Starting from the assassination of West Walker VII, to the murder and arson in Duke Street, to the murder and arson in Baihua Street, then to the murder and arson in Honey Alley, and then Mint Candy Street was razed to the ground in an explosion.
All ordinary people have become anxious all day long.
All the mysterious people were extremely shocked.
Because these mysterious people know very well what happened.
‘Nightwatchman’ Jason assassinated Siwok VII because of his ‘treachery’.
Then, he began to retaliate against Prince Ruitai for his previous repeated attacks.
Duke Street, Baihua Street, Honey Alley, and Mint Candy Street are all places where important subordinates of the prince live and gather.
Since receiving the news, the angry prince has smashed several tables.
This is not a guess.
But it was something that some mysterious people peeked into through their ‘extraordinary power’.
In Terte, whether it is Siwok VII or Prince Ruitai, they are the focus of the crowd, and naturally they will be paid attention to all the time - in normal times, such attention will definitely not gain anything.
of.
But, today?
Great harvest!
Peeping at others can not only bring another kind of satisfaction.
It can also bring...
wealth!
Rodney always thought so.
Therefore, he established the "Gray Knight", which was well-known among the mysterious people in Terte.
Although he carries the title of "Knight", his job is to collect and sell information.
Rodney is usually looked down upon by others.
Especially those on the mysterious side, who have always regarded Rodney as a shame.
Some people even ridiculed Rodney for being an alien more than once at a mysterious gathering.
However, whenever something important happens, Rodney's secret address will be breached again.
People are always so contradictory, aren't they?
Rodney, who had already understood this point, did not laugh at it.
After all, these people are his food and clothing parents.
What is there to laugh at about food and clothing parents?
That needs to be treated well.
Make the other person feel at home.
So more people hated Rodney, and more people came to visit Rodney.
Just like today.
Countless mysterious people covered their faces and cautiously arrived at the address where Rodney had just changed for three days - it was Rodney's habit to move every two or three weeks.
Ever since he founded the Gray Knights, Rodney knew he had to do this if he wanted to achieve longevity.
Those who received news from him were ecstatic.
And those who ‘provided’ him with information?
I wish I could kill him.
The kind that shatters bones and scatters ashes.
Therefore, Rodney was more careful than those visitors.
Not only did he cover up his appearance, but he never actually appeared at the 'address' he disclosed.
Therefore, Rodney was very surprised when Taniel came to his door.
Rodney was surprised.
Taniel was even more surprised.
Because the fat man in front of him didn't seem to be the person he was looking for.
'I need to know everything about Terte in more detail.'
‘Including but not limited to the ‘mysterious side’.’
'besides……'
'If you can, find a temporary place to stay, and then help me find a century-old grave soil.'
Taniel took Jason's instructions to heart.
So, he took action immediately.
Turt, Taniel is not familiar.
But it's definitely not unfamiliar.
At least, he still knew where some mysterious people gathered.
‘The Mule and Donkey Inn’.
This is a hotel in the outer city of Terte.
Specially provides services for small businessmen and traveling businessmen who come to Terte to purchase.
Of course, this is superficial.
Secretly, this is a place that provides 'services' to people on the mysterious side - of course, it's not free. You need to spend a certain amount of gold grams before you can find the corresponding services.
Including but not limited to ordinary commissions, hunting commissions, etc.
Naturally, Taniel did not find this place by himself.
But I heard it from Sid and Alpa last night.
The similar strongholds I have heard about are far more than this one.
'Reputable and trustworthy.'
But Elpa's evaluation made Taniel choose this place.
Just as Alpa described, after spending a certain amount of money in the 'Mule and Donkey Inn', Taniel got the address in front of him.
Being fooled?
Taniel thought subconsciously.
But then he shook his head, Sid, Alpa would definitely not lie to him.
There was no need for the people at the Mule and Donkey Inn to lie to him.
The person in front of him should be someone who can help him fulfill Jason's instructions.
only……
It's really a bit too sloppy.
Taniel looked at the fat man in pajamas with oil stains on his chest, concern flashed in his eyes.
Come in first."
"If you don't want more people to know that you are coming to see me."
