The famous detective in the comic world

Chapter 233 Barov's Revenge
tsk...

Old dog Osborne, you really have all eyes and hands.

He Nan thought about it and asked the last question.

"Which gangs have feuds with Norman Osborn or the Osborn Group?"

"This - I don't know too well! Some gangs do have a relationship with them, but it seems that there is no open hostility!"

"That's it...thank you for your cooperation."

"Wait! Don't, don't kill me—"

"I didn't say to kill you, did I?"

He Nan swung his pistol and smashed his head, knocking him unconscious to the ground.

Then, he was also stuffed into the box.

It's quite roomy inside... He Nan closed the lid and found that there was still some room inside, so he complained secretly in his heart.

Ok... what to do next?
He Nan squatted in front of the window, carefully glanced at the situation outside.

I don't know how long they can hold meetings.

Anyway, let's get closer.

Meetings should be impossible to eavesdrop on.

That direction just now... If there is a ventilation pipe, I should have noticed it when I crawled over.

So it must rely on independent ventilation fans and so on to maintain air circulation.

As for hearing what was said inside outside the door, it was not realistic.

That kind of room must be specially sound-proofed, otherwise the content of important meetings will be leaked.

He Nan looked at the surroundings of the reception room, and chose a nearby room.

Just hide there, and wait for the Hoods to come out before taking action.

This meeting shouldn't last too long, after all, they're going to meet the Laughing Shark later.Talking to him was all that mattered, Johnny was the de facto second in command.

After the patrolling people passed the room, He Nan moved quietly.

Fortunately, the room he picked was empty.

...but it won't always be like this.

Five seconds after he entered, he heard two guards coming out of a nearby toilet, talking and laughing towards the house.

In order to avoid being exposed, He Nan immediately hid behind the TV cabinet to see if they were going to leave.

However, the truth of the conversation between these two people surprised He Nan.

They were talking about whether the two men that Officer Barov wanted them to kill would come today.

According to the conversation between the two, He Nan learned that Barov gave them the photos of He Nan and Shirley, hoping that Gaslamp Market would kill them when they came.

But Gaslamp Bazaar didn't seem to want to do this. On the surface, they agreed, but in fact they asked their men to capture them alive. Jonny would chat with them before making a decision.

Even if the top police officers asked them to help kill these two people, in view of the principle of not hurting any customers, Gaslamp Market would have to consider it, let alone a mere Barov.

He Nan frowned when he heard this.

... As expected.

I knew there was an ambush for us to investigate this case.

It seems that the higher-ups of the police station didn't want to touch us directly, otherwise they would come forward.

They just acquiesced in Barov's revenge.

But the black market didn't think much of him.

It can only be said that fortunately it was masked.Shirley's brown hair was covered by a silver wig, which was nothing like the imagination in the photo.

It is not convenient to check every masked customer in this kind of place.

Many people don't want to reveal their identities. You must reveal his privacy. He may leave the venue angrily and stop patronizing.

Then the business can't be done.

He Nan could probably guess what would happen if Gaslamp Bazaar really caught them.

They will be asked to cooperate, to do something for the black market, such as investigating intelligence, or to pay for ransom.Otherwise, they will be handed over to Barov.

…unless they get caught in areas where no guests are allowed.

That might be different.

Therefore, even if Barov's request fell through, the fact that He Nan and the others came here to investigate was very dangerous.

To find out something, you have to sneak to the third basement floor, there are too many opportunities for exposure.

OK, Barov... damn me, huh?
...don't let me catch you!
The more He Nan thought about it, the angrier he became.

This account will have to be settled sooner or later, but it must be settled at the expense of his ruin.

...Although this guy has no reputation for a long time, his actions are either covered up or wiped out by public opinion. He has to find a way to completely stink his public image and be fired by the police.

Then, consider whether to kill him or not.

At this time, Shirley's side.

Finally came here successfully...

Shirley finally jumped to the opposite side of the broken terrain.

The moment it hit the ground, the bricks under its feet loosened and slid into the deep cracks.Fortunately, Shirley immediately adjusted her balance and stood firm and took a step forward without falling.

For a moment, her heart trembled, but she quickly calmed down.

But even so, there are still some fears.

...In short, the road ahead should be quite solid.

Shirley hurried away, away from the dangerous area just now.

After that, she slowed down and slowly approached the iron gate at the bottom.

Well, sure enough, this place is also locked...

Taking out the key, Shirley listened to the sound outside before inserting it into the keyhole.

... How do you feel the sound of the tide?

Isn't this an underground building?

With doubts, Shirley listened carefully for a while, but couldn't hear anything except this voice.

...Forget it, let's talk after opening the door.

Just as she was thinking about it, she gently pushed the door open a crack and peeked out for a moment, and the question was answered.

Outside is an underground lake.

The tide is also produced in the distance by devices driven by waterwheels and steam engines.

It's really emotional...

Xue Li secretly thought so, and looked at the waterwheel.

The waterfall hangs down from above - I don't know if it is also man-made, but in Shirley's opinion, it should be natural.

After all, this cave has many cone-shaped rocks hanging from the top of the cave, and strange rocks of various shapes are piled up everywhere, and there seems to be no trace of artificial carving.

Maybe the Gaslamp Fair was built from this cave and moved upwards...or did people dig down and dig out this bottommost cave?
In this way, the lake may also exist naturally...

After Shirley turned off the flashlight and walked out of the stairwell, she immediately closed the door, found a nearby big rock and crouched behind it, and hid herself.

It's very dark here, only a few torches, not even gas lamps.

It is enough to see that not many people usually pass here.

After all, this exit has been scrapped...

Thinking of this, Shirley took out her binoculars to observe the nearby terrain.

She saw a guard standing above the waterfall on the side of the waterwheel, urinating into the lake in an uncivilized manner.

Such a disgusting scene made Shirley frowned and looked away.

...There's a watchtower over there.

She looked at the high ground across the lake and saw a guard standing on the watchtower too.

But what really catches the eye is the white-haired girl sitting by the tower and fishing on the ferry.
