These big people are actually me

"This is really great, respectable Mr. Sheriff, we hope that you can sell this Huasheng Golden Stalk, and I will give you an absolutely satisfactory reward!"

But what surprised Mo Zuo was that the other party looked at the two of them and hesitated for a while before saying:

"You two seem to be extraordinary too?"

"Yes, we are all extraordinary."

Mo Zuo had an intuition that there was going to be a change, but he gave a truthful reply without any reaction.

The other party also showed a burst of joy and immediately said:

"That's really great. I have a personal request. I would like to ask you two for your assistance with this golden spike of transformation."

Mozo's eyebrows moved at this:

"My lord, I do want this golden ear, but I don't have to. I hope you can understand that."

Using what others ask to do things for him, as long as it is not excessive, Mo Zuo does not reject this, nor does he think it is a problem.It's just that he is reminding the other party, don't think that you have caught the handle to blackmail them at will.

The magistrate obviously heard what Mo Zuo meant, he nodded and said:

"I understand your concerns, I will tell you the truth, and it will be up to you to judge whether you agree."

As he spoke, the magistrate turned around and took off the white veil from the altar behind him.The statue of the Lady Justice enshrined inside was exposed.

It was a beautiful goddess with a heroic face holding the Tianping sword high!

The moment he saw the statue of the goddess, Mo Zuo slightly turned his body to avoid being directly looked at by the statue.

It was not a common statue that blurred the face of a god.It is a statue of true face that may be attached to the spirituality of a god.

This statue of the Magistrate, since it does not obscure the goddess' features, is often covered with a veil to avoid inadvertent disrespect.This is not the case with the rest of the statues that obscure the goddess's countenance.

It can also be seen from this that the magistrate is a devout believer in justice.

He stood up and stood in front of the statue of the goddess, and said solemnly:

"I swear in the name of Her Majesty the Goddess, there is no concealment or malice in my next words!"

After speaking the oath, the magistrate took a map and pointed to the slums and said:

"Two days ago, a child from the slums came to me. He said that there were a lot of mice missing. He was very scared about it. He hoped that I could help take a look."

"And I hope that the two of you can accompany me to investigate. Of course, it's in the name of a private person. I really don't worry about those children."

Volume 135: Chapter 134 4 The Original Libra ([-]k)

"Kids from the ghetto?"

Audrey asked with a strange expression.The military strength of the Northern Commercial Alliance is average, but Audrey also remembered that they were notoriously rich, but there was actually a slum in their capital?

Obviously, no matter how hard other countries pull their hips, they will not let their capitals appear poor, because in the secular concept, this is a very embarrassing thing for a country.

And Mr. Sheriff said helplessly:

"Yes, the slum area. Although the people above don't admit it, it is indeed a slum area. So we can only go there in the name of private individuals. In this case, I am ashamed to say that I really don't dare to go alone."

The rats were gone, especially in the doomed ghetto where there were so few rats that even a child could notice.

This may seem like a good thing, but if you think about it, you will find that it is tricky and fatal. The mice will not leave voluntarily. It can only be an accident that they will disappear, and the accident in the extraordinary world...

Therefore, even though the magistrate is a transcendent person of the path of justice when he can only pass in the name of a private person, he really dare not go alone.

But letting him just leave it alone, he felt uneasy again.

Fortunately, he met two people, Mozuo, who happened to ask for him.

Audrey was not talking, but turned to look at Mozo, she was waiting for Mozo's decision.

And Mozuo glanced at the statue of the Goddess who was motionless, then nodded and said:

"Since it's the children's business, then I am willing."

"Then I'll go too."

Seeing Mo Zuo's statement, Audrey also agreed.

The magistrate was immediately overjoyed:

"that would be great!"

At the same time, he glanced at his pocket watch and said:

"The time is right now, why don't we go and have a look first?"

He really doesn't worry about those kids.

Mo Zuo didn't answer immediately but looked at Audrey, who also took out a gold coin knowingly and used it for fortune-telling.

Under the double witness of the goddess and the gods, Audrey threw out the front representing peace.

Looking at the feasible gold coin, Mozuo nodded and said with a smile:

"Then let's go!"

