363. Chapter 359: Betrayal

Fides City.

In a bar with no name.

Galio sat at the bar counter.

This is his bar. Relying on the liquor sent by Lansi, he quickly obtained a large amount of funds, and the gang was constantly growing.

In this day and age, money can end everything!

Those who can't afford to eat, those who have no work and are homeless, they can give a stranger a knife to get enough to eat.

They can also sell their lives for the money you give them!

Fides is a city with a relatively single economic development, so there are not many opportunities here, unlike New Jincheng.

If you don't do well in this line, you can go to another line to find a new job. Even if you don't do well in all jobs, you can choose to lie down or crawl.

Rich business forms can find enough opportunities for people to survive, as long as they can recognize themselves and have no illusions about reality.

But in Fides, even if you recognize yourself and have no illusions about reality, and are even willing to lie on the bed and stick your butt out, there must be someone behind you!

Girls are fine, boys...

So not being able to eat here means really not being able to eat!

Galio now has money, he can attract many people to join his gang, his gang is also constantly growing, and his influence is also changing.

Even the municipal councilor drinks here.

Just like the one sitting next to him now.

"Good wine."

There are seven municipal councilors in Fides City, and Philip is one of them.

After Sidney left Fides City, the Social Party, as a political interest exchange and some ideas, pushed him to serve as the mayor of New Jincheng, and at the same time dismantled the original political interest group of Fides City.

Now these politicians are not the same batch as those when Sidney was there.

They are all new vested interest groups, and naturally they will not follow the rules of Sidney's era.

Philip shook the wine glass in his hand, admiring the psychedelic light passing through the glass and the amber liquid.

There are a few people in the bar. These people are either staff of the City Hall, civil servants, or local celebrities.

This bar is opened specifically for these big figures. As a heavy industrial city, alcohol is as indispensable as machine oil and coal!

Even for politicians who don't work on the assembly line!

Now the only one who can stably provide high-quality liquor in the city is Galio.

Galio smiled, smiled very honestly, and even looked a bit shy, but if you think he is really shy, you must be very wrong.

A gang leader cannot be an honest and shy person; this is his disguise.

Looking at his silly smile, Philip knew he was pretending to be stupid. "I heard that these wines are from New Jincheng?"

Avoiding his question obviously wasn't appropriate anymore.

Galio nodded. "I have a road in New Jincheng..."

Councilor Philip sniffed the wine glass in front of his nose and took another sip. "High-end taste!"

He paused as he spoke. "Very fragrant, not just the wine fragrance, but also the smell of money, and something else."

Galio quickly weighed it in his head for a while. "I can take out five percent."

Councilor Philip had no indication. He had to continue, "You see, if they know you took it, they will also take it. You seven councilors, one mayor, maybe the police chief also needs..."

"Each of you five percent, mayor ten percent, police chief three percent, I can still have..."

He quickly calculated. "Fifty-two percent."

"I have a lot of costs, and I also bear the risks, and I have so many people to support."

Councilor Philip thought for a while, then took out three twenty-five-cent coins and two one-dollar bills and placed them on the table.

This money couldn't even buy the glass of wine in his hand. He pushed the money toward Galio. "This is the money for my investment."

Sometimes these politicians are shameless and play rogue, even blacker than the blackest gang!

Obviously he could not spend money, but he still took out this money. This is actually a mockery, a kind of arrogance!

He wants to use this way to tell Galio, "I don't owe you anything."

As for whether he really doesn't owe him anything, everyone knows it in their hearts, but at least he can convince himself.

When facing some choices that need him to make in the future, this two dollars and seventy-five cents might play a key role.

Galio knew these, but he still smiled and put the money into his pocket. A smile appeared on Councilor Philip's face.

"You are a smart man, Galio."

Galio was just about to respond to something when the manager suddenly walked to his side and whispered a few words in his ear.

After apologizing to Councilor Philip, he entered the office.

The phone was connected quickly; it was Enio's.

"My dear Enio, why did you think of calling your old friend?" He laughed loudly and sat in the manager's chair. He laughed very loudly because only in this way could he let Enio feel his enthusiasm.

Enio exchanged pleasantries. "We encountered a little thing here. My good brother Mo Lisi was attacked by people from the Wolf Gang and is still in the hospital."

Galio's expression changed immediately. "This is really terrible!"

But soon his attention shifted to the name "Wolf Gang." "You mean Wolf and his group?"

"Yes."

Galio also had a deep impression of the Wolf Gang, because the Bear Gang, the Wolf Gang, and the Viper Gang were the most famous gangs in Fides City.

In this city, everyone from top to bottom is related to industry, so the whole city is in this atmosphere and environment, so many times gang naming is as simple as it can be.

