Hassan looked directly at Rayson, his face clear of fear, as if he were dead.

Thinking of Roman's previous advice, Rayson couldn't figure it out, he didn't think Hassan would be a madman who lost his mind, and naturally he didn't think it was just a simple cruel talk.

The bowstring in Rayson's hand loosened slightly, and he looked Hassan up and down: "I'm curious, what gives you this confidence?" ”

Hassan scoffed: "Who do you think this mine belongs to?" ”

Rayson didn't say anything, leaving Hassan to continue.

"Behind this mine are the Silver Crusaders, and I'm just helping to take care of things."

"So, you think that if you die, the Crusaders will help you get revenge?" Rayson shrugged, "I'm sure they'll easily find a replacement for you." ”

"Hehe......" Hassan sneered: "I'm afraid, no." ”

"A stupid person like you won't understand, in your eyes, am I just a gangster leader with a gang of people bullying the market? Took shit luck to manage this mine? ”

"Isn't it?" Rayson said dismissively.

"Heh, I'm not afraid to tell you honestly, there is more than one mine around Sand City, and in the past, the managers of each mine were different. But now, it's all in my hands! Do you think a simple gangster boss can do that? Hassan raised his chin and said proudly: "Because only I can find enough labor to ensure the operation of the mines, so that these mines can play their due value!" ”

Hassan said this word by word, as if to publicize his exploits. Rayson sneered, "Do you mean to kidnap the homeless people on the street and force them to work?" Anyone can do this! ”

"So, you're an idiot! Do you think it's just that simple? Hassan squinted at Rayson: "My subordinates used to be vagrants, and I gave them food and guns!" Give them work! Every single one of them is loyal to me! Only these people know where to go to catch homeless people who can work! ”

Hearing this, Rayson immediately remembered the thug he had caught outside Hassan's base camp not long ago, he was indeed very loyal, and to Rayson's surprise, the knife was about to stab him in the eye, and he still refused to explain Hassan's whereabouts.

"But that's not enough. No matter how many people I have, I can't keep up with everyone, and you know how to make sure that these homeless people work well and don't escape? ”

This happened to be what Rayson was very curious about, there was no fence around the mine, and if those homeless people wanted to escape, if not all of them could escape, at least some of them could leave, but when they sneaked in just now, most of the homeless people were working honestly, and none of them resisted or wanted to escape.

"Listen up."

Hassan's smile narrowed and became meaningful: "As long as we can continue to ensure that they will not starve to death, but they will not be able to eat enough." ”

"The last person in charge of the mine was stabbed to death by a couple of passers-by with knives made of cans after getting drunk on Third Street. Because he's so greedy! I want someone to work in the mine, but I don't want to pay anything! He and his men tied every homeless person they saw directly on the street to their cars, forced them to work in the mines, and gave them only a pitiful little to eat, four or five people could not get a can, and many of them were either starving to death or dying of exhaustion! ”

"If he does this, there will be a riot at the end of the mine every three days, and the homeless people in the mine will not work hard, and the production capacity will be low! The homeless people who weren't caught outside hated him to the bone! I want to kill him at any time! As it turned out, he also underestimated these lowest bugs, and he was really killed! ”

"Actually, everyone who managed a mine before me was like that! Each of them wants to rely on strong means to force the insects to work for themselves unconditionally, and if they feel that they have a gun in their hands, these insects will not dare to resist! So there is no one person who can make the mine produce well. ”

"But I'm different, I can control my greed, I give these bugs the power to choose, as long as the bugs do their job, make sure they don't starve! But they also don't have enough to eat, so they have to keep working for me! Then, the production of the mine is also guaranteed! ”

"Can you control your greed?" Rayson disagreed: "As far as I know, you give people who come to work in the mine two cans a day, but your subordinates themselves are black, and not many people volunteer to work here." ”

"Do you think that what my subordinates are doing, I, the boss, will not know?" Hassan again expressed disdain: "I started early on and gave two cans to the people who came to work in the mines. That's a lot of money in Sand City! ”

"However, I don't just have the work of the mines, but also clean up the garbage, bury the corpses, who do you think is keeping the streets of Sand City clean? Without me, the streets would have been full of starving and sick people! It's relatively easy, but there's only one can, but there's a bunch of bugs coming to grab it every day! No one wants to work a little harder, but pay more! That's why no one is working in the mines! Only those few old men who can't grab easy jobs are willing to come to work, this can't change the status quo of the mine, is there any difference between giving them one can or two cans? ”

"If it's normal, I don't care. But now my superiors, the crusaders, are urging me to deliver! I don't have a choice, so these bugs don't deserve a choice! I have to get them to work in the mines! They may be dissatisfied, but as long as they don't starve to death, they will still work hard and won't have too many opinions! You can go and ask, I eat them two meals a day! What mercy this is! ”

As Hassan said, even if these homeless people are taken captively to work, even if they don't have enough to eat, as long as they can guarantee that they won't starve to death, they will still work obediently. This is indeed a kind of mercy, after all, the world is broken, human life is as thin as paper, people are starving to death every day, and the mine at least gives them a way to live.

