Many towns on Mouth Island are considered prosperous.
There are also many hotels and other places where a large number of crew members are the main consumer force.
After all, crew members are people who like to spend money.
Some people are obviously from Mouth Island, but they don't even have a place to stay. They like to stay in hotels when they are not at sea.
Xia Yanzhen and the others found the most luxurious hotel in the town to stay.
First we had a meal and a drink, and then we went to our room to rest.
To be honest, everyone has "swum" in dirty sea water and fought, so they are inevitably very dirty.
After eating and washing up, it was getting late.
Everyone gathered in the living room of Xia Yanzhen's suite. Not long after Alec came in, he yawned again and again, and soon fell asleep lying next to him.
We don't need him to participate in the discussion. Let him come together just to protect this important prop.
"Captain Xia, what is certain now is that there is one or more strange forces that we cannot see or touch." Xiaoyao said, "It is difficult to restrain it."
"Yeah." Xia Yanzhen nodded, "You guys went crazy, which is most likely the reason why you killed those thugs."
Morton said his people are blessed.
Blessings from the God of Mouth, it is reasonable for those who kill the blessing to be punished by the God of Mouth.
"Next time try not to kill, or just do it alone." Xiaoyao said.
There is currently no way to resist it, so we can only reduce the impact.
"Well, I'll come if necessary." Xia Yanzhen said.
"Captain Xia, who should we look for next?" Xiaoyao asked.
"Wait first."
There are a total of five councilors on Mouth Island, who "sit" in the five towns on Mouth Island.
The councilor sitting in this town is naturally Morton.
Now Morton was attacked by "unknown persons" and suffered severe injuries.
Other members of the Mouth Council will definitely respond and absolutely want to investigate, meet with Morton, or as usual, a group of people gather for a meeting.
Xia Yanzhen and the others don't need to take the initiative to find him.
The MPs will come looking for it - unless they turn a blind eye.
Xia Yanzhen and the others just need to wait and see.
Also give Xiaoyao and the others some time to recover from their injuries.
Xiaoyao, it will take two or three days for Tiamat to fully recover from her injuries.
If it's not an emergency situation, there's actually no need to use better healing tools.
Of course, waiting is not just waiting, you need to understand the situation.
Know yourself and your enemy.
Early the next morning, Xiaoyao and others left the hotel and began to investigate.
When they returned in the evening, they already knew a lot about the five congressmen.
As the "Turkish Emperors" of Mouth Island, the identities of the five councilors are public, and there are many rumors about them, whether true or false.
The five councilors, except Morton, are Trust, Ann, Leo and Jason.
Four men and one woman.
An is the only woman among the five congressmen, but she is not the glamorous woman some people imagine - she was once glamorous.
Today, An is an old man in his seventies, the eldest among the five members of Congress.
In terms of "combat power" alone, Jason is the most powerful.
This guy tends to be a martial artist, and Jason's security company is responsible for all "security" matters on the island.
He has over 10,000 men under his command, and his ships are also the most heavily armed.
Leo, Trust, and Morton are all pretty much the same. They all have various industries and have many people under them.
These people stamped their feet and made the whole Mouth Island tremble.
The "power" of the five people is centered on Mouth Island and extends outward to include a large area such as the surrounding islands and seas.
They also have their own private islands.
The five people also have different names.
Morton likes to be called Congressman Morton.
An refused to accept her old age, so everyone respectfully called her Miss An.
Jason is a violent man in his prime. When he was young, he was involved in underground boxing. He prefers others to call him "Fighting King Jason" than Senator Jason.
Trust and Leo don't have any additional names. They don't have the same preference for names as Ann and Jason, nor do they like to emphasize their status as members of the Congress like Morton does.
Basically, outsiders call them Mr. Trust and Mr. Leo.
Among the five council members, Trust, Leo and An can be regarded as the "old nobles" inherited from Mouth Island.
He has been a big shot on Mouth Island since his ancestors.
Jason and Morton emerged in their generation.
Jason is completely self-made, and his methods are the most violent and violent.
Morton's father moved himself closer to the position of parliamentarian, and finally Morton took the crucial step.
There is cooperation among the five council members, but there are also conflicts of interest.
But at critical moments, we will definitely be consistent with the outside world.
Now that Morton is attacked, something will inevitably be done.
Among them, the person who is quickest is probably Jason.
Xia Yanzhen and the others did not hide their whereabouts. As the local emperor of the island, it was very easy to find them.
Sure enough, in the evening, not long after I returned to the room after dinner.
On the soft carpet outside, there was the sound of footsteps that could not be concealed.
A group of men in black occupied the entire corridor and formed a blockage around the door.
"There are probably dozens of people on the aisle..."
Inside the room, Xiaoyao and the others looked outside.
The road outside the hotel.
The pedestrians, who were not many in the first place, had all disappeared at some point.
Instead, there was a group of people walking from both sides of the road. These people were wearing black clothes that looked like suits. They were like two dark clouds gathering together, casting a layer of low pressure around them.
"There are probably thousands of people outside. Is this the Ax Gang?" Xiaoyao couldn't help but say when he saw the people outside.
The scene of crowds of people coming in reminded him of movies.
The darkness gradually falling in the evening added to the sense of oppression for these people.
"Captain Xia, are any of these people mermaids?" Xiaoyao asked.
As for ordinary people, with this small number of people, even if they all carry guns, they are no match for them.
The only problem comes from the "well-wishers".
"Among these people..." Xia Yanzhen looked out the window, "There are no mermaids, but there are apes."
"personnel?"
"Some people look like monkeys." Xia Yanzhen said.
Among the people on the road outside the window, some people also had protruding mouths, but there were no scales on their faces, replaced by tufts of thick black hair.
At first glance, it looks like a gorilla.
There are many differences between this and mermaid.
The clothes of these apes are slightly different and they look like leaders.
Several people still had cigarettes dangling from their mouths.
They looked towards the hotel building and raised their hands.
The crowd around them parted a path.
"That's..." Xiaoyao saw something that seemed to be pushed over, but it was blocked by the crowd and couldn't see clearly.
"Kakakaka..."
A few seconds later, bursts of transmission clicks sounded.
The men in black downstairs suddenly parted to both sides, revealing four Maxim heavy machine guns.
The muzzle of the gun was raised, already aimed at the room on the third floor.
The clicking sound was replaced by the sound of gunfire.
A large amount of powder erupted from the wall in an instant, and numerous bullet holes appeared.
"Nima!"
Xiaoyao opened his eyes and cursed loudly.
With so many of you here, I thought you were going to swarm up and start a fight?
As a result, they were directly shot with machine guns?
