Chapter 178 Intelligence Situation
Chapter 178 Intelligence Situation
After the broadcast ended, it was back to the car music.
Melodious music sounded in the car. Music that Fang Wuwei and others had never heard of echoed in the car. It seemed to be the pop music of this world, but it was not something that Fang Wuwei and others could appreciate.
"Oh... things don't seem to be peaceful lately~"
Just as Fang Wuwei and others were thinking in silence, the driver in front suddenly spoke, breaking the silence.
"Guest, please be careful during this period. The Far East Society's activities are not limited to the Central City area. They also cover several surrounding communities."
"Really... How much information do you know, Master?"
The driver raised his eyes and glanced at the rearview mirror, then looked at Ikeuchi Haruhiko who was looking at him through the mirror, and then smiled carelessly.
"You're right to ask me about this. If we want to make a living, we have to be well-informed. And I'm the intelligence chief of this area! Not to mention these big things that most people know, I even know the gossip that the aunties at the entrance of the village in District 00 are talking about!"
The driver boasted proudly, revealing his slightly yellowed teeth, and then he kept talking, and it was obvious that he was a very talkative person.
Fang Wuwei and the others did get a lot of useful information from the driver, and they had to admit that the driver was indeed knowledgeable...but most of this information was not very valuable, because it seemed like it was information that ordinary people could get with a little searching.
The current national situation is still managed by the national government on the surface, but secretly the land is ruled by the magic family.
This is something that most smart people already know. After all, no one is a fool, why are those magicians so high-profile?
In the current situation, the Brun family is the dominant family, with four other high-level magic families under them - Elvin, Elizabeth, Kazama and Hasegawa. These five powerful families occupy three-quarters of the territory of the Midtown, and the remaining quarter is residential and commercial areas, where most wealthy families live. Due to the prosperous commercial atmosphere and the bases of various families in the Midtown, adhering to the principle of "it's nice to stay under a big tree", the housing prices there are now very expensive.
The other magic families can be roughly divided into four factions within their respective territories, and they obey the arrangements of the four high-level magic families respectively.
The four high-ranking families have been in constant friction and conflict for years, and have been competing for resources...but the strange thing is that no one has ever tried to shake the Brun family, never.
Fang Wuwei and others knew that this was probably Ye Tian’s work, and the Brunn family was probably Ye Tian’s base camp.
As for the [Far East Society], the so-called terrorist organization, the driver said something different from what was said on the radio...
"You don't know, that Far East Society or something, I think, it's not a terrorist organization at all."
"Huh? What do you say?"
"That's right. Businessmen like us have run into that group of people quite a few times. They're pretty nice people.
You don’t know, we may occasionally pick up some magicians from magic families, but they are all arrogant, as if they are noble as a mere magician, and they don’t respect us, and they even don’t pay us, but we can’t be angry, right? But that group of people is different, we have given them a ride many times, and there are some high-level magicians among them, but they are all easy to talk to, respect us, and pay us enough. "
"Is this the standard you use to measure an organization?"
"Isn't that enough? Be nice to people, give them a lot of money, and I'm just a runner, this is more than enough!"
Fang Wuwei was speechless, but it seemed that what he said made some sense, so he did not refute it.
"never mind......"
Fang Wuwei took out a cigarette from his pocket and handed it over. His skillful movements made Chi Nei and his daughter stare in amazement.
Why do you have this thing?!
However, the driver in front snorted when he saw this, and without hesitation, he took the cigarette from his hand and put it in his mouth. Then he rubbed two fingers together, and a flame came out from his fingers, lighting the cigarette.
Of course, after lighting a cigarette, the driver did not forget to open the window. He could see that the three people in the back probably didn't smoke, so he pressed a button on the side of the car, and a cool breeze blew in the car, blowing all the second-hand smoke out of the window along its trajectory. The three people in the back seat didn't even smell the smell.
"Master, I would like to ask, what is the current situation of the Brun family?"
The driver raised his eyes and glanced at the rearview mirror, and saw Fang Wuwei in the back seat taking off his blindfold. Through the mirror, the driver looked into the scarlet eyes.
"The Brun family... I don't know. There's not much information. But there's someone in there that everyone has been talking about."
"Who?"
"A man named Ye Tian, who was said to be just an apprentice of magic more than 20 years ago, was able to marry the eldest daughter of the Brun family. He is still a legend among many young people and the number one gigolo."
The scenery outside the window kept receding, there were fewer and fewer pedestrians on the roadside, but more and more cars on the road.
The driver seemed to have a lot of information and was well-informed. Under the hypnosis of Fang Wuwei's illusion, they finally got something more valuable.
Ye Tian seems to have many descendants, perhaps because he has many wives...but most of their descendants are not in the Brunn family, but have gone out to work hard, and some have already started their own families.
The Brun family seems to be in chaos, with many ambitious people gathered there ready to make moves, but it seems that they dare not act presumptuously because of Ye Tian's existence.
The top levels of the national government have been sidelined, and each magical family has sent personnel to high-level positions in state agencies. The various new policies and laws that have been introduced are ostensibly for the people and society, but in fact, the vast majority of the benefits flow to the various magical families. They are the biggest beneficiaries.
This is why most people believe that this country has been secretly ruled by a group of magical nobles, especially the Brun family, which has actually unified the world long ago and established a dictatorial hegemony. The people have no freedom and no human rights at all. This country needs to be saved.
Therefore, the Far East Society came into being, led by six extremely powerful magicians, who rebelled against the rule of the magic family nobles and brought peace to the world.
At Fang Wuwei's signal, Ikeuchi Dongyan asked the driver in front of him about the Ikeuchi family. Interestingly, they got a very interesting answer from the driver.
"Ikenai? Oh... Are you talking about the magic family that was wiped out by the Brun family more than 20 years ago? Wasn't it destroyed a long time ago and became the first victim of the Brun family's hegemony... Oh, the guests are here."
The three wanted to ask more questions, but they had already arrived at their destination. The driver turned around and smiled brightly.
Fang Wuwei and the other two did not stop. They opened the car door and got out. The driver reminded them to take their belongings with them and drove away.
"Mr. Fang..."
"Yeah... that driver is most likely a member of the so-called [Far East Society]."
"Looks like we're lucky... Wanna go get some contact?"
"The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Let's go find those people from the Far East Society later."
Watching the taxi speed away, the three stood on the side of the road and watched.
Inside the car, the driver shook his head and felt a little dizzy... This is not good, fatigue driving is fatal!
He immediately stopped the car on the side of the road, took out another cigarette from his pocket, lit it and started smoking.
"Wanlun... Wanlun..."
A voice suddenly came from the car radio, and the driver immediately became alert. He looked around and closed the window, then stretched out his hand and waved it at the radio. A light blue magic circle appeared in his hand, then dissipated and turned into magic power surrounding the car.
"Isa! How many times have I told you not to talk directly on the radio!"
"Oh, I sensed that there is no one in your car~~"
"Pooh!"
The driver named Wan Lun took a deep puff of his cigarette and puffed out smoke.
"what's up?"
"You should go to the central city more often recently. Those magic nobles have been making big moves recently. It seems that they are about to start cleaning them up."
"Where are the other brothers?"
"We will send more people to the central city and surrounding cities. Our strongest magician will also be active nearby recently. You must pay more attention and make sure you don't fall behind in intelligence work."
"...get busy~"
"We just need to hold on during this period, for the sake of the people and for freedom."
“The Far East Forever.”
