Chapter 331 Postponement

"So, you will go to the capital for two weeks and then come back, if nothing happens on the way."

The first summer vacation after entering the Magic Academy is coming soon, but Annan will not rest much during the vacation because he has already had enough rest before.

During the period before the summer vacation, Annan had been taking a vacation using the excuse of encountering black magic incidents. He was very relaxed.

During the upcoming new vacation, Annan is scheduled to go to the capital with Professor Duran, mainly for research on life magic.

The flight tickets had been booked, and Annan paid some attention to the situation of other allies before leaving.

Private detective Antonio has been living a very stable life recently. He doesn't come to anyone else in particular. He doesn't encounter any big problems. Instead, other people come to him more often for investigation.

Roderick's side is similar. He has completely controlled the underground forces in the entire city. He can be said to be the uncrowned king of the underground. Moreover, there is official secret cooperation and support behind him. It is strange that problems will occur.

"I don't have anything to say here. You already know about the new police chief, so there shouldn't be much more to say."

The new police chief was originally expected to take up this position around March, but for some unknown reasons, he postponed his appointment until the end of last month.

It can also be said that the previous police chief, who was supposed to retire, was kept on for a while longer.

Roderick didn't delve into the reason. Anyway, it was just a lot of secrets among officials that were best not to be known.

"Since the new police chief Linton Leach took office, the official has started the original plan to carry out major construction projects in this city. There is nothing worth mentioning about these things. If it is true, it seems that you have not paid much attention to it. Those two groups of children who stayed with us?”

"Because I know you can take care of them."

Regarding the children with super powers who are now being taken care of by Roderick, as well as the children of the dark race from Paradise Island, Annan cannot be said to be heartless, but can only be said to have no concern at all.

Annan didn't have much interest in those two groups of children. Anyway, he knew their origins and secrets, so he didn't care about other things.

Of course, if something happens, he will come to help.

However, things have always been stable here, and Roderick can handle things very well in order to keep his secret from being exposed.

"Those children of the dark race are relatively easy to take care of, but they have to change a group of nannies every once in a while to avoid too frequent contact and exposing the secrets. However, those children of superpowers may have accidents at any time. "

The gang boss always wants to know the same thing.

"That pharmaceutical company, those so-called Lord of the Rings, has been silent, which is worrying."

"If you want to ask me for information, I can only say that like you, I know nothing about recent events. The former elite white knight has not contacted me since he left."

Annan didn't worry too much at all, because no matter how prepared he was, something would still happen when it should happen.

The main reason is that the enemy is in the dark and we are in the light. The King of the Ring, who has mastered certain material resources, really wants to cause trouble here, and even the White Knight cannot stop it.

Therefore, Annan didn't worry about these things at all and just waited until something happened.

However, just because he, the hidden black magician, can assume such an attitude does not mean that the gang boss here can do the same.

Things involving superpowers involve too many issues, and Rodrick can't just pretend that nothing happened.

"Okay, then we can only maintain the status quo. Also, Annan, what you said before is definitely true? The children of those with super powers are not going to die soon..."

"Did anyone die?"

"……not yet."

Roderick shook his head with a complicated expression.

"Those children seem to have always been very healthy and lively, and they don't look like they are about to expire at all... I don't know those children well, and I don't have regular contact with them, so I can't say that I have any feelings for each other, but Veronica seems to be in a bit deep... …”

"No problem, that lady has a reliable man named Caleb Russ by her side. Even if she is sad, she can recover quickly."

Annan probably knows about Veronica's situation.

Probably because of empathy, Veronica is very concerned about the children of superpowers. The loss of the orphanage in the past really made this lady quite sad.

When she learned that children with superpowers had limited orders, although Veronica didn't show it on the surface, anyone who knew her could see that she was actually very worried.

Annan didn't think this was worth worrying about. Since the other party had already experienced a blow, there shouldn't be any problem even if it happened again.

"If Veronica is a complete dark creature, repeated attacks will indeed cause problems, and the mind will affect the body and lose control. However, because it is not complete, there is no need to worry too much."

Caleb. Ruth had been released from prison before. With this reliable man by her side, even if Veronica couldn't bear the blow, she would finally have someone to rely on.

"If an accident does happen, please contact me immediately."

"Of course I will."

After ending this regular contact, Annan continued to prepare for the upcoming trip.

Annan will indeed follow Professor Duran to the capital, but he will not go with the Life Department Magic Research Team in name only. He will go alone.

This was to reduce and avoid unnecessary social interactions. He had had enough of the last trip.

He is just an insignificant magic apprentice and assistant. The big shots won't pay attention to him, so there is no need to ask for trouble.

Then, just two days before leaving for the capital, an urgent communication was passed to Annan through Roderick.

"Is it possible that I can't go to the Bronze Gate this time?"

After receiving the notice, Annan hurried to Roderick's territory and looked at the telegram filled with cipher text in his hand speechlessly.

"I didn't expect it to be faster here."

The secret letter Annan received came from the female mercenary Anna who went to an unknown place.

The letter sent by the female mercenary Anna through underground channels is not long, or very short.

This is a letter asking for help.

"That guy actually found an experimental base of the Witch Project, right in the south."

After Annan read the letter thoroughly, he immediately burned it.

"Well, it looks like my second trip to the capital will be postponed a little bit."
