Chapter 99
The team in the garrison failed to find the "murderer" they wanted in the inn. Just like when they came, they left without any hello and said nothing.
Lisa immediately sealed up everything in the warehouse, and all the managers in the inn gathered together to interrogate them one by one if they had smuggled contraband.
This process lasted for quite a while.
Until the sun sets west, Zhu Jue still didn't wait for Lisanna's return.
On the contrary, the Earl of Ultraland sent someone to send another invitation letter. This time the invitation was no longer a gentleman. They seemed to have known that the Shuojin Chamber of Commerce changed hands, so even the names in the invitation letter were changed.
What else can be done?
Go!
There were two hours left before the cocktail party, and Zhu Jue finally made a decision.
"President, this is the loosest clothes you bought according to your requirements. I wonder if it suits you?"
Holding a black formal outfit in his hand, the servants from the Chamber of Commerce bowed to him and asked Zhu Jue for his opinion humbly.
At this time, Zhu Jue was being tricked by several people. He didn't know that the world was so exquisite, because he was the president of the Shuojin Chamber of Commerce, he had to redecorate it from head to toe when attending the banquet. Naturally, the original cheap clothing was not allowed to be on the table.
"Whatever you want, you guys finish it for me quickly."
Zhu Jue was too lazy to pick on anything at this time. He opened his arms and posed in a "front-face" posture, which was still fiddled with by the servants.
However, the facts prove that these people were specially recruited by the Chamber of Commerce to take care of him. After all, they were capable. Zhu Jue had a very good figure and was born with a clothes rack. His temperament, which was originally a bit "sloppy" and immediately turned into a unique sense of chic under the black formal wear and silk top hat.
Just when Lisanna finished handling what was on hand and was about to give her a reward, she saw a "funny man" holding a skewer in her hand and kicking a stone on tiptoe.
The orange-red sunset light made half of his cheeks red, and the black formal outfit turned into a half-red and half-black dress with a dramatic style.
The person next to Zhu Jue who had been styling for more than half an hour was covering his face and hitting his head against the wall. Several young girls passed by and laughed all the way for the incongruous scene.
"I'm waiting for you, have you found out?"
Noting Lisanna's arrival, Zhu Jue stopped, raised his hand to grab the stone, and when he let go, there was only a pile of stone chips.
"Whether it is the accounts in the station or the managers of various departments, I have checked them. The contraband does exist, but they are all default private goods. With our relationship with the government here, these things are not worthy of such a large-scale search."
The eyes floated with the stone chips, but Lisana's report kept going.
"The situation this time is a bit strange. I asked the administrator here. He said that he did not receive any notice from our 'friends' in the garrison in advance, which means that this was a surprise inspection. The sheriff of the garrison who took the lead just now was very close to the Earl of Alterland on weekdays..."
"I understand, you can go back and prepare first, and you will have to go to a cocktail party later."
Before Lisanna could finish her words, Zhu Jue interrupted her first, waved her hand, and walked forward on her own. The former was stunned for a few seconds, looking up and wanted to say something, but found that Zhu Jue's eyes were not on her at this time, but turned into the distance.
Following Zhu Jue's gaze, I saw a man walking towards this side at the end of the street.
A wooden mask, a loose robe, holding this moderately sized wooden barrel in his hand.
Although the two sides were still dozens of meters apart, Lisana still had some strange premonition that the other party came for the Shuojin Chamber of Commerce!
The same feeling arose in Zhu Jue's mind. As the new president, of course he has to stand out, not to mention that the other party is still a "acquaintance", even if he only met once in the morning.
It’s time to be reborn, and it’s time to be reborn.
On the other hand, Loberin also noticed Zhu Jue at the door of Shuojin Chamber of Commerce. He was also impressed by this man who had only met for one time.
"Wearing formal clothes and silk top hats, it seems that he is going to go to the banquet. Standing at the door of the Shuojin Chamber of Commerce, he is here to purchase things... No, his target is me!"
With such an idea in mind, Loberin kept walking and finally found the location of the scorching box. He would take it into his hand no matter what!
The two of them walked forward and met in the middle of the street.
The sunset is in the distance, and there are crowds coming and going nearby, and it is so noisy.
"Are you looking for me?"
Zhu Jue turned the signature of the mutton skewers in his hand and asked first.
"No, I'll look for the president of Shuojin Chamber of Commerce."
It took him a lot of effort to ask for information from those dream eaters, but fortunately he also locked in the target. Now when he met Zhu Jue, Loberin said it very simply. He didn't want to bother with Zhu Jue because he had more important things to do now.
But the problem is that the person he doesn't want to bother is the person he has to bother.
"Oh...you know, the president of Shuojin Chamber of Commerce has been replaced recently."
Zhu Jue pursed his lips and said with a strange expression.
"I don't care who it is, I just want to borrow something from him."
“What to borrow?”
"You don't have to know. Now get out of here, I don't have time to waste it on you."
Looking at Zhu Jue with some vigilant eyes, Loberin frowned. He didn't understand why the person in front of him was entangled with him.
Yes, he now doubted whether the encounter on the beach this morning was accidental or the inevitable arrangement of the guy in front of him.
"Okay, since you insist."
He turned sideways and took a step toward the side, watching Lobelin walk towards the Shuojin Chamber of Commerce.
As expected, Lisana met him. Without saying a few words, the former cast a surprised look at Zhu Jue, then turned back, spread her hands and said a few words to Lobelin.
So the latter went back to Zhujue with a dark face...
"I am the new president of Shuojin Chamber of Commerce, so I ask you what you want to borrow."
Before Lobelin could speak, Zhu Jue explained first.
"I want the scorching box."
Loberin's answer became simpler.
"no."
Zhu Jue's rejection was even shorter. He didn't expect the other party to make this request, waved to Lisanna's direction and asked her to come over.
"Hey, you told me before that the Boiler of the Scarlet Box is a secret in our hands, but I've only been to the Dilas Harbor for a day, and two people who know the news came out. Are you sure this is a secret?"
"Sorry, President...he came to snatch the scorching box too?"
"It took me three years to find a solution to the trouble, and another two years to find where the trouble can be solved. I don't want to hear the rejection from anyone's mouth, the scorching box, I have to get it!"
Loberin did not give Lisana a chance to continue speaking, and stood forward, the tone of his words and the momentum that appeared on his body showed his determination.
Zhu Jue raised his hand and pressed Lisanna's shoulder with a surprised face, dragged her behind her, and also took a step forward, looking straight at the gray eyes under the wooden mask, with no smile on his face: "Sorry, I don't care that you have been looking for the hot box for a few years. Now that is my thing. If you can help me open it, maybe I can lend you 3 to 5 minutes..."
"3 minutes is enough!"
Before Zhu Jue could finish his harsh words, Lobelin took over the conversation and said.
"ha?"
Really borrowed?
Chapter completed!
