Chapter 537 Jungle Bar (Da Zhang asks for a monthly pass)

"It's okay to tell you," Norbeck thought for a moment, then said slowly, "Our client is Thorne."

"Thorn?"

He Ao frowned.

It wasn't among any of the names Jace remembered.

"'Introducer' Thorne,"

Now that he said it, Norbeck no longer concealed it, and this is not important information.
"He is responsible for receiving tasks from big shots and entrusting them to us. Those big shots don't trust us, the low-level workers, so they will find these people to entrust them on their behalf. Thorne will take part of the final commission as his own. 'Referral fee'."

"A career like 'middleman'?"

Ho asked softly.

It seems that the mysterious person did not contact the detective agency directly, but used some people to pass the news.

"It can be assumed that there are many such middlemen in Wittland,"

In order to delay time, Norbeck didn't mind giving He Ao the basic knowledge of the underground world.

"Most of them worked in gangs when they were young, and after accumulating a certain reputation and getting in touch with everyone, they began to work as middlemen.

"There are also some intermediaries who will take their own apprentices, let them take over their positions, and let these apprentices protect their children by the way, but this is rare, most intermediaries will find ways to send their children to study, let them become doctors, lawyers, Or get into a big consortium and let them stay away from our blood-licking profession."

"'Thorn' is Vetland's best 'middleman'?"

Howard continued to ask.

Being able to receive the mission from the mysterious person and being trusted by the mysterious person, Thorne's status should not be low.

"It doesn't count,"

Norbeck shook his head, "Although Thorne is very powerful, he can only be regarded as the best intermediary in the West District at best, and the best intermediary in the entire Wetland is the 'pharmacist' Haixi from the Jungle Bar, who can receive it from the Jungle Bar. The people on the mission are, without exception, well-known figures in the entire Wetland."

It seems that Wetland's underground world has a clear circle.

Unlike the consortium in Dawn City who directly contacted gangs and even directly supported gangs to control the underground world, Wittland's consortium obviously cherished feathers more. They contacted underground gangs through the profession of intermediary to prevent themselves from being involved in scandals of gang fights.

And different levels of intermediaries distinguish different levels of underground circles. When the consortium wants to find someone to do something, it only needs to find an intermediary in the corresponding circle.

This method can naturally distinguish the consortium and the upper class from the risks, but the consequence is that the consortium has little direct control over the underground world.

In order to protect their own authority, the intermediary will definitely not allow the emergence of a large gang like Chenxi City that can dominate the entire city.

Therefore, Vitland's underground world may be even more chaotic than Dawn City.

Without a large force, it means that it is impossible to gather wealth that can influence the city council, which in turn stabilizes the consortium's rule in Wetland City.

The city maintains a chaotic yet stable balance.

He Ao quickly figured out the key points behind Norbeck's speech, and then brought the topic back, "So the secret medicine you gave me was given to you by Sorin?"

He slowly moved half a step towards the door.

"Yes."

Norbeck nodded slightly.

At the same time, he motions for those around him to further surround Ho-oh.

He knew that he and He Ao probably couldn't talk for a long time.

He Ao didn't seem to be aware of the movement of the people around him, but continued to ask, "So, did he give you the C-level secret medicine after 'The Giving Man'?"

"No,"

Norbeck shook his head directly, "But in order to let me stabilize you, he once told me the name of one of the C-level talent sequences corresponding to the Buscher."

"What is it?"

Howe watched him.

"Talent Sequence 108: Missionary."

Norbeck suddenly opened his hanging palm.

The moment his voice fell, the sound of exploding gunshots and bursting laser cannons sounded at the same time.

The guns used by these people are not as powerful as the Gauss guns of the mercenaries, but they are also enhanced pistols specially aimed at extraordinary people, and can also cause damage to D-level.

And those tiny laser cannons can cause fatal damage to D-class if they hit the vital point.

The prosthetic bodies of these people also seem to be good prosthetic bodies close to D-class.

Norbeck knew very well that he couldn't delay He Ao's words, so instead of letting He Ao leave by himself to cause a fight, it's better to make a move while attracting He Ao's attention to increase the odds of winning.

At this moment, he finally stopped hesitating.

When the surrounding men shot, a flexible dagger that had been hidden in his sleeve slipped out and fell into his palm.

In such a short time, at such a fast speed, and with laser cannons mixed in, it is impossible to escape only by relying on the physical fitness of the "Giving Man" who is still seriously injured.

Even if 'Jess' dodges some attacks, he will inevitably be hit by others, all he needs is to rush up to make up the knife.

He swung the dagger in his hand, the bullet hit the ground and made a roaring sound, splashing stones and faint smoke filled the air.

At this time, Norbeck rushed forward, ready to take He Ao's life directly while He Ao was injured.

