Chapter 42 Heroes, Thugs?(1/2)
More than ten days have passed since the riots. Order in the underground world has gradually been restored, and the situation in the area around the Warren Factory has been brought under control without further outbreaks.
Outside the black market, there were far fewer people on the streets than usual, but law enforcement patrols could be seen everywhere, as well as city-state guards.
The latest news came from the city-state parliament.
The Wallen factory incident was planned by the former speaker's secretary in collusion with the law enforcement team captain Mock and the dark forces. The former speaker failed to supervise and took bribes. He will be arrested and imprisoned. His secretary has committed suicide in fear of crime. Who else will participate in the future will be continued.
investigation.
In addition, it was also discovered that the former speaker's secretary colluded with black market criminal forces for human trafficking. The black market in this area is the largest criminal den, and was previously protected by the former speaker's secretary and the law enforcement team.
Now, the city-state council decided to honor the heroes who sacrificed their lives for this operation. They braved life and death and broke into the Warren Arsenal to uncover the conspiracy.
At the same time, the city-state parliament will never tolerate thugs and will carry out a large-scale purge operation against the dark forces in the black market!
For a time, the outside world was in an uproar.
However, the vast majority of the people at the bottom have long hated the black market. Many people are applauding this and hope to eradicate the criminal forces of the black market.
As for the deeper things behind it, the public did not think much about it.
Although they vaguely felt that something was wrong, they did not delve into it.
Or, they simply don't have the ability to delve deeper.
The previous anger has gradually subsided, and a lot of blood has been paid. Now the city-state councilors have given them an explanation.
What else can ordinary people in the underground world do?
Perhaps, we can only choose to forget it.
The black market has been completely blocked, and no news from the outside world has entered the black market.
People in the black market are still waiting for the dawn of light.
When the new Speaker takes office, everything should be restored after the incident is over, right?
…………
During this period, in addition to practicing in the training room, Xu Mo practiced controlling mechas. He became more and more proficient in controlling mechas. He even tried to turn on the source power device, which caused great commotion in the abandoned factory.
When the mecha source device is turned on, it means entering a combat state, which is somewhat different from the usual control. Xu Mo naturally has to get familiar with it in advance.
Occasionally he would go out to see what was going on outside when he had time. Many people in the black market believed that the blockade would be lifted, but he was not so optimistic. Especially when he saw the situation outside the blockade in the black market, he faintly smelled something unusual.
At this time, Xu Mo was ready to go out and take a look again.
"Brother Mo, take me with you. I also want to go out and get some air." Xiao Qi saw Xu Mo put on his cloak and said.
It's really boring to stay in the factory these days.
"Ask Sister Die." Xu Mo said to Xiao Qi, but he didn't have any objections.
Qin Zhong hasn't been staring at this place recently. It seems that he has other things to do.
"Okay." Xiao Qi looked at Ye Qingdie, who glanced at him and said, "Follow Xu Mo."
"Don't worry." Xiao Qi said with a smile, and the two of them walked out together.
The black market is as quiet as ever. Since the incident broke out, the black market is no longer as lively as before.
"Brother Mo, did you sleep well last night?" Xiao Qi asked Xu Mo while walking on the road.
"??"
Xu Mo looked at Xiao Qi with a puzzled look.
"Did you get up in the middle of the night?" Xiao Qi saw Xu Mo's eyes and continued.
Xu Mo understood immediately and ignored him.
"Brother Mo." Xiao Qi looked at Xu Mo mischievously: "Are you and Sister Die staying up late at night talking about life?"
"Ask Sister Die when you go back." Xu Mo said with a smile.
"If I dare to ask, I won't sneak out to ask you." Xiao Qi said: "Brother Mo, please satisfy my curiosity. Did something happen between you and Sister Die?"
"Guess." Xu Mo, who was walking in front, turned back and looked at Xiao Qi with a smile.
This kid is a bit curious.
"..." Xiao Qi became more curious and felt itchy in her heart.
It stands to reason that it is unlikely.
However, what kind of life can a lonely man and a widow talk about without sleeping in the middle of the night?
Xu Mo ignored Xiao Qi's continued questioning. He was just tired from practicing last night and saw that Ye Qingdie was not sleeping, so he went over and simply sat for a while.
