People were coming and going in the underground black market. Everyone was wearing black cloaks and walking in a hurry. Coupled with the damp ground with occasional puddles, it gave people a feeling of even more chaos and disputes.

A tall, thin young man was walking among the crowd wrapped in a cloak. He was trembling all over, and he couldn't help but lower his head every time he encountered a fierce and strong man.

He was also summoned. Even though he was poor, he had never been to such a dangerous place, so fear was unavoidable.

In the storm, he stopped in front of a dark tavern.

The tavern was in tatters, with mottled boards nailed to the windows that read "Closed."

He repeatedly checked the address the man gave him, hesitated, and finally took a deep breath and knocked on the door.

According to the instructions, there was a gap of five seconds between the first and second strokes.

"Come in."

Someone responded, and the young man felt happy. Then he heard the sound of the door opening. There was a small gap, and the cold wind rushed in.

He pulled up his thin clothes, bowed in, and said in a cheerful voice:
"I've done the job, where are the star coins you promised?! I-"

The young man's voice stopped suddenly because the black muzzle of the gun was facing him.

Before the sharp and piercing scream left his throat, there was a light on his head, and the laser gun penetrated the skull silently. His body twitched and fell softly to the ground...

"squeaky"

The man who was also wearing a black robe slowly took back his pistol, chewed the hard candy in his mouth, and turned to the screen with his peripheral vision. He caught a glimpse of the leader with black hair and yellow eyes entering the monitoring room and sneered.

"Dispose of it according to the method I told you."

The person behind him, submerged in the darkness, lowered his head:

"Yes."

……

In Dorian's general monitoring room, Yan Zhou's eyebrows skipped a beat, and he had a vague feeling of bad premonition.

"found it!"

Pei Junjing pointed at the young man wearing a gray hoodie on the screen. He was tall and thin, so he was easy to recognize.

Yan Zhou's debugging monitor went back and forth and zoomed in, taking a profile picture.

This side face was left behind due to the inertia when bumping into Pei Ruye.

Yan Zhou narrowed his eyes slightly. This man seemed to be holding something in his hand.

"This person...I seem to have seen it somewhere..."

Pei Junjing hesitated.

After watching for a long time, he said in surprise: "Ruye and I saw this person when we went to apply for student loans. He got into a fight with another person in front of the window of the sophomore year of high school. That's when he was deeply impressed!"

Another person...a sophomore in high school.

Yan Zhou asked: "Since you are a sophomore in high school... please describe your specific appearance and I will ask Liu Qian and Wen Ke."

After that secret realm, everyone exchanged contact information with each other, and Yan Zhou told Liu Qian the information from Pei Junjing.

Liu Qian listened carefully, but unfortunately...

She sighed: "Sorry, I have no impression of this person. Why don't you ask Wen Ke?"

After dialing Wen Ke's optical brain, the young man's loud voice immediately came out:

"What do you want from your brother?"

Yan Zhou silently turned off the speakerphone and said calmly:
"You... big brother?"

Wen Ke froze and turned his eyes to the caller, but he didn't see clearly!It’s Boss Yan!

"Ahem! Um...what's the matter?"

Yan Zhou repeated those words just now, without any hope in his heart, but to his surprise, the person opposite him stopped breathing.

Wen Ke: "I seem to know who the person you are talking about is. It seems that he took the initiative to join me during group fights..."

"But... I am not a young man in society. I have always been a law-abiding citizen. Those who didn't know his attitude would have thought it was the gangster next door who came to surrender."

Yan Zhou: "You rejected him?"

Wen Ke: "Yeah, I'm telling you, there's something wrong with him. I was punished by the class teacher for getting into a fight. It was really weird. Everyone who was participating in the competition had obviously signed a guarantee, so who would report it? As a result -"

He gritted his teeth and said: "I found out that this kid was unwilling to be rejected by me, so he reported me to the ruling academic officer!"

Yan Zhou: "...Okay, I understand. Can you tell me more about him?"

Wen Ke: "Specific information... don't tell me that I went to check it out at that time! This person's name is Huang Dong. His family is poor. Both of his parents died and he was raised by his grandmother. Can you tell me that such a family should not be treated according to normal thinking? Should he study hard and get admitted to the military academy? He didn't want to. He wandered around major gambling establishments and was heavily in debt..."

"It is said that he borrowed money from many people for gambling and delayed repaying it. Not only his friends were among them, but one of his best friends lent him 10 star coins out of good intentions to repay the debt. I hope he can change his ways. Xin, guess what the result will be!"

Wen Ke's words were cold: "He backhandedly sold people to the casino to work as coolies, which was similar to the time when he reported me. Later, that friend escaped from the casino because his force value was pretty good, and we fought him in public. This incident even alarmed the ruling school officials at the time... He should have been ordered to drop out of school, but his grandmother knelt in front of the school and kept kowtowing... There was too much public opinion and there was no way to do it, and there was no sufficient evidence to prove it, so The superiors only punished him and did not make him drop out of school."

After Yan Zhou finished digesting it, he sorted out the thoughts in his mind and asked again: "What is the name of the person who was sold?"

"It seems to be called Bian Lu."

After the call was completed, Yan Zhou briefly explained the information obtained to Pei Junjing.

Pei Junjing nodded: "Let's go find him."

Bian Lu was in Class A of the second grade of high school. They were in class at this time. When get out of class ended, Yan Zhou was watching at the door.

Until a young man in a white T-shirt and navy blue jeans walked out of the classroom and she caught the target.

Bian Lu originally wanted to go to the supermarket to buy a bottle of water, but unexpectedly a young man stood in front of him. Judging from his clothes, he should be a noble.

He frowned subconsciously, trying to avoid trouble, when he heard the man speak.

"Are you interested in chatting about Huang Dong?"

Bian Lu was stunned and looked deeply at Yan Zhou.

……

When he reached a quiet place, he asked impatiently: "What do you want to ask? I'm in a hurry!"

Pei Junjing: "I'm sorry to bother you, but he caused my sister's talent to riot. We just went to find him. He was not in school, so we came to you as a last resort."

Hearing this, Bian Lu opened his eyes slightly, and quickly smiled mockingly: "I'm not surprised by anything he does to a trash like him!"

Yan Zhou looked at him: "We would like to ask if he has any unusual behavior recently. As far as I know, you are in the same class or sitting next to each other."

The atmosphere fell into silence.

Bian Lu didn't want to mention Huang Dong at all, but out of goodwill, he said: "I don't communicate with him very much, but once I heard him laughing loudly on the phone with someone, so I paid attention..."

"...They kept talking about star coins and the black market. I thought at the time that he must be doing some illegal things again, but I didn't listen carefully later."

Pei Junjing nodded and said in an excited voice: "Thanks for letting me know!"

Pentacles… Black Market.

The content is not difficult to guess.

I lost my phone today... I searched for it for a long time and felt that my life has become gloomy (_) Fortunately, it was picked up by a supermarket aunt later... The phone is muted, there is no lock screen positioning, and all the poisonous spots are occupied by me... I am really lucky
