Chapter 1263: When the wrench is in progress
Looking out the window, Maggs's heart was very calm, and he was very confident that these Imperial warriors would be able to keep him safe.
This is not the first assassination he has encountered, and the assassinations he has suffered during his years in power are too numerous to count, and some have even been forgotten.
Especially in the early years of his reign, the overthrow of the rule of the royal family made him an unforgivable representative in the eyes of many.
It is precisely because of what he has done to the empire that many people have lost the foundation on which they rely for their livelihood and the opportunity to soar.
Why do people always say that the end of a regime is rotten?
In fact, there will not be much change in the standards of behavior in the early and later stages of a regime, and in the early days, the royal family appointed meritocracy, and these palace ministers were also careful to take care of the empire properly.
Everybody has their own job, everybody is restraining their own behavior, restraining their greed, and doing their own thing according to a standard that is not written, so there will be nothing smoky in the early days of the regime.
In the later stages of the regime, it was the same, everyone was doing their own thing, and society was functioning as it was many years ago, but why did people feel angry and disgusted with those in power and those in power at this time?
Even if what they are doing now is similar to what the founding fathers did many years ago, why are people angry?
Because of greed and arrogance, people have gone from fearing the careful use of power to seeing it as a tool that can be manipulated, and once people lose their awe, they become terrible!
At the end of the imperial dynasty, a large number of nobles and merchants relied on the royal family to take advantage of the big tree that could shelter from the wind and rain, and after the fall of the royal family, these people lost the opportunity to continue to obtain unearned gains by various means, and at the same time faced the sharp blade raised by Magus.
At that time, the empire was really short of money, and Magus did investigate and punish a number of illegal nobles and merchants, but this was far from enough.
In order to keep their wealth and the head on their necks, these nobles and merchants embarked on a final madness, unscrupulously hiring hitmen to assassinate Magus.
Whether he was at the palace, walking down the street, or sitting at home, the endless assassinations did make him angry and frightened for a while.
No one is not afraid of death, and Magus is no exception, and he was also afraid of death at that time, until finally he began to get used to this kind of life, and made those people pay the price with more terrible means, people finally realized that the empire had changed dramatically.
At this time, the assassination seemed like a very ordinary thing to him, he did not die, but only suffered a little minor injury, he was thinking more about whether this matter could be used, or whether there would be some uncontrollable changes due to it.
It's like when the news of the car accident of his favorite youngest son reaches his ears, he first thinks of using this matter to make some articles, and then he feels sad and angry about it.
That's what he thinks of now, what to do and what to put an end to.
In the deepest part of his heart, he had some faint uneasiness, and the place that gave rise to these uneasiness was engraved with Durin's name, this young man was treacherous not at all like a young man should be, he was more like an old fellow on the same level as himself.
If it weren't for the occasional youthful appearance, Maggs would have felt that there might indeed be such a thing as an ageless face in this world.
What will Doolin do if he is injured?
If something like this happened before he talked to Doolin, he would never have thought about it so much, but after that conversation, he had already seen Doolin's ambitions, and he began to worry, worried about what Doolin would do.
At the same time, Xiwen, who was examining the assassination weapon he was carrying, placed a brick in a dehumidification thermostatic suitcase worth more than a thousand years, which contained a coin, a wire cable, an empty wine bottle, and a shiny wrench in addition to the bricks.
As a well-deserved Nambo Bay in the field of killers, Xiwen, known as the ultimate silent assassin, is very rigorous and proud of his work, and he never disdains to use guns, bombs, or knives to assassinate, which is not assassination, let alone art.
On the contrary, it is these things that seem to be used only by a repairman that are the real key to unlocking the art of assassination.
He lifted the phone, and a voice on the phone rang through a voice changer.
The voice changer is also something that has become popular in recent times, especially in the underground world, where people have become accustomed to pressing the voice changer against the microphone before speaking to ensure that their voice characteristics are not leaked.
The person on the other end of the phone gave him a task, as long as he completed this task, he would not only get a large bounty, but also help him search for clues about the oracle.
For this task, Siwen thought about it for about ten minutes, and finally took it, because the man said that in addition to this, he would gain the friendship of certain people.
The previous things were not precious to Phothesian, and he didn't care, what really cared about him was those "friendships".
He looked at his handbag, took the wrench that had been maintained to the sparkle in his arms, grabbed a handful of coins, closed the suitcase, turned and pushed the door open.
About twenty minutes later, he appeared in the courtyard of the Seliville No. 1 Public Hospital in a changed outfit, dressed in the professional attire of a doctor, holding a medical record in his hand and a stethoscope around his neck.
He kept his head down, holding a pen in the other hand, writing and drawing on the medical record, and someone on the road saw him and took the initiative to get out of the way.
Doctors are a respectable profession no matter where they are, and of course this means that when they save people, when they take out the payment slip, these people are absolutely disgusting.
After the first check, Phothesivan stepped through the hospital door, glancing slightly sideways at the hall of several seemingly waiting patients, all of whom were intelligence agents from the Empire.
He followed the route he remembered to the unguarded basement, then called the elevator, and at the same time, opened the ventilation window in the basement, retrieved the wrench that was placed in the grass outside the window, and stuffed it into his arms.
A moment later, with a ding, the elevator door opened, and the three leaders outside the door glanced at the empty elevator compartment and withdrew their gaze with some strange surprises.
In the elevator shaft that they hadn't noticed, Phothesiwen had already burrowed into the ventilation tunnel, and slowly crawled towards the reserved place.
