Abnormal Security Bureau

Chapter 3: The beautiful witch.

Item code: A.O 399 (Forsaken)

Danger level: Fairly high.

Containment level: relatively difficult.

Description: A.O 399 is a collection of countless monstrous humanoid creatures. They are usually summoned by ritual dark magic through an egg.

When summoned, the subject will turn into countless individuals with extremely strong combat ability, capable of handling a special police unit.

Containment Status: A lot of things like this are in the hands of criminal gangs. Once found, the mobile police units of the Department of Anomalies will immediately deal with special ammunition.

- This is what killed comrade Khoa, your friend. - Thanh Lam spoke up. – Ten years ago, they also killed many mobile police officers of the Bureau.

- What is this…!? – The young man said, trying to control his emotions.

- If you can't keep calm, I can't let you out. – The young woman said.

- I can do it, comrade. – The male trainee said. – I am a student of the People's Police Academy.

The two stars then exited his hospital room and walked down the hallway. Along the way, he saw a red flag with a yellow star, a hammer and sickle, and a statue of Uncle Ho, like any other government agency. Not to mention many police soldiers in police uniforms and plainclothes. This was like a normal police agency but what they manage was not normal at all.

- Let's go to the weapon room. - Lam said.

Both men were later given personal weapons including a K54 gun.

- I thought it must be something very different. – Young trainee said with a little regret. He was thinking of high-tech guns that could fire lasers or something like that.

- Give me your belt and I’ll show you. – The beautiful woman said.

- Here it is. – Quoc said.

- Thank you!

Before he could pick it up, he saw Lam speaking in a mysterious language that no one understood. Then, she lightly touched the ammunition belt causing it to glow for a moment.

- What are you doing!? - Quoc asked.

- Cast spells that make this thing work against anomalous entities.

She said something that seemed like she came out of a sci-fi movie in a very calm manner. Anyway, normal bullets can't effectively resist supernatural things. The battle where he and the other policemen were ambushed by an A.O proved that. It was nothing more than a one-sided massacre.

- Time to go, isn't it? - Quoc asked.

- YES! - She said briefly.

The two then quickly armed themselves and tried to get out. Before leaving, she also took advantage of the canteen to get a piece of “Banh tet” admittedly, this place was wider than Quoc expected because it took him a while to reach the elevator, which was considered the main entrance to this place.

- When you were a child, did you know a boy named Bai Quoc...? - You inquired.

- You want to ask why I quit, right? - Lam spoke up.

- Why!? - Quoc asked and approached the girl at any time.

This is what relates to him. The friend I knew during life and death was a traitor to me, not everyone was calm before this incident.

I can't answer you right now. That's all. – She said.

- I got it. – He said.

Then, the elevator door officially opened. They moved along a corridor to go out of the city.

- If it's top-secret, don't tell. Quoc regained his composure and replied. – I am also a soldier of the People's Public Security... the trainee is about to become a policeman. I know what to prioritize.

- Don't worry, the ASB in particular and the Ministry of Public Security said they will find out who killed my comrades a few days ago. - Lam said. – Or even the person who caused the incident on the bus ten years ago.

"Ko, you can rest in peace. I will make the person who killed you pay fake money." - Quoc thought to himself. He and the girl next to him went out without knowing.

- So here it is! – He exclaimed.

The place above them is the Ho Chi Minh City police headquarters. Quoc wondered who would have thought that below the law enforcement agency was the base of a specialized organization dealing with supernatural things

- You just woke up,? Probably outmoded to get rid of something. - Lam said. - Don't refuse, Comrade Quoc. This is my good idea.

Just like that, the two officially went out, not by the front door but by the back door. According to Thanh Lam, it is to ensure confidentiality.

After that, the two entered a restaurant. There are quite a few people here enjoying the food. Except for the staff who were serving, the rest were looking at the boss scolding an employee.

- Is this where we're going to investigate? – He asked. – Are there monsters lurking here?

- This is a place to help comrades reduce stress. - Thanh Lam said. – You have post-traumatic, ic stress disorder,

- I don't have…! - The man spoke up. - I am a soldier of the people's police!

- Stay calm, comrade!. What I mean is that a policeman needs to keep himself calm to break the security. While he has been through so many things… - Thanh Lam said. She could almost see right through him.

- And here to calm me down, right? Listen! I am also a trainee who has been trained for several years. - Quoc said. - If it's just going to eat, then it's okay to eat at the canteen. No need to go all the way here.

- There was an informant who liked to eat this restaurant's food but had no money, so he asked me to buy them. He also helped me a lot, so I didn't have the heart to refuse. - She spoke up. - That guy also works for my little sister in the army.

- What exactly are you? - Quoc speaks on the main topic.

- Do you believe in ghosts and psychic powers? - Thanh Lam asked the young man.s

- Is this the right place? -  Quoc said.

- Are you sure you also studied criminal psychology? - She asked. – This is also one of the subjects in the police academy.

- Yes but no in-depth research. - You answered.

- So, you probably know very well that in this situation people usually won't believe what we say because it's simply too close to them. Sometimes it's better to keep a secret than a complete secret, comrade. - She spoke up. - This is one of the basic principles of plainclothes police.

- Do you have any superpowers? – Bai Quoc wondered.

- Call it magic. Do you want me to find a way to prove it? - Lam said.

Quoc thought for a moment and then looked at the boss who was yelling at the employee badly. The originally haughty lover also weirdly lowered her face.

- Now the boss lost his money. Can you see who took his money? - Quoc asked.

- No big deal! - She then began to speak in a voice that no one could understand. It was like the witch's spell he used to see in the movies.

