Chapter 156: A Neighbor's Visit
"Ahhh Hahahaha! ”
Luo Feng's laughter echoed in the secret base in front of the Harpists Alliance, a luxurious three-story villa with sea views in the port area.
This wealthy merchant's mansion now belongs to the Bredero Theater Company, and Luo Feng carried out a second round of plundering of the Harpists' Alliance, the last time he robbed a theater, this time even the old nest of other people.
As for why the Gairos Mansion changed hands and fell into the hands of Luo Feng, there are also some twists and turns.
Mayor Bailana was forced to promise a new Grand Theatre and gift it to the Bredero Theatre in front of the citizens besieging the town hall, but encountered unexpected obstacles when the city council pushed through the bill.
The opposition of the legislators was not strong, and the representatives of the people's opinion also supported it in a unified voice, but the justices stood up and resolutely opposed it, resulting in the bill not being passed.
The justices objected on the grounds that it was unconstitutional to give away public resources to private individuals free of charge, and that as soon as the legislators voted to approve it, Am's public assets would be given away at will, and the country would collapse if they sent them to and from home.
The unconstitutional hat was too big for any councillor to wear, and Mayor Bailana had no choice but to do so.
When the theater could not be delivered, the Bredero troupe refused to act, and the people protested again. The lawmakers attributed the reason for not being able to leave the theater to the Constitution, pretending to voters one by one, "I would like to vote yes, but the law doesn't allow it." The helpless face.
In the end, the pressure from all walks of life on Am's upper and lower levels was concentrated on Mayor Bailana, a veteran politician who was the best at surviving in the cracks, and she found a solution in a wit.
Didn't the Gallos gang that blew up the theater escape? Almost all of the fortunes of the great merchant Gailos were swept away when he fled, but his real estate was kept.
The Galos house had been confiscated by the City Hall, but had not yet been officially registered as a public property of the city of Ascatra, so the mayor and the justices had a political exchange, promising them some benefits that could not be used by outsiders.
The justices made a fair decision in the case of the "Gallos gang bombing": to compensate the Gallos Theater Company for the damage caused by the explosion of the Theater Theater.
The proposal for the construction of the Ample Theatre was also passed quickly, and the Theatre will remain a public asset after completion, and cannot be transferred to Bredero, but will sign a long-term lease with Bredero at a super low price that "beggars in the port area can afford to rent".
Taking into account the constitution and the people's feelings, Mayor Bailana's operation was very exquisite, and the town hall, the council, the justices, the people, and the Bredero troupe were all happy.
Only the alliance of harpists who escaped from Amm licked their wounds in confusion, not knowing why they had suffered this catastrophe, and they were like lost dogs.
At this point, the only righteous force in the city of Ascatra has been driven out of the country, and only the evil forces of the Red Mage, the Shadow Mask, the Entangled Sigil, the Shadow Thief Guild, the Slavers, the Blind Eye Church, the Santarin Society, and the Bredero Troupe are entrenched in the city.
This city, eat jujube pills!
Luo Feng laughed enough, and sat on the luxurious sofa in the main hall on the first floor of the mansion, where there was originally a statue of the goddess Mistra, which has now been renovated into a living room.
"It's called a blessing in disguise, blowing up an old theater, and now the R&D center, the company office building, and the grand theater are all in place. One for three, this wave is not a loss. ”
The plaque "Bredero and Friends Culture and Technology Development Co., Ltd." has been hung on the door of the Galos Mansion, which covers a large area and has a large building area, and is close to the sea, and has a small private dock for goods to buy and ship like the cobbler's workshop, which is a pity to be used only as a theater company.
Luo Feng decided to set the first floor as the company's business premises, and when the R&D center researches the results, cameras, DVDs and projectors can be mass-produced, and a flagship store will be built here for sales.
The team members looked at the captain's rampant face of villain, and secretly rolled their eyes.
Tang Xiaotian couldn't hold back his mouth and said, "Captain, what kind of grudge does the Harpist Alliance have with you?" Why don't you hold on to it, it's not even a pit once, you don't even let go of someone's lair, there are nearly ten human and elven gods in the background, aren't you afraid of the curse coming? ”
"It's okay." Luo Feng waved his hand indifferently and said: "It's not so easy for the gods to interfere in the main material world, besides, it's not so easy for them to find out the truth, I am a faithful believer in the God of Prophecy Safras, and with his old man's protection, the prophecy spell is ineffective for me." It's not that I look down on the medieval-level criminal investigation ability of the harpists, and it's not fun to give them ten or eight years. ”
After that, Luo Feng's expression became serious, and he said to the team members seriously: "Through this matter, you also have to learn a truth, which will be very helpful for you to become an intermediate investigator in the future and conduct independent investigations." ”
Hearing him say this, the team members all held their breath and listened carefully.
"That is, opportunities are always reserved for those who are prepared."
Luo Feng poured chicken soup for the team members decently.
The team members showed puzzled expressions, and Tang Xiaotian said: "Captain, when you say 'prepared', does it mean 'ready to harm good people at any time'?" ”
"You guys, don't always worry about good and evil, except for Io, the three views of the other members of our team are very problematic. Did I beg the harpists to join the league of those two stupid girls with the people from the town hall to come to the door and be cheated by me? They think they're causing me trouble, and I'm used to them? If you don't kill them, you will count me as a person, leaving a line! ”
Luo Feng's tone changed, and he said seriously: "We are the main god investigators, and everything is based on completing the investigation task as the ultimate goal, and this has nothing to do with good or evil." If you don't kick the Harpists League out of Am, sooner or later you'll have to expose yourself as an actor by catching shapeshifters, and even if you can't pit them this time, I'll still pit them out next time I have the chance. ”
The team members thought about it.
"Therefore, the three views are too legitimate for the investigator."
Speaking of this, Luo Feng and Io's ball looked at each other and smiled.
Just as Luo Feng was proudly bragging to the team members, two uninvited guests came to the gate of the mansion, these two people were wearing black leather armor suits with hoods, and they were obviously dressed as Am's shadow thieves.
The two stopped at the gate of the mansion, but the Amm guards guarding the gate did not dare to drive them away, and they refused to even shout and ask.
This is the port area, where the Shadow Thieves' Guild is located.
There are no Amm Guard patrols in the port area, and the security of the area is all the responsibility of the shadow thieves, and if the citizens of Ascatra were asked to vote for the security of the districts in the city, the port district would be ranked second in the city after the administrative districts.
In the port district, the Shadow Thief is the Sheriff, the Shadow Thief is the Tax Collector, and the Shadow Thief is the City Hall!
The guards of the Braidro Mansion are stationed at the City Hall, and they are really nothing more than decorations, they can expel the citizens, but they don't have the guts to provoke the ubiquitous shadow thieves in the port area.
The two shadow thieves who came to the door of the mansion took off their hoods, and the Amber guards guarding the gate recognized one of them, and they were so frightened that they couldn't grasp the spear in their hand, and the spear fell to the ground.
"Go in and report and tell Mr. Braderow that his good neighbor is coming to visit him."
The shadow thief, who had frightened the Amm soldiers, smiled kindly and said slowly.
