Mage Veigar

Chapter 807 Clues
The person speaking is the regional team leader responsible for the eastern suburbs.

With his fat body and gorgeous attire, it is easy to mistake him for a successful businessman rather than an intelligence agent.

In fact, his apparent identity is indeed a businessman.

As the largest retailer and catering industry leader in the East District, his department stores and chain restaurants are located in every corner of the East District, and these stores have become the eyes and ears of the intelligence organization, monitoring the entire East District.

without any exaggeration.

After several years of development, every branch is well aware of the civilians in the radiation zone. After all, in this society, no one can live without shopping or eating.

Under such a dense surveillance network.

As the regional team leader of the East District, he actually had access to a suspicious piece of intelligence.

A few days ago, a group of five unfamiliar faces appeared in a department store near the wealthy area, one of whom vaguely looked like a sub-dragon.

The department store was actually operating at a loss. The rich had their own estates, and most people collected goods from the city. Few people would go to the department store to buy things. Only a few servants frequented the store. The only reason it had been operating at a loss was because it needed a surveillance point.

So as soon as these five unfamiliar faces appeared, they attracted the attention of the intelligence agents.

The intelligence agent reported the information to him in time.

But this is just a doubt after all, and no one can guarantee whether he is a guest of some noble family.

Since it was a wealthy area and each household had an independent estate, he did not send anyone to conduct an in-depth investigation because a series of high-ranking officials such as Ilo, Menno, Tenniel, Hausman... and big businessmen from home and abroad lived there.

This of course includes himself.

It is precisely because his home is there that he deeply understands how terrifying the people living in that place are.

If a small fry like him dared to take people to search, he would not be stopped, but if he was hated by those dignitaries, it would not be a fun thing for him.

It’s not that we don’t want to check, but that we dare not check.

So despite many doubts, he chose to ignore them.

Once the report is submitted, Qilis will definitely order him to investigate. If he goes, it will anger those senior officials. If he does not go, it will be tantamount to disobeying orders, and he may even lose his life. Therefore, ignoring it is the most correct choice.

He could only pray that his luck was not so bad that the suspect happened to appear in his jurisdiction.

Besides, which assassin would be so bold as to rent a house in a wealthy area full of dignitaries? Most assassins would choose to live in chaotic and easy-to-hide slums.

But things are different now.

As an intelligence officer and businessman, observing people's words and expressions is the most basic skill. He keenly discovered that the head of the organization, Celis Rodney, looked a little different after returning from the palace.

If he continues to hide this matter.

Then, this responsibility will have to be borne by him.

We are all in the intelligence business, so we all know each other. Everyone knows what kind of person Silis was in the past. She was a terrifying person known as the "underground queen" in the empire. From the five-star generals of the empire to the peddlers, the number of people who died in her hands was probably so many that she herself couldn't count them.

In view of this.

He didn't dare to hide the matter any longer and reported the information to Celis Rodney.

It is better to anger those dignitaries than to die at the hands of Qi Lisi. After all, the county magistrate is not as good as the current one. "Rich area..."

After hearing the other party's trembling report, a light bulb went off in Qilis's head and she understood the key.

“The most dangerous place is the safest place?”

Qi Lisi smiled like a rose: "You really carried out this sentence from beginning to end. It's a pity that this is Saint Laurent City. I finally caught you on the tail."

Stand up.

Qi Lisi pointed at the East District Team Leader and said, "Come with me to the wealthy area in the eastern suburbs. I will investigate there myself."

With the intervention of Silis, the matter was easily resolved.

Because in the entire Jialan Empire, no one dared not give face to Celis Rodney.

Especially those who followed Vega the earliest, like Iroh, they knew how important Celis Rodney was to Vega. This could be seen from the fact that Celis was allowed to live in the palace.

As a subject, he is the only one who enjoys this honor.

Therefore, Qilisi took the lead and no one dared to stop her. A group of high-ranking officials and wealthy businessmen actively cooperated with Qilisi and explained everything they could, which eventually allowed Qilisi to find clues.

The person who finally provided the clue was her partner, Admiral Tenniel Dahlberg.

When Celis visited his mansion, Tanier told Celis, "About ten days ago, a notice of sale was posted on a small manor next door, but it was removed in less than a day. I didn't suspect this at first, but one day my servant told me that he saw a ghost when he passed by the manor next door."

"That means no one lives in the manor next door now?"

"There are probably no signs of human activity."

"perhaps?"

"Because the other countries are going to attack the Jialan Empire again next year, I have been busy training the army since I received the order from His Majesty. I have basically no energy to take care of those unimportant matters, so I only know these."

"A ghost..."

Celis smiled slightly, and then said to Tanier: "I am sorry to bother you, General, to rest. Please help your Majesty in the war next year. I will take my leave now."

"As it should be."

Tanier grinned and said, "To be honest, I can't wait for the next war. If I win this war, my name will be praised for eternity. I never thought that I, a general of a fallen country, could once again usher in a moment of glory."

"The general is being modest."

Celis said goodbye to Tanir and returned to the palace to meet Vega.

"Is it really the wealthy area in the eastern suburbs?"

In response to Vega's question, Silis replied, "I have basically determined the enemy's hiding place, but in order not to alert the enemy, I did not send anyone in to investigate without permission. I came directly to report to you, so I can't guarantee that it is 100% correct."

"You did very well."

Vega said admiringly: "Given their strength, once you go in to investigate, I'm afraid you will be exposed immediately, and then you will definitely scare them away. Therefore, for me, basic certainty is enough, and then it's our turn to fight back."
