v2 Chapter 152: Loyalty and Betrayal

.., Demon Sage

"Where did you go just now?"

In the main house of the Garcia family, Semir Garcia stood in the middle of a quiet room, looking at his daughter with red eyes in front of him, with a serious face.

"I......"

"You went to Horn Shelley."

Without waiting for Tiffany to answer, Semir spoke for her.

"Why did you go to him?"

"Because you miss him, you are childhood sweethearts, you like him, I know."

It is still self-questioning and self-answering, Semir is not usually a tough person, but only in this matter, his attitude is very cold, even if the opposite is his own daughter.

"Don't go to him in the future, can you do it?"

"I......"

Tiffany also seemed to want to argue for himself.

"Can it be done!"

This time it was no longer a question, but a forced question.

There is one and only one answer.

"can."

Tears fell from Tiffany's face when Tiffany finished speaking.

"Tiffany, I'm not trying to stop you from doing something, you always say don't treat you as a child, now you're an adult, as the only heir of the Garcia family, you have to take responsibility, some things are waiting To do it with you, the honor of the family must be carried by someone, which was the case with me back then, and it is also the case with you now."

With his hands behind his back, looking at his daughter who bowed her head and weeping in front of him, Semir also had a little sadness in his eyes, but he quickly hid it.

"I know, the Garcia family bears everything in Demingham. We will move forward with Demingham, protect this land for the empire, and dedicate everything to the empire!"

This sentence was the last words of Semir Garcia's father and Tiffany Garcia's grandfather before he died. He didn't even have any words of concern for his younger generation, but only had infinite nostalgia for Demingham.

His whole life has been devoted to Demingham and loyal to the empire, which is a kind of greatness and also a kind of selfishness.

But there is one thing that no one has to admit, the Garcia family's status among the imperial aristocracy is undoubtedly the first class against the background of this kind of effort.

Demingham, this is a city that ranks among the top five in the non-religious areas of the Ryan Empire. It is natural to be able to become the ruling family of the city and to hold this position for nearly a hundred years.

Semir Garcia did part of his last words, and now he needs his daughter to do another part.

He took out a dark gold pocket watch inlaid with rubies from his arms, pressed the pulp of the thumb on the surface of the gem, printed lines, and a light-colored energy film spread from the pocket watch around, wrapping the father and daughter in it.

This is the heritage treasure of the Garcia family, and only the owner is qualified to hold it.

"Tiffany, how is your talent cultivation?"

Some words can only be mentioned at such times.

"I've got it."

Put your hands together, release them again, and a hairpin appears out of thin air in the palm of your hand.

"Continue to practice, remember, this is the top secret of the family. No one can know it except me. If anyone asks you about this secret in any form, you must tell me as soon as possible."

Seeing his daughter's actions, Semir's face finally showed a somewhat satisfied expression, nodded, and repeated the previous action with his thumb, and the enchantment disappeared immediately.

It is not that the enchantment cannot be maintained for a long time, but the situation does not allow it.

"Go back to the room to reflect on it later, and don't be so willful in the future... Who?"

Halfway through speaking, Semir heard a sound outside and asked aloud.

"My lord, my lady said that His Excellency Darren came to visit."

The guard outside the door replied.

"Understood, I'll go right away."

Rubbing Tiffany's hair, Semir turned to leave.

This time, the place where they met was replaced by a stone path in the small garden outside the villa, and only their confidants followed behind them.

The lights on the roadside are bright, and even in such a late night, the road ahead can still be clearly illuminated.

"Semir, the bait has been bred successfully, and it has achieved some unexpected results."

The bait in Mark Darren's mouth is naturally not the bait for fishing.

"Finally, something goes well, and the situation of the box is not bad. It seems that our plan is going smoothly. Thank you for your hard work. You came to tell me so late, and it's okay to tell me directly by phone. "

Looking at his uncle whose face was obviously tired, Semir Garcia said softly.

"No, the failure of any one thing often comes from negligence in details. This information is very important, and it must be said in person that no medium is safe enough."

"Yes, I was careless... It seems that the recent troubles have distracted me a little, old~"

Raising his hand and pinching the bridge of his nose, the wrinkles on his forehead deepened a bit.