Rodney guessed something.
Rodney naturally knew what he looked like.
But, to Rodney, it didn't matter.
This is usually the case.
This is also the case now.
However, this 'intelligence dealer' who had already put on weight, had a bald head, and was holding a donut in his hand felt helpless in his heart.
Because he knew trouble was coming.
This is not a published ‘address’.
But the real ‘address’,
There is only one person who knows his real address.
And it is absolutely impossible for this person to betray him.
Then there is only one possibility left.
He has already been monitored.
The other party already knew where he was, but they didn't choose to touch him.
Because, the timing is not right.
Because, his value should be reflected in better times.
For example: now.
Thinking back on what happened from last night to now, Rodney held back and didn't let himself sigh.
Went into the room.
The room itself is not big, and the randomly discarded clothes, snacks, etc. make the room more and more messy.
Taniel had to tiptoe carefully to stand at the corner of the sofa, which seemed to be a relatively clean place - because there was a corner as a shield, the place was not occupied by snack bags.
"Sit anywhere."
Rodney didn't seem to notice Taniel's embarrassment and just waved his fat hand.
"No."
Tanier shook his head and expressed his refusal.
"random."
Rodney didn't force it. After swallowing the donut in his hand, he raised his hand again and took out a croissant from the brown paper bag on the side, with a cheese cream filling.
After taking a bite, the white juice burst out.
A sweet fragrance immediately appeared in the room.
"Want to try it?"
“The best of the corner ‘Sweet Coco Bakery’.”
"I queued up to buy it before dawn."
Rodney was very enthusiastic.
Taniel did not refuse this time.
'Sweets help with thinking and can relieve anxiety. Every time I encounter a problem, I always like to eat something sweet - this is definitely not because I am greedy, but because I want to think.'
The words of his friend Jason echoed in Taniel's ears.
Just like Jason said, he needs sweets to relieve his mood.
Of course, as a 'pharmacist', he could confirm that the croissant sandwich in front of him had no additives.
"Thanks."
Taniel took the croissant, opened his mouth and took a bite.
When the sweet taste bloomed on his taste buds, Taniel's tense mood suddenly relaxed.
"I need a 'safe house' and a century-old grave soil - at least 100g."
"If you add more money, it won't be a problem."
Taniel said this.
Not to mention, he now has hundreds of gold grams given to him by Jason.
At the 'Nightwatch House', they also deposited 2,000 gold grams.
It’s really not worth the money.
However, Taniel found that as he spoke, the fat man in front of him looked at him with a strange look.
"What's wrong?"
Taniel asked.
"fine."
Rodney waved his hand, but his vigilance towards Taniel was further reduced.
He knew that the young man in front of him was not harmful.
On the contrary, the other party should also be a victim.
Treated as a ‘gun’…
No!
It’s ‘bait’!
It was thrown out as 'bait'.
"Safe house, yes."
"There are also grave soils that are hundreds of years old."
"I can give these to you at the lowest price, or even for free - but before that, do you know where this is and who I am?"
Rodney asked.
Taniel frowned immediately when he heard this question.
The teacher at Deer Academy and the second advisor of the Lord Police Department noticed something was wrong from Rodney's expression and behavior.
"This is a place where information is sold."
"You are an intelligence peddler."
Taniel followed the other person and said.
"That's right."
"All correct."
Rodney smiled and nodded, and a double fold immediately appeared on his chin, making his triple chin stand out.
Rodney just touched his three chins and introduced himself with a smile.
"My name is Rodney, and I'm a fortune teller."
"I established an organization called -"
"'Gray Knight'!"
Taniel was shocked.
Rodney!
‘Gray Knight’!
Taniel knew about Rodney and the Gray Knights organization.
Even if you don’t know much.
But I also know that Rodney is ‘careful’.
Knowing Rodney's real address is definitely worth more than 1 gold.
That’s right!
That’s 1 gold gram!
In the 'Mule and Donkey Inn', he purchased this address for 1 gold gram.
At the time I thought it was a bit expensive.
Now?
It’s so cheap!
