Chapter 155 Flower shop in the twenty-seventh district

"Did you find the murderer?" Leo couldn't help but be stunned after hearing what the city guard officer said.

It turned out that not long ago, the patrolling city guard discovered a suspicious person and was about to ask questions, but the person fled quickly, triggering the city guard to pursue him. Later, the capable person saw that there was no one who could navigate the labyrinth of District 23.

After escaping pursuit in the alley, he directly wounded the city guard guarding the bridge and fled into District 11. Now the city guards in District 23 are cooperating with the city guards in District 11 to search District 11.

This news surprised Leo. He just wanted to track down the murderer today, but when he turned around, the murderer was accidentally discovered by the city guard. This was really an incredible coincidence, but when he thought about it carefully, he felt

There's something weird about this.

Not to mention why the so-called suspicious person wanted to expose himself and usually fled before the city guards came forward to question him. Even if he escaped, he should have fled to the 35th District on the other side. Because there is an airship docking point there, and at least 100 people would be there every day.

There are more than five airships parked there. With his ability to easily injure the bridge guard, grabbing an airship shouldn't be a big problem. As long as he gets on the airship, he can escape from the city and flee to other lake towns.

There is no need to hide around the city like now.

Leo, who was suspicious, thought for a moment, couldn't help but smile, and thought to himself: "This Marek is really cunning!"

Leo was very sure that the so-called suspicious person was Marek pretending to be, and he was following Leo's advice to keep the series of accidents caused by this murder away from him.

The reason why Marek chose District 11 as a hiding place for pseudo-suspicious people is mainly because of the special nature of District 11. Almost all the properties in District 11 have one or more nobles behind them. Without the permission of these nobles,

Under such circumstances, the city guards would never dare to search in these noble properties. And even if they are allowed, their search intensity will not be very strong. Therefore, even if there is a truly suspicious person, the city guards want to search from the eleventh district.

It's almost impossible to find out.

But now, because it was the city guards who discovered the suspicious person, and some low-level city guard officers were eager to make contributions, the Security Bureau has taken over the case from Marek, which means that Marek has completely

was freed from this case.

In addition, it is impossible for the nobles who are used to fighting openly and secretly every day to see what happened to the death of the Novitsky family heir. However, adhering to the tradition that does not exist without evidence, they will not be concerned about it.

any investigation into the matter.

But now because the internal fighting of your Nowitzki family has affected the interests of all nobles, then this matter will inevitably encounter resistance from various nobles, and even the Nowitzki family will become the target of attack by some nobles. Although as a

The second-ranking family, the Nowitzki family, has strong strength, but it cannot withstand the siege of the other eight lower-class noble families, so the Nowitzki family will definitely start to quell this matter.

In this case, the series of incidents caused by the death of the Nowitzki family heir will soon calm down. Even if Marek's actions are discovered, he will not be punished. However, his cunning approach will not be punished.

He might be appreciated by the nobles here and maybe get some support.

However, while trying to figure this out, another question popped up in Leo's mind: Did Marek come up with this method?

It wasn't that Leo underestimated Marek's intelligence. From his brief exchange with Marek, he could tell that Marek was a down-to-earth person who did practical things. As long as someone could come up with a plan for him, he would do it.

He was able to execute it perfectly. But his wit was lacking, otherwise it would have been impossible for him to fail to see the true cause of death of the nobleman. Leo had to remind him to think of it.

What is happening now seems very simple. It is just pretending to be a person to attract the city guards and break into District 11. However, the person who made this plan must consider the form of District 11, the thoughts of the nobles and other details.

Therefore, the wisdom and insight required are definitely not possessed by Marek, the director of the Security Bureau who climbed up from the bottom.

"Peter Alcott!" The shadow of the thin young man suddenly appeared in Leo's mind.

After already thinking about what happened in District 11, Leo didn't think much about this issue. With the Alcott family's friend and relative card, he easily passed through the tightly guarded urban bridge and started from there according to the original plan.

District 11 goes to the flower shop in District 27.

