Chapter 384: The Secret Tunnel of the Sea Eagle Chamber of Commerce
"Tunnel?" Hearing this, Jia Zhengjin became interested, "What kind of tunnel, does the Haiying Chamber of Commerce have more private gold coins?"
"I don't know yet!" The soldier replied, "When we were carrying the items of the chamber of commerce, someone accidentally bumped into something, and then a hole suddenly appeared in the wall. We only dared to check near the hole, and didn't dare to go too deep. Because it's too dark inside, I can't see anything!"
"Won't you go in with a torch?" Jia Zhengjin asked with a frown.
"Master Keen, here is the strange thing!" The soldier said hastily, "We took the torch and went in for a while, and the fire went out inexplicably! And we can still hear a very creepy sound. This thing It's too weird, we dare not act rashly, so we can only report back!"
"What else?" Jia Zhengjin squeezed his chin, "It's interesting!"
"Master Keen, why don't we interrogate Brian, he is the president of the Sea Eagle Chamber of Commerce, so he should know about the tunnel!" Arbas suggested beside him.
"Yeah!" Jia Zhengjin thought it made sense, so he nodded, "Bring me the man!"
"Kean, it sounds scary!" Tina said worriedly from the side, "Why don't we just leave it alone. Anyway, we have all the gold bricks, so let's go back to Sacred Dragon City after a night's sleep?"
"But I'm curious!" Jia Zhengjin turned his head and said, "Why don't you guys go to sleep in the arranged room first. I'll come back after I figure out what's inside the tunnel."
"Don't go?" Tina looked at him nervously, "I'm a little scared."
"It's okay!" Jia Zhengjin stretched out his hand and touched her face lightly, "I can protect myself, and no one can catch me if I run away. I'm not afraid of any danger! In this way, the three of you will be in the room Sleep well, I'll be back later!"
"Then you have to be as careful as possible, and you must leave if there is danger!" Tina held his hand tightly.
"Yeah!" Jia Zhengjin's heart warmed up, "I know, don't worry!"
"Then go early and come back early, we'll wait for you!" Tina stood on tiptoe and kissed him on the face.
"Okay!" Jia Zhengjin reached out and rubbed Tina's hair, "I promise!"
"Wait for you to come back." Palin followed Tina's example and came over to kiss Jia Zhengjin, and then said expressionlessly.
If it wasn't for getting along for a long time, it would be really difficult for Jia Zhengjin to feel her heart.
"Kean, come back quickly!" Christina also kissed him, and then said softly.
"I'm just going to take a look. You're doing it like a thousand miles away. It's too exaggerated!" Jia Zhengjin smiled and let them enter the city lord's mansion to rest. After they all disappeared before his eyes, he turned and looked at Albas, "Go Go call Brian out first and let him tell the truth!"
Arbas immediately took Jia Zhengjin, surrounded by soldiers, to Hailong City Prison.
Brian was locked in a cell alone, with rings of confinement on his hands and feet, and he was sitting in a corner with his head bowed.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, he raised his head, and when he saw Jia Zhengjin and Albas, he immediately got up and went to the door of the cell: "Master Keen! General Tulitan! I am innocent, I did not participate Selling elves! I don’t know those funds, it’s his money from selling elves! You can seal up my chamber of commerce and confiscate all my assets. But you can’t imprison an innocent person! I’m innocent!”
"Bryan, don't act anymore at a time like this!" Jia Zhengjin glanced at him indifferently, "Of course you know that those gold coins were obtained from selling elves, because your father, Duke Felman, started his career with this. All human beings in the entire continent The country, tens of thousands of poor elves who were enslaved, all flowed out through your father! They originally had a free and happy life, but everything was ruined by your father and son! The reason is that he wanted you Have enough capital to marry the princess of the Cangyan Empire! Your own qualifications are not good, so you must use this method to become a young talent with strong financial resources.
Even the Cangyan Empire, one of the four great empires, is hard to defend against the incomparably wealthy Chamber of Commerce! But unfortunately, if you give you a few more years, maybe you can get your wish. But fate is playing tricks on people, so let's accept fate! "
"Master Keen, at least please let me go!" Brian said with his head down, "My father's crimes cannot be imposed on me! As long as you let me go, I promise to leave Sea Dragon City forever and never again Not coming back!"
"I will release you, but not now!" Jia Zhengjin said indifferently, "Don't think that I don't know what you are thinking, don't you just want to go to the Cangyan Empire and ask for their full help? Maybe for this money, the Cangyan Empire I'm happy to launch a war in advance! But I won't let you break the current layout, and when the war is over, I will replay you and leave!"
"Since this is the case, why are you still looking for me?" Brian knew that he would not be released for the time being, and his face immediately turned ugly.
"I want to ask you some questions!" Jia Zhengjin looked at Brian and smiled.
"I'm not interested in answering!" Brian was upset, and immediately went back to the innermost bed in the cell and lay down on it.
"Get up! Master Keen asked a question, you'd better answer honestly!" Arbas frowned and said angrily when he saw his attitude.
Brian didn't move, just ignored.
"Hey!" Jia Zhengjin reached out to stop the angry Arbas, and said with a smile, "Brian, what I want to ask you is, what is in the secret tunnel of the Sea Eagle Chamber of Commerce? What is your intention in preparing that secret tunnel?"
"What secret tunnel?" Brian finally had a reaction, sat up and looked at Jia Zhengjin with doubts.
Jia Zhengjin couldn't see any flaws in his face, and he didn't know whether he really didn't know or pretended not to know. The main reason is that Brian's acting skills and psychological quality are too good to be seen from the surface. And Jia Zhengjin is not a psychological expert, so he can't tell the difference: "It doesn't matter! Whether you say it or not, we still have to find out what is in this secret tunnel! This is a very simple way. You go with us, and you will give us the answer." Let's take the lead! Don't think about running away, the power of my stun gun is not a joke! Don't think about playing tricks, I won't give you any chance!"
"Why should I help you?" Brian snorted coldly, "And I really don't know about the secret tunnel! The headquarters of the Sea Eagle Chamber of Commerce was bought by my mother from the old Earl Uto. None of them moved."
"Earl Uto? Who is he?" Jia Zhengjin turned his head and asked.
"Master Keen," Arbas replied hastily, "Earl Uto was once the military minister of our Sea Dragon City!"
"What about others? Since it's his house, they should know about the tunnel, right?" Jia Zhengjin asked.
"Earl Uto passed away three years ago!"
"What about the people around him?" Jia Zhengjin asked with a frown.
"After the death of Earl Uto, his family also died strangely one after another. No one is left now!"
Hearing what Arbas said, Jia Zhengjin felt even more curious. This matter does not seem to be simple!
