Chapter 601: Confirmed Identity
For those in power, it is very common to use the black forces in the lower classes as eyeliners, and for LeBlanc, Black Rose should not be satisfied with just a gangster group mixed with the bottom of society, become the other side of society, become the black agent of the person in power, and become the shadow government of a country is the purpose of Black Rose.
After annexing many small gangs, the gradually growing Black Rose took advantage of the opportunity of the large-scale search for arson criminals in the Free City that caused the external forces against itself to temporarily stop fighting, and quickly adjusted its development position, abandoning the old methods such as extortion, collecting protection money, stealing and smuggling contraband, and Black Rose quickly developed in the direction of collecting and selling stolen goods and controlling the online market. In this way, we have cooperated with the city security team, which is now in need of a large number of eyeliners.
Because Black Rose has taken control of many stolen goods trading places, this is exactly the eyeliner that the security team needs, and the cooperation plan between the two sides hit it off. Of course, in return, the vigilantes reduced their targeting of Black Rose during this search, and at the same time secretly acquiesced in Black Rose's business outside of Black Street, such as bars, casinos, brothels, and so on.
At the same time, LeBlanc is also well aware of one thing, the Black Rose that has developed in the Black Street will never be able to leave the corrupt soil that can breed him, and it is one thing to cooperate with the vigilantes, but it is another thing to continue to strengthen the control of the Black Street. LeBlanc doesn't want to accidentally offend too many characters and gangs in the black street when cooperating with the security team, and can't let the black street form a feeling that the black rose betrays its own people, and now the black rose can't be isolated but needs to use the power of the white road to accelerate development, so LeBlana spent a lot of thought and subtlety to control the balance between each other.
"Hmph~" Ji Leng snorted: "Play some clever female foxes." ”
"A lot of great wisdom is accumulated by small cleverness~" LeBlanc looked at the robbery disapprovingly, and that look seemed to say that I am much better than you now.
Alin didn't care about LeBlanc's tightrope walking strategy, even if LeBlanc got rid of it, she was a trickster and a witch queen, playing with the wisdom of Roxus to fight for power, she must have been ready to retreat, how do you think that LeBlanc, who originally led Black Rose and could disappear and endure until the establishment of League of Legends, reappeared in a new guise, is the kind of character who becomes a benevolent if he doesn't succeed.
"There's still too little time to work with the vigilantes, so I can't do it for the time being. Please give me a little time, and I'll let the roots of the black rose dig inside. ”
The appearance of the soul stone and the accident that passed by made Yalin's mood fluctuate, Yalin took some time to sort out the relevant information that Lelouch got after coming to the free city, first of all, the most suspected arson prisoner this time, according to the information provided by Lelouch, this prisoner can indeed appear immediately after the appearance of the soul stone in time, and there has never been such an unfathomable criminal in the free city before. For this Yalin can already be determined. The continuous theft cases that occurred in the free city must be the holder of the soul stone, and the other party must have inadvertently obtained the soul stone, but because of the power of the gem to liberate the ** and lock the heart to use it as he wants, the powerful power of the soul stone allows the prisoner to do all kinds of big crimes without being discovered by anyone, and even the spiritual power of the dragon can't detect the other party.
As for the identity of the other party, first of all, Yalin deduced that the possibility of the other party being a human is very high!
After all, the largest population of the Free City is still humans, and alien races such as elves, dwarves, and orcs have all appeared as slaves, even if there may be powerful alien races like blood clans and dragons living here secretly, but their overall number is too small. The odds of getting a Soul Stone are also too small.
If it were a human being, then a slave would have taken this opportunity to escape from this city that seemed like hell to him, and if he hadn't escaped, he would have stayed and might have been an ordinary citizen of the city, but was that really the case?
Yarin and Lelouch had been analyzing any clues by collecting information about the Dao, and any suspicious situation that happened in the Free City after the appearance of the Soul Stone was combined back and forth in the minds of the two of them and tried to connect them together, and finally when Yalin looked through a document, the messy clues in his mind were suddenly strung together.
