Chapter 359

Just then, the door of the interrogation room was knocked.
Deputy Director Shen walked over and opened the door.
The voice of a special division staff member came in from outside:
"Director, Principal Lisa and the Marquis of Lancher of the Meditation Art School are here, and they want to bail this Mr. Wu."
"Bail?" He opened his jacket, inserted the metal rod back into the inner pocket of the jacket, and turned around to look at Wu Fei, "Wait a minute, I'll go take a look."
He closed the door, walked to Wu Fei, bent down and pressed the handcuffs on both sides of his seat, and the handcuffs on Wu Fei's hands were opened.
"Be honest here." He instructed Wu Fei coldly and turned to leave.
Then the door was closed again.
After a while, the door of the interrogation room was pushed open again.
But this time it was not Deputy Director Shen, but an ordinary employee.
Special Division clerk: "Hello, someone bails you to leave, sign here and you can leave."
Wu Fei couldn't believe it would go so smoothly.
He found that the paper handed over by the employee was only a statement of commitment such as "guarantee that we will continue to cooperate with the investigation and will not leave the capital Julien without authorization until the results of the investigation come out."
He still hasn't got his identity certificate, and even if he doesn't want to cooperate or wants to run away, he can't help it.
Wu Fei neatly signed the document, and was then sent out by the other party to the Special Division.
Aunt Lisa and Cardinal were waiting for him in the carriage.
"I've caused you trouble." Wu Fei looked at Aunt Lisa and bowed embarrassedly, "Thank you for saving me again."
Aunt Lisa beckoned him to get in the car: "Good boy, come over here. If I could try to save you and I didn't, I shouldn't."
They returned to 261 Treland Street. Aunt Lisa seemed to be going on a date, so she changed and left.
Wu Fei still couldn't figure out how Shen Xing would agree to let him back. He clearly found out that he was lying, didn't he?
"Did Aunt Lisa invite someone very powerful to rescue me?" Wu Fei asked Cardinals, "I heard that Marquis Lancher came with her."
"It's not very powerful?" Cardinal said, "The marquis has royal blood, but has no actual power. In terms of power, there are very few people who are more comparable to the special department. So it depends on whether the special department is willing. Give it a face."
"Then why are they willing to let me out?" Wu Fei wondered, "It's their deputy director who is in charge of examining me."
"Then I don't know." Cardinal also looked surprised, "It turned out that he personally examined you? Many serious criminals don't have this treatment. Maybe he didn't catch anything, so he let you go? "
Impossible, Shen Xing clearly said that he was "lying" at that time, and it didn't look like he would let him go easily.
Well that means it's not over yet.
The next time he gets caught, he'll have to figure out a way to disable that lie detector.
Wu Fei asked: "Then do you know a polygraph instrument used by the Special Division? It looks like a silver-gray metal rod. As long as you touch one end of it, the person holding the other end can sense the answer. Did the person in question lie?"
"I haven't heard of this before." Cardinal thought for a while, then retorted, "It's impossible to have such an instrument. If you want to verify whether the other party is lying, you can only use Soul Search. However, Soul Search will affect the soul searched. It is now expressly forbidden to inflict serious and irreversible damage on the souls of the victims."
"Really do not have?"
"I'm sure, no. Many of our comrades have been caught, and if they have such a thing, we can't be unaware."
"But the silver-gray metal rod you mentioned is somewhat like a metal staff."
"Metal staff? What is that?" Wu Fei felt a little uncomfortable.
"It is also a kind of staff, which can be used to cast spells, and can also be transformed into swords, knives and other weapons in battle." Cardinal said, "Wait, I seem to have one here, I will bring it to you. Look."
After a while Cardinals came with a metal rod.
Although this metal rod was slightly different from the "polygraph detector" held by Deputy Director Shen in terms of color, material and luster, Wu Fei could still see that they were one kind of thing.
He was fooled.
Shen Xing didn't have any lie detector at all, so he didn't have any conclusive evidence that he was lying. He just subjectively believed that he was lying or deceiving him.
This may be one of the reasons why he is willing to let him back happily this time.
"What's wrong with you?" Seeing Wu Fei's expression wrong, the red bird asked with concern.
"It's nothing." Wu Fei replied with a wry smile.
"Then you have a good rest first, and you have to go to school tomorrow. You have already gone through the entry procedures, and you have to go to work normally tomorrow." Cardinal said.
—
Wu Fei went to school with Hongque the next day. He worked in the school's reference room. He only needed to copy and organize various files and materials. The work was not complicated.
What troubled Wu Fei was that he couldn't get close to Shen Xing for the time being.
In terms of his identity and situation, he should hide from Shen Xing now, but if he wants to protect Shen Xing from the curse, he must approach him.
