Chapter 1518: C: The Twilight Incident (24)
In order to deepen the location advantages of Gotham, continue to deepen the cultivation of theft and its ancillary industries, and also to open up the blue ocean route of the industry to stabilize the rudder and further play the guiding role of the industry leader, in the three-day Gotham theft industry summit talks, the experts of the Gotham theft industry are on the blue road, with a humble heart to re-take the old road of theft technology upgrading, with bright expectations to show the team style of the new era.
In this summit of the Gotham theft industry, more than 200 elite representatives broke the bottleneck and broadened the horizons for the development of the theft industry, so that the Gotham theft industry reached the first comprehensive cooperation in the industry, and set a real milestone for Gotham and even the East Coast crime field.
The Gotham City Government provided the venue for the summit, and Mayor Roy also established the theme of the meeting "We should steal everything and let no wealth flow out of Gotham".
Among them, the Gotham Police Department vigorously cooperated, and the police officers gave guidance on the technical problems arising during the summit, and solved the technical blind spots that may occur in the future with a targeted vision, so that the backbone elites of the theft industry have a more comprehensive interpretation of the development prospects of the industry.
After the summit, the backbone elites from all walks of life brought their rich experience and new skills learned at the conference to the grassroots level of the Gotham theft industry, providing detailed guidance on individual technical problems and deepening the cultivation of the overall situation.
In terms of theoretical learning, it introduces a variety of disciplines such as jewelry appreciation, historical relics and handicraft protection that most grassroots practitioners have never been involved in. In terms of technical practice, the division of labor is to the person, traced back to the second, and truly the eyes are faster than the heart, the hands are faster than the eyes, and the value should be taken as much as possible.
After a new round of technical structure upgrading, grassroots practitioners have fully mastered the basic spirit of cross-field collaboration at the industry level, and have exercised their skills and reactions to the extreme in terms of individuals.
At the end of the Gotham Theft Industry Summit, the industry leaders and grassroots practitioners fully demonstrated the spirit of craftsmanship in the new era of the East Coast City with their superb academic level and practical ability.
That is, the day after the thieves trained and taught the skills to the low-level thieves, the first group of mages flew to Gotham Airport, and they were the members of the most anxious group of archmages in the league.
As for why they took the plane, of course, it was because they were reluctant to use the energy they had left, and this group of mages who had almost nothing but borrowed energy were not much different from ordinary people, and they had not grabbed a single black diamond so far.
The mages had heard about the security situation in Gotham, but each of them had life-saving items full of energy, but they didn't expect that the first hurdle to stop them was not the fierce gangsters with weapons in their hands, but a group of children holding their legs and immobilizing them.
"Uncle, uncle, buy a flower, uncle, you are the best, buy a flower! Today's flowers are particularly good, buy a flower for this aunt, you are a good person, buy a flower! ”
"Uncle, order a newspaper from me! You won't find a cheaper one in Gotham, so book a newspaper with news about the opening of the concert, uncle, a newspaper! ”
"Uncle, do you want cigarettes? There are all brands of cigarettes here, Auntie, do you want cigarettes? I'm the cheapest in all of Gotham, please, buy a pack of cigarettes, uncle, let's pack a pack of cigarettes! ”
"Uncle, auntie, do you need a tour guide? I'm familiar with this area nearby, I'm a local, you definitely need a guide, I'm articulate, I run fast, you can't find a better tour guide than me in this area! ”
Not far from the turnstile, a dozen children rushed up and hugged their legs and began to scream, at first just chirping, and then starting to cry.
"Please! Uncle, buy a flower! If I don't complete the mission, I'll be killed! Auntie, you are the most kind-hearted, buy me a flower, otherwise I won't have anything to eat tonight, I don't want to be hungry, please, buy me a flower! ”
"Please, if I can't complete the task, I'll be beaten, get a newspaper, it's not expensive!"
What is the sound of a dozen seven or eight-year-old children crying together, even if you have never brought a child, you can imagine.
And the strength of their pulling should not be underestimated, two female mages in the mage's team hesitated for a second, and in an instant they were like dogs falling into a drainage ditch, kicking their legs and unable to get out.
"Let go, let go, let go of me! I don't buy anything, let it go! The older bald mage in the lead shook off his little hand on his pants, beckoned to the people behind him, and said, "Hurry up, ignore them!" ”
The others struggled for a while to get out of the quagmire, and as soon as they left, the eldest child in the group squeaked, crossed his arms and said, "Shameless door-pickers, you think you can cheat a few orders...... Forget it, who touched the wallet? ”
"I, I touched one, but it's a little thin."
"I'm thick, look at me."
"I took a stick from his waist, is this a staff? Is this gem worth anything? ”
Hearing this, all the children came closer, and the child in the lead looked at the thing in the hand of the child who spoke, which was a small wooden stick made of two spirals of branches crossed together, and between the two branches there was a blue gem, which shimmered faintly.
