readx;?“ If I ask you to stop investigating this, will you accept it?", Sergey asked. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 infokxs7.
"Can't ......", Lloyd looked a little embarrassed.
"If you stop here, you'll probably be haunted by the future," Randy said.
"yes, we all have that much information," Ellie said.
"I feel the same way," Tio said.
"yes...," Sergey said.
"Then let's get to the bottom of it!", I said.
"Chief, leave it to us to deal with it ourselves," I said.
"It's really motivating," Ellie said.
"How did you answer so easily...," Lloyd said.
"Don't you want to?", I asked.
"No, that's it, chief, we'll try," Lloyd said.
"Well, at least I'll introduce you to a good advisor," Sergey said.
"Good advisor?", everyone wondered.
Sergey walked up to us and handed us a business card.
"Grimwood Lawyers?", the crowd wondered.
"I think I've heard it somewhere," Lloyd said.
"It's the law firm on West Main Street, and there's a lawyer there," I said.
"Well, yes, there's a bearded lawyer named Ian," Sergey said.
"Ah, next to the bakery, I used to say hello a few times when I lived there," Lloyd exclaimed.
"I've also heard of lawyers who act as legal advisers to businesses and traders, and he also does legal advice to ordinary citizens," says Ellie.
"He has a bearded face like a bear, so everyone calls him Bear Beard, and that lawyer should have a lot of information, even the police don't know about it," Sergey said.
Everyone was shocked.
"What's the beginning of this lawyer?", Randy asked.
"It's better to see than to see," Sergey said.
"Well, let's go check it out," I said.
A group of five of us went through the back door of the Secret Service Support Section towards West Street.
"Let's go to the bakery first, there's an acquaintance there who wants to say hello," Lloyd said.
"Yes, yes," Ellie said.
"Let's go check it out," I said.
So we walked into the bakery that I was more familiar with.
As soon as you enter the door, you will see Oscar standing in front of the counter.
"Hello, Oscar," Lloyd said.
"Oh, isn't this Lloyd? and Huahui," Oscar exclaimed.
"Do you know each other?", the others asked.
"No, I came here to help me a while ago," I said.
"Well, it was a great help and gave us a lot of ingredients," Oscar said.
"It's nothing, come to me if you need it," I said.
"I'm now part of Lloyd's Secret Service Support Section," I said.
"Oh, what an accident," Oscar said.
"But then again, Lloyd, you've finally come to see me! It's been a long time, maybe a year!", Oscar said.
“...... I said, we haven't seen each other for three years," Lloyd said. (Read the novel to go to the fastest update)
"You're still so hard to see whether it's sharp or thick," Lloyd said.
"You too, you seem to have grown a lot taller, but your baby face hasn't changed at all," Oscar said.
Lloyd was taken aback, and the others snickered.
"Looks like he's a friend of Lloyd," Tio said.
"Well, I'm Oscar, working as a baker in this bakery," Oscar said.
"You're Lloyd's colleagues," Oscar said.
The crowd began to introduce themselves.
"By the way, Lloyd, are you still cooking?", Oscar said.
"Well, it's still in the works," Lloyd said.
"Here's what you'll get then", Oscar handed over a manual.
"It's a cookbook, study it!", Oscar said.
"Thank you," Lloyd said.
"We still have something to do, so we're leaving," I said.
"Well, I'll let you know when there's a new product, so remember to come," Oscar said.
"Well, it will come", I waved my hand.
"Looks like you're pretty familiar with Oscar," Ellie said.
"Well, because he was given the ingredients, he let me taste the new products for free," I said.
"Oh, that's nice," Ellie said.
"I'll take you with me!", I said.
"Really?", Randy asked.
"Well, of course," I said.
"Now it's a blessing," Tio said.
Next, we walked next door to the bakery.
"This is the law firm," Ellie said.
"Let's go, let's go in and have a look," I said.
The crowd was about to push open the door when someone came out.
"Thank you, lawyer, I'll ask for your help later," a male voice said.
"But can you think of anything else? This can be regarded as a little voice of the citizen...", another man asked.
"It's not our job to please the citizens, so that's it," the man said.
The voice was so familiar, I reacted immediately.
A man walked out, with a pair of glasses and dark green hair, and a strong sense of arrogance was felt in him.
