Chapter 490 Intern Investigator
In this world, there is a group of people who are spread all over the world, with diverse identities, ranging from gangsters, liars, journalists, hooligans to students, university professors, archaeologists, businessmen, wealthy, and even detectives, soldiers, policemen...
Their profession span includes almost any profession you can imagine in the world. These people are men and women, old and young, and are spread all over the world. They are not members of a certain organization, do not believe in the same religion, and do not have the same beliefs.
And these people have only one similarity - that is, because of some coincidence or intentional or unintentional contact, they discovered the indescribable existence hidden in this world, the other side of the universe, which is terrifying and trembling. Faced with the terrifying threat that was enough to make mortals mentally collapse, begging for destruction and the terrifying threats they faced, they mustered up the courage to face the indescribable threat and fear, and defeated the plots that tried to put humanity and the world into chaos and destruction again and again.
They are the greatest unsung hero in the world - the investigator.
This is the setting of this world.
The government departments in this world know a little about this, and in fact they are also secretly studying this indescribable threat. Of course, they do not recognize this existence to the outside world. After all, once such things really break out, they will only cause social panic.
Logically speaking, at this time, a specialized organization should be established, like in movies or comics, such as the man in black. However, in fact, this is not the case. In fact, the logic is very simple - if the government does not recognize their existence, then of course it is impossible to create an organization to study or attack these monsters, otherwise wouldn''t it be equivalent to acknowledging their existence?
Similarly, in this way, it is impossible for public officials to deal with these issues. It''s just like everyone knows that dancing masters are feudal superstitions, so it''s the same truth that you can''t let government employees dance the masters.
However, this threat does exist, so how should we deal with it?
At this time, the investigator appeared.
Basically, according to the setting of this world, as long as someone is lucky (or bad) encounters something similar and eventually succeeds in getting rid of it, they will most likely call the police. And if the police arrive at the scene and find that the confirmation is true, then they will invite these "survivors" to become investigators.
If you have to say it, from the government''s perspective, the so-called investigator is more like the role of an external employee/temporary worker in the police department.
There is actually no way to do this.
After all, look at what the investigators do.
Go to a small town to investigate a case about mysterious disappearance, and then finds that a house is suspicious, then picks the lock and gets in.
Then I found traces inside, and then I pledged the lock and found the files inside.
Then I found a secret room in the wall, so I smashed the wall directly.
The indescribable monster was alarmed, and in order to avoid accidental burning the house.
Good guy, smash, loot and burn a dragon, right?
This involves kidnapping of living people. When the police are dispatched to arrest people, they will get angry on the spot in court. Without a search order, you dare to slip through the door and pick the lock and even smash and rob my house. Is there anyone who handles the case like this? Is this evidence legal?
Of course this is illegal.
But what about the other way around?
You want to say that a thief steals other people''s things, gets into someone''s house, finds that he has drugs hidden inside, and then he is conscientious and takes drugs to the police station to report that someone has drugs and hides drugs. That''s not my policeman''s business, right?
After all, it was not stolen by the police!
Since someone has reported the case, wouldn’t the police have reason to search?
As for that thief, wouldn’t he be punished for his merits?
The investigator plays the role of a "thief" in this way.
This is also the reason why investigators must collect all clues in every mission. After all, this is part of legal evidence. As long as the evidence is sufficient, the investigator can open the door, pick a lock or kill someone, which is considered to be a crime.
But if the evidence is insufficient... well... I''m sorry, I can only treat you as a criminal and arrest you.
This is another reason why investigators will not become personnel of government functional departments. As long as you are an "outsider", whatever you do and how you do have nothing to do has to do with the government, nor is it instructed by the government, nor is it allowed by the government to do this. Everything is done by you yourself...
Because of this, investigators are often just a name. Because you have nothing to do with the government, of course you cannot get any special allowances, nor can you let the government pay you five insurances and one fund, nor do you have any staffing... Not only that, if you encounter something strange, the first idea of ??the police is probably to ask you to deal with it.
Well, it is most likely that it will be the operation of sending you into the tiger''s mouth.
