Chapter 425: Familiar Fraud Techniques
From the narrative of Dilik and the village chief Truta, Ryan knew the whole story.
Unlike his father who is conservative in his style and intends to maintain the traditional village, Dilik is very worried about the increasingly withering status quo of the village. He wants to re-invigorate the vitality of Almolika Village through reforms.
But the village chief Truta firmly opposed his son's opinions. After many communications were not supported, Dilik decided to act alone in disappointment and anger.
Just then, a businessman who claimed to be a director of Quincy Dessert Company found him, named Minnis.
Minnis painted a big cake for Dilik, who claimed that Quincy intends to develop the bee field in Almolika Village and use the honey from the village to supply the new branch of Quincy Company to make pastries.
He told Dilik that the plan could significantly develop this small village based on agriculture, and Quincy also planned to build a pastry production plant in Almolika Village. For this reason, he needed to temporarily borrow the villagers' real estate certificates to communicate with the construction company.
When Ryan heard this, he immediately understood the other party's intentions.
Semlia, which has a relatively simple folk custom, is rare, but Ryan, who was born on Earth, has heard about similar fraud methods in various media all year round.
Coupled with this familiar crime pattern, Ryan quickly remembered the process of being deceived by Baron Capua's house that he had heard of in Rebs.
After hearing Ryan's doubts, Dilik smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Sure enough, the experienced guerrillas can see through the loopholes in it at a glance... After all, I am too eager to achieve success and have not checked Minnis' so-called sweet trading company plan in detail."
Village Chief Trut hugged his son's shoulder and comforted him, "You can't blame you all. If my fierce opposition forced you into a dead end, you wouldn't have taken the risk like this. I also need to reflect on this matter."
Although Ryan was very pleased that the father and son had reunited, he is now more concerned about the subsequent progress of the "Minnies" incident.
"Two, listen to your tone... That Minnis must have failed. What will happen to him?"
After the village chief of Truta came back to his senses, he said gratefully, "Thanks to everyone who supported the support department and lawyer Ian and Mr. Harold who took the time to catch up, Minnis' scam was exposed. Unfortunately... he finally released the monster and escaped with the villagers as hostages."
"Warcraft? Escape?"
Ryan asked thoughtfully, "Village Chief, do you think Minnes can control the monster? What does that kind of monster look like?"
"She looks..."
Both the village chief Truta and Dilik recalled that the village chief was older and obviously could not remember the scene at that time, but Dilik, who was directly threatened by the monsters, still remembered it clearly.
"It's a red cat monster wearing armor. It seems to have some black spots on its body. Maybe it's... a leopard?"
"Red Cat Warcraft...armor?"
A flash of inspiration flashed in Ryan's mind, and he had probably guessed the source of this monster.
"I understand. Congratulations to you father and son again for reconciliation. I wish you can work together to steadily advance the reform of the village."
After saying goodbye to Truta and Dilik, Ryan led Qiya away from the village chief's mansion.
On the way, Qiya looked at Ryan who took out the arc and asked curiously, "Ryan, do you know where those cats came from?"
After Ryan dialed a certain number, he squatted down and kissed Qiya on the face. "I guessed it almost. Maybe this time I can catch a prisoner who has been wanted for a long time."
...
Almost at the same time, after Royd and others visited Fran, Ilia and Inspector Donobon who were hospitalized, they accidentally heard bad news from Miss Serra at the front desk of the hospital.
“Medical devices and medicines are not shipped?”
Royd frowned and asked, "Why is this happening? Logically speaking, it is the time when these materials are needed the most, so the city government should give priority to it, right?"
Sera shook her head in confusion, "I don't know either. This batch of supplies was airlifted from Remifelia through his own connections. It should have been shipped at this time. I wonder if something happened on the way."
In the past year, due to the extremely high-intensity work of the Support Department, Royd and others have handled various cases and accumulated a lot of on-site experience.
Not to mention Royd, as search officers, even Randy, Ellie and others felt that this matter was a bit strange.
Sure enough, when Royd and others volunteered to come to Closebell Airport, an employee of the transportation company was anxiously discussing something with an airport ground staff member.
This transporter should be the person who was originally scheduled to transport the goods to the hospital. Royd remembered that he had dealt with Colin when he rescued him before, and it seemed that he was called Remus Transportation Company.
After some inquiry, the support department finally learned the whole story from the two of them. A business person wearing a green suit pretended to be a person who handed over the goods and intercepted the batch of medical supplies in advance.
"hateful!"
Noel said angrily, "I actually did this kind of thing in such an important period when everyone needs medical supplies the most!"
Royd turned to several team members and said, "Everyone, let's chase after me quickly, and you can't let that liar run away!"
"oh!"
When Royd and others followed the Dongulam Gate all the way, a very familiar guy came into their eyes.
"Minnis... should have guessed that it was you, the scum!"
After getting off the car, Royd and others surrounded Minnis, but in the end the guy was distracted from the car and ran away.
The Suv, who supported the korea, passed the distance under Noel's driving, followed the truck into the Dongulam hills.
As Minnes kept throwing grenades in front of him and interfering with Noel's driving, Royd and others watched Minnes' truck gradually flee far away anxiously.
"Not good..."
Royd frowned and said, "If he was allowed to escape into the city of Altaire, it would be troublesome. Without prior application and communication, we would not be able to carry out arrest operations within the territory of the Republic."
"boom!"
At this moment, Minnis's truck was forced to change direction by a long object falling from the sky and landing in the middle of the road, hitting the hill next to it.
Royd and others hurriedly got out of the car and surrounded Minnis, who was dizzy and quickly started a battle with the military monster released by Minnis.
On a low slope in the Dongulam hill, Ryan held Qiya and looked vigilantly at the four women in armor opposite him.
"The Saint and the Iron Crew... I didn't expect to meet you here. Thank you, Your Majesty, for stopping the Qude merchant."
"Haha~" the Holy Maiden of Steel wearing a helmet chuckled, "Since you are here, I should be considered as meddling in other people's business this time."
"where."
Ryan hid Qiya behind her, "Speedy" Du Bali looked at Qiya with a strange look. While curious and scrutinizing, there was a hint of desire in her eyes.
"If you hadn't forced Minnis to stop me, I would have to take some effort with my children... Shouldn't it be a loss for me to be a saint who has been praised by the Empire for more than 200 years? Just as noble as the rumor is."
The Saint of Steel did not intend to take Ryan's words, and the light of the teleportation array flashed at the feet of her and the three Iron Aircraft Team.
"We'll leave first, and maybe there will be many opportunities to deal with each other in the future. I hope you won't be as extreme as your ancestors and parents, and can always stay on the right path."
"Goodbye, descendants of Eutrus."
With this sentence, the four of them finally disappeared from the spot, and Ryan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
While Ryan picked up Qiya again, he looked at the disappearing position of the Saint's disappearing thoughtfully.
