Chen Ye knew the difficulty of the hidden side quest, whether it was the "Ghost General" or the "Red Ghost King", they were far beyond the limit that Chen Ye could face at that time, if it weren't for the trick, he wouldn't have had a chance to complete the task at all, but after experiencing a transformation of the reincarnation world, Chen Ye didn't feel that he didn't have the strength to fight, and after hesitating again and again, he still took the task.

Chen Ye did not return to No. 37 Fili Street, but came to the southwest suburbs, Zhou Dong's base camp, this place is free from the gray area between the Arbitration Garrison Hall and the Black Neill forces, Zhou Dong established a secret camp here very early, in an underground tunnel, he cleared a large open space, although the sewage outside is cross-flowing, rats and cockroaches crawling everywhere, but the open space is brightly lit, ventilation and cleanliness are good.

The battle between Chen Ye and Katrin was obviously delayed for a long time, and when he returned here, 37 of the 50 people who followed him had already returned here, and the rest naturally didn't need to think about it, it was impossible to have no casualties in that kind of melee.

Zhou Dong even gave him an explanation of this secret place, obviously taking him as the core person, as soon as Chen Ye entered the door, he saw Zhou Dong being wrapped in bandages, and he had another wound on his face, but his expression was very excited, and when he saw Chen Ye, he said: "I have heard, you really killed him!" Ha ha! Black Neil only has such an only son, and he has been counting on him to succeed him, and now he is dying tragically, and Black Neil has no successor, I don't think anyone would dare to fight with me...... Brother, what are you doing with a foreign girl on your back? ”

"Borrow your place for a use, this girl is not an ordinary person, I almost planted it in her hands!" Chen Ye put Katrin on the ground and said that he had time to breathe a sigh of relief.

Zhou Dong looked at the injuries on Chen Ye's body, large and small, more than a dozen, if ordinary people were afraid that they would have died a long time ago, only a monster with an amazing physique like Chen Ye could still act as usual, so Zhou Dong seemed to be more determined in his thoughts.

"Brother, don't worry! If people put me here, there will be no hair less, and I will take good care of my younger siblings! Zhou Dong glanced at Katrin, and only felt that this long-legged woman with wavy red hair was very beautiful, and had a special temperament, this kind of ability and heroism was not something that ordinary women could have, but he didn't ask much, his relationship with Chen Ye was still in a very rusty and hard-working stage, and it was not good to ask more.

Chen Ye wiped his body with hot water and asked, "What are you going to do next?" Is it a direct showdown with Black Neil? ”

"What are your plans?" Zhou Dong narrowed his eyes and asked, he trusted Chen Ye's ability more and more, and with a few random ideas, he let himself change from passive to active, and now that Hei Neer's forces are entangled with the red-clothed police, it is a good opportunity for him to raise his arms.

"I advise you to stay honest, the foreigners you kidnapped are good, you show them these things......" Chen Ye took out a few bloodstained marks from his trouser pocket, which were all marks he saw from the foreigner captain he killed, and he believed that they must know each other.

"You now have more than 100 merchant ships in the South Wharf, but you don't really own them, only these foreigners can really drive these ships, you and I can't do it, especially the steamboats, we don't know anything." Chen Ye sighed, now that he remembered that he really should spend some killing points and become a "scientific and technological staff of Cotoso", so that driving a steamship should not be a problem.

Zhou Dong didn't really treat those ships as his own before, he just wanted to recruit sailors and coolies, expand his voice in the Black Nier forces, and continue to live in Lunt City, but Chen Ye's appearance ignited a huge fire in his heart, and he now wanted to have a more powerful armed force, Wen Yan just nodded, and listened to Chen Ye continue.

"Those foreigners are quite powerful in Lunt City, and may even have knighthoods, just threaten to be afraid that you can't give in, so just pretend to be a pirate, show these things in front of them, they will definitely think that you killed those disobedient captains, and then promise heavy profits, presumably someone will be obedient." Chen Ye said.

