Three days have passed since the boxing area was sealed, and Elizabeth still found nothing.
That night, she took her people to Kuezhan Street first because the landmark of the Quan District, "Quanshi Square", was there.
It is a natural boulder shaped like a fist, 31 meters high and 16 meters in circumference. The stone is full of red and has been eroded by the wind. It looks like a huge broken bloody fist, covering the streets and buildings built around the fist stone.
It looks low.
She was only thinking about "The Sword in the Stone", so of course she first saw the fist stone, but it was still just a big stone.
It was the morning of the fourth day of the treasure hunt. It had rained all over the city for several days. It stopped raining today, but the sky was still gray.
Elizabeth came to the Fist Stone Square again and stood in front of this majestic Fist Stone.
Kuangzhan Street is once again in a state of complete lockdown. The dilapidated buildings and shops are all quiet, without the usual bustle and noise. Some Seth security personnel are deployed and patrolling around. They are more careful than in the Xuanyuan District. This place is
Assassins everywhere.
"Miss Elizabeth, it's already the fourth day."
The old nanny has been following you for the past few days. She looks out of place in her nun uniform. "The boxing area cannot always be sealed off. It has caused a lot of economic losses in the past few days. The time given to you by the family is five days. Blockade and treasure hunt."
All."
The old grandma paused and then said: "And you will need to be responsible for this matter."
"I know." Elizabeth muttered, without saying anything more, looking at the fist stone and becoming lost in thought.
Master, Master, where is the treasure...
No, we can no longer rely on luck aimlessly.
The answer should already be in the master's guidance, she needs to find out on her own.
Elizabeth is familiar with the humanities and history of all twenty-nine districts of Flowing Light City, but much of this understanding is limited to books.
The fist area was originally named because of this fist stone.
At the beginning, the Fist District was not what it is now. It was just a new settlement in Flowing Light City, gathering new immigrants and stowaways heading east. But soon, as the master said, names have the power of psychological suggestion.
The fist stone and the fist area all gave a hint.
The fist stone has shaped the temperament of this place, and the name of the fist area has attracted those who are brave and fierce.
By now, the boxing area has already had its own cultural style and regional economy.
If the Xuanyuan District is a place of carnival, the Quan District is a violent area.
There are weapons shops everywhere here, selling all kinds of weapons, and some underground illegal shops also sell firearms.
In the past few days, Elizabeth spent half of her time walking around the streets and wastelands, and the other half at weapon shops... She even visited some underground illegal shops. Apart from making the shopkeepers nervous, she found nothing special.
These stores could have been shut down by the Metropolitan Police Department, but the Metropolitan Police Department refused and said that this would destroy the "ecological balance."
The more she walked around, the more she understood what this was like.
If we really follow the law, the entire boxing area should be swept away, and nine out of ten people should be arrested.
In her heart, she hopes to do a big cleanup, not just in the boxing area, but in the entire city, not just in the streets, but in the entire society.
But now, she can't ask for anything, she just looks around and has more different perceptions.
The Xuanyuan District brought such insights, and the Quan District brought such insights. These were things that could not be brought in the Acropolis Mountain Area, Garden District, Central District and other places. She thought it was necessary for her to visit the streets of all districts in the city.
, maybe this insight is a treasure?
"Elizabeth."
Suddenly, another familiar female voice pulled Elizabeth out of her thoughts.
She looked back and saw that it was Sophia. There were some more Gasboy security personnel in the square, but they did not follow her.
Different from her coat, jeans, and sneakers, Sophia wore a long black waist skirt, jeweled high heels, a brown leather handbag, and gauze gloves on her hands, like a young lady who had just come out of a party.
This is not the style of the boxing area, and it is obviously not intended to respect the culture of the boxing area, "When you go to the boxing stone, you must use your bare hands."
Elizabeth knew that when she was in school, Sophia was also very familiar with the humanities of various districts. This was intentional...
"How's it going? Did you find anything?" Sophia came over with a smile, "I heard it's the last two days."
"Not yet...where are you?" Elizabeth had Seth's intelligence support and knew very well that Sophia was also looking for her these days.
However, they all seem to have a tacit understanding, not to look for the place the other is looking for, but to just send people to follow.
Because there really was a treasure, Seth and Gasboy wouldn't be able to fight in the street like boxers, unless the value of the treasure far exceeded the damage caused by the fight.
She knew that many guys from the Heir Club and people from the Secret Bureau had been here in the past few days.
"I haven't gained anything either. Where did you get this revelation?" Sophia asked jokingly in the tone of an old best friend: "Isn't it possible that everyone has been fooled by you, so that the boxers can see the jokes of us bankers?
"
Some words are said in a joking manner.
Sophia actually did not hide her disappointment and sullenness. Although the boxing area was very large and there were many places that she had not looked for, she no longer felt that there would be anything.
The purpose of Elizabeth's "return" seems to be to torment them from within.
"You're playing a little too big this time." Sophia added, "Aren't you afraid of being demoted? You know I've just been demoted to level three, and now I'm only level six. It's okay, don't worry about me, I've found it
New brain slave."
"Sofia..." Elizabeth frowned, listening to the other party say a cruel thing in a nonchalant tone. She was really unbearable and a little sad.
Sophia, why did you become like this?
Sophia was not like this when she was a child or in middle school, nor was their relationship...
"Oh, by the way, I also have an invitation for you."
Sophia took out an exquisite invitation letter from her handbag, handed it to Elizabeth, and said with a smile:
"Everyone in the club is already here, so let's do something. Let's pool some change, total 30 million, to hold a Transcendent Arena Championship. We have been organizing it for a few days, and it will be played tomorrow night. The specific time is
, the location is all on the invitation.”
Elizabeth didn't really want to accept the invitation, didn't really want to go.
There are various pubs and boxing gyms in the boxing area, which are all underground fighting arenas.
Every day, there are countless bloody boxing matches, unrestricted fights, and extraordinary fights staged here, attracting all kinds of gamblers and audiences, and developing middlemen, boxer managers, champion boxers...
Gambling companies owned by various chaebols even started related legal gambling.
She also heard that there is a "hunting game" for rich people to play here. Some people hire boxers to hunt "wild dog" stowaways, and some go out to hunt them themselves.
This is the regional economy and ecological balance.
This kind of economy has given birth to various gangs, large and small. Under the God of War Gang, the gangs have cultivated all kinds of desperadoes, and they have also shaped the local children here like this since they were young, making the boxing area a complete recruiting ground for all forces.
, a noisy place.
"Elizabeth, you have to think about it." Sophia reminded again, "If you really want to return, return to the bank, return to the heir club, instead of being further marginalized, you should go."
Elizabeth was silent, she really didn't want to compromise with those blood eaters...
However, she suddenly thought of Dagny. Is Dagny willing to be fake with those revelers?
Dagny has her own way, and she has her own way.
For now, the Heir Club's opinion plays a big role in Seth's opinion of her.
"I will be there then." Elizabeth finally spoke.
"Okay." Sophia smiled, "Just come and pick someone. The entry rule is to bring your own boxer. Everyone has made a small bet to compete for the championship."
Elizabeth suddenly couldn't help but get angry, "I don't want to play, just watch."
"Alas." Sophia shook her head, turned and walked away, "I didn't set the rules. The organizer is Harado Yosuke. He likes to make jokes recently. Maybe this is also a joke. Just ask him."
Yosuke Harafuji? Elizabeth is silent, so she knows without asking. Either she won’t go or she will bring a boxer with her.
