Chapter 111 The Final Deal

The sun shone on the earth, adding dazzling gold to the yellow-gray land. On the deserted street, Becky carefully leaned out of the alley, holding a piece of rotten bread and a few shriveled tomatoes in her arms, and a few worn banknotes in her bag.

Her eyes looked uncontrollably at the bread in her arms, and she couldn't help swallowing her saliva. The wheat aroma of the bread and the fruity aroma of tomatoes overwhelmed the nausea caused by the rotten and sour taste. She could feel the rumbling and faint pain coming from her stomach.

She hadn't eaten properly for almost three days, but she couldn't eat the delicious food in front of her because there were two hungry brothers and sisters at home waiting for her food. The money she had worked hard to earn a few days ago was robbed again. This time she planned to bury the money in her own graveyard, hoping that her father and mother could bless them so that they could survive with the money.

Becky used her relatively nice and clean skirt to cover the food to prevent it from getting dusty. If her brother, who was already ill, ate unclean food, he might not survive this week. Thinking of this, Becky couldn't help but feel sad.

Mexico was not short of food, and even if there was civil unrest, it was far from the point where there were refugees. But a family that lost all its adults obviously had no ability to take back its land from others. The Becky family became a sacrifice to their village. In a chaotic era, wealth does not belong to those who cannot protect it.

Becky had no way out, she could only dig out her mother's cosmetics, her mother's skirt, and her mother's high heels.

"Hey, how come there is such a pretty girl on the street in the broad daylight?" A frivolous man walked up to Becky. If it were before, she would have run away in fear and sought help from her parents.

But now, she just smiled awkwardly and covered herself more tightly with clothes, "Sir, I already have an appointment."

The man didn't care about Becky's refusal. He put his hand into Becky's skirt, then hugged her and took a deep breath while exclaiming, "Ah! It smells so good. How much is it?"

Becky didn't dare to offend the man, nor did she want another business, but she didn't dare to shout loudly. In this world, anyone who can go out during the day is not a good person, and the one she called was definitely not a helper.

She shrank back a little and moved herself closer to the man, trying to soothe his anxious mood, and said softly: "Sir, I'll come later and wait for you here, okay? I really have an appointment." She had to send the food back, otherwise her poor brother and sister would starve to death at home.

The man completely ignored Becky's refusal. He laughed and picked Becky up. "It's okay, girl. I'll make the appointment and you can go get the next one."

The man ignored Becky's pleas and forcibly carried her up, then walked into the depths of the alley. Becky was not afraid of what would happen to her next. She was only worried about the food that fell on the ground, and she couldn't help crying.

"Sorry, sir. This lady has an appointment with me." Zhu Fujingguang rubbed the blood on the soles of his feet speechlessly. Who on earth killed someone in front of this candy store that made him step on it?

Zhu Fu Jingguang's expression was too calm, and his clothes looked too clean and tidy. In short, he didn't look like someone who was easy to mess with.

The man was very smart and put Becky down immediately. "Oh, sorry, sir. I didn't know. Please, please." He said as he backed away and ran away, completely losing the bravery he had just shown towards Becky.

Becky looked at the noble and elegant man in front of her, wearing a half-mask, and her cheeks turned red. Although she didn't know why such a nobleman would like her, she also knew that this was her only chance to change her fate.

So she quickly straightened her clothes, leaned over delicately, and tried to put her breasts in the man's hands. But she didn't expect the man to dodge, and Becky fell to the ground without any preparation.

Becky sat on the ground in a daze. She noticed that the man's eyes were not on her exposed body. Then she realized that she had misunderstood his intention.

She was not happy or ashamed about this, but was furious. She roughly adjusted her clothes and said with gritted teeth: "Sir, since you don't want to buy me, you might as well let me go with him, so that I can earn money for dinner tonight! Now, because of your kindness, my brothers and sisters and I are going to starve to death!"

After saying that, she didn't care about the dust or not, and quickly picked up the bread. She squatted on the ground, trying hard to pick out some edible parts of the tomato from the dirty soil, and then tried to spread it on the bread.

Seeing this, Zhu Fu Jingguang was not angry, but just sighed helplessly. If Yayoi hadn't said that he wanted to try this famous candy store on the Internet, he wouldn't be here.

The girl in front of him didn't have the ability to survive in this world, so even if he saved her today, it wouldn't change anything. Giving her hope and then wiping it away with his own hands was a devastating blow to the girl.

Kindness, but kindness without ability is not worth mentioning.

But he still pulled the girl up and gently straightened her torn skirt. "I can give you money, but you can't protect it. Take this can of candy. It should be enough for you to last for two days."

Becky looked at the palm-sized sugar jar and laughed sarcastically, "Two days, what's the use of two days? What's the difference between starving to death today and starving to death two days later?"

However, she still took the candy jar with both hands. Looking at the familiar jar in front of her, she was silent for a moment, and then asked in a low voice: "I ate it on my birthday three months ago. My mother bought it. Sir, how much is this can of candy worth now?"

Zhu Fu Jingguang was silent. He didn't want to tell the girl the value of the candy jar, nor did he intend to deceive her. Her life might not be as valuable as this can of candy.

Seeing this, Becky smiled softly, "I understand, sir, thank you." Then she picked up the bread and candy jar and staggered towards the depths of the alley.

Zhu Fu Jingguang looked in the direction the girl left for a while, then he patted the corner of his clothes that the girl had just touched and walked out of the alley.

Waiting for him in the car with Yayoi Kage and Elizabeth.

Zhu Fu Jingguang opened the door and sat in, complaining: "The news that Gonzalez is about to become the leader seems to be of no use. The lower class has not returned to peace and is still as chaotic as before." The girl's skirt looked very fitting and new, so her original family background should be very good, and she only fell to this point recently.

