Law Enforcer's Handbook

Chapter 649 Knight Kane
On the eve of the upcoming ceremony, Lu Xiang received an urgent call from the same period.

Kane contacted each of them, and set the gathering place at a high-end bar outside the castle, which is one of the most favorite places for members of the consortium, and it is also one of the most luxurious and corrupt places in the second district , in the words of the nobles, they would rather keep all corrupt morals outside the castle.

This is a bar open to members of the consortium. Only VIPs who have been authenticated can pass through strict security and explore the interior of the bar.

There are paparazzi around the bar.

One of their main sources of income is providing news to media companies or using self-media to gain attention. They can often meet big figures who can only be seen on the Internet and on TV near bars.

During a day off, Ivan found out a lot of identity information about Kane through the intelligence network of MI[-], because Lu Xiang specifically mentioned that this young man is eager to express himself in the same period and is eager to become the leader of this team.

According to the data, the Kane family can barely get involved with the consortium.

If we go back three or four generations and focus on before the third war, they can be regarded as distant relatives of the Capello family. Kane’s parents and other family members have always publicized this way. It is a kind of high society ball, hoping to let them join the consortium through the Capello family and become a member of it.

But the Capello family seems to be dismissive of their clinging.

There are indications that the Capello family does not even treat them as relatives, and their several applications to join the consortium through the "blood theory" have all been rejected.

After the family moved to the second district, they had never set foot inside the castle.

So, Kane's parents thought of a way to save the country with a curve.

Let Kane participate in the consortium's assessment for the entire Second District, and even the entire coalition government. If their son can make contributions to the Knights and be awarded the title of lord, then the Capello family will no longer have any reason to reject them. outside.

In this regard, Ivan's evaluation is that they are another group of people immersed in the dream of nobility.

Such people are all too common in the Second District.

The various families of the consortium can always meet some "poor relatives" who come out of nowhere. Some of them are real, but most of them are small groups composed of daydreamers, and the Kane family They can be regarded as the best among them, at least they gave birth to a son who is good enough, and he really passed the assessment of the consortium.

Lu Xiang was the second to arrive, and only Kane arrived before her.

At this time, Kane looked a little embarrassed. He paced back and forth in front of the bar, looking anxious.

Information on the bar was also included in the information provided by MI[-].

It is said that Kane's parents racked their brains and spent a lot of money to finally become a certified guest of the bar.

It's a pity that their experience in the bar was not satisfactory, and they didn't make a few real noble friends.

It is not difficult to see from the eyes of the security personnel that they know Kane, but they don't take him seriously.

"what's up?"

Lu Xiang glanced at the time.

At 23:17, they should have rested at this time, because they will enter the castle early tomorrow morning to participate in the ceremony.

"Good thing, this is a great thing!"

Kane's tone of voice has changed significantly from usual, "I really didn't expect you to be the first person to come here."

"I happen to live nearby."

"When everyone is here, I want to tell you a big thing."

Seeing Kane's nervous look, Lu Xiang didn't continue to ask.

Because she still had to play the role of a taciturn beautiful girl in front of people, she just nodded and retreated to a position close to the corner, so that she and Kane would not be too conspicuous on the street in front of the bar.

It was already a quarter of an hour later when the last one of the same period arrived.

Everyone wondered why Kane summoned them. Some of them were sound asleep and woken up by Kane's rapid phone ringing.

Once again Kane has been snubbing everyone.

He walked up the steps under the slightly contemptuous eyes of the security personnel. The security personnel wanted to embarrass him by shutting out everyone except Kane according to the bar's regulations, but when he reported a name, the security personnel wanted to embarrass him. Lu Xiang, who was observing secretly, found their cautious appearance extremely funny.

But that's the norm in District Two.

The concept of class is deeply imprinted in everyone's cognition, and this is also one of the cities with the most serious discrimination problems.

Although the civilians living in the second district can enjoy good law and order and rich material conditions, they have no status at all.

All that they receive is seen as a handout from the nobles, so they must be grateful to those who live in the castle.

After entering the gate of the bar, Kane led them upstairs, through the deep corridor, and finally came to a door.

He didn't enter the door immediately, but adjusted at the door for a while.

"Dong dong dong."

"Come in."

When the door of the compartment was pushed open, Lu Xiang finally understood why Kane was so reserved.

It was a familiar face that appeared in everyone's eyes. She believed that every legal citizen of the Second District would be familiar with this face.

Colin Capello.

The future successor of the Capello family.

In addition to Colin, there are also some unsightly pictures in the compartment, such as two female knights who are bound and placed on the ground in a posture that is almost humiliating. This is not a role-playing game, because Lu Xiang noticed The scarlet pattern on the armor of the two men was the mark of the Scarlet Knights.

As a noble knight, you should never do such a dirty thing.

But the two of them were like tamed pets. Before receiving Colin's order, they kept their status quo, allowing those who entered the door to appreciate their current state.

"... Kane."

Colin Capello and Kane looked at each other for a long time before finally recalling his name, "Toast to you, my friend."

A glass of champagne was handed to Kane.

"I have something to ask you, more precisely, I want to ask all of you here."

"Please say."

Kane was flattered and took the wine glass from Colin. Even his parents had never been directly received by the future ruler of the Capello family, let alone being called friends by the other party.

The contemporaries following Kane had different expressions.

