Walking on the streets of Black Marsh City, you can feel that this city has changed a lot overnight.
The originally bustling and abnormally lively crowds have become sparse, and a large number of shops and restaurants have been closed. The damage caused by the previous fanatical crowds is like wounds in the city, exposed to the sun, and no one is cleaning up.
A faint rancid smell can be smelled in many of the quiet buildings on both sides of the road.
Lu Xin can guess what it is.
The insomnia that lasted for more than 20 days had actually caused a large number of deaths in Black Marsh City, which were hidden in their respective families. No one knew about it. Even if the temperature was still low, after such a long time, it began to rot. It was previously covered by the exaggerated temperament of the city, but it was not that obvious anyway. Now that the city has become quiet, it can no longer be hidden.
This makes Lu Xin somewhat uncomfortable. If it were in Qinggang, I'm afraid the cleaning team would have already arrived.
But in Black Marsh City, until now, there has been no sign of cleaning up.
However, this may also be because there are still a large number of people in this city who have not woken up and put in work.
Long-term insomnia makes them sleep with revenge.
"Why go to the Administrative Hall in Satellite City No. 2?"
Lu Xin sat on the tricycle, looking at the scenery on both sides, and asked curiously.
"Don't you know?"
Silver Hair whispered, "Now Master Qun is discussing important matters with those officials. Originally, such a meeting should be held at Main City Administrative Hall, but our Black Marsh City's General Administrative Hall was said to have been bombed by an outside knight, so we had to go to No. 2 Administrative Hall..."
"?"
Lu Xin suddenly reacted and realized deeply that this question should not be asked.
Silver Hair was still talking and talking. "I don't know where the knights came from with such courage. They are simply seeking death..."
"You really think our Black Marsh City is easy to mess with. If you see this, I won't give him a slap..."
"..."
After saying that, he turned to Lu Xin and said, "Do you think so?"
Lu Xin resisted the urge to throw him out of the car and nodded, "Yes."
In theory, today's Black Marsh City is the most disorderly time, but in fact, it is also the quietest time.
The road was smooth and there were very few people. Even the passages from each Satellite City to Main City and other Satellite City were not closed, and the three jumpers could enter and exit freely, so Lu Xin and Silver Hair went from Satellite City No. 3 to Satellite City No. 2 smoothly.
Along the street, we walked all the way towards the Administrative Hall.
When I got close to this Administrative Hall, I immediately discovered that it was even more lively than the steel suspension bridge.
Countless police officers and troops have sealed off the Administrative Hall, which was originally not very important in Black Marsh City. Both ends of the main road at the front and back were blocked by military vehicles. Checkpoints were set up one after another. Sanbengzi was stopped even though he was far away.
"There's a meeting going on inside. No one else is allowed to come near. Please take a detour!"
In the distance, two soldiers holding guns raised their hands and said to Lu Xin and Silver Hair in the car.
Lu Xin was about to step forward and explain that he was not an idler, when he heard Silver Hair shout, "Who are you talking about?"
After finishing speaking, he pointed at Lu Xin and said, "Did you know that this is the son-in-law of the eldest daughter of our Master Qun family?"
"?"
Lu Xin's face suddenly became weird, thinking that it was really hard to say who he was. Besides, although Master Qun was a gangster, when Black Marsh City's top executives gathered together, his name might not be enough to make these people who maintain order give way to him, right?
Unexpectedly, after hearing this, the other party's expression softened and he looked Lu Xin up and down.
Lu Xin was a little surprised that these people really knew Master Qun, when suddenly he saw a person's face turned cold and shouted, "Nonsense."
"Didn't Miss Master Qun's husband already go in?"
"..."
Lu Xin suddenly thought of Gecko and felt a little embarrassed.
Silver Hair was still unconvinced and shouted, "This is a boyfriend, cheating kind of guy, lover, do you understand?"
"Isn't he just a pretty boy?"
The guarding soldier sneered and said, "What's so arrogant about this status?"
"Why can't you be arrogant?"
Silver Hair argued with him unconvinced. "Lovers have deeper feelings, but can they be lovers if they don't have deep feelings?"
