MTL - Age of Mysticism-Chapter 22 storm coming ashore
Chapter 22 The storm is about to come ashore
Luke didn't expect that he would have such a big impact on the Cape area last night when he walked around the cape area as a clear sky.
Although most of the ocean trade in Raging City is not located in the Cape area, Cape Port is the old port of Raging City, and still retains a large share of ocean trade. In particular, some smuggled goods that are not visible can enter and exit smoothly under the cover of all parties in Haijiao District.
Therefore, the interests of the wharf in Haijiao Port have become the core interests of Haijiao District.
The Furious Ax Party occupies a large share of the Cape Harbor Wharf.
Once the giant tree died, the Furious Axes would have no leader. It was a good time for everyone to go up and have a bite together.
But what Luke is thinking about is... if a large-scale fighting breaks out in the cape area, will it endanger his own safety?
The "incumbent" inspector of the Haijiao District Secret Affairs Bureau died for no apparent reason.
If I take the lead in fighting, will I become the target of public criticism?
Luke didn't answer Lambert immediately, but subconsciously checked the information on the mobile phone related to the cape area of Raging Waves City.
First of all, Rage City is the largest seaport city in the Golden Shield Empire. The ocean trade is very prosperous and it is the richest city in the empire.
Has the title of the money bag of the Golden Shield Empire.
Secondly, the large-scale smuggling in Cape District, the real profit side is in the wealthy area of Raging Waves City.
City councilors, officials, nobles, businessmen, celebrities... all participated. The interests that all parties in Haijiao District are fighting for are actually just a few grains of golden sand flowing out from between their fingers.
Luke stood at a certain height to see what happened in the cape area, unlike Lambert and Shelley, who could only see what was in front of their noses.
As an institution directly under the royal family, the Bureau of Secret Affairs is obviously not liked by the urban elite.
After all, what they did was to plunder the empire's wool and evade the empire's taxes.
Haijiao District Secret Affairs Bureau is a nail in the smuggling port, which makes people very uncomfortable. Even if the Haijiao District Secret Information Bureau was dragged into the water by them to participate in smuggling, it must be better to use their own people to rest assured.
The Haijiao District Public Security Bureau is affiliated to the General Public Security Bureau of Raging Waves City, and it is a violent institution directly affiliated to the City Council of Raging Waves City.
The son of the rich and powerful in the city!
Now that there is an opportunity to **** the control of the entire Haijiao Port from the Haijiao District Secret Information Bureau, the Haijiao District Public Security Bureau will definitely fight at all costs.
Send another detective from the Bureau of Secret Affairs on the road?
Although some slapped the eldest princess in the face, it was not something they couldn't do.
And if the Public Security Bureau is allowed to **** Haijiao Harbor, the Haijiao District Secret Information Bureau will be completely trapped inside.
The hearts of the people are scattered, and the team is not easy to lead.
If you want to run when you are in danger, you may not be able to.
Disaster!
But it is not a dead end.
As long as the fighting in the cape area stays at the level of internal fighting, outside forces will never intervene easily. After all, making things bigger is not what the bigwigs in the wealthy district want to see, and they dare not easily expose their relationship with smuggling.
With the power currently in the hands of the Haijiao District Secret Affairs Bureau, it is not impossible to deal with the Public Security Bureau.
Everyone in the room was waiting for the new inspector's statement.
"War?" Luke said, "Since it's inevitable, we can only fight it."
Hearing that the new detective said the war started, the core members of the Furious Ax were all excited.
As long as the Haijiao District Secret Intelligence Bureau is willing to come forward to organize mercenaries, they will have a chance to persist until reinforcements from Fishbone Island arrive.
Lambert stood up and saluted Luke with the backbone of the Furious Axe: "Mr. Inspector, thank you for lending a helping hand to us again. As long as our Furious Axe Party survives this crisis, we must remember the Lord Inspector's love for us. kindness."
Everyone said together: "We must remember the kindness that Lord Inspector has shown us."
"I heard it, I hope you can really remember it. Sit down..." Luke waited for the Furious Ax to sit down, and said to Shelley: "I am not familiar with all parties in the Cape District, contact us Can you leave the matter of sending out mercenaries to you?"
Shelley said: "Please don't worry, inspector, just leave it to me."
Luke stood up, picked up his cane and said to the Furious Axe: "I can't help you with how to defend your castle, so I won't make trouble for you here. I'm going to see the director of the Public Security Department now to see if I can defend you." I can’t help you reduce some of the pressure here.”
The backbone of the Furious Ax surrounded Luke and sent him out of the gate respectfully.
Outside the door, the secret agents of the Special Forces Bureau continued to confront the sheriffs of the Public Security Department.
At this time, standing beside Captain Bazel was a man wearing gold-rimmed glasses. He was wearing the uniform of a high-ranking sheriff, without a hat, and his golden hair was very eye-catching.
Luke walked over, tucked his cane under his arm, and stretched out his right hand to the man.
"Director Holt, hello. I am Meteor, the new inspector of the Haijiao District Secret Affairs Bureau. We will be colleagues in the future, and our Secret Affairs Bureau's work in the Haijiao District still needs a lot of support from the Public Security Bureau."
The blond man is the director of the Haijiao District Public Security Department.
He had just returned from the central city, and when he heard that the newly appointed detective of the Bureau of Secrets had come to support the Furious Axe, he rushed over immediately.
Hearing that the new chief inspector of the Secret Intelligence Bureau actually issued a quasi-kill order to his own Public Security Bureau, he couldn't suppress his anger.
Facing Luke’s extended hand, Holt ignored and questioned: "Detective Meteorite! I know that you have just taken office and want to raise your power. But your power is not to step on the face of the Public Security Bureau, or to shelter criminals!
I am now issuing a stern warning to you, do not hinder the Sheriff's Office from handling the case. Take your people away immediately, or you will bear all the consequences! "
Luke still had a smile on his face and said to Director Holt: "I am here because the homicide that happened here yesterday is related to a national security case that our Secret Service is investigating.
When I first came to Haijiao District, there were many things I didn’t understand and I offended. I would like to apologize to my colleagues in the Public Security Department.
If you have time, I invite you to go to the bakery at No. 267 Baiyin Avenue in the central area and taste the pastries inside.
I heard that their pastries are very, very delicious. "
When Luke mentioned the bakery at 267 Silver Avenue, Director Holt's expression immediately changed, and he asked, "How do you know about that place?"
Luke said: "We are the Royal Secret Service and know more things than you think. I want to talk to you alone about things here. A storm is coming ashore, and I don't think you want it, Director. Too many innocent people got caught in it."
Holt said angrily: "If you dare to touch them..."
"Their safety is in your hands. Don't worry, I hope the storm is under control too. Come on... let's talk in the car."
Luke walked towards his car leaning on a cane.
Holt told his men not to act rashly, and got into the car with Luke.
