Chapter 23: wait for dark
Chapter 23 Waiting for Darkness
Shelley and Peart stood on both sides of the car, one on the left and the other on the right. Everyone present was focused on the Secret Service car, guessing what the two official and powerful figures in the Cape District would talk about.
Getting into the car, Holt said to Luke: "I am also following orders, even if you threaten me with my family, the Public Security Bureau will not let the Furious Axe go.
I was transferred, so someone will take my place. "
Luke looked outside, and said to Holt in a relaxed tone: "Director, look at the people outside, look at their expressions. They all know that every word you and I say here can make Many people here will not survive tomorrow.
Even you and me.
You have your responsibilities, and I have mine. On the first day I took office, I watched you wipe out the Furious Axe. How can I manage my subordinates? "
"The Furious Axes are an illegal gang, they're colluding..."
"Director Holt, since I'm here alone with you, don't tell me those nonsense things. The Furious Axe is an illegal gang, and those people who follow your Public Security Bureau may not be clean.
Today you use this excuse to deal with Furious Axe, tomorrow I can use the same excuse to deal with the people below you.
Kill all the people working below, who will be the coolie to deliver goods for the gentlemen in the rich district? "
Holt said vigilantly: "What are you talking about? I don't understand. What does this have to do with the old men in the rich district?"
"Holt, the former inspector of the Secret Affairs Bureau of Haijiao District died very strangely! The first mission given to me by the eldest princess was to investigate the cause of his death, but I know that the water in Raging Waves City is very deep, and I don't want to put my own Order to go in.
I just want to play for a year or two and then get transferred.
So I hope you don't push me too much, wouldn't it be good to keep the Haijiao District Secret Affairs Bureau as it is? "
Luke's words made Holt think.
The higher-ups hope that he can take back all control of the Cape Port Wharf, but they also don't want to affect the normal transshipment of smuggled goods.
The Haijiao District Secret Intelligence Bureau's response today is to show that the Crazy Axe is a death-protection party. Once the Public Security Department wiped out the Furious Axe Party today, and the Secret Intelligence Bureau retaliated and wiped out one of the lower halls tomorrow, the two sides will really kill all the people working below.
The gentlemen in the rich district will not send their own people to deliver goods.
At that time, this responsibility will still be carried by the Haijiao District Public Security Bureau.
Besides, if you push people into a hurry, it will harm your family.
If the new detective is willing to maintain the status quo... Although it is difficult to explain to the higher-ups, it is not impossible to explain.
The new detective of the Secret Intelligence Bureau expressed his willingness to cooperate.
As for whether to cooperate sincerely or just talk about it, that will be a matter of the future.
"Do you have any suggestions? Even if I am willing to let the Furious Axe go, the outsiders probably won't."
Seeing Director Holt let go, Luke said: "On the first day I took office, I am not familiar with the Furious Axe, and I have no idea of protecting them in essence. But I must take care of the attitude of my subordinates. You should Knowing Black Mamba and Pisco is not so easy to control."
Holt looked at the two people standing outside the car, agreed with Luke's point of view, and even said with some sympathy: "The two of them are the guys who give all the detectives of the Cape District a headache."
"Since you understand my difficulties, I suggest that... the Secret Intelligence Bureau and the Public Security Bureau evacuate here at the same time, and not directly send people to participate in this incident. You and I also restrain the people below us not to make trouble during the day, and at night Each according to their own ability.
Director, what do you think? "
Luke's proposal avoids direct conflict between the Secret Service and the Public Security Bureau, and limits this battle to the level of gang competition.
If the flames of war do not go up, the upper echelons will not be affected.
Especially the family members of the upper class.
Holt didn't know how the Secret Service found his family members who hid so secretly. Now he can only minimize the risk.
"I hope you can keep your promise."
Luke held out his hand to Holt: "I should be the one who said this. I'm the last person who doesn't want to make things worse. The sooner we withdraw, the pier will be able to operate normally earlier. After such a long delay, it must have squeezed a lot goods."
Holt and Luke lightly shook hands and pushed the door to get off.
Luke rolled down the car window and said to Shelley: "Notify our people, retreat!"
Shelley asked: "Should we withdraw now? What about the people from the Public Security Department?"
"Withdraw together..."
The sheriffs surrounding the entrance of the Furious Ax Party headquarters evacuated in an orderly manner under Holt's order.
Shelley also waved his hand immediately, signaling the agents of the Einsatzgruppen to withdraw.
The convoy honked its horn all the way, as if it had won a battle, it returned to the Secret Affairs Department in a grand manner.
As soon as he reached the second floor, a clerk from the Bureau of Secret Affairs said to Luke: "Master Inspector, an old woman who claims to be Shelm is waiting there. She said that you asked her to come, and that she was helping her." Find your son."
Luke looked at what the clerk was pointing at, and it turned out that the old lady selling hot dogs was standing there timidly.
Seeing Luke looking over, the old woman immediately bowed down to salute.
"I made her come." Then Luke said to Shelley who was following him: "It's your case, you are in charge... This is my test for you."
Shelley said awkwardly: "Inspector, I still need to contact people to support the Furious Axe. Besides, I only kill people and don't find people."
Luke took up the case of Shelm's son's disappearance purely on a temporary basis. Seeing that Shelley said so confidently about eating the king's meal, he wanted to beat her up.
It's just that it's more important to help the Furious Axe through the difficulties now.
And if Shelley is really asked to take charge of this case, he might not be able to find his son, and take his life into it.
But Helm has already agreed.
When Luke was in trouble, the clerk volunteered and said, "Detective, you can hand over this case to me."
Luke looked at the clerk in front of him.
A very young man, looking eager to prove himself in front of the new leader.
Looks a little familiar.
After identification, Luke finally recognized who this familiar person was.
Wallis Thomas!
Five-star hero, legendary agent of the Golden Shield Empire. Because of her meticulous actions and outstanding achievements, she was included by the eldest princess in the "Raven", the highest secret service agency of the Bureau of Secrets.
Codename "Silence".
Later, in the fight for the throne between the eldest princess and the eldest prince, he successfully assassinated many important personnel in the eldest prince's family, and became one of the top ten ace agents bestowed by the eldest princess.
Of course, the current Thomas is not the "Silence" in the future. Judging by his age and appearance, he should be a rookie who has just joined the Secret Affairs Bureau.
Luke didn't expect to meet young Thomas at the Cape Secret Service.
interesting!
Seeing that the inspector had been looking at him, Thomas said with some embarrassment: "I'm sorry, inspector. I know I'm a newcomer and I don't have the ability to handle cases independently. But I hope the inspector can give me a chance. I I will definitely do my best to help Hirm find her son."
