Chapter 47 Acting?


Chapter 47 Acting?

“Get out!”

“Okay.”

Milo is very cooperative with the work of the casino bodyguard.

Anyway, the target person, Crocodile, has been found now. Just keep an eye on him from a distance and don’t let him run away. Old Xion didn’t say that he wanted to protect the target person’s safety, and if I remember correctly, he mentioned Crocodile. The word "catch" was used, so Milo directly acquiesced that this guy's identity was that of a suspect or below. He would not be a good person, and it would not hurt if he had two fingers chopped off.

After all, he is now deep in the den of thieves. At this time, protecting himself is definitely the most important thing.

Of course, there is one more thing...

Seeing the crocodile being carried into the room at the back of the casino by the bodyguards, Milo took a walk among the crowd in the casino. After walking around, I roughly figured out the basic structure of the warehouse building, and then walked slowly towards the gate.

While passing by the gatekeeper, I "accidentally" bumped into him on the shoulder.

All of a sudden, the spittle stars all over the sky flew over again.

“The kid doesn’t have eyes, right?!”

Milo apologized while smiling.

It’s just that the banknote that was taken away by the other party just now had returned from the other party’s pocket to his own pocket at the moment of the collision.

After walking out of the casino, Milo stood on the bumpy road in the village.

He casually glanced at the corners of both sides of the trail and intersections, and found that there were many people responsible for surveillance here. Milo could feel at least seven or eight eyes watching him secretly just by looking here.

After the legislation, the only form of gambling within the country is horse racing. Like those in the casino behind Milo at this time, once discovered, they will be seized and arrested.

So Old Xion’s judgment is correct. There are definitely many hidden sentries around Arden Village. Once a law enforcement officer’s black trench coat is discovered, he will immediately hide all illegal items in the village. Including punters.

Look at the other buildings around.

This does not look like a village.

Whether it is an original building or a renovated earth-built house, there are almost no large windows. When people walk in the alley, there are flat walls on both sides.

There are no children or old people on the village road, only some "kind-faced" men and some colorful and scantily clad women.

The people who are responsible for keeping track of people on the streets have a slight bulge at their waists under their coats.

If it’s not a musket, it must be at least a steel knife.

This place is full of evil people...

There is no part about Arden Village in the memory fragments of Robben and Karl that Milo possesses, but he is not surprised by the existence of Arden Village. What happened on the Day of the Dead has proved this There are still some people in the country who cannot be touched by law enforcement officers, so it is obvious what class of people are behind the scenes in Arden Village.

There are six rookies who have just joined the job, including old Xion, there are seven of them in total. With this combat power alone, even if the crocodile is caught by then, whether they can successfully take him away from here is another question. Big problem.

When Milo entered the village, his horse was also seized. If a conflict broke out, he would not be able to force his way out of the village.

......

Milo has basically figured out the architectural structure of the casino. Several separated rooms behind the warehouse are located on the west side, where the crocodile was caught.

After Milo wandered aimlessly on the village road twice, he made a large circle and slowly approached the west side of the casino.

But the people watching in the village have noticed Milo's strange behavior.

Someone quietly followed Milo's pace, hanging behind him not far but not too close, always maintaining a corner perspective difference.

Soon, the number of followers increased from one person to three people. They formed a tacit understanding to outflank Milo and approached Milo's location from different paths.

But when Milo entered their field of vision, they discovered that Milo was not alone.

He was accompanied by a scantily clad woman.

The woman had heavy smoky makeup on her face, her hair was disheveled, a cigarette in her hand, and stood in front of Milo with one hand on her waist.

This appearance and temperament are basically equivalent to having your career and hourly salary written on your face.

While puffing away the smoke, the woman negotiated the price with Milo in a sharp voice:

“You have a room and a bed, why do you have to do it in the wild? You have to pay extra! ”

...

The people following saw such a picture, looked at each other, and retreated without saying a word.

After watching those people leave, Milo grinned at the woman and deliberately raised his voice:

"Okay, I have a lot of money, but don't shout too loudly for a while. Oh."

As soon as he finished speaking, a hand knife hit the woman on the back of the neck, causing the woman to faint.

Milo threw the other party into the grass deep in the alley, then sidled directly into the path behind the warehouse, and easily climbed to the top of the warehouse along the rainwater pipes coming from the roof.

The warehouse is one of the tallest buildings in the nearby area. In order not to be noticed by the people watching around, Milo quickly lowered his body after reaching the top floor and lay down against the roof of the warehouse.