When passing through District 11, he looked at the city guards patrolling the streets and the shops and clubs in the city. As he expected, these city guards only dared to patrol the streets and did not dare to act like they were in the area.

As in other urban areas, enter the buildings of certain shops and clubs to search.

However, compared with the tight security when entering District 11 from other urban areas, it is obviously much more relaxed when entering other urban areas from District 11. It can even be said that there is no defense at all, just go directly.

It seems that the city guard chief responsible for the security of District 11 also has some cleverness. He deliberately created this gap in the intensity of inspections, probably because he wanted to make the suspicious person who broke into District 11 leave District 11, as long as he was not in District 11.

If the district commits a crime, he has no responsibility whatsoever.

After entering the 27th District, you can easily tell from the surrounding houses, paved streets and the clothes of the people on the road that the prosperity here is far higher than that in the 23rd District.

In addition, in order to cater to the nobles who came here to play, the city manager also designated some areas in the city and built some gardens to provide rest. Although these gardens did not plant expensive flowers, they planted some cheap plants suitable for growing here.

, but as far as the infrastructure of the garden is concerned, among the nearly 100 districts in the outer city, only the 11th and 27th districts have been set up, which makes this district unique.

The flower shop that Leo wants to go to is easy to find. The largest and tallest building in the entire city is where the flower shop is located. This is the largest and most luxurious gold sales house in the 27th District. It has everything from accommodation to food, from entertainment to shopping.

As long as you have money, you can buy all the products of the Silver Moon Lake Alliance here, and even some contraband items.

However, these are not the most fascinating things. The most fascinating thing is the casino and entertainment venue in the flower shop. In the casino, there are hundreds of different gambling methods. Every day, people become rich overnight, and some people become rich overnight.

People can lose their fortune overnight, and almost all the popular gambling methods in Ten Towns and Silvermoon City originate from this.

As for the Huanchang, it is a place where countless men and women are confused. You can find all kinds of men and women here, and even some wonderful species can be found here. And the mask night held every month is even more carnival.

Many nobles will also attend the celebration in person, and it is rumored that some wizards from the Silvermoon City Wizards Association can't help but come here to have fun.

The reputation of the flower shop in District 27 is not only famous in the town of Seventh Lake, but also has a high reputation in the entire Silver Moon Lake District Alliance. It has even become one of the criteria for classifying the status of high-level nobles and low-level nobles.

For the sake of face and status, young nobles will book a suite here for the year. If their status is not enough, even if they have money, they will not be able to rent a room here for a long time.

The benefits contained in such a famous gold sales den are naturally huge. Some good people have calculated that the daily revenue of the flower shop is probably the total business volume of the other outer urban areas of Qihushang Town, and it is the same month.

sum.

However, such a huge benefit is placed in front of everyone, but no one dares to touch it, because the people standing behind this gold-selling den are not only people from the Alcott family of Ten Towns, but also members of the Wizards Association.

All ten chiefs are involved, even if they just have a name.

With such a profound background, no one dared to pay even their own business taxes, let alone making trouble. Fortunately, the person in charge of the flower shop did not go too far, and the taxes that should be paid were not reduced at all, and what he paid

Most of the tax money is used for the two institutions of city guards and security guards, so some people jokingly call the city guards and guards the employees of the flower shop.

As for what the outside world said, the city guards and security guards of Seventh Lake Town did not think so much. They knew the importance of flower shop tax revenue, so they also attached great importance to the security around the flower shop. They set up three city guards around the flower shop.

The health center and three security bureaus are specifically responsible for the security and cases in this area, which is enough to show how much they attach importance to it.

When Leo came to this very famous building around Silver Moon Lake, he felt that this building looked very familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere before. After analysis by his assistant brain, he realized that this building was very similar to the old earth.

There was a building called the Pentagon in the era, but this building had higher floors, with as many as twenty floors. It was the tallest building in the town of Seventh Lake.

Because of the unique shape of this building, after Leo entered the flower shop, he was not so surprised to see other items similar to the old earth era, such as those called slot machines placed in the corridor.

