Chapter 120: Inquiry
Austin also felt that the current scene was quite absurd, and the person who had thought about his life a few days ago was now talking to him happily, and he was about to reach the point of calling him a brother, although this was only the first time they had met.
That's right, the first time they met, he covered his face last night, and in Austin's mind, it wasn't a "meeting".
He knew that Norinsa didn't know the secrets of his heart, and his contemplative appearance only showed that he was not interested in such social occasions, and the soldiers in Beiwang City always had more of an iron-blooded taste than Apocalypse City, and there was less of those unnecessary tediousness and welcome.
When there was finally a moment of silence in the conversation, Nolinsa signaled the waiter to come and pour the wine, and at the same time stretched out his hand to Austin and said, "A few side dishes, and please Mr. Austin don't dislike it." ”
Austin pouted secretly, the roast chicken in front of him was golden and crispy, the steak was tender and delicious, and the wine was also considered to be the best quality, where could it be said to be a side dish?
After a quiet meal, Norlinsa waved off the waiter and said to Austin: "Mr. Austin, I invite you to come today, on the one hand, to apologize to you on behalf of the Beiwang City Inquisition, because of the busy military affairs these days, I would like to forgive you." ”
Austin waved his hand and said: "My lord's words are serious, I haven't completed Lord Von Lantlin's task, I'm afraid that I have already come to Beiwang City without permission, and I have already been guilty of it, fortunately I was taken in by the adults of Beiwang City, where do I dare to ask for anything?"
"Lord Von Lantlin has a lot of praise for you, and I'm afraid that all the support forces from Apocalypse City will also be under your command, so why talk about it?" Norinsa obviously didn't want to dwell on this issue too much, "On the other hand, you should have heard about the assassination a few days ago, right? Mr. Bai is an eyewitness. We'd like you to describe what happened to you that day. ”
It's finally begun. Austin took a sip of the wine in his glass, feeling a little funny in his heart, just because he was a close confidant of Von Lantrin, the questioning had to be in such a form, even the real power figure in Beiwang City, the true powerhouse of the seventh order, Norinsa, had to be polite, and chose such an ambiguous place to ask him about his traces that night.
Even if there are 10,000 words of ridicule in my heart, this play still has to be performed.
After a long silence, the handsome civilian soldier who was taking notes raised his head to see the somewhat frozen atmosphere, and retracted his head with interest.
The other two couldn't hold their breath, and one of them stood up to say something, when Austin suddenly slammed the glass in his hand to the ground, and the splashing glass made a crisp crashing sound, which seemed so abrupt and harsh in the small room.
"Are you suspicious of me?" Austin spoke again, his voice full of murderous intent, and the thick smell of blood permeated, forming a pale red mist, and the pungent smell irritated the civilian soldiers who had just eaten almost vomited.
At this time, Austin slowly stood up, and the blanket on his lap slipped to the ground and coiled up, like an abandoned beast.
His whole body trembled slightly, but the fierce light in his eyes clearly explained: this is a beast that chooses people to devour, and is on the verge of rage, regardless of the broken body, it will also deliver a fatal blow to the enemy!
"I've acted, I've acted. Bai was still sitting in a wheelchair, and seemed to be still immersed in the joy just now, and said casually.
Austin shrugged his shoulders and sat down again, his body was already soaked with cold sweat, watching Davix pick up the thin blanket on the ground and cover it, and said indifferently: "Okay, but I'm a little angry, I feel that even if I am guilty of losing my life, I am also a warrior who fought bloodily, and I should not be neglected in Beiwang City, let alone be doubted and insulted meaninglessly here." ”
"It's not an insult to you, it's just ...... A process-compliant inquiry. In this case, it is better for Nolinsa to explain it himself, although his tone and attitude are a little blunt and annoying.
Austin was like a clumsy and shameless actor, who had just been accused of poor acting skills, but he did not feel the slightest shame, but his face was kind, he took a paper cigarette handed by Davix, and said: "Okay, I'm just complaining, in the eyes of some people, I'm a guilty person, isn't it? ”
"No one says you're guilty, you're a respectable warrior and commander. Norinsa continued to express his appreciation for Austin's actions during the Cold River incident, and then pulled the topic back, "So, what were you doing that night? Can you give us a general description, not too detailed, but it must be organized, and it would be better if you could provide some corroboration." ”
Austin smiled and said, "Don't be thorough and be clear...... Ah, I don't mean anything else, back to the point. After I returned to the city, I went to meet the informant arranged by Lord Von Lantrin in Beiwang City, who it is inconvenient to reveal who is inconvenient to disclose, and received the order to stand by in place, no one here can prove it, I believe you can understand. ”
Norlinsa nodded, reaching out for Austin to continue.
"Then I went to the logistics department to go through the formalities, and then I went straight to my current residence, and there are your military entourages along the way, so you can go and investigate. ”
"And then?"
"Then I went to a shop on the black market, and the merchant group behind them was the Blood Moon, and I'm sure you've heard of this organization, the Alien New Party, but I have nothing to do with them, just that I need a material, which only they have, and I need a large amount of goods. ”
"Then how did you exchange it? In my impression, you don't have much wealth, and I don't believe you can bring any wealth out of Hanjiang City. ”
Austin's heart sank, knowing that this was a hurdle that could not be bypassed, and deliberately hesitated for a moment before saying, "Mr. Norinsa...... I know what you're responsible for, but there are some things that I think are my personal privacy and shouldn't be made public, at least not in the copy. ”
This sentence meant something, and Norin sa froze Austin for a moment, and said to the handsome young man beside him: "Clerk, don't remember these words. ”
The young man answered, closing the lid of the pen and indicating that he would not take notes.
Austin still didn't speak, Nolinsa frowned, and said a little impatiently: "These are my cronies, trustworthy, and they won't talk nonsense." ”
"Hitch up. After all, the new party is a foreign race, and there are many inconveniences in Apocalypse City, in the past, the Blood Moon Merchant Group used Hanjiang City as a transit station, and directly dispersed most of them in Hanjiang City, and the rest formed some small caravans to enter Apocalypse City, all of which were allowed by the Holy See. But now that Hanjiang City has been destroyed by the evil magic of the Northern Barbarians, they need to find another way. ”
"And so I found you?"
"That's right, I'll arrange for them to be the official procurement status of the Inquisition, and let a certain amount of goods enter Apocalypse City. Of course, the number of aliens still needs to be limited, and they will arrange for some normal humans to come into the city to sell, but removing the name of the blood moon will reduce a lot of unnecessary trouble and waste. ”
A smile finally appeared on Nolinsa's face, the tacit smile of the privileged people.