"To really solve the livelihood problem of more than a thousand people, it is useless for you to negotiate with the Security Department, you can only relieve the suffering for a while, but if you want to control Lente City, it is also impossible, unless Black Neil now puts down all his obsessions and stands with you, he has been the king and hegemon in the underground forces of Lente City for decades, do you think he will obey you if there is no successor? It's impossible, he will only sell his soul and stand with the security department to eradicate you, so that he can exchange for more than ten years of peaceful life, and maybe he can have another one if he is healthy. After Chen Ye changed into a blazer, he put the most ruthless truth in front of Zhou Dong.

Zhou Dong was immediately stupid, he was in ecstasy for a while, he didn't think about the worst result, but after being broken by Chen Ye, he realized that it was right, this was probably Hei Neer's last choice, and he couldn't help asking: "Then what should I do?" ”

"Drive the ship to the sea immediately, now the Lamini Chamber of Commerce has suffered a great change, most of the steam factories in Lunt City are suspended, you take people directly from the steam factory warehouse near the South Wharf to rob, kidnap these foreign captains on the ship, let them sail out to sea, otherwise they will be killed, as long as you go out of the sea, you are safe, the nearby cities have not traded with the Lamini Chamber of Commerce for many days, the shortage of sea salt is inevitable, you can take the opportunity to raise the price to smuggle sea salt, and treat your brothers and these foreigners well, but remember not to go far, come back within 2 days." , things will turn around. Chen Ye gave such a suggestion.

Zhou Dong thought for a while, his ruthless eyes turned around his subordinates and said, "It's done!" Even if you really do pirate, you are better than the rats in the local ditch here! If any of you are afraid of death and don't want to go, stand up for me! ”

No one will stand up stupidly, follow Zhou Dong for a long time, who doesn't know his ruthless character, even if he has a family in Lunt City, he can only bow his head at this time, really stand up, and he will become a corpse in the next second, what matches his ruthless personality is the huge power in his tall body, Chen Ye visually measured that Zhou Dong's combat power is about the same as that of the four family servants, this is already a very powerful character.

"Brother, do you want to go to sea with me?" Zhou Dong immediately entered the role, and he really regarded himself as a pirate.

Chen Ye shook his head and said: "If I leave, you will really be a rootless wanderer, you won't live long, I will stay here to plan around, you come according to the appointed time, we can successfully uproot Hei Nier, maybe we can get more benefits...... When you go, send her to me, and if she resists, tie her up and don't kill her...... Oh, by the way, one more thing, I wonder if Brother Dong knows about temples or altars that haven't been demolished yet? ”

Zhou Dong nodded a little dazedly, and then said, "I'll go back and ask, and I'll bring you the news as well." ”

Chen Ye looked at the time, it was already more than 3 o'clock in the afternoon, at the end of this day, he was indeed a little tired, but the harvest was far more than he thought, he walked back while happily opening the box, at any time could not compare to the happy mood at this time.

There are a total of 9 white treasure chests and 5 blue treasure chests, Chen Ye first opened all the white treasure chests in one go, in addition to some sundries for exchanging crystals, there are also 2 bottles of basic skill upgrade potions, and 1 bottle of entry skill upgrade potions.

Chen Ye's current proficiency in sub-skills is basically full, and the demand for entry-level skill promotion potions is particularly large, and this is obviously a blue-quality item prop, but it is often traded for more than 1,000 crystals on the Tianshu network, which shows that everyone's demand is very high, but the basic skill potions can only be sold for a miscellaneous price, but Chen Ye has prescribed a very interesting thing.

[Barometric grenade: quality blue; products of steam technology; Remove the gas needle, which explodes after a delay of 1 minute, dealing 200 high-pressure damage and 300 fire damage within a radius of 5 meters.

This thing Chen Ye seemed to have exploded from the treasure chest of the red-clothed police officer who was facing each other at the East Wharf, and then, Chen Ye continued to open the 5 blue treasure chests, which were all exploded from those foreign captains, so the related items were also more targeted.

