Chapter 11: Someday
In the early morning of the next day, Su Xiao woke up early.
After washing up and putting on the guard's uniform, Su Xiao came to the guard's headquarters.
Before entering the headquarters, he saw a large group of guards coming and going in the headquarters, looking hurried.
"Quick, Lord Oka was killed, this incident alarmed Minister Zuo, and that Lord ordered the whole city to search for the culprit."
Hank commanded a large number of guards with a 'grief' expression, but there was something called ambition in his eyes, as if he was the boss after Oka died.
Su Xiao noticed that there were two guards standing at the entrance of the headquarters, watching all this with cold eyes, those two were the guards who followed Ouka last night, needless to say, the two were definitely Ouka's cronies.
Hank's move may have made the two suspicious, but this is indeed an opportunity, and if it works properly, Hank may also take Oka's place.
The guard team is not a big department, except for Okka, everyone else is just ordinary guards, and Oka is actually just a captain.
As for the position of squad leader, the guards have never had it, not to mention the extra consumption of funds, and Ou Ka will not allow the rights in his hands to be divided, yesterday Su Xiao had already experienced Ou Ka's arrogant character.
The reason why Su Xiao killed Oka was not because the other party put on a boss posture in front of him.
He needs to move up the ranks quickly now, and Oak doesn't die at all.
As for the interior of the palace, Su Xiao didn't know that he didn't want to get involved either.
The simpler the plan, the fewer holes, and he only needed a position that would have access to the king and could climb up quickly.
Tomorrow is the day when the scrap terminal will be burned, and of course the palace will not personally intervene in such a disgraceful matter, but will only send the people below to do it.
Su Xiao investigated that there were two groups of guards in the royal capital, one was the guard team responsible for the security of the royal capital, and the other group was the guard team responsible for guarding the city gate.
Normally, this kind of thing should be left to the guards to operate, but when choosing weapons in the warehouse before, Su Xiao saw a large amount of explosives.
According to the clues in the warehouse, Su Xiao judged that the explosives had just been stored in the warehouse, and as for the use of the explosives, it was self-evident.
If you want to ignite a waste terminal on a large scale, you obviously can't do it by setting fire.
Therefore, Su Xiao needs the position of the head of the guard, and as for whether he can see the king, it depends on his personal actions.
"Hank, what's going on."
Hank, who was commanding everyone, turned his head to look at Su Xiao.
"The boss was assassinated, just last night, these guys actually found out this morning, you came just in time, and immediately go with me to see Minister Zuo."
Su Xiao felt a chill in his heart, seeing Minister Zuo? This Hank may not be well-intentioned, he only became a guard yesterday, this is undoubtedly a trick, do you want him to be a scapegoat? Unlikely.
In his heart, he had already begun to think about how to do Hank, and Su Xiao had a smile on his face.
"Minister Zuo? That kind of big guy wants to summon me? ”
Su Xiao pretended to be puzzled, but his eyes kept on Hank.
"Yes, Minister Zuo wants to see you, and I don't know the specific reason."
Hank looked envious, even a little jealous.
This sudden good news made Su Xiao a little surprised, he had nothing to do with the palace higher-ups, and there was only ...... that could be connected, the letter of recommendation? It seemed that the letter of recommendation was far more important than he thought.
Following Hank through a few blocks, Su Xiao came to a courtyard where a luxurious villa appeared in his sight.
Hank was a little nervous and stepped forward in a restrained manner, but two guards guarding the gate stopped Hank.
"This is the person the adults want to meet?"
Hank nodded hurriedly, and the two guards took away Hank's weapons, as for Su Xiao, all his weapons were in the storage space, and it was impossible for the guards to find them.
The guards led the way, and Su Xiao came to a hall.
There was a family eating breakfast in the hall, and an old man with white hair and a serious face sat at the top.
When the old man saw Hank, he casually threw down the food in his hand and motioned for the others to stand back, leaving only a sturdy man standing behind the old man.
The sturdy man gave Su Xiao an extremely dangerous feeling, although the other party was barehanded, Su Xiao noticed the thick calluses on the opponent's fist bones, as well as the flattened fist bones.
This is a master of physical arts, the old man's personal guard.
"Your name is Hank, is this the new guard?"
The old man spoke slowly and calmly, and he was the kind of person who was in a high position.
"Yes, yes, sir."
Hank began to speak with great effort and urgency.
"Go down."
The old man may have been a little dissatisfied with Hank's nervousness, and he didn't look at Hank at all.
Hank lowered his head and retreated to the door, before disappearing from Su Xiao's sight.
"I am the Left Minister of the Kingdom, and Carlos has given me a lot of interesting collections, and you, as his nephew, should have taken care of them.
Unfortunately, Carlos didn't go out of town yesterday, my collection was also empty, and I couldn't find him, of course I had to find his nephew, which is you. ”
Su Xiao guessed the general situation of the matter.
Carlos is the black marketeer he killed yesterday, after Carlos's death, the 'offering' of the left minister failed, and when Carlos could not be found, the left minister came to Su Xiao to replace him.
The black marketeer was really unlucky, not only to be exploited by the guards, but also to worship the left minister.
Looking at the current situation, the other party wants him to buy goods instead of Carlos.
Su Xiao didn't know about the transaction between the two parties, if it weren't for the protection of the other party, Su Xiao would have controlled this minister of Zuo a long time ago.
But this kind of opportunity to contact the high-level of the kingdom is also rare.
"There is no problem with the collection, I know all about my uncle's channels, he was seriously injured yesterday and is recuperating, but ......."
Minister Zuo raised his eyebrows, looked at Su Xiao squarely and said:
"I can get the collection I need, and the conditions are up to you, I heard that your captain died yesterday, and the matter is done, I will let you be the captain of the guard."
Half an hour later, Su Xiao left Minister Zuo's courtyard and strolled through the streets.
Things went quite smoothly, but the conditions proposed by Minister Zuo gave Su Xiao a little headache.
Not only that, but after Minister Zuo put forward the conditions, a new mission appeared in the Reincarnation Paradise at the same time.
[Trigger Side Quest: The Left Minister's Collection]
The collection of the Left Chancellor

Mission Description: Minister Zuo's collection is very rich, and all valuable collections will be favored by this greedy old guy
Mission Info: Kill the owner of Mount Colpo and obtain its teeth. (Master of Mount Corpo: A ferocious beast of the Pirate World, a giant feline.) )
Duration: within 10 hours.
Reward: Captain Leader.
Penalty for failure: Expulsion from the guards and wanted on trumped-up charges.
……。
Su Xiao knew what the owner of Kolpo Mountain was, that huge tiger that almost killed the young Luffy.
With a long sigh, after entering the world of pirates, the opponents he encountered were too strong, which made Su Xiao a little helpless.
One day, he will carry the long knife in his hand and kill all the way, and he will never be as timid as he is now.
But the world of pirates is too dangerous, and he doesn't even have the qualifications to fight hard.
It's still too weak, and you have to learn proper forbearance before you become strong.
The master of Kolbo Mountain is very strong, at least not something that Su Xiao can compete with head-on now, but no matter how strong it is, it is just a beast.
The fact that he can't compete head-on doesn't mean that Su Xiao can't kill that tiger.
(ask for recommendation, collection)
