Chapter 0062: The Old Thief's Friends
Pali 94 Province, Arem.
This is a new goblin community created by the government, and the foreign goblin population is only about 100 people, and it has little influence in terms of territory or influence. As a community shaman, Ahmed came from the Central Asian cemetery country as a refugee. The Gauls treated him well, giving him food, shelter and money, and sending many goblins from other places for him to choose women to be his wife.
Ahmet spent his life as a poor shepherd in the cemetery country, and then went to Gaul to become a shaman. He doesn't have to do anything every day, he just needs to keep praying, and his three wives will do everything. He was really grateful to the Gauls, willing to be a moderate, and did his best to do a good job as a shaman and spread goblin culture.
Marrying the eldest daughter of the Ramadan family was an impromptu idea of Ahmed.
Speaking of fifteen-year-old Fatini, she was a charming little girl like a jewel. Compared to Ahmed's three sluggish wives, she was smart, pretty, lively, and of good shape, with few faults except for her age. As for the fact that she had attended a Gaul school and had been polluted by her mind, it was not a big deal, and a few days with a whip would cure it.
The reason why he wanted to hold this wedding was that Ahmed was a little unhappy in his heart. The other day the Gallic president died suddenly, the parliament was finished, and the whole country was in a state of emergency.
The old shepherd did not understand any major matters of state, and he felt that the Gallic officials and policemen, who had been demanding all these days, had suddenly turned ugly, spoke politely, and wanted to search his community.
No matter what the Gallic Virgins think, in the event of a terrorist attack, the powerful department still lists the goblins as the number one suspect. The real agency of violence was operational, and in a matter of days, thousands of suspects were apprehended from various goblin communities, thousands were reprimanded, and hundreds of thousands were targeted.
During his years in Gaul, Ahmed was too comfortable to adapt to this sudden change. When Ramadan came to him, he couldn't read the French on his laptop, so he just said a few perfunctory words, and suddenly it occurred to him that he could marry Ramadan's eldest daughter - don't the Gauls mourn the whole country? I'm going to have a wedding to celebrate, and I'm going to do it.
This sudden decision on the wedding directly drove Fadini to a corner, and she and her sister Makita were both children, precocious and flustered. The two of them rushed to the hospital in a hurry, and after cutting off the normal way to seek help from the outside world, they could only turn to the D-class killer on the dark web.
After receiving this commission, Zhou Qingfeng did not take action immediately. He first found the address of Arem on the map, and slowly did some intelligence research - in fact, he called the old thief to ask about the situation, after all, he was really unfamiliar with Pear.
Mr. Dmitry has been retired from the rivers and lakes for more than ten years, and he has no idea what the current underground world is like. But since Zhou Qingfeng appeared, he felt that his peaceful retirement life was a little more colorful, and someone needed him again, and there was something to do. The old thief was very pleased with this.
"Two poor girls looking for help? One of them was only twelve years old. God, we can't stand idly by and watch this. β
"Wait, I mean their father probably knows Howard's whereabouts. I'd like to ask if there's anything special about the goblins in Arem's place? β
"Victor, you don't have to worry. I'd love to do my part. It's late at night, but I'll be right there. You can call me if you have something like this in the future, no matter what time it is. β
"Hey, old thief. When I asked you for help at the garage before, you didn't have that attitude. β
"I didn't know you before. But now I think you're a good boy. Warm-hearted, very sense of justice, although the means are a little rougher, a little more brutal, but this just makes up for the defect of my soft heart. Don't worry, I'll be right away. God, I feel alive again, twenty years younger. β
"Hell, that's not what I meant. Besides, it's a late-night curfew, and the streets are full of military police, so you can't get through at all. β
"Oh...... that's right. We'll see you at dawn. I'm going to make a few calls and help you ask about the situation. β
hung up the phone, Zhou Qingfeng was inexplicable, but the old thief was full of energy and vitality. He got up in his pajamas, took out a booklet from the bedside cabinet, flipped through a few pages, found a series of numbers, and began dialing.
The first phone number was completely unreachable, and the old thief had to consult the telecommunications department in Pali late at night, and the answer was 'the head of the household has died, and the house number has been cancelled'.
"Oh, hell, I knew that few of my old friends were still alive." The old thief was slightly frustrated and continued to dial the second number. This time, someone answered the phone, but when they reported their names, they said, 'Grandpa died of cancer three years ago.'"
The third number was dialed, and the person who answered the phone turned out to be a nursing home. The old thief held the phone and asked with emotion: "This number still belongs to a man named James. Dutt's people? β
The person answering the phone sounded like a nurse, "Mr. Dutt? He was already asleep. β
"So he's still alive? That's great. How's the old guy doing now? β
"Well...... Mr. Dutt is paralyzed and confined to a wheelchair during the day. He is in good spirits, can read books, go out for activities, and has no major problems with his diet. However, he has a bad personality and is too stubborn, often arguing with other people in the nursing home. Are you his relative? β
"No, I'm his friend. Can you help me wake him up? Let's just say that an old opponent misses him. β
The nurse was silent for a while, but agreed to the request. After a while, an old hoarse voice came out of the phone, "Hey, this number is rarely dialed anymore, and even my grandson ignores me." You'd better make it clear who you are? β
"James, I'm Dmitryu."
"Who?"
"It's someone you spent ten years without being able to get to jail."
Ah...... the volume on the phone suddenly increased, "Demi, it's you old thief." Who said I didn't send you to jail? Most of your sentence in prison is due to me. Wait, aren't you dead? Bastard, you actually cheated to death. Do you want to come out and steal again? You wait, I'll send you to jail again. β
Hahaha......
The old thief smiled happily.