[Logbook: Quality Blue; special items; By reading, you can gain skills related to "sailing", and if there are clues to match them, you can even discover certain secrets. 】

[Lotrie's scimitar; Quality blue; two-handed weapons; Sharpness 80; Strength +3]

【Scuba; Quality green; special items; Can breathe underwater after use, duration 2 hours, 3/3 number of uses】

[The tail fin of the revenant fish; Quality blue; special items; This is the tail fin of a revenant fish, even if it is cut in half, it does not lose its vitality, as long as it is placed in the sea, it will automatically look for its other half. 】

In addition, he also obtained 1 bottle of entry skill upgrade potion, Chen Ye took 2 bottles of introductory potion, and the "entry dual wielding" and "entry shooting" were all upgraded to F level, and the rest of the things were stuffed and reluctantly put into the Sumeru space.

Chen Ye returned to the office, Sophia was making coffee, it seemed that there were still guests in the reception room, and when she saw Chen Ye, she said, "Sir, you are late to come back, Sheriff Peter has been waiting for you for a long time." She gestured to the reception room next to her.

Chen Ye nodded and went directly into the reception room, Sergeant Peter came in plain clothes, dressed very plainly, with a slightly chubby belly and a half-bald head, he didn't look like a sheriff who dealt with violent incidents at all, Lent City is very large, and there are many sheriffs, but Sheriff Peter is the only one, because compared to getting closer to the upper echelons, this Sergeant Peter focuses on personal pleasure and mingling with the people below, and has even been reported to be a spy who Black Neill broke into the interior, of course, after the investigation, it does not exist at all.

"Sergeant Peter, long time no see!" Chen Ye enthusiastically went up and gave a hug, without feeling guilty at all for making the distinguished guests wait for a long time.

Sergeant Peter's face is not very good, he has many lovers, but Dali Ma Fiso is one of the more special, it is a little reluctant to run this trip for her, and he has waited for more than an hour, but there are many places that need to rely on Chen Yulun next, and he is also inconvenient to have an accident as he is proficient in accidents, so he has to cough lightly and said: "I heard that Mr. Detective wants to take over the supernatural cases that happened in my jurisdiction?" He threw a bag of papers on the table.

Sergeant Peter skipped all the information from Dalima Fiso and directly spread the results on the table, Chen Ye was not surprised, no one likes to talk about shady things at such a time, Chen Ye picked up the file bag, opened it and looked at it, it was the file of the recent supernatural case.

"Report to the police station at 8 o'clock tomorrow, I will arrange for you to join as a special external officer, and the pass will also give you the maximum authority, you had better fulfill your promises, otherwise, you should know what problems you will face, my detective!" Sergeant Peter said, standing up.

Chen Ye did not go out again, but has been staying in the study, studying the file of the supernatural case, judging from the photos and text materials, the victim Rodesno is a special technician of the Cotoso steam factory, as for the full-time job is positioned as "confidential" can not be known, Rodesno's life is very plain, since he was a child in the technical school to learn lathes and metal grinding, after graduation assigned to the Cotoso factory, 27 years old is unmarried, parents also died early, it looks very miserable.

But what I didn't expect was that more tragic things were still to come, at 9 o'clock in the evening the day before yesterday, Rodesno, who had just gotten off work, may be going to the restaurant he frequents to eat, and an incident occurred when he passed by the park, and the specific encounter is unknown, but at 6 o'clock the next morning, he was found abandoned under the cedar tree in the park, and he had been disemboweled, but according to the identification of the scene, Rodesno strangled himself with his intestines, which is unimaginable, and what is even more strange is that his heart is gone, as if there should have been a place for the heart, Suddenly an empty piece came out, as if there had never been such an organ.

When Rodesno's body was moved, something even stranger happened, Rodesno's body burned violently, burned to ashes in just 1 minute, and even 2 policemen were burned alive, the blue flames could not be extinguished, and the burned person experienced great pain, covering his head and wailing throughout the whole process, his whole body gradually melted like molten wax, and finally cooled into ashes printed on the ground, but not even a single grass on the lawn was destroyed.

