Chapter 74 Destroyed overnight(1/2)

"By the way, you can call me boss from now on."

Duke said suddenly.

Compared with the unfamiliar title of "Viscount", Duke thinks "Boss" is more down-to-earth and sounds richer.

"Yes! Boss!"

Everyone quickly changed their words.

At this time, Alyssa, Big Scar and others came down, pushing a small cart with heated canned meat on it.

Smelling the alluring fragrance, everyone swallowed subconsciously.

"These are cans from the ruins. I guess you may not eat them often, so I'm going to treat you all today."

Duke greeted him, and everyone was not polite and trotted over quickly, including Alger.

Everyone looked forward to it, and saying "I don't eat it often" is really flattering them, because they haven't eaten it at all!

It is rare to find canned food that is so well preserved. Even if they find it, they are reluctant to eat it and sell it to the noble men in the city.

After all, this stuff is so expensive that it’s not cost-effective to eat it yourself.

The reason why the price is so expensive is because the canned meat, canned vegetables, canned fruits, etc. are all made from animals and plants that existed before the Cataclysm Era.

In other words, these are unmutated foods.

Now, basically, both plants and animals have mutated, and it is basically impossible to eat such original food.

That's why the price of these relic cans is so expensive.

Of course, the taste of these cans is indeed very good. After all, there is no harm without comparison. The taste of food in Shuguang City is really hard to describe in words.

Seeing everyone carrying hot cans, Duke suddenly looked forward to his next trip to the ruins.

But Duke also knows that shelter is something that is completely elusive.

He had asked No. 2 before if he could help him find a shelter.

Number 2 told him that it did not have distribution maps of all shelters, but Number 1 might have such a thing.

But it is not impossible. After the research during the period after it was launched, it is not difficult to find a shelter.

That is to go to a place with a lot of black fog!

Duke was a little surprised when he heard this answer. He didn't understand what the relationship between the black fog and the shelter was, but No. 2 told him that it was the fact and that the two were indeed related to a certain extent.

Just like the No. 39 shelter last time, it was excavated because there was a lot of black fog here, and it was noticed by people. After the black fog reduced, everyone discovered the shelter inside.

.

Although the specific reason is not yet clear, the fact is that as long as you go to a place with a lot of black fog and thick black fog, you can find a refuge.

Of course, the premise is that you have the ability to enter.

Number 2 deduced several places through the black fog, and more than 90% of them might have shelters, but the black fog there has not dissipated, so it is definitely impossible to go there for the time being.

In this regard, Duke was helpless. He could only hope that a wild refuge would be born.



Heping District Police Department.

Blanche looked at the helpless Officer Richard in front of her, her chest heaving with anger.

No matter how many nice things she said or how many benefits she promised, this Officer Richard always looked like he didn't care.

This gave her a feeling of powerlessness.

I'm not afraid that you, the lion, will open your mouth, but I'm afraid that you won't want anything!

It's winter now, but Blanche is still wearing a thin and slim-fitting brown dress. Her beautiful figure is perfectly displayed. Blanche calmly pulls the skirt down, revealing her delicate

neck and a snow-white ravine.

She looked at Officer Richard with a charming look in her eyes, and said in a coquettish tone:

"Officer Richard, just give me a hint~ Really, just say whatever you want!"

While talking, Blanche wanted to grab Richard's hand.

But Richard quickly retracted his hand, and then quickly turned his head to block this temptation.

"Miss Blanche, I really don't know the origin of this person. I don't have enough authority. Only our superiors know about this kind of thing. You can ask our superiors..."

"But your commander said before that he can just contact you if anything happens. Besides, I can't contact your commander now!"

Blanche said angrily.

If she could contact the other party's commander, why would she want to find Richard?

"Then there's nothing I can do..."

Richard grimaced, as if he really tried his best.

Seeing that Richard refused to take any advice, Blanche really had no choice but to say:

"Then let me make sure again. When you helped our brothers in the hyena gang collect the bodies, they were all naked? Didn't they carry anything with them?"

