Necromancer: Becoming a God from a Lord
Chapter 307 Rats and Flies
"[Rat] appears! Everyone should pay attention!" A young detective policeman hurried in the corner and turned to his head to his colleague who was ambushing in the alley.
Zhuhuo nodded and squatted in the shadow of the street corner and said quietly, "Don't alert the snake, just continue to pretend to be a job... This guy is obviously coming empty-handed, probably looking for a buyer."
A detective in the alley pressed the felt hat pressed on his head, looked at the candlelight and left quietly. Police Max, who was pretending to patrol outside the three streets and alleys, were waiting for their news to be heard. .
"Rat Catching" is the temporary number of this arrest operation. With the open operation cover and diverting sight from the police department, the detective police officers locked in the frequent appearance of civilians in less than three days. The district's goal, four or five people took turns monitoring and squatting every day, and finally figured out the other party's movement trajectory.
The other party seemed to be very clear about the daily patrol frequency and fixed route of the Police Department. He accurately picked the time after the airborne policemen left the street and chose to come out to move.
So Zhuhuo and other secret police officers changed into shabby coats and pretended to be a coolie who did odd jobs, mingled with the locals who were normally squatting on the streets in the city, blocking them on the main streets of civilian areas, as long as they were found, "Rats are found". "If you appear or pass by, you will definitely not be able to escape their surveillance.
The "mouse" swayed around the main street for a few times, and then entered a shop at the entrance of the street - the main street of the Grizzly Castle civilian area. There were several shops run by local chambers of commerce, and their main business was food. Salt and sugar acquisition and sale.
After a while, the "Rat" led a middle-aged man who looked like a guy out of the shop and hurried back to his residence just across the street. Behind the guy was two donkey carts pulled out of the backyard of the shop. Obviously, I have to go and carry some goods.
"Damn guy, he is indeed selling food privately..." Zhuhuo clenched his fists and whispered in a low voice, "How did he get so much food? The food in the territory market obviously needs to rely on residents. Limited-purchase of ID cards…”
He suddenly thought of something and widened his eyes and said angrily: "Damn it, it's not that the people in the warehouse department are stolen by themselves, right? Dog thing! He simply doesn't take the laws promulgated by Lord Lord seriously!"
A young spy behind him couldn't help but urged in a low voice: "Boss! What are you waiting for? Let's catch people immediately!"
Zhuhuo took a deep breath, suppressed his anger, waved his hand and said, "No hurry, he can't do this dirty work alone. If you want to get the stolen person and get it all in one go, you have to wait patiently for this nest. All the mice emerged…”
He has arranged people in advance to notify Police Max's patrol brigade, and will block all major intersections in the civilian area later. At present, he only needs to keep a close eye on the "rats" to complete the transaction, and then follow them to find out. Just speculative merchants who secretly purchase food.
Sure enough, not long after, the "Mouse" and the guy appeared from the corner of the street with two full donkey carts, picking remote alleys and branches to reach the side door of the shop on the main street. A bald head with a big belly was in the middle of the street. The young man waited there early, and saw the donkey cart approaching and looked around and alertly for a while before slowly approaching the cart and lifting the cloth bag to check.
Then he smiled with satisfaction, took out a small bag of coins from his arms and handed them to the "rat".
"Do it!" Zhuhuo decisively issued an order to implement the arrest. Four or five detective police officers rushed out from the street corners and alleys at the same time, and rushed to the target standing there, frightening them to the point where they were at a loss.
Zhuhuo kicked the stunned "rat" first, lifted his foot and pressed his back to the ground, and dozens of silver and copper coins spilled out of his purse that had not yet been heated.
"You've been arrested!"
...
Yurio used the magical communication instrument specially approved by the lord to the police department to report to Harvey the case of the people who privately hoarding food and transporting it to Grizzly Fortress to steal trades to local merchants.