Rayson frowned and looked Hassan up and down again: "So, this is your confidence to save your life?" ”

Hassan and Rayson looked at each other with a sinister gaze: "I said, you want to kill me, and I'm welcome!" But as long as I die, the production of the mine will definitely be greatly reduced, and my men will no longer keep an eye on those bugs, and there will be no one left! After the first few mine owners, now those bugs know to find a place to hide, and without my men to catch them, it is basically impossible for the mine to recover its current productivity! ”

"Whether the Crusaders want to find new people to take over the mines or to capture the vagrants who come to work, they need my men, and if they want to recruit my men, the Crusaders will definitely avenge me first! For the past two days, all my men know what I want to do! Who I want to die! If I'm dead or missing at this time, the Crusaders will easily find you! They are the biggest force in Sand City! There are thousands of people in Sand City, and there are hundreds of power armors! ”

"Do you think Roman's kid's inn will be able to keep you by then?"

Rayson fell silent, he already understood what Hassan meant. If Hassan were alive, his own grievances with him would only be a matter between them; But if Hassan died, the feud would rise between him and the Crusaders. When it comes to mine production, the Silver Crusaders will not sit idly by, and in order to allow Hassan's men to work and thus keep the mine running, the Crusaders will definitely avenge Hassan!

Rayson had seen the loyalty of Hassan's men to him, so he didn't think there was any exaggeration in what Hassan said at this time. Imagine if the Crusaders were really so strong, and there would really be dozens of power armor chasing him, would he still be able to escape? Even if Rayson can escape on his own, will Ashley and the injured Gavin have such good luck?

At that time, Rayson would not dare to bet that Roman's inn would be able to keep them, not to mention that Roman himself was a crusader.

But Hassan had already sent men to attack them twice, putting himself and Ashley and Gavin in danger by letting him go, and it was bound to happen again in the future! Rayson hesitated for a while, and whether to kill Hassan or not seemed to be a good choice.

Hassan looked at Rayson, because of the skull mask, he couldn't see Rayson's face, but Rayson's gaze had already revealed that he was entangled, and Hassan's smile was a little more mocking: "What? Don't dare to do it? So are you ready for your last words? You're going to die at my hands! I promise! ”

Rayson was silent for a moment, and suddenly, raised his bow again. Although there was still no fear on Hassan's face, there was inevitably a slight surprise.

"I have a better idea......"

At the same time, in the abandoned iron factory north of Sand City, several ghouls were gnawing on a female corpse in the factory.

The corpse was Anna, the female ninja who kidnapped Ashley two days ago, and it had begun to decompose, but the ghouls didn't care about it and still feasted on it. Due to the small number of people living in the area, a few ghouls occasionally wander in.

The ghouls were eating happily and did not notice a petite figure behind them.

"Huh, huh?"

A ghoul seemed to notice a strange noise, and as soon as his hideous face turned behind him, a huge gray-black metal slash smashed down on his face! Cut it in two!

That's a giant heavy sword! It's not so much a heavy sword as a heavy, long, flat block of metal! The edges have been polished, but even if it's not sharp, the weight would be enough to kill any surface creature!

And the one who used this heavy sword turned out to be a petite girl! The heavy sword swirled in her hand, dancing vigorously! As soon as a few ghouls got closer, they were immediately cut to the ground!

By the last ghoul, the girl danced her heavy sword right behind her. The ghoul was already approaching, and it seemed too late to drag the heavy sword back, but the girl kicked the sword in a hurry, and the heavy sword drew a semicircle in the air and slashed down again!

The last ghoul was also stabbed in two! The girl will carry the heavy sword on her back, and if she stands up the heavy sword, she will be taller than her.

The girl walked over to the female corpse on the ground, examined it, and pulled out a radio.

"Master~ People have found my sister~ but~"

The girl's voice was skinny, and it was strange to talk like this in a place full of corpses.

A man's voice came over the radio: "Anna is dead, I know." I'm here to show you how she died. ”

The girl crouched down again to inspect it, and quickly replied: "The fatal wound is in the chest, it was stabbed to death." It seems that my sister has met a very powerful person~"

"A fatal stab? If the other party doesn't use a gun, then the skill is inferior. The man across the radio seemed a little disappointed.

"Master, are you finally going to make a move?" The girl seemed a little excited: "When are you coming?" ”

The man on the other end of the radio was silent for a moment before he said, "I've arrived at ......."

……

By the time Rayson returned to the hotel, only Roman was left in the room, sitting on a stool waiting for his return. The bodies on the walls have been disposed of, but Ashley and Gavin are nowhere to be found.

Without waiting for Rayson to ask, Roman took the initiative to say, "Your friend has already come over to operate on the old man." I arranged for them to move to a room at the end of the hallway, where there was no window and it would be safer. ”

Hearing the news, Rayson's heart was relieved.

Roman got up: "Have a drink?" I please. ”

"Why not."

Rayson followed Roman to the basement floor of the hotel, only to find that there was a small bar in the hotel, where many hotel guests were entertained. And after seeing Roman appear, many people who knew him avoided him, and it was obvious that Roman was also a notorious figure.

But Rayson didn't care, and followed Roman to an empty seat in the corner, and sat opposite him. The waiter, who is also Roman's man, consciously poured two glasses of wine and brought them up.

Rayson picked up his glass and sniffed, "Good wine." It's rare to find such a good wine these days. ”

From this taste alone, Raison can be sure that it is definitely not the kind of inferior alcohol product that he has drunk recently, and it is probably a rare wine left over from the old century.

"Hehe, if you like it, who knows if you can drink it tomorrow?" Roman smiled meaningfully, looked at the wine in his glass, and then at Rayson, who was sitting across from him.

"So, tell me, the friend we don't like, is he dead?"
