Chapter 124 - Dior's World 02
"This is "Delta-1", we have reached the target location, and now we can see the location of "Delta-10" and "Angel", there is no abnormality, over. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ infoβ
Behind the huge billboard of the abandoned gas station in the distance of Shevolt, Daria lies on the ground with a gun on her shoulder, reporting to the operations center. Dio gathered everyone in this operation and deliberately brought Sakuya to the mafia's territory in order to lure the other party to make a move. Since the other party even dares to make a move, then Dio may also be on the opponent's attack list, if as V said, he is not the other party's person, and then "Skal" or the black hand behind the scenes, will continue to act. And apart from Sherlock, the person closest to the truth is none other than Dior.
The fact that Dio came to the mafia's territory may become the weakness of the other party, and if someone comes to attack, it will be very close to Dior's conjecture. If the other party does not come to attack, it may be that the mafia is not important, or it may be that he is afraid of this, no matter which side it is, Dior can continue his own investigation.
"Delta-1, this is Command. There is a new situation on the Delta-2 and Delta-3 side, so check with your scope. To the northwest, there are strange pedestrians trailing Delta-10 near the train station. β
Odd pedestrian?Daria turned her gun away, narrowing her eyes. She quickly found the man Su Yuan from the command near the train station, a man wearing a funny Fox mask and wearing a costume and cape.
"Command, the presence of the target has been confirmed, and it has been confirmed that it is the "V" encountered by "Dleta-10" a day ago. Do you hear that? β
"Don't worry about him, pay attention to whether there is anyone else, Daria, after I enter the territory of the mafia, the people who are close to confirm the existence and then confirm it with thermal imaging, if the thermal imaging shows that the state is different from that of humans, immediately start the capture or annihilation operation, no need to ask for instructions, just the target is alive, above. β
After Dior finished speaking, he led Saki to the door of the former boss of Shevt's mafia, who is now a 'successful' person. Looking around the fence, there were a lot of monitors and other things, the security guard at the door glanced at Dior, immediately said something to the headset, and then heard some instructions, before and after Dior walked to the door, the security guard nodded slightly to Dior.
"It's Miss Dio Connor, Mr. William is already waiting for you," said the security guard, "and please leave the gun to us for safekeeping..."
"Really, do you think I need a gun to kill?" Dior sneered, and then rubbed Sakuya's hair with a very doting look, "If he meets me, it means that he is not worried that I will do it, learn a little, if I am here to smash the field, I will not take such a little guy with me." β
β... Got it, please come in. The security guard didn't say much, even if Dio broke through, relying on their bodyguards was no match for this former mercenary of the Hunter Department.
If she was afraid of Dior, she would not have been allowed to enter the house directly. But... already knew that she was coming, that William's power still hadn't declined, and 'abdicating to make way for Xian' would not exhaust the connections and power he had worked so hard to accumulate, and it was because of this that this William would give up his position to the young man. The longer he stays in the position of the mafia, the more people want his life.
Why not worry that Dio will want his life? Dior has been 'climbing up', meeting the queen and the prime minister, building a good relationship with the Ming Empire, and creating the "D-10", any of which is inseparable from people. If Dior really wanted to do it, it would never be her in person. William understood this, so he wasn't worried that the girl would have that kind of thought.
The land is all owned by Williams, there is not even a single high-rise building nearby, and the nearest building is an abandoned gas station on the side of the road more than two kilometers away, and there is no spot around it that can be sniped. Coming to the greenhouse of the mansion, an old man in a thick woolen sweater was carrying a kettle to water plants, when he heard footsteps, and after about a second, he tried to straighten up and put down the kettle as if he had just reacted.
He is like the kind of old man who has done a lifetime of 'dirty work' and finally retired into a retirement career. With gray hair and gray sideburns, stiff movements and cloudy eyes, only serenity and kindness can be seen on the face that has been through vicissitudes, and there is no trace of the anger that should belong to the mafia. It is under this unthreatening exterior that one of England's most evil souls lodges.
β... I thought you would have come here a few years earlier, come on, sit down. A smile erupted from William's old face.
