"Because we have the same enemy." Kai had already prepared the answer. "204th Street!"
204th Street is the fastest-growing gang in recent years. Not only that, 204th Street is also the gang that has eroded the most territory of the Delana family. Among them, the conflict between Guzman's family and the Delana family is the most acute.
"I assume you want to see Guzman suffer?"
Marigio's eyes flashed when he heard Guzman's name.
Kai knew that he was tempted.
Gangs have their own set of rules, such as not cooperating with the police. No matter how fierce the hatred between two gangs is, they will not use the police to attack each other. Once they do, they will be spurned by all gangs.
But... those are all old almanacs.
With the development of modern society and the accelerating pace of life, many old rules have changed. Gangsters are no exception. But this change is not very good. In the first half of the last century, gangsters still had certain
For example, those mafia gangsters will wear suits and top hats wherever they go, dressing up like extremely gentlemen. Not only that, they are also willing to abide by the rules.
But now?
Making money is the last word. The traditional Italian Mafia is no longer popular nowadays. Today’s young people don’t like the Mafia’s slow way of doing things. The days when the Italian Mafia and the Irish Gang were domineering have long passed.
In the past, times have changed. The end of the Cold War has brought new immigrant groups, and the threat of criminal organizations has tended to spread to globalization in this century. The composition of American gangs has also changed a lot.
To put it simply, with the rise of the black civil rights movement, black gangs began to rise in large numbers. Now, due to the rise of the drug trade, a large number of Hispanic gangs have also caught up.
This led to the gradual decline of the traditional Mafia and Irish gangs.
Frederick Thrasher, the pioneer of gang research, pointed out in "Gangs: A Study of the 1313 Gang in Chicago" that the root of the emergence of criminal organizations lies in "social disorder caused by economic instability." As he said, in black street gangs
In this world, just like what Wu-Tang Clan sang in "C.R.E.A.": "Money rules everything."
Compared with European immigrants, the black group will self-emphasize their cultural isolation from mainstream American society because of their marginal economic status and political powerlessness. Few black gangs are willing to interfere with economic activities and government officials outside the community.
On the relationship. To what extent is this closedness? From the 1970s to the 1980s, some members of the "Crips" (one of the most famous black gangs in Los Angeles, opposed to the "Bloods") who went to prison
, and also use Swahili to communicate with each other.
This has also led to more black youths eventually turning into gangs. It is also for these reasons that black gangs have begun to move towards the mainstream in the United States today. And black people have no disdain for the so-called honors and rules respected by white society.
At first glance, they may even think it is cliché and hypocritical.
The organized crime of old immigrants such as the Irish, Jews, Italians and Chinese is no longer what it used to be. In the final analysis, as the old immigrants integrate into mainstream society and their class status improves, the social role of gangs is becoming insignificant.
.
Under such circumstances, the approach adhered to by the Delana family is completely outdated.
Marigio obviously understood this, and he also thought about making changes. He originally wanted to break the tradition and bring Chapra into the family and make him a senior member of the family. This was his attempt.
However, his enlightened reform had not yet seen results, as he mistook undercover agents for talents and ended before it even started.
But it can also be seen from this that Marigio is not the kind of person to follow the rules.
"Then how do I know if you will use the scavenger to deal with me?" Marigio was moved.
Of course he was moved. Although the Delana family has recovered its strength under his leadership over the years, it is still not qualified to deal with Guzman and the 204th Street behind Guzman. It would be good to use the police to deal with them.
But he still had concerns.
That is, he also worked with scavengers.
Kai didn't say anything, just looked at it with a smile.
Marigio curled his lips: "It seems that you are not sincere."
"Whatever you want, you have to take risks. In a sense, I am helping you get rid of Guzman. You can't just think about taking advantage. How can you not take any risks? You can do it now
Let’s bet on whether there is any evidence left on that ghost scavenger.”
"Hey, it seems you are begging me!" Hearing Kai's strong words, Marigio laughed angrily.
"No, no, how can I, a policeman, beg a gang leader? I'm just giving you a chance. You don't have to give me what I want, but that will make me very unhappy. I don't have big ideas, so since you give me
If I'm not happy, then I can only make you miserable. You don't want me and the entire West District Police Department to keep an eye on you, right? Even if you are smart enough and have no flaws, what about your little brother? I have all the policemen in the police station working around the clock.
I have been watching your little brother since childhood, even if he spits on the ground, I will have them caught and detained directly!"
Kai never deals with criminals, he only uses his own methods to get what he wants.
Are gangs afraid of the police?
Of course they are afraid. If nothing else, as long as the police keep an eye on them 24 hours a day, how can they do business?
However, this strategy is also a lose-lose for the police, after all, they pay taxes!
Of course, it won't be easy for the police if you do this.
But relatively speaking, the gangsters will suffer more losses. After all, if the police go too far, they will be scolded at most, but they will really lose money!
Marigio originally planned to get some benefits from the police, at least get a promise or something like that, but obviously, the police officer from the major crimes unit opposite did not want to give him this opportunity.
"Hey..." Marigio immediately said in a heroic tone: "I don't know who the scavenger is, but I know that a man named Tony is his agent. If you find him, you can find the scavenger."
"Thank you. By the way, please pray that they don't have your evidence, otherwise you will go to jail again."
After speaking, Kai took Chapu and walked out.
When Chap stood up, he glanced at Marigio and wanted to say something.
When he betrayed Marigio, he was actually not having a good time himself. Undercover agents are human beings too, how can they not have any feelings at all? Marigio really had nothing to say to Chap, and others even planned to make him the second boss. It was clear that he was
He was groomed as his heir, but he was dishonest and sold him back.
Chapu came from a grassroots background, and he still valued the loyalty of these brothers. However, his identity as a police officer was more important to him.
But even so, after Marigio was imprisoned, he did not send anyone to cause trouble for him, and even after he was released from prison, he did not cause trouble for him.
To say that Marigio was afraid of Chap's identity as police officer is complete nonsense.
After all, for someone like Marigio, it's not that difficult to quietly kill a small policeman.
So Chap always felt that he not only owed Marigio, but also owed him a favor.
On the contrary, Maliggio never looked at Chapu and treated him as if he didn't exist.
"Let's go...Chap, remember you are a policeman." Kai could feel Chap's struggle, but didn't say much. He just patted him on the shoulder to remind him.