The magistrate stopped talking nonsense, but he didn't really set off immediately. Instead, he dragged out a box from under his desk, and dug out two well-maintained revolvers and two bottles of anti-drug holy water. Oil.

After handing these over to Mozuo and the others, he hung up the sign of going out and took Mozuo and the others to the slum area.

The slums of Emerald are very unusually located in the center of Emerald.Because the terrain of Fei Leng Cui is similar to a downward cone, the central area is in a low-lying terrain.

The builders at that time also took advantage of this to design the Fei Leng Cui Center as a sewer entrance and opened up an underground river to facilitate the smooth drainage of sewage by taking advantage of the terrain.There is no need to worry about the trend of the underground river polluting the ground, because that river leads to the ruins of the underground city of Heart City, and it is the forging river that the dwarves of Heart City used to get water when forging tools in the past.

But now that the ambition city is gone, there is no need to worry about anything else.

Therefore, this sewer entrance became a gathering place for the poor, and gradually evolved into today's slums.

After passing through a high wall used to isolate the slums, the building in front of Mo Zuo and the others instantly changed from a beautiful, practical and majestic building to a low, dilapidated and smelly building.

The magistrate apologized to Mo Zuo and the other two apologetically.It was also because of the stench that almost no other transcendent was willing to come over.

Otherwise, he would not have met Mo Zuo and others who had just met for help.

Mozuo shook his head to indicate that it was okay, then took out the handkerchief prepared on the road, poured rose essential oil on it, and handed it to Audrey.

This made Audrey, who felt nauseated, see the savior.But after she put it on with tears in her eyes, she realized that Mozuo seemed to have only prepared this one.

After kissing the handkerchief quietly with a flushed face, he planned to tear up the half of the handkerchief and give it to Mo Zuo, but Mo Zuo shook his head and rejected Audrey's kindness.

Because that would affect his sense of smell. Although the place was smelly, the effect on his sense of smell was not as good as the fragrant rose essential oil.

Although divination said it was possible, it would be foolish to be completely defenseless because of it.

At the same time, Mozuo also took a deep look at the sewage pipes that went deep into the surrounding area. Because they were exposed, they were made of Oliha steel, which made Mozuo a little bit tongue-tied.

This metal was once hailed as the metal of the gods, because it is not only extremely strong, but also has a certain degree of metal memory that can slowly return to its original shape after being hit.

Its corrosion resistance, magic resistance, etc. are the limits of what mortal man-made objects can achieve.

It can be said to be the best of the best, but the price is also unusually high.Under normal circumstances, they can be used as strategic materials for hoarding.As a result, the local tyrants of Fei Leng Cui actually used it to forge sewer sewage pipes.

But doing so is indeed durable.

But it’s not this that makes Mozuo feel a little bit. Use the best material if you have money. This is not something that needs to be criticized or dissatisfied.What really made Mo Zuo feel helpless.

Obviously, as long as they are willing to squeeze out a little money spent on pipelines, they can improve the conditions of the slums very well, but they just don't, and even built a high wall to keep out of sight and out of mind .

Fortunately, they built high walls just for the sake of clear eyes, not to completely isolate themselves from contact with the slums.Otherwise, most of those children would not be able to find the sheriff to help until the accident in the sewer completely broke out.

After walking for a while, Mo Zuo and others came to a huge vertical downward circular gap.

This is also the main road and terminus of the sewage pipe.The sewage pipes coming from all directions and the sewer as an auxiliary channel all gather here and pour sewage and stolen goods downward.

Audrey approached the dilapidated fence carefully, and looked down at the dark sewage main road.

"Below here is the underground river that leads to the ruins of the city of ambition. There is nothing to see, my dear lady, this is not where we are going."

After looking for a place, the magistrate slammed open an iron door.Where is the sewer entrance.

Looking at the rusty iron gate, Mo Zuo suddenly asked:

"Where are those children? Why didn't any children see them all the way? Adults too."

The sheriff stopped what he was doing and said with a sigh:

"They are all working for people outside, and children are too. Unless they are very young children, they will go out to work during the day, otherwise they will not be able to get tomorrow's bread. And if there is no food for a day, people may die. "

"You may not have seen those children and adults. Their bodies are too weak. One day, no, missing a meal of food may kill them."

