Am I really hallucinating?

Chapter 26 Don't underestimate my intelligence network

Linde did such a great job that he was appreciated and his superiors even wanted to recruit him.

This made Wang Cheng, who had recruited him into the gang, jealous.

Linde used a group of "funds" to make a killing in the casino and earned a fortune. He was overjoyed and all his depression disappeared at this moment. The people behind the casino also formally invited him to provide him with "a more stable job."

Everything is going in a good direction.

Wang Cheng's jealousy was unbearable.

But just after Lind happily took a suitcase of "money" and said he was going back to give his wife and children a surprise, he returned that night in a daze.

When his acquaintances asked him about it, he didn't answer and continued to work and gamble to earn money without saying a word.

I have been less active on weekdays and am no longer in the same world as these non-staff members.

But Wang Cheng, who was more familiar with him, felt puzzled. Linde, who used to talk about his wife and children every day, no longer mentioned them. He also noticed that when Linde came back that night, he did not bring back the suitcase containing a large amount of money.

This is impossible.

People who are dazzled by casinos will never really give out their money. They will only show off and then take the money back and continue to use it as "start-up capital" in the hope of making more.

Wang Cheng thought of something and had some evil thoughts.

So they came to Linde's residence.

……

Meow~.

The cute cat's meow covered up all the unpleasantness.

Lin Yilin and Zheng Fan walked out of the alley together.

"What's in the alley that can't roll and doesn't have many holes on it?" Zheng Fan spread his hands. "The answer obviously excludes bowling."

"The answer is the corpse." Lin Yilin casually put the cat gun back into the small bag.

"You are so skilled. I was only good at it on paper before I came here."

"I did, a long, long time ago."

"Wow."

"Most people won't care about a body that was shot, and an extra-staff cleaner won't be taken seriously. There are countless such people in that kind of casino. But if we don't deal with him, we might be in some trouble. Although the impact of a piece of trash may be small, we should still eliminate it."

"Pulling the trigger can make people feel much more relaxed. It's a good deal." Zheng agreed.

"Yes, Mr. Illusion really does understand better than I do."

"We have reached a consensus and our tacit understanding has reached a new level."

"What's the previous step?"

"When you told me the color of my underwear."

"Irrefutable."

Zheng Fan and Lin Yilin did not continue their investigation. They took the subway back to No. 102 Xiding Road.

When he opened the door, he saw that Toast had resurrected, but he was no longer as cheerful when he saw Lin Yilin. It was obvious that he was traumatized.

Zheng Fan gave it a big hug to celebrate the rebirth of perfect toast.

"Dear Toast, I'm so happy to see you that my appetite has suddenly come up."

"Ouch!"

"But don't worry, I ate donuts using Lin Yilin's body on the way back."

"Ouch!"

While Zheng Fan and Toast were interacting passionately, Lin Yilin was concentrating on operating her mobile phone with her head down. She walked to the single sofa and collapsed, but her fingers did not slow down at all.

"Are you mobilizing your mysterious intelligence network again?" Zheng Fan asked after taking a glance.

"It's not that mysterious. It's just like asking neighbors if they have eaten tonight. It's a very common thing." Lin Yilin responded.

Why didn't Zheng Fan believe it?
After a while, Lin Yilin suddenly stretched out her legs and held up her phone: "Found it."

"Hmm?" "The power behind that unknown casino is, of course, just speculation."

Zheng Fan:?
I just heard the story of Linde from Wang Cheng, and on the way back I kept typing on the phone. After a while, you know what is behind that casino?

Are there any neighbors of yours who are so powerful?
"It happened a few months ago. Ms. Cabris mentioned the time when her husband's business failed and he went bankrupt. It seems to match some of the things I remember."

Lin Yilin stood up, walked quickly to the bookshelf next to the desk, and found a bundle of newspapers with a swipe of her finger.

"The economy in Dadu is in turmoil?" Zheng Fan saw the headline in the newspaper.

"A big gang has fallen, and these gangs are one of the important components supporting the economic system of Dadu. The life and death of those big gangs is particularly important. This is news that can be called an earthquake in Dadu." Lin Yilin said.