They don't advocate the term "family," but rather worship animals with power in nature.

This is a characteristic of a region.

Coastal areas have more and richer cultural exchanges, so they have many other ideas in naming.

But the western region has a relatively closed environment, and the wild environment is dangerous. Bears, wolves, etc., often attack pedestrians.

These predatory animals have brought people an inherent strong impression, so in choosing names, these people will be more inclined to use powerful animals as the gang's name.

Before these gangs left Fides, Galio could only be considered a second-rate or third-rate gang.

If it weren't for the fact that there are many Imperial people, he might not even be considered second or third rate.

Only after they left, and he made money from the smuggled liquor from Lansi, and started to recruit troops and expand his influence, did he mix into a first-rate force.

So hearing this familiar name again, he was a bit emotional.

"The Professor is a very powerful man. He had a good relationship with the councilors and even the mayor of our city at the time."

He paused. "Is there anything I can help you with?"

The sound of a match striking came from the receiver. After a while, Enio said, "The Professor, Wolf, the Wolf Gang, these people... do they have families?"

After Galio finished listening, he was stunned. Although there is no saying in the Federation that "hatred should not be extended to the family," in fact, some people, especially those at the bottom, still recognize it.

But the high level is different. The higher the level, the more they pay attention to killing everyone, absolutely not leaving any future trouble.

In federal politics, there is no lack of sudden death of the whole family, or the whole family having accidents. It's just that it is rarely revealed to ordinary people.

Galio considered for a few seconds. "Wolf's situation is only known to the Professor; we don't know."

"After the Professor's son died, he divorced his wife. His wife took his daughter and formed a new family."

"By the way, the Professor's father is still alive, and he has an older sister and a younger brother, as well as their family..."

"In addition, the Wolf Gang has several senior cadres. They are also locals of Fides City. I can figure out their situation."

Enio didn't ask this sentence, it was Galio's own supplement. Since he decided to do it, he would do it thoroughly. Perhaps this is one of the reasons why he can survive in Fides City with his gang, ruthless enough, not as simple as his appearance.

Enio pursed his lips after listening. "I'll come over in a few days."

Galio thought of Councilor Philip sitting outside and pondered. "I'll bring them over. I also want to meet Mr. Lansi in person."

He knew very well who provided these wines to him.

Enio was easy to talk to, but he couldn't decide these big businesses. He had to meet Lansi in person to feel at ease.

At the same time, he also wanted to let Councilor Philip know that he was not a small fry who only had connections locally.

Even in New Jincheng, he had connections!

In this era, people still have great awe for big cities, awe for everything in big cities, and those big figures living in big cities!

In fact, people's way of thinking is very simple. It is definitely harder to survive in a big city than in a small city, and those big figures in big cities are definitely not people they can easily provoke.

This logic is actually no problem, but they ignored one thing.

Those who live in old, dilapidated houses in big cities may not necessarily have the strength of those who live in big houses in the countryside.

Enio didn't refuse. He covered the microphone, agreed after a while. "Lansi agreed. I will pick you up when the time comes. Pay attention to this matter."

After hanging up the phone, Galio returned to the outside. He sat beside Councilor Philip. "Sorry, a call from New Jincheng."

Councilor Philip's action of turning the glass paused slightly. He turned to look at Galio. This was the first time he looked directly at Galio today, and there was also exploration in his eyes.

"I just got an opportunity to meet a big boss."

Councilor Philip seemed to think of something. "I remember Sidney went to New Jincheng. Is he the mayor there now?"

Galio lowered his head and picked up the wine glass to cover the confusion on his expression. He really didn't know that Sidney went to New Jincheng.

This is not because he is ignorant, but because most citizens will not know where the mayor went after leaving the city where they live. No one cares about this; they only care about themselves and their lives.

"Yes!" Galio nodded. "So?"

Councilor Philip shook his head. "We will discuss the share matter after you come back."

Galio nodded, agreeing with a bit of apology. "I will come back as soon as possible."

After sending away Councilor Philip, Galio took some of his confidants and backbone to the car. He briefly explained the situation.

No one raised the idea of "should not hurt their families" for this. There were also many victims whose families were affected by the Wolf Gang, and no one ever said they were wrong.

The Professor and his wife have been divorced for about five years. Five years is enough to change many people and things.

If it weren't for deliberate inquiries, maybe many people wouldn't even know those pasts that were gradually covered by time.

No one would remember that the Professor's blackening was because the sky full of sunshine couldn't fall on his son who died tragically.

Nor would anyone remember that there were two such people, and they had a father and husband who was feared.

In the evening, the Professor's daughter came back from work. The death of her brother caused some changes in her personality. She began to reject contact with men alone.