Audrey said in surprise:

"Going to work like this? Isn't that slow suicide?"

But after she finished speaking, she remained silent. It is obvious that people would rather commit suicide slowly than to work, and they can only die if they don't work.

The security officer was also silent for a moment, and then he forced a smile and said:

"Actually, you may not believe it. The people here are pretty good, because unless they are unlucky, they can basically eat two or even three meals a day. And I heard from those businessmen friends that in other parts of the alliance , especially the relatively remote places near the Forest of the Sacred Tree, because the economy is relatively backward, so the local lords squeeze more and more fiercely, so many people there basically live on one meal a day, or even one meal every two days."

"How could this be?"

Audrey was really shocked this time. Although she is not a top aristocrat like the two ladies of Rose's family, no one who can study at Cromwell University will be so poor.

What's more, Audrey is still a transcendent, and because of the prosperity of the country because of the alternate relay of the old wolf lord and the queen, it is hard for her to imagine that in this age, there are still people who only eat one meal a day or even two days.

"Why not? Those local aristocrats have never treated people as human beings. For them, if they don't give them food, no one will be able to work for them alive. I'm afraid they don't even have a meal. May it be given to the poor."

"Actually..."

Audrey fell silent.

Mozuo was also silent for a while. The Northern Commercial Alliance relies on three neighbors, one is Heather and the other is Lorraine, relying on their mineral resources, relying on the round stomachs that the alliance lords of these two neighbors can eat, and also I am willing to squeeze out a little leftovers to make the mud legs under my hands work harder.To make yourself fatter.

But what about the nobles who are close to the Forest of the Sacred Tree.We all know that elves are xenophobic and do not trade with foreign countries.

Therefore, the nobles in this place can only trade with their own "same kind", and then they who have been exploited by their same kind once, want to earn more, so naturally they can only intensify their efforts to 'eat' the mud-legged people.

In this way, how can the people at the bottom of the mud legs have a good life?

Even Mozuo infers that the closer the "eating chain" is to the forest of the holy tree, the more serious it will be.Those nobles will definitely continue to exploit the same kind who are closer to the elves according to the distance of the region.

There is no doubt that the Northern Commercial Alliance is very rich, because even those nobles close to the forest of the sacred tree who have been exploited layer by layer are very rich.After all, there are mines in hand.

But such wealth does not belong to the people.

But in the extraordinary world, it is basically impossible for the poor and the low-level people to resist the noble master who controls the extraordinary.

Unless there is any external force to break all this.

After shaking his head, Mo Zuo looked at the sheriff and said:

"Let's not talk about it, let's go in and deal with it here."

The sheriff also nodded in agreement, and then walked in first.

The three of them walked along the sewer that served as an auxiliary channel for the sewage pipe, and soon saw a large number of rat skeletons.

Looking at the mouse skeleton about the size of an old hen, not to mention Audrey, even Mozo was in a daze for a while:

"The mice here are so big???"

The magistrate squatted in front of the skeleton and inspected it without any surprises:

"It's normal. The rich people in Fei Leng Cui often hold various large-scale banquets to show off their wealth, and the food at these banquets must be surplus, and all of them are dumped into the sewer here."

"And those rich people seem to like to add extraordinary materials to their ingredients. Although the materials that will be thrown away must be low-level materials, the accumulation over hundreds of years is amazing enough."

The sheriff held up a rather large rat skeleton and said:

"From this point of view, I'm a little surprised that these mice are so big."

After finishing speaking, he held up the skeleton and said strangely to Mo Zuo:

"I'm dissatisfied with you, although I haven't seen the bones of these mice, don't you think the bones are a bit strange?"

As he spoke, he showed the skeleton in his hand to Mo Zuo, and Mo Zuo instantly saw the problem:

"It exploded from the inside, no, it should be said to explode from the inside."

After what Mo Zuo said, the magistrate also reacted:

"Indeed, the ribs were expanded outwards, and many of them were broken. Are they stretched from the inside and eaten clean by the same kind?"

Immediately, the magistrate gave a reasonable guess with his eyes bright:

"Maybe it's not a big deal, it's just that some rich man or aristocrat turned some kind of tonic food upside down recently, so that these rats ate themselves up!"
