Officers loaded the metal freezer containing the bloody Harry's body and all the pirate DNA samples onto the police patrol ship. In their hurry to leave, they didn't even say goodbye to Robin, and only signaled the lights, and the boarding aisle between the two ships was disconnected and folded into the ship.

With the roar of its engines, Alfred's police patrol ship was fully powered and quickly departed like a wild horse, disappearing into a tiny point of light in the boundless galaxy.

"He's in a hurry."

Inside the bridge, Zoro appeared behind Robin with a cold expression, looking in the direction of Alfred's departure.

"Yes, there must be something that is bothering him and causing him to lose his usual caution." Robin propped his chin in his hands and ordered with a deep gaze: "Tell Christine that you can start tracking the signal." Right now...... Let's see, where exactly will he send this evidence? ”

"Isn't it Brandon?" Lee, who was fiddling with his firearm on the side, looked up curiously, he didn't understand why Robin had asked Christine to install a special signal tracking in that electronic folder beforehand, which seemed to him to be unnecessary.

"That's why I did it because he didn't necessarily give it to Brandon." Robin casually opened a message on the ship's computer, pointed to the man who was giving a public speech, and said, "This person is Anse Air?" Osvid, before my meeting with Jarfred, I came across this message on the public channel. That's why I suspect that Alfred's motives for reaching out to me before Brandon were not so pure. ”

"What is he doing?" Li put down the firearm he was fiddling with and came over curiously.

"In his capacity as a member of the Public Opinion Council, on behalf of the federal citizens in Proxima Centauri, he denounced the incompetence of the police and applied for the impeachment of Governor of Police Brandon? Rex. Robin shook his head with a wry smile: "Judging from the prestige he has built up in the early stage, his public speech will be a fatal blow to Brandon, and the alliance of giants in the Alpha Capital Circle led by Brandon may also collapse as a result." ”

"You mean......" Lee exclaimed in understanding, "you mean that Alfred will hand over the results to Anse Air and let him complete the fatal blow to Brandon?" ”

"In the temptation just now, Alfred clearly lied to me." Robin stared at the impassioned Ansel on the three-dimensional screen, and said in a deep voice: "The pirate turmoil caused by Bloody Harry has spread to the entire Proxima Centauri, and judging from the position of the Inspector of the Space Police in the Northern Star Domain of Alfred, he is certainly responsible for this matter, but he alone may not be able to shoulder all the responsibilities alone." The most likely scenario is that he and Brandon are removed from their posts at the same time. However, if he can make some merit and get the support of Ansel, perhaps he can still hope to get out of this incident and put all the blame on Brandon. ”

"This ...... How is this possible, isn't Brandon his uncle? Isn't that tantamount to betraying his uncle? Lee shook his head in disbelief, unable to understand that Alfred would help an outsider deal with his uncle.

"Martina once told me that in the Commonwealth, people are in a relationship of mutual use. As long as the price is right, even father and son can sell each other, let alone uncle and nephew. Robin rubbed his eyebrows tiredly and sighed: "The current situation is very unfavorable to us, judging from Ansel's public speech, he may have rebelled against the alliance of giants in the Alpha Capital Circle, and has the support of the representatives of various giants." As a result, there is almost no possibility of Brandon turning the tables again......"

"Then why did you give all that important evidence to Alfred, now that you already know it?"

"If you give it directly to Brandon, you will be tantamount to a public solidarity with him. Well, this act will make us enemies of the House of Ausveld. In the current situation, Brandon is destined to be a loser, and as a bettor, if he bets knowing that he will lose, he can only bring about his own destruction. Speaking of this, Robin smiled bitterly and said, "At this table called Proxima Centauri, we don't have the strength to compete with such a powerful guy. So, stay outside as much as possible to protect yourself. ”

“……”

After a moment of stupefaction, Lee picked up the gun around him and gave up discussing this extremely brain-draining topic with Robin.

"Damn, your words are getting more and more esoteric...... I really don't understand, how can you think of so many complicated things. ”

"If I could, I wouldn't want to be like this. However, in order to survive in this enemy country, I had to turn myself into a thoughtful conspirator. Robin stood up and paced back and forth in the bridge before suddenly ordering, "Load some metal ingots from Planet Bruno on board, and we'll go to the Georgia space station." ”

…… Georgia space station.

