If Dongcheng District represents the dark side of Jiangcheng, then an area near the main square that is collectively known as Square Street is the brightest side of the city.

One of the symbols of Jiangcheng is the Jiangcheng Colosseum here, different from those underground gladiatorial arenas in Dongcheng District, this is the official gladiatorial arena supported by the Jiangcheng government, the gladiatorial arena only holds one game a week, all the gladiators who can participate in the competition here are famous in the world, and most of the people who go in and out to watch the games here are celebrities.

In addition to the Colosseum, the square street is also dotted with most of the luxury stores and banks in Jiangcheng, which can be said to be completely different from Dongcheng District.

The "Evil Dragon Society", which is very rampant in Dongcheng District, must also be a man with his tail between his legs here, so Xinghe asked to negotiate conditions with them here, and there is no need to worry about them playing tricks here, even if the negotiation is not appropriate, he can get out of the way.

"Xinghe, will they come?" asked Anton.

"I don't know. Galaxy replied

He and Anton were sitting on a bench in the main square and watching the endless flow of people in the square, and Lan Yue stayed in the hospital to take care of Ling and did not come. The square is filled with a busy atmosphere, and the things of this time have made the galaxy forget that tomorrow is the time for the start of the autumn competition in the Colosseum, and the Jiangcheng Colosseum will hold a quarterly competition every quarter, for three days, which is a major event in Jiangcheng, which can attract many tourists, and the square is full of people who are busy for the autumn competition, which makes the two people sitting on the bench idle seem a little dazzling, plus the clothes of the two are a little shabby compared to the people around them, and even an old beggar holding a bowl with a lot of money in front of them passed by in front of them and said to them with a sad face, "Young man, work hard!" made the two speechless.

Suddenly, Xinghe felt something his back, and as soon as Xinghe wanted to turn around, he heard a deep voice, "Don't move." ”

Immediately, a person climbed in from behind the bench and squeezed directly into the middle of Anton and Xinghe, but the hard object behind his back was not removed, and Xinghe caught a glimpse of two small leaders of the Evil Dragon Society standing behind him and Anton respectively, and on their backs was a silver folding knife.

And the person who sat between him and Anton and put his hands on their shoulders was actually the boss of the Dragon Society, Kru Duze, and Xinghe did not expect that it would be Du Ze himself who came to negotiate.

Kru Duzer, is a human being, he should be less than twenty years old this year, he has his own surname, which is rare among the gangsters in Dongcheng District, most people in Dongcheng District do not have their own surnames, even Dominic does not have his own surname, a person has a surname to show that his identity is extraordinary, so many people have a lot of speculation about Du Ze's past.

Xinghe didn't know what kind of past Du Ze had, and he didn't like him, but he had to admit that he was indeed a very capable person, he only appeared in Jiangcheng half a year ago, but now his Evil Dragon Club has subdued almost all the thieves and orphans in Dongcheng District, although his subjugation relies largely on violent means, but this can be regarded as a manifestation of his ability.

The last time Xinghe saw him was when he wanted to subdue Xinghe and a few of them, at that time, Du Ze had just learned that Xinghe would have a little magic, so he wanted to take Xinghe under his command, of course, he didn't succeed that time, and since then Xinghe They have been hiding from the "Evil Dragon Society", and naturally they haven't seen him again.

"Yo, Xinghe, it's been a long time, how did you think about that proposal I made last time. A smile appeared on Du Zelu's side face to Xinghe.

"Du Ze, this is in public. Xinghe pointed to the ** behind himself and Anton with his eyes.

Du Zenu lowered his mouth, snapped his fingers casually, the two ** on the backs of Xinghe and Anton were put away, and the two small leaders with knives also took a step back, but they still stood where they could reach Xinghe and Anton at any time.

"Xinghe, I heard that you haven't had a good time lately" Du Ze turned his head to look at Xinghe, with a concerned expression on his face.

"Not because of you. Anton snorted angrily.

Hearing his words, the two small leaders standing behind were about to step forward, but Du Ze stretched out his hand to stop them, and he showed a look of embarrassment, "Xinghe, you also have to understand my difficulties, I don't mean to target you, but you have been unwilling to join the gang, the impact is too great, many brothers in the association have opinions, even if I am the boss, I can't keep suppressing everyone's grievances." ”

Listening to his bullshit nonsense, Xinghe has long been angry, but when Nai is like this, he can only suppress his anger and say: "Du Ze, everyone is not idle and has nothing to do, if you have time to talk about these things that waste everyone's energy, it is better to talk about business." ”

"Then what kind of business do you want to talk about?" Du Ze leaned on him with interest.

"I heard you've been trying to hire a small thief lately?" Xinghe looked at him coldly.

"That's true, but I've heard a few things lately. ”

"What's the matter?" Xinghe looked at the mysterious smile on Du Ze's face, and suddenly had a bad premonition.