With Shen Xing's current position and his style of doing things, Wu Fei felt that it was normal for him to be cursed.
At lunchtime, the Red Sparrow told him that the deputy director of the special department went on a business trip to another place today because of a case, and he didn't know when he would come back, but at least he didn't have to worry about it any more these few days, the other party should not come to him again. trouble.
After a week of work in this way, Wu Fei was stopped by Cardinals when he returned to his house on Cui Lan Street on Friday night.
Cardinal: "You will come into the room later, there is a task for you."
"What mission?"
"Save people." Hong Que said succinctly.
The person they want to save is Lady Yucca, the lover of the Duke of Post. Madam Yucca was also a witch, and had provided them with a lot of information and help before.
Not long ago, however, the Duke of Post discovered her identity as a witch. For various reasons, the Duke of Post did not report directly to the Special Division, but kept her privately in his mansion.
"Duke Post will hold a banquet in his house this weekend. We will go to the banquet with Aunt Lisa, and I will go to save people with other companions." Cardinal said, "You have other tasks. "
"What mission?"
"When we go to save people, you need to sneak into Mrs. Yucca's bedroom, find the contact crystal hidden by her, and bring it out." Cardinal said.
"Mrs. Yucca has been using this crystal to contact us before. If the magic power fluctuations are found out, it is easy to find out about us and other witches who have been contacted by it, so we must rush to the Duke of Post and the special secretary. Find and destroy it before."
Wu Fei nodded: "I understand."
Soon it was the evening of the banquet. Wu Fei, Cardinals, and Aunt Lisa all changed into their dresses and took a carriage to the mansion of Duke Post.
The Duke's mansion covers a large area, and during the banquet there were a cloud of guests, with fragrant clothes and temples passing through it. Because no one knew Wu Fei, and he was dressed in ordinary clothes, so no one noticed him.
Not long after the banquet started, Wu Fei sneaked into the bathroom and began to apply the invisibility potion to himself.
There are surveillance magic circles around the Duke's mansion. If you use magic here, you will definitely be discovered, so you can only use potions to hide. But this potion only lasts fifteen minutes, so he must find the crystal and bring it out within fifteen minutes.
After confirming that the invisibility potion was effective, Wu Fei found Mrs. Yulan's previous bedroom according to what Cardinal said, pried the door lock, and rummaged around—
Mrs. Yucca said she had strung the crystals on a platinum necklace and kept it in her jewelry box, which was in the cupboard.
But the problem is that Mrs. Yucca has more than one cabinet and more than one jewelry box. Wu Fei rummaged through boxes and cabinets for a long time, and finally found the target amethyst.
At this time, an explosion was heard not far away.
No, it may be that the Cardinals and the others have an accident.
He hurriedly put the necklace in his pocket, but it was already noisy outside, and the chaotic footsteps in the corridor could be heard in the bedroom.
And his invisibility potion can only last for a minute or two at most, and if he leaves the door now, he will definitely be caught on the spot.
Wu Fei hurriedly ate a pill he bought from the props store that could temporarily increase his physical fitness. Before he could think about it, he chose to jump out of the window.
However, the moment he landed, his invisibility potion failed.
"There seems to be someone there!"
I don't know who shouted, and then a group of people rushed in his direction. Through the light of the banquet, you can vaguely see the security personnel of the mansion.
Wu Fei could only continue to run forward—it seemed to be the backyard of the mansion, and the carriages of the guests who came to the banquet were parked further forward.
The banquet is not over yet, and the carriages are empty.
As the chasing soldiers got closer and closer, Wu Fei jumped on a carriage parked in the shadows before he could think about it.
After the security personnel chased after them, they divided into several teams to search around, but when they couldn't find it, they scattered and left.
Wu Fei breathed a sigh of relief and was about to leave when he suddenly heard a voice in the darkness:
"I heard that a thief has entered the Duke's mansion, and the security guard is looking for the daring little thief."
"What did you take?"
Wu Fei was startled, and before he had time to run, he felt as if his body was frozen, and then a pair of slender hands slipped into his trouser pockets, groping around, lightly tapping his fingers on his legs, and finally took it away The crystal necklace he installed inside.
"So you like this?"
The lighting magic lamp in the carriage suddenly lit up, reflecting the crystal that was held by the man's fingertips and glistening under the light, and also illuminated the face of the other party.
Wu Fei couldn't move, but even with his peripheral vision, he could still see the calm face of Deputy Director Shen.
"Sir, why are you here?"
He almost squeezed the words out of his throat.
The man changed his posture at random: "Is there a possibility that this is my carriage?"
His voice and expression were as cold and ruthless as ever, but there was a hint of imperceptible in his posture... as if seeing the prey thrown into the net...comfortable.
