Chapter 123: The World Is So Small
Welcome to the Underworld. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
It's a network, a huge network of different spaces that have been divided.
There is a lot of evidence that the control of this network is the state, and they use this place as a place of exile for all darkness and sin, making the city look as clean and new on the surface, but everyone pretends not to know.
Here, every pedestrian passing by may have a criminal record, they rob, kill, ***** arson, endanger the peace, drug trafficking, contraband trading, bribery, illegal fundraising, all the events you can think of can happen here. In a sense, it's really similar to Gotham Town, except that here, there are no vigilantes, and the streets are full of supercriminals.
However, city dwellers can still survive in the [Table World], as long as they don't break the law, they can do anything, and even because of the existence of the [Underground World], the crime rate in the [Table World] is incredibly small, and at most it is just a small theft.
Although the crime rate is unbelievably high, as long as you stay in the [public area] honestly, no one will do anything to you.
Like I said, in a sense, this place is safer than the entrance to the police station.
There are only three things you have to remember: First, don't cause trouble. Second, don't cause trouble. Third, don't cause trouble.
Otherwise, you will be hanging here like this fool, it is a dried corpse hanging on an iron rod, judging from the rich clothes and decorations of his birth and the family emblem hanging around his neck, his position during his lifetime is very prominent, and there is a stone tablet here with the reason for this fool's hanging here: "He tried to rob the people in the street here during his lifetime, so we killed him and made him a mummy and hung it here, and it has been two hundred years now. 】
[P.S. This fool is a guy with a prominent status, the son of the fifth generation of the city lord, in order to kill him we spent a lot of manpower and material resources, and had to organize a murder carried out by the top experts, but fortunately we succeeded in the end, remember that no one is special here. 】
"Let's go, wife. "Hmm... Cecilia was visibly frightened when she saw the dried corpse hanging around the corner, and then she relented.
She had dissected many animals, and as a wizard, they had all seen human dissection in their basic class, but the death of this dried corpse was so ugly and terrifying that it scared her.
Now they have changed into the black trench coat again, wearing sunglasses, and they look similar to agents, but many of them are dressed in this attire, and some are wearing scarves and masks, covering them tightly, and there are rune engravings, so that others can't see their appearance.
However, there are also people who have nothing to hide, and there are very few such people, so they are also very eye-catching.
When he saw the two men, Albert suddenly felt that the world was too small.
First of all, I would like to mention here that every family has their own family emblem, as long as it has been passed down for more than one generation.
The family emblem is usually the initials of the founder of the family (the writing of this world is also hieroglyphics, as I said, the abbreviation referred to here is similar to the initials of pinyin), and then add decorative patterns, patterns, ancient language characters and the like with family characteristics, no matter where you go, look at the family emblem on your chest, and the same as yourself, that is your own person.
And the family emblem worn by those two people reminded him of an old friend.
Tom Red George Bernard Shaw.
The family crest worn by those two people is the Tom family, exactly the same, and it will never be wrong, so at that moment, he felt that this world was so small that it was so coincidental that they met, and it was their family's internal blood relatives, there would be no mistake, George Bernard Shaw specifically talked about what the different patterns mean.
The two men were chatting.
unscrupulously talks about things that don't need to be afraid of the people around you.
"That greedy pig did such a thing as if he were so great!" "Keep your voice quiet, and it will be troublesome if his people hear you." "What's there to be afraid of, he's so far away, no matter what, he can't manage here. ”
"Well, you're right, he can't do it here. "This time their decision is really stupid, they actually forgot the supreme ancestral training of the family!"
"They actually forgot the admonition [never turn your face until the last moment]!"
"Unless it is absolutely necessary, you shouldn't tear your face, even if the enemy is about to be calculated to death, you should stab the knife into it with a smile, even if the enemy has been imprisoned, you should pretend to go in to visit him, this is the words left by the ancestors, they actually forgot, completely carried away by the immediate interests!"
"Of course I know what you're saying, but control your emotions and you have to understand that they are the ones who are in power right now. ”
"I understand, but I'm just unwilling!"
They shouted without hesitation, and if they only listened to this passage, they could only conclude that these were people from two large families, whose position had been robbed, and now they were complaining. Even if he was a little angry, nothing superfluous was revealed in this conversation, and he maintained due caution in anger.
The two of them kept complaining, rubbing shoulders with Albert and Cecilia.
I can only say that the world is really small, isn't it? It is now almost certain that those two are the older brothers of the legendary George Bernard Shaw.
But they didn't do anything superfluous, here, they should follow the rules, and George Bernard Shaw has escaped from the control of the family, and now he is not knowing where to be happy, and to do these things again is really to add to the snake and meddle in things.
So these four people just passed by.
It seems that the child with good magical talent has compromised very thoroughly, they have already intervened on the mainland, and in another ten years, there will be one more in the chain of interests, a chain of interests belonging to the Tom family.
"That's what you're saying it's going to be okay?" At this time, she was still in the mood to tease, "Isn't that a thing?"
"Accidents, accidents. He casually pointed to a material store, "It's somewhere to go." ”
A standard, common material store, where you can buy all kinds of things, can buy a store here, there are some doorways, so in addition to the goods provided by the shops in the city, you can also buy a lot of contraband, such as the main material of [High Poison Elixir], or a lot of very harmful materials, as long as you have money, you can buy it.
And it's cheaper to buy here, because there are a lot less processes, especially without middlemen, and the materials are much cheaper, especially with the recent addition of a new product that weighs almost 100 tons.
What just happened was just a small episode, and they all chose to forget.
As long as you don't do superfluous things, no one will do anything to you here.
So it's a pity that there's no cool point here.
Shops don't bully, everything is kept at a reasonable price, at least if you only buy materials, they won't try to slaughter you, each store has been in business for more than a hundred years, and the shopkeepers are even more credibility than the merchants of the [Table World].
The owner of the shop is a middle-aged man with a gloomy tone, but he is still very enthusiastic and gives them a discount when buying materials.
It was supposed to be a man with a bit of a story, with a few magical burns on his face.
Because there were few guests, two people who were very close in mental age also played a game of cards together.
Good luck to this uncle.
