It's strange, why is there no sound? It's impossible. Normally, such a big casino must be bustling with people coming and going, and the entrance to this secret passage is a room for storing things. Someone should be on duty here. How could there be no sound at all
Claude pushed up hard, and the bed board was lifted up a crack. There was a bit of an unpleasant feeling, because the room was dark and there was no light or movement outside. Claude directly opened the bed board and the person got out of the secret passage.
Not only was there no one in the lounge room with two beds, but there was also no one in the room with the utility rack outside. Claude simply cast a Pearl of Light, and then discovered that there was a thin layer of dust on the ground and furniture in the two rooms.
It seemed that the casino had not been opened for a long time and was abandoned. Claude was a little confused. It couldn't be because he made such a fuss on the New Year's Eve last time. Claude pulled the door, and sure enough, the door leading to the corridor on the second floor was locked from the outside.
This is wrong. Looking at the neatly arranged drinks, du ju and dishes on the three rows of shelves in the fag room again, Claude felt that it was not abandoned, but that it might be for some reason. It was temporarily sealed and the place was not open during this period.
The facts were not far from what Claude had guessed. The boss of the Black Snake Society, Bedrill Blanche, did not expect that after joining the garrison brigade, he would have to undergo two months of training at the county security camp, and everyone would be imprisoned. You are not allowed to go out in the military camp. It was not until the completion of the training that the town office assigned the garrison tasks and garrison areas of each squadron. Even he, a big benefactor, was no exception. Who asked him to serve as the squadron leader of the fourth squadron? This was a bit like asking for trouble.
As the boss of the Black Snake Society, Beadleir Blanche originally wanted to use the garrison brigade to allow the Black Snake Society to legally own muskets, and then reached a private agreement with the mayor, Baron Robert, to combine the slums and the public dock area. He was assigned the jurisdiction of the fourth garrison squadron. Then he can comfortably be the underground king of these two areas, and by the way, he can also improve his social status. This is the main reason why he is willing to donate large sums of money to form a garrison.
Bedelir Blunt is not an idiot, otherwise he would not have become the boss of the Black Snake Society. He himself also knows very well what impression he has in the eyes of the so-called upper class people in White Deer Town. He has money and ambition, and he dreams of joining those upper-class people. This is the first step to clear his name and the only way to protect himself. In the kingdom, as the leader of an underground gang, he looked majestic, but in fact, in the face of the kingdom's powerful strength, he was just an ant in the eyes of powerful people.
It was precisely because of the long-term consideration that Beedrill Blanche embraced the thigh of the mayor, Baron Robert, regardless of the cost, even if he offered a large amount of money for it. Although Mayor Robert is just a puppet in the eyes of many people, the title of baronet is about to end with him and cannot be passed down to the next generation. But for Beedle Blunt, Mayor Robert was his stepping stone into the upper class of White Hart Town. Fortunately, he made the right bet.
If the three giants in the town office had not conspired to open up any new routes, then perhaps Mayor Robert would have continued to be a puppet for a while, and his words would have little weight in the town office. Unfortunately, the treasurer, administrative director and patrol supervisor of the town office were all arrested by the security battalion from the county on charges of endangering the security of the kingdom. Although they were later released home without charges, they were expelled from the town office. Even now, Mayor Robert stands out in the town hall, holding great power, high-spirited, and arrogant.
With the help of Mayor Robert's plan, Beedrill Blanche donated a large amount of funds to establish the White Deer Town Guard Brigade, but he also became the squadron leader of the Fourth Guard Squadron. This title sounds much better than the boss of the fish processing plant or the boss of the Black Snake Association. As a result, he has become a member of the upper class in Bailu Town. This status is legitimate and unquestionable.
Beadle Blunt is not greedy and very sensible. As the boss of the Black Snake Society, having too much money will make him feel precarious, fearing that he will become the target of powerful people at some point. Being able to exchange money for the position of a garrison squadron leader is a very cost-effective deal for him, because he can borrow this identity
