Chapter 122 Lubacher and the Black Auction

Royd nodded heavily, "The information obtained by Jonah also contains relevant records. The time of Rubacher's establishment is very close to the establishment of the Crossbel Autonomous Prefecture."

"President Marconi is the fifth-generation leader now. It is said that he drove the fourth-generation president from his position by using the method of Koo."

"Well." Ryan said approvingly, "It's already good that you can understand this level. Marconi is an empire immigrant, so his position is inherently biased towards Ereponia. It is precisely because of this that he is very close to Speaker Halterman of the Imperial faction."

"Speaker Halterman..."

Ellie couldn't help but sigh when she said this person, "One of the two representatives of the government of Crossbeer, came from the famous Crossbeer family. His family was already active in this land during the imperial rule a hundred years ago. It is said that he has extraordinary relationships with some of the great nobles of the empire."

"It is his veto on the implementation of the reform case proposed by his grandfather in the state government for many years, which can be said to be the biggest obstacle to Crossbeer's improvement of state laws."

Ryan shrugged and said, "Halterman was won over by Prime Minister Osborne very early. His role is to act as a political messenger in Crossbell."

"Last year, the Prime Minister met with Haltermann privately, further showing the influence of the speaker to all walks of life in Kezhou."

"Well..." Ellie's face was a little gloomy. "After Prime Minister Osborne arrived in the autonomous prefecture, he saw the speaker and left in a hurry. He did not say hello to his grandfather from beginning to end. That incident caused quite a stir in the political circles of neighboring countries."

Ryan clapped his hands to interrupt Ellie's random thoughts and continued, "Although Marconi himself prefers the Imperial faction, his relationship with the Republic faction has not been very irresistible. In the area of ​​Closebell, he can be regarded as a person with a wide range of hands and eyes."

"The guards, police stations and even the senior officials of the state government have their connections. He is a veritable underground emperor in the land of Closebell."

"Although there was some turmoil due to the pressure of Black Moon some time ago, after Garcia introduced military warcraft, it has successfully widened the gap between the two sides and brought the underground competition back to a balance of power."

"It's true!" Randy shouted unwillingly with her head in her arms. "We finally found out the military dog ​​incident with Zeit's help. In the end, Rubacher was still put into practice. Are we just doing useless work?"

Ryan patted Randy on the shoulder and comforted him, "Learn to adapt. Crossbel is such an autonomous state with a weak position. Rubacher has already penetrated all walks of life in Kezhou and will be easily bailed even if he commits a crime. This is not the first time."

Royd frowned and asked, "Who is this Garcia...? We have seen him before while chasing the time of the intimidation letter. This person's momentum is quite amazing, and other members of Rubacher seem to respect him very much."

"Hmm?" Ryan looked at Randy with a weird expression. "You don't know his origin yet? This guy is from the "West Wind Brigade" one of the two strongest hunting corpses in the mainland. He used to be the company captain in the regiment and was very famous in some circles."

"Ah haha~" Randy smiled concealedly. "We have no contact with the Hunter Corps, so it's not surprising that we don't know his name."

‘Ha... Forget it, just be happy.’

"Anyway... since Garcia was poached by Marconi a few years ago to join Rubacher, this gang organization with relatively loose combat power is growing rapidly. Now they can see some clues when they can tie the Black Moon branch."

"Next... let's get to the main topic and talk about the Black auction."

The four people in the support department also looked tight and each of them showed a look of listening attentively.

"As you know, the auction items at the Black Auction are all stolen goods, and many of them are precious items stolen by various countries. They cannot even be clearly marked when exhibited on the surface."

Ryan looked at Royd with deep eyes and said, "For the upper class, the more precious things they are worth pursuing. Almost all the products at the Black Auction are fine products, and it is very suitable for collection by themselves or to transfer them to others."

"So... every year the Black Auction will involve a large number of nobles and wealthy business officials from surrounding countries secretly participating. This auction is also a secret social banquet in a certain way."

"Speaker Halterman is willing to lend his own residence to hold an auction, largely to bring closer relations with politicians from all over the country through this banquet."

Ryan sighed as he looked at the four of them gradually becoming gloomy and persuaded him, "This auction will be too much. I dare not act without any investigation. Don't run to break through with a fever."

"Of course..." Ryan showed a meaningful smile on his face. "It would be another matter if you can get an invitation letter to enter openly."

Before Royd could ask about the invitation, Ryan quickly changed the topic, "Okay! I can tell you the information so far. Next, please tell me about what happened to Ling's acquaintance in the afternoon?"

Tio tilted his head and recalled the afternoon scene. "Actually, I don't know much. Ling and I mistakenly entered the divination hall while chasing Mixi."

"According to the tourists, the diviner in the theme park seems to be very capable, and the divination results are very effective. Ling is very interested in divination, but when it is our turn in line... Ling saw the diviner's expression a little strange."

"When she left the divination hall, she said meaningfully, 'I didn't expect to meet an acquaintance in Closebell.'"

Tio finally made a summary, "It's probably that's it. After that, Ling pulled me to continue looking for Mixi everywhere. At that time, I didn't take this matter to heart... Is there anything wrong with that fortune teller?"

"A fortune teller..."

Ryan frowned and thought for a while, "Teo, is that fortune teller using tarot cards?"

"Well, it's indeed a tarot card. Unfortunately, I was pulled away by Ling before I could even tell the divination. Obviously..."

When Teo said the second half, he was obviously a little resentful. Ryan patted Maoluo's hair with amusement to express comfort.

"I probably have some speculation about that person's identity. I'll find an opportunity to go over and test it tomorrow."

Royd said with some concern, "Is it another dangerous person? Do you need our help?"

"If you want to say it's dangerous... it's really dangerous if she really goes crazy, but she doesn't know her motive yet, so let's go and ask in person first."

After Ryan asked, he stood up and said, "Okay, don't worry about this matter first. The association will be responsible for finding out her intentions. The support department should first consider tomorrow's work. The intensity is really great. Be mentally prepared."

Ryan finally rubbed the fluffy and soft hair of the god wolf under Zeit's white eyes, said goodbye to the thoughtful support department and left the building.
