old dream

Chapter 108 Rules
When Aresio opened the ebony door of the venue, what he saw was such a tense scene.

The short Dejo stood up for some reason with a complicated expression.It seems to be angry, but it is more like fear.

And Marizio also took off the signet ring on his finger, and was caressing the name engraved on it, which was his habit when he was very upset.

As the former lamp keeper, Arecio was not qualified to sit at the conference table. He walked through the crowded crowd calmly without touching anyone, and at the same time tidied up the slightly wrinkled clothes from his walk. Collar and cuffs.

He wasn't nervous about the situation in the meeting.Because Capello's fate has nothing to do with him.

It was also his expectation that this family that lacked self-control would come to an end.

Arecio's eyes quickly swept across the crowd, and finally fell on Julieo.She was sitting next to Dejo, far away from where Colin was.

He was in a daze for a moment, and only then remembered that they hadn't seen each other for nearly a month.He's been running around for Julio all this time without even noticing it.

Julieo's appearance has not changed much, at least it can be confirmed that she has not suffered any grievances from Chestalo.

But he didn't feel at ease because he had already heard the rumors that she had eliminated Pia with her own hands.

And today Julio will sit next to "Dirty Finger" Dejo, which confirms his guess even more.

Not as a puppet, but herself, who wants to inherit the Capello family.

Stop it, come back, Julio.

He lowered his arms, thinking silently and painfully.

This road is too dirty and cruel, and it is simply not the way you should walk.

Only those who want something from Julieo will hate her for being a waste.Driven by their own interests, they always hope that Zhu Liou will change and "grow up".

And he, Arecio, would rather that Julieo is a waste.Because he deeply knows that for a special person like Julie, only by becoming a waste can he live like an ordinary girl and preserve her precious kindness and empathy.Even if it's just the flowers in the greenhouse that will wither in the wind, it's the meaning of Arecio's life.

Otherwise, he who has been abandoned by the lights, what reason does he have to persevere?
But after all, Julieo is the daughter of the "brain" Nevio. Regardless of her bloodline or identity, it seems that she has already foreshadowed a certain destiny.

Alessio felt a little lost for a moment. Maybe no matter how he tried to stop her, she would still embark on the cruel road of becoming the patriarch just like her five generations of ancestors.

But this powerless thought only flashed away in Aresio's heart.Ever since he was abandoned by the lights, he has never been in awe of anything, let alone this illusory fate.

And the obsession that has persisted for so many years cannot be easily let go.

Why did Julieu have the change she has now?Alessio knew it was just someone who had awakened inappropriate anger, or immature desires in her.

But after waking up from the lights, he deeply understood that all this was nothing but an illusion that turned his head into nothingness.

He knows better what she really needs than Julio, who is young and inexperienced.

So what kind of future he intends to let Julieo have has nothing to do with her own will.

……

……

Marizio would come up with such a proposal, and he didn't expect anyone to really accept it.

This is a naked declaration of war.

Of course, he would not do it directly in this manor, because doing so would be too ugly and would not achieve the purpose of deterrence.He will let several bosses return to their territory, and then make preparations that they think are sufficient.

But that doesn't change the result much.

It's not that Marizio can easily beat Capello in a direct fire. If you open fire on the street, both sides will suffer heavy losses.

But the war between them will not be played this way.Because as long as Marizio speaks, every leader who should be executed will eventually die silently in his bathroom.

But he didn't expect that "Dirty Finger" Dejo would turn his face on the spot.

On his territory, and in front of everyone.

This is not a question of courage, but of wisdom.Marizio would not be surprised if Capello's other leaders started clamoring at the table, or even drew their guns.

Dejo is not a person who does not know forbearance, nor should he be the one who complained for the Capello family.What's more, Marizio still intentionally or unintentionally wants to let Dejo die, because this short man has always taken good care of his subordinates.

But these good intentions seem to have been wasted.

When Marizio lowered his face, most people were silent.And Dejo didn't seem to notice the danger approaching him.

Immediately after the Cincilian maxim, "Never be insulted until buried," he went on:
"Don Marizio, I don't think you have made a good decision. There has never been such a precedent in the five hands meeting. We come together to help and restrain each other, to strengthen each other, not to defeat who."

"The Capello family came to Stade earlier than Caruso. Before we came, everything here was squeezed clean by the bastard hooligans of the Anhe people. They fought for the living space for the Sincilians in their hands, and then they had money in their pockets."

"You won't forget, it was Nevio's father who supported you, otherwise you would have been a newspaper boy all your life. At that time he was the 'big boss' here. Today you can be ungrateful and disregarding sympathy Dismember Capello, can you guarantee that no one will be eyeing Caruso tomorrow?"

When he said these words, Dejo's whole body was shaking, and he didn't know whether it was because of excitement or fear.But the words in his mouth are very fluent, and even more and more frenzied:
"I know that you intend for your children to inherit everything because you are jealous of the Capello family, which has five generations of immediate family members," he said.

"Shut up! What nonsense are you talking about!"

The assistant next to Marizio stopped Dejo immediately.Although this matter is well known, it is not a topic that can be brought up on this occasion.

Marizio raised his hand, like waving away flies.After signaling his assistant to shut up, he continued to stare at Dejo, but his eyes seemed to be looking at a dead person.

