Chapter 88: Yuria and the Strange Doctor (3)
"Fixers, especially those who aren't well-known, often have deep ties to the underworld.
The reason is simple: no place has a higher demand for fixers than the underworld."
A fixer, after all, is essentially a high-performing errand center recognized worldwide.
But ordinary people living routine lives rarely find themselves in situations dire enough to require a fixer’s help.
Think about it: how often would a regular office worker, trudging through similar days like a hamster on a wheel, find themselves in a predicament severe enough to need outside assistance?
And even if a problem arose, most cases would be resolved by the police.
Hiring a fixer, especially at a significant cost, is the sort of thing that might happen once in a lifetime—if at all.
But life in the underworld is a different story.
Here, laws take a backseat to knives and fists, and the world resembles a brutal jungle.
In this environment, fixers who could take on jobs for the right price were like reliable mercenaries.
And since help from the police was out of the question, a fixer was often a lifeline—someone who could turn desperate situations around.
On the other hand, even for fixers, without a reputation, lucrative jobs were hard to come by.
