"doctor."
In the office of Virgil's gang, at this moment, Litt, Virgil and the doctor were in the room.
"What's wrong?" The doctor sat on the sofa, picking his fingers, and asked Xiang Litt.
"Why did you kill all those people? I said before that in order to lure Mudrick out, we have to show enough sincerity, right?"
"It's okay. Didn't you capture a few people alive?" The doctor smiled and said, "I only killed four people, but you captured nearly ten people here."
"Besides, even if we kill them all, will it affect whether Mudrick will come to the meeting? He doesn't know how many people we have."
"This is of a different nature!" Litt quickly corrected.
"If I were Mudrick, I would see this situation and know that not all of my brothers were safe and some had been killed. I would definitely be very dissatisfied."
Virgil's injury had not yet healed. He sat on the sofa on the other side and watched the two people arguing.
"What if I say that those people deserve to die?" the doctor said, looking up at Leete.
"I have killed many people over the years, but I only killed those who deserved to be killed."
"You mean, you can tell whether a person should be killed or not through your judgment?"
"Yes." The doctor nodded. "I only have three questions. Have you ever killed anyone? If so, how many people have you killed? Do you think the people you killed deserved to be killed?"
"If they can't answer these three questions, or are hesitant and lying, I can tell. Similarly, if they truly feel that they have a clear conscience, then I won't kill them."
"To be honest, if you, Master Lit, hadn't already captured those people, I would have to interrogate them one by one. By then, with the work done by the Iron Wolf Mercenaries, I'm afraid none of them would survive."
As he said this, the doctor handed the video magic stone to Lit, and then walked to the door.
"If you kill someone, you should be prepared to be killed." The doctor said. "Master Li Te, if I'm not mistaken, you haven't killed anyone yet, right?"
"It's great, I don't have to bear the pain of killing someone."
"I hope your hands can remain clean after this." He sighed and opened the door.
"Of course, the most important thing is the heart." The doctor pointed to his heart, then walked out of the room and closed the door.
"Master Lit, you don't need to care about what the doctor says." Virgil said this and looked at Lit worriedly.
After a brief contact, Virgil had already formed a simple judgment of the doctor's character.
"Don't let other people's comments influence your mentality, Master Li Te," he said.
"I"
Lit looked at the video magic stone that the doctor handed to him, clenched his fist, then picked it up and injected magic power into it.
Then, Litt and Virgil saw the detailed images of each contract recorded by Mudrick presented in the recording magic stone.
Looking at those contracts, from the initial escort of the caravan, to the mid-term rescue of hostages, and then to the final assassination and poisoning.
It can be said that this is the degeneration of a regular mercenary group into an underground mercenary group.
But there is no way to avoid this kind of depravity. After all, this kind of work can make the brothers of the entire mercenary group live a carefree life for a month or two. No one can resist such temptation.
Of course, if it were just for living, the Iron Wolf Mercenary Group’s business arrangements in this regard should be arranged at intervals of longer duration.
That was true in the beginning.
But later, the Iron Wolf Mercenary Group began to frequently accept missions such as assassination, poisoning, kidnapping, and warning.
Even Litt saw the most shocking contract details in it.
A nobleman asked the Iron Wolf Mercenaries for help to kidnap the daughter of a merchant in the city, whom he had taken a fancy to.
It would be fine if he just kidnapped a slave or a woman, but the key point is that this noble man seemed to have some serious illness and made a special note in the contract details:
[Don't worry about this lady's wishes. If she resists strongly, I will train her to be a bitch who will actively open her legs when a man comes. I don't care whether the goods I receive in the end are pure or not. I just want a tool to relieve my sexual desire.]
Lit could even imagine what the daughter of the wealthy merchant had been through. As a woman, she had a stronger ability to empathize and her body had begun to tremble slightly.
It was clearly just a baron's family. As a member of a duke's family, she didn't dare to trample on their lives at will, but the other party did such a dark thing.
This time, Litt truly saw what kind of group of people most of the nobles in the empire were, rotten to the core.
