Chapter 15: Black Auction Aid
As the saying goes, plans can't keep up with change.
Lloyd's plan was not inadequate, nor was his official inquisitor's credentials. But, perhaps because of a lack of experience, or perhaps simply ignoring this point, a factor that Lloyd did not notice at all became the biggest variable in the whole plan.
That isβhow could the elite troops led by the "Killing Bear" obediently act according to Lloyd's ideas?
As a seasoned hunter, Garcia was more accurate in his judgment of form, and somehow he always had an astonishing instinct to find the truth of the matter through careful cause and effect and logicβalmost in a split second, Garcia guessed that his opponent must be planning to go to the docks and leave Mishuram by boat. Therefore, as soon as there was a sign of commotion at the venue, he immediately sent a message to his accomplices who had been ambushed at the pier in advance, towing away all the boats that could sail away, or blowing them up and sinking them on the spot.
Therefore, when Lloyd and his party came to the edge of the dock, looking at the bare berths and the ambushed mafia that the growlers rushed up, their hearts naturally collapsed. Without further ado, since they may not be able to get out for a while, the only way to do this is the second walk as planned-after meeting with Randy and the others, they go back to the rich area, and take advantage of the mentality of "Rubacher" who does not dare to offend the powerful people who live here, and play hide and seek with them.
Naturally, this was also expected by Garcia - when he realized it through the actions of Lloyd and others, he almost burst into tears.
This is where Speaker Harutman lives, and because of the auction, it is currently armed with hundreds of members of the "Rubacher" and dozens of vicious hounds - in other words, it can be said that this is the home of the "Rubacher". Trying to waste time with the opponent at home...... It's not wise in the first place.
In this way, various weaknesses on Lloyd's side slowly emerged. One of the deadliest is the serious lack of physical fitness of Theo and Ellie; Kia was also out of breath early.
After all, they are not people who have been baptized on the battlefield for a long time, and this kind of high-intensity exercise is indeed a bit unbearable for them.
"It's a problem...... after another head-on confrontation with a patrolling mafia member on a street corner, the fatigue of several women present finally aroused Lloyd's alarm. He knew that this was not the way to goβand that was going to have to come up with a next step.
Randy...... And Mr. Lawrence. Lloyd asked, "Is there anything you can do to help us break through this cage?" β
"What do you say?" Levi is still the same, and as long as Lloyd doesn't say it, he won't do anything superfluous. In fact, if Lloyd really knew and trusted his strength, he could easily solve this problem with an all-out shot. However, he is very smart, and Heliga just means to help them not fail or be caught by the other party - after all, this is not the first time that this group of reckless young people has hindered "Rubacher", and this time it also caused a riot at the auction, which made Speaker Harutman lose face, and if caught, the consequences could be much worse than normal - of course, this is just Levy's own assumption. In fact, whether it is Lloyd, who is the younger brother of the head of the search section, or Ellie, who is the granddaughter of Mayor McDowell, even if they are caught by Lubacher, I am afraid that no one will dare to touch them casually.
"Only a frontal defeat of Garcia." Unlike Levi's indifferent paddling attitude, Randy's eyes became extremely sharp at this moment, and even Levi was a little impressed with him, "Not here...... The streets are too empty for me to play. β
"Hmm...... The opponent is armed with heavy weapons, so it is too dangerous to fight here. Waji glanced at the panting women's trio, "How about you go to the warehouse area on the other side of the dock?" There are many warehouses over there, and they are staggered, which is not suitable for the play of the opponent's weapons. β

In the city of "Damn ......" Crossbell, in the building where the "Secret Service Support Section" is located, Guy Bannings is pacing back and forth with an attitude of anxiety that has never been seen before. Even the promise of his former boss Sergei to go out in person this time and just set off could not dispel this deep uneasiness in his heart.
"You can't solve the problem if you're in such a hurry." Arios on the side patiently persuaded, "It's not the first time that the 'Black Auction' has restricted you from investigating...... You should be glad that your brother and they can use their connections to find an opportunity to enter and find information. β
"For them...... Going straight into the rear of the enemy, it's too dangerous! Lloyd was such a reckless character, and Theo, although sensible, did not refute his authority very much-"
"He's eighteen."
"Even so, I'm a little worried...... He hadn't been out of school for a long time, and he didn't understand many things...... Guy's tone gradually lowered, "He's not the kid from Heliga, and I can't even understand the wit and weirdness......"
"Speaking of which, he seems to have mentioned that he was going to that auction too......" Speaking of Helika, Arios remembered what the boy had inadvertently told him earlier, "Oh, this is ......"
Before they could finish speaking, the ringing of the bell from the room next to the kitchen attracted the attention of the two men. Guy sped over in three steps and two steps, and noticed that the incoming bell on the communicator was ringing rapidly.
"Probably looking for the section chief...... Words at this point in time. "Chief Sergei's attack to help was originally a temporary decision, if everything goes according to plan, the section chief himself should still be in the room now, "Is it appropriate for us to take this?" β
"If you're looking for the section chief, excuse yourself and say there's something going on with the chief......," Guy didn't say no, and pressed the button to access the communicationβand then there was a strange noise and commotion from there.
"Is this the Special Assignment Support Division?" The voice of the inquiry over there made both Arios and Guy exclaim at the same time: "Heliga? β
ββ¦β¦ How about the two of you? The voice on the other end of the communicator also subsided a little eagerly, with some confusion, "Shouldn't this be the 'Secret Service Support Section'?" I specifically asked Lloyd for the number he wanted......"
"That's true...... But the section chief, who said he was afraid that Lloyd and they would be in danger, so he went out to rescue them alone......" Guy said.
"Hmm...... Should I say that it is worthy of your old leader, this intuition is really amazing. "Indeed, they are now being hunted down by the members of Rubacher because of the trouble they have caused...... But in reality, they don't actually have a dangerous ......."
"What do you mean by that?" Arios couldn't cry or laugh, he was chased and killed all over the street, and he was still called no danger?
"Because...... I also left them a reliable helper. β
