Chapter 60: Let the Bullets Fly for a While
"Shura?"
Heaton's fingers tapped lightly on the table top in the conference room, and he groaned.
"The slums didn't come to fruition, did they?"
"That's right." Lan nodded, although he had expected it, he was still a little helpless.
Yesterday's trip to the slums was fruitless, and Lan had to report to Heaton in the council chamber tonight about the discovery of Shura and Shangri-La.
"[Shangri-La] has a very high ability to save his life, so it is very likely to be Shura, but it is difficult to determine whether it is a murderer or an accomplice."
Shangri-La can teleport the user or a designated target to a pre-marked location, so the user of such an excellent life-saving Emperor will not die easily.
However, the above words are Heaton's explanation of Lan, who is familiar with the plot, he clearly knows who the murderer is, but it is useless to know who it is, and there is no way to find their hiding place.
"Gozqi, in the near future, we should pay attention to the XC district and Beicheng district of the imperial capital, and strengthen vigilance, especially for missing children or families with children.
Lan, Shangri-La is hidden, and it is difficult for us to find any clues, but I feel that the murderer and Shura will not come to the imperial capital for no reason, they must have some plan, since they can't find it, just wait for them to jump out. ”
"But those kids—" Lan frowned, and finally nodded.
There is no way to do this, the open gun is easy to dodge and the dark arrow is difficult to defend, the enemy is in the dark, if you want to really prevent the other party from committing another crime, the manpower and resources required are undoubtedly huge.
"Your Majesty, there is one thing, General Nangajid and General Hinhemi are missing from their home." Gozzi on the side suddenly interjected.
"Hehe, didn't they have a general relationship with Ornest before, how could they be mixed with his son again."
When Heaton heard it, he still didn't understand that these two people could suddenly disappear under Gozzi's surveillance, and it could only be the role of [Shangri-La].
"Your Majesty, I'm worried about the Guards..."
"It's okay, with General Najeta, there are no waves.
But this Shura wants to make some small moves in the imperial capital, what, do you want to avenge his father? ”
Obviously, Shura is not such a filial person, and the possibility of revenge is extremely small, but the element of wanting to cause trouble is very great.
"It's okay, let's go back first, Lan, you haven't rested for a day, rest early, there is still work to be completed tomorrow, as for Shura, let the bullets fly for a while."
Heaton was the first to get up from his seat and walk out of the council chamber.
"Oh, by the way, that Oka of the garrison was captured by you? You should wait, Lan, in that case, the position of captain will be vacant first. ”
With that, Heaton continued to walk outside, it was getting late, and there was still no evening workout to complete.
I'm afraid the imperial capital won't be peaceful in the near future.
Heaton felt the wind in his ears, thinking about the people or forces that might be involved.
Shura, of course, needless to say, Shang Pu and other later hound troops don't know how many people there are now.
And what role does that oil merchant play in this?
How do you feel that the rebels are very likely to intervene?
The rebels who wanted to overthrow the Chancellor before cooperated with the Chancellor's son, and Heaton thought about this possibility, how he thought and laughed.
On the other side, Lan left the palace and walked towards his residence in the inner city.
Since the death of the Chancellor, no one has been able to live in the palace except at Heaton's special invitation.
The street lights on both sides of the road were a little dim, and occasionally one seemed to break, making a short stretch of the road dim.
Yesterday he took Leonay around the slums, and until noon today, he found nothing.
He didn't tell Leonay about his true identity, only that his own security team had come to investigate the disappearance of the child.
Leonay was really enthusiastic, and when he heard that it was a big man who came to investigate the case, he was very active in introducing him to which were the long-term residents of the slum and which were the ones who had recently come to the slum.
Why did Your Majesty say that I was in a bit of a hurry to arrest Oka in a hurry?
Oil merchants? Slum?
Lan is not a stupid person, and he can't help but regret it in his heart.
It's not a surprise to arrest Oka now, Oka has only been in office for a long time, and even if the oil merchant bribes, he won't tell him what he wants to do directly.
Under normal development, they will definitely continue to deepen the deal, and only then will the oil merchants' ideas leak out.
And now, when he learns that the umbrella he chose has been arrested because of his bribery, he will inevitably be reined in.
But I've caught it, and it looks like I'm going to talk to the head of XC tomorrow.
Lan thought about his plans for tomorrow, getting closer and closer to his residence.
"Hey, handsome."
?
Lan suddenly seemed to hear a familiar voice.
He turned his head to look at the grass on the side of the road, and for a moment he was a little surprised.
"Why did you get to the inner city!"
Lan looked at Leonay hiding in the grass with a dirty head full of leaves, and was a little incredulous.
"Heh, how can you stop me Uncle Leonai!"
Leonay stood up from the bushes and shook the leaves off her body with a proud expression.
"How long have you been here?" Lan asked suddenly, speaking extremely quickly.
"Half a day... Ah no, just came. Leonai blurted out.
"Okay, I see, come with me."
Lan was a little speechless, knowing it in her heart, and she didn't break her, and changed direction and walked towards the outer city.
He could see at a glance that Leonay must have followed him during the day, sneaking into the inner city, but he couldn't get out.
In recent years, the defense of the inner city, whether it is in or out, has become stricter at Heaton's behest.
Although I don't know how she got in, it's not easy to get out, not to mention what she's wearing.
Just this costume with a large area of exposed skin, even if it is worn by civilians, if you want to enter and exit the inner city normally, this outfit can attract the attention of the guards too much.
The normal way is not good, the small city wall of the inner city will definitely not be able to stop her Leonai, she can easily cross the city wall with the emperor's tools, but the goal is so big during the day, it will definitely not work.
No, Leonai simply found a pit, lay down in it and fell asleep, but as soon as he opened his eyes, he saw an acquaintance.
"What are you secretly following me for?"
"I... I think you're a big shot..."
"You still want to burglary?"
"Don't slander me, I'm not that kind of person, I'm just a little curious, aren't I from the garrison, why did I suddenly turn around the inner city, here are all big people, ah! It seems that the direction just now is the King's Heights, have you just come out of the palace? ”
Leona suddenly screamed, pointing at Lan, his eyes widening as if he had discovered something terrible.
"It's okay, don't pretend, I'm an interior officer, and there's nothing surprising to come out of the palace."
Lan rolled his eyes and explained.
"Interior Officer? It's the first time I've seen such a big official, are you so young, have you already become the official master who everyone says sucks people's blood! ”
This time Leonay was really surprised.
