Chapter Twenty-Four: Disaster Falls from Heaven

Imperial capital.

There is already a curfew.

On the streets of the imperial capital, patrols appeared one after another, patrolling with weapons.

The entire imperial capital, because of the curfew, was completely quiet, and the light was dimmed by more than half. In addition to the street lights on the side of the road and the bustling homes, more than eighty percent of the homes have turned off their lights and entered a state of curfew.

Under the shroud of the 'world', Gao gradually walked casually.

Some of the patrol members passed by Gao Jian, but they didn't notice him, and Gao Jian looked at the patrol people curiously.

I have to say that the strength of the people in these patrols is really strong, even if it is an ordinary soldier, they are all people who practice forging postures, and at least they are people above the intermediate forging postures.

He saw that these people were angry and arrogant, and when he saw anyone in the street, he immediately arrested them.

The unlucky drunkard was caught and dragged away like a dead dog, and the drunkard woke up in fright, screaming and begging for mercy, but after being broken, he still ignored it and continued to be arrested.

The drunkard scolded in pain, and was stabbed in the head by these people, and the corpse was thrown into the garbage heap in the corner like garbage.

After they left, the streets were clean again.

"What a ruthless method!" Even if Gao gradually watched it, he was shocked by the cruel methods of this imperial capital, and he was a little uncomfortable. However, it's just uncomfortable, the person he hates the most is the drunkard, and the drunkard dies when he dies.

He ignored it and walked straight into the darkness, where there were no street lights.

He found that where there was no light, there was no one to patrol, the imperial capital was too big, and he didn't know how many people would be better if such patrols continued.

These dark places belong to civilians, and the houses are relatively ordinary, and Gao gradually walked here and watched. Fortunately, it was calm here, nothing bad happened, and the imperial capital seemed to be as terrifying as no one said.

Gao gradually saw an inn and pushed the door in.

"Guest, do you want to stay at the hotel?" The shopkeeper inside glanced at Gao Yan in surprise, and then asked in a low voice.

"Stay, do you have rooms here?" Take me there! Gao gradually threw away a piece of silver.

"Yes! Yes! Yes! The small ones will take the guests there! The shopkeeper, who was about to ask Gao Yan's origin, took the silver and took a bite in his mouth, and after confirming that it was true, he excitedly took Gao Yan to find a guest room.

"Guest, is there anything else you need?" Having money makes the ghost easy to grind, and the money gradually opens the way, so that the shopkeeper is extra attentive.

Three days later.

Gao gradually walked the streets of a relatively cheap slum in the imperial capital.

Not to mention that the streets were dirty, and he also felt some unkind eyes on the side of the road, which looked at Gao gradually and eagerly, like looking at a fat sheep.

After all, these people didn't hold back their own greed and came towards Gao gradually to kill.

"Look for death!" With a wave of the knife in his hand, blood spurted from the bodies of those who had struck him, and then they broke in two and fell to the ground.

The man who fell to the ground did not die immediately, but struggled in pain on the ground for a minute or two before dying.

This terrifying and cruel death instantly frightened the unscrupulous people around him.

Gao gradually saw that no one came to disturb him anymore, and he walked out here slowly—these people he killed were all vicious rats and parasites in the slums, and he was not merciless in killing such a group of people. Those people in the slums are already having a hard time, and there are still these people who are parasitic, and Gao gradually kills these people, and he is not without psychological burden at all.

"Alas! What a pity! Gao gradually left here with some complicated feelings, and walked directly to the civilian area.

In the case of lack of money, it is also a good option to temporarily settle down in a civilian area.

"Brother Gao!" As soon as he returned, he saw a group of imps looking at him with such bright and hopeful eyes. The little ghost was thin, his clothes were shabby, there were no patches, and his hands were dirty, which looked pitiful, so that Gao gradually couldn't bear to refuse.

"Want to eat?" Gao gradually looked at these, with a shake of his hand, a large paper bag appeared, and the aroma came out of the bag, these little ghosts didn't care about this, their eyes were already attracted by the food in the bag.

"Yes!" The imps replied in unison, swallowing desperately.

"I want to eat! If you want to eat, wash your hands! Wash your face clean, it's white! Clean kids have something to eat! Dirty kids don't have anything to eat! Gao gradually took the food and said with a smile.

"Really?" The imps were skeptical.

"I'll find out if it's really a while, and if it's slow, there's nothing to eat, so don't blame me." Gao gradually said with a smile.

Rumble! These little ghosts scattered in a hurry, and Gao gradually did not leave, just waited here for a short time, and those little ghosts who ran out hurriedly ran over panting.

