"Alas~" On the way back from Zehu City, Ivan sighed from time to time. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"What's wrong, Admiral?" Lexington looked at Ivan with concern, "Is it because of what happened before?" ”

At that time, after coming out of the comic exhibition venue, Ivan had been resentful of the 100 krypton gold coupon for a long time.

"Nope." Ivan shook his head and said that it was not so, "Not exactly, although there is a little bit of that reason, but I feel that something bad has happened." ”

"Something bad?" Lexington blinked, "Admiral, what do you mean?" ”

"It's because I don't know that I feel a little irritable." Ivan shook his head, trying to shake off this uneasy feeling, "Forget it, I don't want to, go back to the town guard mansion first, I don't know if Nagato and they are back?" ”

By the time I returned to the Saeki Bay Governor's Palace from Sawahu City, it was already noon, and it would take half a day to make the round trip according to Nagato's previous departure.

"I'm already here anyway, I'll know when I get back."

"That's right."

……………………

"Ah, Lord Admiral is back, everyone run." Several elementary school students who were still playing in the square immediately ran away with their throats in their throats when they saw Ivan and Lexington coming in through the gate.

"What's wrong with everyone?" Lexington's blue eyes revealed doubt, wondering why the shipwresses in the town guard mansion screamed and left after seeing Ivan again.

"Maybe Saratoga hasn't explained what happened this morning." Ivan thought for a moment to understand why this happened, "Really, we have all returned from Zehu City, and she hasn't explained it clearly." ”

"Maybe it's because there are more ship girls in the town guard mansion, and she hasn't had time to tell all the ship girls yet, but the admiral doesn't have to worry, and the misunderstanding will be completely resolved in the end." Lexington explained to his sister.

"Hopefully." Ivan watched some ship girls in the distance also ran into the nearby room after hearing the screams of this group of elementary school students, closing the door tightly, I don't know what was going on, the uneasy feeling in Ivan's heart became more obvious.

"Don't worry, I'm sure Gaga will take care of this." It seems that Lexington believes in his sister.

"Well, then I'll go back to the office first, there are still a lot of official business that I need to deal with, I hope Nagato and they have returned, otherwise I will need to be busy for a long time with such a large number of official duties." Ivan waved his hand at Lexington and walked towards his office.

"Wait, if you don't mind, I can also help the Admiral deal with official business together, I used to learn a little bit when I was in the academy, although I became a wandering ship girl after graduation, but I think there is no problem." Lexington followed from behind and said to Ivan.

"Thank you so much, I'm worried about what to do with that data." Ivan heard that Lexington was asking for help, and immediately said gratefully.

"It's my job, and the Admiral doesn't have to thank me." Lexington shook his head to show that Ivan didn't care, then reached out and put his arm around Ivan, dragging Ivan forward, "Let's go, Admiral, let's go and deal with those annoying official duties together." ”

"I'll go myself."

……………………

"Haven't they come back yet?" Ivan pushed open the door and looked at the empty room, what he had left in the morning, and what it was still like now.

"It looks like he didn't come back." Lexington also walked into the room.

"In that case, Lexington, you go and help me deal with the data over there, I originally handed it over to Mutsu to deal with, but Mutsu was assigned a new task by me." Ivan pointed to the document on the table over there, "That one records the income and expenditure of the Governor's Mansion last month, you can help me count it and see the income of the Governor's Mansion last month." ”

"I see." After Lexington finished speaking, he walked over there without hesitation and began to count.

"I'm going to have to work hard." Ivan looked at Lexington, who had already entered the working state, and immediately sat back in his place and began to deal with the official business piled up on the table.

Time passed slowly, and just as Lexington was about to complete the statistics, the office door was pushed open again.

Nagato and Mutsu walked in from the outside, their faces a little ugly.

"Lexington?" As soon as Nagato entered, she saw Lexington on the side, and her face suddenly became a little more ugly, but she quickly covered it up.

"Nagato, you're back, how are things going?" Ivan, who was sitting in a chair and immersed himself in business, heard the movement at the door, raised his head, and then the figure of Nagato Mutsu came into his sight.

"Well, that's been figured out." Nagato looked away from Lexington, and when she returned to the Doge's Palace, she heard a big news.

"I went to the customs office, which records the entry and exit of ships." Mutsu walked up to Ivan's office, took out a piece of paper from the ship's space, and handed him to Ivan.