At the end of the scene, the recording stone is given to the ring worn by the doctor.
Lit looked at the ring and found it very familiar. He thought about it and then realized that he also had a similar ring.
She touched the storage ring on her finger.
The language of this lens is self-explanatory.
Although the storage ring is relatively precious, as the leader of the Iron Wolf Mercenary Group, Mudrick definitely has such a ring. The things he keeps in his office alone are already so exciting, and there must be more important information in his storage ring.
Thinking of this, Lit knew where to make further progress next.
……
It's not that Mudrick didn't try to find the police station in the imperial city, but the primary purpose of the police station was to serve the nobles and wealthy businessmen living in the central city. Although he was the leader of a mercenary group and had a lot of money in name, he was always looked down upon by others. They didn't think that Mudrick was the kind of person who could get in touch with their circle.
Similarly, the Public Security Bureau had received many reports about the Iron Wolf Mercenary Group before, saying that the mercenaries of the Iron Wolf Mercenary Group were acting recklessly, gathering together to drink and fight. The impression of the Iron Wolf Mercenary Group was already bad, and now hearing that the troublemakers of the Iron Wolf Mercenary Group were missing, they were overjoyed.
In the eyes of the sheriffs of the police station, this was a typical case of gangsters robbing gangsters. Gangster matters should be resolved using gangster methods, and whoever seeks help from the white side will inevitably be met with ridicule.
Although Mudrick was very dissatisfied,
There's nothing I can do. I've done so many bad things in the past that even the sheriffs dislike me.
If I mess with the sheriff, I'll be really finished. Although I can beat him up for the first time, but then the eighth-level boss from the Imperial City Security Team will come and I'll be dead.
Not to mention that there is a legendary ninth-rank boss guarding the imperial city. One hundred of me are not enough for that ninth-rank boss to kill.
……
Imperial Hotel, Orson stood on the fourth floor, overlooking the surrounding streets. The area around the Imperial Hotel was the most prosperous core urban area of Saint Laurent City.
Not far from the core city, you can see the magnificent palace walls and the iconic Imperial Cathedral.
Here, there is a permanent security office on every street, with sheriffs patrolling on a regular basis.
This place is different from ordinary urban areas and slums. Here you can only see prosperity and order.
Anyone who is dressed a little more simply will be stopped by the on-duty sheriffs when entering this street.
"How about it? The scenery here is nice, right?" Orson said, looking at the doctor standing beside him.
"It's really good." The doctor nodded. "It would be even better if we could go up to the church bell tower and take a look."
"Unfortunately, I may not have such a good relationship with that place." Orson said this and smiled. "Otherwise, I should be able to take you to have a look."
"How's the progress with Litt?" Orson asked.
Although Orson said that he would leave all the matters to Litt, he was like an old mother and couldn't let go of his worries.
After all, even though I kept convincing myself in my heart that Leeteuk was the protagonist and could grow up without me, I shouldn't worry about Leeteuk.
However, there was a voice inside that objected to that idea.
What if in this world line, Leeteuk is not the protagonist?
In other words, no matter which world line, there is no protagonist. Was it because Leeteuk in the previous book finally grew up after experiencing some things and suffering a lot of hardships?
And now, with her help and care, Li Te has been going smoothly all the way. If she is suddenly given a difficult task, what should she do if she makes a mistake?
Can you afford the consequences?
Therefore, although he was reluctant to admit it, Orson still had to say that he might really be raising Lit as his daughter.
As the saying goes, too much care leads to confusion.
When Orson thought about Litt's affairs, he couldn't help but let his mind run wild.
After all, the one who surprised him at the beginning was Lit.
Facing the wolf pack that day, just when Orson wanted to help Litt resolve the problem, Litt successfully crossed the level and killed the wolf king.
But in the final analysis, that was because Orson was guarding by his side, and the opponent was just a third-level wolf king, whom he could kill easily.
Now the situation is really different.
Mudrick is a seventh-level warrior. Although he is also a seventh-level warrior, he cannot guarantee Litt's 100% safety.