"Does that matter have a purpose?"

"Not yet... I still need some time. This kind of thing is too easy to be frightened. It must be successful once, and the other party can't find it. What about you, how did the investigation go?"

The rhythm of the footsteps became faster, and Mark Darren followed, and the distance between the two and the guards behind them became farther.

"Someone has rebuilt the thunderstorm, there is no doubt about it. When Gooniz died, some people saw flames, lava, lightning and clouds... There were new people who inherited those special talents at that time. I also read the investigation report on the side. Many of the people who died on the long street were professionally trained gunmen. This proves that these people should have a lot of resources. Yes, everything is in their hands, this is not good news, the intelligence department is still following up, but these people are hiding deep, and there is no more information for the time being."

In addition to his position as deputy mayor, Mark Darren is also the head of the Demingham intelligence department. He has the power to obtain all the intelligence information of the police department and the dissimilarity bureau at any time. He also has a group of professionally trained personnel under his command. Intelligence spy.

If you want to truly control a city, you can only rely on the law to control the part on the bright side. The world in the dark still needs some special means to monitor.

After all, some people never see the law in their eyes.

"Thunderstorms... In fact, there is something that has been bothering me for the past two years. When I talk about thunderstorms, I think about it uncontrollably."

The hand holding the bridge of the nose turned and put it back in his pocket, his brows still furrowed.

"I know what's going on, why did those things disappear, right?"

"You still understand me, at that time, we had Gooniz as the inner responder, and we launched the operation after calculating everything. Why would there be an accident? There are really data, equipment, and treasures that can be completely transferred in a short period of time. Strange thing?"

When the government fought the thunderstorm, I don’t know how much it paid. I don’t know how much benefit Xu Lu has paid just to invite other forces in Deminghan that were originally neutral. I thought I could make up for it with the resources in the thunderstorm. I know that in the end, what I see is an empty warehouse.

This incident is like a thorn that has been stuck in Semir Garcia's heart, and now the reappearance of the thunderstorm has turned this thorn into a shadow.

"I remember that I told you about this a long time ago. Back then, there were our inner responders in Lei Yu's team, and who can guarantee that there are no spies in our team? It's just that he was hiding deep, and we searched for so long. I didn't find it, and in a way, it was my dereliction of duty."

"You know that I don't mean to blame you, but the thunderstorm's reappearance made me a little sensitive. Fortunately, this time there are not three dominant-level powerhouses, otherwise I really don't know what to do... I'm sure they won't show up again... Have you contacted Edward recently?"

At the beginning, the four kings of thunderstorms once overwhelmed the Demingham government. As the ruling family of Demingham, they naturally suffered the same pressure. Now at least half of the white hair on Semir's head was forced out by them. Relying on Behemoth Edward and Dalton Warren and a renegade Storm Gooniz barely managed to pull back a city.

"Of course there is a connection. Isn't the day after tomorrow the promotion ceremony of the police station? Some police chiefs' information must be confirmed. I talked to him about the new thunderstorm, and he made it clear that he would not. Let us rest assured that there will be another dominant-level powerhouse suddenly appearing."

Mark Darren seemed to trust Behemoth Edward very much, and Semir Garcia on the side nodded frequently.

"It's just that this thunderstorm is a disaster after all. Some time ago, I asked Warren to contact Goniz, hoping that he would come out and continue to cooperate with us. He refused. I was thinking of waiting for the remnants of the thunderstorm to make trouble. He definitely couldn't bear it. I want to come out and cooperate with us, but I didn’t expect that this commotion would wipe out the opportunity for cooperation, and sure enough, the strength of these people still has to pay a price.”

As the mayor of Demingham and one of the commanders of that battle, he naturally knew a lot of secrets.

"To do anything, you need to pay a certain price. The difference is whether you can pay and whether you are willing to pay. As long as we are willing and able to pay the price, the scale of victory will favor us. This is my creed."

The hand holding the Civilization Stick tightened slightly, and Mark Darren and Semir Garcia looked at each other silently.

The two walked away from each other on the stone path.
