"Do you understand what I mean? Some people foresaw the difficulty of this matter and also foresaw that it would be impossible to have a result in the end. So from now on, many people began to prepare two routes for themselves. One is to thoroughly investigate
, how it happened, how it developed, and what it eventually evolved into. The other route is you, Wells." The bartender Orch looked at the man, "Many people can do it calmly in these two routes.
They have the right to do so. However, you are the only one who cannot. You can only try your best to find enough evidence to prove that you are clean. Or, you can sort it out in these days and let the people from the association
Understand and convince them that the whole thing is just bad luck for you."
"However, as I said just now, they don't care about luck. There are several people standing there, and either there is conclusive evidence in front of them, or you wear formal clothes, walk to the hanger by yourself, and then hang yourself."
The man Wells drank the warm water in one gulp, got down from the high chair, took out a stack of folded documents from his coat pocket, about dozens of them, and placed them on the counter, "The nearest
Information." After saying that, the man walked towards the door of the pub.
"Hey, Wells." Orch put away the stack of documents and shouted to the man, "If you need help, just ask. Ms. Rachel didn't ask someone to control you immediately, which shows that this matter is currently under control."
There is still room for change. And, as a friend, I sincerely advise you not to have other ideas."
The man turned back and said, "I won't run away, Orchie, don't worry." After saying that, he took a big step and went to get an umbrella from the umbrella basket. After opening it, he disappeared from Orchie's sight in a few steps.
Putting the cup away, Orchi turned around and was about to go to the kitchen. Two other men had already come out of it and stood at the door. "You're doing a good job. I need you to continue doing this and give him your full support."
If you encounter difficulties, you can report it through the association's internal line No. 17, and the corresponding liaison member will help you as soon as possible."
The tall Orchie was like a child in front of the two men who were half a head shorter than him. He looked respectful, and his loudspeaker-like voice completely softened at this time, "This is what I should do.
,Gentlemen."
Before Orch could finish speaking, the two men turned and walked toward the kitchen. Orch knew they would leave via the "dedicated line" and thought about it before shouting: "Dear sir, can I ask what happened?"
?"
One of the men turned back and smiled, "You don't need to know what you shouldn't know. Besides, we are also acting according to orders." After receiving the answer, Orchi was silent for a moment, watching the two disappear behind the secret door of the kitchen, and stood there.
He stayed in place for more than half a minute before starting to clean the accumulated cups.
On the other side, the man Wells held an umbrella and walked on the main circular road alone for most of the circle. After making sure that there was no one behind him, he went to a small alley, turned over his clothes, put them on, and applied it to his face.
These things, roughly transformed into another person, continued to walk for two to three kilometers. He went to the garage to drive a limousine, and then left the city of Ghana and drove to the main large city of the Principality of Innes in this area.
He had been feeling uneasy on the way, and it was only at 11 o'clock in the evening that he could barely see the lights of the city ahead. There were several rental houses in the city, but Wells didn't dare to live in them now. He found a small one under another identity.
Hotel, Wells knew that this was the only way he could spend his time these days.
After taking a bath, Wells poured himself a glass of warm water as usual, sat down at the small desk in his pajamas, and began to sort out all the things that had happened recently. He never remembered how long it had been since the fall began, but the bad situation occurred when
Two and a half weeks ago. At that time, his life was as usual. He went to pubs in various locations at fixed times according to the trajectory to hand over information. According to the agreement negotiated in the communicator, he met with customers to discuss prices and completion time.
. But many things changed quickly after that. Wells recalled carefully at this moment. Afterwards, he took paper and pen, selected three weeks ago as the starting time, and began to record all the things that could be called clues.
Three weeks ago, Wells' life was like that of an ordinary person with a stable job. The main activity every day was to organize the information sent from each city base and send it to the people of the association on time. In addition, he met with customers
, meeting with lower-level middlemen in his area and summarizing some expensive tasks are also part of the day's work.
Considered to be in charge of a geographical area, Wells has more than thirty subordinates and several secretaries to assist him. He handles a large amount of information every day, all about tasks issued by various customers. Handover, tracking and completion.