He pulled the chair in the conservatory and set it in front of the small round table, he lifted the teapot and poured a cup of black tea into the teacup that had been prepared on the table.
Dior sat down unceremoniously across from him, and Sakura sat down on a chair next to him. William glanced at the ridiculous little girl, with a hint of nostalgia in his eyes, and then asked:
"Is this your daughter?"
"My immediate family, so to speak. Dio didn't shy away from it, she knew that this old man wouldn't spread this kind of thing everywhere.
β... Like you when you were a child, you didn't say a word, quiet like a puppet," William said suddenly, "At that time, Dalio was a man of true temperament, the one who dared to break into my territory casually, he was not the first, but he was the only one who lived well after not being allowed to break into my territory, do you know why?"
Seeing that Dio was silent, William calmly picked up the teacup and took a sip, then said slowly:
"He was very smart, and to this day I still wonder why someone as smart as him could have such a miserable life. You've probably heard that he used to resell arms, and he orchestrated it, and I... is one of the practitioners. Thanks to him, I have achieved all those things in the past. I'm ready to slaughter him when he opens his mouth, and then you don't know what he says, and the bastard said, 'I just want a wife, do you have human traffickers here?'. I couldn't laugh or cry, but... He was really smart, he didn't ask for anything, but I gave him some money and what he wanted, and that's what he deserved. β
"I didn't invite him to join me, and he didn't ask for it. Because he was a threat to me that would threaten my position, he knew that, and after that, I turned a blind eye to what he was doing on our turf. He's a very interesting guy, if only he were alive now, and I wanted him to do something for me when I retired. β
"What do you know about the woman you sold him?" Dior asked.
β......β
William didn't answer, he stared at the shaking black tea in his teacup, reflecting his old face. Dio waited quietly, and Sakura's eyes flickered back and forth in front of the two, as if she was thinking about something.
How long had it been? Five minutes? Dio didn't know until William coughed that he sighed.
β... She is my illegitimate daughter. In the past, this matter was an unspeakable secret, but now it is not. β
βοΌβ
"It was my daughter with a prostitute, and I wanted her to live an ordinary life, but she fell in love with that bastard Dalio. β
β... That's why you tolerate him, I see," Dior pinched his teacup ear and narrowed his eyes, "yes, at that time, your mafia power was not large enough to be qualified to carry out human trafficking, how could there be any women abducted from other countries, I should have thought of it a long time ago." That's why you're willing to see me..."
"I don't care if you're going to pull out your gun and send me to the sky," William interrupted, "'Scarr' approached me before and said it would make me young again, but at the cost of making me work for them. But ah... After all, people have a 'destiny', and at some point, they will feel that it is time for their life to end. Their technology will be the mainstream in the future, but it will not be them who control everything. "Skal" thinks he has mastered the human psyche, what a joke, but I am convinced that there is a heaven in this world. β
"Do you think you can go to heaven?"
"How can a bad old man who has killed a lot of people and made countless people miserable go to heaven?, and before he dies, make my shroud into a pocket and give it all to the gods?" William snorted, "What are you kidding, people like me deserve to go to hell, and Dalio's bastard is no different." But so what? Even if I do go to hell, I won't regret what I did. Everybody does it, they go to hell and I should go there. The purpose of the "Skar" is obvious, they want to use that technology to control the British. The idiots in the British government must have taken a great interest in 'infinite life'. β
'Those who pursue material, sensual, and worldly pleasures prolong their worthless lives, while those who pursue spiritual values are reluctant to disobey a higher calling. The result is the survival of the most unwell. Sherlock's assessment of "Scar" is really to the point.
"'Dleta-10', in this case, 'Delta-2', a new target has emerged, and a capture operation is underway. A voice came from Dior's headphones.
"Well, let's stop there. β
Dio stood up.
β... You're just as smart as Dalio, and you're just as much of a jerk," William smiled a little lonely, "but in this world, only bastards like us can live better, so..."
"I'm the biggest bastard in the world. Dior chuckled.
