Chapter 296: Taking advantage of the situation

Victor didn't want to see the female gorilla at all, so the task was very disgusting for him.

Why do the Purists insist on biting the bat-winged demon? What grudges they have with this inhuman creature, Victor doesn't know.

But the attitude of those guys was off-putting, as if the country belonged to their church and not to the people (which of course it didn't).

The city government of Laketon sought the intervention of the Ministry of Defense and Suppression, probably because they were worried that this group of stubborn religious believers would cause trouble at the meeting.

The worst-case scenario is that Isabel's people will cause a scene in the city hall, and William hopes that Victor can control the situation.

But this is impossible, Victor doesn't think he can deal with that woman.

He has already thought of a way, and he will only say a few words at most. Once the other party really gets angry, he will run away immediately, and then report to William that he has tried his best.

However, the real reality is that the bad situation that Victor and the city government expected was not the worst. The actions of this woman, Isabel, exceeded everyone's expectations.

The next day, Victor arrived at the city hall very early, explained his purpose, and followed the officials in the conference room, waiting for the people from the Northern Holy See.

But it's almost noon, and Isabel's people haven't arrived yet.

When everyone in the conference room thought that the Northern Holy See had given up, bad news came from Silver Road - Rockefeller's office in Recton was blocked by the Holy See.

After receiving the news, the City Hall was extremely surprised. Only then did they realize the reason why Isabel did not come to the meeting as scheduled. The woman actually went to Baiyin Road to cause trouble for the largest trading company in the country.

The officials didn't understand, so Victor finally listened to their instructions and went to Silver Road to investigate the situation.

When he arrived in front of the Rockefeller Company building, he did see those executioners wearing the white gold robes of the Northern Holy See.

The trading company was not sealed. People from the Holy See blocked the outside and confronted the Rockefeller Company's security.

Victor didn't go over immediately. He thought of something very strange.

That night, he and Mike discovered that the Rockefeller Company was connected to the slave trade, and the reason why people from the Northern Holy See came here was probably because they knew about this.

However, only Victor and Mike saw the manifest description at that time, and the evidence was secretly taken away by Victor. Even if the Police Bureau found other clues in the follow-up investigation, it would not be possible from the Police Bureau's position.

Revealed to the Northern Holy See.

So where did these guys get their news?

Victor leaned forward and listened clearly to the conversation between the two parties.

The executor of the Holy See at the front shouted to the security: "You must give an explanation, otherwise the church will not let it go."

The gatekeeper of the trading company retorted: "Your accusations are nonsense and you have no right to enter the company's territory."

At this time, a tall woman walked by the side of the road. When Victor saw her, he stopped instantly.

"Eradicating the threat of vampires is the right and mission given to the church by the White Crown. Your sneaky activities in the dock area have been exposed."

"Things without evidence are just slander, madam... Oh no, Bishop..." A manager from Rockefeller Company walked out from behind the security personnel. He glanced at everyone in the church with indifferent eyes.

"But we got the news." The tall Isabel stared at each other.

"The company has many partners, and they have various competitors... Can you guarantee that your sources are not fabricated?"

The person in charge responded calmly, silencing Isabel.

On the surface, this woman is indeed as William said, as long as she is not drunk, she will not be as impulsive as before.

But this does not mean that her character will change. She just sneered and said to the manager: "It's okay if you don't let me in. I don't want to make things big in a place like Baiyin Road, but

It's different in Port Violet. I can arrange for people to inspect the goods one by one after your ship docks. I'm sure we will find something interesting."

After hearing this, the steward's face suddenly dropped, and he cursed: "Lawless crazy woman! Have you ever thought about the consequences of doing this?"

"All the decisions I make are only responsible to Huiguang and the church..."

"You stubborn fanatics! Use your underdeveloped cerebellum to think carefully about why we want to transport monsters to Renekton. What good will this do to us?"

"You are businessmen. You can sell whatever your customers want. My purpose is to find out who needs these bat-winged demons."

"What kind of idiot would want to buy a creature like that because there aren't enough tombstones in his own backyard?"

The confrontation between the two became more and more tense. In the end, no one could convince the other. Isabel was blocked from entering the trading company's gate. She was about to take people to Port Violet, but the people from the trading company stopped them in turn.

"Don't leave! I will call the police station and the police to arrest you bastards!" the manager of the trading company roared.

This made Isabel very amused.

No... In fact, this is simply Isabel's trap. She just wants to force the people from the trading company to take action, so that she can have a reason to break into the other party's door.

At the critical moment when the two sides were at war with each other, someone suddenly stood up and ruined Isabel's plan.

Victor walked to the middle of the crowd and greeted both parties with a smile.

"Agent No. 99 of the Anti-Suppression Department was entrusted by the Renekton government to mediate the conflict between the two parties."

It's you?

Isabel did not forget Victor's face, and she instantly became serious.

The person in charge didn't know him, but he knew what the Anti-Suppression Department meant, so he thought he was here to help him, and immediately started spitting out the accusations against the Holy See.

"I know what the problems between you are. In fact, they mainly focus on the issue of bat-winged demons." Victor said, "The Northern Holy See hopes to enter the company to investigate your freight shipments."

"Don't believe the words of these fanatical lunatics, Mr. Inspector..." the manager said.

"If your Anti-Suppression Department is shielding criminals, then the church will have to involve the White Crown..." Isabel warned coldly.

Victor knew that the Purists, as the first batch of immigrants, had a special status for the White Crown, which resulted in their religious theocracy being independent of the three powers.

But since Isabel didn't dare to do anything in full view of Baiyin Road, Victor could use her scruples to gain his own interests.

Yes, the reason why he stood up to be the peacemaker against his original intention was because he had an idea.

"We will not protect criminals, Your Majesty Bishop, but you have no right to break into the private building of Rockefeller Trading Company. On the contrary, I came here this time to investigate the trading company on this matter on behalf of the Inspection Bureau."

What?!

The steward's expression suddenly changed and he immediately pushed Victor away: "No... you can't!"

"Of course I can!" Victor grabbed his hand, put his face close to the other person's ear, and whispered, "Because the evidence of your transaction with the Cigar Club is in my hand!"