They were really relieved to see that Gao gradually did not abandon them and run away, and their eyes looked at the paper bag in Gao Jian's hand with joy.

"Hold out your hand and I'll see!" Gao gradually looked at these little ghosts and laughed.

Although I washed my hands and face, it was still not clean, Gao gradually nodded.

"Ok! You wash the cleanest, give you two steamed buns, you wash so-so, give you half, you are stronger than him, give you a ......" Gao gradually used this method to divide the steamed buns.

A group of imps are very puzzled why Gao Jian divides the steamed buns like this, but they have already remembered that the next time they come to see Gao Jian, they will have to wash them cleanly, and some people who wash them cleanly will get more to eat.

Looking at the scattered imps, Gao gradually was in a good mood, he had been here for three days, and on the second day, he had already had an accidental thought, which made him think of how to help these imps at the same time, but also beneficial to himself.

It's relatively simple to subdue these imps, as long as you provide some food - who would have thought that these despised outcasts, called Hanako, would have any effect.

It's just less than a day, Gao gradually gained the trust of some little ghosts, and now on the third day, these little ghosts came to the agreed place to wait for Gao Yan.

After this time, Gao gradually believes that there are more and more Hanako in the neighborhood, and the outcast will trust him.

The next day, these imps came again, and sure enough, more imps were brought, and each of them was washed relatively cleanly, as Gao gradually said—although it was still dirty clothes, dirty hair, and a bad smell, but at least there was a clean place.

"Excellent! The cleanest person who washed this time ate the most! Gao gradually made steamed buns again.

These hungry little ghosts, after getting the steamed buns, gobbled them up, and there were no vegetables, but they still ate very sweet.

"Don't worry if you haven't eaten steamed buns, I want to know something new, who knows tell me, there are steamed buns to eat." Gao gradually said with a smile.

"Really?" The eyes of those later imps lit up.

"Look at them!" Gao gradually speaks with facts, which is more effective than any guarantee.

"I know! I know! One by one, the little ghosts scrambled to tell Gao what they knew.

"Here you come! Good! Steamed buns for you! Next, you say! Gao gradually made a steamed bun, changed the news, and soon knew some things, at least he knew a lot about this piece of things.

A steamed bun for a piece of news made him feel that it was worth it, it was much more cost-effective than going to other places to inquire, and it was also a lot less troublesome.

Those little ghosts feel that a funny thing can be exchanged for a steamed bun, it feels that it is too easy, they know a lot of things, these worthless things can be exchanged for life-saving food, this is too cost-effective......

The little ghosts are looking forward to coming, and they leave satisfied, and at the same time hope that Gao gradually will do this every day in the future, and they will not have to worry about hungry food.

Gao gradually watched these little ghosts leave, and replied with satisfaction - this is the house he bought here, and it is his temporary home.

Whether it is to eat steamed buns for these little ghosts, or to let them do hygiene, and exchange news for food, they are all preparing for the next step of co-opting them. The plan is very successful, he can continue to do it, and when the time comes, he will have his own intelligence team in the imperial capital.

The imperial capital is so large and the flow of information is slow, and in this case, it is very important to have an intelligence organization all the time.

These imps don't just provide intelligence, they can also develop and become people they can trust to use when it matters most.

"However, I didn't expect the competition in this imperial capital to be so cruel, even if you ask for food, you have to fight for territory." Immediately, Gao gradually thought of one of the things that these little ghosts had said before leaving, they still had controllers.

Those who control them want to beg through them, hand over the money they earn, or simply train them to be thieves to commit theft - if they are caught, they will have to cut off their fingers, and if they are more cruel, they will have to cut off one of their hands.

These imps are all shrewd imps, and they don't want to be controlled, but life is not good, maybe they will be controlled if they are unlucky that day.

"Well, I'm going to take these guys tonight!" Gao gradually thought that the fate of some people had already been decided.

In this world, when the law cannot be restrained, power and power are becoming more and more unscrupulous, and gradually along the way, they are more and more accustomed to the convenience brought by their own power.

At night, Gao gradually walked in the slums, at this time there were no patrols in the slums, but such a place was even more unpeaceful, and along the way, he encountered a lot of thugs fighting for territory.

They fight here with knives, clubs, axes and the like, just for a little control.

At this time, those poor people who live here can hide in their homes, and it is not surprising that if they walk on the streets at this time, they will be hacked to death by those who are fighting for territory.

Of course, it is not necessarily safe at home, and the saying 'If you sit at home, disaster will come from heaven' is constantly confirmed here, even at home is not necessarily safe.

If you are lucky, these people's homes will just be destroyed, and people will be fine, and if you are unlucky, these people's homes will be broken, people will die, and their homes will be ruined.
