Book of Gods and Demons

At dusk.

On the first floor of the Tulum Port Police Station, on the northeast side, you enter through a double-opening gate. From the first floor to the third floor, it is the canteen of the police station.

Normally, rows of neatly arranged dining tables in the canteen leaned against the wall, covered with white tablecloths and exquisite tableware, and they were arranged like a buffet and a cocktail party.

Bottles of various colors are neatly placed on the dining table, barrels of freshly squeezed juice are placed on the ground, pots and pots of hot and fragrant black tea and coffee are spitting fragrance on the four-wheeled cart .

Plates, saucers and tea cups made of fine white porcelain, shiny glass wine glasses and drink cups, and sterling silver dinner knives and forks shining brightly under the candlelight. Especially luxurious, the natural ones on the table The decanter made of crystal is a rare and expensive thing.

The specially-made four-wheel lengthened carriage slowly drove into the police station compound, and the waiter in the tuxedo carefully lifted the large square silver dinner plate from the carriage.

The chefs in the canteen of the police station have limited skills. The simple three meals they prepare are normally described as basic-level police officersnot bad, and slightly better than pig food.

Todays buffet reception is to celebrate the promotion of Chief Stein, to celebrate the promotion of a group of detectives, and to celebrate the emergence of such a wonderful thing as Joe in the Tulum Port Police Department As a police officer, I got the Level 1 Thorns Meritorious Medal, which is worth celebrating.

For such a happy event, drinks and food should not be sloppy, and definitely should not fool everyone with things that are only slightly better than pig food.

So the wine is the best wine sponsored by the Vito family, and the food is the police departments logistics office, customized takeaway from a high-end restaurant run by a businessman in the Gaul Republic in Port Tulum.

The huge silver dinner plate was sent to the canteen, from the first floor to the third floor, on the long table against the wall, the plates were neatly arranged together, when the waiter of the restaurant opened the arch When the lid of the dinner plate was filled with fragrance, many police officers in the cafeteria couldn’t help but applaud.

All of them are extremely expensive top ingredients. After being cooked by the top chefs of the Gaul Republic, they have reached Peak’s top ingredients regardless of color, flavor, and flavor.

This time, the logistics department of the police station has lost money. Compared with previous buffet receptions in the police station before, the food grade this time has improved by at least seven or eight.

Perhaps, this has something to do with the former head of logistics being thrown into a black jail. The newly appointed head of logistics is the confidant of Director Stein?

Chief Joe and Stein stood outside the canteen door, behind them were a dozen senior police officers, all of them dangling a large cigar, laughingly looking at the direction of the entrance to the dungeon.

Dozens of black clothed persons stood there like ghosts, expressionless, with a gloomy breath and a strange posture.

Black hat, black jacket, black pants, black leather boots, and black short cloak or long cloak. The costumes of these people are basically printed in a mold, but by carefully identifying some heraldry and secret marks on their chests and cuffs, people with a clear eye can clearly identify their identities.

The Office of Supervision, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Intelligence Headquarters, the Military Police Department… are all the elites of the legendary and powerful departments of the Durham Empire.

Especially those guys from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, their white shirt sleeves are embroidered with a’Z’ badge with grey silk thread. The “Z Hall” of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is a disciplinary department responsible for internal review and anti-spyware. Outsiders know very little about them. It is a secret department covered by thick fog.

The door to the black jail opened with a creaking sound, and a dozen black clothed persons came out surrounded by a stretcher.

He Niwei, who was all dirty, was lying on the stretcher. When she saw the sky outside and smelled the fresh air without any peculiar smell, she suddenly laughed strangely,’he he he’ stand up.

“This woman, crazy?” Joe flicked his cigar butt.

“Its okay with us.” Stein smiled and dropped his cigarette butt and smashed it with one foot: “the past few days, there will be people from the inspectorate and the court to take over those The Lord ladies of the Great Family…some of them…”

Joe nodded with a smile, the great characters of the Great Family in the dark prison, most of them will disappear from there. .

Among them, there are the lucky ones from three families. They will return to the upper class of Tulum Port and continue their beautiful life of spending time and money.

But the lucky ones of these three families, when they return to Tulum Port, they will find that everything in Tulum Port has been re-planned. They are still members of the Committee of Seven in name, but in fact, their power has been reduced to the extreme. They can only rely on the Vito family and the Duke of Ross to survive trembling with fear.

“Close it first, or, these days, dont let them cause us trouble. They have enough blessings and should suffer a bit. This is the same as training a bear. They will be obedient only if they order honey.”

Secretary Stein tidied up his dress and laughed happily: “Well, gentlemen, it’s time for us to celebrate. Please more Major General Long and the others come over. Its time for us to be happy… Be careful. Brothers on patrol should be more careful. There are still so many people in the black jail.”

A black clothed person in the inspection hall. Standing in front of Hineway, she said coldly: “Hineway Jong Harrington, you are deeply involved and suspected in the recent series of incidents in Tulum Port. Please cooperate with our joint investigations. From now on, we will record every action and every word of yours.”

