Chapter 184: Security Work
Before Alyssa took over the Musa Foundation's annual exhibition of monster fossils, it had been Ramov Lancelot in charge. At one point, this person had taken over all the security chiefs of the past ten years, and even many of the monsters on the cruise ship were familiar with him.
This has to involve some issues left over from history.
The imperial capital was able to collect taxes from people of all classes, as well as annual offerings from other nations. The Church, on the other hand, has almost no regular income other than the rewards that the knights get in exchange for eliminating the threat of monsters. Often, the people who post rewards for monster harm are village-level cadres, and these people themselves don't have much money. The Musa Foundation has been in the company of wild monsters all year round, and sometimes encounters a lot of threats, so under the leadership of the founder of the Foundation, that is, the first of the Musa family, they have developed a long-term cooperative relationship with the church.
The cooperation between the two sides is simply that the Musa consortium provides the money, and the church provides the thugs...... Ahem, knight. This cooperation has been maintained to this day, so the relationship between the Musa Foundation and the Church has always been very close, and in order to support the concept and construction of the Musa Foundation, the Church will also send a heavyweight knight every year to assist in the exhibition of the Musa Foundation.
In fact, everyone knows in their hearts that the intervention of the Knights of the Round Table is just an attitude expressed by the church on the surface, in the words that Lin Qiu understands, that is, "The Musa consortium is covered by us, and we must weigh our own weight before moving them." Of course, the church, as the embodiment of justice, might express this passage in a more euphemistic way. Judging from the experience of the exhibitions of the past dynasties, as long as people with normal brain circuits do not jump out and contradict the church at such times, so the Knight of the Round Table Ramov Lancelot has always done his job well.
However, the main reason why Ramov repeatedly attended as a security representative may be that he was the only one who stayed in the church when the other Knights of the Round Table were far away from the imperial capital because of their own affairs. Compared to the other round table players, Ramov is a casual player through and through.
This year, however, is different.
The church was injected with fresh blood, and Ramov also found a scapegoat with tears in his eyes...... No, it should be a newcomer worth grooming, Elisa. In order to fulfill the love affair between Alyssa and Lin Qiu, he could only "sacrifice" himself and push this tedious task to Alyssa.
The bishop originally intended to let Ramov take Alyssa to familiarize himself with the work, but Ramov encountered some irresistible accidents on the way there.
For example, he was hammered into the hospital by an unknown thug - he even had a sick note open.
So Alyssa, who has always been conscientious and responsible for her work, could only learn the details of the work by herself the day before the start of the launch, but what she didn't expect was that she would actually bump into Lin Qiu during her work, as well as ...... Phoenix. She couldn't help but think of the newspaper about Lin Qiu and Phoenix.
"Yo, Alyssa, you've arrived!" Lin Qiu naturally greeted Alyssa.
"Huh? So you know? That's great, so I don't need to introduce you more. Eric said in surprise: "The VIPs I just mentioned to you are them, and the security work mainly revolves around them. ”
Eric warmly ushered the men into his office, leaving a message of "I'll go get you some commemorative gifts." And he hurried away.
After Eric left, Alyssa asked suspiciously, "How did you become VIPs?"
With her understanding of Lin Qiu......
Well, Alyssa thought about it for a moment and found that Lin Qiu was omnipotent, and becoming a VIP of the Musa Consortium was not a difficult thing for this guy at all. Before coming here, Alyssa had gone through the security work at a cursory glance, and the staff who introduced her said that many of them had been added this year.
The reason is that this time the VIPs are special, they can't predict people's attitudes towards a monster as a VIP, in order to prevent some extreme people who hate monsters from blending into the crowd......
"Non-existent. ”
Lin Qiu only listened to half of it, and then came to the conclusion in advance: "Any extreme person can only be regarded as a pediatric in front of Phoenix." ”
He did not believe that there were more extreme players in the Horutia League than Phoenix, who was openly opposed to the Church and the Holy Maiden. Those who bury their hatred in their hearts and only dare to carry out sneaky attacks are obviously not on the same level as Phoenix, who threatens to beat each other in front of the saint.
Alyssa thought about it carefully and found that what Lin Qiu said was not unreasonable.
Even if the extremists really existed, I am afraid that the scene at that time would be her trying her best to stop Phoenix and prevent those people from being killed in seconds.
And after she met Phoenix, she finally understood Eric's intentions: "The Musa Foundation wants you to serve as a bridge between humans and monsters...... And what about you? What are you doing here?"
"Truth be told, I'm fighting a transnational drug trafficking organization. Lin Qiuxu pushed the glasses that didn't exist, and said seriously.
"It's true that the Musa consortium is a cross-organization, but I'm pretty sure they don't sell drugs. Alyssa responded to Lin Qiu in the same serious tone.
"That's right! you're the only one here to resell those white powders, Tyr!" Phoenix habitually stood on the opposite side of Lin Qiu. Even if she doesn't know Eric's ideals, she will still do it, because she has been very keen to raise the bar with Lin Qiu recently.
"Who's selling white powder?"
Lin Qiu confidently came to Eric's seat and opened the drawer, revealing the black powder in the first compartment.
He's a master of storyline development!
After an initial lighthearted state, the story is now almost getting to the point - and it is common for the story to stumble upon a suspicious object in the Musa consortium's base camp and uncover the Mousa consortium's conspiracy step by step. So he doesn't have to look at it to know what ulterior secrets are hidden in this office.
"Hmph, then you say, what is this?"
Lin Qiu flipped the transparent bag in his hand.
"This is cocoa powder, I found it delicious when I traveled through a country in the west, and I was about to invite you to taste it, Mr. Tyre. ”
Eric walked in the door and said with a smile.
Embarrassed.
Alyssa and Phoenix rolled their eyes at Lin Qiu in unison.
"Ahem...... Of course, as a detective, I discovered early on that there was a super delicious cocoa powder hidden here. ”
"Please stop tarnishing the name of the detective. Alyssa helplessly held her forehead.
But seeing Lin Qiu's appearance, she was also a little relieved - this was the Lin Qiu she was familiar with.
What's going on?
Lin Qiu sat stiffly in his position.
Could it be that he really misunderstood?
Is this Musa consortium that suddenly appeared really just ordinary good entrepreneurs?
