"Mr. Kane, can you tell me how you and my father met?" Jacques found the conversation to talk about.

The old cowboy Kane leaned back in his chair, his gaze moving upward, and he fell into memory: "Paul and I are both members of the Pioneer Regiment, you know, the Pioneer Regiment that was later incorporated into the Eleventh Legion.

At that time, I was still the captain of the Pioneer Regiment's Medis detachment, and Paul was one of my most effective team leaders, smart, skilled, and effective.

What surprised me the most was that he was able to step into the Grandmaster at a young age, and I, an old man, were still struggling at the peak of the Cultivators, if he hadn't left the Pioneer Regiment, he would have been valued by Captain Grant after the reorganization, and he might have become a Thousand Commanders by now. ”

Jacques was particularly interested in Kane's words, knowing that his father rarely mentioned them to him, so he continued to ask, "Then you must have seen my mother?"

Kane nodded and said, "Of course I've seen the Flower of Media, your mother's tavern has become the canteen of our pioneer group. ”

The first time Jacques heard that his mother had opened a tavern, he thought of the name of his father's bar: "That tavern can't be called 'The Flower of the Heart', right?"

"That's right, that's the name, everyone called Elena 'the Flower of the Medis' back then, and that's why it's the tavern's name. Every night at ten o'clock, Yelena would come on stage to sing to everyone, and at that time it was difficult to find a place to stand in the tavern, and Paul was really lucky. ”

Jacques thought of Kane's previous words and asked, "Mr. Kane, you said that I was not born when I last saw my father, but my father said that I was born in Medis." ”

"We were out on a mission, not in Medis, Paul was a deserter," Kane said. It's not right to say that deserters, the pioneer regiment is different from the army, it is supposed to come when you want to come, and leave when you want.

I thought he was also sympathetic to the aborigines before leaving, but then I heard that a young man came to Paul that day, and the two talked all night, and the next day Paul said goodbye. In a few months, I returned to Medis, and I heard that your parents had both been promoted to Grandmasters, and they were fighting other Grandmasters in the sky above Medis, which was wonderful.

I don't know much about the situation at the time, so you'd better ask your father. ”

Jacques thought to himself, I guess this is the real situation, as for the young man who came to find his father, it is most likely Mr. Twenty-Three. As for the opponents in the fight, it should be the "organization" sent to arrest them.

"Mr. Kane, if you have time for the past three days, I will take you to my father, who also runs a bar, called 'The Flower of the Heart'. By the way, can you tell me about who we need to watch out for?"

Kane rubbed the wide-brimmed hat in his hand, turned his fingers around the six-pointed star emblem a few times, and said, "Probably everyone, both official and underground forces may trouble me."

Originally, I couldn't trust anyone, but an old friend told me that little Paul could protect me in Yorktown, so I asked him to go to your father, but I didn't expect that it was you who would protect me.

Well, when I'm done, we'll go to his bar, and I'll feel safer with a grandmaster by my side. I haven't seen him in years. ”

The carriage traveled for half an hour in the South End of York City to reach its destination, Bay of Pigs, one of the many small ports on the Leichardt River.

After getting out of the car, Kane paid the driver an extra five hundred livres to wait where he was, and then hurried with Jacques and Lily into the warehouse area of Bay of Pigs.

"He'll probably run away and earn five hundred livres for nothing. Jacques said.

"I'm still willing to gamble on the coachman's character, because there are very few cabs passing by in this area," Kane said. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he turned the corner and saw two black steam cars parked on the side of the road, this livery immediately reminded Jacques of the government cars that he often saw in Casstilla, how could they be here? Aren't the steam cars of the New World rare? It is very likely that they are the special cars of the big men of the town hall!

Kane ignored the two steam cars and walked straight to the end of the alley, where there was a row of warehouse entrance gates and guard boxes.

Before he could get close to the gate, three men in uniform black suits and top hats walked out of the sentry box, and the first one saw Kane's face clearly, and immediately put his legs together and straightened his body, and raised his right hand to salute.

Kane interrupted him in time: "Okay, I'm no longer in the Legion, it's not appropriate to salute." Take me to him. I know you, the sixth officer corps, your name is ...... Lewis!"

"The chief instructor still remembers me! Lewis Lamar, a graduate of the sixth officer corps, reports to you!"

"Then please take us to him. ”

"Uh...... Chief Instructor ...... These two ...... Your entourage isn't too convenient......"

"Oh, they're my old friend's children, and I'm going to have to trouble them to take care of them these two days, so let's go see him together. ”

"That's fine, but their weapons ......"

Jacques and Lily had no choice but to untie their swords and hand them over to the guards at the sentry box, along with their daggers.

Then, led by Lewis, he walked into one of the rows of warehouses, and bypassed the rows of standard containers, and in the dim light of the hand-held pony lamp, Jacques saw two chairs in the open space between the boxes, one of which was occupied by a man.