Hyneways laughter stopped abruptly, she was lying stiff on the stretcher, her face pale. , Like a dead man.

Hineville, and several of her subordinates were sent to the carriage for four rounds, and slowly left the police station under the escort of a group of black clothed persons. The door of the police station was closed all at once, and then a celebratory banquet officially began.

‘Long live the Durham Empire’, in the neat slogan, everyone had a drink.

‘Long live the Queen Your Majesty’, amidst the warm slogans, everyone has another glass.

‘Long live the Imperial Army’, amidst the fanatical cheers, the police officers of Tulum Harbor, Major General Duolong and other officers enthusiastically clinked glasses, and everyone’s emotions were surging to the extreme.

‘Tulum Port Police Station…’, the cheers stopped slightly, and then the voice became disordered and in a mess. Everyone, hehe haha, toast to Chief Stein, to Joe, and to all the police officers who were commended and promoted.

In the midst of scrambling, everyone soon drank a lot.

In the canteen on the third floor, police officers and military officers of sufficient rank gather together in the canteen on the third floor.

Secretary Stein has a lot of alcohol. He raised his glass and clinked with Major General Doron, Inspector Abby and others one by one. Joe followed him, and soon his face was flushed and his whole body flushed. Hot and sweating.

It was so easy for Director Stein to finish the round of toasts. He took Joe to a corner of the cafeteria, got a plate, swiftly filled a dozen oysters, and cut half a lemon. , Squeeze out the juice forcefully and sprinkle it on the oysters.

“Just now there was too much to say. Joe, you are already a Level 1 sergeant, and you have won the Level 1 Thorns Meritorious Medal. Although your qualifications are a little bit more junior, your ability lies here. “

“I have always had a plan, but in the past because of some people’s obstruction, this plan has not been activated.”

“But now, I think it’s time… Moreover, this plan has also been approved by your father.”

“Fish sausage wharf, fish belly wharf, fish maw wharf, and some nearby places, you know, that is around Tulum Port, the most smuggled Rampant gray area.”

“I am going to establish the Lovegang branch of the Tulum Port Police Station in the town of Lovegang. You will serve as the head of the branch. You will select some elite police officers and recruit them. A part of the auxiliary police will form this new sub-bureau.”

“Lofgang sub-bureau, in addition to the ground police, will also govern a marine police team. Because of your outstanding contribution this time, Duke Ross Some of our ships will be sponsored to form the backbone of the Marine Police.”

Joe looked at Director Stein in awe.

Fish sausage wharf, fish belly wharf, fish swim bladder wharf… Very good, Joe knows, that is the most rampant smuggling area around Tulum Port. The problem is that even the Vito family has a lot of private goods that are brought in from there.

And the town of Lovegang… well, it is a dark den, a dark den of smugglers, pirate eyeliners, bandits and bandits, and vicious fugitives.

Where is the Lovegang branch formed?

“Godfather, who are you and father?” Joe’s head was confused.

“In the past, Tulum Port was someone elses Tulum Port, so these smuggling routes must exist. But now, Tulum Port is our Tulum Port, so these smuggling routes do not It must exist.”

“In other words, the smuggling routes of those three terminals can continue to exist, but everyone has to pay taxes to us!” Stein solemnly nodded Joe’s. He poked his chest again.

“To the Vito family, to ourselves, pay for the road…no, pay taxes! If you are willing to pay, their business can continue…If you don’t want to pay, kill them!” Stein’Gudong, Gudong’ swallowed two plump oysters and said loudly: “All illegal activities must be severely punished by the imperial law!”

Qiao blinked his eyes quickly, very seriously Looked at his godfather.

“Well, by the way, it is very difficult to form a branch from scratch. So, I will introduce you to two shrewd and capable subordinates. They will be your powerful helpers.”

Lower his voice, Stein quickly added: “If you have trouble, let them go first, and test them more, dear Joe, you know.”

To understand what Stein’s words meant, Stein shook his head, moved towards a corner of the dining hall hall and beckoned: “Lan, Lan, you brother, come here.”

Two A middle-sized young man dressed in casual clothes walked over side by side.

They are exactly the same height, look exactly the same, and move exactly the same. They even have the same pace and frequency.

Qiao couldn’t help shaking his head. He looked at the two exactly the same young men who walked in front of him. He thought he was drinking too much and there was a double image in front of him.

“Hibiscus Lan, Platycodon Lan, they are biological brothers. They retired from the Lulai front two months ago and just returned to Port Tulum. Their experience in the military is very good and they are top The elite scouts, this time our police station has lost a lot of brothers. As retired soldiers, they were recommended by the Tulum Port Veterans Administration Office and they just made up for the police station.”

Stein smiled and patted The shoulders of a young man: “From now on, follow Joe and work hard. Trust me, as long as you know how to cooperate with Joe, you have boundless prospects!”
