Chapter 51: Unity of Purpose

At the entrance of the orphanage, the people from the Ripley Chamber of Commerce swaggered in. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Because the wanted warrant was still hanging high in the north star city, Su Mu could not be found by Ripley's people, and he hid in the back garden of the orphanage under the protection of Alec and Qinia. Claudia, Jace, and Carreda walked to the orphanage gates.

The children were playing happily at the door, and I saw a person led by the Rapley Chamber of Commerce enter the door and kick the child's buttocks, and his face was full of pleasure of bullying the weak.

As the child fled in tears, one of the companions said, "Matt, don't go too far, I'm just here to give an ultimatum today." ”

A few days ago, Matt followed the security team to the Yuegui Orphanage to find a wanted criminal, and was disgraced by the wonderful performances of Su Mu and Tong Ya, who were wearing makeup at the time, and completely lost face. This time when he returned to the orphanage, he would definitely have to vent well, and the child, this kind of casual bullying and no risk object, how could Matt let it go.

"Hey, hey! These little ghosts are about to turn into wanderers called Hanako! When the time comes, they will be caught and sold, and they can make a lot of money! Matt's brow fluttered, and a rush of energy raced from his feet to the top of his head, a sense of self that made him completely unaware of Jace's approach.

"Why are you again?" Jace's words were as cold as if they were about to kill, and he was a full head above Matt, his eyes fixed on the villain of the Ripley Chamber of Commerce in front of him.

"Ahhh Help me! Matt, who was still in a state of spirit, was frightened by Jace, screamed and hid behind his companion's back, and did not recover until he was calmed down for a few minutes.

Looking at Claudia and Dean Carreda who were already standing in front of him, Matt glanced at Jace again, swallowed his saliva, and thought that there were also a bunch of people behind him, he puffed up his chest and said in a sharp voice: "The great and glorious North Star City Church has reached an agreement with the big businessman Mr. Ripley on cooperation!" Transfer this land to Mr. Ripley, and your good days of eating and living for nothing will soon be over! ”

As he spoke, Matt regained his sense of flying and domineering, hugged the thigh of the Ripley Chamber of Commerce, making him feel like a human being, and raised his voice by an octave, continuing the second half of his content: "This land will be built into a prosperous entertainment palace under the management of our Ripley Chamber of Commerce, and become the most prestigious place in North Star City!" You garbage, just roll up and roll up, we've already got permission from Archbishop Hainault! ”

With that last word, Matt threw the paper with the ecclesiastical fire paint in Kareda's face, and when he saw Kareda pick it up with a sad face, he felt a sense of accomplishment in his heart.

Unlike the elderly and powerless Carreda, after reading the documents, Claudia walked up to Matt, tore them up in front of him a few times, and left a sentence: "This land belongs to the Laurel Orphanage, and it also belongs to the Holy Dragon Helrath, and the Holy Dragon will smile when he sees the children grow strongly, and I believe that the Holy Dragon Church is the same." With that, Claudia didn't want to waste any more time on this dogleg and turned around and walked towards the orphanage hall.

"Dean, don't worry, I will definitely protect the children, and I will defend this home they rely on for survival." Claudia gave Carreda a firm look, she had lost her brother, and she didn't want these children to lose their growth right now. These children have either lost their parents or have no permanent home, and without an orphanage, they simply do not survive. Kareda also had no more financial resources to buy a new piece of land to raise them.

Yuegui Orphanage is a church orphanage, the land and funds are provided by the church, when Su Cheng was alive, he often took care of it, and from time to time to fund Kareda, which made her have a very good impression of Su Cheng and have a long-term trust. Therefore, this old Holy Dragon believer also believes in Su Cheng's son Su Mu, and firmly believes that the Su family is by no means a criminal.

"You... You stinky bitch! Brothers her! There are so many of us! Matt felt that his self-esteem had been ignored and trampled on by Claudia, and with a wave of his hand, he asked the bodyguards around him to teach Claudia a lesson.

The bodyguards had barely taken a few steps when they saw Jace quickly step forward and punch one person, hitting the vital point and knocking a circle of people directly to the ground. These people are very ordinary, and they can only bully and bully powerless civilians in normal times, and Jace doesn't need to deal with them for ten seconds.

