Mysteries: Arcana Wars
Chapter 238 Discount Price
Although this strong man named Floda Sanders looked very brave when he just attacked, he immediately became obedient and cooperated with the police as soon as he was captured, just like a walkie-talkie. Leonard couldn't help but sigh that if the criminals in the West Velas Field could be half as obedient and sensible as Floda, his work efficiency would be at least one-third higher.
Apart from the fact that the ash brick was an extraordinary item, Froda did not seem to have made any preparations for the assassination, and the entire operation was crude and sloppy. It seemed that Froda was not a professional killer, and this kind of self-destruction attack was something that no experienced person could do. However, the simpler and more brutal the action was, the more confused the cold-faced detective was.
What exactly is he trying to achieve?
Leonard had someone lift up Froda's head. Before conducting the dream and psychic investigation, he was used to conducting a normal interrogation like a detective.
"You're not a professional killer," Leonard said.
Froda looked tall and strong, but he was surprisingly timid. When the interrogator's serious and indifferent face appeared in front of Froda, he immediately opened his mouth and started talking like pouring beans.
"I said, I said..."
Compared to Leonard's official interrogation process of questioning first and then entering a dream, Klein used a more direct method: divination.
No matter whether it was citrine or pure gold star coin, all the divination results proved that this fool was not lying.
As he had confessed, Froda was not a professional killer. On the contrary, he was just an idle hoodlum, not even a resident of the underground city. As a native of Backlund, he owned a small, shabby apartment, but this property could only provide him with a place to live. It could not make him rich overnight, nor could it provide him with a good living environment. If we really talk about the market value, this house is cheaper than the old, shabby house far away from the city center that Geraldine had set her eyes on.
Since the apartment was his grandmother's inheritance, Froda didn't want to just buy it for money. At the same time, due to his limited education, he couldn't find a good job. But Froda was very confident in his potential and thought that those cheaper and lower-level jobs were not worthy of his smart brain. Finally, Froda, who was stuck in the middle, turned his attention to the black market. Of course, with his level of cognition and ability, he couldn't find the dark web black market that was truly the dark side of society. At most, he could barely make a living by taking on some trivial tasks on some dubious websites.
These employment tasks included but were not limited to delivering paper tokens to gangsters, which were then delivered to the base of the employer's rivals, which eventually led to the complete dissolution of the employer's gang. Although the employer's final payment was not received, hush money was received from the employer's rivals;
He helped his employer steal a necklace from his target and ended up encountering a real thief, the Phantom Thief. Finally, the enthusiastic Floda unreservedly lent a hand to the Phantom Thief who pretended to fall, leading to Sivellas capturing the Phantom Thief who had been pursued for a long time on the spot and paying Floda a considerable bonus.
When dumping a body in the Tussock River for his employer, he encountered an underground doctor who was secretly looking for materials to practice with, and the body was bought on the spot;
Four days later, the employer was thrown into the river by the organization because of an accident when he was meeting with Floda, so Floda sold another body to an underground doctor...
It is impossible for me to work, I will never work in this life. I don't know how to run a business, so I can only make a living by doing this kind of work.
Perhaps Froda, like Klein now, was in a state of great confusion:
Why most of your compensation doesn’t come from your employer!
As for the business of assassinating Fors, it may be the most serious job that Froda has ever taken, because it was a job on the [Death List].
Although Leonard jokingly called the Death List, a place with bounties on all kinds of murders, a "market notice board", this platform with a certain scale and stable operation is already considered high-end among Floda's managers.
Froda took on this case just to test the waters. And on the Death List, Fors's bounty was only 100 gold coins.
During this sensitive period, those who wanted to deal with Fors were most likely to deal with the Abraham family. In an absurd way, Fors was once again tied to the Abraham family.
But Klein remembered that someone posted a murder mission at the Cotton Alley Exchange, which required hunting down an ordinary person who was related to Abraham. The reward was 200 gold coins...
The golden star coins continued to jump and gave Klein more answers.
In fact, an experienced professional killer took on some commissions targeting members of the Abraham family. Among them, Fors, who was lying and shot, was lucky enough to be added to the killer's hunting list at the price of 1000 gold coins.
The reward was generous, but the workload was also high. So the killer made a brilliant decision: to assign the work of several targets at a 600% discount. The task of hunting down Fors was then transferred to a new killer along with other targets at a price of gold coins.
The new assassin later discovered that most of these targets were beyond his ability, and they were Abraham's people. Even if they were just ordinary-looking strangers, there was no guarantee that they had some hidden great power. For the sake of safety, he put these commissions back to the [Cotton Lane] exchange. Among them, the assassination mission of Fors was taken over by a seller for 200 gold coins.
The business mind seems to be much more flexible than the previous ones. This seller directly puts a few murder commissions on the [Death List], and there will always be a few unlucky people who will take the task.
For example, this Froda.
Even if Froda really completed the task of assassinating Fors, he would only get 200 gold coins, which was far less than the huge bonus from the task issuer. A handful of gold coins disappeared in this absurd sub-contracting.
...Subcontracting at all levels is really harmful!
However, who was it that issued those assassination missions against Abraham's family in the first place?
Two gold coins, each with a complex star printed on it, were moving across Klein's fingertips. But just as he was about to divine the person behind the scenes, a strong spiritual warning roared in his mind again.
Don't use divination!
Don't use divination!
Klein was so frightened that he immediately put away the coin and gave up the investigation and divination of the top of the subcontracting chain without hesitation.
As expected, the forces that can target Abraham's family in such a high-profile manner must be powerful. It is even possible that the bounty offered this time is a secret operation organized by several forces working together.
