Chapter 853: The Curtain Falls (Part 1)

Savage felt that something was very wrong recently.

Objectively speaking, there were indeed many things wrong recently, such as spending money like water, losing battle after battle in gang wars, and the mysterious disappearance of antique dealers, but Savage was already used to these things.

What made him feel a bit strange was that it seemed someone was targeting him, and these people were very professional.

Savage, who had been a king for many terms, knew how important intelligence work was. He also knew that every country must have departments engaged in intelligence work, but he didn't understand why he was being targeted by them.

Could it be that his great plan had already been exposed?

Thinking of this, Savage couldn't help but heighten his vigilance. He began to reduce the number of times he went out, almost never leaving the range of the Living Hell he ruled. But this only made the other party more alert.

In a hotel in Blüdhaven, Kaila frowned with a serious face, holding the phone and saying: "Are you sure? He hasn't been going out much in the last week? It seems your activities have caught his attention..."

"You mean, in one week, he contacted three Mexicans? A restaurant cook, a bar bartender, and a newsboy?"

"We must get more solid evidence to confirm that he was indeed sent by that side to support the South American movement. If we don't get evidence, we can't strike a fatal blow. Okay, I understand..."

Kaila hung up the phone, but her face was even more solemn, because she knew herself that the Soviet Union hadn't sent anyone to support the South American movement.

Now the Soviet Union was overwhelmed internally, busy adapting to the aftermath of the power transition. Most people could only give verbal support, and many people were still taking a wait-and-see attitude.

So at this time, a so-called Soviet agent suddenly appearing in Cat Getan was very suspicious.

Kaila knew that a thief had previously reported that the Goth family might be colluding with foreign enemies, and the CIA attached great importance to this, after all, it was a special period now.

The CIA almost went in with a death wish, sending several agents into Cat Getan, but they didn't expect the investigation work to go smoothly. They found a pile of things, which were the collections Savage bestowed upon Mrs. Goth.

Through this pile of collections, the CIA determined that this mysterious great king definitely had a problem.

Among the collections, besides those unimportant artworks, the most important were divided into two parts: one part was NAZI medals, and one part was Soviet medals.

The CIA directly concluded that the NAZI medals were fake. This wasn't because they were unfair, but mainly because the level of the NAZI medal Savage got was really too high.

According to historical facts, only one or two people received this medal, all of whom were famous NAZI generals with very clear life paths, and the medals were sent to museums after their deaths.

But conversely, those Soviet Patriotic War medals were common goods, and many were issued in just ten years. There was no record of who exactly received them, so it was very likely they were real.

So the CIA concluded that the NAZI medals were just to cover up, after all, that group of people would do anything to be able to infiltrate.

Having determined this, they began to track. Although Mrs. Goth and Leon were both dead, they were not professional agents, and their previous activity tracks had not been covered up.

At the same time, Leon had contacted many people in the name of the great king, and as they investigated, they discovered the activity traces of Vandal Savage.

This great king's way of acting could be said to be neither here nor there. It was neither grand and righteous, nor hidden and sneaky. It felt like he was intermittently ambitious and continuously waiting to die.

There were a few days in a month when he was active everywhere, recruiting subordinates one moment and promoting the great king's plan to rule the world the next. The rest of the time he basically disappeared, not knowing where he was staying.

But this way of acting made the CIA feel even more certain that the so-called great king's plan to rule the world was just a cover, and their real target. I'm afraid it was South America.

The CIA immediately attached importance to it. The situation in South America was already burning, and they couldn't let more people intervene.

Therefore, the agents immediately followed Savage's footsteps and witnessed all the work he did after coming to the Living Hell.

Although Savage didn't go to Mexico immediately, his track in the Living Hell made the CIA agents even more convinced that his target must be South America.

"Bang, bang, bang," the sound of knocking on the door rang out. The newsboy with baby fat on his face walked into Cobblepot's office. Cobblepot looked up at him and said: "Has little Anthony gone over yet?"

"Yes, boss. He has been responsible for delivering newspapers recently. Also, that Gonzalez we transferred over earlier has officially started work in the restaurant, and the bartender who was originally Mexican should also have made contact with that Savage..."

"Arrange two more people. I remember there are two from Spain in the East District, let them also transfer to work in the South District..."

"But..." The newsboy rubbed his head and said: "Boss, even if I haven't read books, I know that Spain and Mexico should be quite far apart, right?"

"But they both speak Spanish." Cobblepot put down his pen and said: "You let the children in the class keep an eye on it. When you meet people who speak Spanish, give them a newspaper and tell them there is a good job for them to do here. If they agree, transfer them to the surroundings of that Savage..."