"Who is this?" Ivan took the paper from Mutsu's hand and realized that it turned out to be a personnel file, with a photo of a man pasted on the top right of the file.

"This is the person in charge of handing in the documents that day, and the document that was missing a piece of paper was handed in by him." Mutsu said to Ivan.

"Did he say anything about where Mutsu went?"

"Nope." Mutsu shook his head slightly, "He wasn't working there anymore when I went. ”

"What do you mean?" Ivan's brow furrowed.

"When I went there this morning, I was told by the staff there that this person had resigned for family affairs a few days ago." Mutsu's face was not very good-looking, "I just resigned after handing in that paper." ”

"So the clue is broken here?"

"Hmm." Mutsu nodded in response to Ivan's inquiry.

"I see." Ivan looked at Nagato again, "Nagato, how is your situation over there?" ”

"Admiral, I went to that shipping company to learn more about the situation." Once it was time to get down to business, Nagato's expression became serious, "The staff over there told me that there was a strange person who came over and said he wanted to rent a freighter, but when asked about the cargo that needed to be transported, they didn't want to talk more. ”

"Didn't anyone see what it was when they were delivering it to the ship?"

"Nope." Nagato shook his head, "I asked everyone who was there at the time, even the crew of the sunken freighter. ”

"The result?"

"They all said they didn't know, they only knew that it was a very large container, about 60 meters long, and more than 20 meters wide and high." Nagato told all the news he knew, "And as soon as the container was loaded onto the bed, the ship was fully loaded. ”

"Didn't that shipping company know that it was not allowed to ship unknown goods?!" Ivan was a little angry and dared to deliver the goods without even knowing what was being delivered.

"Because there was a guarantor and they gave a lot of money, the shipping company agreed."

"Who vouched for it?"

"It's Jiang Yu."

"Jiang Yu?" Ivan had no impression of this man at all.

"Admiral, he is one of the local forces in Saeki Bay, and the Jiang family's power is not very large." Mutsu briefly introduced Jiang Yu's situation, "At that time, we also invited him to the Admiral's banquet, but he refused without hesitation. ”

"That's right." Ivan's eyes narrowed, he would not be uninteresting to become the governor of Saeki Bay, since he refused without hesitation, he would definitely not follow him all the way, and such a large container, the contents of which he didn't want others to know.

"What did the surviving crew say?"

"They said that the freighter was sailing well at sea, and there was nothing going on, but suddenly the whole freighter broke directly in two from the middle, and the container in the middle also fell to the bottom of the sea and disappeared."

"Missing? Hmph, I think a 10,000-ton freighter can sink a fully loaded container directly to the bottom of the sea, I think it ran away by itself. "Originally, Ivan hadn't thought about it so much, but the more he thought about it, the more he understood.

"Nagato, come with me." Ivan got up from his chair and walked to the huge chart hanging on the wall, pointed to it and said, "Nagato, you see, this is where the freighter sank. ”

Ivan placed a small red magnet where the freighter sank, then picked up another small magnet and placed it not far from the red magnet.

"Here?"

"This is the sea where we fought at that time." Ivan pointed to the two seas, "Do you think these two are very close?" ”

"Well, it's really close, if we go all out, I'm afraid we can get there in half an hour."

"I said, how could that T-002 quietly touch the front of his house."

"Admiral, you mean the deep sea beast came with that freighter?"

"Isn't it? The T-002 was more than 50 meters long, just enough to fit into that huge container. ”

"If you think about it, it's possible." After listening to Ivan's speculation, Nagato nodded, indicating that what Ivan said made sense.

"When the empty mother comes back and makes sure that this matter is not done by the deep sea, then it will be like this."

"Admiral." And at this time, Lexington suddenly stood up from his chair and said to Ivan, "The data has been counted, does the Admiral need to look at it now?" ”

"Well, you can put it on the table first, and I'll see it later."

"Ahem." Nagato coughed softly.

"What's wrong, Nagato, not feeling well?"

"Admiral, since the business has been discussed, then we should take our personal affairs lightly."

"Private?"

"Although as the admiral's ship's wife, I don't have the right to ask the admiral's private affairs, but is it too hasty to marry the ship."

"Wedding ship?" Ivan blinked, he had absolutely no idea what Nagato was talking about.

"That's right, why did Michinoku and I only leave the Governor's Mansion for half a day, and you already have a wedding ship, Admiral." Nagato couldn't control his emotions a little, and his tone was very excited.

"Huh?!" At this moment, Ivan's heart was completely confused.
