After a small conflict with Wei Jier over the thief incident, two more things happened.
The first thing, for the entire Wenning District, may be just a trivial matter that not many people know about. For Nolan Ji'er, it is just a dead person who was imprisoned in the dungeon under the brothel.
He's just a bad old man for many years.
Because the food delivered to the cell remained untouched for three consecutive days, the new cook who was responsible for delivering food stretched his neck and carefully observed the old man in the cell. However, he found that something was wrong and quickly called the cell leader.
, and finally even alerted Steward Midel and Commander Galt.
But in the eyes of other people in the brothel, no matter how loud the incident was, it was just the death of an insignificant old man. No one knew the old man's name, the reason why he was in prison, or even the prostitute.
Even the leader of the museum, Galt, could not explain the origin of this old man and why he was imprisoned underground in Nolan Ji'er.
The old man had been locked up underground in the brothel for an unknown number of years. Perhaps the old man had been locked up there before Nolan Ji'er was transformed into a brothel and was the headquarters of the Golden Lock of Crow.
However, no one cares about the old man's identity or his past. As the old man dies, all the truth disappears with his burning corpse.
Only Su Zuo, after hearing the news, was so shocked that he fell to his knees and took the wooden box containing the old man's ashes from Galt's hand. But even Su Zuo at that time could not say that he was not without grief, but he also
Far from being shocked.
Su Zuo didn't expect that the old man would leave like this. In less than five months, he would already be gone. Even though he had seen the fatigue on the old man before, Su Zuo still didn't expect that the old man would leave.
Got so fast.
Galt, who personally took the key from the commander's room and opened the magic cage, told Su Zuo the last scene of the old man——
The old man had a smile on his face and walked peacefully.
"This is all his manuscripts." Along with the urn, Galt piled thick papers of different sizes, nearly one meter high, in front of Su Zuo. The manuscript papers starting from the bottom were even already
It started to turn yellow, "We didn't sort it out, we just bundled it all together, so the order is probably messed up. You can sort it out yourself later."
Su Zuo looked at the pile of manuscript paper in silence. He did not shed tears. He knew that the old man's biggest wish was to complete this pile of paper. The reason why he left with a smile was probably because he had finished it. After staring for a while, Su Zuo
Looking at Galt: "Do you really want to give it to me? Although I haven't read them all, the things written by my teacher must be very precious——"
"Since it belongs to your teacher, it should be kept by you as an apprentice. Is there any problem?" Before Su Zuo could finish, Galt interrupted him, "The entire Nolan Ji'er, except for you, is all
They are a group of rough warriors, no one can understand these things, what elements, resonance, etc., no one can understand."
Su Zuo nodded silently. As the candidate for the next leadership of the Golden Lock of Crows, he did have the value for Galt to train him like this. But in other aspects, he couldn't figure it out, so he couldn't help but ask Galt.
Erte confirmed: "Commander Galte, why do you know that my teacher is a mage, but there is still no other mage besides me in the Golden Lock of Crow?"
"There are mages among the members of the Golden Lock of Crows." Galt corrected a cognitive error of Su Zuo, "It's just that there were no mages in Nolanji. As early as when new members were recruited and screened at the beginning,
Children with sufficient magic qualifications have been sent to the big leaders in the upper-level districts. Most of the people left in Wenning District are mediocre magic talents with mediocre qualifications and no value in training."
So Su Zuo, a slave-turned-cook, took advantage of him... But Su Zuo can understand the big leader's thoughts. After all, compared to an old man with a white beard who is immersed in writing all day long, the upper-level area
Perhaps there is a more systematic and trustworthy training channel.
Su Zuo held the pile of separated manuscripts in his hands and couldn't help but hug the wooden box in his arms a little tighter.
.
The second thing is that the war that has lasted for nearly a year and a half has finally come to an end - with an expeditionary force of 130,000, the Silver Rose Archduke finally withdrew his troops from the southern border!
It is said that in this conflict, the imperial army did not gain much benefit. Although they regained two pieces of rebel territory, they lost far more troops than the remnants of Nanling.
At least 20,000 imperial soldiers were buried in foreign lands, never to return to their hometowns.
But even if the empire did not return victorious, even if they just heard the news that Lord Silver Rose was returning, all the demons and monsters that were once ready to stir up in various places in Nanling stopped in an instant.
On the day when the news reached White Rose City, even ordinary robbers and thieves couldn't help but tremble, recalling the terror that once dominated the glory of the Silver Rose, and the horror that lurked in the shadows of the sewers.
humiliation.