"Yes, that's what we heard when we came to the city, and it seems that the rioting slaves had rushed out of their prison intending to kidnap the merchant Philiples. ”
Lelouch thought about it at this time and told some of the gossip that he had originally inquired about: "But there are some rumors behind this riot. It is said that the leader of the team was an orc who was supposed to be a slave who would have been killed in the arena with Gelkite the next day, but rumors say that the orcs turned into monsters during the battle, and that the orcs summoned demons. ”
Yalin in the projection slapped his head, and his tone became urgent.
It was realized by Yalin at this point Lelouxiu. However, he said with some distress: "But the orc has been killed by the arena champion, and his head was even hung for nearly a week before being buried, if it was really him who got the soul stone, it could also fall ┉┉"
Suddenly, Leluxiu paused, seemed to remember something, and suddenly said: "Wait~ After that riot, the arena champion Gelkite put a reward on a child who participated in the riot at that time to arrest him, if you consider it together with the current situation." The rioting slave kid was the one who took the Soul Stone. ”
The warehouses that were burned down in the recent fire in the warehouse area all belonged to the slave trader Philipus, who dared to brazenly provoke the Big Three in the free city. And he can break through the protection of the large magic circle at will, and he probably can't think of anyone else except this child. Perhaps the purpose of all this is probably revenge, and revenge on Phillips may also be revenge on the city!
Soon after the comms, Alyssa brings information about the child who has been bountied, named Claire, a second-generation slave. Originally a slave in charge of miscellaneous items in the Free City Arena. Flee after starting a riot with an orc named Longa. The fact that he had his arm cut off in the scuffle was a striking sign, and now the Free City City vigilantes offered a reward of 100,000 miles for his capture, and the arena champion Gelkate offered a reward of 1 million miles for his capture.
"Is that the kid?"
Looking at the thin face on the wanted post, Lelouch asked hesitantly.
Alisa nodded and said, "Yes, Your Excellency Leluxiu, Gerkat is now offering a reward of one million miles to capture him, but it is reported that Gelkate's reward order has a side requirement, that is, to capture the other party alive." ”
It's a good thing to know the identity of the target, at least now Lelouch and the others won't be looking blindly like headless flies, but having the identity information of the other party does not mean that they can find the other party immediately. The kid has been wanted since the riots in Free City, and the bounty of a million miles is not a small amount, and the mercenaries and bounty hunters who are active in Free City have been searching for him for a long time, and no one has been able to find him until now.
Using the power of gemstones to hide yourself is really hard to detect!
In Lelouch's opinion, Claire used the Soul Stone to hide herself, and even the dragon couldn't detect its existence, let alone ordinary people. It's just that no matter how mysterious the power of the soul stone is, judging from the theft incident in which the other party stole some scattered cash, it is obvious that Claire still needs to use the money to buy things such as food and daily necessities. In other words, Claire needs to eat and sleep normally, and he can't use the soul stone twenty-four hours a day.
But now Lelouch can only stand still for the time being. There are too few people on his side, and now he can only wait and see the city security team. If their prediction is correct, the security team will soon be able to lock on to the target and take action, and perhaps their own side can take this opportunity to catch the teenager named Claire first.
┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉
And in the abandoned room hidden in the intricate underground sewers of the lower part of the Free City, Claire, who is now stirring up the frenzied search of many forces in the Free City, has just barely cleaned up her room.
Claire, who grew up as a slave, has a very thin concept of money, and in the eyes of boys, money can be exchanged for food and clothing, but money is never their own.
What does it feel like to be buried with money?
Claire, who used to be a slave, often heard such ridicule from some aristocratic lords and merchants, but today Claire enjoys the feeling of being buried with money. It almost felt like I was almost going to die!
After using the power of gems to erase the magic circle on a space ring that he harvested last night, he originally wanted to see what interesting things would be in the space ring of that pure and beautiful girl, but it was not the rag dolls, ornaments or some close-fitting clothes that Claire had thought, and before Claire could react, the gold coins, jewelry, art treasures, and rare ores that were like mountains suddenly swarmed out and flooded the boy's room.
Claire, who was crushed under the mountain of gold and almost suffocated, finally escaped, and was completely dumbfounded when she looked at the room that was almost filled with countless gold, silver and jewelry.