Seeing the bodyguard being knocked to the ground, Matt lost his square inch, he was grabbed by Jace stepped forward, "Get out...", Jace pushed him after speaking, and the panicked Matt lay directly on the ground, he was already in a cold sweat, and his heart was about to jump out of his heart when he was frightened by Jace.

This was the third time he had fallen to the ground in shame. Ignoring the bodyguards, Matt got up and ran out of the orphanage, shouting, "There is still half a month!" We'll see! "It echoed in the air, and then dispersed for a long time.

With the disappearance of Ripley's followers, Su Mu and the others returned to the hall.

Claudia saw Su Mu, who was gradually improving, and said, "Come to my room at night and talk about the future arrangements." Su Mu nodded, the restlessness and loss in his heart had not completely subsided, but there was not much time to ease it now, and his enemies would not give him so much time to be hypocritical.

※※※※※※※※※※

As night fell, everyone went to Claudia's room.

Before, Alec gave Wang Li's letter to Su Mu, Su Mu hurried to read the letter in its entirety, he couldn't help but sigh at his mother's resourcefulness and ingenuity, Wang Li's worries and speculations, all verified in the eavesdropping of Jenny Rose Fang: Su Lun and Ripley pushed their strategic mineral smuggling and drug trafficking to the Su family; Having an affair with Messidia; There is support from the relationship between the government and the church. In the end, Wang Li's sentence "The relationship between Alec and Renee can play a vital role this time" kept lingering in his mind, and Su Mu knew that this would directly affect the direction of the next chess game in North Star City.

On the way to Claudia's room, Su Mu was thinking about how to deal with it, when Qinia suddenly pulled him aside and muttered in a low voice: "There are some things that we have to agree on now, and it is inconvenient to talk about them later." ”

Su Mu looked at Qinia's serious and worried eyes, and nodded lightly: "Say, it should be a matter of the compass, right?" ”

Finding that Su Mu comprehended, Qinia was a lot more relaxed, and she was ready to make a long story short: "The compass is the purpose of Ma Jia and the black robes, and now it is not clear what they want to do with this, so let's not say it and involve everyone." In addition, Su Lun and Ripley want to get rid of the Su family and say that these black robes are hired killers, what do you think? ”

"Yes, the two thieves captured me alive in order to lure out my brother and mother, so that we can wipe out our Su family and wipe them out." Su Mu blurted out the second half, explaining it in this way, which could not only avoid involving Alec and them in the compass incident, but also not affect everyone to fight against Ripley and Su Lun together.

Qinia made a "no problem" gesture to Su Mu and pulled Su Mu to walk towards the destination together.

After opening the door, Qinia and Su Mu found a seat together, Jace, Claudia, and Alec had been waiting for a long time.

"Yo, you two are on such a good relationship now? It's so tightly glued. Alec winked at Su Mu and teased.

Of course, Su Mu didn't pay much attention to him.

Seeing that everyone was in place, Claudia opened the conversation: "From today onwards, I officially accept Ms. Wang Li's invitation to become Su Mu's personal guard. Of course, this is Su Mu's mother's personal entrustment to me, and it has nothing to do with the Jace Mercenary Group. In the future, I will always protect and help Su Mu and fulfill my contract. ”

Jace wasn't surprised, his expression was still indifferent, and he said coldly, "Since you've decided, let's do it... In this way, you can officially intervene in the affairs of the orphanage, and it will not affect your commission. ”

Jace had fully seen Claudia's mind after her decision, and he knew that Claudia's promise to Careda in the afternoon was not a casual word, including Claudia's previous investigation into the corruption of the church in North Star City, which made Claudia's involvement in this matter logical. She didn't just fulfill the contract, she was kind and wanted to help Su Mu wash away the stigma of the Su family, but considering the Jace mercenary group, it has been difficult to act.

"Thank you, Jace. I'm sure I won't get involved. ”

"No, we've known each other for eighteen years." Jace's words were cold, but they made Claudia feel very relieved. No one here knows Claudia as well as Jace.