Most of them stared at Colin with the same eyes as Kane, and some of them were secretly observing the female knight lying on the floor of the compartment. Of course, some of them looked away like Lu Xiang, and didn't want to watch this morally corrupt scene any more. one-eyed person.

"You know, the castle has been a bit uneasy recently, and all the knights are on the occasion of employing people. I hope that you can directly apply to join the Scarlet Knights at the ceremony tomorrow. I, Colin Capello, can ask you Promise, I will never treat you badly in the future."

Without any hesitation, Kane agreed with all his heart.

In his eyes, this is tantamount to a gift from the nobles to them. Obviously, many people in the same period thought so. They imitated Kane and immediately shouted the slogan of being willing to follow the Capello family.

Colin Capello's eyes stayed on the few people who remained silent for a moment, and then squeezed out a smile, "Since that's the case, I'm relieved, I still have some things to do here, see you tomorrow."

Lu Xiang had never seen such a tough way of asking for help.

He drew a big pie, and then immediately issued an order to evict the customer after the other party agreed, which almost showed his contempt for him—even when the company poured chicken soup for employees to draw big pies, it was even worse than this Heart more.

But for Colin's undisguised contempt, the group headed by Kane is happy.

Combined with the shameful posture of the two female knights in the compartment, Lu Xiang couldn't help wondering if there were a lot of shivering mixed in among these knights.

This term was told to her by Song Lan, which broadened her horizons and once again understood the meaning of the world being so big and full of wonders.

The whole meeting process takes no more than 5 minutes.

For Colin Capello, meeting them seems to be just an episode, and his real purpose in coming to this bar is not to talk to them.

As soon as he walked out of the bar, Kane asked other people including Lu Xiang in a complaining tone, "When you were in the room just now, why didn't you respond to Master Colin? This is the only one in life. One chance!"

"...But, I heard that the Scarlet Knights have a bad reputation."

Said one of the contemporaries who was in hesitation.

His words drew the approval of the rest.

This is a relatively euphemistic way of saying it. In fact, it is not an exaggeration to describe them as notorious. Compared with noble knights, the Scarlet Knights are more like a group of mercenaries or warmongers.

Alcoholism, use of illegal drugs, and a morally corrupt atmosphere, all of which have a lot to do with the current Lord of the Knights.

Legend has it that the Scarlet Lord himself was a heavy drinker.

Whenever he gets drunk, he often commits acts that seriously violate the spirit of chivalry. If he hadn't been backed by the Capella family, he would have been demoted or simply removed from the rank of knights because of his deplorable behavior. .

"Besides, I don't want to be like them."

Another female knight said that when she was in the compartment, like Lu Xiang, she turned her gaze elsewhere, not wanting to take a second look at the scene inside.

"What about you, Mo Lian, what do you say?"

Kane suddenly threw the question to Lu Xiang.

"I want to go back."

Lu Xiang refused to answer such an extremely boring question, and she even began to regret that she was invited to come here at night, "I have already thought about the knight order I want to join."

"In that case..."

Kane's face was a bit ugly. He noticed the eyes of Master Colin in the cubicle. Although he didn't say it clearly, it could be seen that the young master seemed very dissatisfied with those who rejected the proposal.

This is his dereliction of duty.

Because he never expected that someone would reject the invitation made by the future ruler of the Capello family.

"If we can't be assigned to the same knight order, we will no longer be companions."

Kane figured out the purpose of Master Colin's meeting with them.

This is not only to make the Capello family stand out at tomorrow's ceremony, but also to hoard power for future internal struggles within the consortium.

"Perhaps, one day we will face each other with swords."

"Then I hope we never meet on the battlefield."

Lu Xiang just glanced at Kane indifferently, left the team first, and walked towards his temporary residence.

　Thank you for the 1500 starting coins rewarded by Whispering Moyu!
　　Little Theater No. [-]:
　　On a certain day of a certain year, a certain month, Friday, evening.

　　Lu Xiang informed Hannah of this extremely important information. Hannah always believed in Song Lan's judgment, so she ordered a set of nano-tight combat suits from her biopharmaceutical company through her family on the same day, and the company's employees worked overtime. The combat uniform was sent to her residence before dark.

　　Throughout the night, Lu Xiang stayed by her cell phone, because she was eager to know whether the information Song Lan gave was reliable or not.

　　But things turned out to be beyond her expectations after all.

　　She imagined the countless answers Hannah might give, but she didn't receive even a single reply in the whole night!
　　She sent three inquiring text messages to Hannah in a row, but the latter seemed to disappear from the world.

　　"Old Lu, why are you sitting there alone in a daze at night?"

　　After watching a movie, Song Lan held half a popsicle in her mouth, and handed the other half to Lu Xiang.

　　"I'm making a list."

　　Lu Xiang absent-mindedly took a bite of the popsicle, which made her squint her eyes.

　　"Has the council assigned you a new task?"

　　"No, it has nothing to do with the council."

　　It was past ten o'clock at night, and something told her that Hannah might never write back to her tonight.

　　This made her realize the accuracy of Song Lan's information.

　　"What are you..."

　　Song Lan's question came to an abrupt end, because he glanced at the contents of Lu Xiang's mobile phone memo, which had nothing to do with work:

　　Nano Tight Combat Suit (White)

　　Maid outfit (white silk)

　　Standard knight light armor
