Trouble, maybe not necessarily...
He looked at the young man pushing the door open and the man coming in behind him, and a second sentence came to his mind.
The two visitors were not familiar to him, but they were not completely strangers either.
They all met once and even had brief exchanges.
But it only lasted for a short time, and then I heard about the two people's respective situations in magazines, the Internet, and even other people's exchanges.
A rare user of dark power and a well-known warrior of light.
If he had seen these two special combinations at any other time, it would definitely be troublesome, but recently, he felt that he might know the reason why the former came to find him.
"Good morning, Mr. Linton, and His Excellency the Holy Sword User."
Facing these two distinguished guests in every sense of the word, he stood up and greeted them, but at the same time, he felt a little embarrassed.
After all, he couldn't ask others to sit down.
And the young man among the two was looking towards the corner where the chairs and sofas should be.
It seems that he has already noticed the unique furnishings of this office.
"Good morning, magician, but don't pay attention to me." He held the leather hat on his head and raised it, like a free and easy man like a cowboy in Anmei District, he just greeted him like this. His title was enough to prove that the other party also remembered him, but he also Just remember.
"I came with him. You two can just chat. I'll just..." He said, subconsciously looking back at the door, and then froze.
He also realized how special this office was.
I originally wanted to sit on the edge, but now I can't think of it.
This also made El-Melloi a little embarrassed. Just when he was about to say something to ease the atmosphere, he heard the young man say: "Good morning, His Excellency El-Melloi II, please accept this meeting gift."
As the other party spoke, he took out two beautifully packaged gift boxes and a bottle of black tea from his briefcase.
Put it on the table without even a cup.
"I heard that while you like some strategy games, you are also suffering from stomach problems. This is my small sincerity. Please don't refuse. After all, it is not an exaggeration to say that Miss Gray's assistance that day was a life-saving grace."
"Gray is just my student."
Looking at the two gift boxes, Weber did not reach out, but just emphasized this point.
"I could tell you where she is, but these things..."
"The gifts for her are also prepared, as well as gifts from Ms. Morgan and Miss Desert Hero." Omer raised his hand and tapped the briefcase in his hand, "And my habit is to have a gift for all the people I want to visit. It is necessary to prepare a meeting ceremony.”
"Are you still planning to see Morgan?" Weber frowned slightly.
"I also considered passing it on through Miss Grey," Omer said, looking at the other party's frown, and immediately asked, "But it seems that she has encountered any trouble recently?"
"It's not troublesome, it's just that Alter's activation tissue was stolen half a month ago, and she was named as a suspect."
"Alt's activated tissue?"
"That's right, it's the goods you shipped originally," Weber said, glancing at Hong Kai, whose eyes became serious, and then looking at Omo again, "When the goods are delivered, Yuechi Logistics and your Penguin Logistics will have nothing to do with each other. , and less than a week after that, it was stolen, stolen from the Spiritual Science warehouse at the Clock Tower headquarters."
"But she, Miss Gray and Miss Desert Hero supported me half a month ago." Omo raised his hand and twisted the bridge of his nose.
"Usually, a person who is considered a suspect will have her freedom restricted, but when most departments of the Astronomy Department are willing to prove her innocence, and she herself is powerful enough, the attitude of the Legal Affairs Department is just observation."
Isn’t that just plain impossible to beat?
Just like some guys who clearly carry the name of "Seal Designation" but can wander around.
It can't be said that he is innocent, but he can't do anything to the other party at the same time.
Omo was speechless, but felt something was wrong.
What does this have to do with my inconvenience to see her?
"Is there any new progress in the case recently?"
"Since ten days ago, a theory began to circulate in the Clock Tower: Morgan cooperated with your Penguin Logistics, and stole Ort in order to bring down Yuechi Logistics."
"Very imaginative."
Omer thought about the Penguin Logistics chat room in the past few days, which was full of daily work complaints and meal appointment records. The internal chatter of the clock tower obviously failed to really reach Penguin Logistics.
"Not many people believe this statement, right?"
"Indeed, neither Gray nor Miss Desert was implicated."
"But my visit to Ms. Morgan right now will help fuel the rumors."
"You're just like Gray and the others. If the rumormongers can make such a big circle, then they definitely don't mind making another circle."
"We are here, and many people saw us on the road. I thought Mr. Kai was famous enough." Omer said, turning to look at Hong Kai.
"You are also famous. I thought they all knew about your deeds." Kai would not take the blame, "But I said these people just looked at me without saying hello. When we bought drinks, we didn't see anyone else coming. Use the vending machine.”
"This is no longer important. What is important is that I came to the Clock Tower," Omer said, looking at El-Melloi II again, "I even stepped into your office."
"Contact Gray through me, contact Morgan through Gray," El-Melloi II said calmly facing the devil's gaze, "It's not convincing, and it's even taken for granted, but the other party can tell it, and the truth is not far off. , it’s just a physical sample that has nothing to do with Oort.”
"I think Chaldea is looking for the real prisoner? What did Mr. Holmes say?"
El-Melloi II was not surprised that Omo mentioned the other party, but just shook his head: "He can't come to this world."
"? Mr. Moriarty can come over."
"You're supposed to know about location theory?"
Omer was silent for a moment, then suddenly asked: "...you took his place?"
"This is a bit abrupt."
"My information contains the fantasy mystery literature "The Casebook of Lord El-Melloi II"."
"It's undeniable," Weber's subtle expression seemed like he had seen the movie in which he was the protagonist, "but there is more than one detective in this world."
"I consider the forensic eye to be a limited specialization of deduction."
"…I don't think Mr. Holmes's position should be so cramped."
"Then don't mention this." Omo, who had been chasing after her just now, suddenly let go of the topic simply, which made the other party seem a bit uncomfortable.
Then he added: "Since Holmes didn't come, Chaldea should have considered entrusting you."
With such a rapid rhythm, El-Melloi II took over without any pressure: "Give up, it's meaningless."
"What do you mean?" asked Homais.
"Anyone with eyesight can see that Morgan was wrongly accused, but we have no suspect at all."
"These are not words that Lord El-Melloi II would say."
"After all, that's how the world is."
Weber said unhappily.
"To find the suspect, we first have to lock the target, confirm the method, and consider the reason, that is, who did it, how it was done, and why it was done. But in the world of magicians, we usually do the opposite."
"We can't determine 'how' or 'who did it.' There are cases where unnatural forces are involved. Both of these elements can be easily covered up. All we can determine is 'why'."
"Because the motivation, or the 'human heart', remains unchanged. Even if the magician's way of doing things deviates from humanity, they still have the weakness of the human heart."
Kai, who heard this not far away, nodded slightly in approval, but Omo just rubbed the tip of his nose with his index finger as if thinking, and waited until the other party finished speaking before saying:
"It's appropriate to start from motivation, but with your knowledge, you can actually lock in the magician's type of magic, right?"
"As long as the supernatural power system is complete enough, the 'how' part is still meaningful."
Even if the technology is complete enough, it is enough to check the monitoring. If there is an intrusion, then trace the traces of the intrusion. The problem of design is the ebb and flow of technical confrontation.
The private sector occasionally produces many capable criminals, but it is not impossible for the government to come up with a more targeted system.
"Of course it can be said," Weber said calmly in response to Omer's argument, admitting his own shortcomings, "but I don't know much about magic, or magic, and source energy in this world."
"Are you confident?" he asked Omer.
"I am confident that I can see the opponent's tactics. In this world where there is energy and technology, even your monsters and Ultraman have them."