When talking about this issue, Richard smiled bitterly:

"Ms. Blanche, it is impossible for our Metropolitan Police Department to tamper with taxpayers' belongings. Even for death row prisoners, we will give their belongings to their families, so you can rest assured. As a police officer of Dawn City, I am

I won’t lie to you.”

"Well, I'll trouble you today."

Blanche tidied her clothes. She dressed up specially today and wore something more tempting. She had been freezing all the way here, but it was of no use at all.

She planned to go to No. 4 Ping An Street to investigate in person and see if she could find anything. After all, this was a task assigned to her by the gang leader. She had not completed it for so many days. If she continued to delay it, she would probably be fed to mermaids!

"No trouble, answer taxpayers' questions. This is what we should do."

Richard stood up and said.

Blanche twisted her waist and left the Ping An District Police Department.

After putting her in the car, Officer Richard snorted coldly and returned to his small office.

At this time, there was one more person in the office, it was his young apprentice and assistant Jeffrey.

"Master, you..."

Jeffrey wanted to say, "You didn't agree to her," but when he thought about it, it seemed inappropriate to say so, so he quickly shut up.

As soon as Richard saw the look in Jeffrey's eyes, he knew what he meant.

He sighed and said:

"So in your eyes, I am this kind of person..."

"no no!"

When Jeffrey heard what Richard said, he was startled and quickly waved his hand.

"I know you are still a little angry about what happened last time, but you have to understand that although we may seem glamorous, there are many things we cannot control ourselves."

Richard shook his head and said.

What happened last time was that Duke killed the hyena gang intruders, but the Metropolitan Police chose to act in a discordant manner.

According to Jeffrey's idea, he should take the opportunity to arrest the others in the Hyena Gang. After all, breaking into a noble house at night is a relatively serious crime.

In his eyes, the Hyena Gang is not a good thing. There was no evidence before, but now there is evidence. Why not take advantage of this?

Even though the Hyena Gang is not within their jurisdiction, the Metropolitan Police Department arrests people. As long as there is an arrest warrant, there is no problem in arresting people across districts.

As a result, Jeffrey's arrest warrant application was rejected. He went to find Richard, but Richard did not speak for him, which instantly extinguished his enthusiasm.

This is why he looked ugly when he went to No. 4 Ping'an Street with Jeffrey. He didn't want to go at all and even felt a little sorry for Viscount Duke and the badge on his hat.

"Master, there must be someone above this hyena gang, right?"

Now that Richard mentioned this matter, Jeffrey didn't hesitate and asked directly.

Richard was silent for a moment and did not answer.

But without denying it, it is already the answer.

Jeffrey was not stupid, he reacted instantly, and he felt a little uncomfortable.

But he quickly thought of something and asked quickly:

"Then since the Hyena Gang has a strong background, why didn't you agree to her? Since that woman wants information about No. 4 Ping An Street, why don't you just give it to her?"

Hearing Jeffrey's somewhat angry words, Richard smiled.

"If you do this, wouldn't you betray Viscount Duke? I am not willing to face the wrath of a viscount, and he is also a viscount of the Elvis family!"

"That……"

Jeffrey was a little crazy. He didn't help this or that. He really didn't know what Charlie was thinking.

Richard patted him on the shoulder and said:

"There's not much we can do. Sometimes it's best to choose to do nothing. And you don't have to worry about Viscount Duke. He's a Viscount of the Elvis family. What do you think a hyena gang can do to him?"

Like? You have a lot to learn, not just catching criminals."

Richard didn't say anything. Although the Hyena Gang couldn't do anything to Duke, a word from the people above them might make Richard's position unsafe.

So even though he knew that standing with Duke was definitely the best choice, Duke was not his boss after all... He still chose not to help each other. He had a family to take care of and couldn't take risks.

After listening to Richard's words, Jeffrey fell into silence, not knowing whether he understood or not.

Richard suddenly said again:

"However, it can be seen from Blanche's words just now that they seem to be looking for something? And it seems to be very important... In this way, Jeffrey, you can find a chance to meet Viscount Duke!"
To be continued...
