Chapter 865: The Unspoken Rules of the Underground World

Eating a slightly spicy lamb burrito, Henry silently observed Vahid's every move, and soon he found that this vicious-looking restaurant owner was definitely a ruthless character before, especially the thumb of his right hand was always subconsciously bent and forced, which looked like a habit left over from holding a dagger or a short sword for a long time.

According to Robert, only the real killer would press his thumb to the side of the dagger, so that the angle of the stab could be adjusted at any time to achieve a lethal effect.

As for the twin brothers, they are obviously also professionally trained, not only are their bodies covered with well-proportioned muscles, but they are also accustomed to using only one hand when eating, and the other hand is carefully placed under the table, as long as there is an emergency, they can lift the table at any time to block in front of them.

"Mr. Wahid, if it's convenient, can you tell me what you were mainly responsible for in the Scorpion Guild before?" Henry asked tentatively as he swallowed the food in his mouth.

"Hahahaha! It's not inconvenient, and most of the people in the area know what I've done before. Wahid touched the bushy beard on his chin and laughed. It can be said that everything related to the gang has been done. Grabbing turf, teaching dishonest thugs, managing pickpockets and rogue warblers, running underground casinos, and of course, killing people when necessary. Why do you ask this? Don't you really want to run a guild? ”

Henry smiled and spread his hands: "Why not?" I'm interested in the underground forces in Port Carlin, and I'm planning to do something here. As you've seen, the so-called Phantom Guild is not vulnerable at all, and I'm looking for an opportunity to take out their leader. Then take it for yourself. And you can get rid of the awkward status of a restaurateur and chef. I'm sure you've been a chef for so long, and you're eager to get back on the street. ”

After hearing this, Wahid's face changed slightly, and he immediately warned sternly: "Don't do this!" While I can tell you're a capable young man, and you're not kidding, keep in mind that that's not how the guilds in Port Carlin are played. Although it may seem chaotic on the surface, behind the scenes there is a set of rules that everyone is following. And those unruly guys, no matter how strong they were at the beginning, all died in the end. ”

"Oh? Do you mean that there is a large invisible hand controlling the underground forces throughout Port Carlin? Henry leaned forward slightly, his eyes shining.

Obviously, there is only one organization in the entire Kalinsan region that can do this, and that is the Talisman Society!

He didn't expect the clues to come so quickly and so suddenly, and it took almost no effort to catch the little tails of these undead spellcasters, as long as he touched them down, sooner or later he would be able to find out more than one master of the talismans, after all, the gang has always been the tentacles of the intelligence network, and the other party will definitely attach great importance to it.

Wahid knew it when he saw Henry's slightly excited expression. The other party didn't take what he just said as the same thing at all, so he sighed helplessly: "Hey...... It seems that you have not yet understood the strict zhòng nature of this matter. Do you know why the Scorpion Society disbanded? Just because of one person! A letter! Our ambitious boss slit his own throat with a dagger! That weird scene makes my scalp tingle when I think about it now! ”

"Slit your own throat with a dagger? It's a very creative way to die. The corners of Henry's mouth turned up. With a playful smile, he nodded to the restaurateur. "I know what you mean, but if there's a big guy behind it, it's perfectly in line with the rules. Right? ”

The strange death of the leader of the Scorpion Society was very similar to what happened to Ali, and he could barely guess that it must be the work of the Talisman Society, so he decided to follow the so-called rules first, at least not to act rashly until he found the master of the rune.

"Of course, the big guys have some privileges, but it depends on how much energy the person standing behind you has."

Seeing that the young man in front of him did not intend to be brutal, Vahid finally breathed a sigh of relief and began to test Henry's family. Although he no longer wanted to swallow his anger and run this black restaurant with a small profit, he would never agree to the other party's solicitation with just a few words.

Just as Henry was about to say something, a cacophony suddenly came from outside, followed by a masked thief rushing in.

However, he didn't mean to do anything, but bowed very respectfully: "Your Excellency Hamid asked me to bring you a message, he has decided to strike first, this letter contains the information you need." ”

"Thank you, help me tell His Excellency Hamid, before it gets dark today, he will know where the fleeing gladiators are, and of course the names of the traitors." After saying that, Henry took the letter from the thief, and then made a gesture of please. He had long expected that the ruthless old man would never sit still, and it was inevitable that he would choose to take the initiative.

"Rest assured, I will convey this sentence word for word." The masked thief bowed again, turned and ran out in a puff of smoke.

