Open the door at the end of the passage, which leads to a narrow street behind the building. After the two people walked out, Mark closed the door and fumbled in his pocket.

What he took out was a cigarette made of hay rolled in paper. He bit the cigarette and lit it with the index finger of his right hand.

"Didn't you quit smoking?" Renault said, Mark exhaled purple smoke and shook his head.

"I also have my reasons, so I started smoking again." Mark said, continuing the endless topic: "About the black market goods." Then, he stared into the void.

"Does it mean 'gift'?" Mark said, turning his eyes to Renault. Renault nodded in surprise: "You really understand."

"Maybe it's just a coincidence. People have started buying and selling that thing recently." Mark puffed out smoke again.

"Although I haven't seen it with my own eyes, I heard that it is traded at a very high price on the black market. It is said that that thing can make the person who is injected show special skills. I have not seen it with my own eyes, but it seems to be true, for ordinary people It should be very precious."

Renault made no comment and just motioned to continue.

"It sounds like a lie told by children, but there are also people who have seen people using that thing. It seems to be real, and it is a dream treasure for ordinary people."

"The skill only lasts for a few minutes. I know this too. What I want to know is the source."

Mark was silent for a moment, then continued: "As I said just now, I don't know much about it, but that thing is traded on the black market by some new people."

"Won't the old guys intervene?"

"Of course. But the weird thing is, new people who want to step in always get 'accidents'."

"Accident?"

"Yes, it was an accident. The warehouse exploded and the carriage disappeared during transportation. This kind of thing happened all the time, and no one dared to intervene anymore."

Renault frowned, thinking.

"It's indeed quite suspicious. Well, I also investigated it to that extent and felt that it was a very difficult case, so I withdrew."

"Really?" Reno thought again.

"It's true that since that incident, there seems to have been an increase in a lot of suspicious things going on in this country."

Renault raised his eyes and looked at Mark: "That incident?"

"The Quark incident." Mark said, putting out the cigarette in his hand with the soles of his feet.

"Since that incident, rumors have started to circulate about the actual existence of pacifists, incredible 'gifts' have appeared on the black market, rumors of fighting within the 'peace agency' have emerged, and we are really in trouble."

"'Institution'?"

"Well, I heard that there was a conflict between high-level officials."

Renault nodded.

"By the way, there are also rumors that the 'Revolutionary Army' has started taking action."

When Renault stopped moving, Mark noticed a subtle change in him.

"Is it really related to 'that'?"

Mark's words made Renault look away: "Do you care so much about your former employees?"

"It's not like that." Renault replied in a low voice, full of sadness.

Mark looked at Renault, his own brows furrowed, and then he laughed quickly. "Are you worried about the rumors that the 'Revolutionary Army' is related to the 'Gift'?" Renault nodded silently.

"Before, they were a group of thieves called the 'Revolutionary Army', performing charitable activities on matters not touched by the law. Now they have entered the country's black market with 'gifts' and joined the war. It's so boring. , People who believe in that kind of thing are fools, right?" Mark said with a smile.

"Moreover, they call themselves the 'military,' but they keep solving problems through negotiations."

"...Someone bought that thing." Renault's words made Mark frown in confusion.

"What?"

"That man was originally the leader of the thieves group, but he couldn't lie in front of me. At least he bought it from someone who claimed to be the 'Revolutionary Army'." After Renault finished speaking, Mark fell into deep thought.

"What about your stay?"

"The plan is to stay for ten days, but the possibility of extension is also considered."

Mark closed his mouth again and thought for a while, then nodded: "Understood. I will investigate the situation of the 'Revolutionary Army'."

"Thank you so much." Renault replied with a smile, but Mark frowned: "You're not too worried, are you?"

Because Mark was suddenly concerned about his status, Renault seemed a little embarrassed. Then he realized that what Mark was talking about was "the Quark thing" and lowered his head.

"The dead don't come back."

"I know." Renault replied immediately, and Mark said a little embarrassedly: "Listen, I will only say it once, and I will not say it again in the future. Whether it is a person who has passed away or a successful person, they all think it is a good thing that you are alive. "

Renault showed a surprised expression: "I didn't expect to hear you say such a thing."

"This kind of occasion will never happen again." Mark turned his head and fell into silence as he spoke.

At this time, suddenly the door next to it opened.

"Ah, it is here as expected. Mr. Mark, the guests are here." The woman with the exposed face said after finding Mark.

"I know, I'll be there right away." Mark replied, and the woman closed the door.

"Sorry to disturb you while you are busy." Renault said.

"Don't mind. Ah, that's right." Mark recalled as he fumbled in his arms and took out a business card. "If you go to the black market, you should find out something about 'gifts' from him."

Looking at the business card handed over, Renault tilted his head.

"Have you forgotten? My job is to introduce talents."

"You haven't said anything about your time here, right?"

Mark laughed at Renault's answer, and then continued: "Then try to survive, mate."

"Aren't you the one who wants me to die the most?"

Mark smiled mockingly at Renault: "Of course it's the first place, the first place among those who can die peacefully decades later."

Renault's eyes widened, he smiled happily, and the two walked in the door together and disappeared into the house.