However, these have nothing to do with Nolan Ji'er. In this year, Nolan Ji'er did not do anything evil worthy of being remembered by the Grand Duke of Silver Rose. Even the only more dangerous Wings of Truth incident
, and survived because of Su Zuo's activeness and the safe return of his wife and princess.
As Cromwell said, the governance of Wenning District is a long-term problem. The Public Security Bureau needs the cooperation of the Crow's Gold Lock, and the Crow's Gold Lock also needs to use the shelter of the Public Security Bureau in order to survive in the governed community.
Before the Duke of Silver Rose in Ning District was easily eradicated, it was transformed into a legal and formal organization.
However, the only problem is that among the three strongholds in Wenning District, Lower District, Upper District, and Crow's Golden Lock, only Nolan Ji'er is willing to fully cooperate with the actions of the Public Security Bureau and transform into a legal organization.
"The Crow's Golden Lock was originally just a gray organization that dealt in flesh and blood business, human trafficking and smuggling. Compared to running a legal business, the two old guys, the leader and the second commander, have been completely drained by the extravagant life of wine and sex.
, is stupid and ignorant, and it is impossible to agree with our ideas." As he walked, Galte explained to Su Zuo.
Galt didn't pay any attention to Suzo's steps beside him. He took long strides with his long boots, and his black cloak like crow's wings fluttered over the snow-covered streets as he walked towards the passage.
Su Zuo on the side had to half walk and half run at a quick pace to keep up with his pace. As time went by, Su Zuo seemed out of breath even when he spoke: "Ha... Lord Galt, what do you mean?
...In this meeting, are you planning to persuade the other two commanders?"
"I don't want to repeat it again..." Galt frowned, a little dissatisfied with Su Zuo's delayed reaction, "I don't have much to say to those two old losers."
"Ahaha..." Su Zuo couldn't help but smile bitterly. Originally, in this position, the person who listened to Galt's complaints all day long was the manager Midel, but since Su Zuo came back from the church, this candidate has changed.
Became Su Zuo.
Su Zuo calmed down his mind that was disturbed by the walk and thought for a moment: "In other words, Leader Galt, are you planning to break up with the big leader and the others?"
"The reaction was not slow this time." Galt glanced at Su Zuo approvingly, "But to correct me, it's not that I broke with them, but that they broke with me. Ever since the leader tacitly allowed the second commander to take Anzina and the others away
, I just have nothing to say to them.”
When they mentioned the dead prostitutes, both Galt and Suzo fell silent.
After walking in silence for a while, Su Zuo asked another question: "Commander Galt, what do you think is the purpose of the big leader and the second commander inviting you to attend the meeting this time?"
"Apart from asking me to wipe their butts, what else is possible?" Galt replied without thinking. He frowned and looked at the large collapsed cliff under the dusk with a worried expression. "Feldnan Expedition"
South Dorne is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for all the villains in White Rose City. Things that could only be thought about in secret before can be boldly tried while the owner is away. However, in other people's back gardens
After a lot of troubles, it was not until they heard that the owner of the garden was coming back that they remembered the terror of the owner of the garden again and felt scared. So it is normal to try every means to erase those stained records."
"Those two old guys must have done a lot of things that crossed the line. They were caught by the people from the public security station. Feldnan was not here, and the strength of the public security office and the city captain team alone did not dare to do anything to them.
, but now that Feldnan is back, as usual, the whole city must be liquidated, so they finally started to get anxious."
"So what the big leader and the others mean is to ask Galt to lead you to the Wenning District Public Security Bureau to check with the General Public Security Bureau, just in case?" Su Zuo understood Galt's meaning instantly.
"That's pretty much it." Looking into the distance, Galt walked quickly, "But now is not the time to fall out with those two old guys, so after some haggling, I will probably still have to help with this favor -
—So, I will tell you everything this time. Don’t let yourself slip at a critical moment like Cromwell did last time. Do you hear me clearly?”
"How could that happen?" Su Zuo scratched his head in embarrassment and laughed "ah ha ha ha".
He now entrusts the care of Qiluo to Lang Xue, and as Galt's assistant, he gradually begins to take over part of Nolan Ji'er's daily affairs. Unknowingly, he has also become familiar with Galt and Midel.
When they got to know each other, although they were still the same people, their sense of distance was much closer, and occasionally they would make some harmless jokes with each other.