"You can only look up to the person who supports you, so now that you are sitting in this position, you want to surpass him in every way... You have to pass the group you built to your children like him. But this is not enough , are you going to completely tear down what he left behind?"

Dejo is indeed a mediocre person, Colin, who was sitting next to Luka, thought to himself.

The series of words he said seemed powerful, but in fact they were in disarray, and they were just dying.In addition to playing the emotional card to cling to the relationship, isn't this forcing Marizio to kill them?

"Remember, it was you who violated the ban."

Marizio's throat is still hoarse and heavy, as if he has been suffering from laryngitis, making people feel that it is very difficult for him to speak:

"I let you speak freely here because I am afraid that others will panic and misunderstand. I don't care about those hypocritical and stupid taboos. Let's bring them all to the table today."

"I will answer all your remarks head-on, whether it is Capello's contribution in the past few hundred years, or the past between me and the previous 'big boss'. These have nothing to do with the punishment you deserve. Because everything is just because you have Mistakes first: Bootlegging in violation of prohibitions, ignoring the mediation of the 'judges', killing hundreds of innocent people in the streets. Someone did something wrong and got punished, when is this something you can go back and forth Speculation?"

"But you still want to pass on Caruso among your blood relatives."

Dejo couldn't help but continued:

"You are old, how old is your child? Can he tie his shoelaces? Are you not afraid that you will set a precedent now, and what happened to Capello today will happen to him one day? "

"You are worried about my child." Marizio twitched the corner of his mouth, not knowing whether he was laughing or angry:
"Yes, he will inherit everything from me."

"But no matter how many years it takes, the Caruso family cannot be dismantled like you.

"This is not because my child has the strength to make the family strong forever, but no matter how far Caruso declines, he will remember my teachings to him and will pass on this teaching from generation to generation.

"It's like the old 'big boss', Capello's patriarch two generations ago, used to teach it to me."

Marizio closed his eyes, and with a little nostalgia, chanted and quoted in Naarete:
"No matter how much power and profit is in front of you, there is always one simple but not simple thing that should be remembered, and that is: don't break the rules."

"He has been dead for 40 years, and he died in an infamous way." Marizio frowned, changed his sitting position slightly, and rubbed his nose:
"But I still remember the look in his eyes when he told me that, he looked into my eyes, he wanted to make sure it was etched in my heart."

Rules and reputation are more important than anything, otherwise you will become no different from those gangster groups in the old city.

"If your old patriarch is still alive, do you know what decision he will make to you?" Marizio said:

"I'm telling you—the same decision as mine."

"Then get ready to accept the war." Dejo said: "We will not sit still..."

I'm afraid Dejo is preparing to take the initiative to attack Marizio, talking about the final announcement.

But he was only interrupted by a soft female voice in the middle of his speech.

"Uncle Marizio, may I intervene here?"

This is a sound that is extremely inconsistent with the atmosphere of this place. When it sounded, there was a little commotion among many people in the field, and they whispered about something.

Most people are surprised.

Because the speaker is the once called trash Julieo.

Arecio silently looked in Julieo's direction, and unconsciously crumpled the cuffs he had just adjusted.

"Julio." Even though he was also surprised, Marizio's expression softened a little, and he looked at her without much expression:
"You were the one I watched growing up... Let me tell you."

He paused, then added:

"But if you're speaking for those people, I don't care about it."

Colin looked at Julio, wondering what changes she would bring to the deadlock.

After obtaining Marizio's consent, Julieo still lowered his head for a while.Then, as if she had sorted out all her thoughts, she smiled easily:
"At the party just now, I asked people how the meeting came up with such punishments."

"Although it's not as strict as the courts of the authorities, what kind of punishment is to be decided by our 'judge group', right?"

Marizio stared at her for a moment, then turned to look at the others.

The people present and the crowd didn't know who smiled first, but after two seconds, everyone laughed.

"Which ones are members of the jury?" Marizio said:
"Stand up, let's do a complete process."

A body of judges without a written law is of course just a joke at a time like this.A few people grinningly squeezed out from the crowd. They belonged to several powerful families and represented the interests of their respective families.

"No, no, no." Julieo hurriedly waved her hand and said:
"I don't expect them to disobey you."

"I just want to say that even if it is done according to the rules, there is still room for adjustment in the current punishment."

Some people were already booing, saying things like that the useless princess should shut up at a time like this.

"It's the heaviest crime and deserves the heaviest punishment." Marizio said:

"I don't see a problem."

"But this kind of punishment can lead to gang wars." Julio said:
"Capello is a family that can give members a sense of identity. Even if they lose their leader, they will still resist."

Even if the leader is beheaded, someone will still take revenge.

Marizio looked at Julio:
"You are not suitable for this occasion."

"I know."

"What will happen to Capello, you will not be affected," Marizio said:

"I was entrusted by Arecio, and because of the love between Nevio and your grandfather, you can spend the rest of your life in peace."

"However, I am indeed related to this matter." Julieo said in a low voice:

"If it wasn't for my incompetence, the family wouldn't have gotten out of control like this."

"If I were an option for you to choose, then there would be no need for you to dismember and control Capello's members so eagerly."

"All punishments are designed to keep most people from making mistakes." She raised her head and said:

"Would you give someone a chance if there might be a better option?"