Although I don't know why the client asked for a high price of 1000 million, but it seems that this 1000 million is the easiest 1000 million he has ever earned.

The flying smoke and dust briefly covered the place where He Ao was standing, and also briefly covered Norbeck's vision. Behind the smoke and dust, there were bursts of slight sharp objects entering the flesh, metal tearing, and heavy objects falling to the ground. sound.

Norbeck sensed something was wrong and wanted to pull back, but it was too late at this moment, a sharp object appeared in front of his chest, and the sharp blade instantly pierced his chest and sank into his heart.

"It seems,"

The dense smoke dissipated quickly, and He Ao's figure stood in front of Norbeck. He lowered his head slightly, and put it in Norbeck's ear, and said with a gentle smile, "Your client didn't tell you that last night In the end what happened."

Then he slowly pulled out the dagger that pierced Norbeck's heart, and a little green blood splashed out, and a new color was smeared on the already dry and bright red clothes.

The blood-stained sharp dagger spun around in He Ao's palm, wiping away the blood, like a blooming bright flower.

He turned his head and looked behind him, the thick smoke slowly dissipated, revealing the scene behind the smoke.

Holding a gun, wide-eyed, with an unbelievable expression on his face, the burly man with his neck cut, and the broken mechanical prosthetic body flashing with lightning, they are mixed together, covering the rare blank space in this office area.

Blood soaked the glowing wires.

At this time, the bracelet on Norbeck's hand slowly lit up, and it was a message from a person named Thorn.

[The client's person will be here soon. ]
A ray of brilliance flowed from the end of the sky, and the bright fish-belly white covered the city skyline.

Dawn has come.

He Ao turned around, stepped over the pool of blood on the ground, slowly opened the door, and left the detective agency.

He sat back in his car and started autopilot, "Eve, help me retrieve Thorn's information."

"OK,"

The little girl in the white skirt appeared on the car screen, "I have retrieved the information of 'Introducer' Thorne, and I am confirming her address. I have confirmed two public addresses for her. Do I need to set the destination to one of them? ?”

At the same time, Thorne's profile began to appear on the windshield of the vehicle.

"Need not,"

He Ao glanced at the document on the windshield. Most of the content contained in it was the introduction of Thorne, who said that this person was reliable and kept secret, and he was the best middleman in the entire West District. There was no particularly critical information.

He withdrew his gaze and leaned back on the driver's seat, "Help me navigate to the 'Dense Forest Bar'."

"Ok!"

The little girl on the screen slowly disappeared and turned into a navigation interface.

As the vehicle moved forward, the signboard of Norbeck Detective Agency gradually disappeared in the rearview image.

It is naturally impossible for Norbeck to guess when He Ao will go to the detective agency by himself, so someone should have reminded him and told him that after meeting He Ao, he must hold or kill He Ao, and told him the bonus.

And this person is most likely the middleman Thorne, and Thorne's news comes from the mysterious person.

In fact, there is a high probability that the mysterious man never thought of giving Norbeck the 1000 million bounty. After last night, he should have an understanding of He Ao's strength. He Ao is not something Norbeck can kill.

The reason why the mysterious person set this price for this impossible thing is very simple. Through the huge reward, Norbeck's greed is stimulated, so that they will brazenly deal with He Ao even if they cannot use their resourcefulness to hold He Ao back. Howe attacks.

It would take some time for He Ao to finish them off anyway, so they delayed He Ao's footsteps for the mysterious man.

The mysterious people didn't care about their lives, they just used their lives to achieve their own goals, just like they used Jess's life to exchange for high rewards for themselves.

And since the mysterious person had guessed that He Ao might go to the detective agency, he must have made preparations for the detective agency to leak the secret.

As soon as they got the news that He Ao went to the detective agency, they should have sent someone to 'protect' Thorne, waiting for He Ao to throw himself into the trap.

So now is not the best time to go to Thorne.

However, to a large extent, the mysterious man still deduced He Ao's behavior according to Jess's kind and innocent behavior habits in the past.

These people who are now rushing to the detective agency may have been guarding Jess's house last night.

Because according to the original thinking logic of Jess, even if Jess has doubts about the detective agency, he will not confront the detective agency immediately. When people are confused or desperate, the first thing they think of is going home.

So the mysterious person should have arranged the large forces near Jess's home, and at the same time let the detective agency keep sending messages to test He Ao's location.

As a result, their people waited all night in vain, and then He Ao appeared downstairs of the detective agency without warning.

This unexpected action made them lose the opportunity, and when they got the news and rushed over, He Ao had already dealt with Norbeck and left.

However, He Ao guessed that after being unable to contact Norbeck, the mysterious person should have sent most of the people who rushed over to Thorne, so that He Ao could cause harm to He Ao when He Ao went to look for Thorne. Advantages of rolling.