Kazukage Yayoi took the candy jar, glanced at the price tag, raised an eyebrow and asked, "300 dollars? Is that the average monthly salary in Mexico?"

Elizabeth sighed, "I heard that the mafia in this neighborhood is very serious about collecting protection fees. There is no way, the family has no time to control them, so they start to do whatever they want."

"Sometimes I wonder what these people did wrong to be born in Mexico. They worry about staying alive every day, not knowing whether they will die in the next moment. Just being alive has already exhausted all their efforts. With such a life, what is the point of being born?"

He Jing Yayoi said meaningfully: "There is no point in thinking about this. You are not the savior, Elizabeth."

Elizabeth was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "I know, even if there really is a savior, it has to be a god like you, Lord Jing."

...How offensive!

Thinking of the series of actions of the Fire Spirit Cult, He Jing Yayoi looked at Elizabeth speechlessly, "Can you please stop saying such unlucky things?" If he had not discovered the authority of Bishop Okuyama in advance, he would have really become the "savior."

Hmm? Elizabeth obviously didn't understand what she said wrong. She tilted her head and looked at him in confusion.

"…It's nothing. This matter has nothing to do with you." He Jing Yasheng rubbed his forehead. He didn't want to tell Elizabeth about what happened between him and the Fire Spirit Cult.

"By the way, how is the situation with Gin? The organization can't give up so easily, right? I asked them to contact you at the beginning, but it seems that they didn't do it. Now that Gonzalez is in power, the organization will definitely not agree to it."

Hearing this, Elizabeth's eyes flashed with fear. Gin, a name she didn't take seriously at first. But now, the storm that the other party has stirred up in Mexico is definitely not small.

She reported the intelligence carefully: "If they intend to make an enemy of Gonzales, Gonzales will be in a difficult battle, and the civil strife will not end easily. I heard that Waldman has been in the limelight recently. I am afraid that Gin has contacted him."

"With Waldman as a puppet, if Gin can also win over the royal family to be his backer, Gonzalez's succession party may not end so easily."

Hearing the unexpected words, He Jing Yayoi felt quite strange: "The royal family... do they still have the guts to attend? After Paulino died, Leonor fled like a rat. Are the other royal family members who come to the Francisco family party not afraid of being wiped out by the family on the spot?"

Elizabeth sneered and said, "The royal family is just a bunch of people. They have obviously become rotten fish and shrimp, but they still think they are the golden branches and jade leaves. Lionel couldn't stand my mother being on an equal footing with her, and felt that I was blocking her daughter's limelight, so she pestered my father who put profit above all else to kill us mother and daughter."

"Of course, Paulino would not do a business that would lose money. I'm afraid he used this as an excuse to ask the royal family for a lot of land and property."

Kazukage Yayoi never told Elizabeth the truth, but she did guess it. "Indeed, in your mother's case, the royal family compensated Paulino with a manor and the forest next to it. Then Paulino was very lucky and found a diamond mine in it."

"As for you, it was mainly because Paulino saw that Lionel wanted Melissa to become the focus of the social circle, so he chose you to be the victim."

"He couldn't stand the fact that both of the royal children were taking up the spotlight."

Elizabeth was not surprised at all. She replied with a half-smile: "But Lionel gave my father something in exchange that is worth more than me."

Kazukage Yayoi nodded, "Yes, she made sure that Bal's marriage partner would not be a member of the royal family. Besides, Paulino wanted to use this incident to get Andrew out of office."

"Although their relationship doesn't seem to be very good on the surface, in fact, Andrew and Barr sold drugs to foreign countries without the knowledge of Paulino. Well... this is why I came to Mexico."

"The goods were sold to Japan. The contact person in Japan was Okubo Amori. The organization wanted to buy his trading route. But he was unwilling to hand over the contact person's information, and was soon killed by the victim's family. The organization sent Gin and me here to deal with Paulino, and then planned to get involved in Mexico. I didn't intend to do it, but Elizabeth, you did it."

Kazukage Yayoi shrugged, "So the situation has become what it is now. Add to that Fourier, Barr, and the conflict between you and Lisa. The organization achieved its goal without losing anything. I'm afraid they have already established their own material transportation channels in Mexico."

"Drugs, people, money. The money that was taken from the people has to go somewhere, and most likely it goes to the organization."

A trace of shock flashed in Elizabeth's eyes. "If the remaining remnants of the party really rebel and drive Gonzalez out of office, wouldn't the organization just get a Francisco family position for free?"

"This... they didn't show off their abilities and did nothing, so how did they become the ones who benefited?"

Kazukage Yayoi did not answer this question. He rested his chin on his hand and looked at the manor not far away. Gin and Vodka were getting out of the car and standing at the door. Gin put on his black windbreaker and top hat again, and he no longer disguised his identity.

Noticing the gaze behind him, Gin slowly turned around.

He Jing Yayoi looked at Gin through the one-way black car window, and then smiled brightly.

"They are ready and waiting for us to come on stage."

Zhu Fujingguang and Elizabeth were both confused, "What?"

He Jing Yayoi lowered his head and smiled softly: "Elizabeth, do you remember what you said when we made the deal?"

"Remember, you will make everyone involved in my mother's case no longer happy, and I will give you everything I have." Elizabeth knelt on one knee and placed her right hand on her heart to show her loyalty. "I thank you for helping me deal with all of them and making their souls unable to be redeemed. So, I will complete our deal, no matter what you want me to do."

He Jing Yayoi stared at Elizabeth and said meaningfully, "Don't be afraid, Elizabeth, this is a big gamble, but the stakes are not you."

“Tomorrow may never come, but tomorrow that comes will definitely be better than today.”