"They say that magical items can sell for a lot of money, and we make a lot of money!" The children stared at the wand with shiny eyes, and then another child raised his hand and said, "What is this eye-like thing?" I pulled out from the back of their boots. ”
Several people came over one after another, and the eldest kid in the lead waved his hand and said, "Let's go, go back to the base, there are adults there who can understand." ”
On the way back, he raised his head triumphantly, like a victorious rooster, and said, "I said that I would grab the first one, and there will be a lot of gain!" Those cowards didn't dare to go up, and they wanted to wait in the streets, and when the fat pigs fell into their hands, they were all stripped of their skins! ”
As the child king said, the second calamity for the mages was the many Asian black car drivers blocking the airport gates.
"Taxi, taxi! Direct access to the Gotham Cathedral, take a taxi or not, three people carpool one person ten yuan, taxi, taxi! ”
"Hello sir, do you want to take a taxi? Walk to Gotham East, arrive in 20 minutes, and come with a travel guide, take a taxi? ”
"One is missing, one is missing, one is missing, and one is leaving! Do any of you have taxis? Ten minutes to the East District, you have to go, right, come, luggage for me...... Give me! ”
One of the mages on the far right of the line argued with the taxi driver who was picking up passengers, clutching his box and yelling at his companion, "Come and help me, they're going to steal me!" ”
"Hey, what are you doing quickly, let him go!"
As soon as these words came out, the surrounding black car drivers all looked over, staring at this side with a peculiar gaze that was different from that of white people, and the closest ones had already walked over with their arms crossed.
"What do you want to do?" The bald mage in the lead shouted inwardly, and the Asian who came over showed a shy smile at him and said, "Come and ask if you can take a ride." ”
"Hey, this good brother wants a ride too, right? Come on, come on, hurry up and help people carry their luggage, and this one here, you're going to the East End, right? Come and two people to help, this luggage is not light, and this brother, you have a broken leg, right? It's okay, we can carry you over. ”
"Wait, you can't ......" The bald mage looked left and right as he saw his companion being carried away with his luggage.
Most of the taxi drivers who are Asian are as if they have practiced, the two of them are one left and one right, and they can run fast with one person and a suitcase, and their physique and posture do not look like they are driving all year round, but like they are open all year round.
"Let go of my companions!" The bald mage shouted and pulled a staff from his bosom, which sparked like lightning.
At this time, a chubby old man, also Asian, with a white beard, suddenly came out of the taxi outside the door, and as soon as he came in, he shook the bald mage's hand with a smile on his face and said.
"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding! We're here all year round, so if you don't go, you won't go. ”
"But you also know that there are no serious taxis in Gotham, you should take those little gangster cars, you might as well take ours, we have a serious street, and you can find someone if something goes wrong."
"You, who are you?" The bald mage didn't understand what they were saying.
"We are the 'Red Gang' in Chinatown over Golden Beach, a Chinese gangster, we are responsible for more than ninety percent of the food ordering and delivery business in the entire Eastern District, with more than 4,000 rental cars and more than 2,000 motorcycles, as well as four large ships, accounting for sixty percent of Gotham's private transportation industry, and our reputation is absolutely guaranteed!"
"I wonder where you're going?" The old man asked with a smile.
"Let's ......" The bald mage was about to say something, but a female mage behind him patted his arm and whispered: "I checked the information before coming, Gotham Cathedral was renovated by Bruce Wayne, he may go there to worship, why don't we go there, or we can set traps in advance." ”
The bald mage was just about to say, "Why don't you just go to the Wayne Group?" He himself reacted, Bruce Wayne must have thought that someone was coming to hunt him down, the base camp could not be unarranged, instead of rushing into the enemy's trap, it was better to find a place to wait for the rabbit.
So he cleared his throat and said to the old man, "We want to go to Gotham Cathedral, but don't try to kill us." ”
"Then you say, what price are you going to offer?"
"Based on the taxi fares in the metropolis, the prices in the two cities should be about the same." The bald mage thought he was clever and came up with a solution.
"Okay, then follow the taxi fare in the metropolis and get in the car."
"Wait, it's okay to get in the car, we'll have to take our own luggage."
"Okay, come on."
The mages got into the car with some trepidation, everyone was tightly squeezing the magic props in their hands, and as soon as the driver moved, they immediately activated the magic, which was the only sense of security they had now.
The journey went smoothly, but just as they were passing through the East End, several cars suddenly stopped, and the magicians were nervous and almost used up the energy in the magic props, but fortunately, they knew that magic was used to save their lives, so they all restrained their movements.
"What's going on?" The bald mage wanted to poke his head out and ask, but the next second, the white-bearded old man sitting next to him pulled him back into the car and pressed him under the saddle.
The bald mage was about to scold, when he heard a few "whoosh" sounds, followed by the sound of the car window being smashed, and after a burst of slang and scolding, a burly white gangster who looked like a door panel came over with a gun.
"Hu, what's the matter with you? Why did you want that car in front of you to leave us? The goods on the car are spilled, can you afford to pay for it? ”
"Heh, old hyena, the entire Eastern District gang is the wildest your truck drives, I'm afraid you didn't turn it over and want to rely on us, right?"
"Don't you want to mess around, if it weren't for your car changing lanes illegally, would we have lost so many goods? No, you have to pay today! Otherwise, no one will want to leave! ”
"Threaten me to see if you have the ability to do it! Fire! ”
"Whoosh whoosh!"
"Bang! Whoosh, bang! Bang! Bang! ”
"Whoa!"
"Get off! The car is going to explode! ”
"Boom!"
"Help!"