Shaking the letter in his hand, Henry smiled and said to Wahid: "Look, this is my backstage, Hamid, the contractor of the East End Arena, I believe his energy must be not small." ”

"Damn! You're meddling in the feud between the two big arenas?! ”

As a former guild leader, Wahid had a channel of information that no one else knew, so he was so surprised because he knew very well what the gladiator riots had been going on in the recent uproar, and he also knew what was going on when he was involved. He didn't understand where the young man in front of him had the audacity to take on such a commission.

"Don't worry, it's a small hassle, it will be fixed before dawn tomorrow. You can think about it first, and I'll have to get to work. Also, the lamb burritos you made tasted quite good, but it was a bit of a shame that such a superb knife skill was used to cut the lamb. After saying that, Henry stood up and waved to the girl, then patted Ares, who was eating hard, and walked towards the door without looking back.

He knew that before solving Hamid's troubles, Wahid would not take his refuge lightly, this middle-aged man who looked like a thug had a delicate and calm heart, otherwise he would have been killed by the enemy a long time ago, and it was precisely because of this that he was definitely the best candidate to manage the guild.

After dropping a few gold coins in a hurry, Fadini trotted up with the money bag and followed, and Ares stuffed her mouth with lamb burritos, pouting and twisting her big ass around.

Seeing the two of them disappear at the end of the street, Ali plucked up the courage to ask her father, "Daddy! Why don't you agree to come down? The guy just now didn't look good, and he wasn't stingy either. Just look at the little wildcat now, he must be very good to his men. Kill Balk's sissy who gets on top by slapping her ass, and then we'll be the big guys in the new guild, and I've had enough of swallowing my anger! ”

"That's right! Dad! The thought of Omir's bastard flaunting his might made me angry. Ai Kailam also stood up to help.

Looking at the menacing appearance of the two sons, Wahid patted his chest full of black hair and laughed: "Hahahaha! You two little cubs have really hot tempers, just like when I was younger. Well, I promise you, if that guy named Bois can really solve the East Side Arena troubles, I'll worship him as the boss and kill Balk, the sissy who slaps his ass. ”

"Hooray! Finally, I don't have to serve dishes anymore! ”

"Hey, hey! If I become the leader, the first thing I will do is find a few big men and take turns to "serve" Omir. ”

The twin brothers shouted and punched each other, and happily went into the kitchen to help. For teenagers of their age, they are always full of dreams and passions, unwilling to be ordinary, eager to make a difference, and gain the respect or fear of others.

"It's really uneasy, I hope the little wild cat didn't look away this time......" Wahid picked up his pipe and sniffed the residual tobacco, muttering to himself.

Due to the loss of the high income of the gang leader, he could no longer afford to buy expensive tobacco, so he could only take it out and smell it to satisfy his hunger.

Henry was right, he missed the days when he roamed the streets, the feeling of slitting the throats of his enemies with a sharp blade, and even more so the days when he could have whatever he wanted......

At the same time, Fatini, who was walking down the street in the scorching sun, complained listlessly: "I say, dear young master, how long will this aimless walking go on?" If you don't stop to rest for a while, your beautiful maid will faint soon! ”

"Maid?"

Henry glanced at the girl's appearance of sticking out her tongue and fanning desperately, and immediately laughed and teased: "Aha! I can't believe you know you're a maid. It's incredible! Did you know that a good maid will not behave rudely under any circumstances, and she cannot complain loudly, and completely obey her master's orders? Excuse me, little sister (sister), which of these things have you done? ”

"Damn! Can't you just shut up and listen to me honestly? Haven't you northern aristocrats always flaunted your gentlemanly demeanor and were gentle and considerate to women? Fadini rolled her eyes and fought back without showing any weakness.

Although she knows very well that she will definitely not be able to get any bargain in the end, she doesn't know why, she just can't control her tongue.

"I'm sorry, but I don't really like to hear people complain. In addition, gentlemanly demeanor is aimed at suave ladies, not spicy little wild cats like you. Okay, bear with me, and I'll take you to a cool place when I've read the contents of this letter. With that, Henry touched the girl's hair.

In fact, all Hamid sent was a list of people and forces who might be involved in the matter, including a few of the most suspicious ones marked in red ink, the most obvious being a gang of nezumi hidden in the sewers, led by Banta, a sinister and cunning villain, who was said to be a druid.

Those big rats in the East End Arena are most likely manipulated by this guy. Of course, it is also possible that he raised it...... (To be continued......)
