Chapter 384 The Secret Tunnel of the Sea Eagle Chamber of Commerce
"Tunnel?" Hearing this, Jia Zhengjin became interested, "What kind of tunnel is it? Does the Haiying Chamber of Commerce have more private gold coins?"
"We don't know yet!" the soldier replied. "When we were carrying the Chamber of Commerce's belongings, someone accidentally touched something, and then a hole suddenly appeared in the wall. We only dared to explore near the hole, and did not dare to go too deep.
Because it’s too dark inside and you can’t see anything!”
"Don't you know how to light a torch and go in?" Jia Zhengjin asked with a frown.
"Lord Keen, here's the strange thing!" the soldier said hurriedly, "we just entered a certain distance with the torch, and the fire automatically went out for no reason! And there was also some very creepy sound. This thing
It’s too weird, we don’t dare to act rashly, so we can only come back and report!”
"Is there anything else?" Jia Zhengjin pinched his chin, "It feels a bit interesting!"
"Lord Keane, how about we interrogate Brian? He is the president of the Seahawk Chamber of Commerce and should know about the tunnel!" Albas suggested from the side.
"Yeah!" Jia Zhengjin thought it made sense, so he nodded, "Bring me here!"
"Kien, you sound so scared!" Tina said worriedly from the side, "How about we just leave it alone. Anyway, we have got the gold bricks, let's sleep one night and then go back to Holy Dragon City?"
"But I'm curious!" Jia Zhengjin turned around and said, "Otherwise, you guys should go to the arranged room to sleep first. I'll come back after I figure out what's inside the tunnel."
"Don't you want to go?" Tina looked at him nervously, "I'm a little scared."
"It doesn't matter!" Jia Zhengjin reached out and touched her face gently, "I can protect myself, and no one can catch me even if I try to escape. No matter what danger there is, I am not afraid! In this way, the three of you are in the room
Sleep well, I’ll be back later!”
"Then you should be as careful as possible and leave if you are in danger!" Tina held his hand tightly.
"Yeah!" Jia Zhengjin felt warm in his heart, "I know, don't worry!"
"Then you go early and come back early, we will wait for you!" Tina stood up on tiptoes and kissed him on the face.
"Okay!" Jia Zhengjin reached out and rubbed Tina's hair, "I promise!"
"Waiting for you to come back." Peilin followed Tina's example and came over to kiss Jia Zhengjin, and then said expressionlessly.
If we hadn't been together for a long time, it would be difficult for Jia Zhengjin to feel her heart.
"Kean, come back quickly!" Christina also kissed him and said softly.
"I just went to take a look. You made it look like you were seeing off thousands of miles away. It's too exaggerated!" Jia Zhengjin smiled and asked them to enter the city lord's mansion to rest. After they all disappeared from sight, he turned to look at Albas, "Let's go
!Go and call Brian out first and ask him to give an honest account!"
Albas immediately took Jia Zhengjin and quickly arrived at Hailongcheng Prison surrounded by soldiers.
Brian was locked up in a cell alone, with chains on his hands and feet. He was sitting in the corner with his head lowered.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, he raised his head. When he saw Jia Zhengjin and Albas, he immediately stood up and came to the cell door: "Lord Keen! General Tulitan! I am innocent and I was not involved.
Selling elves! I don’t know that those funds are his money for selling elves! You can seal up my chamber of commerce and confiscate all my assets. But you can’t imprison an innocent person! I am innocent!”
"Brian, stop acting at a time like this!" Jia Zhengjin looked at him indifferently, "Of course you know that those gold coins were obtained from selling elves, because your father, Duke Fellman, made his fortune through this. All human beings in the entire continent
The country and tens of thousands of enslaved poor elves all flowed out through your father's hands! They originally had a free and happy life, but everything was ruined by you and your son! The reason is that he wants you to
Have enough capital to marry the princess of the Cang Yan Empire! Your own qualifications are not good, so you must use this method to become a young talent with strong financial resources. Even the Cang Yan Empire, one of the four great empires, is facing Fu Ke
It is also difficult to resist the enemy's chamber of commerce! But unfortunately, if you are given a few more years, you might be able to do what you want. But fate has its way, so just accept it!"
"Lord Keen, please at least let me go!" Brian lowered his head and said, "My father's crimes cannot be imposed on me! As long as you let me go, I promise to leave Hailong City forever and never come back.
Won’t come back!”
"I will release you, but not now!" Jia Zhengjin said calmly, "Don't think that I don't know what you are thinking. Don't you just want to go to the Cangyan Empire and ask for their full help? Maybe for this money, the Cangyan Empire
I am happy to start a war in advance! But I will not let you break the current layout. After the war is over, I will let you leave naturally!"
"In this case, why are you coming to me?" Brian knew that he would not be released for the time being, and his face suddenly turned ugly.
"I want to ask you some questions!" Jia Zhengjin looked at Brian and smiled.
"I'm not interested in answering!" Brian felt unhappy and immediately returned to the bed at the end of the cell and lay down directly on it.
"Get up! Lord Keen is asking a question, and you'd better answer honestly!" Seeing his attitude, Albas frowned and said angrily.
Brian remained motionless and ignored it.
"Hey!" Jia Zhengjin reached out to stop the angry Albas and said with a smile, "Brian, what I want to ask you is, what is in the secret tunnel of the Sea Eagle Chamber of Commerce? What is your intention in preparing that secret tunnel?"
"What secret tunnel?" Brian finally responded, sitting up and looking at Jia Zhengjin with a puzzled face.
Jia Zhengjin couldn't see any flaws in his face, and it wasn't clear whether he really didn't know or pretended not to know. The main reason was that Brian's acting skills and psychological quality were so good that it was difficult to tell from the surface. And Jia Zhengjin was not a psychological expert.
, unable to tell: "It doesn't matter! Whether you tell it or not, we still have to figure out what is in this secret tunnel! This is a very simple method. You go with us, and you will lead the way for us! Don't think about it halfway.
Run away, the power of my stun gun is no joke! Don’t try to play tricks, I won’t give you any chance!”
"Why should I help you?" Brian snorted coldly, "And I really don't know any secret tunnels! The headquarters of the Seahawk Chamber of Commerce was bought by my mother from the old Count Utto. All the layout inside
Not even touched."
"Count Yutuo? Who is he?" Jia Zhengjin turned around and asked.
"Lord Keen," Albas replied hurriedly, "Count Yutto was once the military minister of our Sea Dragon City!"
"What about others? Since it is his house, he should know about the tunnel, right?" Jia Zhengjin asked.
"Count Yutuo passed away three years ago!"
"What about the people around him?" Jia Zhengjin asked with a frown.
"After Count Utto passed away, his family members also died mysteriously one after another. Now no one is left!"
Hearing what Albas said, Jia Zhengjin became even more curious. It seems that this matter is not simple!
