Battle of the Twin Cities: The Ninth Councilor

Chapter 3 Vander Warwick
It wears a short gun that the law enforcement officers of Piltover must equip when they go out. It can be used to fight criminals when necessary.

In the eyes of the nobles of Picheng, the lives of people in Dicheng are worthless!
Slightly stagnant, Sevica said with a bit of unwillingness and humiliation: "Who knows? Maybe I went out to visit old friends."

"Old friend?"

Grayson nodded, turned and left Fulgan's Tavern. She already knew where Van der had gone. There were not many places where the leader of the bottom city could go, and there were not many people who could be called his old friends.

Marcus had known where Van der was going for a long time, and followed Grayson without saying a word. He left and took a look in the direction of the second floor of Forgan's Tavern. Two young and thin figures seemed to come out of the shadows.

Benso Grocery Store, another place frequented by Dicheng people, is generally used for "sales of stolen goods".

Of course, as one of the top leaders of the Bottom City forces, Bensuo has more resources than this.

It's just that these "old guys" think that this is the age of young people, so most of them are in a semi-reclusive state.

If it were a few years ago, this bearded and strong man would not be a character to be trifled with.

Following behind Grayson, Marcus saw another side of the bottom city people compared to the upper level.

Rougher, more savage, and more hostile to them who came up to the city.

It seems that they will rush up to fight them at any time.

Passing through several dark alleys, the two came to a grocery store with a signboard with the name of the store and a pattern of a treasure box representing wealth.

In this store, this pattern also represents the meaning of everything here.

Although in the eyes of Shangcheng people, the value of the items in this shop is almost equivalent to "garbage", but it is also a rare treasure.

Especially Ben Suo and his little apprentice, who are one of the few high-level talents in Dicheng who have the ability to use technology side by side, often use these garbage to come up with some unexpected little things.

At the entrance of the shop, a thin, white-haired, black-skinned boy who looked like eight or nine years old leaned against the wall next to him, pretending to raise a hand at the two of them, and greeted them old-fashionedly.

"Hello!"

Grayson ignored him, pushed open the door of the grocery store, walked in, and greeted two burly men inside.

Compared with these two strong men who grew up in Bottom City, Grayson's physique is not inferior, which is one of the confidences that she can freely come and go in Bottom City.

Marcus looked at the boy a few more times.

Others don't know, but he knows clearly in his heart that this seemingly unreliable little guy in front of him will be a genius playing with time in the future.

"Time", this concept is more complicated, and it is more difficult for people to understand.

But in the eyes of those who understand the meaning behind it, this is a taboo area, not easy for ordinary people to set foot in.

Who would have thought that a kid who grew up in the 'stinky ditch' could set foot in that field?
But now...

He's just a kid, and he's a long way from being a Wizard.

Marcus walked into the grocery store without showing any signs of expression, took off the air-purifying mask on his face, and the mechanism inside was activated. The exhaust gas and substances harmful to the human body accumulated during this period were all discharged, and quickly dissipated in the in the air.

Fortunately, the people of Zaun don't like the stale air, so some capable people will install air purification devices on the buildings, which leads to the air quality in some buildings is much better than outside.

There is no doubt that Benso has such ability.

Marcus looked around. There were props of unknown meaning hanging everywhere in this grocery store, which looked disorganized.

There are also several huge machines piled up in the corner, some of which have "opened their hearts" to others and are obviously unfinished.

Marcus noticed that there were several masks of different styles hanging in a box on the wall next to the counter, and the one on the far left gave him a very familiar déjà vu.

"Hey, didn't you come alone?"

When Bensuo saw Marcos, his face became colder: "It seems that you didn't come here to catch up with us this time."

This sentence was said to Grayson, directly ignoring the existence of Marcus.

Marcus was not annoyed either, this was all the mess left by the former owner, and he was just a fish in the pond who was affected by the disaster.

With his right arm and elbow propped on the counter, he said straight to the point: "A building in the college district was attacked by a few... gutters. You should be very clear about this."

There was a slight pause when Marcus said the title of 'gutter guy', which he had to say in order to maintain his character, even though he knew in his heart that Zaun's people were not what Piltover thought they were.

"We're here to investigate the criminal."

Grayson took off the law enforcement officer's hat when she said this, which means that she will not talk to the two from the standpoint of the law enforcement officer, but will try to solve the case from a private perspective.

However, Van der was an elm-headed man, he didn't want to push someone out to take the blame, so he pretended not to understand the sentence, took a sip of his wine and asked, "What does the prisoner look like?"

The tone was indifferent, and he showed a casual attitude when talking about this matter, as if this matter had nothing to do with him.

This posture should be changed to the previous Marcus, he couldn't hear it.

But now Marcos just wants to make big things into small things, and small things into nothing.

If this case continues to be entangled, it will eventually lead to a situation that no one wants to see. At that time, it will be too late to recover!
Simply, he clicked next to him: "Just like the guy you're thinking about in your stupid head!"

This sentence is actually very obvious. It doesn't matter who you think of. The important thing is that you have to give someone, let us go back to the business, and then this matter will be overturned.

However, if Van der can do what he is doing now, it would have been impossible for him to do something casually to find someone to take the blame, otherwise he would not be Van der.

He pretended to be confused and asked Ben Suo: "Do you think I'm stupid?"

Being able to ask this sentence actually proves that he understands the implication of Grayson and Marcus, but he is still adhering to his own principles and unwilling to compromise.

"Ha, it's a bit tougher than ordinary people." Holding his glass, Benso smiled and affirmed Fandel's statement, and at the same time agreed with the other party's approach.

The two old men completely ignored the kindness of Grayson and himself, and their pretentious attitude made Marcus angry.

It's just asking them to send some people back to work. Those people will be imprisoned in Jingshui Prison for decades at most, and they won't kill them. Why can't these two brains turn around?
Is it really necessary to make trouble to the point where it can't end before you are reconciled?

Marcus approached Van der and threatened viciously in his ear: "Listen up, you old bastard..."

"I think you'd better go out for a walk and get some air, Marcus."

Grayson interrupted him.

There are some things that cannot be said clearly, and they will become a handle in the hands of others.

"Go out and calm down."