After filing, a fixed process has been followed by him countless times over the years.
"The first sign of it appeared, probably because of a mission." Wells wrote, "It was sent by a lower-level middleman in the 13th District two days later. I still remember the content of the mission - to protect a noble lady.
For a week, no harm could be done during this period. The commission was very high. Although the so-called noble lady has now been confirmed to be a fake identity, she was not vigilant enough at the time and was interested in three million Yuanhai Commonwealth currency.
In terms of remuneration, after several rounds of review, no obvious loopholes were found, and all were approved. Finally, according to the task requirements, the secondary tasks were positioned and must be taken seriously."
“Because it involved a commission of three million, which was a huge fee,” Wells recalled, “At that time, I got the contact information from the lower-level middleman and wanted to develop this customer, so I contacted him.
In the past, I made an appointment with the client in a restaurant smoothly. Then two days later, at the agreed place, I met a man wearing a dress in this city."
"He was a middle-aged man in his forties. He was very polite and had an aristocratic air. I just recalled carefully that it was definitely not his real face. He had put on makeup before coming here. I didn't notice it at all at the time. It was my problem. The conversation was very
It went well, the other party had no objections to the commission and agreement for the task. However, I asked a question, and it can be seen from the question that the other party must have investigated the association beforehand."
"The other party wants a list of people who can be hired. The reason given is that they want to find people with strong overall strength to protect their lady. They also said that if possible, they can increase the price and hire more people to complete the protection task.
.I did not reject the other party’s request and sent the list to him that day. Soon after, the other party contacted me and told me the names of the three people.”
As he wrote this, Wells rubbed his temples, "I have to say that the other party is very discerning. Even though the list marked each member's level within the association, as long as I have been working for nearly ten years, those three
The overall strength is indeed the best. The price was later negotiated down to 6 million. I originally thought the mission would go smoothly, and I was happy about half of the commission received. Three days later, the mission failed."
"Because this matter has been reported to the association, three powerful members were lost at one time. Not only did the commissions received need to be refunded, but a large deposit also had to be paid as compensation for the failure of the task. According to the established procedures of the association, this
The matter has nothing to do with me at this point. The acceptance of failed tasks has always been handled by other departments of the association. And this kind of thing is not uncommon within the association. If a task is successful, there will be some tasks that fail due to various reasons.
It failed. However, this time it was Master Holden from the association who came to deal with it."
"I think it's because the amount of money involved is quite large and the loss of three powerful members is why Master Holden came out to investigate this matter. In the past, some people deliberately used the mission to set up prepared traps and use high-paying
This is an example of using a commission to defraud compensation, and the association probably believed that it would be the same this time. Because after the mission failed, the other party said that no body was found."
"I thought the matter would end very smoothly in the hands of Master Holden and the team sent by the association to assist Master Holden. But in less than five days,,,"
Wells took a deep breath here, "Actually, contact was lost after two days, and it was determined that he was dead three days later. Not only Master Holden, but also the professional team of six people around him."
"The association attaches so much importance to it, I think, not only because of the death of Master Duan Hall, but also because it takes him as a signal. Someone or an organization wants to take action against the association, or within the association, because of some power transfers in recent times.
, Holden looks too eye-catching." Without writing these words, Wells took up a new piece of paper, "But based on the investigation so far, there is other news that concerns me. Innes
Most of the bounty hunters and mercenaries within the principality were absorbed by the association to form a group, and were given corresponding treatment and benefits, allowing the circle to operate normally like a company. However, there are still some people who did not join the association and chose to
Free status. As early as three weeks ago, two lower-level intermediaries mentioned it to me, and I confirmed it in the past few days."
"Several of these people with free status suddenly disappeared. It may be explained that they were performing some long-term employment tasks, but it is unreasonable that several people are in the same situation. And some of their friends have already
These people can’t be contacted.”
"So I finally came to a conclusion." Wells came up with an idea based on his nearly ten years of work experience and past incidents. "There are other forces involved in the selection of captive farms."