Lu Xin reluctantly picked up the black bag, preparing to take the phone to notify Han Bing and the others to come out and pick it up.
Unexpectedly, just as Silver Hair and the guard were shouting, a white car not far away slowly drove over.
When we got close, we had to stop because the three sticks were parked there.
From the front and rear cars, a group of people in black suits got out, lifted up their three bags and moved to the roadside.
The driver kept shouting, "Hey, I haven't paid the fare yet..."
The car door opened, and a young woman wearing a white cheongsam and red high-heeled shoes walked out. She was young, with a graceful figure, her hair tied up, and carrying a small bag with a geometric pattern in her hand. She was escorted by two people holding an umbrella and walked slowly to the guard post.
"Miss Sun."
The two soldiers on guard actually knew this woman. They immediately hugged their guns tightly and stood at attention.
The woman didn't even nod her head. She just glanced at Lu Xin and Silver Hair outside the guard post and said, "Who are they?"
The soldier said, "Said he is the lover of Miss Master Qun's family, and wants to follow him to the meeting."
Lu Xin wants to explain that he is really not a lover.
Silver Hair has already started talking. "What kind of lover? It's a lover with a very good relationship, and you still won't let me go?"
"Lover?"
Miss Sun, who was wearing a white cheongsam, seemed to find it very fresh. She looked Lu Xin up and down and couldn't help but smile.
Then he said, "There shouldn't be many people who dare to pretend to be Master Qun's daughter's lover. It might be true."
"Don't bother, I'll just take them in."
"..."
The soldiers on guard immediately agreed and then divided themselves into two sides.
"The guard is not very thorough in enforcing the regulations..."
Lu Xin has no hope of explaining his identity clearly. No matter what, just go in first.
But I was a little surprised in my heart.
I just had a good rest for a day, is my status as Master Qun already so high?
Not only the soldiers at the sentry station knew about it, but this Miss Sun was also willing to help him bring people in to attend the meeting?
The Miss Sun didn't explain anything, but just looked at Lu Xin curiously, smiled silently, which seemed to have a lot of strange connotations, and then walked forward smoothly. A group of bodyguards following her immediately pushed Lu Xin and Silver Hair aside.
"Is Miss Sun family amazing?"
Silver Hair pressed in a voice that only Lu Xin could hear, and followed unconvinced.
Lu Xin whispered, "What does she do?"
Silver Hair approached him and whispered, "I don't know, but I know that City No. 2 has a pretty big family here, surnamed Sun. It is said that he has a special background in Black Marsh City's army. Look at this woman, the crotch of her skirt can be opened to the creaking hole. If she is so arrogant, she might be Sun family... Oh, no matter, let's go in first, anyway, we have Master Qun covering us, right?"
"With such a thick background, it sounds really impressive..."
"What the hell, can she hear me scolding her behind her back?"
"..."
The two followed Miss Sun family, passed through the two-story temporary guard post, and soon arrived in front of the Satellite City No. 2 Administrative Hall building.
As soon as they entered, they heard loud noises, making it noisy like a vegetable market. You could even hear people yelling, slamming the table, and spitting, which was in sharp contrast to the seriousness and coldness of the soldiers outside.
"The most important thing now is to restore order in the city to avoid causing riots..."
"Food and medicine are the most important. Do you know how many dead people are in the city now?"
"There is no way to reduce the price of medicines. There is always a shortage..."
"Food is the foundation of Black Marsh City, and I don't agree with price reductions..."
"Haha, we have quite a lot of body bags. Do you need some?"
"Stop talking nonsense, can you fight over who will fill the vacancy in the main office like this?"
"..."
Arriving at the end of the corridor, there was a door that was ajar. Miss Sun nodded to the soldier guarding the door, and the bodyguard beside him opened the door. Immediately, the quarrel inside almost broke the roof. Mixed with the smell of cigars, tobacco, and some indescribable hot smell, it almost made the person walking in front of him fall over.
However, after this Miss Sun entered the conference room, it suddenly became much quieter.
