"I … I … Yes, Madam Gray. As you wish."
Mr. Terk felt as if he was struck by lightning. After his brain understood the meaning of Madam Gray's words, his heart turned ashen, his face withered, and his spirit disappeared. This was because Lady Grey wanted him to go home and prepare for his funeral, so as to prevent his dereliction of duty from implicating his family. She also wanted him to take this opportunity to tell his Patriarch about the Budaman Family's problems, so that they would receive sufficient compensation in the future.
What compensation? Enough compensation to make up for the loss and impact after he stepped down.
The whole thing could be said to be flawless. With the reason, the person in charge, and the exact tacit understanding, everything could return to how it was before. The only difference was that his future and ambitions were gone, while the Budaman family suffered heavy losses, lost a family member, and a gang under their control.
"That's good. After all, you have received a good education. Don't make things too ugly."
"Yes, I will."
He clenched his fists tightly. He really wanted to tell Madam Gray that he didn't want to be dignified, but when he thought about the power that Madam Gray had, the conditions that he could create for his descendants after taking on this matter, and the benefits that his family could gain, he loosened his fists and released the stuffy feeling in his chest. In response, Madam Camilla, who had blue eyes and a pair of long legs, dispelled the idea of letting him end his life in a dignified manner. Instead, she nodded in satisfaction.
"Very good. I think you will like a drama."
After giving her a position as compensation, Camilla shot out hooks from both sides of her legs under the watchful eyes of the two. She swung them down towards Zu An's lower body and soon disappeared from their sight. After she disappeared completely, Mr. Terk, who didn't care about anything else, heard his superior heave a sigh of relief. He smiled bitterly and opened his arms to his superior. The two of them hugged at the same time and comforted each other.
"I will miss my life in the police station."
Mr. Terk's face was bitter, and the other man's heart was still fluttering with fear.
"Ah, you're a good man. I'll go to the theater to watch your play and give you a round of applause."
Both of them felt a chill in their hearts because of Lady Grey, so before the others arrived, they separated and quickly ordered their subordinates to pack up everything so that they could leave this place as soon as possible and prepare to deal with all the problems caused by this matter. Miss Camilla, on the other hand, went straight to the hotel where Li Ke and Sarah were staying. However, in her 'ears', the reports from the other spies kept ringing.
What Noxus people's spies had infiltrated there? What did a gang under a certain family do? What wild gang had obtained weapons that they shouldn't have? Who was the person who sold the weapons to these gangs? All kinds of messy things constantly appeared in her mind, and she quickly found a balance and key point among these things, and came up with a decisive plan.
Eliminate the gang that obtained weapons that they shouldn't have and kill the non-family members of the person who organized this matter. For example, the husband, wife, or the other half of the person's family. On the other hand, Miss Camilla had to consider if other families were involved in this matter and if it was fair. Some of these matters could be resolved by her directly, but some of them could only be dealt with through her brothers, the head of the family that she was loyal to.
But what made her feel a little helpless was that due to the development of Shurima and the supply of weapons to Noxus, the prosperity of Pi City had brought about more chaos. Conflicts between gangs were unbearable, but the most important police department wasn't able to obtain sufficient equipment due to the suppression of the major families. Moreover, the positions weren't occupied by the true successors of the major families. Instead, it was occupied by a large number of commoners and bastard children.
If a fight really broke out, they might not even be able to defeat the gangs that were supported by the family. Therefore, many of the matters that should be handled by them were handled by the secret agents led by Miss Camilla.
This wasn't good. The parts that were supposed to be useful weren't able to perform their original functions, which would cause the machinery of Skin City to malfunction and cause further damage. Therefore, the police force must be increased.
"Seems like it's necessary to increase the budget and scope of authority. But I can't overdo it in case the families feel uneasy."
With a high leap, Miss Camilla arrived at the underground hotel where Li Ke and Sarah were staying and dodged a gigantic steam engine that was thrown down from the sky. And after she dodged, a child who was picking up garbage but was distracted by Camilla, who leaped over and stood on the spot for half a minute, disappeared completely under the abandoned steam engine that weighed more than a dozen tons.
"Focus on nothing else."
Camilla wanted to sigh. If that child hadn't been staring at her like an idiot, he wouldn't have died. But he still died. She didn't continue watching, because the death of the child didn't bring sorrow to the other scavengers. Instead, it was a carnival. The wandering scavengers quickly ran over, making all kinds of strange cries and laughter. They held all kinds of tools, wanting to remove useful things from the big guy's body.
She didn't need to watch to know that a few more scavengers would die in a while, and some new dishes would appear in some places. Therefore, she only memorized the serial number and logo on the steam engine and notified the secret agents in charge of cleaning. Then, she flicked out the hook on her legs and rushed towards a ventilation duct.
The moment her body reached the ventilation duct, she used the hook to deflect her body. She used her sharp legs to cut the railing on the ventilation duct and the constantly rotating fan blades. When her legs stepped into the huge ventilation duct, the metal fragments flew away from her, but not a single piece of debris or stain fell on her body. She just gently patted the dust off her body and put her hands behind her back. With a strange pace, she walked towards the street outside the ventilation duct and a series of houses made of carriages.
"I can't believe you live in a place like this."
Camilla said this sentence with a slightly disgusted voice. She rushed out of the ventilation duct, jumped high, and stepped her legs towards the carriage where Li Ke and Sarah were. The moment she was about to land, her legs were ready to open a hole in the roof of the carriage.
However, at this moment, Li Ke also pressed the presumptuous Sarah down. Countless thick vines suddenly sprouted from the plants that he had left behind and whipped towards Camilla, who was slightly surprised.
