Chapter 12: Conspiracy
Although there is no day or night in the Underworld, rest and sleep are necessary for every living being, and the schedule is consistent with that of the surface. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
There were hardly any pedestrians in the desolate streets, and there was a deathly silence all around, and in the faint light of the light, the figure of Darius pulled a vague shadow on the ground, and no one would come to interrogate him, because there was no such thing as a sheriff.
He cautiously watched his surroundings, trying not to appear in an easily spotted place, moving from one shadow to another.
The residence of the female leader, known as Lady Wendy, was easy to find, after all, the bell tower was so striking that it could easily be found anywhere in town.
According to the prostitute, there were only two maids and a male guard in her residence, and although she didn't know what level the male guard was, Darius didn't think it was much better.
Even if it was in the past, it wasn't too difficult for him to do this kind of thing, not to mention that Darius's strength was no longer what it used to be.
His fingers gripped the gap in the masonry, and his strong grip made him climb up the wall like a gecko, and slowly climbed to the wooden window, Darius put his ear to the wall and listened for a while, but he didn't hear anything, so he opened the window and quickly climbed in.
It's been a long time since I've done anything like this, and Darius secretly thought that the thieves in the Reynolds Brotherhood didn't necessarily have the skills he has now.
Darius specifically told the innkeeper to find an experienced veteran, that is, Launey. The innkeeper thinks it's normal, after all, the veteran has a lot of experience in the industry and knows a lot of tricks, but Darius is certainly not the picture, his biggest purpose is to find someone who is familiar with this place.
Lonnie has come here more times to pay the commission, and is naturally familiar with the layout of the house, this two-story house has many rooms, but the maid and the guard live in the rooms on the first floor, and the owner, that is, Mrs. Wendy, she lives in the largest room on the second floor.
Now the prostitutes were busy in the inns and huts of the town, and it was not until after five o'clock in the morning that someone would slowly come and pay their commissions, so Mrs. Wendy should be resting in her room now.
The room Darius was in was supposed to be a guest room, and he crept to the door, opened a gap in the door, and after making sure that there was no one outside, he walked out softly.
When Darius walked, he didn't want to make a sound, and those who were lower than him would not notice, thanks to the training he received in the Legion, in order to ambush the lizardmen, every soldier who participated in the battle had to fully master the skills of concealment and concealment, although it was not as good as a professional thief, but it was not something that ordinary people could see.
Unless there is magic detection, but to put it mildly, Wendy is just a prostitute after all, how can she be rich enough to install a magic detection device in her home.
With a white wool carpet in the doorway and two angelic sconces beside the red carved wooden door, Darius easily found Lady Wendy's bedroom, and as he was ready to move, the sound of conversation from inside made him decide to pause his movements.
"Igor Mondstadt must die!"
"This bastard, he even proposed to Edmonton to let Dennis take my place temporarily, on the grounds that I may not be able to control the scene during the time I was injured, damn it, if he really let him succeed, after I am injured, how can I let Dennis give up his position."
Even though there was a door, Darius's keen hearing could still hear what they were saying. It was clearly a man's voice, and he could even imagine the man gritting his teeth.
Then another woman's voice came to his ears, which should be Mrs. Wendy in Launey's mouth.
"Harold, I don't want to see this guy again, but after all, he is being favored by Edmonton, not to mention that he has someone around him to protect him at all times, and it is not easy to kill him secretly."
As soon as Darius heard these names, he immediately understood that Edmonton was one of the current leaders of the "Freedom Defenders", Igor and Harold, who were the leaders below, and it seemed that these people were plotting to get rid of each other because of their entanglement of interests.
This kind of thing is not uncommon in Noxus, whether it is a gangster or an army, I haven't heard of any organization that can completely eliminate infighting, but their infighting has nothing to do with Darius, what makes him happy is that he only wanted to deal with one, but he didn't expect it to come with a giveaway.
This guy named Harold sounds like he is injured, and according to Lonnie, this person is the leader of the "Freedom Guards" in charge of the casino business.
"No, no, no, I didn't say let's do it, in fact there are a lot of people who want to get rid of Igor Mondstadt, you know, since he got those blue gadgets from those Zauns, the forces in the lower city have been very unhappy with us."
"What, do you already have a plan?" Wendy's uncontrollable exclamations were heard from the room.
"Of course, why would I risk coming to you, dear Wendy, those Zaun people have already offended all the drug dealers in the lower city, but they have no evidence, and Igor Mondstadt is secretive, so no killer came to the door, but I have received the news that those Zaun people are not hiding in the lower city, they are on the surface, and in three days, Igor Mondstadt will disguise himself and go up to get the goods."
"Then what did you come to me for? I've got women all over my hands, and I don't have the power to get rid of him. ”
"Okay, Wendy, we've known each other for almost ten years, and others don't know your details, don't I know yet? We were already in the same boat when we killed El Alamein together, and I know that several of your little treasures are spies from other forces, even if it's you, you don't just take our share of the money, right? I just need you to get this news out, and when the time comes, someone will naturally kill him. ”
For a while, the words "killing people with a knife" and "driving wolves" came to his mind, but he didn't expect that this seemingly ordinary Wendy was actually a multi-agent with a special identity.
"Well, Igor Mondstadt is not only my enemy, although he has no idea about you yet, but we and he will definitely not be the same way, you have to think about this, I must leave."
The sound of footsteps came from far and near, and the man in the room pushed the door open, and as he stepped his leg out of the room, the black sword made a deadly trajectory like a hunting viper, and stabbed him in the throat.
