Chapter 696

Reggio, which is close to the coastline, has a north-south trend, with sea in the West and rolling hills in the East.

To the east of Reggio, there is a funeral home near a large cemetery in the mountains more than ten kilometers away from the city center.

This is also an industry under the glorious society.

Funeral industry is one of the traditional pillar industries of Mafia all over the world. It is not only profitable, but also easy to launder money. Steve Ross, the former chairman of Time Warner, who has died, started his business by operating a funeral home in New York.

Steve Roth's Mafia background is well known, but the landing is relatively successful, which can be regarded as a thorough clean-up.

At 2:50 a.m., when the whole city was in chaos due to several simultaneous accidents, Antonio Danieli was secretly escorted to the remote funeral home on the outskirts of the city by two of the four members, while the other two were still at his residence.

The empty funeral home was silent.

When Antonio Danieli got out of the car, he found that his other two brothers, Paul Danieli and Giovanni Danieli, arrived almost at the same time, as well as his two younger brothers, mark Onorato and frank Paoli, who had accompanied him to the United States.

Sensing that the Stefano family had been completely destroyed, the five obediently went to the door of a room in the funeral home under the guidance of the escorts. After arriving here, the escorts did not follow up, but only signaled themselves to enter.

Antonio Danieli thought that he would finally see some one behind the scenes who manipulated all this. After entering the door, the five stood together on the spot.

This is the crematorium in the funeral home.

Most Italians still maintain the custom of burial after their death, but there is no lack of cremation demand.

This naturally cold room is nothing. The key is that there are a lot of people in the room at this time, a few living people in coma with hoods, and more dead people in body bags.

Seeing the situation in front of them, the five people had the idea of escaping almost at the same time.

However, think about those guys who stay outside. They understand that turning around and leaving is tantamount to choosing death, not only for themselves, but also for their families.

Antonio Danieli first looked away from all the people in the room and looked at the simple iron square table not far away. On the table were five silencing pistols, a thick file bag, and a speaker like thing.

The atmosphere was silent for a moment, and a voice came from the speaker: "well, everyone is here."

The voice came from a middle-aged man.

Italian is not fluent, but it's standard.

After a little pause, the other party continued: "you are very lucky. The boss originally planned to send you to heaven together. He changed his mind temporarily and you can live. And as long as you're not too useless, you're going to live well. "

This voice is not slow, finish saying pause a moment again, seem to leave digestion time for five people again.

Hearing some assurance, the nervous Antonio five really relaxed.

Then, the voice continued: "there are five pistols on the table, and there are eleven living people here. I don't think I need to remind you too much. After dealing with these things, you can take the file bag on the table with a list of people who can help Mr. Antonio Danieli take over the Stefano family. As for the future, I don't think I need to remind you too much. However, you can rest assured that the boss has no interest in your business. No matter how much you earn in the future, it will be your own. The only thing you need to do is do what you should do when the boss needs it. "

After these words, there was another pause. It seemed that you could see Antonio's five people standing still. The voice came out again, as if to remind: "I suggest you start work immediately. The cremator has been turned on. Now it's two hours before daybreak. After daybreak, if you haven't finished your work, someone will come in and finish it for you."

After the last few words, there was no sound coming out of the speaker.

A few minutes later, I noticed that the four brothers were looking at me. Antonio Danieli first made up his mind, went to the square table, picked up a pistol and went to the living people.

When a new day comes, some news quickly spreads in Reggio and spreads to the whole underground world of Italy.

Overnight, the Stefano family, who had been in Reggio for many years, disappeared.

The huge family of Stefano's six brothers, a total of 27 people, big and small, men and women, regardless of whether they are in Reggio or not, even including the two children of Stefano's family who studied in Switzerland, are all missing. Along with the disappearance of many bodyguards and servants around the Stefano family that night.

After inspecting the scene of the incident, the remaining two members of the South Reggio faction of the glorious society confirmed for the first time that the incident could not have been committed by the authorities.

The authorities have rules.

However, the three northern Reggio families that had been the focus of suspicion were soon excluded.According to the feedback from people around the scene, the whole thing basically happened within half an hour between 2:00 and 2:30 in the morning last night. The actors were crisp and didn't give other people any time to react.

Especially in the mansion of Horace Stefano, the godfather of the Stefano family, there was a lot of activity, not only gunfight and explosion, but also the power and communication in the surrounding blocks were cut off. Then, as if in an instant, everything was calm again. There was only a mansion with a lot of blood left but no one left.

It is impossible for the three northern reggios to be so strong and professional.

If the three had the strength to make a deep-rooted Mafia family disappear completely in just half an hour, they would have been able to unify Calabria and even become the kings of Italy's underground world.

So.

Here comes the problem.

What happened?

Moreover, the invisible enemy is the most terrible.

Now that someone can make the Stefano family disappear overnight, the rest of Reggio may soon follow suit.

As a result, the underground world of Calabria is in a state of panic.

In the next few days, the core of the glorious society, which usually only forces others to hide all over the world, sent their families to places where they thought they were safe, even broke the rule of not cooperating with the police, trying to find some clues through official channels.

The result is still nothing.

In fact, it's not nothing.

The night before it happened, Giorgio Stefano, the eldest of the Stefano family, noticed that someone might be monitoring and tracking the movement of the glorious society, and worked out a counter strategy with the other two.

After re investigation, I noticed that the "strangers" who appeared in Reggio a few days ago were obviously more than usual. Some people rented a large number of apartments in Reggio in a short time. Following this clue, we found hundreds of vacant rental houses in just three days, covering the whole city of Reggio, even Messina, which belongs to Sicilian Mafia territory on the other side of the Strait.

