Please listen to the voice of black magic

There are three major gangs in Kedax City-originally.

After the large-scale black magic incident caused by the Abyss Order, the Nares Gang, the oldest local gang, and the Kalitis Gang, the youngest but fastest-expanding gang, can be said to have collapsed directly.

Although they have not been completely eliminated yet, if things continue like this, even if others do nothing, the two former gangs will naturally disappear.

After the Nares Gang lost all its core members, other middle and lower classes were fighting among themselves and vying for power.

The Kalitis Gang is facing a similar situation.

During that black magic incident, the Archon of the Abyss Order fell, but it basically hollowed out the base camp of the Kalitis Gang in a literal sense.

Although the Kalitis Gang did not lose all its top leaders at once like the Nares Gang, the original boss and most of the cadres were directly gone.

Therefore, in the chaotic and out-of-control situation, the Kalitis Gang naturally started an internal fight. The situation was even worse than that of the Nares Gang, and the fighting was more intense.

Only the Coulier Gang, one of the three major gangs, suffered no losses at all in this incident, or it should be said that they were not involved at all.

After discovering the problems of the other two major gangs, the Coulier Gang chose to sit back and watch.

Until not long ago, the Nares gang, or the men of Rodrick's group, were brutally murdered in a warehouse used to store smuggled property.

Although two people are still alive, they are completely crazy, and it is impossible to ask anything from their mouths.

However, even knowing this, Annan still asked Hank to drive him to the lunatic asylum to have a look.

The lunatic asylum, or more accurately the mental hospital, where the two people who had survived the previous murders lived was located in the suburbs of the southwest, a short way from the city, and stood on a small hill.

After arriving at the mental hospital, Annan felt that the scenery here was nice and quiet enough, and it was indeed suitable for a retreat.

It was not visiting time when Annan arrived, but this private mental hospital did not have strict rules. After proper communication - and a small tip - he still met the two gang members who had gone crazy.

"Yeah."

Annan stood outside the isolation ward with his chin in his hands, observing the motionless patients behind the closed iron windows.

"Do you mean completely crazy?"

According to the psychiatrists and nurses here, the two patients who were sent here not long ago are completely irrational. They sometimes hurt themselves, so they have no choice but to be locked in separate rooms, and Wearing bondage clothes around the clock.

"Although I never thought of asking them what happened, these two people are probably really tortured by black magic."

When Annan saw the two patients in the ward, he had some inspiration.

To put it simply, it was intuition. He felt that these two people were driven crazy by some kind of black magic.

"The Coulier Gang."

In fact, Roderick has already made some guesses about who is the real culprit of this murder that cannot be made public.

The main reason why Roderick entrusted Annan to investigate was not to find someone who did it, nor was it really to recover the crazy patient. It was just a good excuse.

His real purpose is to find the black magician who did it, and to prevent similar incidents from happening again.

"Really, just say no."

After Annan understood this, he quickly figured out why Roderick didn't explain this.

Because Roderick didn't want to cause unnecessary things at this time, such as a battle between black magicians, or leave too obvious traces of black magic.

"In other words, if you want to target the black magician and find some traces, it would be better if the crazy guy can recover and ask the answer directly. It's impossible."

Annan did not have unnecessary contact with two crazy patients, and he would definitely not be able to ask anything.

After seeing the situation of these two people, he left very simply.

Annan went directly to Roderick's new residence. Roderick said that he would not go out today, and he should be able to find him when he goes back now.

"The investigation was completed so quickly? Did you find anything?"

Roderick was a little surprised that Annan came back two hours later.

"No, I'm not powerful enough to find clues when nothing is left."

Annan directly expressed his conclusion.

That means nothing can be investigated.

"Rodrick, please stop being polite to me and tell me what you think."

"this……"

Roderick would entrust Annan to investigate this incident, which was naturally not perfunctory, but he did need to admit that he wanted to repay him.

Regardless of whether Annan found anything useful in his investigation in the end, he would still be given what was due.

Of course, it would be great if you could actually find something useful.

"Okay, actually it's not too complicated... It's just that we don't want to cause more disputes."

After Roderick speculated that the incident in the warehouse might have been caused by the Coulier gang, he had been on guard for more accidents.

If the Coulier Gang, whose power is intact, really wants to take action against the current Nares Gang, although it cannot be said to be one-sided, the final result should be that the Nares Gang is completely eliminated.

"Veronica and I have discussed it, but we don't understand... we don't understand why the Coulier Gang would attack us at this time. Even if they want to speed up our destruction, there should be a better way. Use Practicing black magic cannot be called a wise move."

It's actually okay to say that one of his subordinates was killed, people were dying every day recently, but if it was related to black magic, then it would be a different matter.

Rather, it is precisely because of his connection with black magic that Roderick, as a vampire, must be cautious.

"Now we have absolutely no idea what the Coulier gang is thinking. We don't know whether it was their boss's order or whether their men were out of control. We also want to talk to them directly, but the risk is always too high... In the final analysis, we can All we can do is take precautions and try to understand as much as possible."

In addition to entrusting Annan to investigate the matter, Roderick also asked others to conduct a more in-depth investigation, but it seemed that there was not much hope.

It is impossible for him to focus all his strength on this aspect. Other things also require manpower. In the current situation, it is really difficult for him to allocate more strength.

"Um……"

Annan rubbed his chin and thought for a while.

"The Coulier Gang is indeed very difficult to deal with. Oh, as a consultant, I really don't have any good methods. I still don't understand these things. However, as long as there are no more things related to black magic, it will be fine. .”

Annan thought of a solution that was not a solution.

"Rodrick, would you be interested in hiring a strong fighter?"