Immediately afterwards, many people stood up and greeted the woman in white cheongsam, "Miss Sun."
Miss Sun walked into the conference room first, and the bodyguards around her immediately spread out by the door to protect her safety. Lu Xin and Silver Hair saw that he was blocking the room, so they squeezed in from both sides. Fortunately, these unsmiling bodyguards did not stop them.
"I'm sorry, elders."
The woman in the cheongsam said with a smile, "I slept too deeply this night and woke up a little late. Besides, I am a woman after all and need to put on makeup and choose clothes, so I came here a little late. The elders here shouldn't blame me, right?"
There was a response immediately inside, and someone laughed and said, "No, we are here early..."
Someone else said, "Wait Miss Sun, who dares to complain?"
This Miss Sun came to the long conference table closest to the door, and someone immediately stood up and made way for her.
She sat down and asked with a smile, "Where are we talking about now?"
As soon as the conference room became quiet, a polite-looking man immediately said, "Miss Sun should already know that our Black Marsh City had just been attacked by a knight group. This knight group released a strange virus, which caused some symptoms of insomnia in the whole city. In the end, it even caused a chaos that swept our entire Black Marsh City..."
"However, now that the virus has been eliminated by the expert team coming to support from Qinggang, there is no need to worry."
"It's just that, taking advantage of this chaos, the Knights launched an attack on our General Administrative Hall of Black Marsh City. Now, twenty-two senior officials of the General Administrative Hall, including the chief, have been killed in the attack. The entire order of Black Marsh City has been greatly challenged."
"Now, we are discussing how to restore order to Black Marsh City as soon as possible."
"..."
Listening to his report, Lu Xin was slightly surprised.
rare.
They actually found a reasonable explanation for this matter in such a short period of time, and they were able to justify it.
I don't know if Han Bing has any credit for this.
"That makes sense..."
This Miss Sun listened carefully and said with a smile, "So where is the discussion now?"
The man in a suit put down the document in his hand, smiled, and said, "Originally, the matter was very simple. There was no need to discuss or shirk. According to the emergency regulations of Black Marsh City, No. 2 Administrative Hall can temporarily fill in and this problem can be solved..."
"But I didn't expect that, taking advantage of this chaos, someone would have undue ambitions and want to take advantage of the opportunity to get involved..."
"..."
Miss Sun nodded slightly and said with a smile, "Oh? Who is it?"
The man in the black suit smiled and turned to look.
Before he could speak, he suddenly heard a man's voice, it was Master Qun: "It's me!"
"You don't need to carry a gun and a stick here to talk. I don't care whether you have any regulations or not."
"I just want to ask you, where did you hide when this knights attacked?"
"I helped investigate that!"
"Where did you go when the attack ended and the whole city was in chaos?"
"I brought people to beat them one by one... and persuaded them to go back home."
"..."
On the other side of the conference table, Master Qun stood up and waved his crutch. "Even you, at first, were hiding like cowards and refused to come out. Many of them were caused by me banging on the door and calling them out. Now, you want to kick me out?"
While he was fuming, no one spoke.
After he finished speaking, someone suddenly sneered and said, "The Dalao family still wants to join Administrative Hall..."
"What kind of business do you do, and you don't think anyone knows?"
"..."
When these words came out, many people immediately sneered.
But there was only a "bang" sound, as Master Qun hit the table heavily with his crutch, causing the group of people to lean back slightly in shock.
Then I heard Master Qun shouting loudly, "I don't need you to remind me what kind of business I used to do, and I don't need to tell you what you did in the past in public, right? I want to tell you happily, when I really become the master of Black Marsh City..."
"The first thing I want to do is get rid of all the dirty money I made in the past."
"The second thing is that I will uproot the Black Grass business in Black Marsh City!"
"..."
"Wow..."
The entire conference room was quiet for a while, and then suddenly became like boiling water.
There were "sneers", "sneers", "sneers", "doubts" and other different bubbles, all churning at the same time.
Even Lu Xin was immediately surprised.
Master Qun made his fortune from the Black Grass business, and he is also one of the largest Black Grass dealers in Black Marsh City.
