Chapter 183 Call
"...I understand. For the time being, I will pay attention to the situation over there and observe it first. If there is any problem, please notify me immediately. Otherwise, don't act rashly."
"Yes, boss!"
Eero, the boss of the current largest faction of the Coulier Gang, frowned and started smoking a cigar after his loyal subordinates left the office.
Eero has just received reliable news that Veronica, who was previously arrested by his order. Buck and Peggy. Buck, the two of them appeared in that famous neutral hospital.
His men were very smart. When they received the news, they immediately sent people to the garbage dump to check the situation, but they found nothing.
The dozen or so people assigned to guard Veronica's mother and daughter over there were all missing, as if they had vanished from the world, and no one could be found.
"call."
Ero, who looked like a nouveau riche, blew out all the smoke in his chest.
He pressed the cigar in his hand firmly against the ashtray, then picked up the phone beside him.
He pressed the phone number skillfully and waited quietly for the call to be connected.
After the phone rang a dozen times, a familiar and majestic voice came from the other side.
"Ero, what happened?"
"Boss, it's like this..."
Eero, the gang boss, showed a humility that his subordinates could never see, and his tone was careful and cautious.
"I understand, you did a good job on this."
"Thank you for your compliment...that, boss..."
Aero quietly swallowed the saliva in his throat.
"What should I do next? The people behind Rodrick..."
"That's right. From now on, you don't need to specifically target Roderick Nares. The things that need to be tested have already been tested. The fact that you are still safe and able to talk to me on the phone is also a good indirect evidence. .”
Erro bit his lip unconsciously, and a lot of cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
"It doesn't matter. As long as you are prepared and don't relax, it will be difficult for the person behind Roderick Nares to find an opportunity to attack you. What's more, the White Knight is still with you now."
When Erro heard his boss say this, he couldn't really feel relieved.
He actually really wanted to ask why the boss asked him to deliberately target Roderick's group, and also ordered him to moderately insult the two women.
This kind of behavior will only irritate the other party unnecessarily.
Even if his own power is relatively strong, if the opponent is desperate, he may capsize in the gutter.
However, as the boss's subordinate, he could not refuse, nor was he qualified to make suggestions.
Eero can only obey the orders of the boss behind the scenes.
Without the boss's strength, he would not be in his current position.
What's more, if he doesn't obey, he may not see the sun tomorrow.
"Ero, don't worry too much. For the time being, it seems that that person will not attack you."
"……I see."
Erro maintained a respectful tone, not daring to express his true thoughts.
"How you want to deal with Roderick Nares in the future is up to you. However, I still have to remind you that if you go too far, you will definitely attract the people behind him."
"Yes, it is."
Ero really had a lot of complaints in his heart, but he could only continue to express his loyalty.
"By the way, have you ensured the relevant smuggling channels?"
"There is no problem with this. One of the Nares Gang's factions has already reached cooperation with us."
Faced with the sudden change of topic, Eero responded without any delay.
"Very good. I may need this channel later. You have to make sure you have this smuggling channel at your fingertips."
"Don't worry, boss, it'll be okay."
"Ero, I trust you. So far, you have never let me down."
Eero couldn't be happy when he was praised by his boss.
Because he knows very well what will happen to him once his boss is disappointed.
"Very well, very well, Eero, I will look forward to your good news next time."
When the boss hung up the phone, Erro put the phone back.
"..."
Aero was silent for a long time.
He slowly picked up the cigar from the ashtray, lit it again, and smoked again.
"no problem……"
Between the faint smoke, Erro whispered to himself.
"No problem, this time, next time, I have no problem...I will definitely become the underground king of this city...With the help of my boss, I will become the uncrowned king here..."
*
Annan originally thought that Roderick would be released in three days, but he waited for a full week before he was finally released by the police station.
It was obvious that the police did this on purpose.
This is very reasonable, because according to what has been observed, Eero of the Coulier Gang has already bribed the police, and he has done it more thoroughly than Roderick.
This can actually be seen when the nightclub was attacked.
The nightclub was attacked and Veronica's mother and daughter were arrested. For these incidents where there were both witnesses and physical evidence, the police here could not open a case from the beginning to the end.
Annan thought it was a bit ridiculous at first. Mingming nightclub is still sealed, but there is no case in the record. It can only be said that this is very consistent with the national conditions here.
"Are they still in the hospital?"
After Roderick finally walked out of the police station, he naturally contacted Annan immediately to understand the current situation.
When he was in the station, he received a message saying that something big happened outside. He knew that Veronica and her daughter were missing and were rescued quickly, but the details of the situation were not clear at all.
"It's a neutral zone over there. There shouldn't be anyone who wants to be the target of an attack. It's better to stay there temporarily before you come back. Besides, their bodies really need to recuperate."
Annan answered Roderick's questions while eating his lunch.
He was suddenly called over by Roderick. After all, he didn't know when Rodrick would be free again. Since there was nothing left to do, he certainly wouldn't stay with the gang.
"Are they okay?"
"There's a little laceration, a little scrape, a little bruise, but other than that it's nothing serious and they're lucky they don't have any permanent problems."
Roderick finally felt relieved after hearing this.
"What are you going to do? Take revenge?" Annan asked curiously.
"...We don't have enough power to tear the skin apart right now."
Roderick was calm.
He is very aware of the current situation and will never act impulsively.
"Now is not the time... When we accumulate enough strength, I will fully repay them for this revenge!"
