Weird Wizarding World

   Chapter 52 Inspection Office

   The next day.

After    finished his duty, Colin went straight to the guard station in the west of the city.

   When Holt was leaving last night, he told him that he would need to go to Minister Patton himself to get a specific transfer order tomorrow morning.

   Tuk Tuk Tuk.

   "Please come in."

   He walked into Minister Patton's office.

  Unexpectedly, there was another person inside.

   "Lord Berkeley, Minister Patton." He greeted respectfully.

   "You came just in time, and we were just talking about you." Berkeley looked back at Colin and smiled lightly, "You have been transferred back to headquarters, Colin."

Next to   , Patton also took out a transfer order and handed it to Colin, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile:

   "Holt recommended you to me, saying that your strength is not bad... When you go to the headquarters, don't lose the face of our city west."

  Colin smiled and took the order, looking down.

  'No wonder Holt told himself last night that he would probably be transferred to headquarters... It turned out that he recommended it. ’

The date and address of the report are written on the    order.

  The date is the day after tomorrow, and the address… 28 Acorn Street?

   "Minister, is this address spelled wrong?" He asked involuntarily.

   No. 28 Acorn Street is on the west side of the city, even closer to his home than the city west guard here.

   "It's not wrong." Berkeley explained, "Last week at the suggestion of City Lord Price, Wizard Rapp ordered the guards to re-spawn a new side-by-side department - the inspection department."

   "The original headquarters of the guard office has now become the headquarters of the inspection office. The guard offices in the west and east of the city have been slightly reduced, and are specially responsible for dealing with beasts and strange beaches."

   "The new inspection office has also set up three places in the east and west, and the inspection office in the west of the city is what you want to go to.

   However, both the inspection offices in the east and west of the city are now managed by the inspection office headquarters in the city, so you are also transferred back to the headquarters in name. "

   "I see, I see, thank you." Colin nodded.

   He didn't expect so many things to happen quietly while he was on duty.

  …Did they even set up a new department?

   He was not surprised that Price was able to convince Wizard Rapp to change the structure of the guard.

   After all, the Guardians are essentially Rapp's help for Price.

   In fact, in Black Rock City, although it is nominally Berkeley's command guard.

   But in fact, the daily management orders are usually issued by Price, and Berkeley is mainly responsible for the patrols in the wizarding field.

   "Well, if you have nothing to do, just go home and rest, remember to report the day after tomorrow."

"OK."

  Colin left the guardhouse, got into the carriage, and headed home.

   He pondered while eating the breakfast that Renee brought.

  'The establishment of the inspection office is obviously to strengthen the power in the city... Maybe this has something to do with Catherine's pollution? ’

   He pondered in his heart, but came up with no result.

  There are still too few clues.

   But there must be something happening behind him that he doesn't know...

  'Still too weak...'

  Colin took the handkerchief Renee handed over and wiped his mouth.

   Even now compared to before, his strength is incomparable.

   But in this world, they can only follow the trend and let their superiors arrange.

   He has just gotten used to the life on duty in the west of the city with great difficulty. Seeing that there are fewer and fewer beasts attacked, and night duty is getting easier and easier, but now he has to be transferred to a new position...

  The only good thing is that we can still stay in the west of the city.

   At least that way, he doesn't have to think about changing houses.

  …

   Palm Street.

   Home basement.

  Colin took two palm-length narrow and long pointed darts and looked carefully.

  These cone-shaped darts are somewhat similar to the bullets of the previous life, and may be called cone-shaped darts.

   This is his newly customized ammo for Arrow Shooting, which is specially used to kill large creatures.

  After the actual combat, he carefully reviewed the shortcomings exposed by the original shuttle dart.

The    shuttle-shaped dart is like the armor-piercing bullet of the rifle in the previous life, and the penetrating power is very strong. But in many cases, it is precisely because of this powerful penetrating power that the kinetic energy does not fully act on the target, and the final damage is unsatisfactory.

   And two new custom-made large cone bullets, one of which is made of copper skin and hollow inside.

   After hitting the target, the tip of this cavity cone will be deformed, causing the center of gravity to shift, and the cone will be unstable and roll in the target body, fully releasing kinetic energy and causing maximum damage.

   And another solid cone bullet is used for breaking armor.

  According to the same principle, Colin also made a batch of the same knuckle-sized cavity cone rounds and a batch of solid cone rounds to enrich his ammunition.

   The original shuttle dart was also eliminated by him.

   In this way, when facing different targets, he can choose different cone bullets accordingly.

   28 Acorn Street

  ‘It should be here. ' Colin looked up at the gray building in front of him, then stepped inside.

   Two days passed quietly, and today is the day he came to the inspection office.

   Pushing the door open, you will be greeted by a simply decorated hall.

   A fat man is sitting on a chair in the front left.

   He was dozing off with a plate of greasy, crispy pork belly by his hand.

   "Hello? I'm new here to report." Colin asked the fat man as he took out the order.

  Flower opened his eyes slowly, glanced at Colin, took the paper order from him with greasy hands, and put it aside.

   "Well, I got it... As you can see, I'm the captain Flower after you..." He then took a piece of pork belly and put it in his mouth, chewing and closing his eyes again.

   "Okay, don't bother me standing here, go to the innermost room to find the deputy captain and let him tell you about other things."

  Colin's face was calm, he didn't care, nodded, and walked towards the innermost room according to Flower's instructions.

  An attitude like Flower's is the general attitude of the upper-level people in this world towards the lower-level people... People like Holt are only a few.

   tuk tuk —

   Colin knocked on the innermost door.

   "Please come in."

   A slightly shrill voice came from inside.

   He pushed open the door and entered, and he saw a young man with a mustache, slightly sunken cheeks, and a pale complexion.

   Wearing a silver badge on his chest, he should be an intermediate apprentice like him.

   "You're Colin, right?"

   Before he could introduce himself, the young man took the initiative and said with a smile.

   "My name is Barney, and I'm your vice-captain."

   "...Lieutenant Barney."

   When Barney heard this, the smile on his face became even wider.

   "Welcome to the inspection office. There is a shortage of manpower here. I heard that you are strong, and there is just one thing you need to do."

  …

   Two hours later,

  Barney takes Colin outside the last tavern.

   "This is the last place, Captain Flower likes the grilled fish here, do you remember?"

"…remember."

   "Do you also remember the restaurants and pubs that I took you to before?"

   Colin nodded silently.

   He didn't remember it deliberately, but after being strengthened by the golden four-leaf clover, his memory was greatly enhanced... Barney won't forget it as long as he says it once.

   "Very well, what you have to do is very simple, just buy different food at different times of the day and send it over." Barney nodded with satisfaction, and then emphasized, "Remember, you have to send it to me through the side door first."

   In fact, such chores don't need wizards like Colin to do.

   He just wanted to let Colin understand the identity of his vice-captain and what it means to be superior and inferior!

   "Barney, is this what the inspection department does every day?"

   He was really speechless and asked with a frown.

   "Lieutenant Barney!" Barney frowned, interrupting him.

   paused for a while, then pretended to be earnest and exhorted:

   "You are still young, you don't understand... There is no danger in the city. I have worked in the headquarters for several years, and I have not encountered ten incidents. There is no need to patrol according to regulations."

   "You must know that our captain Flower is the first person under the peak apprentice, as long as you please him, whatever..."

  Colin became more and more impatient, and took the initiative to block Barney's words, not knowing what to say...

   Thanks for the 99 stars of the king, drinking tea and reading three books, making me look over it, my modest strength, and the 100 starting point coins for the tight pants!
