After hearing Vivian's words, Eros was stunned for a moment. Just when he was about to say it was okay, Peter on the other side waved his hand and said:
"It's okay! Conan's body is about the same as mine, and I have a raincoat over there, so Conan can just put it on when the time comes."
Hearing this, Eros had to swallow back the words that were about to be said, and smiled a little embarrassedly:
"I forgot to change my raincoat when I came out. Luckily Peter had a spare one."
"Otherwise, in this weather, if you just hold an umbrella, you'll probably get soaked by the rain."
Peter shook his head, denied Eros's words, and said seriously:
"No, no, no! The main reason is that holding an umbrella will affect your vision, and you might miss a cultist because of it."
After hearing what Peter said, Eros praised Peter's attentiveness with a somewhat admiring tone.
Vivian ignored the business flattery on the side. After reminding Eros, she turned her gaze to the only window in the office and watched calmly at the tiny water droplets falling on the glass outside the window.
Seeing Vivian's expression, Peter and David beside them couldn't help but slow down their voices.
Vivian just watched quietly until exactly nine o'clock in the evening, when she made a new move.
She stood up from the chair, grabbed the raincoat hanging beside her and put it on. She said in a calm voice without turning her head:
"I'm on night watch!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she opened the door and rushed into the pouring rain outside.
Seeing Vivian leave, Eros didn't stay in the office for long. After borrowing a raincoat from Peter, he walked into the rain.
When he came to the street, Eros felt a little sad when he saw the water on the ground that was already above his ankles. Fortunately, he changed into high waterproof leather boots.
However, if the rain continues like this, even with the drainage system of Hedaram, it is estimated that it will not be able to drain away the water in a short time.
If the water cannot be drained, it is likely to cause floods. This does not matter to Eros, but it may not be so easy for the poor people living in the slums.
Feeling the cold icy rain hitting him, Eros sighed softly.
I don’t know if those people from the Ocean Church will intervene in the weather.
With this in mind, Eros began to patrol Hedaram at night.
Tonight, like last night, he detected no sign of the cultists.
I did see quite a few ordinary people filling sandbags at their doorsteps in the middle of the night to slow down the time it took for water from the streets to flood into their houses.
By five o'clock in the morning, the water on the street had reached the calf level.
Now even the ordinary police officers on night duty at the West District Police Headquarters began to bring sandbags and place them in front of the police station to block the accumulated water from the streets.
But at this moment, the heavy rain from the sky is still falling tirelessly.
After returning to the Special Operations Department office in the morning, Eros sighed casually:
"It's raining so hard!"
Peter nodded in agreement and said, "Yes! The last time it rained this hard was last time."
"When Henry and Kevin come to take over, I will notify them and ask them to check the specific conditions of the Selvina River and the Vildore Reservoir."
"It looks like the rain will continue for a while. If the situation is not optimistic, we will have to ask the police department to notify the residents of Haidaram to prepare for flood prevention."
The Selvina River is a river that flows into the sea across the three districts of Haidaram, and the Virdo Reservoir is used to regulate its water level.
If it spreads, it may affect the entire Haidaram.
Eros, who had been in Haidaram for some time, certainly knew this.
So he frowned and said, "Doesn't Archbishop Mellon of the Ocean Church already have the power to control celestial phenomena?"
"Why don't you ask him to use his power to disperse the rain clouds in the sky, so that you don't have to worry about the next flood."
Hearing Eros's doubts, Peter smiled and said, "Mystery aside, this is the order that the nine major churches have jointly established for the world."
"We warlocks only protect ordinary people from mysterious threats."
"As for the rest, we won't take action if it's not necessary."
“Ordinary people also need to grow and suffer, if we can solve all the problems.”
"If we are late or absent one day in the future, they will have no means to save themselves."
A flash of realization flashed across Eros' eyes, and he nodded to Peter:
"I see!"
It’s not that he didn’t understand these things, it’s just that he was just thinking about convenience and ignored this point.
Now after hearing Peter's reminder, Eros finally understood everything.
Peter shook the rain off his raincoat, said nothing, and just smiled.
In his opinion, although Conan was extremely talented, he was still too young and had only been a member of the Night's Watch for a short time.
That's why when encountering a problem, they would think of using mysterious means to solve it.
If some things can be solved by ordinary means, then try to solve them by ordinary means.
After all, every time you use spiritual power, you are deepening your bond with the mystery and accumulating factors of madness in your body.
Although you can still maintain your sanity for now, if you use it too much, no one knows when the madness and pollution accumulated in your body will explode.
