Looking around at everyone, seeing their anxious expressions, Jesse spoke again:
"After my death is announced, we can put all the blame on me. We can also crack down hard on a group of human trafficking organizations, to extinguish the people's anger and also relax the vigilance of those people towards the kingdom.
After achieving this goal, we can invite them to the kingdom for a banquet, thanking them for helping the kingdom eliminate this cancer, as a show of gratitude. Then, we can poison their food, ambush them with troops, or take them out during the banquet while they're drunk or in some other state.
I can also lend a hand and take them out, completely eliminating this threat. This way, letting me live wouldn't harm the kingdom. We could even push all the blame onto them. This way, even the kingdom's reputation wouldn't be affected."
After listening, everyone fell into thought, including the old man. Jesse's solution really moved everyone present.
As long as they used this method, they could not only solve the immediate problem but also eliminate the impact of this incident on the kingdom. They could even solve the hidden dangers in the future. This plan, killing many birds with one stone, moved them all.
"Sir, I think this plan is feasible."
An old man stood up and spoke to the old man at the head of the table.
The old man glanced at the old man and then turned his gaze to Jesse. He said, "You're not bad. Your method is indeed feasible. I can let you go. I can even restore your position and reputation after we deal with these people.
But the premise of all this is that you eliminate those people. If you perform to my satisfaction in the following actions and truly achieve your goal, I can fulfill all of this for you. And there will be rewards later."
The plan was indeed feasible, but it was impossible for Jesse to simply come up with a solution and achieve his goal. He had to maximize his value.
Since this method was his idea, and it was closely related to him, he had to put in a lot of effort and couldn't hold back. He even had to bet his life on it. These rewards and promises were all for this.
The old man's words weren't lies. As long as he achieved the goal of eliminating those people, what he said, the promises he made to Jesse, would be just a matter of his word.
"Thank you, sir. I will do my best to deal with those people. I will never let them leave alive."
Jesse understood the other layer of meaning in the old man's words. He was essentially asking him to sacrifice himself and put in a lot of effort to eliminate those people. As for those promises, they weren't a problem for the old man. He wouldn't stoop to using such words to deceive him.
"Good. Let's execute General Jesse's plan. Everyone present should also contribute. First, you should use your influence to push the blame for this human trafficking incident onto the deceased General Jesse. Let everyone know about this matter. Also, send people to express opinions that are beneficial to the kingdom to eliminate the people's anger and minimize the consequences of this incident. As for the follow-up, I'll handle it."
"Understood, sir."
"Understood."
"Understood."
...
After everything was discussed, everyone dispersed. They returned to their homes and immediately arranged for people to carry out the old man's orders.
At the same time that the city was in turmoil, Buggy was also hiding in the city. He immediately went to find the human trafficking contact point mentioned by the dead old woman.
After some inquiries, he arrived at an abandoned manor. The manor was so dilapidated that it was impossible to tell if anyone was living there. It was full of ruins.
Looking around, seeing that there were no pedestrians, Buggy walked directly in. He didn't need to hide now. The city was already in chaos. There was no way the commotion here would expose his whereabouts.
As for those human traffickers, he didn't care. If they found him, it would be even easier for him. As for any danger, with his strength, and being alone, he could escape even if he encountered many people.
After entering, he didn't encounter any human traffickers. Everywhere he looked was a scene of ruin.
Following the old woman's information, he came to a remote house. He entered, and it was also empty. He went straight to the cabinet that led to the human traffickers' base. According to the old woman's information, as long as he opened this cabinet, he would see a path leading to the base.
He opened it and saw a straight staircase extending downwards. The underground was pitch black. Buggy judged that the staircase was still some distance from the ground. Without hesitation, he didn't walk down the stairs. He jumped down.
Walking down the stairs was too troublesome. Jumping down wouldn't be dangerous for him. After a while, he landed on the ground. The ground here was about ten meters below the ground above. It was very spacious when he entered. There was nothing around, not even any furniture. But not far away, there was an iron door. Without hesitation, Buggy walked towards the iron door.
As he approached, Buggy found that the door lock was still a high-tech product. It was almost like the electronic locks of his previous life. He had to enter a password to get in.
Buggy didn't know the password to the iron door from the old woman. He didn't try his luck like the people in the movies. He wasn't interested, and he didn't have the patience. The only solution he could think of immediately was to use "En'yō" and slash it open.
Buggy immediately took action. He drew "En'yō" and slashed downwards.
He held back. He didn't want to use his full strength and collapse the entire basement, burying himself alive. This was a possibility. Although he wouldn't be in any serious trouble if he was buried alive, if he accidentally crushed everyone inside, he would gain nothing.
Buggy slashed at the point where the door met the door frame. The electronic lock shattered under the blow, and the door slowly opened.
The scene before him wasn't what Buggy had imagined. He had imagined that when the door opened, everyone inside would look at him with bewildered expressions.
In reality, there wasn't a single figure inside the door. The ground and walls were covered in crimson. The tables and chairs were overturned. There was nothing else. It looked like someone had specially cleaned up.
This was very clear. Buggy guessed he was too late. The people here were probably in a bad way. Those useful things about the organization had all been taken away.
