Chapter 1108 Investigation

He Lingchuan hummed: "The third piece of information that the thief must know is where you hide the tribute!"

The timing of the theft is very tight. If the other party doesn't know where the lamp is hidden in advance, how can he succeed at once?

Jin Bo heard the sound and looked at the ring in his hand with a complicated expression.

He Lingchuan looked at him and said, "Does Commander Jin know what I mean?"

"You want to say that there is a traitor in my team?"

As soon as he said this, the two guards behind Jin Bo became angry.

But Jin Bo's face was very calm, and he just waved his hand towards them: "These ten brothers are all carefully selected by me. They have followed me through life and death many times. It is a back-to-back, life-for-life friendship."

He Lingchuan only said:

"Heart is under the kyte."

There are no absolutes. When handling a case, you don’t have to think about it, but I want to confirm it.

Jin Bai also knew that he would say this: "Mr. He is dedicated to his work, and Jin admires it. However, ninety percent of the tributes have been taken away by the royal family of King Hong. The most important thing right now is to confirm this matter?"

Now that we all know who the thief is who stole the lamp, why is there any need to trace the crime? Kimber is pragmatic.

"Does Commander Jin have a plan?"

A barrier was set up here, and Jin Bai then whispered: "Brothers hope to find a way to enter the palace to retrieve it, but I don't think it is appropriate."

"Retrieve" sounds nice, but in fact these Shadowfang Guards plan to steal it back, right?

Jin Bo also had concerns. If he failed to steal and was captured, it would be reasonable but also unreasonable.

After all, this is not the territory of Mou State, but an independent sovereign country on the other side of the sea. If they want to disturb the host, they must be cautious.

Seeing that they were all wearing plain clothes, He Lingchuan knew that they didn't want to show off or attract attention here.

The Xiaoyao Sect paid tribute to the state of Mou, but it was always done secretly and without anyone knowing.

There must be a reason for Mou Guo to do this.

These people have been waiting for a month and probably don't care about waiting a few more days. He Lingchuan said: "I'm here for the first time, so I want to walk around first. Where is the Fuyu Ghost Market?"

He stood up, and Jin Bai stood up immediately: "It's in Julu Port, but it won't open until the sun goes down."

No wonder these Shadowfang Guards still live in Julu Port.

Jin Bo said politely: "The security here is not good and the place is filthy. Shall I send two guards to Mr. He?"

"No need. But - in the first two days after arriving at Julu Port, Commander Jin basically ate in the guest room, right?"

"Yes."

“Where can I buy food?”

"My men bought them all from outside. I bought three meals from three different stores. You can choose at will."

He Lingchuan immediately said: "Okay, I'll ask this brother who buys food to take me on another trip."

Jin Bai immediately called over a Shadow Tooth Guard named Han Kun: "You will lead the way for Mr. He and respond to all requests. Do you understand?"

Han Kun responded yes, and he was indeed respectful to He Lingchuan.

When He Lingchuan's background disappeared into the corridor, Jin Bo sat back on the chair and remained silent for a long time.

His subordinates came over and asked, "Commander, is this guy reliable?"

"You ask me, who am I asking?" Jin Bo didn't even bother to glance at him, "Since he was recommended by Master Wang, just cooperate."

To be honest, he couldn't even think of dealing with this cloud-turner.

The tribute was lost in his hands, and was made into a heart lamp, and was used by the second prince of the Kingdom of Fan... Jin Bai couldn't even imagine how angry Emperor Mou would be.

Even if the whereabouts of the tributes are found out, even if the heart lamp is recovered, the lamp is no longer a lamp, and I'm afraid it won't be able to serve its intended purpose.

After all, he cannot escape the crime of dereliction of duty.

"Everyone, get out." He was a little listless.

The guard at the door came in and said: "Commander, this Mr. He also has a companion, two monkeys."

Jin Bo hummed: "I know."

…

He Lingchuan did not hide the truth from Shadow Fang Guard Han Kun, so he went back to call Dong Rui before going out together.

Unable to walk fifty feet, Han Kun glanced back and said, "There is someone watching us from behind."

"It doesn't matter, just let them watch."

As soon as they got off the pier, they scared away two children who rushed over to touch porcelain. Dong Rui even touched their money bags.

So two gangsters followed, waiting for an opportunity to retaliate.

He behaved so generously that Han Kun ignored them and took them straight to Lupert's stall: "We just arrived at Julu Port and we will buy food here."

This small stall is close to the pier and doesn't even have a storefront. There are just two people working inside, looking like a father and son. Whole-grain steamed buns and pickled vegetables are sold here. If customers have a few spare dollars, they can squat here and eat freshly fried hot vegetables.

Dong Rui felt hungry and asked for a bag on the spot.

When I took a bite, there was a little less oil, but the bun tasted pretty good. However, Dong Rui is not sure what kind of meat the bun filling is.

He Lingchuan struck up a conversation with the stall owner while he was paying, "Lu Bo, how long has your stall been open?"

"Fifteen years." Lu Bo was making noodles. "Wen Guo is not as old as this stall."

There were diners nearby, so no one refuted this.

"That's not easy. I think your business is more prosperous than others."

"It's been getting worse and worse in the past few years!" Lupert shook his head. "There are fewer boat passengers at the port, and they are stingy. You don't even have to spend a few bucks to eat here."

Dong Rui interjected: "Then why don't you leave? If you move the tree, you will die, but if you move the people, you will live."

Rubeus seemed stunned and glanced behind them: "We can't leave, we can't leave!"

"Why?"

Rube didn't say much more and just asked them what else they wanted to eat.

It was almost done, He Lingchuan said to Han Kun: "Okay, let's go to the next location."

The port area of ​​Julu Port is not big. After more than two quarters of an hour, Han Kun took him to visit three small restaurants and told him: "At that time, I chose these three places to buy food on impulse."

So there was no need to worry about someone secretly planting drugs.

He Lingchuan praised him: "You are very careful."

"This is the request of Commander Jin."

He Lingchuan asked him: "What punishment will you receive on this trip back?"

If the tribute is lost, the treasure protection team will be unlucky.

Han Kun pursed his lips: "I don't know."

"I heard that the tribute was lost once a few decades ago." He Lingchuan mentioned the past, "Did Mou Ting punish you at that time?"

"That time, the tribute was recovered afterwards." Han Kun's mood became even heavier after saying this.

After walking around like this, He Lingchuan sent him back to the Old Qian's Inn, and he and Dong Rui continued to wander around the dock.

Dong Rui ate a bun as a snack: "I see this team of Shadow Fang Guards are depressed and frustrated, it's not easy for them to force themselves to deal with you."

"They will be in big trouble when they go back, of course they have lost their spirits." He Lingchuan claimed to eat everything, but he still couldn't eat this bun.

"Just like what the surnamed Jin said, the whereabouts of the Mingdengzhan have been found, why do you still want to find out the method of committing the crime? The king's master just asked you to find the tribute, and the surnamed Jin has found it, so your mission is over, why bother?"
