I Forged the Myth of the Old Ones

Regarding Tucker's records, Drizzt found that the police here are much more detailed.

[Taker, the leader of the violent gang of the Sharp Knife Gang, died in a fight with other gangs in October 25. 】

In addition to Tucker, the other four gang members are also members of the Sharp Knife Gang. It seems that they gathered here and were taken over by the Catania family.

Such cases are not uncommon. In the past few years, the Catania family has continued to expand, and has had disputes with many small gangs. Some have surrendered and become subordinates of the Catania family. Some, such as the Sharp Knife Gang , was directly eliminated by the Catania family, and was completely removed from the city.

It seems that Liz, who originally lived here, was involved in a gang fight and died. Lu Juan looked at the information of the other deceased, and most of the causes of death were also obliterated.

Although according to Stone, the Catania family wants to cleanse themselves and become upper class, but in the process of expansion and stabilization, its characteristics as a gangster are still unavoidable. Sometimes, it is obviously much easier to make them an offer they cannot refuse than to spend a lot of time negotiating.

"But what does all this have to do with Dr. House's case?"

Shia didn't quite understand.

If Drizzt dreamed of Flora, she and Liz were good friends who lived together, they were in poor health before, and they were cured only after receiving the medicine from Dr. House. They encountered a gang fight a year ago, Liz died unexpectedly, and Flora began to receive medicines from Dr. House directly. The incident can make sense here.

But why kill these two people?

"Because they saw the gangster's face, or knew some gangster's secret, they were silenced?"

Lu Jian guessed at will.

"But the gangsters can control the records of the police station. There is no reason not to know the existence of these two people. They should have been silenced long ago."

Drizzt shook his head, in the abandoned capital, if gangsters want to keep any secrets, just kill them, and don't have to worry so much.

"And Dr. House is related to Mrs. Martina and the Catania family, and someone from the Catania family has also died"

Having said that, he flipped through the file and looked at the list of those who were tried.

Drizzt quickly discovered the familiar name, McGee, the name of the gangster who died because of the glass flower.

He participated in the action of besieging and killing the Sharp Knife Gang at that time, and was later pushed out as a scapegoat. He was finally released on bail without punishment.

"Contact original here"

Drizzt felt the threads in his mind gradually being untangled.

The deaths of these three people were indeed related to this incident.

What kind of murderer would kill these three people with such hatred?

Drizzt felt that as long as a motive could be found, the murderer could be deduced quickly.

Because these cases are obviously very purposeful.

When the motive is revealed, it can clearly point to the murderer.

"It seems that I have to ask the Catania family tonight."

He thought of his own party invitation.

evening.

The core city of the abandoned city.

It's very different here.

The streets are clean, the buildings are row upon row, and the windows are much brighter.

There are all kinds of vehicles driving on the street, and there is an endless stream of people coming and going.

Colorful signboards stand between the buildings, making the roads colorful, and the street lamps are dazzling, covering the stars and moonlight.

In any shop on the street, the singing of the gramophone was heard, and the joyful music filled the city, as if to cover up all the sins.

Most of the people on the street wore decent clothes. These clothes were well-made, and some were hand-stitched to fit the body. The cost of just one button was enough to feed the people in the slums for a week.

This is the first time that Lu Jian has really come to such a wealthy area. The mansions in the ancient capital were considered luxurious before, but now you can feel that the ancient capital is just ordinary rich people, and the people who live here are the real abandoned capital. Upper class.

Children who grow up here will never know what pig feed tastes like, don't have to sell their bodies for money, and don't smile brightly over muddy bread or someone's leftover sandwich.

Lu Lian was also not very comfortable. He was wearing a cheap suit, which didn't fit well because it was rented. There were not many people of his height in Huadu, and the clothes were a bit cramped.

Drizzt also took out the formal suit from the bottom of the suitcase, he was careful not to get the suit dirty.

As for Shia, she rented a long emerald dress. For Shia who grew up freely since she was a child, wearing this kind of waist skirt and high heels was obviously quite uncomfortable.

"Can I take my shoes off, at least until the party starts?"

Shia rubbed her fair feet. High heels hurt her heels more than the most troublesome magic problem. She couldn't help but took off her shoes and stepped on the car barefoot, feeling quite happy.

"Pay attention to your image, I don't want you to be kicked out."

Drizzt straightened his tie, the car just arrived at the entrance of the hotel, he got out of the car first, followed by Lu Jian, and finally Shia who put on the high heels with a displeased face.

They are about to attend a charity banquet hosted by the Catania family.

Ask for a recommendation ticket, ask for a monthly ticket!

===408. Pay attention to your image===

After seeing the filth and stench of the black street, the hardship and distress of the poor, and then entering the luxurious banquet in the upper city, Lu Jian felt that the difference was even greater than traveling through a foreign land.

In the brightly lit hall, some men and women in gorgeous clothes are playing and singing on the dance floor, some are sitting on the sofa and chatting, and some are standing on the terrace, holding expensive cigarettes and cigars, puffing clouds .