Moments later, everything quickly reminded me of a video edited with software. Even though we've been through a lot, this was still beyond imagination. Meanwhile, the girl remained extremely calm. This was completely normal for her.

By this time, it was night outside, the bald boss was counting money after finishing a hard business day. Even after observing for more than ten minutes, he only counted the money and then counted the money again and did nothing else.

- Can you just skip it? - Quoc said. He didn't want to see other people's normal activities.

- Okay! - Thanh Lam said.

Then, the two saw a scene where two employees were kissing. The two seem to be quite passionate.

- Got kidding me!? - Lam said and fast-forwarded everything, however, the process of the two forms took longer than she expected. Also, not only did they kiss, but they also did a lot of inappropriate things.

Most importantly, they recognized that the female character in the "video" was the woman standing next to the boss. Meanwhile, the male lead was the employee being scolded. Not liking the intimate scene of the other two, Lam brought her and Quoc back to reality.

Then the “video” continues. Everything remained unchanged until the shop opened. No money involved. Simply, the money was still on the counter.

- So that's clear. The boss made up a story to slander the employee's father because the employee's father slept with his girlfriend. - Thanh Lam said. - But did you hear what I said!?

- Sounds very clear! - Quoc said. He didn't want to get too involved in this either. Anyway, if the other employee dared to do it, he had to accept it. The guy himself is just a student.

- How do you see me? - She asked.

The young woman wanted to hear something from the boy in front of her.

- Maybe I should join the Department of Anomalies. Quoc said.

Thanh Lam was a little disappointed because it wasn't what she wanted to hear, but she wasn't angry either.

- This is not an agency you want to enter. For someone like you who didn't go through the selection process, it needed to be approved by the comrade-mincomrade minister or at least the director-general. - Lam said with a serious attitude.

- Okay. By the way, I still believe in science more. I know you will find it funny but…

- Me too. - She said calmly.

- I thought you said you were a witch!? - Quoc asked in surprise and confusion.

- The physical world is shaped by countless physical laws, such as Newton's 2nd law. So is the magical world. One of the abilities of witches is to break the quantum link between the living and the dead. Moreover, magic, although it contradicts classical physics, has many properties that are quite similar to quantum physics. – Thanh Lam explained. - For that reason, the pioneers of magic are also the ones who do the most research in quantum science.

- Now you say you're an amateur quantum scientist!

- That's right! - She nodded to confirm Quoc's words.

Then, when the witch bought the package, she and Quoc went out of the shop.

- Okay. Are you a provider? - Quoc asked while walking along with the beautiful girl.

- I am a cadet of the police academy in the north of the magic force. In general, like comrades, I am just practicing. - Thanh Lam said. - But put that aside. We arrive.

Lam said as they were in front of a manhole cover.

- Don't tell me you have to get down here!? - Quoc asked. The girl said nothing but nodded.

This made him want to go crazy. In general, during his training, he was trained to work in places that ordinary people would never go, including under sewers. However, what Quoc did not understand is why this girl had such a beautiful face. It was better to have neat clothes or even specialized equipment

- I was joking…! He saw me dressed like this and went to the sewer. – The young woman said - Someone is going to come.

Didn’t wait for Quoc to think. The thing that came up from the bottom explained part of the reason.

- What the hell…!? – He exclaimed in surprise. If it weren't for Thanh Lam, he would have stopped before the guy had pulled out his gun.

A creature twice the size of an adult man appeared. It looked like a miniature mountain with lemon yellow eyes. Quoc wondered how this thing came up from the sewer.

- Let me see your master. I have something to ask him. – The woman said.

The creature remained expressionless and still seemed intent on attacking. Quoc saw this and stepped back, touching the gun but was stopped by Thanh Lam again.

- Calm down, kid. She is trustworthy, just like her sister. - A sound resounded from the bonnet next to it.

It was a small creature that looked like a troll or goblin. The eyes were yellow. The skin looked like a frog.

- Hello young witch and officer. Are you with a new boyfriend? -  The creature spoke up.

- He's not my boyfriend. But maybe you can help me, Donu. - Thanh Lam said.

- I don't help for free... - The monster said until he saw the piece of banh tet she took out.

Not to mention the food bought at the restaurant earlier. The creature immediately became extremely happy.

- What do you know about the case of a group of A.Os and Ngo Ky ambushed a police group a few days ago. - She asked.

- Exactly, I don't know, but it seems that there was a traitor in the police line. He is in ASB and has an underhand with supernatural criminal forces. Don't ask for the name because I don't know who he is either. – The beast spoke up. - Anyway, you should be careful. This force has defeated many supernatural security organizations around the world. Perhaps it would be safer to let General Department X participate.

- What are their names? - Thanh Lam asked.

- “Three Stricks”... - The creature said and brought up a suitcase. - That's right! This is the item Bao Linh from General Department X of the Ministry of Defense asked me to deliver to you. Find the right people to use it.

- If I don't give the food, won't you give it too!? - Lam asked.

- Then you just gave it! - The creature said.

Suddenly, Thanh Lam's phone vibrated, interrupting the conversation between the beautiful witch and a non-human creature emerging from the peacock's lid.

- Don't you turn off your phone? - Quoc said. He had been silent for a while and wanted to find something to say.

- Only emergency calls can be reached! - She spoke up.

Then, the girl started taking calls.

- Hello, Comrade Deputy Director. There is an unusual case… I know, comrade.

- Is there something more urgent ...? - The young man asked.

It was clear that the director of this "non-existent" bureau had no intention of inviting the girl out for tea.

- I know you need to find the killer but... – She said.

- I understand what needs to be prioritized, Comrade Lam. That's exactly what a practitioner like me, like you, is taught at the police school. - Quoc said. - Now let's go to the scene.

Then, the couple left the place.
