Chapter 1700: Little Smart Ghost

In the room on the second floor of the small building, sunlight shone in from the window. A blonde, twin-tailed little girl was lying on the office desk, her bun-like face pressed against the desktop, with a puddle of drool beside her mouth.

"Something big is wrong."

With a bang, the door was kicked open, and the blonde, twin-tailed little girl was startled into sitting up. Another bang, and her knees hit the underside of the wooden table, very sour and refreshing.

"It hurts!!"

The blonde little girl's expression was very colorful—dazed, painful, confused, and other emotions combined together.

"Bonnie, you told me before, right? If someone from the Execution Agency looks for you, just say you're not here."

The one who rushed into the room was a man with gold-rimmed glasses. He looked refined and somewhat weak.

"Hmm, hmm, just say I'm not here."

Iseri Bonnie was such a smart bear child. Although she was a detective, she had absolutely no interest in Ghoul-related cases. Even if the reward for such cases was high, one had to have a life to spend it.

"Someone from the Execution Agency came?"

Iseri Bonnie wiped the drool from the corner of her mouth. From her words and behavior, one couldn't tell she was only 12 years old; some would believe she was 20.

"They came."

"Just say I'm not here, hmm~, the reason is that I've gone to Link City to solve a murder case."

"Uh~, this..."

The glasses man was somewhat embarrassed.

"Don't be wishy-washy, say it."

"I... dare not."

"Huh?"

Iseri Bonnie was stunned for a moment, then her pupils quickly constricted, and she asked: "Did an Awakened come to the door?"

"It's their boss... Kuku Lin Bai Ye."

"!!!"

Iseri Bonnie jumped off the leather chair and turned to run toward the window. This smart little thing had already guessed that the situation was bad, very bad.

"Sir, you cannot go in, this is..."

The obstruction outside the door had no effect. The wooden door was pushed open, and the lock on the door flew off directly, with no effect at all.

"They're here~"

Iseri Bonnie had a bitter little face. She quickly returned to behind the office desk, jumped into the chair, and took a deep breath.

Su Xiao pushed the door and entered, Bubu Wang followed behind him, and Amu stood in front of a servant. Compared to Amu, that servant was like a little chick, trembling there.

"Long time no see, Legion Commander Kuku Lin."

Iseri Bonnie jumped off the leather chair, somewhat laboriously pulled over a chair, and placed it in front of the office desk.

Su Xiao looked at Iseri Bonnie with great interest. It was hard to imagine that this blonde, twin-tailed little girl actually had an IQ of over 170.

"Go make tea, the best one."

Iseri Bonnie sat opposite Su Xiao and signaled the glasses man to get drinks and snacks. Although she had been appreciated by Monarch Harold, that was just appreciation. Right now, sitting in front of her was the power-holder of one of the Empire's five major violent institutions.

"Lord Kuku Lin, what instructions do you have for coming here this time? As a citizen of the Empire, I will definitely cooperate fully. Of course, if it involves a commission regarding Ghouls, you know, I'm just an ordinary little girl of only 12 years old. I believe that with your status, Legion Commander Kuku Lin, you would never make any excessive demands on me. You are my idol."

Iseri Bonnie seemed enthusiastic, but in reality, her brain was running at high speed like a quad-core processor. In her view, there were three possibilities for the current situation.

1. This Deputy Legion Commander encountered trouble and needed her help to solve it. Ask yourself, what does the Execution Agency do? The answer is fighting Ghouls, which is equivalent to super dangerous.

2. This Deputy Legion Commander has a secret commission, such as some private matters that are inconvenient for the Execution Agency to come forward. If it were this kind of commission, she would never refuse.

3. This Deputy Legion Commander has special hobbies. Of course, this possibility is the smallest.

"Oh, there is a matter to commission you. Pack up and come with me."

Su Xiao looked at Iseri Bonnie with a smile.

"Legion Commander Kuku Lin, can you reveal a little bit?"

Iseri Bonnie's expression was somewhat tangled, as if she were about to open a Pandora's box.

"Sure. Last night, a Ghoul on Little Sai Street..."

"Hmph~ (tremolo)."

Iseri Bonnie groaned. When she heard the word "Ghoul," she knew it was bad. Originally, Bonnie thought that since she had spoken so firmly before, a big shot like Su Xiao would have to consider some face. As long as the other party had concerns, she could magnify this concern as much as possible and finally withdraw from this matter.

Upon learning that someone from the Execution Agency came to the door, Iseri Bonnie didn't need to think to guess what it was. Last night, a Ghoul attacked civilians on the street. She absolutely had to avoid this matter, absolutely!

"Once it's done, 5,000 gold le, and an imperial position as a sinecure."

"Legion Commander Kuku Lin, this is not a matter of money or position."

Iseri Bonnie had a bitter little face. However, she had already started packing things in the office desk—typically saying no, but her body was unexpectedly honest.

Iseri Bonnie didn't want to participate in this matter? Of course she didn't, but she also knew that Execution Agency = cannot refuse. The reason she displayed the previous scene was just to make herself more valuable. Since she couldn't refuse, she had to strive for a higher price.

"Legion Commander, can you tell me now what kind of trouble we are actually encountering?"

"Very simple..."

Su Xiao explained the matter briefly. Of course, he didn't reveal the death of the royal descendant; that was digging a hole for himself to jump into. As for whether Iseri Bonnie was trustworthy, that wasn't a problem. This bear child had a clean identity, and after feeding her "candy" later, he wouldn't be afraid of her making trouble.

"So that's how it is. In other words, the 'Ghost Ring' faction composed of Ghouls is in Zuer City, and they want to get rid of you, Legion Commander, and Madam Nancy. They can even direct Awakened. Very impressive, huh."

Iseri Bonnie bit her thumb nail, her big eyes staring straight ahead.

"The Execution Agency should have hindered the Ghost Ring, so they want to make the Execution Agency lose its ability to act. Although decapitation is a good choice, well, this method is... too unwise. Give me 2 days, 2 days, and I will definitely find the whereabouts of the Ghost Ring."

"Oh? And if you can't find it?"

"Apologize with death."

Iseri Bonnie laughed. The smile on Su Xiao's face gradually disappeared. A moment later, Iseri Bonnie couldn't laugh anymore either.

"Then apologize with death. 2 days. Find their tracks. You can temporarily dispatch the Awakened under my command."

"Sure."

Iseri Bonnie stretched. She did it on purpose, or rather, she was avoiding risks. Compared to finding the tracks of the Ghost Ring, investigating the Ghoul attacking civilians on the street last night was worse. At least in Iseri Bonnie's view, these were two matters. The former was more complex than the latter, and the latter was more dangerous than the former.

"Then let's start."

Su Xiao stood up and walked out of the room. Iseri Bonnie could only follow. From start to finish, she didn't mention one person: Madam Nancy. Because she didn't want to die yet. If Madam Nancy was a mother venomous snake, then she was at most a cute little fox. Of course, the little fox didn't dare to offend the venomous snake. ===== CHAPTER 1701 =====