The newsboy asked a bit confused: "Why transfer people who speak Spanish to the surroundings of that Savage?" What's special about them?

"Nothing special, just a plan. By the way, how is the contact with the children's gang? Do they have any thoughts on our plan?"

Mentioning this, the newsboy's face immediately improved. He said: "Boss, you are really as wise as a god. I have already contacted the vast majority of the child kings in the East District, and they are all willing to unite..."

"They not only want to pay rent and protection money together, but also want to engage in community union, which is for all the children in a certain phase of the building to unite. Some people go out to take orders, some are responsible for coming back to pass messages, and others are responsible for finding people to go out to work..."

Cobblepot frowned and said: "Who proposed this method? He shouldn't be an ordinary child king, right?"

"That's right, I heard his name is... Jason Todd! When I went over, he had almost unified all the children in the first phase of the building. Those children all said he is the most flexible child king here and can lead them to earn money."

Cobblepot thought for a while and said: "How about this, let's go to the building of the first phase together to take a look and see how they operate."

The two got into a car and arrived near the first phase of the project. Unexpectedly, they met two children before they even entered the door. Cobblepot stopped them and asked: "Where are you going?"

Those two children looked him over and found that he wasn't very old, and he wasn't holding any weapons, so they relaxed a little.

Then they looked at the newsboy following him. One of them obviously recognized him, immediately walked up and patted the newsboy on the shoulder and said: "Little Neo, why are you here? Aren't you from the Living Hell side? My mom even mentioned you last time..."

"My boss and I came over to take a look. I heard you have a particularly powerful child king here, and we want to come over to meet him."

"Wait a minute, your boss?" That kid frowned and said: "Didn't you say you were working for the boss of the Bingshan Lounge? My god, don't tell me this is the boss of the Bingshan Lounge!"

"Hello, I am Oswald." Cobblepot shook hands with the kid and said: "Can you take us in? We want to see Jason."

"Um, I guess we can..." The kid said a bit embarrassedly: "But the process might be a bit troublesome. There are several procedures to go through. If you are not afraid of trouble, then follow me."

After speaking. Those two kids led Cobblepot to the guard post. There happened to be a gatekeeper at the guard post. The kid knocked on the window, and the gatekeeper woke up, looked them over, and said: "Oh, it's you brats, what's the matter?"

"We want to bring people in. These two have something to do with Boss Jason."

"Alright, follow me." The gatekeeper looked Cobblepot over, found that he was thin and small, and wasn't holding any weapons, so he didn't say much, led them from the guard booth to a room on the other side.

"Stick your arm in." The gatekeeper commanded. Cobblepot frowned, but he had long heard of this authentication process, so he stuck his arm in.

He didn't feel anything, and the authentication was completed. Cobblepot pulled his arm back, then walked to the sales office where he had paid the rent before, did the authentication again, filled out the form, and the reception desk called Jason to confirm the visitor. After fiddling for more than ten minutes, the two successfully entered the interior of the building.

Jason heard that someone was looking for him, so he immediately greeted them. He found it was Cobblepot, so he walked up with a smile, the two hugged, and said: "Why didn't you call me before you came? I was wondering who it was."

"I heard you've been very busy lately. I just came over to take a look, no need to disturb your work."

Just as Cobblepot finished speaking, he saw two kids holding a stack of materials, walking past in a hurry. He frowned and asked: "Where are they going? And what are they holding in their hands? Don't tell me these things were written by them..."

Jason shook his head and said: "Of course not. We are relatively lucky. There is a university teacher in the first phase of the building. We paid to hire him to help us write some materials related to orders..."

He led Cobblepot to an office on the third floor. Cobblepot found that everyone coming and going here was a child, and the noisy chatter was endless.

"Hey, that redhead! You have class this afternoon, right? Give me the two orders in your hand, I'll find someone to handle it..."

"Done, done, my homework isn't finished! Hurry, hurry, hurry, someone replace me to finish this job, I have two more errands to run this afternoon, if I can't hand in my homework, I'm dead!"

"Where did those two little guys go? Why didn't they go to the daycare class on time? Their teacher called here, and it scared me to death..."

"What was the price list that the bearded guy in the second phase building wanted? Food or daily necessities? I finished recording it, where did I throw it?"

"Hey, watch your own folder, we don't have money to find that teacher to write it again. Come over, someone help me see what this word is?... Anchor? Why do they want to buy an anchor?"

Jason led Cobblepot to the rest area next to the office, which was quieter. He poured a glass of water, then smiled at Cobblepot and said:

"Welcome to the Cat Getan Everything Shop." ===== CHAPTER 854 =====
