In the early morning of the next day, Su Xiao woke up early.
After washing up and putting on the guard uniform, Su Xiao came to the guard's headquarters.
Before entering the headquarters, I saw a large group of guards entering and leaving the headquarters, looking hurried.
"Hurry up, Lord Oka was killed. This incident alarmed Minister Zuo, who ordered the entire city to search for the criminal."
Hank commanded a large number of guards with a 'sorrowful' expression, but there was something called ambition in his eyes, as if he was the boss after Oka's death.
Su Xiao noticed that there were two guards standing at the entrance of the headquarters, watching all this with cold eyes. Those two were the guards who followed Oka last night. Needless to say, they were definitely Oka's confidantes.
Hank's move may have made the two of them suspicious, but this is indeed an opportunity. If it works properly, Hank may also replace Oka's position.
The guard team is not a big department. Except for Oka, everyone else is just an ordinary guard, and Oka is actually only the captain.
As for the position of team leader, the guards have never had one, not to mention the additional cost of funds, and Oka will not allow the rights in his hands to be divided. Yesterday Su Xiao had already experienced Oka's arrogant character.
The reason why Su Xiao killed Oka was not because the other party put on a bossy posture in front of him.
He needs to quickly improve his status now, and Oak Immortal has no suitable position at all.
As for the interior of the palace, Su Xiao didn't understand, and he didn't want to get involved.
The simpler the plan, the fewer loopholes. He only needs a position that can reach the king and climb up quickly.
Tomorrow is the day to burn down the waste terminal. Of course, the palace will not personally intervene in such a disgraceful thing, and will only send the people below to do it.
Su Xiao has investigated and found that there are two groups of guards in the capital, one is the guards responsible for the security of the capital, and the other is the guards responsible for guarding the city gates.
Generally speaking, this kind of thing should be handed over to the guards to operate, but when choosing weapons in the warehouse before, Su Xiao saw a lot of explosives.
According to the clues in the warehouse, Su Xiao judged that the explosives had just been stored in the warehouse. As for the purpose of the explosives, it is self-evident.
If you want to ignite a large-scale waste terminal, it is obviously impossible to do it by setting fire.
Therefore, Su Xiao needs the position of the head of the guards. As for whether he can see the king, it depends on his personal actions.
"Hank, what happened."
Hank, who was directing everyone, turned his head to look at Su Xiao.
"The boss was assassinated. Just last night, these guys actually found out this morning. You came just in time. Come with me to see Minister Zuo immediately."
Su Xiao felt a chill in his heart, seeing Minister Zuo? This Hank may have no good intentions. He only became a guard yesterday. This is undoubtedly a clue. Do you want him to be a scapegoat? Unlikely.
Already thinking about how to be Hank in his heart, Su Xiao smiled on his face.
"Minister Zuo? That kind of big man wants to summon me?"
Su Xiao pretended to be puzzled, but kept his eyes on Hank.
"Yes, Minister Zuo wants to see you, but I don't know the specific reason."
Hank showed envy, even jealousy.
This sudden good news made Su Xiao a little surprised. He has nothing to do with the high-level palace officials. The only thing that may be connected is, that letter of recommendation? It seemed that the letter of recommendation was far more important than he had imagined.
Following Hank through several blocks, Su Xiao came to a courtyard, and a luxurious villa appeared in his sight.
Hank was a little nervous, and stepped forward cautiously. Two guards at the gate stopped Hank.
"Is this the person your lord wants to see?"
Hank nodded quickly, and the two guards took away Hank's weapons. As for Su Xiao, all his weapons were in the storage space, and it was impossible for the guards to find them.
The guards led the way, and Su Xiao came to a hall.
There was a family eating breakfast in the hall, and an old man with white hair and serious face was sitting at the head.
After seeing Hank, the old man casually dropped the meal in his hand and signaled the others to retreat, leaving only a strong man standing behind the old man.
The strong man gave Su Xiao an extremely dangerous feeling. Although the opponent was unarmed, Su Xiao noticed the thick calluses on the opponent's fist bones and the flattened fist bones.
This is a physical master, the old man's bodyguard.
"Your name is Hank, is this the new guard?"
The old man speaks at a slow pace and has a calm demeanor.?.
"Yes, yes, my lord."
Hank began to struggle to speak, very cramped.
"Go down."
The old man might be a little dissatisfied with Hank's nervousness, and didn't look at Hank at all.
Hank lowered his head and retreated to the door, before disappearing from Su Xiao's sight.
"I am the left minister of the kingdom. Carlos gave me a lot of interesting collections. As his nephew, I should have taken care of you.
It's a pity that Carlos went out of the city yesterday very badly, and my collection was also lost. I can't find him, so of course I have to find his nephew, which is you. "
Su Xiao guessed the outline of the matter.
Carlos was the black market businessman killed by him yesterday. After Carlos' death, the left minister's "offering" failed. When Carlos could not be found, the left minister came to find Su Xiao to replace him.
The black market businessman is really unlucky, not only to be exploited by the guards, but also to enshrine the left minister.
Looking at the current situation, the other party wanted him to replace Carlos in purchasing goods.
Su Xiao didn't understand the transaction between the two parties. If it wasn't for the protection of the other party, Su Xiao would have controlled the left minister long ago.
However, this kind of opportunity to contact the high-level officials of the kingdom is also very rare.
"There is no problem with the collection. I know all about Uncle's channels. He was seriously injured yesterday and is recuperating, but"
Minister Zuo frowned, looked at Su Xiao squarely and said:
"I can get the collection I need, and you can ask for the conditions. I heard that your captain died yesterday. If the matter is settled, I will let you be the captain of the guard."
Half an hour later, Su Xiao left Minister Zuo's courtyard and strolled on the street.
Things were progressing fairly smoothly, but the conditions proposed by Minister Zuo gave Su Xiao a headache.
Not only that, after Minister Zuo put forward the conditions, new tasks appeared in the Reincarnation Paradise at the same time.
[Trigger side mission: Zuo Chancellor's Collection]
The Collection of Minister Zuo
Difficulty level: lv.2.
Task introduction: Minister Zuo has a very rich collection, and all valuable collections will be favored by this greedy old guy
Task Information: Kill the owner of Mount Korpo and get its teeth. (Master of Mount Korpo: One Piece's ferocious beast, a gigantic feline.)
Task deadline: within 10 hours.
Task Reward: The identity of the leader of the bodyguard.
?Punishment for failure: Expelled from the guards and wanted for unwarranted charges
Su Xiao knew who the owner of Korpo Mountain was, that huge tiger, which almost killed the young Luffy.
With a long sigh, after entering the world of pirates, the opponents he encountered were all too strong, which made Su Xiao a little helpless.
One day, he will kill all the way with the long knife in his hand, and he will never be as timid as he is now.
But One Piece World is too dangerous, he doesn't even have the qualifications to go all out.
Still too weak, you must learn to forbear properly before you become strong.
The owner of Korpo Mountain is very strong, at least not something that Su Xiao can contend with now, but no matter how strong it is, it is just a wild beast.
Being unable to contend head-on does not mean that Su Xiao cannot kill the tiger.
