Chapter 57 Investigator's Daily Life
The morning sun shines down.

Xiao En got up, stretched, and went to the balcony to look at the large pendulum clock in the distance.

The time now is 7:35 AM.

Xiao En simply washed up, heated a cup of milk for himself, added a spoonful of sugar, it is said that you can't add three spoonfuls of sugar, it is easy to attract weirdness, he made a bacon fried egg for breakfast. Xiao En plans to buy some noodles tomorrow. Don's noodles are a bit like spaghetti, and he can cook a bowl of noodles for himself when he has time.

At 8:30, Xiao En changed his clothes, took his coat and umbrella, and prepared to go out.

As time entered May, the Dorne region also ushered in the rainy season. The climate of the entire real world is relatively regular. May and June every year belong to the rainy season, and there will be snow at the end of December. The climate here is so suitable, it should have a lot to do with the natural path.

So far, Xiao En has not encountered extreme climate here. Even in the rainy season, it is rare to see storms like those during typhoons.

"Good morning, Mr. Sean." A greeting rang out.

There was a middle-aged woman cleaning at the stairs. Her name was Yima. She was the cleaner here and had three children, one boy and two girls. She worked very hard and was also responsible for washing clothes.

Xiao En took off his hat and nodded, "Good morning."

After saying that, he brushed past the other person. Yima stood aside at the stairs and carefully put away the tools to prevent the dirty water from getting on Xiao En's trouser legs.

After Xiao En left, she picked up her tools and went back to work.

This is a high-end apartment, and she cherishes the job opportunity here very much. Because there have been a lot more laundry jobs recently, she can get a monthly salary of about 260 dinars, which is almost close to the salary of workers in the dock area.

Although she has to work until late every day, Emma is still very happy because the salary is enough for her to send another child to school.

"Girls should also learn some culture, at least they should be able to read and write."

"When I get married in the future, I won't be called illiterate."

Yima is illiterate, but she is very hardworking.

Outside the apartment building.

Xiao En looked up at the weather, put away his umbrella, and prepared to go to the big clock to take the tram, which can go directly to the platform near the headquarters. The tram ticket in Dorne is a bit expensive, 0.5 dinar per person, and most people still walk. The city hall is promoting a price reduction for tram tickets, but the initial investment costs need to be recovered. In the short term, it is estimated that only white-collar employees can afford it.

Two trips a day means the travel expenses are 30 dinars a month, which is not cheap.

At the bend in the street.

Xiao En saw a little girl selling flowers. She was still wearing a little starched, slightly pale dress, but compared to when they first met, her complexion looked much better, with a hint of the rosy hue that a child should have.

She also changed her skirt. Although it was not a new skirt, she was no longer wearing the patched old skirt.

After seeing Xiao En waving at her, she trotted over with a happy look on her face.

She is very sensible.

She would only come over when Xiao En waved.

"Good morning, Mr. Sean." The little girl bowed politely.

Xiao En took out his wallet, took out a 1 dinar note, handed it to the other party, picked up a carnation, and smiled, "Good morning."

The little girl fished out a 5 Seth coin from her pocket, handed it over, and bowed again to thank him, "Thank you, sir."

"I wish you happy."

Xiao En reached out to take the coin, smiled, and turned to walk towards the pendulum clock.

The tram fare was exactly 5 ses. He didn't like to carry too much change on him, so he bought a flower and used the change to take the tram.

Today is Friday and there are not many people at headquarters.

Benjamin went to Fenggu Town for something. William just came back yesterday and is probably still sleeping soundly today. He drank too much yesterday and brought a beautiful woman back in the middle of the night.

At the entrance of the headquarters, Xiao En saw Qin. She was the most diligent investigator. Every time Xiao En came, she had already started working.

"Good morning, Qin." Xiao En took off his hat and greeted her.

Qin nodded slightly. She was a bit serious and a very decisive investigator.

Xiao En turned and walked towards the library.

During this period, Xiao En would come to the headquarters every morning to read books, mainly looking up information about various strange creatures, which can be understood as biological illustrations, all of which were information collected and sorted out by investigators and night watchmen at the cost of their lives. Xiao En was a wizard, and had the blessing of "reading magic", which far surpassed other investigators in terms of memory knowledge, so in just one month he had become a master in this area.

time flies.

At 12:15 noon, Xiao En got up and went to the cafeteria to eat.

At the entrance of the corridor, he met Jason Tangle who had returned. He was probably the most likely Death Patrolman to be encountered in the headquarters, as the other Death Patrolmen were elusive.

