Chapter 178: Say One Dies
"You...... What evidence do you want?" asked Gray. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
As soon as he spoke in his normal tone, his voice immediately became hoarse. Thinking about it, after talking for most of the morning, anyone will have a damaged voice.
Lukka thought for a moment and said, "Why don't you start with your name? Gray McSean isn't really real, right?"
"Of course not, but what's the point of knowing my name? I'm being contacted by a code name on the Alliance's side anyway. Gray still wanted a little privacy.
"Codename, what is your codename?" Luka was not much better than Daniel in the matter of interrogation, and as soon as he started questioning, he was taken away by the other party.
Kate frowned again, but the deviation shouldn't be too much of a problem, and she didn't interrupt the captain's question.
"Carrier pigeons. My code name is the carrier pigeon. Gray replied.
Isn't that perfunctory? Because the pigeons were caught, they made up such a code name improvly? Lukka was about to question, but found Crete nodding to himself.
He's a little crying and laughing, you guys at least make up a "Deep Sea 007" or something cool, a carrier pigeon or something, it sounds similar to the courier brother of Sunset Express.
"Captain Lester?" Gray didn't hear the question behind, a little strange, shouldn't it be a follow-up question at this time?
"Oh, distracted. I was thinking about whether I should send you to the kitchen as well. Lukka said earnestly.
"That's good, I'll be able to drink pigeon soup before I die. Gray said nonchalantly, for him, dying on Tata Island as an Coalition spy was a more acceptable outcome than being sent back to the Coalition territory as an Imperial spy for execution.
"You've got that superior—or upline—that's that sort of thing, right?" Lukka continued.
"Liaison, that's called Liaison!" Gray struggled with the correct title.
"Well, who's your contact?" Lukka corrected immediately.
"Captain Edmund Benson. You can check it out. Gray quickly said a name, which didn't look like it was made up.
Lukka didn't react to the name, of course, but Crete suddenly said, "I think I've heard it." ”
He looked down and thought for a moment, and said affirmatively, "In the search team sent by Taylor, the dead captain is called that. ”
Lukka asked in surprise, "Is it the search team that brought back that broken porcelain piece?"
Crete nodded.
"It's not going to be easy, the contact you mentioned died a few months ago. Lukka shook his head and said to Gray, "You didn't know the news in advance and give us a death testimonial, right?"
"Dead, dead?" Gray didn't hide his surprise this time.
"Well, dead. I'd better go write to Taylor. Lukka said and stood up from his chair.
"Wait, I have other contacts, I have three!" Gray exclaimed.
Lukka stopped and stood to the side waiting for him to continue.
"Major Donald White!" Gray called out another name.
Lukka had never heard the name, but Kate walked over to the cabinet behind her desk and opened the door to pull out a stack of Sunset Express reports. These reports are not the kind of daily newspapers that can be found everywhere on the docks, but are information provided exclusively to the island lords, detailing all military movements in the Sunset Islands. Of course, only on the surface.
"I remember seeing it!" Kate said here," Kate rummaged through a reading four months earlier, "Lieutenant General Donald White of the Union Navy died of a sudden illness on January 3, 1486, at the age of Chinese New Year's Eve. ”
"You're not kidding us again, are you?" Lukka stood behind Gray's side, his voice fierce, his face still wincing at Crete and Kate.
"And a third!Colonel Harry Norman!Second Fleet!" Gray was really anxious now, this was the highest-ranking officer he could come into contact with, and the last person who knew his identity.
Kate sighed and said, "I don't need to look this up, I remember the name." Three months earlier, there had been a skirmish between the Union and the Imperial Navy, in which Colonel Norman had died. ”
"Conflict? Isn't there no official war between the two sides yet?" Luca asked.
"Without artillery fire, there can be no war. In that clash, the ships of both sides collided with each other. The ship on which Colonel Norman was located was the first to be rammed and sunk. On the Alliance's side, his identity is still 'missing', as his body was recovered by the Imperial Navy. Kate explained.
"That's right. Lukka nodded, and walked over to Gray again, "It's all dead, what else do you say?"
Gray was stunned for a moment, then said dejectedly, "I'm really a spy of the Alliance......"
Luca patted him on the shoulder: "Don't worry, I believe this." However, did you order Rick's superiors? It seems that it would be better for me to send you back to the Alliance, where some superiors told you to go to Rick. ”
"Wait, no!" Gray cried out again.
Before coming to Tata Island, all traces of his existence in the Alliance were erased in order to prevent his identity from being discovered, and only the three contacts knew his identity.
This means that no one in the June Alliance now knows that there is such a spy, and if Lukka is sent back to the Alliance's territory, his identity is that of an out-and-out pirate.
"And what do you say?" Lukka spread his hands.
"Shall I stay here and continue to fulfill that contract?" Gray was indeed thick-skinned.
Luca really asked, "Do you think I'm particularly easy to trust people?"
Gray didn't know how to answer for a moment.
Lukka laughed, "It's okay, they all say that. But do you know why I'm so easy to trust people?"
Gray shook his head.
"That's because, even if I make a mistake in judgment, I have the ability to solve all the problems that have been caused by it. Luka's tone became serious, "You can take a gamble and see if you can take the consequences of lying to me!"
"I really didn't want to lie to you this time, you see, I can't go back anyway, what else can I do?" Gray quickly explained.
"Salary halved! Also, from now on, your range of activities will be limited to this station. As he spoke, a burst of silver light flashed with Lukka's right hand, and he slapped his palm on Gray's shoulder, and the light quickly shifted to Gray's body with this movement, gradually dimming.
"What is this?" asked Gray.
"I planted a magic bomb for you, and once you get out of the confines of this station, it will-boom!" Luca said, gesticulating.
In any case, the result was already much better than Gray had expected, and what could he complain about?