The enemy this time is probably not as simple as a C-level and a mercenary squad.

It's a pity that Howe didn't go to Thorne's place.

The silver-gray car drove towards the dawn.

--10 minutes later--

boom--

A man with brown curly hair and wearing a black combat uniform slammed open the door of Norbeck Detective Agency.

"Boss, how is the situation?"

With the loud sound of the door banging against the wall, a short man followed the brown-haired man into the office.

"The target may be stronger than we expected. Judging from the astonished expressions on these people's faces, they should have been killed in a single encounter. They didn't have any reaction time at all, and the killing was almost at the extreme It was completed in a short period of time, causing no one else to react."

The brown-haired man knelt down and touched the solidified blood on the ground, "He shouldn't have been away for long."

"Boss, do you want to chase?"

The short man glanced around, bent down, and asked quickly.

"Since these people are all dead, the target probably got the information he wanted, and Thorne has been exposed."

The brown-haired man walked to the tissue paper on the desk next to him, pulled out a tissue paper, and wiped the blood stained on his fingers, "Did everyone else go to Thorne's place?"

"They'll be here soon."

The short man glanced at the bracelet on his hand.

"The navigation system of the target car is very good, and it is very good at taking trails. It is too late for us to chase him now,"

The brown-haired man clapped his hands and walked towards the opened door, "But the target obviously wants to know the truth, let's go, let's go to Thorn's place, and give the target a 'surprise' when the time comes."

-

The Jungle Bar, as the most influential middleman in the Underground World of Vitland, the bar of 'Pharmacist' Haixi, is not located in the chaotic West District, but in the North Vitland District, the oldest district of Vitland City.

In the earliest Vitland City, there was only the North Vitland District. It was not until the continuous expansion later that there were other areas.

Now, the North Witland District is still the most important district of Witland, where the entire city government, the city council, and the prestigious universities of Witland in the Federation are located here.

The Jungle Bar is located on the southern border of the North Vitland District. Going west from here is the chaotic West District, and going east is the Saint-Root District where the headquarters of major consortiums gather.

In the entire Wittland, there is only one middleman who dares to choose the station here.

When the car crossed the border between West End and North Witland, Howo seemed to have crossed a line between shabby and prosperous.

On one side is a pile of dilapidated and decaying old buildings. Dirty streets run through it, and homeless people in gray old clothes can be seen everywhere looking through trash cans.

On the other side is a neat and clean terraced high-rise villa with a small garden, and the flat roads cleaned by automatic robots are neatly criss-crossed.

Although these two areas are close together and there is no barrier in space, they look like two different worlds.

The only thing that connects these two areas is a huge advertisement played on the huge screens on the tall buildings on both sides at the same time.

It was a fast-paced ad clip filled with speech clips from a man who appeared to be in his 50s and dressed in crisp business suits.

He kept repeating words such as "better jobs", "more benefits" and "broader employment", and finally the advertisement ended with a quick self-introduction,

"I'm Ned Berry, and I'm committed to making life better for all Wetlanders."

In the lower right corner is the person's personal website, and the words [Please vote for Ned Berry, Wetland Senatorial Election].

It's time for the Senate election again.

He Ao touched the coat on his body, and looked away.

He had just bought this coat from a dangerous-looking store that looked like a gang stronghold on the road.

That shop was not as dangerous as it appeared on the surface, and the shop assistants were very friendly and enthusiastic, especially after seeing the blood on He Ao's body that hadn't completely dried up, and seeing He Ao's gentle smile, the shop assistants trembled with excitement.

The prices of the products in the store are also very affordable. After He Ao chose the coat, these shop assistants wanted to give it to He Ao directly, but He Ao politely refused.

He Ao replaced the blood-stained coat with this coat. The length of this coat was just enough to cover the blood on He Ao's body when he stood up.

In addition, He Ao also bought an oversized suitcase.

"The destination has arrived and is automatically parking for you."

Howard raised his head and looked forward.

The first thing that caught his eyes was a tall staircase, and then a gate made of two towering trees. There was a signboard made of green leaves and lights on the door.
[Dense Forest Bar]
It was almost noon now, and there was no one in the bar.

He Ao opened the door and got off the car, opened the trunk, picked up the suitcase in the trunk with one hand, and walked towards the gate of the bar with the suitcase.

　Later, I felt a little uncomfortable and had a headache all the time, and it got better in the afternoon.

push a rich woman's book,
Vera, the author of "I Invented at Hogwarts", writes words every day.

After Rigg joined Hogwarts, the pressure came to Azkaban.

When Voldemort escaped, he was knocked down by a super electromagnetic gun from Harry Potter.

"Rig, this is much better than a wand!"