"So? What's the deal?"

"The reason why the gangs are so rampant in Dadu recently, in addition to the 'simple folk customs' of Dadu and Mr. Illusion as you said, a major factor is that the demise of that gang has led to a reshuffle of forces and the city is in chaos. Among them, Xixikoko Street, as a large gray area, has naturally been affected."

Zheng Fan recalled his recent contacts with various gangs.

He really thought that most people looked like this.

But it’s pretty much the same, it just increases the refresh rate of gang events.

"Has Linde's business been affected by this?" Zheng asked.

Lin Yilin put down the newspaper. "In the gray area, no matter how big or small the business is, it has to be related to the gangs. This situation is not uncommon. Many times, a business on the surface may involve various interests between underground gangs behind the scenes. It is difficult for people living on the surface to know this. When the underground gangs have problems and affect those places, they haven't reacted yet, and the leeks have been harvested."

Zheng Fan: "Lin De is just such an unlucky guy."

Lin Yilin replied, "Mr. Linde is definitely not the only unlucky person during this period. We just happened to touch the tip of the iceberg."

"Then how did you find that unknown casino through this?" Zheng Fan returned to the topic.

"Now that we know the layout of that big gang on Xixikoko Street, we can try to compare it and search for it. Do you remember the Black Scorpion Gang that was first involved in drug smuggling?" Lin Yilin said.

Zheng Fan patted his toast: "Remember."

"The source of their channels originally belonged to a small branch of the Canneton family. This is a gang family that was born and raised in Xixikoko Street. It was very powerful, but it collapsed and disappeared quietly during the turmoil. Now the Xixikoko Street gangs are eating up what they left."

Lin Yilin picked up her phone and swiped it, probably reviewing the previous intelligence: "The time is more or less the same. I was curious at the time and followed up. However, it was a turbulent period and my adoptive father asked me to stay in the school district and not come to the gray area. The investigation was slightly disadvantageous, but I still gained something."

"It is basically certain that the rise of the Canneton family was initially aided by the big gang. They were considered to be a subordinate of the big gang. When the big gang collapsed, they were also attacked. Whether it was due to complete collapse or hiding and escaping, the Canneton family members quickly disappeared after a large number of casualties."

"What is the business of the Kanneton family?" Zheng Fan also followed the train of thought.

"One of the main businesses is the casino, and of course it has been divided up now. While the economic turmoil created a large number of people who lost their fortunes, wealth-related illusions also found an opportunity to invade in large numbers. It was during that period that my adoptive father took me to witness many such illusions."

Lin Yilin waved her phone as she spoke.

"How do you connect the nameless casino and the disappeared Canneton family?" Zheng Fan continued to ask.

"Flesh and blood currency." Lin Yilin said first.

Zheng Fan paused for a moment, then understood: "Disappearance of people... No, this is very common in Dadu. That is, small animals and livestock breeding in the city?"

Flesh and blood currency must have a source. It is not just the people who are deceived who need start-up capital, but also the people behind the scenes of the nameless casino.

The high-value currency is people, but people’s disappearances are so common in most cases that they cannot be considered as clues. It’s a bit of black humor.

However, it is not easy for the conditions of medium and low value currency, livestock, and small animals in the city to coincide with each other.

If things get bigger behind the scenes, it will be easy to expose problems in this area.

"Then I looked for some routes to livestock breeding in Xixikeke Street. I originally just wanted to follow the clues and look around, but I accidentally found a point, which was basically confirmed."

Lin Yilin's tone was flat, as if she had done something insignificant.

"A breeding company has been closed down on the surface but still operating at a minimum level internally, and has been transporting livestock to closed communities without anyone knowing for several months. This company was originally owned by the Canneton family."

"If you dig deeper, you will find that the company was originally founded by the third son of the Canneton family for fun, but now it is used for other purposes."

After saying that, Lin Yilin put down her phone and looked at Zheng Fan quietly.

The perfect piece of toast in Zheng Fan's arms was a little dazed.

Let me just say, don’t underestimate Binary Pretty Girl’s intelligence network.
