Chapter 66: The Hidden Thing
"The location of the key has been confirmed, but since the guy has returned, then I can't expose it. So, this mission, you guys go and get me the key back and open the secret room. β
Vicanlo lay on the couch with his feet crossed on the table, commanding the others with his toes in a swagger. His previous plan was undoubtedly successful, he managed to get the word out of Ruijin's mouth and take Sidir with him, although he was arrested a lot, but this small loss will not have much impact on Vicanlo's entire plan.
Following Vicanlo's instructions, Isobello led people to the neighborhood on West Chenghuan Road, and found a special purple key in a certain house. Then Isobello took the group to No. 146 Yongning Road.
Their actions were safe all the way, and no police officer noticed them, after all, Isobello's identity was not clear, and the police did not know that he was also a member of the Dark Gold Gang, so even if they passed by the patrol, the patrol would not pay attention to them, after all, they were no different from ordinary people, and the word 'bad guy' was not written on their faces.
"Big brother, can that thing really turn the tide of the battle?" the younger brother asked Isobello suspiciously, "If there really is such a thing, why didn't Boss Ruijin use it earlier?"
They had already arrived at the door of Room 102 on the first floor of No. 146 Yongning Road, and before opening the door, Isobello thought about it, and still didn't rush to open the door first, and answered the question first: "The things that are in here, and if you take them out, you will commit a felony." Only a madman would dare to take these things out. β
With the doubts of the younger brothers, Isobello slowly took out the key and slowly opened the door of room 102, some of the younger brothers swallowed their saliva nervously, they naturally didn't know what was hidden in this room, even Isobello was half-understood, he just heard several bosses of the Jin Gang say that Ruijin hid some extremely dangerous goods, and it also involved a slight treason.
When they opened the door completely, they saw the goods, but they were not shocked, because there were only five boxes in the house, and although these boxes were marked with gunpowder, the boxes were not large, so it could be concluded that these things were not weapons of mass destruction. The younger brothers slowly pried open the lid of the box, and found that the contents were also very ordinary, just some iron balls, and the weight was lighter than ordinary iron balls.
"Hurry up, close the box and take it back to headquarters. Isobello glanced at the goods, but he didn't know what the danger of the iron balls was, but since Vicanlo had to go to such great lengths to obtain them, it meant that there must be some special purpose for these iron balls.
The younger brothers quickly moved the boxes out of Room 102 one by one, and began to walk towards the headquarters. The headquarters is set up in a bar, and naturally no one will suspect that this is the lair of the Dark Gold Gang, and when these chests are moved in, others will only think that the chests are full of alcohol.
"Lord Vicanlo, what the hell are these things?" Isobello was puzzled, so he went straight to disturb Vicanlo, "Isn't this just an ordinary iron ball?"
"If this thing can really be seen by your group, then Ruijin will live in vain in this life. Vicanlo said disdainfully, "This small ball, inside is chaotic arcane energy, once it is subjected to a serious impact or shaking, the internal unstable arcane energy will be turbulent, and it will explode in a short time, and the explosion range is full of 100 meters, and the explosion power will not be weakened by spreading, and no one will be spared within 100 meters." β
"It's... Is this a bomb?" Isobello was frightened, and his voice trembled, "So, what about this bomb?"
"Arcane bombs, naturally, are explosions of chaotic mana, people who don't know spells, people who don't have magic resistance, at least severely disabled, but there is a high probability of dying directly from the explosion. Rafithorne walked in and answered Isobello's question, "But, Vicanlo, when do you plan to carry out the order of the Lord?" the High Council sent another letter, and it has been half a month, and the High Council wants to hear some useful news. β
"Urge, what urge. Vicanlo was a little impatient, "If I had the same resources as the waste (referring to Ruijin), I would have acted a long time ago." I have less than a tenth of that waste on hand right now. β
"But you, there's already a plan, isn't it?" said Rafithorne with a smile, and Vicanlo didn't answer him directly, just showed an evil smile, which meant that Vicanlo had already planned. "Now, it's time for the people of the city to know who their true leaders are. β
At 8:30 a.m. on March 19, the 'Tuisling' news radio station broke into a group of thugs, who broke directly into the building, knocked the security guards unconscious, and took all the staff members of the news station hostage, and the leader of this operation was not either Isobello or Vicanlo, but a small man named 'Sterling'.