This is the headquarters of Byron Heavy Metals Trading Company in the Northern Star Field, a space station named after Martina's father, which was once in danger of going out of business. But now, just a few months later, this place has become the rare material refining center of the entire Proxima Centauri Field. And Martina's Byron Heavy Metal Trading Company has become the absolute ruler of the rare matter field in Proxima Centauri.

At present, Martina has completely digested all the assets in Elliott's name. This made the Byron Heavy Metals Trading Company she ran burst out of unprecedented strength, and the scale of operation expanded exponentially. The scope of business is even more staggering, including the giants of the machinery field such as Alex Machinery Company and Ford Machinery Company, almost 90% of the machinery companies in Proxima Centauri have begun to be supplied by Martina's Byron Heavy Metals Trading Company.

Increasing business demand has made it difficult for the Georgia space station to keep up with sales figures on its own. Therefore, not long ago, Martina took advantage of the collapse of many companies due to pirate riots, and harvested all 27 other space stations in the nearby area except for the octopus space station, and completely turned this area into a production base of the Byron company.

While Martina was expanding in the commercial realm, Robin was busy exterminating the interstellar pirates, so he didn't realize that the weak little girl not long ago had grown into a major business tycoon. And when he arrived in the familiar star field on the AT-089, he was dazzled by the endless stream of transports and the Byron company logo, all of which were so foreign to him, that he could barely overlap the scene in front of him with the scene in his memory.

"This ...... Is this really the Georgia space station? ”

Looking at the hexagonal space station in front of him, which had more than doubled in size, Robin was speechless in shock, if it weren't for the eye-catching star coordinates on the ship's radar, Robin couldn't believe that this would be the Georgia space station in his memory.

"Sir, the Georgia space station has approved our berthing application and cleared Spaceport One for us to berth." In the captain's position, Lieutenant Taylor reported to Robin.

Awakened from shock by Taylor's voice, Robin restrained the look of surprise on his face and nodded, "Hmm...... Let's dock ......"

Immediately, many of the transports under sail on the channel evaded it, as if they were meeting some big person, making way for the AT-089 to make an empty channel. Walking through countless huge ships, the 12,000-ton Catfish Type 1 transport ship is like a small catfish surrounded by whales, and the huge visual difference makes Robin feel like a dream.

"Original...... Before he knew it, the little girl had grown up......" looked at the pomp and circumstance in front of him, and Robin smiled, the guilt that had been hidden in his heart gradually dissipated as he witnessed this scene.

Under the direction of the Georgia Space Station's navigation lighthouse, the AT-089 slowly unfolded its mechanical fixation and anchored at Spaceport 1. Once the ship was in place, the station unfolded its folding deck, enveloping the entire spaceport like a cocoon, turning the spaceport into an inner harbor of the space station.

When Robin and his entourage stepped out of the hatch, they saw Martina, who was already waiting in the harbor.

With a visceral look of joy on her face, Martina tried to run towards Robin as she had done before. However, in this kind of public occasion, as the head of Byron's company, she has to take care of the company's image, so she can only hold back the excitement in her heart and wait for Robin to come to her like a torment.

And Robin may have felt Martina's restraint, so considering Martina's position, Robin did not show any intimate actions, he shook hands with Martina very formulaically, and expressed that he would visit here because he wanted to deliver the 10,000 tons of metal ingots newly produced on Planet Bruno.

This was not the way Martina wanted to greet her, although she knew that it would be embarrassing for Robin to be too intimate on this occasion, but in her heart, she faintly expected Robin to greet him like a lover. But now, looking at Robin's formulaic smile and words, Martina suddenly felt an indescribable discomfort. She felt that the relationship between herself and Robin had suddenly become much more distant, and a strange feeling had never been felt before, so that Martina didn't even know what to say when she faced Robin.

"I ...... Let's go to my office, I think it's a little cold in here......" Martina said, looking away, as if casually.

"Cold?" Behind him, Nishizawa looked curiously at the thermometer on the wall, wanting to see if the temperature regulator in the space station was broken.

"Huh? It's working normally......"

Looking at the working thermometer in confusion, Nishizawa turned his head to look at Robin and Martina, who had already walked side by side to the inside of the space station, shook his head and followed.
