Killing is as common as eating and breathing for Claire. The bloody battle when he fled with the orc longjiayotong has made the originally thin slave child accustomed to blood and killing overnight.
After solving the ill intentioned people who followed her, Claire didn't even cover up and hide the body, because there was no need to hide the body in the black street. There were dead people in this lawless place all the time. Robbery, murder, abduction and other crimes filled this dark corner. No one would take time to look at a body on the ground.
He handed it to ten leans, the doorman, and Claire went straight down. Black street is a wonderful place in the free city. Even the security forces in the free city are not interested in taking care of things here. First, black street is located in the lower area and will not threaten the safety of the rich in the upper area. Second, black street will hand over a large amount of filial piety to the security forces every year to ensure its continued existence, This is one of the reasons why black street can exist for a long time in a free city.
The last time the security team focused on searching and arresting in the black street was not long ago. In order to arrest Claire, under the pressure of the upper class giants, the urban security team did not dare to perfunctorily send a large number of personnel to conduct a comprehensive inventory of the black street. In fact, the security team did not need to start at all. After Claire's reward came out, Gangs large and small in the black street have been searched all over the street stimulated by the high amount of money.
Of course, for the nearby residents outside the black street, this is exactly purgatory. Robbery and murder emerge one after another every day, but for some bankrupt and penniless people, black street is also the only place they can live in a free city. According to the regulations in the free city, any bankrupt who cannot pay taxes will be directly beaten as slaves, and escaping into the black street has become the only way for these bankrupt to avoid becoming slaves. Of course, once they come in, they may never step out of the street.
Although black street is such a strange way to exist in the free city, it has become the only place for Claire to integrate into the crowd.
Claire opened the door of a hotel in the underpass. It's only a superficial phenomenon that this store manages drinks. In fact, this hotel is an information trading station. Its owner is finrichmond, a famous gang leader in the black street! He is specially responsible for exploring and selling all kinds of secret intelligence, including market information, information about black street gangs, information about urban security forces, and even some information about the upper part of the free city is occasionally collected by finrichmond.
Although Claire has been living a low-key and almost secluded life in the underground waterway, Claire has not stopped collecting information about the upper area, especially about Phillips, the big slave merchant, and golkate, the champion of the arena.
Once before, Claire had a chance to successfully connect with the largest intelligence trafficker in the black street. Under Claire's heavy money offensive, fenriseman finally determined that Claire was not an undercover of the city security team or other gangs. He gradually relaxed the restrictions and began to supply Claire with all kinds of news.
Intelligence is also an important resource in the free city, but the information is also divided into three, six, nine and so on. At most, some small gang members get some market information in the lower area and insider information between gangs. The information about the big people in the upper area has always been the most difficult to get. After all, the upper area is a place where only dignitaries can enter, Not to mention those people in the black street who might be thrown into the slave market if they were caught out. Even some small nobles and businessmen did not have the opportunity to step into that field.
There is no way for Claire to inquire about the two "intelligence rats". One is one of the three giants of free city. One is the invincible champion in the arena. Any one is a big man who can kill himself as easily as strangling an ant. No matter how much money Claire gives, fenriseman doesn't dare to let people openly collect their intelligence. At best, it's just playing a side ball.
After entering the hotel, Claire suddenly found that the atmosphere in the store today was somewhat different. There were no customers. Even the handyman waiter and bartender did their own things quietly and didn't dare to say anything.
"We don't do business today. Come back every few days." A bartender came up to Claire and said.
"I'm looking for a mouse."
Claire said, and the bartender naturally knew what it meant. For a moment, his face became a little embarrassed: "not today. We don't do business. Go out quickly."
"You're not an internal affairs officer"
"I said there was no business here today. Leave now."
Claire, who has been here several times, is very clear about the rules of fenliseman. On the surface, the bartender and waiter in the hotel are foreign affairs personnel, who are responsible for serving ordinary customers. Foreign affairs personnel are not qualified to receive special customers who want to buy information. At the first time, the foreign affairs personnel must immediately notify the internal affairs personnel to receive. If the foreign affairs personnel receive and make decisions without permission, the end will be very miserable.
Today, Claire felt wrong. When can a foreign affairs officer take charge of the internal affairs officer? Claire didn't want to argue. Since she knew that something had happened here, Claire didn't want to stir up trouble, When he was about to leave, suddenly a man wearing a black dress and a black mask that only showed below his nose came down from the second floor. When the bartender saw the man, he immediately lowered his head and stepped aside like a mouse who saw a cat.
"Are you a visitor to finrichmond?". The man said directly to Claire without looking at the bartender.
"No, I'll leave now"
With that, Claire was ready to run away. It seemed that something big had happened here.
"Please wait!" The man in black dress immediately said, "if you want to buy information, please come here. There are some personnel changes in our store today, but the business still needs to be done as usual."
Claire stopped and hesitated. To be honest, except for fenrisse, who occasionally took the line, Claire was in the same situation as a rootless duckweed in the free city in the black street. There was no contact to help Claire catch up with another intelligence dealer. If you choose to leave now, then the next step must be to completely break the relationship with finrichmond.
Seeing Claire's appearance, the man made an invitation: "don't worry, our host also hopes to know more guests, expand contacts and call our name by the way. As long as you pay enough for the information you want, I guarantee you won't be disappointed."
Claire thought slightly. Judging from the man's words, finrichmond was estimated to have stepped down, and the store had fallen into the hands of another group of intelligence traffickers. But for Claire, it doesn't matter who the intelligence trafficker is, as long as she can help herself get the right information about Philebus and gelkat.
At the invitation of the other party, Claire chose to go upstairs. Even if there was an emergency, Claire was not afraid, because she still had the greatest dependence. The power of that mysterious gem could not be stopped by the urban protection array of the whole free city. The price of using the gem was to spend more time hiding in the waterway to recover her body.
On the second floor, Claire found that the second floor was full of people. On one side, there were men in black dresses and masks, and on the other side, there were the former men of finrichmond, but they all looked uncertain and somewhat frightened. At this time, Claire also noticed that the men in black dress wore a black rose badge on their chest.
In the next second, Claire's eyes were instantly attracted by a woman sitting in the center like the stars and the moon. She was a beautiful woman with an unusually flirtatious and charming look. Her clothes were very exposed. A pair of plump double hills protruded from her chest as if she could open her clothes, but the woman's whole body exuded a suffocating sense of oppression, Although she looks young, her eyes seem to have seen through everything in the world, full of vicissitudes.
"Relax, Mr. missay. We just have a personnel change here today. It doesn't affect our business."
The name of missay is a pseudonym used by Claire. After all, the wanted for Claire has not been revoked so far. Even if the crimes committed by Claire have been revoked, it is impossible to continue to use the original name.
"As long as I can get the information I need, who is the master here has nothing to do with me." Claire immediately indicated her attitude.
The woman played with a gold coin in her hand, looked at Claire with a meaningful smile and said, "then let me introduce myself first. I'm leflen! The owner of black rose! From today on, I will also be the new boss of this intelligence trading station. If your master needs any more information, please continue to enjoy it in the future."
"I said you could get information about the big three of the free city?".
"Of course!" Lefleur replied confidently, "the purpose of black rose is never to disappoint rich customers! As long as you can pay enough price, there is no news we can't get." (to be continued...)
