Mechanical Alchemist Chapter 26: Knife the prophet
"Arbiter" Chuck, the most powerful boss in South City and a gangster godfather.
Exquisite brown suit, heavy woolen windbreaker, low-pressed dome hat, rich beard... Although he is not too tall, his arms are strong enough, and his facial features and portrait are as sharp as a knife. His eyes were as deep as a wolf, and his temperament was as steady as a mountain.
This president of the "Iron Cross" fulfilled all Suellen's expectations of the image of a gangster.
......
Seeing the president coming, all the members of the Cross Society greeted one after another: "President!"
“Thank you for your hard work.”
Chuck nodded to everyone and looked at the unconscious prisoner on the ground.
Chi Jiao on the side took the initiative to explain: "This guy wanted to commit suicide before when he couldn't escape, but I stopped him. He looked very familiar, he should be a mercenary from Beicheng."
There are three major gangs in the outer city of Jiulingdun, occupying the east, west and south districts respectively. Because Beicheng District is close to the inner city, it is still managed by the City Public Security Department, and no large gangs can reach there.
Beicheng District serves as a buffer zone between the slums and the inner city, so the various forces there are complicated, and there are also "mercenary unions", "alchemy unions", "hunting unions", "professional unions", etc. Various neutral organizations...
In addition to the three major gangs, most of the "professionals" in the outer city hang out in Beicheng, and there are also many masters.
The people who came to attack the Cross Society headquarters this time seemed to be the mercenary group from Beicheng.
Chuck didn't know what he was thinking when he heard this, and nodded: "Yeah."
He said calmly: "These guys used a black scythe to break the door of the vault. It should be the indestructible forbidden object [Hypnos] that appeared in the inner city auction house a few years ago. The Black Scythe of Night]."
Hearing this, the captains seemed to think of something, their brows furrowed slightly, but they also showed surprise.
Only the forbidden object can break open the vault door in a short time.
At this time, Chuck frowned and said seriously: "'Forbidden objects' cannot be put into the storage ring. The target is very big. People can leave, but the objects must not be allowed to leave Nancheng! Inform the brothers below immediately Blockade the city and make sure no one can escape."
All the captains responded: "Yes, President!"
.....
This support team on Green Street was originally not qualified to listen to the decisions of these gang leaders, just because they arrived too early and happened to be in front of the headquarters building.
After hearing the order from President Chuck, they immediately took action and prepared to return to Green Street to set up defenses.
The locomotive started and was about to turn around.
At this time, Senjou thought of something, threw the unconscious prisoner on one of the open-top motorcycles, and said: "Kai, take this guy to the interrogation office."
“Okay!”
Kayi nodded and called a few people to tie him up.
The gang's interrogation office is just three blocks away, so it's a convenient way to go.
Just after everyone left on Green Street, several captains also left one after another, each going to their own patrol blocks.
Left President Chuck standing alone, looking deeply at the foggy neighborhood in the distance, wondering what he was thinking.
After a while, a middle-aged man with a cigarette holder in his mouth came over and reported: "President, the investigation has been completed. We killed four of the seven people who entered the vault and captured one. But that 'thing' was also lost, and it should have been taken away by the guy with the scythe. As for the last one, it might be..."
Chuck waved his hand before he finished speaking: "I know."
No one saw a sigh flash in the eyes of this notorious gangster godfather when he heard this.
.....
The Green Street convoy was on its way back.
Different from the tense atmosphere when we arrived, now the car is full of joy.
Captain Kai also announced good news: "Brothers, just now the Smoker Boss said that each person participating in the mission will receive a bonus of 50,000 yuan. We from Green Street are the fastest this time and will receive an additional reward of 50,000 yuan!" ”
“Hahaha, the smoker boss is mighty! The captain is mighty!”
The convoy suddenly burst into howling laughter.
One hundred thousand liso, which is enough for five months of everyone’s salary. This is definitely a huge sum of money for an ordinary gang member.
Although six people were killed and more than ten were injured in the previous encounter on the bridge. But this doesn't seem to be a big deal to these gangsters who have long been accustomed to death and blood.
The lives of most people in the outer city are not worth 100,000 yuan, including them.
If you can survive, you must continue to enjoy yourself.