As mentioned before, most of the buildings in Yaden Village do not have large side windows. Even if they do, they have some small light-transmitting windows at the bottom of the roof beams, which cannot let people in at all. The most important vents must be placed on the roof.

As expected, large and small holes were opened on the roof of the warehouse, with foldable switches on them.

Milo lay on the roof like a gecko. He roughly recalled the entrance, exit and internal direction of the warehouse. He locked the room on the west side where the crocodile was kept, and then cautiously crawled towards the location of that room.

While passing by the top window of another room, Milo heard the sound of men playing cards, the chattering of people trying to get drunk, and of course some indescribable sounds like humming.

Milo glanced into the house through the glass of the top window, and suddenly felt that he would not have the appetite to eat all day today:

“Damn, what kind of soldier boy has such a taste? Heavy..."

After climbing to the top of the room where the crocodile was with full of regret, Milo cautiously approached the top window.

Fortunately, the weather in Nanwei City is always cloudy and rainy. Otherwise, if someone like Milo exposed half of his head on the top window of someone else's house, the people in the house would immediately find clues from the sunlight and shadow cast by the top window.

Milo thought he would see the scene of the little man nicknamed Crocodile being hung up and tortured, but when his vision adapted to the dim environment in the room, he discovered that this was not a thing at all. The torture chamber.

The lighting inside is soft and the decoration is luxurious. The floor is covered with a burgundy carpet. The wine racks on the side are full of high-end wines. Even the decanters are etched and carved in silver.

Separated by a wall, the scene of Yaden Village outside is like two different worlds.

The suspect "Crocodile" in Old Xion's mouth was slumped on the sofa at this moment, holding a red wine glass in one hand, closing his eyes and concentrating. There was a girl sitting on his lap, and there was another person behind the sofa. Rubbing his shoulders.

Yanran looks like a boss.

……

Didn’t you say chop off your fingers?

Milo couldn't understand it all of a sudden.

Looking at this posture, the crocodile is not a gambler at all like old Xion said, but more like the... boss here?

"So what's the situation now?"

Milo suddenly felt that the situation seemed a little bad.

The crocodile's clothes are very ordinary. Basically, only low-level workers would wear the kind of clothes. It is completely inconsistent with the high-end decoration in the room. His overall temperament is also very bad, and he is a typical gambling dog.

But the crocodile sitting on the sofa at this time did not have the slightest bit of slyness before. Milo was very surprised by the change in this person.

Regardless of whether the crocodile is the owner or the consumer, what is certain is that the scene in the casino where he was carried away by the bodyguards was definitely staged.

And it was performed for Milo.

It means that he knows that there is a law enforcement officer watching him, which means that the pursuit arranged by Old Xion today has long been exposed.

So, why do crocodiles do this?

......

Milo stared at the figure of the crocodile in the room and fell into deep thought.

The crocodile acted openly for himself, indicating that he was not afraid of the law enforcement officers coming to his door, and even hoped that the law enforcement officers would come to his door, so he tried to paralyze the lurkers in this way.

Then his target must be the team of law enforcement officers who are about to arrive later.

Old Theon’s information is wrong?

Has he been sold?

……

Milo suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart.

Perhaps someone has set up a special bureau to target these new law enforcement officers who have just joined the job?

But even as a newcomer, does Yaden Village really dare to attack these black windbreakers? Not necessarily, the people behind Yaden Village provide protection to Yaden Village just to make money, so the design is aimed at law enforcement officers. Once something goes wrong, Yaden Village will not be able to continue to operate. This is a thankless thing.

Various reasons told Milo that the situation was not as simple as he thought.

……

A few kilometers away.

Old Xion and five law enforcement officers have been waiting there for more than 20 minutes.

According to the previously set plan, when thirty minutes are up, they will break into Yaden Village. Whether things will succeed or not will depend on whether Milo can target the crocodile.

A raid like today is actually held once a month. Old Sheen is basically familiar with it. Every raid on Arden Village results in nothing. Arden Village This group of people's awareness of the law enforcement officer's precautions has been raised to a conditioned reflex level. If there is any trouble, all traces of violations in the village will be hidden.

For law enforcement officers, Yaden Village is a tough nut to crack. Without clear instructions from superiors, routine inspections are equivalent to going through the motions.

But today is different. Today's operation has a clear arrest target. However, there will be no resistance in Yaden Village to arrest one or two petty thieves. They even welcome the "unruly" law enforcement officer. It is a law enforcement behavior that hurts the muscles and bones, because this is a disguised whitewashing of Yaden Village.

......

"It's almost time, let's set off."

Old Xion glanced at the dial of the pocket watch in his hand and signaled that everyone could head towards Arden Village. .
