Night Hacker Chapter 69: Fist stone
It has been three days since the boxing area was blocked, and Elizabeth still got nothing.
That night, she took people to the Kuzhan Street first, because the landmark "Fist Stone Square" in the boxing area is there.
It was a huge natural boulder shaped like a fist, 31 meters high and 16 meters in circumference. The streets and buildings are lined low.
She was thinking about "The Sword in the Stone", so of course she came to see Fist Stone first, but it was still just a big rock.
It was the morning of the fourth day of the treasure hunt, and it had been raining for several days in a row throughout the city. Today the rain stopped, but the sky was still gray.
Elizabeth once again came to Fist Stone Square, standing in front of this majestic Fist Stone.
Berserker Street is once again in a state of complete blockade, and the dilapidated buildings and shops are all quiet, without the usual hustle and bustle. Some Seth security personnel deployed and patrolled the surrounding area, and they were more careful than in the Xuanyuan area. This place is full of assassins.
"Miss Elizabeth, it is already the fourth day."
The old nanny has been by her side for the past few days, and her nun's uniform is out of place everywhere, "The boxing area can't always be sealed off, it has caused a lot of economic losses in the past few days, and the time given to you at home is five days. Both blockade and treasure hunt."
The old nanny paused and said again: "And you will need to be responsible for this matter."
"I know." Elizabeth muttered, without saying anything, watching Fist Stone gradually lost his mind.
Master, master, where is the treasure...
No, you can no longer rely on luck aimlessly like this.
The answer should be in the master's guidance, she needs to find out by herself.
Elizabeth is familiar with the cultural history of all the twenty-ninth districts of Liuguang City, but this understanding is limited to books.
The boxing area was originally named because of this boxing stone.
At the beginning, the Boxing District was not what it is now, it was just a new residential area in Liuguang City, gathering those new immigrants and stowaways going east. But soon, as the master said, the name has the power of psychological suggestion.
The fist stone and the fist area all gave a hint.
The fist stone shapes the temperament of this place, and the name of the fist area attracts those who are brave and ruthless.
Up to now, the boxing area already has its own cultural style and regional economy.
If Xuanyuan District is a place of carnival, Boxing District is a place of violence.
There are weapon shops everywhere, selling all kinds of weapons, and some underground illegal shops also sell firearms.
In the past few days, Elizabeth spent half of her time shopping in the streets and wastelands, and the other half in weapon shops... She even visited some underground illegal shops. Apart from making the shopkeepers nervous, she found nothing special.
These stores could have been arrested and shut down by the Metropolitan Police Department, but the Metropolitan Police Department said that this would destroy the "ecological balance".
The more she walked around, the more she understood what the situation was.
If it is true that everything is done according to the law, the entire boxing area should be swept away, and nine out of ten people will be arrested.
In her heart, she hopes to have a big cleaning, not just for the boxing area, but for the whole city, not just for the streets, but for the whole society.
But now, she can't ask for anything, she just looks around and has more different insights.
The Xuanyuan District brought that kind of sentiment, and the Boxing District brought this kind of sentiment. These are things that cannot be brought in places such as the Acropolis Mountain Area, the Garden Area, and the Central Area. She thought it was necessary for her to walk all the streets in all districts of the city, maybe this insight is a treasure?
"Elizabeth."
Suddenly, another familiar female voice pulled Elizabeth back from her thoughts.
She looked back and saw that it was Sophia. There were some more Gaisborn security personnel in the square, but they didn't follow.
Unlike her coat, jeans, and sneakers, Sophia is wearing a black tunic dress, high-heeled shoes studded with jewels, a brown leather handbag, and tulle gloves on her hands, like a big girl who just came out of a party. Miss.
This is not the style of the boxing area, and obviously does not intend to respect the culture of the boxing area "you must go to the fist stone with bare hands".
Elizabeth knew that when she was in school, Sophia was also very familiar with the humanities in various districts, this was intentional...
"How's it going, did you find anything?" Sophia walked over with a smile, "I heard it's the last two days."
"Not yet... What about you?" Elizabeth has Seth's intelligence support, and she knows that Sophia is also looking for these days.
It's just that they all seem to have a tacit understanding, they don't look for the place the other is looking for, they just send people to follow.
Because there is really some treasure, Seth and Gaisborn cannot fight in the street like boxers, unless the value of the treasure far exceeds the damage caused by the battle.
She knows that there are many guys from the Heir Club, as well as people from the Mystery Bureau, who have been here in the past few days.
"I didn't gain anything either. Where did you get this revelation?" Sophia asked jokingly in the tone of an old girlfriend, "Could it be that everyone is fooled by you? Let boxers see our bank Is it a joke?"
Some things are said in jest.
Sophia actually didn't hide her disappointment and sullenness. Although the boxing area is huge and there are still many places she hasn't found, she no longer thinks there will be anything.
The purpose of Elizabeth's "return" seems to be to toss them from the inside.
"You played a bit too big this time." Sophia said again, "Aren't you afraid of being demoted? You know I was demoted by three levels just now, and now I'm only down to level six. It's okay, don't worry about me, I have found a new brain slave."
"Sophia..." Elizabeth frowned, listening to the other party say a cruel thing in a casual tone, she was really unbearable and a little sad.
Sophia, how did you become like this?
Sophia was not like this when she was a child or in middle school, nor was their relationship...
"Oh, by the way, I have another invitation for you."
Sophia took out an exquisite invitation letter from her handbag, handed it to Elizabeth, and said with a smile:
"Everyone in the club is thinking about coming, so let's do something. Everyone pooled up some change, and the combined total is 30 million, and we will hold a superman ring championship. It has been organized for a few days, and we will play tomorrow night , the specific time and place are on the invitation letter."
Elizabeth didn't really want to accept the invitation, didn't really want to go.
There are various taverns and boxing gyms in the boxing area, all of which are arenas for underground fighting.
Countless **** boxing matches, unlimited fighting, and extraordinary fighting are staged here every day, attracting all kinds of gamblers and audiences, and developing middlemen, boxer managers, champion boxers...
The gaming companies under various chaebols ~IndoMTL.com~ simply started related legal gambling.
She also heard that there is still a kind of "hunting game" for rich people to play here. Some people find some fighters to hunt down "wild dog" stowaways, and some go down to hunt them themselves.
This is the economic and ecological balance of the boxing area.
This kind of economy has bred all kinds of gangs, big and small. Under the God of War Gang, the gangs have cultivated all kinds of desperadoes, and they have also shaped the local children here from a young age, making the boxing area completely a place of all kinds. The local forces are recruiting and buying horses, making a lot of noise.
"Elizabeth, you have to think about it." Sophia reminded again, "If you really want to return, return to the bank, return to the heir club, instead of being further marginalized, you should go."
Elizabeth was silent, she really didn't want to make false claims with those blood-eaters...
However, she suddenly thought of Dagny, could it be that Dagny is willing to fake love with those revelers?
Dagny has Dagny's way, and she has hers.
For now, what the Heir Club thought of her was a big influence on Seth's opinion of her.
"I will go then." Elizabeth finally spoke.
"Okay." Sophia smiled, "You can just come, then you hurry up and pick someone. The rule of entry is to bring your own boxer. Everyone made a small bet to fight for the championship."
Elizabeth couldn't help but get angry immediately, "I don't want to play, just watch."
"Oh." Sophia shook her head, turned and walked away, "I didn't make the rules. The host is Yosuke Hara Fuji. He likes to joke recently. Maybe this is also a joke. You can ask him."
Yosuke Harafuji? Elizabeth is silent, so you don't need to ask to know, either don't go, or take the boxer with you.
