It's not quite conceived yet, and a week off isn't enough...

Please take three more days, and the update will be officially resumed on the 10th.

This chapter is what I forcibly coded (water) out to prevent 7 consecutive days from not causing the reader's investment to fail... I'm sorry(/ω\)

..................................................

A week later.

April 4, 1999, morning.

The new headquarters of the organization in Rome, a beautiful European-style mansion.

In the past, the Passion organization didn't even have a boss who dared to show his head, let alone a serious organizational headquarters.

But now it is different, in the new era and new atmosphere, the first thing the new leader Giorno Chopperna did after taking office was to change the policy of spy governance and white terror implemented by Diablo in the past, and make the administrative management of the organization completely open and transparent:

In the past, Diablo was used to hiding his head and tail, sneaky, and sneaky to clean the door.

Li Qing and Giorno are different.

They never engage in assassination.

They kill people in the open.

There is no way, as soon as Giorno and Bugarati's new policy of banning "local trade" was proposed, and even before it could be officially implemented, it had already provoked a fierce backlash from many vested interests.

Now, even the lesson of the defeat of the assassination team is not enough to deter those careerists.

Therefore, this so-called "organizational headquarters" is actually a ring set up by Li Qing and others for these careerists.

They have been honestly staying in this ring for the past week, openly and secretly investigating Diablo's whereabouts, while waiting for those anti-backbone boys who are extremely dissatisfied with the new leadership and new policies to come and look for death on their own - yes, they are indeed looking for death.

Because when those anti-bone boys come to the door with excitement, they will find that the situation is completely different from the information they have obtained in advance:

First of all, Li Qing's strength is two levels higher than what is described in the intelligence.

This huge and fatal intelligence error made several challengers who over-relied on intelligence tragically resented Li Qing.

Secondly, these anti-bone boys are also completely unaware of the existence of Jotaro and Platinum Star.

There's this man with invincible on his face standing here...

Many of the great guys who came to challenge the boss couldn't even go up the stairs of the mansion, and they didn't even know what means their enemies used, so they were inexplicably beaten and seriously injured like ghosts.

In this way, because all the people who came to the headquarters of this organization to challenge have not returned, and because the name of the new boss, Giorno Giobana, is abbreviated in Italian as GIOGIO...

Therefore, within the organization, among the members of the organization who have been silently paying attention to the recent changes, the mansion where Li Qing and others chose to be the headquarters was actually rumored to be a "Gio Demon Pavilion".

"It's been three days in a row..."

"There hasn't been an anti-bone boy coming to send experience for three days in a row."

Sitting slumped on the sofa, Li Qing sighed boredly:

"It seems that you have completely secured the position of this 'boss', Giorno."

"Probably so."

"There are enough lessons to be learned."

"As long as the rest of the people are not stupid, they will settle down and recognize us as the boss."

Giorno said calmly

His sitting posture maintained his usual elegance, in stark contrast to Li Qing, who collapsed on the sofa like a slime:

"However, this stability is certainly only temporary."

"When our policy of banning 'specialty trade' is officially implemented, there will definitely be more contradictions in the organization... Or even splits. ”

Reform is never easy, not to mention that Giorno wants to move such a big piece of cake.

The mafia doesn't work in the Passion organization for any kind of righteousness, all they want is profit, just an opportunity to share the cake.

At the beginning, Diablo relied on the profits of the specialty trade to at least feed the top of the organization, but Giorno wanted to take away such a large piece of cake, and he couldn't come up with a new cake for everyone to share.

If you don't have financial resources, no matter how much you have in savings, you will be empty, and the members of the organization will definitely be disgruntled when their income has plummeted.

Thinking of this, Giorno couldn't help but feel a little tingling in his scalp.

Unlike Li Qing, who has no interest in these mundane things and only wants to "surpass sentient beings", he is really doing it as a lifelong career.

And to manage such a huge underground violent gang well, the difficulty is enough to give him, a first-year junior high school student who is precocious and intelligent, a headache.

"It doesn't matter, it's all about money."

"As long as we can make enough money to feed everybody."

Li Qing gave a solution in his casual tone.

"Make money?"

"We're not going to fill the hole..."

"Is there any business that is more profitable than selling souvenirs?"

Giorno asked, puzzled.

"Yes, don't forget-"

"I'm also an 'economist' who can predict the economic trend in the next 20 years."

Li Qing reminded him mysteriously, and Giorno suddenly remembered that Li Qing seemed to have always had some kind of strange ability to predict the general trend of the world in the future.

This inexplicable ability once saved everyone's lives on the way to escape.

