Chương 118: Chapter 25 The underground kings
" So, who can tell me what was her objective in the mines?"
A cheeky-looking man covered in gold said with a bored expression while playing with his golden dagger. He spun the dagger, glancing between and forth to other veiled members that held an absolute positions like him. He knew these men and women were powerful enough to use their informal authority over the formal authority of the government by their sheer wealth and force.
" She seemed to visit the Big Mama. I don't know what they have talked about since they are very sensitive about their inner matters and it seemed to revolve around the slums."
The woman in the mask spoke slowly, exhaling purple smoke from her silver mask. Her mechanic eyes were focused on the expression of other people.
The man with golden teeth, placed his feet on the table while eating the apple.
" Probably about those newbies who broke the taboo. We have warned them before, ain't us?"
He laughed, pinning his knife to the table with amusement. His eyes were filled with greed and madness.
The slim handed placed his head on his hand while pondering their reports about them because their movements were essential to their business. A business that revolves around big money that was protected by them and used for their next big project.
" Big Mama, ain't gonna leave us alone. Should we get rid of that woman? I mean we could hire some assassins from Roxan or buy some mercenaries from either south or the land of mercenaries."
The golden teeth man replied, biting down his apple with a bloodthirsty look. He was eager to get rid of her since she was his neighbor and she was opposing his movements to certain areas, including his drug business which cost him a lot. Therefore, he proposed to kill her before he uses any more funds from his pocket.
The augmented woman rolled her eyes while crossing her legs. She was exhausted to hear this idiot's words, knowing her murder would cause outrage in the mines which was the worst thing that would come to their asses. Especially, the government was sniffing around them to find their dirt before they could hide it.
" Are you out of your God damn mind? They will butcher us as soon as they hear about her death. Do you think councilors would let us roam freely after her death? She is a necessary tool for our survival."
She said, shrugging her shoulders with indifference in her tone. Others agreed with her words, knowing the demise of Big Mama would cause some troubles in their sites. Furthermore, bribing the government cost them a lot, and adding more than the original would mean adding more losses to their accounts.
" Well fair enough though, but can we return to our topic? What about the dog? She is sniffing around our shit."
The golden man spoke, showing his great interest in this matter. The slums were the biggest market they could get into and fill their pockets currently except for some higher-ups and mine scums. Giving away that big piece of pie was just no no to him.
" Then we just have to shift the blame to someone. However, there are a few sacrifices in the slums. It is wise to blame an honorable person."
The slim man said, throwing the image of one elderly man to them. He was clad in church clothes and was laughing with the children in the photo. He looked like a totally loving person.
" Interesting, so how can we gaslight this man? He is a quite famous fellow, ya know. He isn't an average Joe."
The golden teeth man chuckled while glancing at the slim man with interest. As a head of the black market, he knew quite many famous figures in the streets that were either loved by everyone or hated by everyone, including this elder who was quite famous for his kind heart.
" It is easy. We will plant a few liters of liquid inside his house and guide the dog to his house. I believe she would no choice but to arrest him. Henceforth, creating discord between the slums and the city."
He said while looking at the expressions of the others with a sharp look.