"Is the radio connected?" Sterling asked one of his men, who nodded his head to indicate that everything was ready, and then Sterling picked up the radio microphone, tested the radio and volume, and then pressed the button to start transmitting the telecommunications, and the whole city began to hear Sterling's words whenever the radio of the channel was on demand
"The citizens of Rosafern have told me that we are members of the Holy Tide and that our target is the self-proclaimed traitor of the Corrupt Eradicator, Carmon Zagolo, a traitor to the notorious Zagoro family. We know that you have been shielding him, which is why he is hiding under the eyes and ears of the world, and it is you who have forced us to do extreme measures! In the next 24 hours, if you do not hand over Carmon, we will detonate a bomb every other day, which is the punishment for the shielders!!"
The radio news, although not heard by many people, quickly spread through the streets, because the news was so shocking, just a few days after the news of Carmon's return, and it involved the threat of explosions.
"Do you have any clue over there?" "I haven't heard of any 'Holy Tide' organizations outside of my country, I'm afraid... It's the group, Sheriff Tapuvi. Kolloven shook his head and answered Tapwi's question, but Tapvi didn't ask Celeste, as Tapvi was still jealous of the subtle connection between Carmon and him.
"Anyway, Vicanlo's people have already moved, and we must keep a close eye on all the streets! And, since the bomb is reported, then all the people with boxes and handbags must be investigated! The hospital and bank incidents have caused us so much damage, and we must not let the same thing happen again!"
Tapuvi's order was straightforward, and all the officers quickly dispersed and went to notify the district police stations to mobilize the maximum police force and investigate all suspicious people. Inside the police station, Tapuvi summoned the members of his original Crime Squad and the team leader, and they tried to find a way to capture Carmon, not to compromise with the threat, but to do justice.
Celeste knew that there was no longer anything to do with him, so he chose to leave and find someone he could see, Nishizawa.
"The old gentleman thinks the same as me. Nishizawa and Celeste came to a quiet place to discuss the news that shook the city, Celeste first told Nishizawa his thoughts, and Nishizawa also agreed to this speculation, "This holy tide organization must be composed of members of the Dark Gold Gang, just like the previous 'Righteous Ones' and 'Shweh Bang Army', they just show up with a nice name, but in fact, it is to cover up the crime they are about to commit." β
"But one of the things that concerns me is about explosives. "I have confirmed with Tapuvi in the previous bombings, except for the three bombs that exploded at the beginning, all the bombs found after that were only smoking, and did not explode. In other words, they only had three bombs from beginning to end, and the rest were all fraudulent bombs, but why did they have explosives again after half a month?"
"Definitely. Although Vicanlo is an evil criminal genius, it is obviously impossible for him to get so much explosives. Nishizawa was puzzled, "Even if he can extract substances from other substances to refine gunpowder, then he will have to buy a lot of resources." Since the bank was robbed, the city government has had strict control over the circulation of goods in the city and the investigation of entering the city, and it is impossible for them to purchase such a large amount of goods without being detected. β
"Orβ" Celeste suddenly had a terrible thought in his mind, "this shipment has been stored somewhere in the city before, and they only found it not long ago. "That's why they attacked the team transporting prisoners, not to rescue the prisoners, but to..."
Both Celeste and Nishizawa thought of this, and while the speculation was scary, it had some basis.
First of all, firstly, Ruijin has been in the city longer than Vicanlo, and before Ruijin did not take action against the heir of Zagolo, the Ripelan Group had the most resources in the city and a huge financial chain, and as a legitimate operating conglomerate, no one would have guessed that they would secretly make explosives. In order to maintain the reputation of the Ripland Group, Ruijin did not use explosives from beginning to end, but only let his subordinates use melee weapons to attack and sabotage.
Second, after the convoy was kidnapped by Vicanlo, they did not flee for a long time, but waited for Carmon to come, and they hesitated for a moment before choosing to flee, but only took Heathir with them, leaving Ruijin behind. From a certain point of view, a highly criminal group will only leave people who are still useful to themselves, although Hitir is Ruijin's subordinate, he is also the former leader of the Dark Gold Gang, and he still has a certain amount of influence. As the former chairman, Ruijin was hastily left behind, definitely because his only remaining use value is gone.
From this, Nishizawa and Celeste came to a terrible conclusion. This batch of explosives, which was in Ruijin's hands at the beginning, was hidden in an inconspicuous place somewhere in the city, and the hijacking case was to get the whereabouts from Ruijin's mouth, and after Ruijin lost its last use value, it would be abandoned!
