World War I

Chapter 84 Making money in the right way
Luo Ye is dealing with a conflict in the Vienna Home community.

When a car that was not from this community came in, the old security guard asked a few questions in a nice tone, but the two men in the car were impatient.

The guard just wanted to know who they were looking for and which building.

The two golden-haired animals said they were from the community, but they couldn't clearly tell their house number.

The doorman has a good temper, but is principled.

So, the two golden retrievers immediately became unhappy, got out of the car, cursing and beating people, and beat up the security guard. When people in the community saw this, they immediately called the police and the two men ran away immediately.

Based on the information from the caller, Luo Ye's police car happened to see the car at the intersection.

When the car saw the police car coming, it knew something bad was going to happen, so it immediately crashed into a small car in front of it and fled.

What the two men didn't expect was that the police car actually knew how to drift. It braked suddenly at high speed and swung its rear end, just blocking the direction of the vehicle's escape.

The two golden retrievers wanted to use the same trick again.

The police had their guns pointed at them.

"My father is a council member, the chairman of the Omsk City Council! What do you want?"

Omsk. Luo Ye had heard of this city after coming here. It is a big city in western Siberia.

"Really? Then you're a VIP. Show some integrity and come with me to the police station."

"What what, what place?"

"Police station!"

Luo Ye took the man and his car back to the police station.

The three female police officers from the police station were out having fun tonight. Luo Ye didn't want to spoil their fun, so he decided to lock up these two guys for a night first.

It was exactly eight o'clock, but Turgenev didn't come.

"Forget it if you don't come."

As he walked out of the office, he saw Turgenev walking slowly towards him from the direction of the male police officers' dormitory.

Luo Ye planned to wait a while.

In the detention room, the two golden retrievers were restless and kept shouting.

Turgenev heard the noise and walked over quickly.

"Have you decided?"

"Correct."

"Okay, no need to force it. It's just right. We've arrested two people. One of them claims to be the son of the Speaker of the Omsk Parliament. I'll leave it to you. You'll see the result tomorrow morning. Bye."

Luo Ye threw the key to the holding room to him.

Turgenev grabbed the key and said, "Wait a minute, I'll go ask."

About five minutes later, Turgenev arrived at the police car.

"I know a few people in Omsk. That kid with dentures is indeed the Speaker's son. He's vindictive. You're in big trouble."

"He beat someone so badly that he was sent to the hospital. Could you please tell me how I should handle this?"

"Aren't you afraid you won't be able to be a police officer?"

"Don't you know I'm a habitual criminal?"

"Have you tried it?"

"You're kidding me, what do those two purebreds say?"

"They want you to apologize and be released immediately, otherwise you will face the consequences."

"I have that old guy Andre to protect me. Now is the time for him to beg me."

"Andre may not be able to protect you either." "I've never seen you so talkative before. It's very unusual. Do you recognize the Speaker? - Then wait until he can't protect you. We are in a hurry."

Luo Ye started the engine and was about to leave.

"I'll go with you."

Luo Ye was stunned: "Welcome to join us!"

"No, I mean, I'm going to arrest you all and take you to the county police station and hand you over to Chief Knuckles."

"Are you here looking for trouble? I'm telling you, this case might be connected to Mammoth Spirit. White Bear saw a man in black who had similar features to the man who snuck into the police station that night."

"Don't tell me, Luo Ye, what kind of situation is it that regular Russian security police are robbing tombs?"

Luo Ye said, "Don't you know how bad the Russian police are right now? We're already doing pretty good by not reselling state assets or dismantling warships for parts. Stop being so hypocritical. Do you still want to pick up girls? Do you still want to catch Mammoth?"

"Of course I want to pick up girls, but only you, Luo Ye, can link tomb robbing with catching mammoth spirits. Don't treat me as a fool!"

"Let's make another bet. If the man in black who made White Bear a god overnight is the same man who broke into the police station at night, what's your bet? Give me the person you're pursuing?"

"Even if they are the same person, what is the relationship between the man in black and the Mammoth Spirit?"

"It's currently under investigation. This matter is complex and bizarre. How could the Man in Black transform White Bear into a gravedigger overnight? There must be a reason. It's a manifestation of superpowers. Isn't Mammoth Spirit researching those superpower potions and reagents? Thinking back to Mark's case, there's a connection. Also, I have a feeling Director Knuckles is hiding something. He might know the Man in Black's identity, but he's not telling me."

"How do you know Knuckles is hiding something?"

"When he received Deputy Chief Anthony's call in the forest, his expression wasn't right. Irina told me he might know more about Product One than we thought. He's the county police chief, having been chief for over a decade. The Kursk Town Police Department is under his command. He's certainly well aware of what's been going on at the base over the years, better than anyone. His behavior at the base during the last operation was also suspicious. He knew someone would retaliate. The Kursk Town Police Department is the primary target of retaliation. Looking across the entire jurisdiction, who else could retaliate against our department? Taki and his colleagues are a prime example. I suspect Taki's entry into the base was a trap, lured in by someone who made a false alarm, and Taki turned into a monster. I saw it with my own eyes. Have you ever considered why Product One used Taki as a test subject? He's a veteran cop, and he and Chief Knuckles used to work together in the same bureau. After all I've said, you still want to report us?"

Turgenev straightened his collar. "You're right. Digging a grave doesn't count as selling state assets. But we are police officers. We are police officers."

"Look at you, you're so tall and strong, but you're actually a bitch. You had to pretend to be a bitch to join us! Can't you just treat it as a part-time job after work? Go away, or I'll treat it as you giving up your rights and not wanting to share in the dividends."

Turgenev was reluctant but finally got into the police car.

After the police car met up with Fyodor's car, the group took a pickup truck to their destination.

Russian tomb robbers are not like those in "Ghost Blows Out the Light" who dig ancient tombs and fight zombies. They specialize in digging relics from the battlefields of World War II.

For example, the things of German officers at that time, such as Luger pistols, Iron Cross medals, gold bars, etc.

Westerners have given these "diggers" a precise term: Black Digger.

It is these diggers that Luo Ye wants to catch.

Digging is not something that can be done with just strength.

First of all, you need to understand the history of World War II. You need to frequently read historical books and war memoirs to look up information to find the general location of the cemetery and master the skills of "finding dragons and locating acupoints" in ancient battlefield relics.

This skill is not much worse than that of the gravediggers here. They use the same tricks to deal with things like feng shui, dragon veins, eight extraordinary meridians, tombs, etc.

Russian tomb robbers don't have these, so they can only look for war coordinates and massive amounts of information.

Even if the battlefield is found, there may not be any results. It depends on how many people died there and whether they were buried on the spot.

If there is a battlefield but no cemetery, it is useless to look for it, so luck plays a big role.

After finding the graves of soldiers who were not properly buried, they dug up the graves and sold the medals and equipment in their graves to merchants.

The highest-end items are weapons and equipment like tanks and cars, as well as items used by celebrities.
A well-preserved Panzer IV (H) tank, known as the "German Warhorse", was sold for $250 million.

Some tomb robbers, after looting everything, simply abandoned the remains of the soldiers they dug out in the wilderness.

How many soldiers died on the battlefields of Russia? Millions or even tens of millions, who can count them?

The diggers dug up everything, regardless of whether it belonged to the German army or their own soldiers, as long as it was valuable.

After 1991, it became fashionable to buy Soviet-era items in antique shops and on the roadside, whether they were medals, flags, party membership cards, watches, statues, or large hanging portraits.

Lucky diggers may even find the German arsenal, and any item you dig out will make you a fortune.