Then the Sicilian Mafia began to fly.

It's impossible to hide such a big thing.

Soon, the Italian media got involved.

If we expose the inside story of the Mafia on weekdays, we will receive the threat of breaking our hands and feet at least. This time, no "party" will jump out to trouble them, and the glory of chaos will not have time to take care of it.

As a result, the explosive news that all the mafia families in southern Italy disappeared overnight appeared in many important pages of newspapers and became the most popular topic of discussion among the Italian people recently. The news even spread overseas.

The Italian government can't avoid such hot news.

At the beginning of this year, taking advantage of the political turmoil in Italy in recent years, Italian tycoon Silvio Berlusconi, who was elected prime minister as a political plain man, said in an interview with the media that the authorities would investigate the matter if necessary.

Italy, like Germany, belongs to the prime minister system.

The president is only a symbol, and the prime minister is in charge of the government.

Berlusconi rose to the top of Italy's power as a "white man" and immediately became a target for everyone after he came to power. Because of various scandals and a series of investigations by the Italian government, the post of prime minister has been in danger.

If this quite sensational incident had been made bigger, it would have helped him to share a large part of the pressure of public opinion. However, I don't know why, Mr. prime minister, who had vowed the day before and even called a special meeting of the head of the judicial department, died down the next day, as if something had never happened.

Not only that, when some high-level authorities in Calabria or Rome publicly expressed their wish to investigate the matter, they were quickly attacked by the media.

The assassination of judge Giovanni Falco two years ago is still fresh in my mind.

So many Italian people have been oppressed by the Mafia, but no one has come out. Now, only some mafia have died, and the officials want to fight. Does it mean that the interests of the Mafia are even higher than the Italian people? Who are your spokesmen?

Italy is also a typical Western electoral system. No one does not care about the votes.

When such a big hat comes down, no one dares to take it.

Not only that, the honor society, which was far less famous than the Mafia in Sicily and Campania, has also spread rapidly.

The traditional TV newspapers dare not dig deep into the dark materials of the glorious society, but the newly rising Internet has no such scruples.

Glory will soon appear on the Internet.

Thousands of murders triggered by the recent civil war of the glorious society have led to the death of a large number of innocent people, including many women and children; the drug trafficking network of the glorious society transports dozens of tons of various types of drugs to the whole Italy and even Europe every year, resulting in the degeneration of countless teenagers, the separation of their happy families and the destruction of their families; all businesses in the territory of the glorious society are destroyed They have to pay protection fees on a regular basis, and they are even forced to launder money for glory society, which makes their lives miserable. Glory society controls human trafficking and smuggling networks, which leads to the degradation of thousands of women every year Each of these charges has a real case to look into.With the constant spread of information on the Internet, the glory club, once in the shadow of "our cause" and "Kamola", suddenly becomes infamous.

Now, no one dares to stand out for glory.

The Italian authorities, after a completely formalized "official investigation", directly identified the whole incident as a Mafia vendetta. The subtext is that this is an internal affair of the Mafia and the official will not intervene. Even in order to cope with the pressure of public opinion, a large number of additional police forces were deployed to the Calabria region, and a small-scale anti Mafia operation was launched in early September in the city of GIO, the main base of the glorious society.

The public is always forgetful.

When September comes, the attention of Italian media will soon turn to the intensified internal struggle of the authorities again. In order to get rid of litigation and scandal, Berlusconi is likely to resign in the near future.

It is obvious that Silvio Berlusconi will become another short-lived Prime Minister of the Italian government in the last decade. Since the launch of the "clean hands movement" two years ago, two old political parties in Italy have been directly dissolved under the influence of scandals, and two consecutive prime ministers have been removed from the stage. Berlusconi is the third prime minister in the past two years.

As a political plain person, Berlusconi has no black information in politics, but he is a businessman.

Italy also has a tradition that government and business do not separate. It is impossible for businessmen to do something and not have a good relationship with the government. Until many years later, some media listed the global national integrity index, which is equivalent to the green of northern Europe. Italy is still dazzling scarlet.

Due to the continuous layout in Italy over the years, melisandro also encountered some investigations on the clean hands movement which started two years ago.

Fortunately, at the critical moment, Berlusconi, who has a good relationship with the westero system, suddenly came to power. This is a move that Simon quietly played when the westero system just entered Italy in the late 1980s. Berlusconi's media company has had a lot of cooperation with danielis entertainment over the years. Last year, the two sides also jointly invested and held the famous Christie's auction house.

Berlusconi's sudden turn in the glorious meeting is naturally due to this reason. Otherwise, the other side will certainly not miss this opportunity to shift the direction of public opinion.

After the night of August 23, Simon was called back to North America by Jennifer.

The female assistant said she needed to take a vacation and forced Simon to stay at home as a father for half a month. She and Janet flew to Australia and Africa, and launched a medical charity project in Rwanda to help African children fight against parasites.

It was not until September 9, when this year's Venice Film Festival opened and the two women returned to North America, that Simon was able to get away and return to Europe.

Naturally understand women's mind.

Simon is also aware of some changes in his mentality. With the rising of wealth and status, Simon's heart begins to become cold again.

It's too high to be cold.

Jennifer had tried to pull Simon to church, but failed to go any further.

This time, the two women hope to soften his change through their children.

The effect is actually good.

For half a month in a row, he took care of three kids connected with his own blood in the domay point manor. Simon's fierce anger, which began to accumulate when the Sophia family received the bullet at the end of July, was unconsciously dispelled.

However, things have to have a beginning and an end.

Since it's a shock, it's certainly not enough to just do things. It's necessary to let people know what happened.