Jason has a big appetite and will report to the cafeteria on time every day unless he has any mission.

It took him about a month to fully recover from his last injury. He went to Dagon area two days ago and only came back yesterday afternoon. His left arm seemed to be broken. At this moment, he was eating and drinking at the door of the cafeteria with a roasted leg of lamb in one hand.

This kind of minor injury is not a big problem and will recover in a day or two.

"Hank isn't back yet?" Sean greeted and went to the cafeteria window to get his tray.

Hank has been on vacation for more than a month. It is said that he later went to find a meditation master and is practicing with him to calm his mind.

He has touched the crazy warning line many times this year, and his rationality is difficult to regain.

The Night Watch's top brass considered letting him retire early.

If they retire normally, investigators will retire around the age of 40, but few people retire voluntarily because they know they can't go back and it is difficult for them to integrate into the lives of ordinary people after retirement.

If Hank doesn't want to retire, he can transfer to a clerical position in the logistics department.

After all, he is experienced.

The food in the cafeteria was still very rich today. Xiao En picked up a piece of beef ribs for himself. Today, they provided mushroom soup, which smelled a bit like the smell of a cemetery, the kind he often drank when he was at the butcher's. Xiao En also served himself a bowl. He has been eating more vegetarian food recently to maintain his figure.

The wizard path does not require much exercise, and he cannot eat and drink as much as a warrior every day. Jason's daily exercise involves holding a one-ton iron chain, which is jaw-dropping to watch.

In the afternoon.

Sean jogged along the street. He basically didn't have his daily patrols now, so he jogged fifteen kilometers after lunch all the way to the Roman Palace near Wushan.

Of course, he didn't come here for entertainment.

Xiao En is not well off at the moment. He has almost used up all his savings on modifying firearms and purchasing extraordinary relics from Chasi. It's okay for him to come to the Roman Palace once or twice a month, but if he comes more than that, his wallet will not be able to bear it.

His destination is the waterfall here.

There was a slight drizzle in the afternoon.

Xiao En stood on a cliff more than 30 meters high, looking at the magnificent Roman palace in the distance, and then slowly took off his clothes, leaving only a pair of tight shorts. Under the sunlight, Xiao En's skin looked very white, with well-defined muscles and strong eight-pack abs, which did not look like a wizard.

"Look at the clothes for me."

"Alert me if anyone approaches." Sean gestured to the invisible servant.

The invisible servant could not speak and just stayed where he was quietly.

Xiao En stretched his body and started doing warm-up exercises. Ten minutes later, he stood on the edge of the cliff, looking at the waterfall under his feet and the ten-meter-deep pool below.

call!
Xiao En took a deep breath, and suddenly jumped down from the waterfall more than 30 meters high. The wind was howling.

In the feeling of weightlessness of falling at a high speed, Xiao En concentrated his mind and maintained a focused state of casting, and then at the moment his vision was locked.

——Dimension jump!
boom.

Water splashed everywhere.

Xiao En suddenly disappeared when he was about six meters above the water surface, and appeared directly close to the water surface, and then he fell into the cold pool of water.

"It's a bit cold today!"

Xiao En swam around in the pool, then went ashore, stretched his body, and climbed back to the cliff from the side.

Flash landing is not so easy to practice.

Xiao En spent a lot of effort to find this suitable waterfall. Even if he made a mistake, no one would die. It was just right for him to practice his ability to master dimensional jump. A month ago, with the help of his teacher, he completed his second specialized spell, which was the 2nd ring dimensional jump. After converting dimensional jump into his second specialized spell, its casting speed and cooling time were improved. In Xiao En's understanding, specialized spells are a bit like innate spell-like abilities.

boom!
Xiao En jumped down from the waterfall again. Practicing dimensional jumping under such circumstances had a huge improvement on him. After getting used to it, his psychological endurance was also stronger, and he felt almost calm inside.

He did this for the mobility of dimensional jumping.

After repeating the exercise several times, Xiao En returned to his original position.

He puts on his clothes.

He found a slope nearby, about four or five meters high. After measuring the height difference, two invisible hands stretched out from behind Xiao En, and then he jumped down.

Two clear handprints suddenly appeared on the soft soil.

Relying on the invisible hand's cushioning, Xiao En's figure paused for a moment when he landed, and then all the force was removed. He knelt on one knee steadily and stood up. Then his figure flew out, and while running quickly, the invisible hand grabbed the branch in front of him.

Xiao En's agile figure was running wildly in the dense woods almost like flying. A branch about five meters high trembled, and two invisible hands grabbed it, and then used the force to let Xiao En's figure whizz past, steadily crossing a large obstacle, and landed on the grass in front.

