  Chapter 399 398. Prohibition Order

It simply left a record with the police. In the evening, sunset As they descended west, Drizzt, Lu Yi and Shia left Dr. House's clinic.

"Someone is staring at you?"

In a restaurant on the roadside, Drizzt recounted what he felt in the dark underground room.

What surprised him was that neither Lu Yi nor Xia felt it.

That thing seemed to be coming for Drizzt.

"Do you really know something incredible, the other party is going to kill you?"

Lu Yi picked up a hot potato and peeled it away , Sprinkled some salt and pepper, and took a bite.

"There is something in that room that I didn't dare say when I was inside."

Drizzt sighed and stirred the broth with a spoon, compared to the dark street Vegetable broth, the broth in the restaurant has at least real meatloaf and a lot of flavor.

"But neither Lu Yi nor I felt it. This shouldn't be."

Xia gobbled up and said, in front of her, a chicken leg was already connected to the bone by her. After eating it, there was only a little bit of crumbs left in the large piece of bread. As for the meat steak and vegetable soup, it was only because Shia was talking that their fate of being eaten up and wiped out was postponed slightly.

". Is it really an illusion?"

Drizzt also knows very well that Lu Yi and Xia, one is not normal, the other is beyond normal, if both of them If I don't feel it, then it's really nothing, it's just my own psychological effect.

"Forget it, let's take a look at the next investigation target, the supplier that Dr. House has contacted, and the two patients he has received. By the way, I may go to Marty tomorrow morning. Visit Mrs. Na. After all, some things are better not to stay with him."

He patted his chest, and the inner pocket of his long trench coat contained the case records.

"Is there a possibility that the friends and relatives of those killed by the noble lady of the gang have hatred and want to kill an accomplice like Dr. House?"

Lu Yi asked again.

"It is also possible that I have recorded the names and information of these deceased persons, and I can go to investigate and investigate tomorrow."

As a detective, Drizzt is at this level There is still a sense of smell.

"You two will sleep in my detective office tonight. I am a little worried that other monsters will appear due to the influence of Silent Place."

"Okay!"

Lu Yi made a good voice.

"Are there many monsters in the abandoned city?"

Xia seems to have never been to the abandoned city again except for the last [Mouth of the Madman] mission. , So I'm not familiar with the state here.

"Not much, to be honest, I have traveled in so many foreign places, I think the most dangerous waste city is not monsters, but humans."

Drizzt said with a bitter smile.

After dinner, the three of them walked through the street.

Gray Lane is just like its name. It is at the junction of the rich and the poor. Under the street lamp, there are many call girls standing. A good night, there was some beggar, my eyes were numb, and I couldn't see any will.

The only thing missing is the drunk, because the abandoned capital is still in the prohibition period, so the guys who rely on alcohol to paralyze themselves did not appear on the street, but the crime rate really decreased?   Lu Yi doesn't quite believe it.

"So to speak, because of the prohibition of alcohol, some doctors will make private wine to sell, will Dr. House have this kind of hobby?"

He is in the dark room I have seen alcohol. In this foreign land of Prohibition, this thing is still quite risky.

"It is possible, but at least the wines in his darkroom were not made by himself. I know the labels of those wines. They were made by the Catania family. In some upper-class parties, these wines For those guests to taste in the small room, this should be given to him by Mrs. Martina."

Drizzt explained.

Prohibition is a decree that is strict to the lower class, and naturally loose to the upper class.

Lu Yi looked towards the rich area, where at night it is also gold and jade in glorious splendor, brightly lit, illuminating the roads in the poor area, more dazzling than the street lights here, in those houses, the so-called People of the upper class sing songs every night, and wine will certainly not be absent from these banquets.

However, due to the prohibition of alcohol, public drinking and drinking at parties are not allowed, so many people go to the lounge of the banquet hall, where they can taste wine while discussing transactions.

A small group of people walked by the street. These people were wearing shabby clothes, covered in dirt, and there were some stains on their bodies that were difficult to wash off. I don't know if they were caused by paint or coal.

"These are the workers over there. They start working at seven in the morning and work six days a week until nine in the evening. They only make enough money to eat for two people. Those in the factory Pollution, I mean exhaust gas, which is very serious. Especially in recent years, a worker can no longer work after three years at most, or he will die."

Drizzt said in a low voice. Xia and Lu Yi said.

"Many of them are farmers living in the wilderness outside the abandoned city. Because of the adoption of some new technologies, the wealthy people who have mastered the farmland fired them and let these people enter the abandoned city. They are illiterate. , They do not have any skills themselves, they can only enter the factory and continue to be squeezed by the rich."

"Why not go to other cities, or go further into the wild?"

Shia puzzled.

In the kingdom of night, there is no such kind of exploitation and squeeze. If one cannot go to the gray tower to learn magic, one can also go to farm, raise livestock, cut wood, and raise fish. Feed yourself.

"The abandoned city is barren, and even bounty hunters are unwilling to waste time there. Farther places, like our last time, require a long journey and are dangerous, many People can't even afford the fare."

Drizzt lit the tobacco in the pipe and inhaled the pungent smell to relieve fatigue.

"Moreover, even if you go to other cities, you may be squeezed by the leaders of those cities. There is no difference. At least there are more chances of ruining the capital. If you have good physical strength, good luck will enter the gang. Can be a thug."

"True terrifying."

Xiya couldn't help but sigh.

"That’s why I said that compared to monsters, people in the abandoned city are more terrifying. Monsters will only kill you. Feeling that chronic death has swallowed you, and the pain will continue until the moment you stop breathing."

Drizzt took the two proficiently across the street and returned to Drizzt, which is also on the border between the rich and the poor. Special detective agency.

As soon as the door opened, a fat orange cat was sitting on the sofa. Drowsily raised her head and looked towards the door. When he noticed Lu Yi, the orange cat suddenly jumped up and looked at this side vigilantly. , And then I didn’t know where I went.

"I'm going to borrow two quilts, you can find a comfortable floor."

Drizzt pointed to a messy ground and went downstairs.