On the dining table in the banquet hall, there are all kinds of food, such as roasted suckling pigs with crispy skin and tender meat, steaks that are sizzling with oil on the iron plate, roast chickens, fried fish, etc., although they are not as good as Lu Juan It was as refined and styled as the era of the old city, but in an environment like the abandoned capital, these foods can definitely be called luxurious and luxurious.

"So much food, can I eat whatever I want?"

Shia looked at the table of food, and felt that even the unsatisfactory soul had flowed from the corner of her mouth.

"Pay attention to your image."

Drizzt also knew that he would definitely not be able to persuade Shia, this foodie would [-]% drown in the sea of ​​food in the end, forgetting the purpose of his trip.

However, he also found that there were many guests sitting around the dining table, including a member of the Catania family, the eldest brother of this generation, Peter.

"Peter Catania, he is more like a gourmet than a gangster. He likes food and has no interest in the family business. You can monitor him by eating."

Drizzt said to Shia.

Shia's two eyes have become the shape of a roast chicken, and she doesn't know if she understands it.

As soon as Drizzt let go, Shia immediately rushed to the dining table, took a plate of food as high as a hill, and sat at the table two tables away from the gangster brother, gobbling it up, causing many people to be surprised.

No one bothered her.

Most of the people who participated in this kind of charity banquet were rich people who had nowhere to spend and needed donations to satisfy their spiritual demands. Everyone was very polite and would not speak rudely to strange and beautiful girls.

Even if she eats better than a pig, it doesn't look any better.

Lu stumbled because he had experienced such a scene several times and knew how to deal with it.

He and Drizzt took a glass of wine each, and greeted them as if they were familiar with the others. At the same time, Drizzt was teaching him something about the Catania family.

This generation of the Catania family now consists of two men and three women.

The eldest brother Peter is there to taste food and wine, and deal with other people's flatterers by the way.

The second child, Corsica, is the person most likely to inherit the family position. He is ruthless and has a high combat effectiveness. He once took the lead in fighting with other gangsters and killed more than a dozen people. The man who is next to the dance floor and surrounded by many people is he.

The eldest daughter, Carol, is gentle and teaches in an uptown school, so she didn't attend the dinner today.

The second daughter, Thalia, helps the family business and is also very shrewd. She has a tense relationship with her second brother and dances with women on the dance floor. The woman in suit and trousers is her.

The third daughter, Mrs. Martina, loves drama, and after marrying a drama actor, she often goes to various evening parties. She is considered a socialite.

Mrs. Martine was not seen at the banquet, only her husband was talking and exaggerating with a few potbellied businessmen.

Lu Jian looked around and forgot the name.

He simply divided the few people present into the gourmet, the second brother, the man-in-law, and Mrs. Martina.

As for why only Martina deserved to have a name, it was because Drizzt mentioned it too many times.

And their father, the real master of the Catania family, the godfather Corneon, usually does not attend such banquets, or he is only in a room in this banquet hall, holding the cat to listen to other people's requests, let them Kiss the ring on his finger.

There are as many people in the waste capital who want to please him as there are people who want to kill him.

Suddenly, the music on the dance floor changed, and a certain classical melody sounded. Lu Juan looked over. On the stage in front of the band, in front of the microphone, a woman in a cheongsam-like dress that fit her body curve smiled slightly. Then sing.

"I don't know why, the sorrow surrounds me, I pray every day, drive away the loneliness of love"

Her voice is full of emotion, mellow and low back, and with the old tunes, it is easy to immerse yourself in it.

"Why is she?"

Drizzt was taken aback for a moment, he saw the singer and stopped in his tracks.

Lu Juan glanced at it. The singer was dressed in graceful clothes, and his appearance was quite beautiful, and he also had a classical charm. He was far superior to those internet celebrity beauties in his own world.

"Is she the singer you mentioned?"

Lu Bian was curious.

"Yes, Miss Charlotte, a real singer."

Drizzt tidied his clothes subconsciously.

"I didn't expect them to invite her."

"Are you going to catch up on the old days?"

Lu Jue took a look at the female singer, at least in Lu Juan's opinion, she didn't have any weird body structure, at least she was a normal person.

"No, no."

Trace made a special face, as if he suddenly had a weakness, and it seemed that he suddenly had an armor.

The charity dinner officially started ten minutes later.

It was the second brother who gave the speech. Lu Jian saw that the stone, or Stone, was standing in the shadow behind the second brother. He was like a shadow, observing everyone secretly.

"I hope to build a beautiful new abandoned city. We can eliminate poverty, hunger and crime, improve the living conditions of workers in those factories, make the air in the black streets no longer smelly, and make everyone in the abandoned city feel happy. can obtain their own happiness”

The second brother speaks impassionedly, he is very talented as an orator, the pause of language, intonation, and his own body movements can well mobilize the emotions of the audience.

When he mentioned that the workers in the factory were suffering from diseases due to overwork and polluted air, there were still people weeping, and when he talked about the threats outside the abandoned city, those monsters and the horrors of the Ratmen, there were some guests Show the emotion of fear.

If Lu Jian hadn't known that he was the leader of the gang, he would have almost believed it.