Rodney, the real address of the ‘Gray Knight’, not to mention 1 gold gram, there are people who are vying for 100 gold grams.
Totally great value.
But such a great value.
It is fatal at this time.
Taniel frowned.
This teacher from Deer Academy and the second advisor of Lord Police Department knew that he might have been tricked again.
Rodney saw Taniel's frown.
"It seems you understand."
"So……"
"Can you tell me your identity?"
The fat man said with a smile, and then looked at Taniel with curiosity.
Rodney is weird until now.
What kind of person would make the mastermind who has been following him for so long close his network?
"Tanil."
Taniel gave his name.
Rodney suddenly jumped up from the sofa.
The fat meat trembled and trembled.
He widened his eyes that were squeezed by his obesity, although even then, it was just a crack.
"If Jason doesn't have another good friend called Taniel, I should be the Taniel you are talking about - not the 'useless pharmacist' Taniel."
"That's 'Pharmacist' Taniel."
"And Jason is a 'Night Watchman', not a 'Bloody Hunter'!"
Taniel emphasized.
"that's not important!"
"What matters is that you show up to me!!"
Rodney began to pace around the sofa.
Taniel had to step aside to prevent him from being knocked to the ground by the fat man.
"Sewerk VII was assassinated! Murders on Duke Street, Baihua Street, Honey Alley, and Mint Candy Street! Sure enough, there is another hidden story!"
Rodney muttered to himself.
"Except Duke Street, what happened to Baihua Street, Honey Alley, and Mint Candy Street?"
Taniel looked stunned.
Ducal Street, Tanier knew.
Where Jason went.
Whatever happens there, Taniel is no exception.
But what happened to Baihua Street, Honey Alley, and Mint Candy Street?
"really!"
"really!"
"The so-called 'blood hunter' is also a 'chess piece' being pushed out - what does that guy want to do?"
Rodney looked at Taniel's reaction and became more and more sure of his guess.
Taniel became even more confused.
"What happened?"
Taniel asked.
"Four level four 'professionals' died on Duke Street."
"A fifth-level 'professional' died in Baihua Street."
"A fifth-level 'professional' died in Honey Alley."
"Thirty first- to third-level 'professionals' died on Mint Candy Street, as well as at least a hundred more 'mysterious people'."
"And them?"
"They are all the subordinates of Prince Ruitai!"
"It's all the power that the prince hides in secret!"
Rodney replied.
Taniel opened his mouth wide and was completely speechless.
He knew just now that things were going to be bad.
But I didn't know it was so bad.
Taniel looked in the direction of the door.
His perception is not enough to detect what is outside, but he is not a fool.
His guess told him that the outside was definitely surrounded.
It's surrounded by layers and layers, and not a single mosquito can fly out.
"If I run now, is it still too late?"
The teacher from Deer Academy and the second advisor of Lord Police Department said.
"What do you think?"
"Always monitor me and close the network at this time."
"We will not hesitate to expose another controlled 'force'."
"Do you think the other party will let you get away safely after paying so much?"
Rodney said, sat back on the sofa, raised his hand again and took out a donut, and said in a comforting tone: "But it doesn't matter, you probably won't die in a short time."
, after all, I need you to threaten Jason to take the blame or do something more dangerous."
"As for me?"
"There is a high probability that you will become the other party's subordinate. You don't need to pay, but you have to work twenty hours a day."
"Of course, it is also possible to be killed directly."
"well."
Having said this, Rodney sighed.
Whether it was death or being contracted, it was difficult for him to accept it.
but now?
Does he have a choice?
No.
unless……
A miracle comes.
But are there any miracles in this world?
No!
Rodney showed a smile that was uglier than crying, and took out a scroll from his arms.
This is his last trump card.
After using it, they will probably die together.
I just don’t know what Taniel thinks?
It doesn't matter to Rodney if he drags his enemies to death.
Kill innocent people?
Rodney couldn't do it.
When Rodney looked at Taniel, he realized that Taniel had held a potion in his hand at some point, with a look of determination in his eyes.
"ha."
Rodney smiled and opened his mouth to say something, but in the end nothing came out.
Taniel?
He looked in the direction of the door without saying a word.
