Plando…
Dulin closed his eyes and recalled the process of getting to know and get along with Plando. He remembered that more than one person had told him that Plando was a smiling fox and he was always smiling. Smile when you are happy and smile when you are unhappy. Even when you are "eating people", you still smile. There are quite a few tycoons in Tenel City who have been defeated by him, but people are always confused by his talkative side and the smile on his face. He is not really a person with no temper. He is not someone who can swallow your anger if you offend him. He will also get angry and take revenge, but you can only see his smile in the process, so you ignore it.
At this time, Dulin remembered what happened on the way to the prison, the three trucks filled with private wine that were robbed on their way to Guli, and the attack on Ellis on the farm. All the survivors in these processes had the same view - the opponent had many weapons, some people cooperated well in the battle, and these people's goals were pure.
Combining these factors, Dulin believed that besides Prondo, there should be someone standing behind him. It might be his "boss", or it might be his partner. This person is very powerful, has a lot of manpower, and plenty of weapons. The most important thing is that he is concealed enough in this city. He is so hidden that no one except Plando and a few people knows who the boss of Plando is until now.
Dulin had a guess, whether this person could be... the captain of the Tenel Gendarmerie.
There are gendarmerie units in every city. Since the New Party came to power, gendarmerie units have been deployed in almost every city. In addition to suppressing riots, their mission is to strengthen central control over local areas. The power of the gendarmerie is great, but also very small.
It is said to be very large because the Gendarmerie has a certain degree of armed power and arbitrary power. Once there is a local riot, unrest, or even some extreme Zionist organizations want to take advantage of the weakening process of the empire's transformation to do something, the Gendarmerie will You can directly use force to suppress them without asking higher authorities for instructions. This means that whether or not to dispatch the gendarmerie is a very idealistic judgment. If the captain of the gendarmerie thinks it is necessary to dispatch, then even if his purpose is not pure and he fails, he will not be punished too seriously.
It is said that it has very little power because, apart from the use of force, the gendarmerie's intervention in local areas is extremely limited. It is not an administrative authority and does not have law enforcement capabilities. As long as there is no external riot that may affect the sovereignty of a region, the Gendarmerie does not have any power to do anything proactively. No matter what happened in the city, they could only watch with wide eyes.
From this, Dulin thought of another guy, Mayor Peter of Turnel City. He also came out of the gendarmerie when he got up early. So is there a possibility that among Plando, the gendarmerie, and the mayor? There is some necessary relationship between them
It's possible!
It's just that it's not yet known whether Prondo took the initiative to attack Dulin, or whether someone instructed him to do so. If he takes the initiative to get rid of Du Lin, then Du Lin will not be lenient and will definitely treat Prondo as his number one enemy. But if someone instructed him to do this, was this person the mayor or the captain of the gendarmerie
"How is the situation in the gendarmerie recently?" Dulin opened his eyes and asked. At this time, the car had entered the suburbs, and dumped houses could be seen everywhere on the roadside. After the Great Patriotic War, the population of Ternell decreased sharply. People no longer believe that if the next war breaks out, the empire will be so lucky this time, so the "poor people" living nearby who have nothing left moved here early and went to places closer to the core of the empire.
Dulin's question put Eliers in a bit of a dilemma. Who had nothing to do to follow the gendarmerie, and there was no direct or indirect interest between the gendarmerie and Dulin. He shook his head, not knowing how to answer this somewhat difficult question, but Dulin slapped himself on the forehead and pointed at Ellis, "Sorry, arrange one or two reliable people and see if there is anything we can do." Being able to get into the Military Police, that’s important.”
"There won't be any problems. Don't worry. I will select qualified and outstanding people as soon as possible and send them to join the Military Police. You may not know that the Military Police issued a notice a few days ago saying that they are recruiting some new soldiers. , this time they want to recruit a total of twenty recruits... "
Dulin caught a word very sharply - conscription. He immediately interrupted Ellis's ramblings, "I remember that conscription only happens every four years. Why is it earlier this time? If I remember correctly If so, the recruitment time for the Military Police coincides with the midterm election.”
Ellis shrugged, wondering why the military police had changed their plans.
After speaking, Du Lin closed his eyes again. When he opened them again, the car had stopped outside the Eastern Star Trading Company at the corner of Queen Street. Through the glass, he could see that the newly renovated store had been smashed to pieces, and there was almost no intact thing left. I don't know whether it was the people around or the garbage trucks. The lobby on the first floor has become a garbage dump, filled with all kinds of domestic garbage, and some people are defecating in it.
Some red paint was splashed on the outer wall outside the door. In short, this place was completely finished. If you want to repair it, it will cost at least one thousand yuan. This is definitely a huge sum of money for Dulin, who now has little money. Fortunately, he doesn't need to worry about money, and soon his "business" and "factory" will be up and running again.
"Go to the Contraband Bureau, I want to see Xiu En."
When Dulin's car approached the Contraband Investigation Bureau, he happened to see Xiu En driving out of the car. He saw Xiu En, and Xiu En also saw him. Xiuen made a gesture to follow, and then quickly sped towards the south of the city. With Dulin's agreement, Ellis immediately changed direction and followed Xiuen's car.
About twenty minutes later, two cars parked outside a barbecue restaurant called "Delicious Beef Ribs." The most restaurants in the poor and backward city of Tenel are this kind of barbecue restaurants. They are either barbecue steaks or barbecue beef. They are as common as the local snacks in the world in Dulin's dream.
Xiu En got out of the car, walked outside the car at the back and knocked on the window, "Stay here. If someone comes out later, don't let him escape!"
Xiu En got the news through other informants that the guy who deceived him last time is now hiding here. This is a rare opportunity. Even if he can't get any direct evidence that he can govern Karur, he can still know who is behind it.
Less than thirty seconds after he entered the barbecue restaurant, a thin man wearing a brown-red peaked cap rushed out of the door and ran wildly on the sidewalk without stopping. Du Lin pointed at the guy and said something to stop him. Ellis stepped on the pedal of the kinetic energy compartment, and the car jumped forward and hit the guy directly. He was thrown up by the huge force, bounced hard against the wall and fell down. He held his hands and retreated, letting out a series of violent screams.
"I have broken my leg!"
At this time, Xiu En also wiped the water stains on his face and walked over slowly, "Come on, stand up and keep running!" He lifted the little man who had an obvious open fracture in his left leg to stand up and used the Pushed him hard. The little man subconsciously wanted to stand firm, but the broken tibia made him fall to the ground with a scream. Xiu En walked over again, pulled him up from the ground again, and pushed him again, "Run, aren't you very good at running? Come on, keep running and show me!"
