"I'm not going to leave my companions alone and go to Victoria to curb ore sickness, I'm a fighter and I know very well what I'm up against."

In the living room late at night, Froststar's attitude was extremely firm.

Xia Feng opened his mouth, but he couldn't say anything, yes, he couldn't refute it.

Just imagine, if his Victorian companions were fighting against a strong enemy, how could he run to a foreign land alone in order to survive.

Xia Feng's eyes were a little dim.

"Froststar, your companion hasn't come yet, you can think again, if you change your mind, everyone from me and Black Feather is always welcome to you."

"I appreciate your kindness, but this matter doesn't need to be considered, I must go back to Ursas to make a decision."

Xia Feng knew that if history was normal, Froststar would not die until at least 1096 in the Terra calendar, and as for the aftermath, he didn't know.

However, because of his existence, the trajectory of the entire history has now been changed into a mess by a chain reaction, and the direction of fate of all the people he has met, even those he has not met, has become unknown.

.........

I don't know how long it took, but the light came out of the window.

The first night of the prison break ended peacefully.

Darkrope poked her head out of her room, made sure she was safe, and then tiptoed to the bathroom to wash up.

She said as she brushed her teeth.

"Hey, that's... What's your name? ”

Xia Feng sat up from the sofa and moved his body.

"My name is Xia Feng."

"Okay Boss Xia, now that it's dawn, I think we need to talk about the cost."

"What cost?"

Darkrope pointed at him with a toothbrush.

"Of course it's a mental damage, big brother, I didn't plan to escape from prison, and now that I'm implicated by you, I've become a wanted felon."

"Didn't you say you wanted to go to Victoria with me?"

Dark Suo's face was happy.

"Huh? You agreed to take me back to Victoria? ”

Xia Feng walked to the dining table and looked at the dish that Miss Nian fried last night, and said casually.

"After the matter at Longmen is settled, you can go back to Victoria with me, but you have to listen to me when you get to Victoria."

Darkrope grinned and waved his hand.

"Hehe, when I get to Victoria, I can listen to you, but I can't lose a penny of my big house and money, oh yes, and medical treatment."

Xia Feng showed a chuckle, secretly asking this girl to never suffer, fine, if it is replaced by a turtle, as long as there is something delicious, maybe she will be sold and still laugh and help others count the money.

The summer breeze beckoned to the dark rope.

"Girl, come here, I'll ask you something."

"Wait a minute."

Dark Suo quickly brushed his toothbrush and sat down next to Xia Feng.

"What's the matter?"

Xia Feng recalled his previous experience.

"Darkrope, do you know an old man named the Rat King in the slum?"

Secretly stunned.

"You mean.... Gray forest? ”

Xia Feng thought about it for a while, and the emperor seemed to have said that the rat man's surname was Lin.

"It should be, what is the way that old man came from? Could it be that he is the head of the neighborhood committee of the slum? ”

Secretly rubbed his chin and thought for a moment.

"Well.... How to say it. ”

"Pretty complicated?"

"It's not complicated, let's put it this way, do you know who has the final say in the realm of Longmen?"

Xia Feng blurted out.

"Wei Yanwu?"

Darkrope held up a finger mysteriously and shook it.

"You're only half right."

"What?"

"Wei Yanwu is the governor of Longmen, and he is indeed the supreme administrator of Longmen, but that is only in the main city."

This is the first time Xia Feng has heard of this statement.

"What do you mean? Isn't the slum part of Longmen's territory? Wei Yanwu can't even take care of it? ”

"No, no, no, of course the slum belongs to Longmen, and Wei Yanwu can also manage it, but well, he doesn't want to take care of it, or rather, someone is better than him, even if it is the Guards Bureau, he will not easily meddle in the affairs of the slum."

Xia Feng probably understood, according to Dark Suo, the Timber Rat King is not just the director of the neighborhood committee, even Wei Yanwu has some scruples, this weight is indeed okay.

But if you think about it, the existence of such people is not unreasonable.

The Dragon Gate is a very complex place, and in a sense, it is not too much to call it the crossroads of the eastern part of the Terra world, and it is not enough for Wei Yanwu alone to develop a mobile city-state to this scale.

Just like when a company goes public, when the accumulated power reaches a bottleneck, more things need to be brought together to expand the whole, pass through the clouds, and step into a higher realm.

This support probably comes from three aspects.

First, political stability, in the case of internal stability, must also ensure good international relations and build a strong city defense army.

Second, economic stability, which requires attracting foreign investment, as well as the capital operation of large families and consortia.

Third, the internal security is stable, the story of the cat and the mouse does not need to be repeated, the cat can only deter those simple mice, the cake of the dragon gate is too fragrant, many experienced professional mice will be rampant with this, at this time, it is necessary to reach a tacit understanding with the cat and even the owner of the cat The rat king to deal with the unruly mice.

The pattern of the dragon gate is too complicated, and organizations like Penguin Logistics are just wandering between the second and third, making money is their top priority, and as for dealing with rats, as long as they don't violate their interests, they don't have the energy to care at all.

And like Victoria's Notting City, the second and third are almost all occupied by Xia Feng alone, he is the "Rat King" and the economic pillar, and maintains a tacit understanding with the army, the mayor only needs to stay in the office and drink tea.

However, with the pattern of Longmen, this kind of dominance cannot be realized, and win-win players from several aspects support each other, and at the same time check and balance each other.

The dark side of the Dragon Gate is in the hands of the Rat King.

The political power of Longmen was in the hands of Wei Yanwu.

And the economic lifeline should be in the hands of a certain business family.

....

After figuring this out, Xia Feng immediately felt that there should be room for relaxation in the relationship between him and Longmen, at least the matter of prison escape should be settled.

However, some means are needed.

....

As he said just now, even the Guards Bureau will not easily meddle in the affairs of the slums, which means that for his escape, it is relatively safe here.

But although the police won't come to arrest him, those men in black won't care about the rat king.

The men in black want to kill him, and the most important thing for him at the moment is to catch the men in black and find out who is behind this transnational assassination.

However, before encountering the man in black, Xia Feng still has conditions to be met.

First, he wants to get in touch with Penguin Logistics.

Second, if he can't get the support of Penguin Logistics, then he must at least get the source stone in the slum, even if it is only one.
