Chapter 186 The black street next to the red street
"Is he agreeing?" Regana came to Nesser's side and asked.
"Probably." Nasser turned around, looked at the ignited carriage, and glanced at the slightest.
It is already midnight now, and if there is no carriage, it will take at least noon tomorrow to walk to the acorn collar.
If Ness and the others were going to walk, it would be too slow.
Collect the relics of the mercenaries, especially the bottle was poured on the ground, and there was a pot of flame flowing out from the bottle.
I have to say that Huang Heiya died a little unfairly, and she trusted her teammates too much, and was shot by Sofia with an arrow.
The same is true for Celia and the others. He believed that Huang Heiya could drive the flames and protect them, but he did not expect that after Huang Heiya's accident, the flames would kill them instead.
"Take us back to Odd City first. Fortunately, we are not far away, so we can also go to see the so-called black street." Naiser said to the groom.
The so-called black street comes from the red street.
However, the reason why it is called a black street is not because it is like a red street, even if it falls, the red lights will shine at night, but because there are a lot of black lives there.
The city of Odd is not calm. As the largest city in the Odd District, it also has a powerful garrison. The local army and the Third Corps are all stationed here, so there can be no major riots.
In this environment, commercial trade is extremely prosperous, and various aristocrats support or simply build their own chambers of commerce and conduct various commercial transactions.
But an environment cannot only have positive things, and the needs between people can never be all on the surface, especially when huge interests are involved.
The lower the bottom line of things like business, the better it is to make money. Without legal constraints, most chambers of commerce can be hacked to death dozens of times.
Even if there are legal constraints, the chamber of commerce will test the unclear laws step by step, and then try every means to exploit them.
In this case, the emergence of the black street is actually inevitable.
Here you can see the gathering of professionals, prostitutes, pickpockets, mercenaries, killers, wanted criminals, intermediaries, merchants selling prohibited goods, etc., which can be said to be a real place to hide dirty things.
When a good person enters here, he will be exploited in less than three days and will be eaten by the big wolf dog at the intersection of the street.
And if he can survive for three days, then he will never have anything to do with good people anymore.
The civilians in the city who want a stable life are all staying away from the black streets, and those who long to get everything are pouring into it one after another.
After almost an hour of walking, the three of them finally arrived at Red Street.
Sisef's watch shop has closed and no one knows where they have gone.
And the Black Street is actually not far from the Red Street.
Running in from an alley next to Red Street, passing by a terrible garbage dump, turning over and entering a false iron door, they seemed to have entered another world.
As soon as the three of them walked in, several beggars of seven or eight years old surrounded him, reaching out their hands as if they wanted something.
However, it is called begging, but it is actually theft. With the cover of several people, a four or five-year-old child mixed in the crowd and reached out to wipe Ness' pocket.
The vitality field opened slightly, slapped his dirty hands away, and the little beggars dispersed and disappeared in an instant in the streets and alleys.
Others were not surprised by this kind of thing, and some people whistled at Regana, staring straight at her torn skirt, and their thighs were vaguely visible below.
Then Naser looked over, and the whistleman coughed suddenly, his face turned red, and his eyes instantly stopped.
"Please come with me here." The coachman is very wise and knows the rules here.
"The Ronnie family has some business here, selling oak hearts and a series of medicinal materials, which are things that many witch doctors need to use."
Those things are not banned, but they are easier to sell on black streets, because most of the people entering black streets are professionals.
There is more of the entertainment industry and a trading ground for a series of luxury goods and expensive goods on the other side of the Red Street. Some resources are better sold on the other side of the Black Street.
The black street is not bright, and a few lit oil lamps provide all the light. In the darkness, a group of people may lurk at any time. When you are not paying attention, you will rush forward directly, then send the dagger into your body, and then exploit you.
However, these people who were lying in the dark streets basically had their eyesight. After Naiser came in, they showed their skills. They were not sure and would not cause trouble for themselves.
The Ronnie family’s shops are in a corner of the Black Street. There is actually no sign of the Ronnie family on it, and there is actually no sign in this place.
Even if something with a mark is worn out, it will be worn out immediately. If it is not worn out, it will cause trouble.
The coachman has been here a few times, and as soon as he enters, he talks with his friend, and soon comes to greet Naser.
"Young Master Naiser!" The pharmacy manager was a middle-aged man who was blind and had a thin figure, but his life was quite strong and he had no name. Everyone usually called him Zuo Dazhe.
The blind man Zuo respectfully lifted out a brand new chair and let Neser sit on it. Then he patted the friend next to him, gave him some money to buy something, and then explained some of the situation to Neser.
"Do you know the third-handed Kito?" Nesser went straight to the point and asked about his concerns.
Sofia and the others took on the task from the third-hand Quito.
"I know, those who work in the intermediary have some channels to release various tasks." After hearing Sophia and others take the task from Sandra Quito to intercept Nesser, Zuo said directly, "But if you want to trouble them, I guess they have run away now."
There are many entrances and exits of the Black Street, which is why there are always people who mistakenly get into it.
Smarter people will leave one or two eyeliners at several main entrances, and once there is a problem, they will immediately escape.
The characteristics of Nesser and Regana are quite obvious. New faces appear on the Black Street, and the third-handed Quito will probably know immediately. Then, they who are ready to run away all year round have mostly disappeared from the Black Street, sneaking and disguising their identities, and reaching another secret stronghold of theirs.
Next, they either hang out in Odd and wait until everything is settled before choosing to go back to the Black Street. If the winner is Nesser, they might also use their connections to send apologies to ask Nesser for forgiveness, or they would go to other areas overnight and leave Odd.
However, Nesser guessed that it should be the former, and the locations in each place were counted. The third-handed Kito accumulated so many connections here and was able to even post a task of intercepting and killing noble people. Some people dared to accept it, which means that he has a lot of assets here.
These assets are not protected by the law. Once he escapes completely, everything will disappear.
Therefore, he is unlikely to run away. If this third-handed Quito is really capable, some nobles will soon come and invite Nesser to the banquet, and then tell him not to kill him.
"A truly smart intermediary will understand that the connections in his hands are his greatest wealth and the greatest guarantee. They have handled too many secret events, and they are even likely to be dealing with unknown secrets of a nobleman."
"If the reputation is good enough, those nobles who have connections with Quito will become his protection net."
"I understand." Nesser could see through this. In addition to apologizing, he would even receive a scapegoat that he was responsible for this matter and then die.
But Nesser would never receive the news that the person who posted the task behind the scenes was.
The black streets also have to follow rules, and even at some point they have to be trustworthy. Quito does not open his mouth. Those nobles who have let him do things will protect him. If he opens his mouth, he will have to die.
It is impossible for an intermediary who has been in trouble for so many years to understand this.
The guy who went out before brought back a few sets of clothes, obviously he bought them. Naiser's clothes were woven with silk thread, but Regana's ones were not.
"Young Master Naiser will take a break here first. I will arrange a vehicle to take you back tomorrow."
The blind Zuo arranged a room for Nass and others, and then left.