If this case hadn't been for Chen Ye's intervention, Peter would have been ready to put it on the shelf, anyway, Rodesno was not an important person, not even a bitter master, although it was published by reporters, but everyone would forget it if they talked about it as an interesting story for a few days, but Dai Lima Fiso begged him, he had to take out the sheriff's shelf in a serious way, to thoroughly investigate this case, and also applied for the highest alert level.

Chen Ye read the archival materials three times, made sure that he had written down all the details, and then wrote a few clues in a quill pen on a blank piece of paper: midnight, insanity, loss of heart, blue flame, pain, white ashes.

"Bang bang bang!" There was a knock on the door, and Sophia opened the door and said, "Sir, someone said that they came to deliver goods to you, what did you buy?" To pack it in such a large box? ”

Chen Ye looked at the time, and at half past six in the afternoon, he rubbed his eyebrows and said, "The tools used to handle the case...... Sophia, I'm very hungry today, I'll add one more dinner later, and then you can get off work. ”

Soon, two strong coolies moved in the one-person-high cargo box and put it in Chen Ye's study, and then handed Chen Ye a letter, Chen Ye knew the two of them, and they were indeed Zhou Dong's subordinates, he didn't expect Zhou Dong's actions to be so fast, and everything was arranged in just a few hours.

Chen Ye waited for Sophia to send a dinner for two After getting off work, he personally closed all the doors and windows of the office, and then opened the cargo box, only to see that Catelin was gagged, her hands and feet were all tied and sturdy, and she was struggling in the cargo box, but Zhou Dong, who was good at binding, made her unable to use any strength, so she could only stare at Chen Ye with her eyes open, she knew this man, he was still a murderer at that time, but now he looks well-dressed.

Chen Ye was not in a hurry to let go of Katrin, but opened Zhou Dong's letter, Zhou Dong's letter first expressed his appreciation for Catlin's skills, and then said that he had spent a lot of effort to tie it up, and suggested that if Chen Ye wanted to do something, he should do it first and then untie it, otherwise he was afraid of suffering, and then answered the question that Chen Ye wanted to know the most, the religious temples in Lunt City have been destroyed, but in the mountains and forests in the western suburbs, there is a very secret place, which is only circulated in the bottom circle, so the Lunt City Arbitration Garrison Department does not know, There was a sketch on the last page, and he couldn't ask what the hell was enshrined in it.

Chen Ye hid the sketch, then threw the others into the fireplace, and then turned to Katrin's side and said, "If you don't shout, I can untie you, don't worry, I didn't kill you at that time, and I won't have any more ill will towards you, of course, the reason why I left you because I want to know what the 'Siren Curse' on you is?" ”

As soon as the words "Kraken Curse" came out, Katrin immediately stopped, stared at Chen Ye with wide eyes and nodded slowly, Chen Ye took out the blockage in her mouth, and then cut the rope and said, "Your body is still very weak, come and have some dinner, and by the way, talk about the 'curse'." ”

Katrin didn't care about Chen Ye's rudeness, walked out of the cargo box, took a picture of herself in front of the bust mirror for the first time, and then subconsciously touched her chest, and touched her wavy long hair, it could be seen that it was the first time she saw her appearance, and the emotion in her eyes almost fell into tears.

Chen Ye ate the same chewing wax bread and baked potatoes, it was really not a hearty dinner, but the milk was very fresh, there was a unique sweetness, it took a while for Katrin to calm down, and she started to eat dinner opposite Chen Ye, she was obviously hungry for a long time, Chen Ye handed her a glass of milk and asked, "Aren't you going to say something?" ”

Katrin ...... My name is Katrin, but everyone used to call me Carter, and my father is Howard......" Katrin said while stuffing bread, Chen Ye can unravel the curse for her, even if there is a big grudge before, it doesn't seem to be an important thing, the two just eat and talk, Chen Ye quickly understood the beginning and end of the "curse".