Of course, investigators are not just temporary workers who take the blame. On the one hand, becoming an investigator is equivalent to giving you a green channel for PY transactions with the police. As long as the evidence is sufficient and physical evidence is sufficient, no matter whether you slip through the door and pick a lock or set a fire, you are likely to be released on bail and go home to sleep on the same day. On the other hand, after becoming an investigator, you will be sponsored by an organization called the "Foundation". After all, they are a non-governmental organization on the surface... Isn''t this nothing to do with the government?
In fact, just the day after Duanmuhuai returned home, a blank letter appeared in the email address, and there were only two pieces of paper in it.
One of them is a card with the name of Duanmuhuai and a big "D" logo written on it.
The other one has a website address.
Duanmu Huai silently opened the computer, entered the URL, and then entered the foundation''s website.
Well, from the surface, this seems to be just a simple public welfare foundation website, and most of the contents in it are about public welfare aid. Only when you enter your name and number to log in will the entire foundation show its truest side in front of you.
but………
“It’s useless…”
Looking at the list in front of him, Duanmu Huai couldn''t help but complain. This interface is the "benefit" of the foundation for internal personnel. Simply put, it is to redeem the corresponding items on this website based on the evidence and points obtained by the investigator after each settlement.
Of course, there are all kinds of things on it, including houses, transportation, weapons, vehicles, etc. However, Duanmuhuai is currently a D-level personnel, so his redemption list is just some ordinary things.
As for the real stability anchor, Kant counter, etc., he doesn''t need to think about this level.
After all, he is a D-class person (spreading his hands).
For Duanmuhuai, the most important thing at the moment is naturally a weapon.
For ordinary investigators, the basic standard weapon is a dagger, a revolver, or a knife. After all, these things are easy to carry and are also very convenient to use. But this is not the case for Duanmu Huai. The guns are basically useless to him, and their shooting skills are too poor. Moreover, with Duanmu Huai''s palm, the average gun in his hand is like a child''s toy gun.
Weapons are available, but the problem is... what weapons Duanmuhuai uses? Are they all very silly?
Great Sword? Hammer? Can you carry this thing on the street? This is not a fantasy world...
Fortunately, Duanmuhuai finally found a weapon.
That''s the cane.
In fact, there are similar weapons in the game, called sword sticks. To put it bluntly, it is a sword made into the shape of a cane. On weekdays, it is just an ordinary gentleman''s cane, but as long as I hold the handle and I pull it up, I can pull out the sharp blade hidden inside.
This thing is very popular in the game. Many players like to wear suits and ties, and then use a cane sword to show off.
After all, this thing looks like it can be pretended and can be beaten, right?
But if Duanmu Huai wants to do it, it is naturally impossible to use this ordinary cane sword. This thing is similar to a toothpick in his hand, and it is a joke to take it out.
But...he can customize one by himself!
There is no need to put any sword blades inside, nor does it require any mechanism. Isn’t this problem solved?
With Duanmuhuai''s height, a cane is basically more than 2 meters long, and it can''t even get off if it doesn''t cost a few hundred kilograms. The head of the cane is carved into the shape of an eagle beak. It is not only beautiful, but also can pry boxes and fight people. If it hits 100 kilograms, he wants to see who can block this stick?
Big people need to drive a big car and use a big stick to sniper. What''s wrong with this? !
Oh, by the way, there is a car...
After returning home, Duanmuhuai asked the maid to send the heavy truck to be modified. The MMP thing is simply a container for transporting lions and tigers. How can people be seated? At least you have to make a modification and become able to live in a position, right? Even if you are a little larger, you can''t just throw an empty container for yourself. Are you not playing with me?
For the modification company, this job also surprised them, especially after meeting Duanmuhuai, they suddenly felt that this might be the hardest job they had since opened.
However, for the sake of money, they still bit the bullet and agreed to Duanmuhuai''s request and began to modify the heavy truck and container.
Of course, this all takes time, and Duanmu Huai doesn’t plan to be idle during this period.
The so-called come all come, if you don’t look for him, he can find trouble!
So Duanmu Huai quickly turned his attention to a tour place where players went to watch after they came to this world.
That is the well-known and popular treasure land that players are rushing to in the same area as Arkham City.
Innsmouth.