If something happened to Claudia, Jace would be the first to save her.

"Claudia, Cinea and I have heard a lot of important things in the Jenny Rose Square and the Cathedral of North Star City, which are related to our future arrangements." Su Mu started the topic that he really wanted to discuss tonight.

"Su Lun and Ripley smuggled black iron ore and sold it to Messidia, and also sold the drug "Forget Worry Incense", and put all the charges on our Su family, which is one of them. ”

"Hire a black-robed killer who wants to catch me, so as to fish out my brother and mother, and completely eradicate our Su family, this is the second."

"Using the female slaves and money connections in the suburban villas to bribe officials and corrupt the church in North Star City in order to expand their own power, this is the third."

"These three points are the main dynamics of these two guys, among them, Ripley is dominant, and Suren just wants to monopolize the Su family's industry. Ripley's claws have now extended to all parts of North Star City, he not only wants this orphanage, he also wants to demolish the slums, become the master of the Chamber of Commerce Alliance, kill the First Chamber of Commerce, the Autumn Wind Chamber of Commerce, and through his relationship with the government, and finally become the master of the city. ”

Su Mu said without thinking, and for these things, he delicately summarized them and threw them in front of others.

Seeing the people who were in deep thought, Su Mu added: "They are in full swing now, but I think this is an illusion, as long as we start from a point, we can slowly disintegrate it, and I and the Thieves Guild have designed to capture Ripley's son Devit, and we also plan to use Devitt's mouth to make Ripley and Suren suspicious of each other, and finally turn against each other!" ”

Su Mu said the last few words fiercely, he hammered the wall with his fist, and a wave of hatred arose in his heart. If Dad can delay his execution by a week, then chances are he'll be able to see through the two old guys' fragile alliances and plans.

"Listening to you say that, I believe you already have a plan, don't talk nonsense, just say what you think." What Claudia wanted to say, Su Mu said, she didn't want to spend more time, and it was the first thing to go directly to the topic and find a solution.

Su Mu moved his gaze to the map of North Star City in Claudia's room, and Alec understood it and immediately brought the map to the table.

Su Mu picked up the pen and drew circles on the map, while saying: "Next, we will use Alec's relationship in the Thieves' Guild to consolidate the alliance with the Dark Shadow World, conduct a thorough investigation from the information DeWitt said, and dig out the evidence of Ripley and Su Lun's smuggling and drug trafficking." ”

"Second, go to the suburban villa, where I heard that there is a lot of evidence of Ripley's bribery of officials. In addition, the Ripley Chamber of Commerce, which is a traditional industry, is very afraid of the Autumn Wind Chamber of Commerce, especially the Autumn Wind Chamber of Commerce has recently started the introduction of new spirit child equipment, and they will definitely send people to cause trouble, so with this opportunity, if I can unite the Autumn Wind Chamber of Commerce, we will also have many strong allies. ”

"Finally, I have a friend named Renee, who has a deep relationship and is able to contact Sheriff Director Wendell to do something, and I think she can also get the church through her connections. Even this is where we need an entry point, and if we can find evidence of them in business, government, and church, we can turn the tables around. ”

As soon as Su Mu finished speaking, Claudia picked up: "Don't worry, I have an entry point here in the church." I have an old friend who helped me find out some of the problems of Archbishop Heinault, and I think I can dig up the evidence if I go deeper. And the Inquisition of the Imperial Capital is coming soon, and if I can take this opportunity to dig up the evidence you mentioned, I think it will be a good opportunity. ”

Claudia smiled slightly, and the next content made her very confident: "The inquisitor Talia who came this time heard that she is a chaste woman who is a noble woman, and she is not inferior to the "immaculate knight" among the seven knights in terms of fame and personality, I think, if she knows about the slave girl in the suburban villa..."

Su Mu smelled the smell of the reversal, he felt that the blood in his whole body was agitated, although it was not easy to do these things well, but success would reverse the situation.

He looked at Alec who was gearing up on the side, Qinia, whose eyes were always firm, and Claudia and Jace, who were calm, and pulled out the Antya dagger at his waist and thrust it into the map.

"Let's do it!"