The mechanical devices, such as the gambling methods in the casino on the first floor, have the imprint of the old earth era everywhere.

Seeing this scene, Leo also vaguely guessed who the mysterious person behind the flower shop was.

"I'm looking for Mr. Witzmir." Leo walked to the reception desk in the front hall and said to a female foreman with compound eyes.

"Excuse me, your name." The female foreman was stunned when she saw Leo. She quickly hid her instinctive disgust for skin color. She lowered her head slightly and found Witsmir's name from the file on the table.

Visitor registration card, asked.

"Leo Dodd."

The head waitress compared the names on the registration card, and then said to the waiters who could not hide their disgust at Leo's complexion: "Take this gentleman to room 159."

Under the leadership of this waiter who deliberately kept a distance, Leo walked through an aisle and stopped next to a simple and luxurious steam elevator. At this time, there were already several aristocratic children waiting for them.

Once there, prepare to take the same elevator.

"The flower shop is getting worse and worse, why are so many people allowed in?" One of the richly dressed nobles looked at Leo with disdain, and moved two steps to the side, fearing that he would be infected with some germs if he got too close.

He complained to his companions.

Leo turned his head and looked at the noble, but said nothing.

Soon the elevator came down, the fence door was opened by the waiter, Leo stepped in, and the movements of the nobles who were about to walk in also stopped. It seemed that they were not prepared to stay in the same room as Leo.

Inside a small elevator.

Just after the waiter asked the nobles and found out that those nobles did not know how to take the elevator, the waiter closed the fence door and moved the lever to the fifteenth floor mark.

When the elevator slowly rose, Leo's eyes suddenly lit up, and he used his psychic skills directly at the noble who had just spoken out, breaking down his mental defense and forcibly extracting a large amount of memory knowledge.

At the moment when his spirit was overwhelmed by the spiritism, the noble instantly fainted and fell to the ground. At the same time, the hidden ancestral state of his body began to manifest uncontrollably. His gorgeous clothes were stretched out by his rapidly expanding body.

Even the spacious corridor was filled with the enlarged body, and in the blink of an eye, the noble turned into a large wild boar covered with fangs and sharp teeth.

The nobleman's fainting and uncontrollable ancestral transformation naturally caused quite a commotion. Leo, who was in the elevator, didn't know exactly how the flower shop staff handled this matter, but he was interested in the impact of necromancy on the spirit.

He could still estimate the damage caused. At least for a month, the noble would not be able to control his ancestral form.

Although the elevator had already risen to the second floor when the nobleman had an accident, the waiter who was responsible for leading the way had a vague feeling that the nobleman's accident might be related to the person next to him who suffered from melanosis, which also made him

My mood became a lot more tense, and my body became a lot stiffer.

"Don't be nervous! I just don't like those nobles very much. I guess you don't like them either!" Leo's figure came from behind the waiter and reached his ears.

Leo's voice seemed to contain a kind of magic power, which caused the resentment that had been squeezed for many years in the heart of the waiter who heard it to burst out, saying: "Those nobles should all deserve to die. They are just a group of greedy beasts. It is most appropriate for them to do so."

The best way to deal with it is to put them on the tables of poor people in the ghetto.”

When the waiter said these words, he immediately felt an unprecedented sense of relief in his heart. But before he could feel this unprecedented sense of ease, the sound of the elevator's bell prompting it to reach the designated floor took him from the relaxed state.

His mind was pulled back, and his body instantly became stiff and his face became extremely ugly. Only at this moment did he realize what he had just said.

"Don't be nervous! Only I know this, and I won't say it out loud." Leo reached out and patted the waiter's stiff shoulder, walked past him, entered the corridor, and then faced the waiter who was still stiff behind him.

The waiter asked: "Aren't you going to lead the way?"

The waiter walked out of the elevator with a gloomy face, lowered his head, led Leo quickly to the room where Witsmir was, knocked on the door for Leo, and waited until someone inside the door asked.