Even though the probability of Leet encountering an accident was only 0.1 percent, Orson couldn't help but worry.
There is no way. It seems to be due to his personality. Orson is unwilling to do things that he is not sure of, or in other words, he is unwilling to put the safety of those around him out of his control.
"I got some information from the Iron Wolf Mercenary Corps' headquarters. It records the accounts of the Iron Wolf Mercenary Corps since its establishment, as well as specific contract details." The doctor said this and touched his nose.
"I found some information in it, and I wrote down some frequently appearing names." The doctor said this and handed Orson a note.
"After all, it takes a hefty commission to get an agent to help place a commission." The doctor smiled at Orson.
"I know, the middleman makes a profit from the price difference." Orson smiled upon hearing this. "The nobles will first arrange this matter for their subordinates, have them find an agent, and then entrust the agent to place the order."
"But some of the things that seem trivial to the subordinates require them to pay commissions to the agents, which is a bit jealous."
"So, they will contact the mercenary group directly and take the 'kickbacks' that originally belonged to the agents, right?" said the doctor.
"Smart." Orson nodded after hearing this. "As expected, I feel much more relieved when I leave this matter to you."
Then he looked at the names written on it.
In addition to several code names that seem to be agents, the name of Lodi appeared many times, which was very
Conspicuous.
"Just right." The doctor said at this time: "I seem to have been rejected by Master Li Te, and I still have some free time to investigate this person. How about arranging for me to investigate first?"
"Why are you rejected by her?" Orson became interested when he heard this. Instead of agreeing directly, he asked the reason.
"You're asking even though you already know the answer." The doctor shrugged, looking a little unhappy. "I have so much blood on my hands, I can't talk to those white rabbits who have never killed anyone. They think it's wrong for me to kill people, there must be a better way, so what can I do?"
"Okay then." Orson nodded. "But if you insist on talking about murder, isn't there blood on my hands?"
"You're different." The doctor shook his head and looked at Orson with a wicked smile. "You may not have blood on your hands, but your heart is not good."
"You don't have blood in your heart, do you?"
"You know what I mean." said the doctor.
"Okay, okay, since you've helped Litt to this extent, let her take over the rest." Orson said this and sighed.
"However, if you encounter any resistance, don't investigate further. Safety is still the priority."
"I know." The doctor nodded, then turned around and prepared to leave.
"Oh, by the way, Litt and the others seemed to have said that they would meet Mudrick in the forest outside the city in two days. It's up to you whether to go or not." After the doctor said this, he left.
"Two days later?" Orson thought for a moment and touched his chin.
This timing is somewhat sensitive.
……
The next day, Li Te finally returned to school and resumed his normal life.
"Orson, I'm back. Did you miss me?" In the evening, Litt rushed into the room excitedly, and then saw Olivia and her sister and Orson sitting at the dining table eating.
There was no other way. Orson was busy outside these two days, but he had promised Olivia that he must go home for dinner. So, Olivia had a legitimate reason to use Orson's kitchen directly, and even took the initiative to clean Orson's room when Litt was not around.
"Uh..." Litt's brain froze as he looked at the scene.
The other three were also stunned, and then Olivia was the first to react.
She didn't know yet that Lit was actually a girl. Since she and Orson had already established a relationship, there was no way Lit would come between them again.
In this way, she not only took care of Litt, her future brother-in-law, but also took care of Orson's face. She still pretended to be a good sister-in-law in front of Litt.
"Leet, you didn't tell me you were coming back today." Olivia stood up with a smile. "Leet, please sit down first. I'll go get your tableware."
"No, I can get it myself." Li Te changed his shoes and said politely. "Besides, this is my dormitory, I must remember it best."
In order to save Orson's face and avoid embarrassing him, Litt did not choose to fall out with Olivia at this time, but smiled in the same way.
Only Lianka inexplicably felt that there was something else between the two people's words, as if they were fighting openly or secretly.
Orson certainly knew the two women's feelings for him at this point, but he was relieved when he saw Leete's reaction.
It seems that at least Li Te took his words to heart.
