Chapter 69 The more you know, the faster you will die (please collect! Please read more!)
In the Iceberg Casino, Ogilvy and his subordinates were having secret talks in the office.

And what they were talking about seemed to have something to do with murdering their companions?

"Boss, don't worry, that stupid woman Lark and that fat pig Grey Tad have already gone to hell to meet Satan."

The subordinate smiled sinisterly.

"No trace left?"

Ogilvy, who was sitting on the chair, asked calmly.

"Guaranteed not!"

His subordinates patted their chests and packed their tickets.

"I found someone to bribe the prison guards, and sent the murder weapon to the prisoners inside. We asked the people we arranged in advance to get rid of them. Afterwards, I got rid of all the people who knew about it. I used a false identity throughout the whole process. No one knows my real identity, let alone you."

"What about the monitoring records?"

Ogilvy asked abruptly.

"When I paid off the prison guard, he secretly broke a few key cameras, and the maintenance man will not go to the prison until tomorrow morning."

"Luck and Grey Tad have been in the gang for so many years. The people they have offended may be lined up from Gotham to Seaside City. Among them, there are not a few who have the ability to kill them. No one will suspect us."

After hearing what his subordinates said, Ogilvy nodded in satisfaction, and then said in a serious tone.

"It's a good job, but it's better to be cautious. That old penguin is very shrewd. It's not easy to deceive him."

"Boss, there is one thing I don't quite understand. Why do we have to kill those two guys?"

Hearing this, his subordinate suddenly asked with a puzzled expression.

"Although Lak and Grey Tad ruined the money laundering business, after all, they are old people who have been loyal to the Penguin for many years. The Penguin should be somewhat reminiscent of old love. Now that these two have died for no apparent reason, if he wants to thoroughly investigate this matter... wouldn't it be possible to find us?"

"Anyway, they will definitely go to jail to bear the crime. Let alone ten or eight years, they will not threaten us at all. Since you are still afraid of Penguin, why take this risk?"

"You got two things wrong."

Ogilvy stretched out two fingers and sneered.

"First, that old penguin is a cold-blooded and ruthless monster from the bottom of his heart. He will never really care about the lives of his subordinates. Luck and Grey Tad died in prison. He will only pretend to roar a few words to avenge his subordinates, and then launch a war against motivated gangs."

"Because he needs to maintain the supreme status and reputation of 'Penguin' in Gotham, it doesn't matter who kills people, what matters is Penguin's face."

Ogilvy put down a finger and continued.

"Second, even if they are in prison, those two people still pose a huge threat to me!"

"Luck and Gray Tad, one was in charge of the Iceberg Casino, and the other was in charge of money laundering and shipping. These two businesses can earn astronomical sums of money. Although they have offended many people, there are also many people who form interest alliances with them. There is always the possibility of being released on parole."

"They are the rare confidantes of the Penguin. If they are really allowed to come out, wouldn't it be meaningless for me to design everything I have tried so hard?"

In fact, there is one last reason why Ogilvy did not say it out, that is, he wanted to use the death of two penguin gang elders to make Penguin think that the gangs in Gotham were starting to be restless.

If Ogilvy performs well at that time, he will naturally gain further attention and trust from the Penguin people, so as to eat away more power.

His current foundation is too shallow, and he can only accumulate strength quickly by attaching himself to Penguin first.

After finishing speaking, the subordinate nodded with a half-understanding, and praised.

"Boss's plan is really intertwined. At the beginning, you asked me to release the news that 'Pink Dream' is a fake diamond. Anyone who is interested will go to investigate further. Once the money laundering is found out, Lark and Grey Tad will definitely be arrested. At this time, you shifted the attention of Penguin to Kaitou Kidd, and then killed them completely during this time."

His subordinates continued to flatter Ogilvy and said, "With almost no effort, we got rid of the two die-hard followers of the Penguin, and got the right to operate the Iceberg Casino, which was originally in charge of Lack. This not only eliminates the opponent, but also strengthens us. In this way, the hope of replacing the Penguin will be greatly increased..."

"Hmph," Ogilvy snorted, and said, "Kidd's sudden entry into the game was not in my plan, but his arrival actually helped me a lot. If he hadn't set his sights on 'Pink Dream', I would still worry about how to disclose money laundering information to GCPD without leaving a trace."

"As a result, Phantom Thief Kidd suddenly issued an announcement letter, which really saved me a lot of trouble."

"This means that the goddess of fortune is taking care of you, boss."

Hearing the flattery from his subordinates, Ogilvy smiled knowingly, and promised: "If there is a day when you really control this city, you will be the biggest contributor to my subordinates."

As soon as the words fell, Ogilvy raised his right hand, which had been holding the gun at some time, aimed at the forehead of the subordinate in front of him, and fired with lightning speed.

There was still that happy smile on his face, both of them.

Ogilvy gradually put away his smiling face, glanced coldly at the corpse of his subordinate, and pressed a black call button on the desk.

Not long after, several people in uniform black uniforms walked in, holding a bunch of strange tools in their hands.

After seeing the corpse on the ground, they immediately put it into a body bag, and then began to clean up the blood splattered on the floor.

After cleaning up, he quickly left the room.

During the process, no one asked a word, and no one was surprised.

It seems that seeing dead people is a common thing.

The fact is similar, this group of people in black is the scavenger team of the Iceberg Casino, which is responsible for cleaning up the corpses.

Due to Penguin's excessive pursuit of reputation, he strictly forbids cheating in his casino.

Under normal circumstances, no one dared to touch Penguin's bad luck, but every once in a while, there would always be a few unscrupulous people who cheated in the Iceberg Casino.

At this time, it is necessary to kill chickens and monkeys. Anyone who goes out here will die in the end. At this time, a scavenger is needed to clean up the corpses.

The scavengers invited by the Penguin are all industry elites, leaders in the industry, and they are well versed in the principle that the more they know, the faster they die, so they never ask for any information.

In fact, when Lark held the management rights, he killed more people than Ogilvy.

After the scavengers left, Ogilvy went to the window and looked at the night sky, his eyes were dark and deep, and he didn't know what plan was brewing...