Although... this might be a problem, she felt that she was living quite well now, just like her mother.

She made some simple food and called her mother out. The two sat at the table eating dinner and chatting.

It was all content related to her work.

Just then, someone knocked on the door.

Watching her mother about to get up, she quickly said, "I'll go. You continue eating. Maybe it's a neighbor or something."

She wiped her mouth and ran to the door. The old woman shook her head slightly.

After more than ten seconds, she watched her daughter walk back backward with her hands raised high. The old woman felt her movements were a bit strange, and then asked, "What are you doing, dear?"

Her daughter didn't answer her, but a few seconds later, she knew the answer.

Several people came in from outside the house, one of whom was holding a pistol in his hand.

The old woman sat there in a panic, calling "My God" repeatedly, but God seemed not to be on duty today, nor did he hear her call.

Galio walked in from the outside. He looked at the two women, one big and one small, and there was no change in his expression on his face. "I'm sorry, some things may need you to leave with me for a while."

The Professor's daughter returned to her mother's side, hugging the old woman's shoulder, giving her some comfort.

She looked up at Galio. "Where are we going?"

"New Jincheng!"

When this word came out of his mouth, both of them knew it was because of the Professor.

Galio grabbed his left wrist with his right hand and hung it in front of him, which made him look like he had no aggressiveness. "Don't make it difficult for me, ladies."

Things went very smoothly. In the face of these guys holding weapons, they had no ability to resist.

Including the families of others, it was the same.

The riots in New Jincheng had not spread to Fides, but it shouldn't take long before most of the Federation would discuss the chaos in New Jincheng, and the methods to solve the chaos!

In the evening, violent explosions appeared again in the not-so-quiet city. Many people lay on the bed or sat on the sofa and emptied their thoughts.

They didn't understand why the whole city suddenly became like this ghost?

But it seems that the mayor is still in the hospital, the police chief has not been elected, and everything seems to be in a subtle environment.

This seems to be beneficial to everyone, maintaining a strange balance.

At eleven o'clock, Alberto was shaken awake from his deep sleep. He rubbed his eyes and turned over to sit up. This was in a car.

The car was parked outside a warehouse of the Cassia family. This is where they store liquor and weapons.

Although the five major families are partners, in a sense, they are also competitors.

Even in the past, when the mayor hadn't turned against them, the five major families were also guarding against each other, looking for opportunities on each other.

They know the specific situation of the Cassia family, just as people from the Cassia family know the specific situation of the Pasleto family.

Blowing up this warehouse might not be as intuitive as killing how many of their people directly, but this is definitely more heartbreaking for Rick (the boss of the Cassia family) than killing their people!

Those people recruited by Yalan from Yalan only cost a few dozen dollars a month. Even if one thousand died, the loss would only be a few tens of thousands.

But the liquor and various materials in the warehouse might be worth a few hundred thousand!

At this time, except for a few people patrolling around the warehouse, there was no other abnormality. Alberto rubbed his eyes and picked up his gun.

He glanced at Fordis and nodded slightly. Then Fordis reached out of the car and made a gesture.

The cars parked in the darkness all started up and rushed toward the warehouse!

The people outside the warehouse were easily solved by them. Seeing that the task was about to be completed, Alberto also showed some relaxed smiles on his face!

Paul asked him why he raised his hand. After all, he is not a core member, and he doesn't need to participate in such a risky activity.

But he told Paul that from the moment he raised his hand, he pretended to be!

He was very grateful to Paul for bringing him out of Sumuli Island, seeing this prosperous world, and having his own industry, so he wanted to do something for Paul.

In fact, there is another relationship. At the beginning of the war, the intensity of the exchange of fire is actually not very high.

At this time, taking the initiative to go on a mission is definitely safer than going on a mission later. He, a non-core member, has already done something for the family. Even if the subsequent work needs him to participate,

with Paul's character, he will not arrange other dangerous work for him!

As long as the warehouse is blown up, he will complete half of it!

The gunfire rang out, but it lacked a little blue light, otherwise it would have more atmosphere.

The gunmen guarding the outside of the warehouse were soon killed. Alberto jumped out of the car and pushed open the heavy sliding door of the warehouse with force.

The lights inside suddenly turned on!

Pitch-black gun barrels were aimed at him. Before he could react, he was flown out by a car!

The next second, the car was turned into a sieve!

Alberto was difficultly helped up from the ground by Fordis. He saw a smiling face. The glass between the two shattered quickly, then splashed with blood, stained red by blood, and could no longer see the appearance of that person!

This is a trap, a trap waiting for them to take the bait. Someone betrayed them! ===== CHAPTER 363 =====
