I weave my destiny in parallel time and space
Chapter 271 Mafia (page 12)
Unlike Arthur, Char and others who spent quiet time here chatting and discussing retirement life, Britannia was much more chaotic.
As Arthur was taken away by Char, there was no doubt that Arthur was dead in the eyes of all classes in the country.
His passing was like lighting a powder keg, detonating the whole of Britannia.
The conflicts accumulated in this country over the past few decades have also been triggered by the loss of Arthur as a ballast.
People across the country broke out in uprisings one after another. Some ambitious officers also chose to support their troops and wanted to become warlords. There were also some nobles outside who wanted to be independent with their own territories.
For a time, chaos spread everywhere, but Arthur had prepared enough confidence for Mordred to enable him to calm down the chaos in the country in the shortest possible time.
However, his passing also affected many people.
Such as Hart's Valentine family.
With the passing of Hart, the successor of this family is not very good, but at least it can stabilize the family.
And because Arthur attended Hart's funeral at that time, his presence provided solid support for the Valentine family.
But now, this backing collapsed.
The Valentine family is not considered a noble. They can only be regarded as a relatively large violent organization. Even if they will be purged by the new regime in the future, they will still be the last one in line.
But with the death of Arthur, the other families who originally submitted to the Valentine family because they were afraid of Arthur also chose to take advantage of the chaos to attack the Valentine family.
The nights in Casaris, which had been peaceful for many years, became no longer peaceful. The sound of gunfire came one after another, accompanied by the cry of killing.
Under the cover of night, flames shot into the sky, many houses were burned, and some people fled in panic.
A group of people wearing black suits were walking through the alleyway. They all had firearms in their hands and shouted loudly while fighting with another group of people wearing black suits.
"Surround that villa!"
"Don't let that kid get away!"
The villa they were talking about was the most luxurious house in Casaris, and it was also a property owned by the Valentin family. The Valentin family would choose to spend the summer in this house when they were on vacation.
Although they will bring some people with them at this time, it is definitely not as safe as when they were in Sashili. These Mafia forces from other families have obviously grasped this point.
In the villa, Connor's mother Sarah was nervously packing her things, while thirteen-year-old Connor stood helplessly behind her.
He is Hart's great-grandson.
Sarah quickly collected some money, and then looked at Connor.
"Do you have that thing with you?"
"what?"
"Things your father gave you!" she said anxiously.
Connor reacted, quickly pulled the rope hanging around his neck, and pulled out a gold coin made into a necklace from his collar, which was very similar to the gold mark used for trade circulation in the wizarding world.
Seeing that thing, Sarah was slightly relieved, and then she pulled Connor through the villa.
"Mother, what on earth is this? Is it really that important?" Connor couldn't help but ask.
"I'm not sure." Sarah said calmly, "That was something left by your great-grandfather. He left it to your grandfather. Your grandfather left it to your father. Then, your father left it to you.
It's about a secret.
A. The real reason why your great-grandpa was able to go from being an ordinary chef to creating the legend of Malfia’s Sasili. "
"Isn't it because of his ability that Grandpa Zeng was able to create the Valentine family?" Connor said doubtfully.
"It's not just because of his ability." Sarah's voice was low, "It's because of a mysterious existence.
Part of the reason why the Mallard family took action against us this time was because of this thing. "
She took Connor out of the house and took him to the wall behind the house. She handed Connor the money she collected from the house and pointed to the dog tunnel in the corner of the wall.
"Take these things, get out of here, go to Sashili, and find the other elders in the family. They will find justice for you."
Connor reacted and said eagerly, "Mother!"
"I can't get out of this hole, only you can." Sarah said calmly, "They won't kill me, they want me to threaten you and the Valentine family, so as long as you live and are not caught by them Just stay and I’ll be fine.”
Connor seemed to want to say something else, when her mother shouted with an angry look on her face.
"Stop giving me nonsense! There is so much time for you to waste. If you waste another second, we will lose one minute of the possibility of survival!"
Connor seemed to be shocked by Sarah's roar. He bit his lip, and tears gradually accumulated in his eyes.
However, as the heir of the Valentine family, he also had a decisiveness that ordinary people did not have, and he did not hesitate again.
Instead, he turned around and got out of the dog hole.
Sarah watched Connor leave, murmuring with deep eyes.
"Live well, kid."
Not long after he left, Sarah heard the sound of approaching gunfire and the sound of the villa door being blown open.
A slight chill flashed in her eyes, she lifted up her skirt, took off the two firecrackers tied to her legs and feet, took them in her hands, turned around and walked into the villa.
At the same time, Connor also got out of the dog hole, walked through the narrow alleys of the town, and ran towards the port at the risk of his life.
But the group of men in black had obviously anticipated Connor's escape from the villa, and there were also their people nearby.
When Connor was walking through an alleyway, he met a man in black cruising nearby.
After a brief silence, Connor turned around and ran away without any hesitation.
The men in black also reacted and shouted loudly.
"Chase! Chase quickly!"
"The kid is here, the kid is here!"
"Don't let him get away!"
"Stop him, stop him!"
In the surrounding alleyways, shouts and shouts were heard one after another. Connor felt that there were people from all directions in the alleyway. He was leaning against the wall, not knowing where to escape.
Night enveloped the sky, and no stars or moon could be seen, but the firelight soaring into the sky illuminated the alleyway that should have been invisible.
Whether it was because of the flames around him or because of his nervousness, under the firelight, Connor's head was covered with sweat. He could clearly hear the beating of his heart, as if it was about to burst out of his chest.
The stench from the sewers spread wantonly in the narrow alley.
Like the stench of corpses.
Suddenly, he felt someone approaching from one side. He hurriedly went into the alley on one side, but it was a dead end and a high wall blocked him.
He moved several boxes and stacked them against the wall, and turned over them with some difficulty.
But due to lack of strength, he fell heavily to the ground, and his left leg immediately felt a pain.
