Chapter 368, reopening shopping malls
“Who told you?” Imiro asked.
"Philippa, she received a blank envelope. It said two things in total. One was that a ship from the Watershed Merchants Group passed by near the route and asked her to rob it. The second was that my reward was increased to 500 gold. "Wu Heng said, and then detailed the content of his conversation with Philippa.
Imiro listened silently.
Then he asked with slightly furrowed brows: "Is there any specific information about the letter?"
“No, Philippa only said that the letter appeared under the pillow as soon as she woke up.”
Imiro thought for a moment, and then said: "You don't have to worry about the bounty. Don't go to sea recently, and be careful on weekdays. It won't be a big problem."
“Yeah.” Wu Heng nodded.
On the island, I’m actually not too worried.
No matter how crazy the pirate is, he will not go to the island to kill him. If he wants to go to sea, he will use the ghost train so that others can't find his trace.
Imiro continued to ask: "How did you tell that little pirate girl about the robbery of the caravan?"
You have a different world, which can be quickly upgraded, and you also have firearms to leapfrog enemies.
Kavina!
Blackstone Town, a member of the fifth team.
"good."
Now it is explained clearly, which saves a lot of trouble later.
…
"Um."
But I also heard some news from Slater, saying that she was not taken seriously in the association where she was assigned, and some were even excluded.
Actually, if you think about it, it was true that at that time, he and Kavina were promoted exceptionally.
My life here is pretty good, and my achievements are a bit hard to talk about compared to yours.
Imiro continued: "Pirates' actions have become more frequent recently. It may be related to the envelope you mentioned. There may be indicators on it in a few days. Pay attention to collecting more intelligence."
At that time, he and Kavina got along very well. He especially remembered that every time he went to the association in the morning, she would prepare a cup of hot tea for him.
“Master, I have a letter from you.” Anderweil said.
“Oh, who’s here?” Wu Heng walked into the room and sat down at the desk.
—Kawina. "
If this is troubled, he is rewarded by the pirate price of heaven, and the association will give an indicator.
When I heard ‘Deacon Slater’ mention this matter, I felt like I was in a dream.
Deputy Deacon Wu Heng:
“There is a rumor circulating among pirates that they have an eye on the pirates. I asked her to get close to the merchant group and then create some problems so that the fleet can escape.” Wu Heng replied.
I asked some people, and they didn’t know much about Treasure Island. They only saw some related introductions in books. I heard that it was an island used by pirates to trade dirty goods, and it was also relatively dangerous. Be more serious and cautious than us, but you should also be careful and put safety first.
I and the pirates are fighting to the death.
There will be no magic traps or poisons placed inside.
Wu Heng also wrote to her when he was in Luntam City, but after two back and forth exchanges, there was no further contact.
I may consider submitting an application to be transferred back to Blackstone Town in the future. Blackstone Town is more familiar to me and more suitable for me, even if I want to be a team member again.
But when I was in the fifth team, I felt more like a feeling of mutual support and dependence among the team members.
Although it is a bit late, congratulations on your becoming Archdeacon.
After opening the letter, you will see neat and delicate fonts.
It has only been a few months since you left Blackstone Town. I didn’t expect you to be promoted from captain to deputy deacon.
Letters transmitted through the association have been inspected.
Wish you all the best in your future and life.
Mainly because Philippa was finally pardoned and came ashore, and still wanted Imiro to speak.
Imiro nodded, "Okay, just be careful and don't cause too many casualties."
Although we didn’t get along with him for too long, he was transferred to Luntam City.
The reason why I talked to Imiro in more detail.
It is also more like the teammates who share the same hardships in the story of the association team.
You take good care of yourself there. I am proud to be a team member with you and grow together.
Return to the room.
Wu Heng picked up the envelope on the table, cut open the sealing wax and poured out the letter.
Wu Heng opened the door and walked out of the study.
“I don’t know, please open it and take a look!”
“Understood!” Wu Heng agreed and said, “Deacon, I’ll go back first.”
Kavina has none of this.
It is actually quite difficult for a young woman to rely on herself.
"Master, who gave you the letter?" Anderweil came over with a cup of tea.
“Kawina!”
"Haven't you heard of your friend, Master?" Andwyer leaned on her shoulder from behind.
“Former team members, congratulate me on becoming the deputy deacon.” Wu Heng said.
You can feel the powerlessness in the other person's emotions from the letter.
Happy that Wu Heng could become the deputy deacon, he also felt helpless about his situation.
“Oh, are you also the captain now?”
“Well, the captain who was promoted together with me seems to be having trouble outside and wants to be transferred back to Blackstone Town.”
Anderweil thought for a moment and said: "If she is a teammate and has a good relationship with her in the past, you can transfer her to Treasure Island. You have a team you trust, and she can also get some care."
Hearing what Anderweil said, Wu Heng raised his eyebrows.
It feels like this is also a solution.
I am relatively close to the third team, but there is no trust or distrust.
It means cooperation in apprehending some wanted criminals.
Kavina wants to be transferred back to Blackstone Town, obviously she doesn’t want to stay where she was.
You can also transfer her to your own side, your own deputy deacon, who has the privilege of recommending team members, and can help her.
At the same time, I also have a team that I can trust.
“Well, that makes sense, Wei’er is smarter.”
Anderweil smiled and said softly: "I learned it from you, Master."
Wu Heng nodded and took out the letter paper from the drawer.
Reply directly to Kavina.