Slight injuries can be solved with a dose of healing potion. Even if there is a broken limb, the bonus of 100,000 yuan is enough for them to install a mechanical prosthetic leg, and then enjoy several times at the Fengyuechang Wine Pond and Meat Grove on Green Street. It’s been a month...
Su Lun listened to the cheers and shouts of the crowd, and a smile appeared on his face.
On the first day he joined the gang, he encountered so many things, which really surprised him.
Sure enough...
The high risks and casualties of gangs are not just exaggerated.
But the harvest is also equal.
However, Su Lun felt that such a life was not bad.
This gave him a long-lost pleasure.
In his previous life, he spent several years in a juvenile detention center for psychiatric treatment. He was not released until he could perfectly control his emotions.
The "disease" seems to be cured, but he rarely feels the stimulating feeling of adrenaline surge. No matter how scary the movie or the game is, it is rare that he can make a big splash in his heart. And as time goes by, the boredom becomes more and more serious, and the fun in life becomes less and less.
On the contrary, this cruel world of caves made Su Lun very appetizing.
......
As I was thinking about it, my thoughts were a little far away.
"A raid on the headquarters of the Cross Society was planned and surrounded by the president and cadres. The gang's top leaders are not bad at it..."
Su Lun sighed inwardly, thinking of the "big people" he had seen before.
President "Arbiter" Chuck, as well as cadres "Four-Armed Rakshasa" Thirteen, "Smoker" Sambu Kaczynski, "Night Angel" Goethe Amato...
Each one of them is a second-level professional or above. Not only are they extremely powerful, but they also look like flesh-and-blood characters.
It can be summed up by more than just the word "gangster".
But, suddenly.
I don’t know what came to mind, but Su Lun’s eyes suddenly fell on the prisoners in the raid, and his thoughts instinctively played a reasoning game.
Who will the enemy be?
Is it the "Crow Gang", an old rival, or the "Steam Party"?
But at present, it seems that those participating in this operation are almost all mercenaries from Beicheng. It is unlikely that the two major gangs will take action, or that they will not be directly involved.
The mercenaries with such wealth and wealth are probably...big figures in the inner city.
Also, why did they come to attack the headquarters warehouse?
Just simply robbing wealth is not worth it at all.
With this spare time, it is much easier to rob the rich than to rob the gangsters.
The target of this group of mercenaries should be a very important special item in the warehouse...
Limited clues were put together, and Su Lun quickly deduced some truths in his mind.
However, he has neither the interest nor the interest to delve deeper into it.
After all, he doesn't want to, nor is he able to interfere with the affairs of the gang's top brass.
“But having said that, these mercenaries know that the top brass of the Cross Society are very capable, so why would they choose to fight against stones?”
Su Lun thought of something interesting.
Judging from the calm expressions of the previous cadres, it probably didn’t take much effort to kill the group of mercenaries.
So, where does the enemy get the confidence?
"Oh, no, the person before said that the president and the others just came back...which means that the enemy caught the gang's top leaders when they were not in the city. However, the president and the cadres were actually originally Just lurking in the city, waiting for the turtle in the urn?"
Su Lun felt that things seemed to be getting more and more complicated.
No one wants to be beaten up for playing an empty city stratagem.
After all, having the gang headquarters breached was like being slapped in the face. For the "Iron Cross", the three major gangs, even if the losses can be recovered, it is not a glorious thing.
Hence, Su Lun came to the conclusion: "If the gang's top leaders are taking advantage of the scheme, it must be to achieve a certain purpose..."
For example:
Establish your authority?
Or maybe trap a mole?
For such a large-scale invasion, 80% of the members of the Cross Society will be able to respond...
Su Lun thought of this and said doubtfully: "Eh... that's not right."
Suddenly, he looked at the unconscious prisoner again, and an inexplicable thought suddenly appeared in his mind: "If there is really a mole in the gang, according to the normal script, no one will kill him at this time. The plot doesn't feel perfect..."
The interrogation office is only three blocks away. If we don’t kill the prisoner on the way, it will be difficult to kill him after he is sent in. By then, the identity of the mole will definitely not be hidden.
It probably means "whatever you ask for, you will get what you want".
The thought in Su Lun's mind had just occurred, and the next second, a "bang" of a sniper gun sounded like thunder.
Looking closer, the prisoner in the car in front had his head exploded.
“…”
Su Lun looked at the **** scene in front of him and his face twitched.
He immediately realized that he seemed to have guessed correctly.