He was Dudley.
Name: Alex Dudley
Age: 27
Gender: Male
A search officer of the "Search Division 1", an elite group affiliated with the police department.
He has excellent abilities and a cool head.,Prudently deal with the various crises in the torrent of the autonomous region.,But it's a little too serious.,So I'm very skeptical of the Special Mission Support Section to which Lloyd belongs.。
Although he belongs to the elite of the mind, his body has also undergone considerable training, and he can be proficient in the use of large military guide pistols.
"I'll go, search Dudley in the First Branch," I whispered.
"What, is that a search section?", several people exclaimed.
"You are...... I see, it's Sergey's new puppies," Dudley said.
"Ah, that's enough, why is everyone like this...", I cried out. kxs7.
"Who are you? Why haven't you seen it?" said Dudley.
"Nobody, you don't have to worry too much," I said.
"Forget it, but you should have come to Attorney Ian, Attorney Ian has a very busy day, so don't bother with useless people like you," Dudley said.
"What!", I was furious.
"Hua Hui...", Roy stopped me and shook his head.
But he ignored me and walked straight past me.
"Since he's the one who searched the first section, we can't do anything about it," Randy said.
"Let's go inside!", Ellie said.
So we pushed the door open and walked inside.
"Oh, is this something forgotten?", a male voice came over.
"Ah, that's rude," the man said.
"Welcome to Grimwood Law Firm, do you have any questions you need to consult?", the man asked.
"Ah, no," Lloyd said.
"Oh yes, you're welcome," the man said.
"You're Attorney Ian!", I asked.
"Well, what's the matter?", the man said.
"We want to ask you about ...... That Rubahçe intelligence", I said.
Then we told him a series of things.
"Where do you think you've seen it?" Ian asked.
"Well, do you remember? I used to live here, I'm Lloyd Bannings," Lloyd said.
Attorney Ian was shocked.
"Bannings, are you Kay's brother?", Ian asked.
"Well, yes," Lloyd said.
"What a shock," Ian said.
"Do you know my brother?", Lloyd asked.
"To know is to know...", Ian said.
"If you have something important to do with me, sit down and talk," Ian said.
"I'll give you an introduction, I'm Ian Grimwood, and I'm a lawyer at this firm," Ian said.
"But is that the case? Kai's brother has also become a police officer, and it feels like fate," Ian said.
"What ......is the relationship between my brother and you?" asked Lloyd.
"Like you, he occasionally comes back to exchange information, and he is a good cop who has helped me a lot," Ian said.
"That's... Wait a minute, Lloyd, is your brother a searcher?", Ellie said.
"Well, it's so out-of-the-box that we didn't even say it," Randy said.
"I'm sorry, I haven't had a chance to say it," Lloyd said.
"Kay Bannings died three years ago," I said.
"Ahh
"Looks like this little brother knows something," Ian said.
"Just call me Huahui, it's true that I have some information, but I want Lloyd to explore it yourself," I said.
"Well, I see," Lloyd said.
"Don't talk about that, lawyer Ian, tell us about Rubahe!", Lloyd said.
"Well, as for their rumors, there are only some bad aspects of smuggling, money laundering, etc., in the empire and the republic," Ian said.
"But either one takes advantage of Crossbell's peculiarities," says Ian.
"Cross Bell's peculiarities?"
"In recent years, the trade and financial industries have grown stronger, but the political base has been extremely fragile," says Ellie.
"Yes, most politicians, either the imperialist or the republican, have a lot of power-hungry people," Ian said.
"And even if there is evidence of a ban on the mafia's underground activities, it will be undermined by lawmakers who are in cahoots with them," Ian continued.
"What is this...... Really?", Randy looked incredulous.
"It's a shame, it's true, it's said that many lawmakers have secret deals with Rubahe, and I'm afraid that's the real reason why the police can't act," Ellie said.
"Alas, this is the ugliness of human beings, and there will be such people everywhere", I sighed.
"However, there is also a bottom line, if the obvious crime is ignored, the citizens and the surrounding countries will not remain silent...... At the moment, Rubahce has also taken the initiative to abide by the only bottom line of not causing direct impact on the citizens," said Ian.
