Chapter 57: The Black Knife Society
Walking to this rather dirty street, the gray-black filth around him was accompanied by a pungent smell, and the dark yellow stench on both sides made Leo frown.
Carefully avoiding foreign objects that he might step on, Leo even regretted not riding a war horse, but once he came, he was safe, and Leo had to endure the disgust in his heart and continue walking.
Finally, after turning a corner, the street in front of me finally brightened a little, and there were seven or eight sturdy men in sight, dressed in gray-red cloth clothes, with a short knife hanging from his waist or a short sword behind his back, and his face was very fierce.
However, beside him, there is also a middle-aged man wearing standard silver plate armor, with a staggered red long sword on his back, which is very majestic, and he is also carrying a slender and delicate silver-plated long sword, showing that his identity is extraordinary, this middle-aged man with a rather serious face, who is it not Baron Walker?
At this time, Baron Walker was also helpless, the Wind Patrol had a partial overlap with their functions, and the other party was obviously more able to speak than himself, so in many cases, it was common for the City Guards to be instructed by the Wind Patrol, although the two were not subordinate and subordinate, and the Wind Patrol had no direct jurisdiction over the City Guards.
Of course, this is the case at this time, the city guards are not like the feudal dynasty in Leo's previous life, they are just garrisons, and in this lion realm kingdom, they also have the function of a security force, even for the gangs in this backstreet, the city guards have enough deterrent power.
"Lord Wind Patrol, this is Pavara, the leader of the Black Knife Society," said Baron Walker, pointing to a dry old man not far away, dressed in coarse linen clothes, with heavy folds on his face, and several large scars on his rough face, which looked very terrifying.
At this time, seeing Baron Walker pointing at him, Pavara was also a little uncomfortable, although his face was very calm, but the unconscious shaking of his fingers and the slightly confused breathing still made Leo see the other party's nervousness.
It's normal, the gang lives in the darkness of the Lion City, barely surviving at the bottom of the forces of all parties, for ordinary people, it is naturally very fierce and unprovoked, but in the face of official violence such as the city guard, there is no threat.
At this time, this Pavara was called here by one of the leaders of the city guards, and there seemed to be a nobleman of higher status beside him, even Pavara, who was quite famous in the back street, was a little worried.
Black Knife Will?
Leo frowned slightly, looking at the old man, although at present, the other party seemed to be just a dry old man, not much different from ordinary citizens, but Leo could still feel the danger of the qi.
"My lord," seeing Baron Walker beckoning, Na Pavara also hurriedly ran over, rubbed his hands and bent down to salute, and tried to glance at it from time to time, but this kind of movement, after the afterglow swept behind Leo to the few imposing lion servants wearing chain mail robes, he also subconsciously shivered, and no longer dared to look around.
This...... Could it be the boss of the Lion Knights?
Pavara became more and more suspicious for a while, as the national knights of the kingdom, the status of the Lion Knights is very transcendent, and the prestige is naturally needless to say, how could he be approached by the people of the Lion Knights?
"This is Count Leo Akmund, the Patrolman of the Kingdom," Baron Walker introduced Leo's identity, which made Pavara feel frightened again, Patrolman, this is a replacement?
Although it is said that Leo's identity has been appointed for a while, the news has only circulated among the high-level members of the kingdom, and for these gangs at the bottom of the kingdom's power, they naturally can't get much timely news, so Pavara was naturally shocked when she heard that the young man in front of her would patrol the wind.
"Honorable Wind Patrol, Pavara salutes you," Pavara said without daring to bend down in the slightest rudeness, "Is there anything I can do for you?"
"Pavara," Leo said, looking at the old man in front of him, "don't be nervous, this envoy has always been kind to people.
This time I came to you, but I asked for some routine consultations, and you just need to answer truthfully. ”
"Honorable Wind Patrolman, Pavara must know everything," Pavara replied in a hurried compliment.
"During this period of time, have you ever seen a large number of refined grains traded in your backstreets?" Leo's question made Pavara wonder a little, refined grains are crops that have been cultivated at a high level, at least the Lion Knights generally enjoy refined grains.
Taking it all year round is very good for delaying one's own aging and maintaining high-intensity training, even many nobles will always have it at home.
"I've never heard of it," Pavara frowned slightly before replying, but as if trying to say something, she didn't speak.
"If you want to say anything, it doesn't hurt to say it directly," Seeing this scene, Leo naturally frowned slightly and said.
"My lord, there are three gangs in the backstreets that control everything in the black market," Pavara said cautiously, "I can only know the voices related to our Black Knife Society, and if it were the other two gangs, we wouldn't have access to them." ”
"Huh?" Leo frowned slightly at Baron Walker beside him.
"The Wind Patrol has made your Excellency unaware," Walker said hurriedly, "At the moment, only the Black Knife Society has a certain amount of kindness towards our city guards, and the Lord told us not to act rashly, and I was worried that the news would leak out, so I only invited Pavara." ”
"Well," Leo nodded, but didn't pursue it further, and continued to ask Pavara, "What about the Glowa Sharpening Stone?"
"It seems that there has been a similar movement," Pavara's face turned slightly again, the Glova Sword Stone was not an ordinary thing, so naturally it would not leak a little bit of news, "I will let my subordinates investigate carefully, and if there is any gain, I will report it immediately." ”
"Has anyone bought a lot of drugs lately?" Leo asked again, frowning slightly.
"This ......," Pavara frowned for a while, "My lord, we gangs, we take some medicine every day, of course, it is normal to sell them to the outside. ”
"I'm talking about some excellent medicines, such as hemostasis and muscle san, Wenxin san, etc., not the ones you usually use. Leo said helplessly.
"Perhaps," said Pavara with a wry smile, "these things, if we don't pay attention to them, we don't know about them. ”
"If you go and find out which families have recently entered the city, the frequency of caravans entering the city has increased, even if it is only one trip, tell me, especially the caravans with nobles in charge. Leo said this to Baron Walker, and then to Pavara again, "You have to use your connections to the best of your ability, to probe the questions I have said, and then find out which nobles have recently had more people in their families, especially those in the vicinity of those places." ”
Leo stretched out his hand and pointed to several relatively tall two-story buildings, these places were not far from the prison, but the view was excellent.
Baron Walker and Pavara naturally responded in unison, and although they had some doubts in their hearts, they still did not open their mouths to ask.
Looking at the performance of the two, Leo was also quite satisfied, turned around and left the back street with Bella and the others, the smell of this place, he was a little unbearable.
"This Patrol Envoy is now resolute," Baron Walker said with a wry smile as he looked at Leo's departing back.
"It's not easy," Pavara shook her head slightly, looking quite surprised, the nobles respected their status, and rarely paid attention to the back streets, and as for coming in person, it was even rarer, this Count Leo was not going to take the usual path.
"My lord, are we going back to the Storm Patrol HQ now?" Bella asked.
"I'll reply," Leo's words made Bella feel a little confused.
"As for you, go to the market and investigate carefully, this time to attack the prison, those people can't be damaged at all," Leo said, "In this case, you must need medicine for injuries, and if you dare to do it in the prison, I'm afraid that your strength is not low."
Ordinary wound medicine is already difficult to work. ”
"We've thought about these too, and we've asked about them afterwards," Bella said with a wry smile, and their Wind Patrol wasn't stupid, "It's a pity that there are quite a few people who have bought high-quality wound medicine."
But there was not a single family that bought a large number of them, a total of twelve families bought, and two noble youths from the knight school also bought. ”
"Give me their information, the sooner the better," Leo said, walking faster, as if some spark had flashed through his mind, as if he had some inspiration.
