Chapter 62 The Werewolf Incident Takes Flight
At 9:50 a.m., Raphael once again arrived near the place where he had fought the "conspirator" Petrov.
He stared at the restaurant entrance, waiting silently.
He had arranged to meet the young "judge" at the restaurant entrance.
A few minutes later, Raphael saw the chubby-cheeked girl, Hugh, walk quickly out of an alley and wave at him.
Raphael hesitated for a moment, glancing at the occasional carriage passing by on the road and the passersby coming and going.
The battle took place at night, when there were very few people on the road. Now it's daytime, and with people coming and going, it's definitely not a place to divide the spoils.
Raphael followed the girl into the alley with a wary expression, ready to leave immediately if he sensed anything amiss.
Seeing that the place was relatively secluded, Hugh turned around and took out a brown paper bag: "A total of 2500 pounds were sold, and here is 1600 pounds. I will not participate in the division of the wallets."
Raphael breathed a sigh of relief, took the paper bag and glanced at it briefly. He didn't care much about the extra 100 pounds the other party had taken, since the extraordinary characteristics were sold through the other party's channels.
Raphael thanked him and turned to leave.
Hugh stopped him, saying, "Wait a minute, I have something to discuss with you."
Raphael paused slightly, then said, "Please speak."
Hugh smiled and said, half-jokingly, "You said you were with the police, but I couldn't find any information about you."
Raphael argued with the other party, saying, "I'm just an ordinary informant; it's normal that they can't find me."
He was somewhat surprised: this girl actually managed to access police records!
Hugh crossed his arms: "I saw the newspaper reports about the 'espionage case.' There might be some inside story or some deal involved, but I'm not interested in it."
"I just want you to work for me and provide me with the intelligence I need."
Raphael was momentarily stunned to realize that he was being recruited by a teenage girl.
Moreover, judging from their behavior, they seem quite adept at this kind of recruitment.
Hugh concluded, "I work for the official Extraordinary. You should know that as long as you work for me, you will receive certain guarantees."
Raphael couldn't help but ask, "Even the official extraordinary ones hire child laborers?"
Although the girl looks to be in her teens, she is already a Sequence 6, meaning she has been working for the official Extraordinary for at least a few years.
She was probably less than ten years old when she first started working.
Upon hearing Raphael's words, Hugh was both amused and exasperated: "You've got something wrong. I'm already twenty-five years old."
Raphael looked Hugh over again, his gaze finally settling on the man's flat chest.
Hugh glared at Raphael, trying to puff out his chest: "You don't believe me?"
"I believe you." Raphael suddenly smiled. "Of course I'd like to have an extra part-time job, but I don't want it to interfere with my freedom."
"You can rest assured about that," Hugh said. "I will cooperate with you on a mission-by-mission basis, and you have the right not to accept these missions."
"it is good."
Hugh immediately said, "Then my first task for you is to investigate the 'Three Brothers' in the Bridge District. We suspect that they are supported by an extraordinary organization. Focus your investigation in this direction."
"Yes, we meet here every Wednesday at 10 a.m. If there's an emergency, we send a telegram to the owner of 'Blue Parrot Bar', specifying that it's a message for 'Dagger'."
After discussing some details with Raphael, the two left in different directions.
After confirming that he was not being followed, Hugh took a public carriage to the Joewood district, then walked into a quiet neighborhood, where he met the man wearing a gold mask in an alley.
The man was a member of MI9 and had once been one of Hugh's father's subordinates, so he took good care of Hugh.
After Hugh recounted some of the intelligence she had gathered, the man in the gold mask paid the tip and said, "I have a new mission for you. It's not urgent, and the reward isn't very high, but it's safe for you."
He paused slightly before continuing, "We're looking for a werewolf. He's appeared twice already, once on Hein Street in the East District and once in the West District. Neither appearance resulted in any casualties."
As the man described it, Hugh immediately thought of Raphael, whom he had just met.
The man in the gold mask concluded, "—The 'Substitute Punishers' suspect that the other party will reappear, so to avoid causing public panic, they have upgraded this case to a public case."
Even if we can't find that werewolf,
If you can figure out this werewolf's intentions, you'll get the full reward for this mission.
The term "public case" means that all official Extraordinary organizations can participate in the investigation, and the relevant personnel in charge of the case will communicate regularly to speed up the process of solving the case.
Hugh nodded: "Okay."
She wondered if she should talk to Raphael, but then thought that might scare him away.
Hugh ultimately decided to discuss it with Audrey at the Tarot meeting.

The West End, Perrick's villa.
The wealthy Perrick family has moved out of the villa, leaving only a few servants behind.
One of the servants, hearing a noise coming from the restaurant, asked, "Which police officer is in there?"
Because the restaurant was the scene of the werewolf incident, it has been kept in the same setting as the crime, and police have been frequently coming to collect evidence and investigate in the past two days.
There was no response from inside the restaurant, so the servant opened the door to check, only to find that no one was there.
"That's strange." The servant looked around and said, "I clearly heard someone there just now."
Just as he was about to leave, a figure suddenly descended from the roof and asked, "Are you looking for me?"
The servant was startled, but after seeing the other person's face clearly, his fright turned into terror. The other person had two curved goat horns on his head and an evil smile on his face, making him very different from ordinary people.
Just as the servant was about to cry out, a cloud of blue steam rushed toward him. The servant had barely opened his mouth when he collapsed to the ground, foaming at the mouth and turning black in the face. He had been poisoned to death just like that.
Hanging on the roof is a demon, and it is the demon Charlemagne who once fought Raphael in the forest outside Backlund.
Upon returning to Backlund, Charlie was indeed beaten by the "Apostle of Desire" and given two weeks to find the werewolf, or he would be imprisoned in the dungeon.
Yesterday, Charlie happened to hear that a werewolf had appeared here, and followed the clues to get here.
He was just transforming into a "demon" and using a ritual to search for the werewolf's whereabouts when his servant overheard him.
After poisoning the servant, Charlie closed the door with a cold expression and continued the ritual.
As night fell, Raphael met Mr. C again. Today, Mr. C was going to introduce Raphael to several important members of the Aurora Society in Backlund.
