Chapter 61 Follow-up of Qihuang Island (5/10)

The afternoon purchase was not as smooth as expected.

Whether it is the large-caliber pistols, special bullets needed by Xu Zhuo, or the iron golem materials needed by Fu Ju, it is not so easy to buy.

Especially the materials and tools for making sand iron golems are still difficult to buy even if they ignore a considerable number of specialties for sand blowing islands. Fortunately, Lu Jing deliberately covered up when he landed on the island, and was not afraid that the Nightmare Ghost Pirates would catch up again.

Therefore, Lu Jing finally asked Fu Ju to make a list, and the three of them went to search separately and barely found a group of people.

In the evening, the three of them met at an inn on Qingle Island, and after dinner, they gathered in Lu Jing's room.

"Considering that you have never used a gun before, the accuracy of medium and long range shooting is extremely poor, and the bullet loading is not familiar with bullet loading, so I bought you a revolver, which is simple to operate, so don't worry about dud bullets. The power is strong enough at close range, and the bullet capacity is a little less... Anyway, if you are really close, you may not be able to fire a few shots, so in addition to normal bullets, I bought you ten smoke bombs, which are specifically used to delay time. If you think the situation is wrong, you can directly load the smoke bombs into the bullet nest, which is very convenient."

Taking advantage of his spare time before resting, Xu Zhuo taught Fu Ju. There were two rows of bullets on the table and several basic installation flow charts of the sand iron doll made by Fu Jugang compared with the materials he bought.

Lu Jing sat cross-legged on the bamboo slum near the window and used a dial conch to contact Dong Qingyue on Qihuang Island.

Yesterday, before Wang Yuyan left, he left the contact information of Dong Qingyue's ship.

At this time, it had been a whole day and a half since they raided Qihuang Island, and there should be a preliminary result no matter what.

"The cadres of the Nightmare Ghost Pirates failed to catch them. They probably ran away after getting the news that we rushed to Qihuang Island... The Shangguan family still wanted to struggle to death. Not to mention that the guards in the doll factory were collectively "missed", even the body of the housekeeper you mentioned was discovered this morning. The government of Qihuang Island didn't know how much benefits they had taken. It would be fine if they didn't cooperate with our actions, but they actually wanted us to withdraw and go through the official law process of Shuming to review them... The logs you brought were very critical. We used this as a basis to forcefully intervene, and they didn't even have a decent battle, so they surrendered."

To some extent, the development of the matter was the same as Lu Jing thought. In order to cover up his crimes, the Shangguan family must have taken ruthless measures yesterday and all parties operated. If he had only notified the Qihuangdao government before, he might have been slaughtered in the prison now.

The only drawback is that the worm escaping man escaped. Perhaps because he was worried that his move would be equivalent to confirming the charge of the Guan family. Now he is either hiding somewhere in Qihuang Island to wait for an opportunity, or he has left Qihuang Island to continue tracking them.

"What about Fu Jiangxin's news?"

Lu Jingke did not forget this most critical thing.

"Whether it is the Chengfeng Doll Factory or their ancestral home, we have conducted searches. Some of the missing civilians have found. Fu Jiangxin is still missing. The Shangguan family is also interrogating and has used some special means... The Shangguan family knows the existence of this person and admits that they kidnapped him in February this year. However, when asked where this person is now, everyone in the Shangguan family just shook their heads."

The special means that Dong Qingyue mentioned were obviously the interrogation method designed with extraordinary abilities within the Alliance Navy. Even so, there was no vague result. In Lu Jing's view, there was only one possibility. The Nightmare Ghost Pirates did not regard the Shangguan family as a real partner, but were more of a "production workshop".

So often, the Shangguan family is just the executor of the order rather than the participant.

It is precisely because of this that when I realized that the workshop was about to be investigated, the Nightmare Ghost Pirates decisively gave up on it.

"I know, actually... forget it, now is not the time. If there is any other discovery later, I will contact you again."

Lu Jing wanted to bring up information about the Shada Island again, but when he spoke, he heard the noise from Dong Qingyue, so he pressed the conversation back and prepared to end the call.

"Wait, give me an account that can send money to me or Shuoming Money House."

"There is still money to get it?"

This was something Lu Jing didn't expect.

“How many are there?”

"Of course, the information and evidence you provide help the Alliance Navy destroy a factory that conducts human puppet experiments, destroying part of the conspiracy of the Nightmare Pirates. As a reward, you will receive 6 gold leaves and a reward order issued by the Alliance Navy, which will allow your ship to get discounts in most ports."

"I will accept the money, and I won't need the reward order. After all, I just provided some information, and I am really sorry."

Report his account at Shuoming Money House to the other party. As for the commendation order, Lu Jing would never ask for it no matter what.

Remuneration is one thing, but in Lu Jing's view, this reward order is equivalent to putting himself in the camp of the Alliance Navy. If you really want to take it to the major ports, it will be fine!

He didn't want to be involved in anything he did in the future with the Alliance Navy for no reason, let alone he could not guarantee that he would not do anything "weird" that might violate the Alliance Navy's regulations in the future.

Dong Qingyue did not get involved in the commendation order. She knew more than anyone else about the commendation order.

Hang up the dial conch, Lu Jing looked at the two people next to him who had stopped practicing: "Now it is certain that Fu Jiangxin is not in Qihuang Island. Our guess is correct. There is a high possibility that he will be transferred to the Chesand Island. You can go and rest first. We will set off tomorrow... tentatively scheduled for tomorrow."

According to the original plan, it was time to leave tomorrow, but what happened in the morning kept wandering in Lu Jing's mind.

Xu Zhuo and Fu Ju saw Lu Jing's hesitation, packed up their things and left the room. The former planned to buy the firearms they just bought under maintenance, while the latter had some design drawings to be drawn.

Lu Jing leaned against the windowsill, the streets outside were brightly lit, and various musical instruments played music from all directions.

They are mixed together to form a symphony that is not neat.

Somehow, Lu Jing always felt that these music was like duckweed on the water surface, spreading densely and covering things under the water surface. He felt something deeper hidden in it.

Until some moment, some inappropriate tones appear in it.

Wow~hiss~

These notes that seemed to come from another dimension broke into this unbeautiful symphony in an irresistible way, smashing them unreasonably, and glued together the broken tunes in a way that Lu Jing could not understand, pieced together to form a similar tune.

Lu Jing has heard of it.

Just in the conch store this morning...
Chapter completed!