"What is that girl's name, let me think. Du Ze made a thoughtful look, "Ah, I remember, it seems to be called Ling, right?" Du Ze suddenly pressed his face tightly in front of Xinghe, and the noses of the two were almost colliding together, "How much does a dialysis cost, and how much does her surgery cost?" And I heard that Jiangcheng has been very unpeaceful recently, and Jiangcheng Public Hospital was robbed two days ago. ”

"Du Ze, you threaten me!" Xinghe was just about to get up, but he found that he was tightly pressed by the shoulders of the two little leaders, and he couldn't move for a while, but the two controlled Xinghe, but they ignored Anton, only to see Anton suddenly jump up from the bench and punch Du Ze on the left side of his face, and the defenseless Du Ze was suddenly knocked to the ground, so that the two little leaders who held down Xinghe were stunned, and Anton hurriedly made a posture to prepare for a fight in front of them, and even the eyes of many people in the square were attracted here.

"I'm fine. Du Ze, whose head was still buried in the ground, suddenly stretched out a hand and motioned for the two little leaders not to move, and then he got up from the ground and casually spat out a mouthful of blood-stained phlegm.

"Little fat man, I remember your name is Anton, right? Du Ze took out a handkerchief from his breast pocket and wiped his mouth, Anton looked at him vigilantly, to Xinghe's surprise, Du Ze did not show signs of anger, "You are very good, your strength is very good, let him go too." Du Ze said to the two little leaders who held down the galaxy.

After the two men hesitated for a moment, slightly reducing the strength in their hands, Xinghe immediately broke free from their hands, and moved his somewhat stiff hands, but he didn't make any more movements.

After Du Ze put the handkerchief that wiped his mouth back in his pocket, he looked at him and Anton with a calm expression, and the corner of his mouth could still see the breach made by Anton's punch just now, "Xinghe, I am a person who loves talents, and you are a talent, I believe that you and I will be able to do something together to make a career, and our achievements will not only be limited to that small area in Dongcheng District, so I have always treated you with courtesy, but you also need to understand that opportunities are fleeting, and there are many thieves in Dongcheng District who are better than you." ”

Xinghe stood up from the bench and looked directly into Du Ze's eyes, of course he knew that cooperating with the Evil Dragon Society was tantamount to conspiring with the tiger, but he didn't have any support, "Du Ze, I know that I am definitely not the best thief in Jiangcheng, but you definitely have no choice but me." ”

"Most of the thieves in the East City District have been taken under your command, but you still have to ask Dominic to help you find the thieves. Xinghe had been staring at Du Ze's eyes when he said this, but Du Ze's eyes were calm like a pool of lake water, which made Xinghe feel bottomless, but he still stubbornly continued, " This can only mean that there are no people who meet your requirements among the thieves under your command, there are many thieves under your command, many of them are good, then the problem can only be in your requirements, you want to be small and good thieves, but all good thieves can not be too fat, you want to find a small one can only mean that you really need to be small, so your best choice is to find a Moro or Paro thief (Note 1), but I have not heard of such people in the city, so you can only settle for the second, find a child with good skills, there are few people in Dongcheng District who are more skilled than me, and I still have this confidence。 ”

Du Ze bowed slightly, "Yes, what you said is not wrong, but Xinghe, as you said yourself, you are not irreplaceable, there are still young thieves in Jiangcheng who are no less skilled than you." ”

"But not for you. "The purpose of Bridgesmith' is not only to protect employers, but also employees, and thanks to Dominica's existence, thieves need to leave behind only a name without fear of revealing their true identity." But your request breaks the rules, and you won't even say what you're going to do, so no one will come to take your task but me. ”

"It looks like I don't have a choice. Du Ze smiled, "Then how much money do you want." ”

"The more the merrier. Galaxy replied.

"One hundred thousand. Du Ze flattened his wrinkled clothes because of Anton's punch, and then turned around and prepared to leave, "See you at the dock tomorrow night, there is only one condition, don't ask anything, what do I say, what do you do." ”

"This can't be! you have to tell me what you're going to do!" Xinghe was about to step forward and grab Du Ze, but was stopped by the two small bosses.

Du Ze glanced back, "What are you doing in such a hurry, you will know what you are going to do tomorrow night." ”

"Say it now!" Xinghe stared at Du Ze tightly.

Du Ze turned around and looked at Xinghe, "Xinghe, you must know that you are not the only candidate, I chose you just because I was in a hurry, and you have no capital to refuse." ”

After saying that, Du Ze turned around and left, Xinghe wanted to catch up, but was blocked by the two little bosses, and finally had to give up.

"Xinghe, are we really going?" asked Anton.

Xinghe stared at the back of Du Ze, who was gradually engulfed by the sea of people, and a sentence popped out from between his teeth.

"Go, why not?"