But Xu Mo finally discovered that Xiao Qi is an optimist and can laugh no matter what the environment is. Even without a human body, he still smiles all day long, which shows how heartless he is.
As for whether he was trying to cover up his inner sadness, Xu Mo didn't know.
He thought of Mia and wondered if Mr. Batu had settled down in the main city of the city-state.
After this incident, the security in the main city should be better, right?
The two came to the ruins near the outside, and saw that the outside of the black market was still tightly sealed, and a large number of law enforcement teams and city-state guards appeared.
On the street outside the black market, a pure black car drove slowly. If Xu Mo saw it, he would find that the shape of this car is very similar to the one in the original world, but the overall streamline is more perfect, with a pointed front, like
It's like a chariot.
The gull-wing door opened, and a man of about thirty years old came down. Many people took the initiative to bow.
The man was wearing black clothes, with slightly sharp lines on his face and a strong aura.
"Secretary Han."
The chiefs of the city-state guards and law enforcement teams stepped forward. The person who came was the secretary of the new speaker, who was now considered a very popular figure.
Secretary Han nodded slightly and walked towards the black market. A figure wearing a black armor followed him into the black market and walked a certain distance without anyone following him.
"Have everything been arranged?" Secretary Han looked into the black market and asked the figure wearing black armor next to him.
"Yes." The other party nodded: "Does the Speaker have any instructions?"
"Execute as planned." Secretary Han said: "Of course, even if it is cleared, you still have to be cautious and don't show your true face in the future... Guard officer."
"Understood." The black armored figure nodded. Secretary Han turned around and gave instructions to the city-state guards and law enforcement team. Suddenly, the people around him glanced at the black armored figure curiously.
He is actually the Speaker's trusted bodyguard, and he will move around more if there is a chance in the future.
Secretary Han turned around and walked out of the black market, and left in a car.
The figure in black armor walked toward the crowd and said, "Start executing the mission."
"Yes, sir." Several people nodded, and the heavy mecha suddenly started and walked towards the black market. The ground shook violently.
Strong men from the city-state guards and law enforcement teams also stepped into it, holding weapons.
The ground of the black market shook violently.
In the distance, Xu Mo and Xiao Qi kept staring over there, watching the mechas coming in. Their expressions were not very good.
Xu Mo heard the conversation between the two, and stared at the figure in the black armor in the distance. He had a guess in his heart, which made him feel cold and biting.
"What are they going to do?" Xiao Qi's face also changed. Although he already knew, he still couldn't help but ask.
In the black market, people who were watching from a distance like them walked out. There was even a woman holding a teenage child, wearing rags, raising one hand, slowly walking towards the front, and said: "We just
Ordinary people in the black market who have never committed any crime, can we leave?"
"Poof..." A blue light shot directly through her head, and the woman fell down directly.
"Mom!" The young master next to him shouted desperately.
"Poof!" Another blue light shot through, piercing his heart.
"No..." Xiaoqi looked painful when he saw the scene in front of him. Didn't the new speaker take over to quell the riot?
Does it calm down like this?
They are just ordinary people.
The other people who walked out instantly panicked and began to flee. They had been frightened these days, hiding at home and not daring to go out, secretly observing what was going on outside.
Didn’t you expect that even they wouldn’t be spared?
Gunshots continued to be heard, lines of blood spattered, and heavy mechas headed into the black market to carry out firepower sweeps.
Xu Mo looked at the dark crowd. There were many people wearing armor among the people who came this time. After entering the black market, they began to disperse and implement the cleanup plan.
"Let's go." Xu Mo said.
The angry Xiao Qi couldn't hold back his anger and wanted to rush out to fight, but Xu Mo held him back.
The two of them retreated, and someone in the distance spotted a figure in armor chasing them, very fast.
"I'm going to kill him." Xiao Qi said coldly.
"There's no rush." Xu Mo sped up and ran away. The opponent pursued him even faster, the distance gradually got closer, and the knife in his hand was already raised.
Xu Mo suddenly turned around, his body drew an arc, his cloak flew out, and his sword unsheathed and swept out.
