Chapter 225: Thoughts on Gangs

Previous Chapter

By the time Al woke up, it was already the third day of the next day, and the hangover headache made him not come back to his senses for a long time, and he was in a trance for a while before he remembered what happened last night.

"Quinna bastard. He muttered and grumbled, and when he saw Sasha, he realized what had happened in the middle of the night.

"In fact, the steward of the restaurant saw that no one came out of the box, and there was no movement for a long time, so he had to open the box only to find that you and Mr. Quinn were drunk and unconscious. After that, they sent you to the comptoir, and I guess the same is true for Mr. Quinn. Sasha said truthfully.

Al was relieved, Guanyunlou's business was so big, there must not be a mistake in this kind of thing. Thinking of this, he missed the old butler and Freeman again, and if they were there, he would be much more relieved.

Al thought for a moment and commanded, "Get little Peter, I've got something to look for him." ”

After meeting Little Peter, Al has a deeper understanding of the current competition for the underground world of Radiant City.

"You mean some really strong gangs popping up out of nowhere, don't you?" Al asked.

"Exactly, such as the Wolves you mentioned earlier, as far as I know, there are also the Bears, the Tigers, and so on. These gangs had never been heard of before, and since the National Police Agency cracked down, they have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain. Little Peter replied.

Then he said with some indignation: "It's okay for these gangs to fight for territory, but they completely ignore the rules, act unscrupulously and domineeringly, and don't leave a way for others to survive at all." As long as they fancy something or occupy any territory, they are not allowed to be contaminated by any other gang, and they are not even allowed to do it. ”

"If they have the ability to eat them all, forget it, but there are not so many of them, and they still occupy these ways to make money, not to occupy the pit and not, what they do is harmful to others and not to themselves, and now the people on the road are complaining, and many people can't live." ”

"Oh, is there more porridge and less monks? Al said musefully.

"Master Al, what do you mean by more porridge and less monks?", little Peter asked inexplicably, and he repeated it again, the pronunciation was really strange. He's learning now, but he's never heard the word before.

This means that there is a big pot of porridge, but there are very few beggars who drink it. Al smiled dumbly, although he has been in this world for a long time, there are always some verbal fetishes and words that cannot be changed, just like those deeply buried memories, engraved in his heart, and always pop up from time to time to remind himself

You, where are you from.

"I see. Little Peter suddenly realized, "Isn't what you said, these people don't have enough manpower, and they don't want to share some profits with everyone, but these gangs seem to be good, and they never recruit people." It's really incomprehensible, how can there be enough manpower if you don't recruit people, and if you don't have enough manpower, can you still cover the sky with one hand in Shenghui City? Even if you can fight again, you can't set off any big storms. Little Peter shook his head like a little adult, obviously he was very optimistic about the future of these gangs.

"What are you doing, I thought it was the church choosing a priest, requiring good conduct, familiarity with the holy scriptures, and no bad records, what kind of gang is this? Little Peter muttered.

"So they're not a gang. Al followed his words.

"Isn't it a gang, aren't they fighting to the death just to fight for those territories?"

"yes, what are they for?", Al thought along these lines, why didn't they recruit men? This was obviously not good for the development of the gang, and a few people alone would not be able to manage and occupy the underworld of Radiant City, the capital of Saint-Teresa.

The first reason that came to mind was to maintain the "purity" of the team, that is, what secrets these gangs had that could not be known to outsiders. Thinking of the soldiers of the "Wolf Gang" I saw before, the "Tiger Gang", "Bear Gang" and other related names, these gangs can also be guessed that they come from the same army, and they secretly gathered in Shenghui City, it must be to perform some important mission, and it makes sense that they are unwilling to let outsiders know.

The second point is why do they disguise themselves as gangs to fight for these territories? The first thing that comes to mind is for money, if they occupy the entire underground world of Shenghui City, the daily wealth is almost no less than that of any of the top trading houses in Shenghui City, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as a lucrative resource. This is also the reason why gangs have been destroyed in Shenghui City for a long time, but gangs have also been born, and I don't know how many people have gone forward and broken their bones.

Someone would kill someone for a gold coin, let alone this eye-popping wealth.

But this is the most common reason, but it is the least likely in this case. These "Tiger Gang", "Bear Gang", "Wolf Gang" and other gangs are not composed of ruffians or down-and-out warriors, but are composed of professional soldiers, these soldiers gather in Shenghui City just to make money? If it is exposed in the future, the nobles, the Violet royal family, and His Majesty will let an uncontrolled army entrench in Shenghui City? extermination is an inevitable result, just to make some money, and just to take such a big risk for a quick moment, Al doesn't believe it.

Therefore, these soldiers gathered in Shenghui City for a more important goal than this wealth, what purpose is worthy of such a violent group? It is really chilling to think about it.

And most crucially, where did these soldiers come from? There are many possibilities, the first is the City Guard, but Al is not convinced, why would the City Guard do this? They themselves are stationed in the City of Radiance, and Duke Leonard would not agree to such a ridiculous thing. If this is the case, it can explain the strange behavior of the new police chief Quentin, who ordered the crackdown to cooperate with the city guards, and in fact he was also instructed by His Majesty, and Duke Leonard was the same.

But if that's the case, what is the intention of Emperor Grievous? Al is becoming more and more unpredictable, what else is there that the Emperor can't deal with directly, and must use such a sneaky method?