His figure was still running, and the power of the invisible hand made Xiao En fly several meters like a swing, and then his figure suddenly disappeared on the spot.

——Dimension jump.

Xiao En's figure suddenly appeared on the trunk of a big tree.

"good."

"My control ability has become much stronger." Xiao En stood up and patted the dirt off his body.

He is a transcendent wizard. His physical fitness and reaction speed are not as good as those of a wanderer of the same level, but the invisible hand gives him more room for maneuver. As Xiao En's strength increases, the power of the invisible hand becomes stronger and stronger. It is easier to control the invisible hand than to control his own hands. After all, he can control it with his mind.

"In the Weird Kingdom, the spells that low- and mid-level wizards can master are limited. It's not just a matter of resources, but also the mental pollution caused by digesting more extraordinary relics."

"So every spell I master must be extremely proficient."

With the help of the Invisible Hand, Xiao En has now been able to reach a level close to that of a Wanderer in some aspects. If he adds dimensional jumping, his mobility may be much stronger than that of a Wanderer.

"The teacher can multitask and manipulate 16 invisible hands at the same time."

"This mind is really too powerful."

The more Xiao En trains, the more he feels his own shortcomings. If he were asked to control 16 invisible hands at the same time, he would probably have been twisted into a knot.

Today's daily exercise has just begun.

Xiao En usually goes back around 5:30 in the afternoon, so he can have dinner and take a walk in the dock area to enjoy the breeze.

Of the spells he currently possessed, the others did not have much room for maneuver. Invisibility basically did not need to be practiced, and damage transfer was rarely used. If a wizard's transcendent was injured, the situation would be very dangerous. Not to mention Explosion Pyrotechnics, setting a forest on fire would result in a life sentence.

The other side of the waterfall.

On the rooftop balcony of a luxurious villa, a charming and enchanting figure appeared. She was wearing an exquisite sun hat, with wavy golden long hair hanging down. She was wearing a casual lavender lace dress, which was a bit like a nightgown, revealing a towering snow-white arc. The exaggerated arc made the loose nightgown also show off her graceful and soft curves. In the deep snow-white ravines, an exquisite and huge ruby ​​necklace shone brightly.

"Does he exercise like this every day?" Ms. Diana narrowed her beautiful eyes slightly and stared at the figure jumping down the waterfall in the distance.

Behind her, a pretty girl whispered, "If it doesn't rain, he will basically come."

“It was a bad fall at first.”

"But it only took half a month for him to become more and more proficient."

Lady Diana nodded slightly when she heard this. When she stood up, the abundant fruits on her chest trembled slightly. She said calmly, "Tell someone not to disturb him."

"This guy is interesting."

There are very few wizards who are such action-oriented, and his training method is indeed a bit strange, as if it is just to specialize and strengthen the ability of a certain spell.

Just looking at his mastery of dimensional jumping, he has surpassed many high-sequence transcendents.

She did find it a little interesting that a talented person could work so hard.

The charming beauty quickly left.

She does not often appear in the Roman Palace. Lady Diana has a very special influence in the Kingdom of Dorne. She is not only a member of the parliament, but also a shareholder of many secular companies including private banks. Relying on huge resources, she manages her own network in the Kingdom of Dorne.

Of course, all this is not that important to her, because for a high-sequence extraordinary person like her, the ultimate pursuit is only one, and that is the "Path of Destiny".

Everything she did in the secular world was a preparation for her destiny.

7:30 p.m.

Sean came to the dock area, and after taking a walk along the road, he returned to his apartment on time at 8:30 to rest and digest the knowledge he had memorized today through reading magic.

This feeling of becoming stronger little by little makes him more and more adapted to everything in the real world.

But the accident still happened.

A rapid knock on the door woke Sean up. He picked up the pistol alertly, put on his coat and opened the door.

Standing outside the door was William.

He looked at Xiao En with a solemn expression, a look of grief, and said in a deep voice: "Qin is dead..."

what?
Xiao En's face changed.

Although he didn't have much interaction with Qin, Xiao En had known her for almost a month and they often met in front of the headquarters.

Jean is a very diligent investigator.

Xiao En goes to the cafeteria on time every day to eat lunch, but Qin is often not at the headquarters at noon. She is always running around in every corner of Dorne City.

Now she is dead.

Although Xiao En had already prepared himself mentally for the investigator's death, he was still stunned when he heard the news suddenly.

William said sadly: "She died near the sewer, and her body was eaten by rats. She was just found."