He looked younger than Kane, in his forties, with short blond hair, a long face, a square chin, and a muscular build, and an ordinary black suit that seemed to burst open by him.

When the man saw Kane coming, he stood up and stepped forward to greet him, and said, "Brother Kane, it's been three years, I heard that you are going back to the imperial capital to restore your life, and I am here to see you off." If not...... Hey, if it weren't for those dirty things, I would also like to bring you the scenery and send it on the boat. ”

Kane shook the man's hand and said, "Thank you for arranging this way, and for helping me arrange a stand-in, otherwise I wouldn't have made it to York City." ”

The man pulled Kane to sit down and said, "We have to make persistent efforts in the second half of the trip, and the second prince is still waiting for ......."

Halfway through his words, the man looked at Jacques and Lily behind Kane, "These two are your students?"

Kane said, "Oh, didn't you let Blackflame Paul protect me? I didn't expect that lazy guy to abandon the mission to his son." Come, Jacques, this is the captain of the Eleventh Legion, Mr. Grant. ”

"Hello, Mr. Grant. ”

Captain Grant said: "It seems that Paul guy can't teach a lesson, such an important matter is not personally involved, if something goes wrong, I will kick him out of the New World, just like back then." ”

Kane smiled: "Brother Gretel, I heard that more than ten of you had nothing to do with them back then, and they left the New World by themselves." ”

"The three of them! And the twenty-three! Haha, don't mention it, let's get down to business. ”

Lewis hurried up and said to Jacques and Lily, "Let's wait a minute." He led them to the cargo box more than 20 meters away and waited.

Grant whispered, "Brother Kane, my people have been searching Tavarai for a year, and there is still no news of what you lost. If there is a characteristic object, if it is circulated, some people will definitely have an impression, but so far there is no news at all, so there are only two possibilities.

The first possibility, and the most difficult to recover, is that the privateer that robbed the passenger ship was accidentally sunk after the robbery. In such a vast sea, there is no way to find the location of the shipwreck. My men infiltrated the Mirror Regiment and inquired carefully, and two pirate ships were missing during that time, and perhaps the pirate ship that robbed the merchant ship was one of them.

The second possibility, which is actually more difficult to recover, may be that all three of your men's stolen things have gone into the treasure trove on Skull Island. In this case, they will either have to wait for someone to take them out of the treasure vault and recirculate them in the market, or they will have to sneak into the treasure trove to find them. ”

Kane was very disappointed with the outcome of the matter, but he also knew that Grant was able to help him to this extent, and it was also for the sake of working together for many years, so he said: "Brother Grant, I am very grateful for the fact that you can help me find out this news, but I have to trouble your subordinates to continue to pay attention to the jewelry and antique market in Tavaré, people who don't know will treat those three things as ordinary antiquities, and if one is not careful, it may cause disasters like the 'Tavaré tragedy' back then." ”

Kane felt that the topic was a little heavy, so he said: "Brother Grant, what is the new news about the state banquet a year ago? In the past few years, I have been away from the imperial capital, and the newspapers I occasionally get are all old news from three or two months ago, if there is anything new, you can tell me about it, and when I return to the imperial capital to restore the second prince's life, I will have a good preparation." ”

Captain Grant said, "Hahaha, speaking of which, Brother Kane, I'm going to congratulate you!"

When you resigned from me as the chief instructor and returned to the imperial capital as a teacher, I thought you were cutting off your future.

Unexpectedly, within a few years, you became the commissioner of the second prince and the general manager of the archaeological work in the New World.

Do you know who the biggest winner of this state banquet is?

His Royal Highness the Second Prince!

If you go back this time, you will definitely be appointed to an important position by him!"

Kane was intrigued and asked, "Brother, where did this biggest winner start?"

Grant said: "The battle for storage positions will be settled in about two years!"

Before this state banquet, His Majesty the Emperor appointed the second prince to train the new army, and last year the commanders of the second and third armies were replaced by the people of the second prince, so that the second prince not only mastered the army in the northern regions, but also embedded the nail of the new army in the Gyeonggi region.

Although the queen is from the Duchy of Saxony, the eighth and ninth legions of Saxony are not under the command of the eldest prince, and from the perspective of influence on the army, the second prince has been completely victorious.

In the future, the second prince will inherit the throne, as long as he marries a woman from the top nobility of the Duchy of Saxony as the queen according to tradition, the Duke of Saxony will not support the eldest prince who has bent his relatives.

I've even heard that the Duke of Saxony has brought a few ladies of social age to the state banquet this time, and maybe you can catch the engagement ceremony of the second prince when you go back. ”

The old men were very interested, and after half an hour, they set up a table in the warehouse and prepared to eat!