He did play a role in Black Marsh City's Special Pollution Cleanup and in restoring order afterwards.
But in the final analysis, this is also because he was affected by Red Snake's ability.
Now that he is taking this opportunity to ascend to power, Lu Xin is not curious, but what he said...
Even Lu Xin found it a bit incredible.
Out of curiosity, Lu Xin raised his toes slightly and glanced at Master Qun, and saw that he was sitting across the conference table. His eyes were red, and the muscles on his face were abnormally twisted. He looked like an angry lion, and he was in an extremely excited stage.
Is this what happened?
Or did Red Snake strengthen its influence on him and make him make such a decision?
For a moment Lu Xin was a little unsure.
"Black Grass?"
Amidst the sneers, Miss Sun spoke softly, and someone next to her brought her a tea set.
In this noisy chaos, she slowly brewed Kung Fu tea.
Without raising his eyelids, he said softly, "This kind of thing is originally contraband in our Black Marsh City. The crackdown and cleanup of Black Grass is also what we have been doing. One of the tasks is to investigate and arrest those Black Grass profiteers..."
The surrounding noise became quiet when Miss Sun spoke.
Many people looked at Master Qun with sneers.
If you want to pull up the Black Grass business, then you are the big money maker, so how can you pull it off?
"Talking secretly in front of someone is the most annoying thing."
Amidst the laughter, Master Qun looked at Miss Sun who was playing thief in Kung Fu Tea, and said in a low voice, and then he suddenly leaned over, picked up a suitcase from underneath, and slammed it on the table, instantly attracting a circle of attention.
"If you want to put it that way, I am indeed a fisherman."
Master Qun patted the suitcase and said, "What's in this suitcase is the proof."
The surroundings suddenly became chaotic. A group of people were whispering and looking confused, not knowing what he was going to do.
"This box is full of accounts, which not only proves that I am a fisherman."
Master Qun suddenly emphasized his tone, and his eyes turned slightly red. "It can also prove that other people are fishing for money!"
"We Satellite City No. 3 Administrative Hall members, without your nod, could my business be so big and even build a factory? Guard Department members, without your help, how could I open the store like this?"
"Even..."
He suddenly looked at the Miss Sun who was playing Kung Fu Tea, and said coldly, "Without you Sun family nodding, how could my daily goods go in and out of Black Marsh City so smoothly?"
"You say I am a fisherman, how much more benefits do you Sun family eat than me?"
"..."
"Shuashuashua..."
The faces of countless people around him suddenly became angry and distorted.
Everyone he pointed out looked like they were about to start a fight, but when they saw that others were silent, they held back.
It wasn't until the last one, Miss Sun, was clicked that he focused his attention.
Miss Sun's hand that was pouring tea paused slightly for a moment, then continued to brew, and the hot steam slowly rose.
She did not raise her head to look at Master Qun, but just whispered, "You said it is very annoying to say secret words in front of others. Then I would like to know how many people should hate or even oppose a person who suddenly goes crazy and wants to go against the entire Black Marsh City?"
"..."
The conference room became a little quieter.
All the eyes looking at Master Qun became a little sarcastic.
Even Lu Xin felt a terrible pressure in this office.
It was also at this moment that he suddenly figured out a question.
Why do you always dislike this city?
Not because of his Stinky Tofu Braised Meat Sprout Noodles and Saltwater Beer, but because of the temperament of this city.
The entire city has been changed by Black Grass.
Even if the city's pollution has been cleaned up, this temperament itself has extremely terrifying pollution capabilities.
At this time, Master Qun, who showed his intention to fight against the city, felt the pressure of this pollution.
This is the pressure of a city.
At the center of the pressure concentration, Master Qun's chest was like a bellows, and he took a few breaths slowly.
Then, with red eyes and tense muscles on his face, he said seriously, "No matter what the outcome, I will fight to the end!"
"Wow..."
The tide of anger, hatred, and disdain rose so fiercely that it set off several waves in the conference room.
"Are you crazy?"
"For no reason, why are you so crazy here?"
