Chapter 253 The Archangel of the Slums (for Subscription)
The "street angel" that Claire calls is not just a gangster, but also a grassroots autonomous organization on Patus Street.

Like Musk Justice and Claire Rossi, the residents of Patus Street are mostly lower-middle-class immigrants from the Seablue Kingdom and their descendants.

Most Hailan people attach great importance to family, kinship and traditional culture. Even if they leave their hometowns and live abroad, they seldom follow the local customs and still adhere to their own language, religion and customs. This makes it difficult for Hailan immigrants and their descendants to integrate into the local mainstream society. .

A group of Hailan immigrants came to a foreign country to seek life and settled in a certain neighborhood. Then in the days to come, as long as one member of the immigrant family has a firm foothold, he will try his best to help the fellow villagers and bring those relatives, friends, and even neighbors who live in poverty in their hometown All come over.

Over time, the entire neighborhood became a settlement for Hailan immigrants. The locals either intermarried with the Hailan people and were gradually assimilated, or they simply moved to other neighborhoods so that they would not be neighbors with these foreigners.

This kind of situation is so common in various countries in Vares that there are blocks named after "Sea Blue Street", "Patus Street" or "Little Patus" in every major metropolis - Patus, which is the name of the sea blue kingdom. capital.

As we all know, due to the language and cultural barriers in the neighborhoods where foreign immigrants live together, and the fact that the immigrants are all in groups, gangs are often rampant and mixed with fish and dragons, which brings many public security problems to city managers.

This phenomenon is particularly prominent in Patus Street, where residents generally live in poverty.

The city of Avalon has worked hard to deal with the gang problem on Patus Street, but it has always ended with too much thunder and little rain.

Unless the tens of thousands of sea blue residents in this block are all deported, or forcibly demolished, scattered and migrated to other areas, so that they cannot form a large scale and gather together for warmth, there is no solution to this problem at all.

These two measures are impractical, and the mayor of Avalon simply doesn't care about it. As long as the gang of sea blue guys don't go to other blocks to make troubles, the police will turn a blind eye to the local security incidents.

In this state of absence of law, Patus Street has not completely become lawless. Local residents are still bound by the unwritten order. The organization that replaces the official establishment and maintenance of order is the local gangs, large and small.

On the way to the "Paradise Tavern", out of curiosity, Gao Fei asked Claire about the inside story of "Street Angels", and gained a deeper understanding of the most powerful gang on Patus Street.

The survival and growth of any gang is inseparable from money.

The sources of funds for "street angels" are not special, they are nothing more than collecting protection fees, lending, smuggling, smuggling, selling stolen goods, plus opening casinos and doing flesh and blood business, as well as selling intelligence and acting as bounty hunters and other gray businesses.

But "street angels" are also a gang with a bottom line, and they also lend money. The interest they demand is indeed higher than that of formal channels, but compared with those loan sharks who eat people and don't spit out their bones, they seem very conscientious.

"Street angels" also open brothels and engage in skin and flesh business, but at least on the surface it is forbidden to force girls into prostitution, and the squeeze on street girls is not as cruel as other pimps.

Through these channels, "street angels" have obtained sufficient financial resources, most of which are used to maintain gang operations while also taking care of public affairs.

That's right, gangsters also take care of public affairs on the territory.

Including public security, medical care, education, relief, household registration management, weddings and funerals, and mediation of disputes, these affairs that should have been managed by the civil affairs department are all managed by the "street angel" in the extralegal place of Patus Street. The gang is in charge.

The police may not know what is going on in the street, but the "street angels" can grasp the most comprehensive information at the first time.

Today, the police and the gang on Patus Street are no longer bitter rivals, and there is still a lot of cooperation in private.

Using the influence of "street angels" to manage immigrants has proven to be an effective strategy, although not on the table.

The current "Godfather" of "Street Angels", the big brother who eats both black and white, is Umberto Esposito, nicknamed "Archangel".

Gao Fei noticed that whenever Claire mentioned this gangster brother, he would naturally show admiration from the bottom of his heart, which made him more curious about this "archangel".

After 10 o'clock in the morning, Goofy and Claire brought a... a lion disguised as a poodle to the headquarters of "Street Angels" "Paradise Tavern".

The tavern was noisy, full of drunks and idle street thugs.

In the center of the tavern hall, there is a boxing ring. Two shirtless men are fighting on the ring, surrounded by crowds of spectators.There are also people who set up a gambling game, shouting loudly to attract spectators to place bets.

Goofy followed Claire through the crowd and came to the bar.

"Hi! Brother Umberto, good afternoon!"

Claire greeted a man sitting at the bar with his back turned to her.

The man turned around slowly, raised his glass to Claire, but didn't make a sound.

Gao Fei took the opportunity to look at this "archangel" who had admired his name for a long time, and found that he was younger than he expected, around 25 years old by visual inspection, with a slender figure and well-proportioned muscles, and the scar on his cheek did not spoil his handsome appearance. The almost transparent blond hair was tied into a ponytail, and the unshaven chin was slightly scruffy, and at the same time created a bohemian temperament, a bit like the younger Geralt.

All in all, the first impression of Gao Fei made by this underworld big brother is not bad, I hope he will not be set as a villain.

Gao Fei followed Claire to the bar, quietly opened the astrolabe, and wanted to investigate the details of Umberto Esposito, but the system told him that "it is not yet possible to investigate high-level NPCs."

Gao Fei has encountered a similar situation before. From this, it is not difficult to guess that Umberto will not take action to show his strength in the short term. In order to see his depth clearly.

Umberto seemed to be a silent and introverted person, sitting there playing with his wine glass, silently listening to Claire's explanation of his visit, his thick eyebrows were furrowed, his face showing displeasure.

Then, Umberto turned his head to look at Gao Fei, his sapphire pupils showed a trace of reproach.

"Your name is Musk?"

"Yes, Mr. Esposito."

"From the way you talk and behave, you obviously have a good education. I'll tell you the truth, gangsters are not a good way out for young people. I'll buy you a glass of lemon soda, and then you can go back before your parents lose their temper." go home!"

Umberto said coldly.
