If I didn't do it... I would have died.

  The current situation is something I didn't expect in advance, and it has become like this step by step. I know that what happened here has caused you a lot of trouble, but fortunately everything is under my control, and the result is also very beneficial to the empire.

   Thank you for what you do for me.

   If there are no special events, I will try to keep Rough City as it is, and try to increase taxes for the empire as much as I can. This is probably what His Majesty wants to see. Now the empire needs new nobles.

   As for Leo's nobles in exile, I'll keep an eye on them. According to the information I got, they do have the intention of restoring the country, and they are planning to communicate with overseas forces through Mrs. Mihir.

  The Secret Affairs Bureau of Raging Waves City will handle this matter well, and it will not affect the relationship between the Empire and the Leo Republic. Please rest assured, Your Highness.

  Next, my main work will be on the development of Cape District..."

   Agatha wrote the letter with sincerity, and Luke's reply was also full of sincerity.

   First of all, she stated her position and let Agatha know that she had to do these things because she had no choice but to play tricks on her.

   Removing Agatha's worries will keep this tacit understanding going.

   Then Luke used a large amount of pen and ink in his vision for the development of Cape District, letting Agatha understand that his only appeal is this urban area. The empire acquiesced that this urban area was under the rule of Meteor, so he would help the abbot of the empire to manage Raging City.

   Of course, it would be even better if the empire could invest some money.

   Luke, who had the idea of ​​asking for money, wrote several pages eloquently, then put it in an envelope and sealed it. Then hand it over to the spies, and send it directly to the imperial capital, Agatha, through a dedicated channel.

  After sending the letter away, Luke checked the time.

  Mrs. Michel also sent an invitation letter to Luke for this reception, but Luke was not interested in this kind of entertainment, so he didn't plan to go.

   Now that Agatha asked Raging City Secret Affairs Bureau to investigate this case, Luke felt that since he took office as a new official, he should give the Eldest Princess this face.

  I went to see Jianpan to see what he wanted to do. After all, the plot has changed a lot because of himself, and now Pan and Yinlai Rage City are not in the game plot.

   Luke rang the bell on the table, and Karina who was next door quickly opened the door and came in.

"Detective... No, it's the chief inspector!" As the inspector's secretary, Kailinna saw the promotion order first, and now she has told everyone the news: "Everyone is going to find a place to celebrate at night, congratulations The Chief Detective has been promoted, and our Haijiao District Secret Affairs Bureau branch has been upgraded to Raging Waves City Secret Affairs Bureau. Come together..."

"Go and play, if I go, you will not have a good time. Drink less, come back early, and don't delay tomorrow's work." Luke packed his luggage: "Go, prepare a car for me, I want Go to the Shining Gold Hotel."

  Hearing that Luke was going to the Shining Gold Hotel, Karina asked: "Chief Inspector, it's so late... are you going to find Director Yin?"

   "Yes, Mrs. Mihir invited me to a charity reception at night. I lack a female companion, so I can only ask the music director for help..."

  Kelina wanted to say that she could be a female companion, but she refrained from saying it when she remembered her identity.

   "Yes, chief inspector, I will prepare the car for you immediately."

  Luke still knows a lot about himself, the female secretary whose emotions are written all over her face. He smiled and said: "Don't think about it, Director Yin is from Shuojin. I asked Director Yin to go to Mrs. Mihir, just to get some more money from the World Bank. Haijiao District needs too much money .”

  Kelina remembered that Shuojin people cannot have lust, and her mood immediately became cheerful.

   "The Chief Inspector needs to work so late, it's really exhausting!"

  Luke drove to the Shuojin Hotel alone, and Pan left the door alone in the room.

   The sound of the door opening was surprised by Luke's sudden visit.

   Knowing that Detective Meteorite came this time to invite him to a reception, Yin did not refuse, and soon changed his clothes and went out with Luke.

  Getting into the car, Luke asked Yin: "I didn't see Director Pan, isn't he here?"

The sound in a good mood replied: "Pan said he had something to do, and he went out just after nightfall. I talked with Pan about the investment in Haijiao Port. He also thinks that Haijiao District has very good development prospects, especially Under your supervision, Inspector.

  We have submitted our proposal to the head office, and we believe we will receive a reply soon. "

  Yin's speed of doing things was somewhat beyond Luke's expectations. After all, their main job in Raging City this time was to find eggs, and it was completely optional to invest in anything.

   "It's very good, I owe you a favor. With the investment from the World Bank, I can quickly realize my dream. If you encounter any trouble in Raging Waves City, just come to me."

   "Thank you... Detective Meteor, Meteor is your code name in the Secret Intelligence Bureau, can you tell me your real name?"

  "My real name is only known to Her Royal Highness, and if I tell others casually, I will be punished. But when my status is high enough, I can disclose my name. At that time, I will definitely tell you as soon as possible."

   "It's a deal!"

   "It's a deal!"

  When Luke drove to Mrs. Mihir's house, the reception had already started for a while.

  Mrs. Mihir knew that Inspector Meteor was coming, and immediately greeted her personally. She saluted Luke happily: "Inspector, you are able to come, it is really beyond my expectation, every invitation letter before has no way to invite you.

  This is… Director Yin. "

  Mrs. Mihir recognized Yin, and seeing her holding Meteor's arm, she knew that she was the female companion invited by Inspector Meteor.

Yin bowed to Mrs. Mihir: "Mrs. Mihir, hello! My brother Pan has a business trip tonight, and I am bored in the hotel alone. It happened that Inspector Meteor Star invited me to your reception. Please forgive me for coming here rashly." ..."

  Mrs. Mihir said with a smile: "It's really a coincidence that your elder brother, Director Pan, happens to be here. Come in, I am very glad to have two distinguished guests."

   "Pan is here too?" Yin was very surprised.

  Luke also pretended to be surprised and said, "What a coincidence!"

"Director Pan came here with Miss Qingkong. If Director Pan hadn't told you, I wouldn't even know that you were once members of the royal family of the Kingdom of Leo." Mrs. Mihir brought the two of them into the reception, and said to Luke: " The inspector probably hasn't met Miss Qingkong yet, I wanted to introduce you a long time ago, and this time I finally got the chance.

  Miss Qingkong doesn't like this kind of entertainment. She is upstairs, and Director Pan is also there. Come upstairs with me. "

  Luke knew the rules of this kind of reception through the clear sky. According to his current status, he didn't need to communicate too much with the guests in the hall. There is a room on the second floor for high-level guests. If you want to see someone, just send someone to call up the people in the hall.

  Following Mrs. Mihir up to the second floor, in a quiet and elegant room, Luke saw Qingkong, Jenny, and Pan.

  Pan was surprised to see Yin coming in with Meteor, "Yin, why are you here?"

   "Director Yin was invited by me." Luke walked up to Qingkong and stretched out his hand as if meeting Qingkong for the first time: "Hello, Miss Qingkong."

  Clear Sky stood up and shook hands with Luke: "Hello, Inspector Meteorite."