The content is also relatively simple. It tells about the situation of Treasure Island. It is not a small island where pirates trade goods as described in the records. It has now been built into a maritime trade center and is more prosperous than the inland side.
In the second half, she said that she had just arrived on Treasure Island and had no reliable team under her, so she could help him by coming over.
Speak more tactfully so as not to make her feel that you are going out of your way to help her. I checked it twice to make sure there was nothing wrong with my words, then put it directly into the envelope and sealed it with wax.
“Weier, send it to the front desk and mail it out.” Wu Heng handed it to Anderweier.
Anderweil took it and said: "Master, can I write a letter to the people in Luntam City, so as to report that they are safe."
"Okay!" Wu Heng thought for a moment and then said, "I'll also ask Minnie if she wants to write tonight. Doesn't she also have two friends in Luntam City?"
“Okay, I’ll write it down first, and I’ll teach Minnie how to write a letter in the evening.”
"Um."
Sit with Anderweil in the room for a while.
He walked out of the association directly, called a carriage, and headed to Beacon Street.
…
The carriage stopped outside the Nautilus Tavern.
Wu Heng walked in wearing the ‘Transformation Veil’.
Compared to last time, the tavern was obviously more lively.
In broad daylight, there were many guests drinking and chatting in the lobby on the first floor.
There are also a few more store clerks than before.
Millisen is wearing a beige top and a light blue long skirt. She wears it loosely, but it still can't hide her plump figure.
Philippa didn’t inherit any physical advantages.
I saw a familiar figure coming in.
Millicent was stunned for a moment, then explained to the clerk, and walked upstairs with Wu Heng.
After entering the room.
Wu Heng took out the [Soundproof Pot] and placed it directly in the middle of the room.
A faint barrier enveloped the room.
“Sir, what are you doing?” Millicent looked at the soundproof pot.
“Soundproof so that your words are not heard.”
“Oh, your Excellency is very considerate.”
“The tavern business looks good,” Wu Heng said.
Millicent said softly: "A few days ago, the association searched for wanted criminals on the main street. Many people felt annoyed, so they came here. There are more and more people, and the rooms are full."
It seems that the previous search by Sheila Gui and the others has improved the business here.
"Yeah." Wu Heng nodded and continued: "You did a good job with the intelligence last time, and it played a big role in the progress of the entire case."
“This is what I should do.” Millicent’s face lit up and she said politely.
Wu Heng continued: "Last time you said that there was a lack of high-level chefs, I will give you this money to recruit a few good ones."
As he spoke, several large bags full of silver coins were taken out.
The mouth of the bag was opened, and the shining silver coins made Millicent's eyes widen instantly.
Even though she had come into contact with pirates, she was still a country girl who came out of the village. So many silver coins suddenly belonged to her, which made her feel a little uneasy.
“This, this is too much.”
“If you run the tavern well, you will live a better life yourself,” Wu Heng said.
"Oh, okay, thank you, sir." Millicent thanked him and bowed.
The loose skirt droops, revealing exaggerated plumpness.
“Keep it well and don’t let others see it. If you have any greedy thoughts, it will be dangerous for you.”
“Well, I hid under the bed.”
Millicent opened a secret compartment under the bed and put all the silver coins in.
Wu Heng continued: "Let's run the business first. In a few days, I will arrange two skeletons for you to protect your safety."
“No need, sir, people in the tavern are very discerning, and those arrangements can easily attract other people’s attention.”
“Keep it in your room and don’t take it out.”
"Oh fine!"
The two chatted in the room for a while.
Wu Heng asked her to continue monitoring the people in the tavern.
After all, I have put a reward on my head, so some pirates might risk going to the island.
After chatting for a while.
Wu Heng put on the phantom veil again and left the tavern.
Get on the carriage, get off at the center, and return to your residence on foot.
…
After returning to your residence.
Wu Heng and Minnie had lunch together.
Then go up to the fourth floor, open the door, and go to the zombie world.
There are many shelter vehicles parked outside the shopping mall.
A large number of base survivors are cleaning up scrapped cars, setting up checkpoints, and transporting supplies.
Took out the walkie-talkie and called Qi Hancai directly.
I received a reply soon, "Your Majesty, Captain Yang Long from the Military Market is here, here on the second floor."
The military is here?
“I’m going down now.”
Wu Heng went downstairs and was in a conference room-like room on the second floor.
I saw it, Qi Hancai, Li Yahong, Qiangzi and others.
Opposite, several people from the military were sitting, one of whom was Yang Long whom he had met before.
“Captain Yang!” Wu Heng walked in with a smile.
Yang Long stood up, first stretched out his hand to signal a middle-aged man next to him, and said: "This is Wu Jingguang, the city's disaster relief commander, who is fully responsible for the city's disaster relief and rescue work."
Then he introduced Wu Heng and said: "This is the leader of the old factory area, a high-level psychic. He distributes food to various shelters, which has greatly alleviated the food problem of each shelter."
Wu Jingguang raised his head and looked at the other party carefully.
He nodded slightly, then stood up and stretched out his hand, "What is the name of the leader?"
“My surname is Wu.” Wu Heng shook hands with the other party.
“Then we are the same family.” Wu Jingguang said with a smile.
“Martial arts of martial arts.” Wu Heng continued to ask: “Commander Wu, what’s the purpose of coming here this time?”
After Wu Jingguang sat down again, he said straight to the point: "The provincial and district rescue teams have built a stronger evacuation base. The main reason for coming here this time is to ask whether Chief Wu has the idea of joining us."