And now, I only heard Li Qing say with confidence:

"Investments that take a few years to pay off, I remember... Ahem... I predict..."

"The Internet economic bubble in the U.S. stock market will probably peak in March next year."

"With so much liquidity in the organization and no shortage of professional financial talents, we can seize the right time to go long and short, and repeatedly cut two waves of capitalist leeks."

"You know, this cutting leeks is more ruthless than selling specialties to make money..."

Li Qing said loudly about his plan to make money.

In terms of investment, almost as good as Li Qing, a hearsay guy, the layman Giorno listened very seriously.

"If it can be realized, the future development of the organization will be solved."

"When the time comes, the policy of banning trade in specialty products should be implemented smoothly."

Giorno's expression finally softened.

He's almost going to change the country.

Dreams must be fully realized as never before.

Thinking of this, there was a rare smile on Giorno's face that remained resolute at all times.

But he was precocious and seemed to be born with an idle mind.

After thoroughly finding a solution to the internal contradictions of the organization, Giorno began to struggle with the unresolved external contradictions:

"Now, then, the first problem is Diablo."

"The tech team has investigated almost all of Itali in the course of a week, but they have never been able to find any trace of this guy."

"According to the opinion of the science and technology team, if Diablo is either hiding in some backcountry and has completely stopped his activities, or has been... has fled abroad. ”

The Passion Organisation's control over Itali is almost absolute, and Polunarev had been trapped for so many years without finding a chance to leave.

But Diablo is different, he created the Passion organization.

No one knows more about the PASSION organization than he does.

Therefore, the science and technology team believes that if it is Diablo, it is entirely possible to escape abroad without the eyes of the organization.

Hearing this news, Li Qing, who had always had an indifferent expression, also looked not so relaxed:

The Earth is so big, who knows where Diablo will flee.

And Diablo's ability is simply invincible when used in assassination sneak attacks.

Having such a big problem hidden in the shadows is as terrifying as seeing a cockroach disappear under the bed at home.

"Where do you think he's going to flee?"

Li Qing had no idea at all, so he could only ask Giorno's opinion.

"I think..."

Giorno really seems to have a little guess.

But before he could say what he was guessing in his heart, Jotaro hurriedly pushed the door in:

"No more guessing."

"I probably already know Diablo's whereabouts."

He said it straight to the point.

"Where?"

Li Qing and Giorno both looked a little surprised.

"Duwang Town."

"That's where I came from."

Jotaro said with a solemn expression.

"Who's out there?" Giorno cautiously asked, "Is this news credible?" How did the provider of the message determine Diablo in Duwang Town? ”

"It's the East Shosuke... My..."

"Uncle."

Jotaro was silent for a moment before he reluctantly choked out this worthy title:

"He said that he had just saved a stand-in, and that the stand-in emissary's enemies had shown what was suspected to be the ability to 'cut through time'."

"In other words, Diablo is likely to be in Duwang Town now."

"Why?" Li Qing was a little puzzled: "What did he do when he went around half the world to Duwang Town?" Changing homes? ”

"This may... It's because there are arrows in Duwang Town. ”

"And, I once accidentally leaked this to him on the phone."

As he spoke, Jotaro frowned tightly:

"There is more than one arrow in the world, and other arrows may also have the effect of strengthening the double."

"Diablo probably just wants to take advantage of this to make a comeback."

"I see!"

At this point, everything becomes clear.

Li Qing immediately couldn't wait to say:

"Anyway, the organization has stabilized for the time being, so let's just rush to Duwang Town now."

"Hmm." Jotaro's action is stronger than Li Qing: "I have asked the consortium to prepare air tickets, and everyone can leave at any time." ”

With almost no hesitation, the plan for this trip halfway around the world was finalized by the two of them.

"Wait..."

Giorno noticed something that was temporarily ignored by everyone:

"Who was the stand-in messenger who was saved by your uncle?"

"He didn't know why he fought Diablo for no reason – if that was Diablo."

"This..."

Jotaro thought for a moment:

"According to Zhansuke, that guy is just an ordinary citizen."

"He doesn't seem to have seen much of the other stand-in messengers before, and he doesn't even know the concept of a stand-in."

"As for why you messed with Diablo... I heard that it seems to be just an accident? ”

"Ordinary citizens?"

"Or a pure layman?"

Hearing this, Li Qing couldn't help but be amazed:

"A rookie stand-in can survive at the hands of Diablo, this guy really has potential."

"What's his name? I'd like to get to know. ”

"Hmm..."

Jotaro carefully recalled this name that he didn't take much to heart:

"That guy seems to be called..."

"Kira Yoshikage?"
