Chapter 235: Adventure Failed

Officer Grayson is very busy. She is busy dealing with people from the parliament and even more busy solving the endless stream of Zaun criminals.

Sometimes there are pickpockets or fights. Such things often happen between Piltover and Zaun, and it is usually the people from Zaun who start the fight first.

Sometimes, when facing some juvenile criminals, she didn't know what to say. They had nothing, some of them didn't even have parents. Crime and scavenging were their only ways to survive. If they were deprived of the right to commit crimes, they would starve to death.

But if they are allowed to commit crimes, what will happen to the public security of Piltover? What about the safety of Piltover residents? What did those ordinary people in Piltover who were harassed do wrong? Why should they be held responsible for those children not being able to afford food?

Although it is about love and justice, everyone is also very realistic. Piltover is a place that values background and ability.

Just like myself, if I were a Zaun, I would probably not be able to be even the most basic detective, because one of the most basic requirements for a detective is that no one in the family has ever committed a crime and the family is happy and harmonious.

Most Zaun people cannot meet these two conditions.

Even if the child is clean, your relatives and your parents may not be clean.

But--

"Everything has a limit, Vander. You should understand why I came here."

The bombing was truly terrible.

Sheriff Grayson looked at Vander in front of him. The other party no longer had the bravery and courage he had in the past. Just like himself, he had changed from a graceful girl and a naive detective to the sheriff he is now.

"You can't put the blame on us Zaun people for everything."

Vander was also very troubled. If it were usual, he would just have to find the murderer of the bombing and hand him over.

But it’s not possible now, because something happened to his daughter.

Wei, expose the mistakes they have made. How could I possibly hand them over ?

But just grab a few bad guys to make up for it?

It is true that he is the Lord of the Alley, but the title of boss is often just an empty title. Over the years, he has been cooperating with the Piltover detectives in arresting people, which has made many people dissatisfied.

Why do everyone join him and believe in him?

It’s because he can lead everyone to fight against Piltover, but Piltover...

Is it really something they can contend with?

Thinking of this, Fandel sighed.

“It really wasn’t done by our people.”

He spoke in an almost submissive tone, but Grayson was also helpless.

This incident was too bad . Such a vicious explosion occurred so close to the Evolution Day. Not only did basically all the detectives have no vacation, but they also lost face in front of foreign envoys and businessmen.

The most crucial thing is that this incident happened in a wealthy area, close to the college, and an entire building collapsed.

This is not something that can be easily covered up. The higher-ups have issued a strict order that if Grayson can't catch the person, then they will send troops to clean up.

So even though it was important for Vander to step on the murderer, she could only force Vander.

Because once the cleansing of Zaun begins, it will inevitably be another tragic scene of rivers of blood.

She had bled enough last time, and she didn't want to bleed again this time.

She believed that Vandal was too.

"Vander, don't make it difficult for me."

"But you're making things difficult for me."

"It is my duty, Vander. You know what I mean."

"Then you should know what I mean."

"So there's nothing to talk about?"

"I'm sorry, I don't see your sincerity in this negotiation, and I can't hand over my people to you, otherwise I will lose my job as the boss."

There was silence between the two men. Both of them knew that they couldn't just stay without a result forever. They'd better make a decision before the decision makers in Piltover became impatient.

"The people of Piltover are always so superior!"

Wei, who was eavesdropping on the side, hammered the wall angrily. She was very unhappy with Grayson's aggressive attitude. In her opinion, Vander should punch this arrogant woman in the face right now.

If Li Ke saw this scene, he would find that it was different from his memory. The communication between Grayson and Vander was not like in the original book.

But this is nothing new to him.

Finally, Grayson sighed helplessly. She placed a signal device in front of Vander and then sighed helplessly.

"Once you figure it out , just use this to send me a message. No one will know."

After saying that, Officer Grayson planned to leave.

However, at this moment, a noise came from the street, and when Sheriff Grayson was wondering, he saw an acquaintance walk into the tavern.

"Li Ke?"

Grayson looked at Li Ke, his mind full of doubts. Logically speaking, he should be chatting with those two thugs now, right?

Or discuss literature with the professor who lent him his house, but how come he ended up here?

Moreover, his body was covered in blood.

"Well, I'm bringing you some dead bodies of criminals, and also to have a drink with the boss here."

Li Ke naturally threw the corpse in his hand aside. Originally, he planned to follow Drizzt's plan and beat up the bastards of the Rat Gang first, throw them to Vandel's territory, and kill a contact person in Piltover by the way.

Anyway, these people are all extremely evil, and Li Ke doesn't care about their life or death. It's just right to lend them their brains.

Then, Officer Grayson would use this opportunity to constantly cause trouble for Vander, and Vander would follow the clues they left behind to find the man named Hilco, and then discover the contraband and slavery business that the other party was doing.

Then Vandel will inevitably face off against Hilco.

Finally, they infiltrated the Gopher Gang, stole their property, and then got away with it.

It was a perfect plan and a perfect adventure, because at that time no one cared about their existence or whether the Gopher Gang was robbed, but instead looked for an opportunity to start a movie.

However, some minor mistakes occurred during the process.

"These are human traffickers, Fandel. Among the traffickers I killed are yours. You are the boss of the black alley and the local tyrant of Zaun. You should take action."

Li Ke, covered in blood, sat on the chair and looked at the people who were looking at him warily. He also looked like Sheriff Grayson, who didn't know what was going on and seemed a little confused, and took a deep breath.

"To be honest, I didn't expect that there would actually be people in Zaun who would volunteer to be slaves."

Yes, that was the accident Li Ke was talking about. His and Trist's plan included releasing the slaves and letting them report to Vandel. After all, it was Vandel's men who did it, and he was responsible for it.

But Li Ke never expected that when he rescued those slaves, those slaves were cursing him and Graves who acted with him, cursing them for destroying their last hope.

The reason is simple.

Sold as a slave.

They can survive.

Sell them to Noxus, Piltover, or somewhere else. After all, slaves are meant to be used, and they are only valuable if they are alive.

But Zaun doesn't care whether they live or die.

So with Trist's 'I knew it' expression on his face, Li Ke and Graves started killing people.

Li Ke was mainly responsible for the killing spree, while Graves was responsible for shooting to add to the atmosphere.

As for adventures and plans, and a chance for resurrection?

In front of the angry Li Ke.

That's bullshit.

Because at the moment he took action, he finally understood why the god felt that he could not complete this adventure.

"I thought you couldn't ignore this. It seems I was right."
