Just after midnight, the truck drove out of Grande, heading west with the moonlight on its back, and then north, heading to the place agreed with Nuo.
In the woods sandwiched between the West District and the North District, in addition to passing through the Pais Ying River, there are many factories of local companies, as well as private warehouses mentioned in Nuo's message. However, the location of the warehouse is more towards the West District, west of the Paisying River. Therefore, if Zach wanted to go there, he could only take the road to the former Grand Cemetery in the West District, cross the river from Paisying, cross into the West District, and then go back south.
The place Zach and No agreed upon was the Grand Cemetery in the former West End. There is no other meaning, except that on a night like this, there really is no iconic place where two gray professionals can meet. What? Are you talking about the Hermann factory south of Paising? Don't be kidding. That place is still under investigation for the accident. The two of them are asking for trouble by going there.
He must have heard the sound of a truck. In the darkness, the lights of the two cars flashed, indicating his location to Zach.
No matter how troubled he is, Zach is much clearer at night than during the day, in all aspects.
"We'd better walk over there." As Zach drove closer, Nou opened the door and got out of the car, whispering in the cool night. The summer night is not that cold, but the key is that this is a cemetery.
Zach nodded, jumped out of the car, followed Nuo, and walked to his destination. Anyway, there was still some time before Zach asked the question he had when he heard the message, "How did you know that the warehouse belonged to Pochi Quinn?"
Nuo moved. The guy in the darkness was still wearing all black. He took out a photo from his body without making a sound. When Zach took it, he found that he was also wearing leather gloves.
Zach raised his eyebrows, not paying attention to the photo. Instead, he looked at Nuo. After a moment, he twitched his lips and said, "How many weapons do you bring?"
"A gun belt silencer, a dagger. A roll of steel wire, a crossbow, and some small tools." Nuo answered directly and raised his eyebrows, "The crossbow was given by the hunter who damaged my house before. "
Zach twisted his mouth and looked at himself. Just find a formal suit and come out. I'll ask you questions later. He looked at the photo that Nuo had given him. In a neat row of warehouse buildings that looked like shipping containers, a certain house number was circled with a marker, "Is this the warehouse where those soul-inducing grasses were sent?"
"Yes." Nuo, who was wearing a hood in the dark, nodded, not at all obvious. "About four or five years ago, Poch misappropriated funds from the Quinn Group to buy a statue outside Barton. Quinn asked us Well, people in the circle." He glanced at Zach, "covering up this matter, and finally the statue was placed in this warehouse, so we know that it belongs to Pochi."
Zach raised his eyebrows. Look, what he said to old Hank in the evening was right. The more people in gray professional circles stick together, the better. How convenient.
Zach returned the photo, frowned slightly, and looked at Nuo's outfit again, "Do you have any plans?"
"No." Nuo shook his head, pursed his lips and looked at Zach, wearing a vest, shirt, and straight trousers. and leather shoes that can clearly hear the sound of grinding the ground, which is in line with Zach's consistent image of a gentleman, "But, uh, I still hope to be able to go in and out without being discovered. The warehouse manager here doesn't look at us. These people have face.”
This means that this is not a person in the gray professional circle. Zach curled his lips, and the fact he just realized in the evening was now used, "Who is the manager here from the West End?"
Nuo was a little surprised by Zach's leap of thought, but he did not completely refute it, "I can't say who it is from the West End, but..." Nuo hesitated a little, as if it was difficult to describe, "I should say, it is, well, Falcon's. People who are relatives, like this.”
Zach raised his eyebrows, chuckled and shook his head. Nuo said it too tactfully. Although Falcon has changed his surname and completely become a member of the Falcon family, recalling the feeling when he spoke at Jackson's funeral, This son-in-law who married into the family was obviously different from ordinary people who married into the family. He completely abandoned the original family power, and marriage was more suitable.
So if this is expressed as the power of Falcon's original family, it still means that this is Falcon's power.
"Then..." Zach thought of something, "Poch has stored some things in his warehouse. This matter should have been known to the people in the West District."
Nuo frowned and actually shook his head, "I don't think the West End people know it, at least Smith doesn't know it yet. I didn't inform him, and he didn't inform me of the news. You know Falcon and Smith are partners, right? If Smith didn't know about it, I doubt even Falcon knew about it."
Zach frowned, distracted, "Didn't you tell Smith what you found?"
Nuo shook his head again, "No, I'm learning from you Grande. There is no process, only results." He smiled at Zach.
Our vampire smiled awkwardly, nodded, quickly returned to the topic, and organized his words, "You are suspecting that the warehouse manager did not notify Falcon at all that Pochi updated his warehouse inventory."
As I said before, this is a warehouse that only recognizes faces. The implication is that Pochi can actually move around freely. In this situation? Is Mrs. Queen crazy? ! In the afternoon speech, Mrs. Quinn was still in very good condition. Zach didn't think Mrs. Quinn was crazy, so it was just Porky who broke through. Mrs. Barton did not hesitate to suspect Grande of defending the security measures of Quinn Manor and sneaked out. of!
Nodding, Nuo was silent for a while, "Zach, you have been in this circle for too short a time, and you said that Old Hank didn't say anything to you at all, so you may not be clear about some things."
Zach pursed his lips, no need to remind Nuo about these things.
"People in the West End have been very strange in recent years. They seem to be separated..." Nuo frowned and thought about the words, "Not very glorious. We have seen with our own eyes that the Quinn family has completely turned into philanthropists. Barton, Stone The family has withdrawn from the center of political power and started to go behind the scenes. Bishop has transferred a large number of private properties. There are even recent rumors that Smith is also changing the direction of his industry... "
Zach pursed his lips tightly. He also knew this, and the West End people were trying to clear their names.
"So, there's no reason not to think that Falcon wasn't doing that. If Falcon was also stripping away some of his original stuff, it would be understandable that some of the information wouldn't get back to him."
Zach didn't say anything more. He was silent for a while, and after showing his thinking, he asked, "Who is the manager of this warehouse? Do you know his name?"
"Aix." Nuo replied, "He used to be a subordinate of Falcon's biological father. He 'managed' Bei Qi when Bei Qi was still the transportation hub of Barton and the center of the city." Nuo ignored it. He curled his lips and said, "The one who collects protection money."
Oh, it's the southeast, the prototype of those gang members.
"Considering that the original Becky was not only a station but also a warehouse, now Aix's work has not changed much." Nuo said with a moment of humor.
Zach smiled in response, "Akers. Haha, Akers." (...)
