Chapter 10 Big Chaos

The members of the Viper Gang only resisted for a little bit, and were pinned to the ground by the wooden forks that were attacked from both sides. They groaned with fear on their faces.

While Quillian thanked his colleagues who came to support him, he tied up the gangsters one by one with ropes.

On this day, the same scene appeared everywhere in St. Anton District.

When the police saw someone committing a crime, they immediately rushed forward shouting "In the name of the Crown Prince" and used riot-proof waist forks and spears to teach Xiaoxiao a lesson.

For a time, the thieves, robbers, and gang members in St. Anthony District were in a state of panic and panic, and they no longer had the arrogance they had before.

The residents of St. Anthony District were surprised and happy to see the police crack down on crime everywhere. Many gang members and murderers who committed evil crimes were arrested one after another. They had never seen police officers who were so serious about maintaining law and order!

People in this era have very low requirements for public security. They will consider themselves unlucky if they are stolen or robbed. As long as their lives are safe, they are already satisfied. At this time, the new police team's actions have far exceeded their expectations.

Soon, people spontaneously brought water and food to the police, and cheered along the street for the police who caught the criminals. The encouraged police officers worked even harder.

It didn't take long for the citizens to learn a new trick. When encountering a crime, shouting "In the name of the Crown Prince" would have a good chance of scaring away the criminals.

...

Palais Royal.

The Duke of Orleans looked at the "Paris News" on the table and looked unhappy. The front page of the newspaper was titled "Security in Antony District, the Crown Prince Presides over Police Reform".

Compared with the vague statements of the "Paris News" newspaper under his control, the tabloids next to it are very direct - "The Dauphin rectified the police, and the security of the Saint-Antoine district has improved", "Citizens of the Saint-Antoine district praised the new Police Force", "The Crown Prince was resourceful and solved the dentist's murder case in three minutes"...

The Duke of Orleans felt agitated. He originally wanted to take advantage of the chaotic public order in the Saint-Antoine district to let the newspapers humiliate the crown prince, but unexpectedly it helped to improve his reputation.

This Joseph was able to transform the police force in just over ten days. This method is simply not like that of a thirteen-year-old boy!

Thinking of this, he suddenly frowned. Could it be that the Austrian cousin wanted to clean up Paris officialdom starting from the police station with the help of her son?

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this was the only possibility. After all, it was impossible for the young crown prince to do all this alone.

That would mess up the queen's plan even more. We must not let the royal family cause any trouble!

The Duke of Orleans thought for a while, quickly wrote a letter, summoned the butler and ordered: "Give this letter to Lewebert and tell him that if you want to get this done at all costs, I can consider helping him become the Governor of Normandy. "

"Yes, sir."

...

In a small villa on the east bank of the Seine, Paris Police Chief Guizot glanced sideways at the ajar door and shouted to his mistress who was eavesdropping outside: "Anna, close the door and keep an eye out so that your servants don't get close."

"Oh." The woman reluctantly closed the door and walked away, muttering in a low voice, "Huh, you are treating me like a maid. This is my home..."

Only then did Guizot look again at the short curly-haired man in front of him, took a deep puff of his pipe, and said: "Cimelion, this time the Crown Prince is not going back to the Palace of Versailles for a few days, but will stay at the police station all the time. ."

The short man was the former St. Anthony District Police Commissioner who had been "requested" for medical leave. He immediately said anxiously: "But the Municipal Commissioner said that my officer can be reinstated in two months at most..."

"Who knew it would turn out like this?" Guizot exhaled a puff of smoke, "Now not only you, but also the crown prince is a big trouble to the entire police station."

He stared at Similion and said: "Now there is one thing. If you can do it well, not only can you be reinstated, you can even be promoted."

The short man's eyes flashed with joy: "Sir, just give me your orders!"

"You are most familiar with the St. Anthony area. Who is the most powerful gang there?"

"The Hoth Gang and the Black Sheep Gang." Similion said, "They control more than 80% of the territory in this area, and each has hundreds of subordinates."

Guizot nodded, took out a piece of paper and handed it to him, a look of madness flashed in his eyes: "You go find them, whether it's to dismember corpses, rape, kidnapping, or setting fire, in short, let them mess up the Saint-Antoine district. . The situation is going to get out of control, it's going to be complete chaos!"

"This..." Similion's pupils shrank in shock at those words, and he nodded after a while, "Okay, okay, complete chaos."

He glanced at the paper in his hand again, immediately jumped up from his chair, and said in a voiceless voice: "Thirty, thirty thousand livres!!"

The piece of paper was a money order for 30,000 livres. Nowadays, 20,000 livres can buy a villa in Paris, and 30,000 livres is definitely a huge amount of money that can make any gang go crazy.

"This little money is nothing." Guizot gestured for him to sit down. "You tell those gang members that as long as they do something that can cause panic, they will give you a thousand livres at a time. After a month, who has done better? I can get another twenty thousand livres."

"Yes, sir." Similion's hands trembled slightly due to nervousness.

"Okay, you go ahead and do it." Guizot looked at him deeply again, "Also, if there is any accident, the big people behind me will help you deal with it, but this is all your own idea, and It doesn't matter to me, remember?"

"Yes! Remember, don't worry!"

Guizot stood at the window, looking at Similion's hurried departure, with a sneer on his lips.

He didn't originally plan to play so big, but yesterday Lewebel told him to just go ahead and do it, and he would take care of things if anything happened, so he no longer had any worries.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince, you are enjoying so much happiness in the Palace of Versailles, but you have to come to this muddy water." He gritted his teeth and muttered to himself.

...

Three days later.

St. Anthony District Police Department.

Joseph was reading citizen complaint letters under the shade of a tree—in fact, they were basically praising the police—when Public Security Inspector Magoni suddenly ran over in a hurry, saluted, and said breathlessly:

"Your Highness, something happened again! Two people were killed in a shoe store on Bailiuli Street, and the store was burned down!"

Joseph suddenly frowned. Since the afternoon of the day before yesterday, many vicious cases have occurred in St. Anthony District. Two people died the day before yesterday, three people died yesterday, and two people were seriously injured.

He originally thought it was an accident, but he didn't expect it to happen again today.

"How's the situation?"

"Arden has taken people with him," Magoni said. "The fire has been put out, but the criminal has not been caught yet."

Joseph immediately returned to the office and began to mobilize manpower to respond to the case.

Near dusk, Arden brought back the progress of the White Iris Street case and was reporting to Joseph. Unexpectedly, another police officer brought bad news - the Black Sheep Gang had gone crazy and were killing people everywhere on Missanla Street. , seven or eight passers-by have been slashed and are in urgent need of police support.