"Whatever they do, as long as they don't violate that line, the police won't be there, but they will flout," Ian continued.
"That's ......," Lloyd said.
"I see," Randy said.
"Behind the vibrant metropolis, there's a lot of demons and monsters," Randy said.
"I'd love to see information that is more classified than classified," Tio said.
"That's what happened to Rubahce lately, but things have changed recently," Ian said.
"What's going on?", I asked.
"I'm afraid it's information that the police don't know, but there have been forces that have been fighting against Rubache recently, and it's quite strong," Ian said.
"Is this a guerrilla association?" asked Lloyd.
"No, this hostile force is also on the underworld," Ian said.
"There's a hugely powerful group on Oriental's Street in the Republic of Calvard, and it seems to be 'marching' on Crossbell," Ian said.
"Really!", everyone was shocked.
"Well, the rumors have spread, and it doesn't seem to be groundless, that organization is called Black Moon, and it has opened a Black Moon Trading Company in the Harbor District," Ian said.
"Black Moon...... It's an oriental name," says Theo.
"Still, mafia fights, it's much more serious than hooligan fights," Randy said.
"Thankfully, they haven't officially started fighting yet, but I'm afraid they'll do it one way or the other," Ian said.
"The Police's Search Division 1 and other departments seem to be on the lookout for this," Ian said.
"That's the policeman who just walked out," I said.
"Well, he's the Dudley Investigator of the First Section, and he's here for what I told you," Ian said.
"That's right......," Ellie said.
"Thank you very much, Ian lawyer, thanks to the lawyer, I saw a breakthrough," Lloyd said.
"Is that so, I am always taken care of by Sergei, and I personally support your work, and if there is anything else, you are welcome to come back again," Ian said.
So we walked out of the law firm.
"And then, what to do?", I asked.
"If you're going to put the clues together, let's go back to the Secret Service Section!", Ellie said.
"If it turns out to be what I think, it will be quite tricky," Lloyd continued.
"Oh, you're pretty confident," Randy said.
"Let's go back then!", Tyo said.
"You guys go back first, I have some personal matters, and I can buy some furniture," I said.
"That's right, well, hurry up, we'll talk about it when you get back," Lloyd said.
"Well, you can just start and tell me the general situation later," I said.
"No, it's okay, we're a collective," Lloyd said.
"That's right, Huahui", Randy strangled my neck again.
"yes, I see", I nodded.
Then Lloyd and I parted for a while, and I came to the entertainment street and walked into the Rainbow Theater.
Of course, I had come to look for Elia and them, and as soon as I walked in the door, a man who looked like a butler was standing at the counter.
"Oh, you're ...... I'm very sorry, but the Rainbow Theatre troupe's performance starts at 6 p.m., so fans of the troupe are not allowed to enter," said the man.
"Ah, I'm sorry, I'm someone Miss Elija knows, and I'm here to ask for her," I said.
"What's wrong?", a familiar voice came.
I followed the source of the sound and it was Elia.
"Yo, Elija," I smiled.
"Isn't it, brother? Well, manager, he's someone I know, let him in," said Elia.
The manager nodded, and I walked over to Ilia.
"What's the matter, you suddenly want to come here", Illya asked.
"I'm joining the Secret Service Support Section today," I said.
"Is that the one in that weekly?", Illya asked.
"Well, probably, so I'm going to move into the Secret Service Support Section," I said.
"I'm sorry, but you've already helped me find a place to stay," I said apologetically.
"That's right, but, brother, what about my three meals a day?" said Elia.
"Eh, when, when was I asked to do such a thing," I wondered.
"Ah, brother, your craft is so good, do you need to say it?", said Elia.
"That's right......," I said.
"But I'm really sorry, I don't want to bother you, I'd better move out by myself," I said.
"Why do you say that to Lixia," Illya grumbled.
"Is Lixia too?", I asked.
"Well, she's moved out too," Elija said.
"Forget it, I don't care about you," Illya continued.
"As an apology, I'll be sure to prepare a great meal for you," I said.
"Really?", Illya looked at me.
"Really," I said.
"Ah, brother, it's so cute", said Illya and hugged her.
"Hey, wait... Elia", I exclaimed.
Elija tends to be a little open sometimes, alas.