"Don't think that just because you have helped the Qinggang expert team, you can talk nonsense here!"
"..."
"..."
And when the waves surged, a sneer suddenly appeared at the corner of Miss Sun's mouth. He lightly tapped the teapot in front of him with his nails painted with white nail polish, and only heard a few dings. Lu Xin suddenly felt a strange feeling in his heart.
It seemed that his heartstrings trembled violently, and a strange impulse poured into his mind.
I want to kill Master Qun.
A strong and rational thought flooded into my mind.
Intense refers to one's desire to kill Master Qun. It is indescribable, like a thirsty person asking for a drink of water.
Being rational, he did not take action rashly, but instead made a simple and logical plan.
That is to pretend that nothing happened and walked to Master Qun.
Under the cover of his identity, he suddenly shot him in the back of the head while he wasn't paying attention.
So...
Lu Xin's pupils only trembled slightly, and he already understood what happened.
Is this woman hinting at herself?
Is she actually also a person with abilities?
Just now, she heard that she was Master Qun and agreed to bring her in, and she had already formulated this plan. This means that she might have known about Master Qun before she came, and was prepared for her to assassinate Master Qun?
No, maybe she didn't know before that Master Qun was going to cancel Black Marsh City Black Grass's business.
She made this plan just because she knew Master Qun wanted to be in power?
When he was thinking about these things, he saw Silver Hair's eyes were blank, and he was slowly squeezing out of the crowd and approaching Master Qun. It seemed that he was doing everything as usual, but if you look carefully at Silver Hair's eyes that were looking at the ground, you would find that his pupils were slightly dilated and seemed to be a little out of focus. His whole posture was also in an unnatural state, and he was holding the baseball bat tightly.
Was he affected too?
Lu Xin hurriedly walked a few steps and caught up with Silver Hair.
The surroundings were noisy, and no one paid attention to the two of them except for an imperceptible smile on Miss Sun's lips.
It wasn't until he was almost close to Master Qun that Lu Xin saw a thin man sitting behind Master Qun, covered by a figure. He recognized it at a glance. That was Gecko. What's strange is that Red Snake is not around.
If Master Qun was influenced by Red Snake to do this, shouldn't Red Snake keep a very close distance to him at all times?
Without enough time to think about these issues, Lu Xin and Silver Hair approached Master Qun one after another.
Gecko also noticed something was wrong. He immediately raised his head and glanced at them coldly with eagle-like eyes...
... I saw Lu Xin just for a moment, and the cool expression suddenly became dull.
Lu Xin shook his head at him, and then followed Master Qun all the way.
At this time, behind Master Qun, there was also a group of men holding guns standing, and they looked quite powerful.
However, these subordinates seemed to be a little shocked because of Master Qun's proposal, and they were looking at each other and exchanging opinions.
Regarding the proximity of Silver Hair and Lu Xin, I just glanced at them and didn't find anything strange.
When Silver Hair came to Master Qun, he had already tightened his grip on the baseball bat in his hand.
However, he seemed to be seriously considering the power of the baseball bat in his hand, so the next moment, he suddenly threw the baseball bat, pulled out his pistol from the waist of a subordinate next to him, and fired at the back of Master Qun's head.
"Huh?"
Lu Xin was originally thinking about how to deal with the situation at hand, so he didn't stop him.
Seeing him grabbing the gun, I thought it would be easier to deal with the follow-up matters this way, so I waited for him to pull the trigger and then stretched out my hand.
Grab his wrist and lift it up.
"Bang!"
The bullet hit the ceiling, and the whole conference room was in chaos.
Countless people present immediately shrank and tried to hide under the table.
A large number of soldiers and bodyguards heard the gunfire, slammed the door open and rushed into the conference room.
"It's okay."
Lu Xin grabbed Silver Hair's palm, slowly took the gun out of his hand, and threw it on the conference table.
Then he looked down at Master Qun, who was looking over with a frightened expression, and said softly, "The woman across from you wants to kill you."
"It seems you have offended a lot of people."
"But it's okay, I support your decision."