"James, don't be angry. I'm actually here to ask you for help. There was a case, two poor little girls. But considering you're paralyzed in a nursing home, I feel ......"
"What? You're asking me for help? I can handle cases even if I am in a wheelchair. Tell me, what's wrong? You old thief can actually do difficult things, I must see it. β
The phone didn't last long, and James, who lives in a nursing home. Mr. Dutt was clamoring to be discharged, choking a group of nurses in the middle of the night. The old thief continued to dial the fourth number, and when connected, he shouted 'Pamela'. The other party replied quickly, just said, 'You made a mistake', and hung up.
The old thief put down the phone with a smile, and after waiting for a few minutes, a number called back. He picked up the phone and answered it, and an older woman's voice came out, "Mark. Prosec. Dmitryu, I knew you old ghost wasn't dead. What are you calling me for? Whose jewelry are you trying to steal? You're in your seventies, can you not be so naΓ―ve? β
Hahaha...... The old thief laughed.
"My dear, I'm really glad to hear you. Please forgive me for calling you late at night. β
"To be direct, I don't want to listen to your nonsense. I'm hiding in the bathroom. My husband was just woken up by your phone call. β
"You're married?"
"Of course. On my sixtieth birthday, it dawned on me that I might be able to have a marriage too. It just so happened that a nice guy fell in love with me, so I got married. Now I'm very happy, traveling all over the world. I even learned to design fashion and my husband helped me build a brand. β
"This really makes me sad, I also pursued you back then, but you have not responded."
"Forget it, this can only deceive children, I don't believe it. Tell me what are you looking for me to do? β
"I thought your later life was just as boring as I was, so I wanted to ask you to do something. But now it seems ......"
"Are you going to kill someone? Say, who is the target? I'll take you for free. I'm a little fed up with spending time with those so-called artists. Those guys are either gay or, and I'm just an outlier in it. Although my physical strength is not as good as before, I believe that my skills are still top-notch. β
"No, it's not murder. It's a small task. There are two poor girls who need help and may need the help of your vast experience. After all, when it comes to long-range surveillance, I really can't find anyone stronger than you. So ......"
"Needless to say, I'm in. Give me the address, and I'll take a private jet right over. β
I contacted a friend I hadn't seen for many years, and the old thief was in a good mood. He continued to call the numbers in the booklet, some of the numbers were unreachable, some of the numbers were dead, some of the friends were terminally ill, but there were still people who were happy to come and help after answering the phoneβalthough it was only a small thing, but the old ones felt refreshed, as if they had returned to their youth.
At noon the next day, Zhou Qingfeng waited for the old thief and his friends in the robbed killer's apartment.
"This is James. Mr. Dutt. β
A gray-haired old man sat in an electric wheelchair and looked at Zhou Qingfeng with a frown. He had a serious face, a rigid expression, and a hooked nose common to Gauls. After glancing, the old gentleman said coldly, "This kid has a good physique. I could read a rule-breaker in his body language. He must have committed some big crimes, right? β
Zhou Qingfeng couldn't figure out the situation, so he could only ask the old thief: "Who is this person?" β
"James. Dutte, the former Gallic bureaucratic Ministry of the Interior, was responsible for urban policing and serious crime investigations. He was already in the rank of deputy minister before his retirement, was an authority of the Gallic police, and was an honorary figure who could receive a special pension. The old thief was in charge of the introduction, "The officials in the government respect him very much." β
He's an old housekeeping chief.
Zhou Qingfeng was still stunned.
After listening to the introduction, Mr. Dutt said angrily: "Don't mention those bureaucratic idiots to me, they are so embarrassed." Every day I read the newspaper, I was disgusted by the stupidity they did. If I hadn't retired, I'd have all of them in jail or hanged. β
The second old man who appeared was lame with one leg, a few fingers were missing, and his face was vicissitudes, and he was very depressed. He took the initiative to shake hands with Zhou Qingfeng and introduced himself: "My name is Tacini, a former Gallic gendarmerie intervention brigade, who has just come out of a military prison.
I can't do any heavy work, and it's hard to drive. But if you need something to blast, just look for me. By the way, I'm not free to join. I was deprived of my pension and had a lot of debt to deal with, but I had a family to support. So my weekly salary is 800 euros, and I have to pay it in advance for four weeks. β
After the old man Tacini finished speaking, he stretched out his hand and stared directly at Zhou Qingfeng. The old thief stood aside and shrugged, "Victor, this is my friend. I haven't seen him for many years, and his condition is not good, and I don't think I can let him continue to suffer. Considering that you may need some seasoned veterans, ....... Do you have cash in your safe? β
Zhou Qingfeng was stupid, and when he saw someone stretching out his hand, he first spent a few thousand euros in cash. The old man named Tasini took the money, turned around and left, and said, 'I'll go and get ready, I'll see you tomorrow.'"
It's gone.
The last one to appear was a woman, who was not too young, but she was dressed in a radiant manner. Even if the hair is gray and the skin is wrinkled, it is still a fashion brand, and the aura is quite big. She walked into the living room as if no one was around, glanced at the old thief and the old policeman in the wheelchair, and looked at Zhou Qingfeng after saying hello a few times.
"Sorry, due to the weather, my private jet was delayed for a few hours." The white-haired old lady took off her gloves and shook hands with the stupid Zhou Qingfeng, "Child, you are Victor?" My name is Pamela. You're in good shape, but I have to say your clothes are really bad. Isn't there anyone who teaches you how to dress? β
Zhou Qingfeng was speechless.....
"What the hell are you doing, old thief?"
"Shall I find some friends to help you?"
"You see you're idle and panicked, and you're here to make trouble."
