Arknights is too real, right?

Chapter 695 Hallucination

2 days later.

North Victoria, Gusha City.

After two days of driving in this old-fashioned car, Xia Feng and Weina spent two days and one night arriving at this medium-sized city located in the northern hinterland.

This Gusha City is less than 10 kilometers away from Gudong City, where the Kerang family lived before its demise.

The reason why Xia Feng and Wei Na came to this Gusha City was just to find one person.

Sislo Gur.

This person is not a noble, but in a certain circle, his reputation is even more "household-known" than that of a first-level noble.

[Sislo Chamber of Commerce] is a medium-sized trading firm in Gusha City. It mainly sells various exquisite jewelry and high-end cosmetics. It is very famous in the upper class circles of Gusha City.

However, according to the information investigated by Wei Na, in addition to selling luxuries for rich people such as perfume, the Sislo Chamber of Commerce is also secretly selling a special thing.

This is a blend of plant-based powders.

When ordinary people inhale it, it will produce a strong numbing and hallucinogenic feeling. At the same time, this strange pleasure can easily make people dependent, which is commonly known as addiction.

It is not difficult for Xia Feng to understand the nature of this mixed powder. According to Victoria's laws, the preparation and sale of this kind of thing is expressly prohibited.

However, this [Sisluo Chamber of Commerce] has been selling secretly, and the boss of [Sisluo Chamber of Commerce] is the aforementioned Sisluo Gur.

In this circle, he is known as Mr. Gur.

This addictive substance is called "psychedelic powder" by insiders. Not only does it make people dependent, but long-term inhalation will also cause the body to weaken rapidly and turn it into a walking dead waste.

Therefore, despite the explosion in profits, the Glasgow Gang and Black Feather have never gotten involved in this contraband that is harmful to people and the country.

Of course, the purpose of Xia Feng and Wei Na's trip was not to eliminate harm to the people.

On the outskirts of Gusha City, in an old-fashioned hotel.

There was no heating in the room, just a small stove in the middle.

Wei Na put the information she had found in advance on the table, and placed a wine glass next to it.

"According to the information found by Morgan, Gur himself disappeared two months ago. To be precise, it was the third day after the Krone family was destroyed."

Xia Feng sat on the wooden chair by the window, looking puzzled.

"Why is this Gur missing? This matter should have nothing to do with him."

Vina picked up the wine glass and took a sip.

"It doesn't matter, but the reason why we know it doesn't matter is because we did it. However, others don't think so, especially those who have evil intentions in their hearts."

"Vina, what do you mean?"

Wei Na put down her wine glass and turned the information to the second page.

"Gudong City, where the Kerang family is located, is less than 10 kilometers away from here. It is basically a conjoined city. The Kerang family operates the largest textile factory in Gudong City. As we all know, textiles are not a hugely profitable industry, especially gray fabrics. I investigated before However, in order to maintain production profits, the royal family will also provide a certain level of subsidies to the Krone family every year."

"Then what?"

Wei Na put her information side by side with the investigation report of the Supervision Office and said in a deep voice.

"But according to the investigation results of the Supervisory Office, the Krone family's private property has exceeded 1 billion. This number is enough to produce profits for their textile factory for 100 years."

Speaking of this, combined with Wei Na's previous foreshadowing, Xia Feng seemed to understand the secret.

"Vina, you mean?"

"That's right."

Vina said confidently while filling the wine glass.

"There are no resources available around Gudong City. If the Krone family wants to quickly obtain such a huge wealth, they can only cooperate with the Sislo Chamber of Commerce, use the privileges of the aristocracy to cover up people's eyes and sell hallucinogenic powder. This also explains why the Krone family is After the destruction, the boss of the Heathrow Chamber of Commerce will suddenly disappear."

"He thought his business was exposed, so he ran away in fear!"

"That's right."

Xia Feng understood Wei Na's intention, and it was obvious that the most suitable candidate for the "murderer" had been found.

Preparing and selling "psychedelic powder" is a capital offense, even for a veteran like Gur.

Therefore, Gur had reason to run away because he was afraid that things would be exposed, because the person who died was a noble.

So, in this case, Gur naturally had enough reasons to destroy the Krone family in order to silence him because he was afraid that the matter would be exposed.

As long as a crime has been committed, this kind of thing cannot be explained clearly.

Even if Gur doesn't admit it, it doesn't matter. Vina has evidence that he cooperated with the Krone family to sell hallucinogenic powder, so no matter what, he will bear the blame.

Now Gul has disappeared, but the Sislo Chamber of Commerce has not closed. In other words, Gul probably did not just pack up and leave, but just hid.

Xia Feng remembered that when the young official from the Supervision Office gave him an investigation report, he clearly stated that there were no suspects among the people who had frequent contact with the Krone family before its demise. However, this statement was completely contrary to the results of Wei Na's investigation.

With the ability of the Supervision Office, this should not be difficult to find.

Therefore, Xia Feng speculated that someone in the Supervision Office was also involved in the "psychedelic powder" business. This was the only possibility.

This matter should have nothing to do with Inspector General Kapewamy. With the status and wealth of the Kape family, they should not bother to engage in such things that are harmful to the country.

But thinking of this, Xia Feng seemed to understand why Kapewami insisted on messing with him, and the entire Supervision Office cooperated vigorously.

The concern about Kapelwami's identity as Inspector General was on the one hand, but the more important reason was that as long as the Krone family's destruction case was pinned on his head, the "psychedelic powder" incident would not be exposed.

It seems that not only the big shots who cover the sky with one hand, but also the country's middle class have begun to rot from within.

evening.

Xia Feng wore a peaked cap and walked into a branch of the Chamber of Commerce on the outskirts of the city. The sign at the door was none other than "Sislo Chamber of Commerce".

This store is mainly for retail. Although it bears the sign of the Chamber of Commerce, it is actually a luxury store.

After Xia Feng walked in, a dazzling array of accessories and high-end perfumes came into view. When he walked to the counter, he put his arms on the countertop.

"Boss, bring me a bottle of perfume."

The middle-aged man behind the counter raised his head and looked up and down Xia Feng's outfit.

"What price do you want? Is it a gift?"

"It's a gift. It's a woman in her 20s. Price is not an issue. The smell shouldn't be too strong. Just something low-key and simple."

The boss chuckled. In his opinion, Xia Feng's clothes did not look like a wealthy person.

"Brother, the perfume in my store may be more expensive than you think. Of course, I don't mean to look down on you. I'm afraid that everyone will be embarrassed."

Xia Feng smiled honestly, and then took out his wallet.

"It doesn't matter. When chasing a girl, you have to be willing to spend money. You can't make her feel stingy."

"Heh, that makes sense."

Then, the boss put a bottle of delicate light yellow perfume on the counter in accordance with Xia Feng's request just now.

"Brother, the name of this bottle of perfume is Black Ghost. It has a neutral fragrance. There are several expensive spices in the raw materials. It is a bit dark and a bit intoxicating."

Xia Feng nodded.

"The name is good, how much does it cost?"

"9800."