Looking at a large number of communication reports sent by the senior police officer to himself, Harvey put down his quill and sighed softly. The laws of restricting grain purchases and strictly prohibiting private sales in the pioneer territory have actually been repeated among the people. I have been preached and publicized many times, but I didn’t expect that someone would still choose to take risks for such a little money.
etc! Harvey slapped his head suddenly, turned to Reiner beside him and asked, "What is the limit on the food that residents of the territory can buy with their ID cards every month?"
Reiner was silent for a moment, took out his work manual and read it and replied, "Sir, it is enough for the people to eat as much as they eat. After all, only wheat flour, salt, sugar, tobacco and alcohol are limited to purchases, bread, dairy products. , meat foods that are not easy to store for a long time, but are sold to the public..."
Harvey narrowed his eyes and said angrily: "Then tell me how they can save hundreds of pounds of hulled wheat while ensuring they are not hungry, and secretly pull them to the Grizzly Fort to sell them." of?"
As he said that, he slapped the table angrily and became angry and angry at Reiner and Asdaren, "A litter of rats has been born in my territory warehouse!"
Reiner closed the workbook with a snap, and knelt down and bowed to Harvey without saying a word. He didn't understand how these people saved so much food from the daily necessities. , but since the Lord has asked the guilt, he must have had work negligence on weekdays, so he will never make any mistakes when kneeling down and apologizing.
Asdaren was much calmer. Although the head of the city hall was only responsible for assisting Reiner from the side, the lord was very angry and still kneeled down on one knee to apologize, then got up and came to the magic brain communication device. He quickly copied the results of the interrogation sent by Superintendent Yurio and bowed and handed it to Harvey.
"Sir, please calm down... This is indeed our negligence in work, but it is not a problem with the territory's storage area..." The chief consultant glanced at Reiner, who was kneeling on the ground in a daze, and whispered to defend his colleagues, The daily entry and exit of the warehouse and patrol of the warehouse are all under the responsibility of the alchemy beast. The municipal officials in charge are the first group of old people to join the territory. They are loyalists taught by Reiner himself. They will never be for the sake of this little money. He just steals his pockets from the warehouse."
Harvey looked at Reiner, who was kneeling tremblingly, and his anger disappeared halfway, and then he began to carefully read the case trial report sent by Yurio again.
There is no mistake, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one 619, one book, one, one, one, one, one, one, a book!
It turned out that it wasn't a hateful rat that had appeared in the territory's storage area. The problem lies in the Ministry of Agriculture, which is responsible for animal husbandry...
What made Harvey even more amused was that the crime of private sale of grain was actually because the batch of Chen Mai, who had been harvested in the warehouse two years ago, was ordered to be used as feed for livestock after the bumper harvest in the new year. ——Although the wasteland is dry and cold, the unshelled wheat has been kept in the warehouse for a long time, and it is inevitable that it will be slightly damp. At a time when food is not short of food, it is most suitable to use this batch of old grain as livestock feed. It's right.
But some leaders of the Ministry of Agriculture who are used to hardships don’t think so. This is a large and full ready-made grain! It is too extravagant and wasteful to feed animals! Even if it gets damp and moldy, it is hundreds of times better than the potato rhizomes and wild vegetable bark that were dug out of the soil during the famine season in the past.
So a few leaders secretly planned to secretly send the Chen Mai to crush the fodder every day, and picked up some of them. After accumulating for a while, accomplices who moved from the southern border were sent to In the name of returning to the Grizzly Bears to visit their relatives, they transported this batch of tide wheat mixed with a lot of grass and wood chips. It was a surprise that they could exchange for a few dollars.
Harvey, who had figured out the whole story of the case, couldn't help but hold his forehead, raised his hand and signaled Asdaren to pull Reiner up from the ground, and ordered speechlessly: "It does not seem like a serious crime... but since the law of territory The law has stipulated, and it is the first case of such cases, so naturally it is necessary to sentence severely, so that a negative example can be established and the rest of the people should not take risks for this!”
A thousand-mile dike will also collapse into an ant hole. Since there is a perfect territory law first, Harvey believes that killing the chicken and scaring the monkey is a must-have, otherwise these "little flies" who did not have any bad intentions will sooner or later perform. He became a "big rat" who specializes in taking advantage of loopholes to harm his interests.
