Chapter 63 Cruel Angel Action Plan
After finishing the extermination work of the "Giant Thorn Demon Tree", the Phantom Troupe took a boat across the lake. When crossing the city gate, they directly took the convenient route of the "human queue". The difference from the "non-human queue" did not require strict inspection. .
"Mikul, thank you for your hard work." He showed his pass and while speaking, Victor stuffed two Orens into the palms of the city guards without leaving any trace.
The cold coins made the guard "Mikul" raise the corners of his mouth, and rubbed his chin covered with green stubble with his fingertips. "It turns out to be the respectable Mr. Victor, welcome back!" He glanced at the quite full cloth bag, "Congratulations, it seems that today's harvest is also very rich."
After saying that, he waved to let him go, and he also nodded and smiled at Angoulin behind Victor, but the girl ignored him and followed the boy's footsteps silently.
"Captain, why do you give him a bribe every time you enter? It shouldn't matter if you don't. Our passes are issued by the city guard, so he doesn't dare to make things difficult."
"But he's pretty nice, isn't he? Two Orens make him not even look at what we are carrying, and he speaks nicely.
Every day before leaving town, I heard him shout, ‘Have a nice day! gentlemen. ’ When I came back, I heard him say, ‘You have worked hard and the harvest is so rich! ’ Isn’t that great? What’s the problem? "
The girl looked around, took a few steps closer to the leader, and whispered expressionlessly: "I want to kill this person."
His pupils were slightly dilated, and Victor was a little surprised, because Angouleme was not joking at all, but he was serious about getting rid of the guard, physically, irreversibly and forever.
"what is the reason?"
"Intuition, a strong sense of disgust."
Victor did not immediately reject this absurd reason, because Angouleme's intuition had saved them countless times. If the girl said that, then there must be her reasons. Take a closer look at the expressionless Angouleme. , the young man noticed the gloom in her eyes.
"The look in his eyes when he looked at me was wrong. He doesn't dare to do it now, but he will do it if he has the chance. And he must have done it many times before. The smell of scum cannot fool me."
Smells like scum? Blinking his eyes...it can make a girl like Angouleme, who needs to be strengthened with moral education, reveal a crime that she obviously hates. It probably won't be robbery or murder. Thinking of the bad experiences of the girl in the past, Victor stopped. Ask.
After thinking about it, he remembered the rumors he had heard. This might also be a good opportunity to hone the members of the group, so he said: "Give you two weeks to investigate how many bad things he has done, but you can't let people clearly realize that you are Investigate him.
Then based on the information, you plan how to get rid of him and how to avoid the sequelae involving the Phantom Troupe. Submit a report to me after completion. I will judge whether the plan can be implemented.
Let me see your learning results during this time! "
Angoulin's expression was dull. He was surprised that the young man was suddenly so talkative this time. The girl originally planned to tell the leader her true thoughts, but she expected to be stopped. He had already thought of the reasons, which was to prohibit indiscriminate killing and to abide by the rules. Category.
"Then what if I haven't investigated his problem for half a month?" she asked.
"Don't think too complicated. We are rangers, not judges. It is enough to confirm his guilt without absolute evidence. With his professional appearance of collecting money, I don't think your intuition will fail.
I’ll set up a reward for you, including investigation and planning. If the whole thing is done well enough, the reading time in the morning will be halved in the future. But if nothing can be found, or the plan is poorly done, don’t complain about reading in the future. Too long. "
After making this condition, Victor felt fulfilled and gratified when he saw Noruto gearing up and showing confidence.
I think it only took me one afternoon when I arrived at the outskirts of the city. With the arcane impact, I could hear a lot of rumors about the various evil deeds committed by the city gate guards.
So if the girl can't get the evidence that "Captain! That bad guy is worth killing" even after half a month, the boy feels that he should first reflect on himself and see if there is anything wrong with the planned education method.
"Then what are you going to do next, Captain?"
"I will go and see what commission the Rose Knight has. They helped us last time. Now that we have time to repay it, of course we have to deal with it as soon as possible. Favors come and go."
"Then I'm going to investigate this guy. Will it affect me if I'm not with you?"
"Don't think too much. As you said, acting alone is also an opportunity for growth. Anyway, after the wanted order is issued, it is impossible for the wandering mage to stay near Vizima.
We have the Scoia'tael outside the city and the Knights inside the city, but they are ignored by the Ram Gang and unknown to the Salamander Gang. After completing the Magic Tree mission, we can build a foundation of mutual trust with the city guards.
To put it bluntly, we are "invincible" in the temple area. Your leader will not do anything beyond his capabilities. You can go through the test with peace of mind. "
During the conversation, he stepped into the city guardhouse and immediately thought of it. Victor stretched out his index finger and pointed at the guard standing in the corner, "And that guy Jesolo is addicted to weed powder. His economic situation will not be very good. There are You can try to use it if necessary.”
Angoulin nodded to remember, "Captain, can you use alchemy to help me make some masks tonight? Ordinary ones that are easy to buy."
"Bad girl, I'm increasingly confident in your success!"
At this point, the two interrupted their conversation because Captain Vincent arrived.
Remember when Lansmit of the Ram Gang mentioned him, he used the word "handsome" to describe this bald, deep nasolabial folds, and prematurely aged captain, with obvious sarcasm.
Civilian Victor felt relieved about the unfriendly relationship between the city guard system and the gangs.
"It's great to see you again, Phantom... Phantom Troupe." Although it was not long since the last meeting, the captain could actually call out the exact name of the mercenary group, which still surprised the boy.
Bowing slightly, Victor said, "Good night, Mr. Vincent. It's a pleasure to see you again and report to you that the task of clearing the 'bloodthirsty plants' has been completed. They are called 'giant thorn magic trees' in the records."
Putting the cloth bag he brought on the table and opening it, "In cooperation with the identification of the logging area manager, Angulan and I have jointly cleared a total of eight magic trees on both sides of the main road. This is the broken magic core of the bloodthirsty plant. We brought it as a proof of reward."
Picking up a cracked and charred magic core and observing it, Captain Vincent laughed loudly, and his belly made the lily emblem on his chest shake and fluctuate. "Well done, you are worthy of being a monster killer recognized by Knight Siegfried, and the 'iron fist' of the hairy bear last week. Your performance is worthy of your resounding reputation."
A few casual words showed that he was not completely ignorant of Victor. The captain of the city guard seemed to be quite capable. I don't know how much secret information about the temple area was contained in his belly.
After praising the boy, he turned to look at the girl, "Angoulême, you did a great job too. I have memorized the name of the Phantom Troupe. You don't have to remind me this time."
Being praised by the captain, Angoulême happily imitated Victor's salute to express his gratitude.
Without keeping the two waiting for long, Vincent neatly wrote the withdrawal slip, stamped it and handed it to Victor. "Four hundred and fifty Orens, fifty Orens is your 'opportunity' refund, which can be cashed in any bank in the city.
Thank you for your hard work, Vizima likes you, and the city guards welcome you."
...
After leaving the guardhouse, Angoulême asked, "Wick, does the fourteen-day investigation period start from today?"
After hesitating for a while, "Let's start tomorrow! Shani will come to my house to read books in the evening, you go back and wait for her, I'll go to the night market in the trade zone to buy some things, and today's dessert will be a honey brick cake."
Thank you for your recommendation votes, collections and comments. Thank you for the reward incentive from the book friends who don't pay after playing.
