Torres City, pier.


    After walking along the muddy road for some time, Renault could not help frowning when he smelled a faint smell when he was still some distance away from the dock in the city.


    With his keen sense of smell, he can distinguish the smell of feces and urine, and the smell of domestic garbage. It is obvious that local residents regard the cantera River, which crosses the town, as a garbage dump and pour everything into it.


    Renault has no doubt that the Cantera river is also the main source of domestic water for residents.


    This amazing practice may also be called "recycling resources". With so much seasoning added to the river, the water in the river is rich in various nutrients. Taking it as drinking water can be regarded as an additional supplement.


    The sentence "water does not flow to other people''s fields" is the best annotation of this kind of behavior.


    woodlouse''s life style is really very bold and unconstrained. Well, it''s disgusting.


    The little boy who led the way wiped his nose with his dirty sleeve, turned his head and looked at IGOs, and said happily:


    "good Lord, go all the way to the end of the street over there, and then turn left to see the wharf. There are several chambers of commerce near the wharf that can rent boats. It''s said that the business is not good now, and the price is much cheaper than in previous years..."


    At this point, the little guy licked his lips and took a look at Igor''s right hand, which he held tightly, showing a look of money addict.


    Immediately, he seemed to think of something. There was a trace of fear on his small black face. After hesitating for a moment, he asked timidly:


    "generous master, can I just lead the way here?"


    Eagles glared at the little boy, tossed the three tongnals with his right hand, and said sternly:


    "little thing, are you kidding me? Those who do not believe what they say are not only not paid, but also punished. "


    The little boy stepped back and said incoherently:


    "master, I didn''t fool you Clark, that bad thing, appears at the dock every noon. He likes to blackmail children. If he sees me... "


    Igors shook his head in silence, a fact that is too common in the world.


    In the slums of many cities, the Mafia is actually the ruling class. They control almost all the affairs in the area, and even the official agencies have to rely on them.


    This is one of the social ecology of alien towns.


    The only ones who are really unlucky are the poor. On the one hand, they have to be squeezed by the aristocrats, on the other hand, they will be skinned by the Mafia.


    IGOs said "next" to the little boy and threw three copper nards directly.


    The little boy catches tongnar with a smile on his face. After bowing to the crowd, he runs away.


    At this time, Renault suddenly heard a burst of noise in the distance. Judging from the source of the sound, it was the location of the dock. He said quietly:


    "there seems to be something wrong at the dock. Go and have a look..."


    The party set out at once.


    At the end of the street, Renault saw the dilapidated pier.


    At this time, a corner of the wharf was blocked by the crowd, and the noisy voices of discussion and shouting were coming from the crowd.


    “…… Asshole, get out of my way As long as I''m here, nobody can touch Lillian''s finger... "


    “…… Alec, thank you poor man, get out of here We owe money to Morse society... "


    In the noisy sound, there are still some startling voices, and occasionally there are a few metal collisions.


    Renault gives IGOs a wink. IGOs bows slightly and walks towards the crowd. Gulum looks at another island guard and immediately follows IGOs.


    At this time, the arrival of Renault and others was also noticed by many people on the dock.


    These ragged civilians see that the island guards are all powerful, wearing excellent leather armor, and holding weapons in their hands. They just look at the island guards with evasive eyes. Many people still quietly step back and try to keep a distance from them for fear of getting into trouble.


    For these civilians struggling at the bottom of the society, each island guard is the object they look up to, and is also the absolute "superior" in their eyes.


    Soon, IGOs squeezed out of the crowd, returned to Renault and began to whisper what he had heard.


    "Sir, he''s just a poor guy who borrowed money from the Mafia usury. He could have paid the usury. Unfortunately, many businessmen left Torres recently, and there are fewer jobs to be found at the dock..."


    "So he can''t afford the usury. The Mafia want to take his daughter away by force to pay off the debt. The guy is confronting the Mafia with a weapon, trying to stop the Mafia..."


    Renault blinked, glanced at the crowd and said faintly:


    "gulum, take people to drive these people away, they are blocking the way of the master..."Gollum bowed his head without hesitation and answered "yes". Then he called several island guards. They drew out their weapons and marched to the crowd. Before he got close, he yelled out: "get away from the labor force, and if anyone dares not, the labor force will break their legs and leave him in the cantera River..."


    Gollum and others have the appearance of a bully, and the effect is also extremely obvious. When the onlookers see them, they disperse in a hurry, just like meeting the terrible God of plague.


    Several gangsters in the center of the crowd looked at the members of the island protection team with suspicious eyes. They immediately gave way to the road with a smile on their face and stood on the side of the road, waiting for the "God of plague" to pass.


    Although these gangsters do all kinds of evil, they are also the most knowledgeable and eye-catching group among the common people. They can see at a glance that these island protectors are absolutely a group of murderers.


    Only the middle-aged man who was protecting his daughter was at a loss for a moment. His wrinkled face was still angry. After a long time, he hurriedly pulled his frightened daughter away.


    At this time, the road, which had been blocked to death, immediately became very spacious, the street was silent, and everyone was close to the roadside, as if there was a huge danger in the middle of the road.


    Gulum coldly swept around the crowd, where he saw, where people can''t help but droop their heads, dare not look at him.


    He nodded with satisfaction, turned and saluted Renault far away, then made a gesture to indicate that he could pass.


    Renault just stepped forward. Igors and other island guards immediately followed, and a group of people marched forward.


    As he passed by the Mafia, Renault suddenly stopped, coughed and spat heavily on the ground, which happened to spit on a black and smelly stain.


    Then Renault turned his head, looked at the leading black handed gangster without expression, pointed out his right hand to the thick sputum on the ground, and said in a high voice:


    "you, lick it up for me!"
