Release that Witch - Chapter 1297

[Chapter 1263 Future Work]
“Excuse me, excuse me, give up all the trouble!” Manfred squeezed into the crowd, immediately attracting the attention of the group of refugees.
“Who are you?” Someone stopped in front of him with an unhappy expression, “Even if I can’t hold it back anymore, I have to wait
until I feel better, right?”
, it seems that the other party is probably the leader of this group – it is unlikely that he wants to take the woman away in front of a dozen gangsters, and he has no weapons. The only chance is to bring down the leader first. Take advantage of the chaos and take people away.
“I’m here to remind everyone. Someone over there has already informed the guards of the men in black. If you don’t run now, it will be too late.” Manfred spread his hands, pretending to be calm, and then He took two steps towards the other party, and at the same time secretly winked at the woman, hoping that she would understand that he was not the same as these gangsters.
However, the latter not only did not make any indication, but turned his head slightly, showing a confused expression.
Hell, doesn’t this guy understand his situation?
Why have you come to this point, and you can still be so… calm?
“What kind of guards in black, isn’t it just a patrol team?” The leader grinned sullenly, “Who will they help? You should still be a baby!”
“Hahaha, look He looks like he probably came from a rich family.”
“Isn’t he just as downcast as us?”
“Get out of the way, before the boss loses his temper—” There was a burst of
laughter, right here For a moment, Manfred made a move.
With heavy shoulders, he slammed into the chest of the leader who had let down his vigilance, and then turned his fists, knocking him to the ground.
It had to be said that these gangsters were much easier to deal with than Mai Jinli’s two well-trained attendants.
From the time he started to fall, the leader didn’t even groan.
The crowd suddenly went into an uproar.
“Damn, you court death!”
“Hurry up and save the boss!”
Manfred immediately felt several hits on his back and legs, but he couldn’t care less now, and stretched out his hand towards the woman, half covering his head, “Come with me!”
Unexpectedly The unexpected happened.
The woman did pass her hand over, but instead of putting it in his palm, she grabbed his wrist tightly, and then pulled him hard, pulling him into the encirclement.
“Hey, you…” Manfred was about to ask if the other party made a mistake, but he saw the electric light jumping on the woman’s body.
Wait… Lightning?
Before he regained consciousness, the small electric light turned into an electric arc in an instant, and the blue light suddenly flourished, pounced on the rushing gangsters like a long snake, and pierced through them one by one like a skewer.
In front of such an unbelievable scene, the perpetrator had almost no power to resist, and only had time to utter a short scream before falling stiffly to the ground.
“That’s all right.” The woman clapped her hands and said easily.
“Uh…could you be…” Manfred was dumbfounded.
“That’s right, I’m a witch.” The other party admitted her identity very frankly.
But… Aren’t all witches supposed to be extremely beautiful, have a proud figure, and are full of charm in every move?
He looked at the woman carefully for a moment, and the feelings he got were completely incompatible with these descriptions.
Not to mention the appearance, mediocrity is a compliment; the figure is also quite thin, if you only look at the back, it is no different from a little girl.
“Then… what are they going to do?” Manfred pointed to the gangster on the ground.
“I will contact the police department to deal with the aftermath—don’t worry, I only used about 10% of my strength, and I can make them faint for half an hour at most. But the mine and kiln area probably won’t be released so easily. Let them go, I think it will take at least ten days and a half months to come out?”
Manfred found that he could not follow the content of her words at all.
Judging from her tone, this conflict seems to be something planned?
“By the way, my name is Sharon, can you tell me your name?” The woman’s question interrupted his thoughts.
“Well, Manfred…”
“You are the first person I saw who took the initiative to stand up, why?”
“Why?” Manfred rubbed the kicked part, “stop the evil from happening Isn’t it a matter of course? It’s just that I didn’t think you didn’t need help at all.”
“Of course?” Sharon curled her lips, “If everyone thinks this way, those who made the noise earlier wouldn’t all run away without a trace now. Yes.”
“But there will always be someone who understands this.” In the history books, the nobles were transformed from such people, they brought order to the chaotic world, and opened the way among the thorns.
“That’s right. There is always someone who knows right and wrong.” Sharon laughed. “Are you an immigrant who just came to Neverwinter? Do you have any plans to join the police department in the future?”
“You mean…to become the man in black Right
?”
“That’s right, fighting crime, maintaining order, and protecting residents are the main responsibilities of the police, and I think this job may be suitable for you. In addition, they don’t necessarily wear black all the time, such as now.”
“Eh?” Manfred was taken aback.
“Okay, I have to go to the administrative office to report, the receptionist is still waiting for you.” Sharon waved her hand, turned and walked towards the inner city.
“You know now, why didn’t I let you go?”
After returning to the team, Matt smiled at him.
“This…what the hell is going on?” Manfred asked with a puzzled expression.
“An effective method to deter crime.” Matt explained as he walked, “The temporary housing area in the outskirts was not so chaotic, at least when I lived. But since the number of immigrants has doubled, the level of security has improved. It has dropped seriously, and among all crimes, violence against vulnerable women is the most prominent-of course, I am not saying that the fault lies with you, because there are also many refugees who moved from various parts of Graycastle. Due to the large number of people, It is very difficult for the police to take care of it, and it is very important to call the police once something happens, and the perpetrator is likely to have caused irreparable damage by the time someone arrives.”
“Isn’t this obvious? When the scum gathers together, no matter how good a place is, it will become a smog.” Someone muttered, “In my opinion, the King of Graycastle shouldn’t accept these people of unknown origin.”
Matt shook his head, “Your Majesty hopes that any Everyone can come in handy—especially in the battle of divine will. But this idea is not from His Majesty, but from the witches. For them, doing so can not only consume magic power, pass space time, but also Maintaining law and order is undoubtedly killing two birds with one stone.”
Playing… to pass free time?
Manfred couldn’t help but twitched the corner of his mouth.
“Facts have also proved that this tactic is very effective. Any seemingly weak refugee may launch a fatal counterattack, which is enough to dissuade those who are on the spur of the moment. In addition, the police department will never let a criminal go, and repeat offenders will repeat it again and again. Consider the cost. After the joint rectification of the two, the law and order here is much better than at the worst time.”
“I see…” Manfred thought.
It seems that the men in black in Neverwinter City are not the same as the patrols in the past. On the contrary, they resemble the image of knights in his mind.
If Sharon hadn’t lied to herself, this might be an ideal job.
After arriving at the temporary residence and allocating the room, Matt waved goodbye to them, “I will come over tomorrow and show you the history and characteristics of Neverwinter, which will be very helpful for your future life and integration into the local area. In addition, Feel free to ask any questions you have.”
Manfred originally wanted to inquire about what it takes to become a policeman, but when he left his mouth, the words turned into another sentence, “I saw some huge iron birds on the way here, I don’t know if you also— —”
“Ah, I’ve seen it. If you’ve been in Neverwinter for a long time, you’ll know that it’s not uncommon.” Before he finished speaking, Matt replied with a smile, “It’s true that the first time you meet It’s
a bit shocking, but it’s good to get used to it. If you have enough talent, you might even be able to fly it into the blue sky yourself.”
“What you said…is it true?” Manfred’s heart skipped a beat.
“Of course, there is still a recruitment order from His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess on the central square—it’s about the selection of a new round of sky knights.”
