Chapter 160(1/2)
Lloyd asked: "Miss Ge**, does Black Moon plan to buy the old site of Lubache?"
"Yes, I heard that they plan to buy it together with the warehouse. If Black Moon can successfully acquire this place, it will be equivalent to completely controlling Crossbell's underground world."
"At that time, the situation may be very troublesome."
Lloyd: "I feel the same way. After all, we were just here to collect information, but we didn't expect to encounter such a major scene."
"Yes, it's best to report this matter to Yi Ke as well." Ellie said.
Ge** said: "Huh? Aren't you here to investigate the Black Moon matter? Are you investigating other matters?"
"Well..." Lloyd said, "Actually, we are searching for someone you have met, Ms. G**."
"It's the man named Lecter who defeated the miner in Baruka."
"Oh, it's him. I just met that person in the hotel not long ago." Ge** said.
"Really!"
"Yes, he was wearing his usual vacation outfit and was having a leisurely meal inside." Ge** said, "I was in a hurry to come here to show off my talents, so I didn't say hello to him."
"Yes, I can't stand here stupidly." Ge** said: "At least I have to dig out some useful information from the branch chief."
"I'm leaving now. Let's have dinner together next time."
After she finished speaking, she turned and left.
"It's still the same," said Lloyd.
"After all, here you can witness such important information." Waji said.
"Yes, let's put this matter aside for now and go to the restaurant now."
The four of them left the back street and came to East Street.
On the way, we first went to the Guerrilla Association.
Receptionist Michelle: "Oh, it's you."
"Mr. Michel, long time no see." Lloyd said.
"Haha, long time no see. Thank you for your help during the operation in Altair City."
"Thank you. Actually, most of it is due to Mr. Arios and Dudley." Lloyd said.
"Haha, Mr. Michelle is also very energetic." Ellie said.
"Haha, it goes without saying, but since Estelle and Joshua left, it has become busier."
Lloyd: "As expected."
El: 'But Mr. Os and other guerrillas have successfully filled in the peacocks they left, right?'
"Ha, after all, everyone has corrected the shortage of manpower." Michelle said, "Finally, we can still share the work."
"Guerrillas are really people's partners. No matter how busy they are, they will never flinch or complain," Vaji said.
"Exactly, but you have also done a good job, and now you have gained the trust of many people... Oh, could it be these two children?"
"Well, a new member of the support department." Lloyd said.
"I'm El, please take care of me."
"Waji, just state your name and don't need to say anything else, right?" Waji said.
"Haha, it seems that you have gathered very interesting partners. I didn't expect that even the leader of the Covenant Alliance has joined the support department."
Michelle said: "Anyway, it's a good thing that the support department can resume work. If we encounter special circumstances in the future, we may need your help."
"Of course." Lloyd chuckled: "Although we have different positions, we should assist each other and work together."
"Haha, compared to the first time we met, your expression is even better, so please take good care of me in the future."
After leaving the Guerrilla Association branch, we came to the hotel.
"Mr. Rector, you are actually here."
Rector was in the hotel kitchen, discussing cooking with the chef.
"Oh, you are so slow. I have been waiting for you for a long time, my dear friends."
Rector laughed enthusiastically, as if everyone was really good friends who had known each other for many years.
"well?"
"Boss, these are the friends I just mentioned. They are very motivated and perseverant. Please don't be polite and just train them!"
Rector said to the boss seriously.
"No problem, leave it to me. It's a bit troublesome to have four people here at once, but I'm happy that Oriental cuisine can be spread."
"Okay, come here and study hard."
"Ha, what are you talking about?" Ellie said.
Then Rector took the opportunity and ran away quickly.
"It's still the same," Vaggie said.
"We must, we must catch up quickly!" Ellie said.
"Hey, where do you want to go? The cooking training is about to start, so cheer up."
Lloyd: "No, you misunderstood."
"Ah, since we made a mistake, there's nothing we can do about it, but it's still fate. You can take this and go."
After saying that, the boss gave a recipe book to Lloyd and the others.
"Thank you, we will study hard." Lloyd said.
"Okay, hurry up and chase Lecter."
When he came out of the hotel, Lector ran so fast and disappeared completely.
"No one can be found." El said: "It's like they expected us to come and deliberately designed that kind of trap."
"Methods of that level are nothing to him, and he deserves to be the one who has the information." Ellie said. "
"Haha, but what he did is really not like a remarkable person. What should we do next and give up?" Waji asked.
"No, let's continue chasing and ask the people around us. Maybe we can get a lot of clues." Lloyd said.
Start searching and asking.
The first one was to ask the fish shop owner, but he didn't know.
"Well, you don't need fish. After all, I haven't seen those people from the Diao Gongshi Group recently. You know where they are."
The second fruit shop owner didn't know either.
"Oh, my fruit is delicious."
"Oh, our store sells windmills."
"Did you see anyone in casual clothes?"
"No, I am sorry."
At this time, a child asked.
"The man you mentioned with red hair and casual vacation clothes ran to the central square and said that youth means running as hard as you can."
"I always think that guy is very undisciplined," Ellie said.
Arriving at the Central Square, I finally found out that Rector was on the rooftop of Times Department Store.
When we got to the top of the building, we saw him standing on the fence looking at the scenery.
After noticing the arrival of the four people, Rector said, "Oh, by the way, Crossbell is really a confusing place."
Lloyd said: "I understand what you want to say."
"That building is the Orchid Tower, with a height of 50 meters and a total of forty floors. It is currently the tallest super high-rise skyscraper in the entire continent."
Ellie said: "There will be many important office locations arranged in it in the future."
El: "It's really amazing. Looking at it from such a long distance, it still looks so huge."
Vaggie: "Haha, it's still covered with a curtain, doesn't it mean it's completely completed?"
Lloyd said: "Well, many important departments are working there, but it seems that it will not be revealed until it is officially announced."
"Oh, that Dieter is really a very powerful person." Rector said.
"We want to ask you a few questions from the perspective of the Support Section, Mr. Rector. We want to confirm your identity and ask for your cooperation."
"So serious, what if I refuse?"
Ellie said: "Although we have no binding force on you people, the premise is that the other party has revealed his identity."
Waji said: 'If the other party does not identify themselves, we can exercise our investigative powers like ordinary people, that's what it means.'
"Oh, here's a trick." Rector said: "I have no choice but to obey. It's pretty good. My identity is..."
"Huh?" Suddenly he stopped and looked at a building.
"There was a dark shadow in that place just now. After I saw it, it flashed away," Rector said.
Ellie said: "Can it be said that it is?"
