Chapter XVI Investigation

When he returned to his office in the office area, he was dealing with government affairs when his subordinates suddenly knocked on the door and came in and reported: "My lord, the secret envoy of the Jinwu Kingdom wants to meet and is waiting outside the door. ”

After stopping what he was doing, and after thinking for a while, the mayor quietly ordered, "Let him in!"

"Secret envoy, don't go to see the prime minister, what are you looking for?" puzzled, I can only wait for someone to come for a while!

When the so-called envoy came in, he bowed and saluted, "Hunter Parks, the lieutenant of the capital of the Golden Crow Kingdom, it is an honor to meet you!

"You're welcome, Adjutant Parks, please take a seat!" he raised his hand and pointed to the chair next to him and continued, "May I ask what is the reason for coming to Xizhou this time?"

Hunter thanked the mayor, took out the identity document he carried with him from his arms and handed it to the mayor, turned around and sat down, and answered with some righteous indignation: "Do you know about my family of General Jin Wu Guoma a year ago?"

The mayor of the town was stunned for a moment when he heard this, it was a big deal, according to the rumors from the Jinwu Kingdom at that time, the Ma family was originally a big family guarding the town, but they all disappeared inexplicably.

It is said that the orphans of a hostile country that had been eliminated before infiltrated the upper echelons, and then led to this strange extermination incident under the cooperation of the inside and the outside! Although after more than a year of investigation, a lot of results have been achieved, but the person at the top has never been found.

I looked down again and looked at the document in my hand repeatedly, and it really didn't look like a fake. However, the real purpose of the other party's visit needs to be verified before it can be officially confirmed!

He sighed, with a playful sense of regret in his tone: "Yes, Adjutant Parks, I was shocked and unbelievable when I heard the news! General Ma is an excellent genius of war! To die so inexplicably is a great loss to the whole world!"

Then the conversation changed: "So, Adjutant Parks came to see me, do you need any help? If it doesn't have any negative impact on the Maple Leaf Kingdom and my rule, I, the mayor of Wanghai Town, Lord Frean-Russell are willing to help!"

As soon as he said a word, Hunter was immediately choked half to death, and most of the demands he wanted to make were blocked at once. Fortunately, Black Fly never comes up with more than one set of plans!

Hurriedly got up and pretended to be grateful, and bowed: "Thank you, sir, for your generosity! I only hope to be qualified to investigate a passenger ship called Mary that has recently stopped in the harbor!"

"Why? Why?" Hearing that the other party wanted to authorize the passenger liner to investigate the qualifications, the mayor immediately became vigilant. You must know that almost all of Wanghai Town's taxes come from shipping, and passenger transportation can account for a large proportion!

If it was just an investigation of the freighter, maybe the mayor of the town would have agreed without saying a word when he looked at the face of the Golden Crow Kingdom! If it was just a passenger ship, if something went wrong, the ghost would know what would come out in the end!

This point Hunter and others also took into account, as the most important commercial town in the Maple Leaf Country, Wanghai Town has always attached great importance to its reputation in order to attract more visitors. If you are just an individual with little energy, it may not matter if you have a carrot or not!

But when encountering a national-level giant group like the Golden Crow Kingdom, there are obviously more things to consider. What kind of people on the passenger ship will imagine the contents of this investigation by themselves and others, and will it affect the transportation business of Wanghai Town in the future? Will some of the mayor's actions affect the relations between the two countries? These are all unknown!

He got up silently and smiled: "Don't worry, you don't have to worry, we just want to get some information from the captain of the Mary, and in order to show our sincerity, we hope that your lord can send someone to follow you all the way!

The mayor squinted at the middle-aged sheriff adjutant, and after calculating the possibilities, he shook his head and rejected the proposal: "No, dear Adjutant Parks, I have a better proposal!"

When Hunter Parks walked out of the mayor's office, the old man with a slanted face, and the men and women waiting outside the door hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "My lord, has the mayor agreed?"

Hunter shook his head strangely, and led the two subordinates back to the bench where they had just been waiting and sat down. At this time, the secretary who had just received them was called in by the mayor.

The moment the door closed, Hunter made a nose pinch before he spoke: "The mayor does not agree with our investigation, but will arrange for his own people to meet the captain of the Mary and make the inquiry work on our behalf!"

The two glanced at each other when they heard this, and after nodding to each other imperceptibly, the man breathed a sigh of relief and replied, "It's okay! It's okay! If the mayor sends someone to contact us, maybe it's more appropriate than going there ourselves!"

After a while, the secretary opened the door again, walked straight to the three of Hunter, and bowed slightly: "The villain is the secretary Anthony, please follow me to record all the questions I asked the captain of the Mary, and the answers I hope to get!"

After taking notes, Anthony stopped writing, gently blew the ink on the paper and handed it back to the three Hunters for review, and only then explained, "Lord Parks, please come with me, the other two adults need to wait here, Mayor Mare hopes to have dinner with the three of them after the questioning!"

Driving to the harbor area again, with Anthony's mayor's warrant to open the way, the two unhurriedly found the passenger liner Mary, which was undergoing a complete overhaul.

When Little Jack saw this secretary, he immediately motioned to Mark Third Officer to leave temporarily with his eyes, and greeted him with a smile: "Hey, hello, little Anthony, long time no see!"

Anthony, who was only twenty-three or four-year-old, responded with a smile, and handed the warrant to little Jack: "Good afternoon, Captain Jack, the mayor of the town has an order, I need to ask the captain some questions, let's find a quiet place, how about it!"

Glancing at the gray-haired strange man who followed Anthony closely, although little Jack instinctively had a strong resistance, if he didn't do it immediately, he might be in even bigger trouble next!

Nodding, a smile tugged at the corner of his mouth: "Of course, my friend! The tavern should be quiet at this time! Yes, I happen to know that there is a nice place nearby!"

The three of them walked all the way, Anthony never wanted to introduce the stranger next to him, and although little Jack was a little curious, he didn't take the initiative to ask anything.

After Mary was pushed away by her father, out of some worry, she didn't go far, and when she saw the three of them walking out of the dock, she only frowned.

"Maybe I'm a little too sensitive!"

The whole process of questioning went smoothly, and Captain Jack also answered all questions, and even the fact that his daughter gave the beggar some change out of ignorance was that she personally sent the money over.

In the case that he didn't know the identities of the two at the time, in order to hide his daughter's affairs on the ship, he could only explain this behavior as his own stupid mercy!

Fortunately, Anthony and the stranger had always been polite and did not chase after him. While making Little Jack secretly happy, he also knew that the safety of himself and the others should be guaranteed!

After the questioning, the three shook hands with each other, and the adjutant Parks from the Golden Crow just smiled politely, briefly apologized, and left with Anthony.

After the stone in Little Jack's heart fell, the next time, wait intently for the end of the overhaul to return!
