Love and passion, cutting up the wasteland
Chapter 155 Hiding in Prison
"Hiding in prison?" Lu Meng rubbed his forehead.
Things get complicated.
According to what this hornless man said, he was helping transport corpses to the prison tower in Scone Town, and the weapons collected in the prison included those horizontal knives.
This kind of knife is originally suitable for personal carrying, so people in black will choose them.
One of them was brought out by Cavin greedily for an opportunity, and then given to Lao Wu as a flattering gift to make friends with this knife-loving Shaq warrior.
Lu Meng summarized the clues.
No wonder Shaq's guards searched the whole city but found no trace of the black-clad robbers.
It turned out that he was staying in the prison, a blind spot in the arrest process.
Can a person who has been arrested once be arrested a second time?
This made Lu Mengming come up with a retarded joke:
——Why don’t the guards go to the prison to catch criminals?
I'm sure I'll catch you right away.
"The situation is definitely not as simple as it seems..."
The guards are not useless and would not think of investigating the newly imprisoned prisoners during this period.
But what if there are people in the system helping the robbers cover up?
What's more, for example, these men in black simply entered Scone Town as prisoners, and some insiders excused them midway and let them go out to do their business.
After that, he was "arrested" by the guards again and hid back in prison.
If this is the case, then the prison tower has become a base of operations for these people in Scone Town.
The weapons collected by prisoners are their arsenal for easy use.
As for how the men in black entered the city.
Lu dreamed of the sand bandits who came to attack the city from time to time, and there were many Shaq tribesmen among them.
They were all arrested and brought into the city "above and above board."
——This does not necessarily mean that there are people in Scone Town colluding with the bandits, but it is very likely that they are also using and guiding the bandits.
The full name of "Sand Bandits" is "Desert Bandits", which is a general term referring to the bandits who plunder in the border desert.
They all have the King of Sand as their leader in name, but in reality there are so many chaotic forces that occupy the mountain as the king that they can't even count.
But all in all, it is at least certain that the men in black have their organizational connections behind them.
Lu Meng’s original plan was:
After learning about the clues about the man in black, he did not intend to investigate or solve the problem himself. He just acted as an enthusiastic citizen and went to the guard to report it.
In order not to reveal your identity, you can also pay to hire a homeless person.
He doesn't care about the bounty, as long as the hidden danger can be eliminated as soon as possible.
Others are not targeting him yet, but who knows if they will pick some people who don't look so tough to bite after the limelight passes.
One of the unstable factors is enough.
"It's just that now...it's not even clear whether the person who received the report is their accomplice."
Risks have increased sharply.
Not only will it not solve the problem, it may also lead to retaliation.
Even if you don't show up in person.
"The good news is that even if there are their accomplices in the official ranks, the proportion will not be too large."
Lu Meng thought while recalling.
"Otherwise, there is no need to cause uproar in the city. You can even attack him and accuse Yue Yu of violating discipline, and liquidate him directly."
There has been no recent news of prisoners being released.
The accomplices of the men in black in the prison tower should not commit crimes against the odds, so let them out at this time.
...It is also not ruled out that the man in black will be transported out of the cell disguised as a corpse, just like the Count of Monte Cristo.
Lu Meng glanced at Kavin.
This hornless man looked uneasy and waiting for his fate.
What to do with him?
Lu Meng asked: "You dare to give away the things you stole from the prison tower, aren't you afraid of being discovered?"
"Don't worry, sir." Kavin thought Lu Meng wanted to keep the knife by himself, "The security chiefs will regularly auction the confiscated property. Valuable items such as weapons and armor. If they can be sold, they will An additional inscription is engraved on it, which means that it is a regular income.”
"Even if the original owner is released from prison and crashes, he can't trouble the buyer again."
Lu Meng nodded.
In fact, it's like a judicial auction.
"Then this inscription..."
"Yes, I carved it myself..." Kavin quickly added, "But I promise it will be genuine. There has been no problem for so many years."
Lu Meng had long discovered the inscription on this horizontal sword and knew its meaning. However, the horizontal sword he took directly from the leader in black did not have this mark. It was obviously added after being stolen.
But even he couldn't tell the truth from the false, and he was surprised, so he opened his mouth to test it.
"I didn't expect you to have such skills..." Lu Meng smiled slightly, "Become my apprentice from now on."
"ah?"
The person Kavin.
Being hornless only means that his status is low, but it does not mean that he is low in ability.
And being able to get involved with Shaq Warriors as a hornless man actually shows that he must have something special about him.
Although it seems that it is not a legitimate craft now.
But Lu Meng is not a serious person either.
Isn't this the right store for him?
There are a large number of illegitimate weapons that need to be dealt with.
"Okay, okay..."
Kavin smiled bitterly and agreed.
This expression of reluctance was trying hard to hide a smile... Lu Meng knew what he was thinking.
Apprentices in this era are deeply exploited.
On weekdays, you have to serve your master carefully, and you can be beaten, scolded, and ordered around, just like a slave; for someone with the status of the Hornless Man, his life is not even under his control, and he will be beaten to death. Maybe you have to first wonder if the apprentice is dishonest and stole something from the master's house.
The only thing that keeps them going is probably the hope that they can learn the master's skills as soon as possible and survive in the industry.
Then he started to exploit his apprentice.
For this reason, apprentices have to work for free, and some even have to pay tuition in return.
To a certain extent, people who are still in the apprenticeship stage are not even as good as the clerks employed in the store. At least they still get paid.
Lu Meng had read Chekhov's work "Vanka" in the text before. It said that little Vanka was mistreated as an apprentice by a shoemaker boss. He wrote a letter on Christmas Eve asking his grandfather to take him back... The situation of the apprentices in it was worse than now. Never leave.
No one knows that thousands of years later, history has returned to the past.
As for Calvin, because they were in a longhouse, his expression turned even darker when he saw Lu Meng's blacksmith workshop.
Even if you are an apprentice, the treatment in the forging and smelting industry is the worst.
Not only is the working environment poor, the work intensity is also high.
After a day of hammering, a person will lose half his life from exhaustion.
After all, ordinary apprentices don't have the same physical fitness as Lu Meng.
But no matter how hard it is to be an apprentice.
Kavin was not in a position to refuse.
The apprentice's hard days will come later, but if he doesn't agree now, there will be no hard days later.
Although the hornless man didn't know the inside story, Lu Meng's information came from him after all. If he let it out, it might reveal that he had guessed the hiding place of the man in black, which was risky.
The possibility is very small, but it is necessary to guard against it.
As for whether Kavin is convinced or not...
Anyway, after seeing Lu Meng practice martial arts with the unconscious Sha Cheng, he seemed quite convinced on the surface.
This is enough.
Lu Meng threw Sha Cheng on the street outside and prepared to hand it over to the security guards who came over.
Since he wants to go to jail so much, let him be satisfied.
"prison……"
The prison tower stands tall.
Even though it was late at night, Lu Meng could still see it from here.
Presumably the prisoner on the top floor who had left an impression on him was also standing in the cage, overlooking the entire town.
Cavan had experience transporting bodies from the tower.
Through this channel, we might be able to continue to monitor and explore the movements there.
