2536 Trustworthy
The car was still moving forward. V8 looked at the desolate surroundings and said in a tense voice, “This place used to be quite lively. In 1997, there was a huge commotion and this place was bombed into ruins. It has been so many years, but it has still maintained its original appearance.”
“It’s normal. There’s always internal strife. Who will rebuild the people’s homes?” Z7 said coldly. “Survival and escape are the things that occupy the center of life. Rebuilding your home is something you only desire in your heart.”
Normally, Ye Jian didn’t participate in such topics. It was too heavy.
“Q King, do you see that small building in front? Let’s go there first.” G3’s voice came from the front. From the headlights, Xia Jinyuan saw a building that was almost flattened by a cannonball. “Roger that.”
!!
Lin Feng drove the jeep directly to the small building and circled around it before stopping.
He walked to Xia Jinyuan who had already gotten out of the car. “My partner is already waiting over there. Let’s go and meet him.”
Xia Jinyuan looked around and asked him, “Everyone?”
“No, you can just bring a few.” Lin Feng trusted his partner, but Xia Jinyuan might not.
Hearing that, he said, “V8, get down.” Then, he patted Ye Jian’s shoulder. “Stay in the car. I’ll go with Mountain Eagle.”
The engine and lights of the car were turned off. Ye Jian didn’t get into the car. Instead, she leaned against the door and held a pistol in her hand. She could shoot at any time.
At the east corner of the small building, Lin Feng saw his partner and said to Xia Jinyuan, “Over there. Trust me, he’s a trustworthy partner!”
Xia Jinyuan followed Lin Feng’s finger and looked over. It was a tall and skinny figure. He couldn’t tell what he looked like. There was no light. He could only see the silhouette.
After walking closer, Lin Feng shone his lighter for a few seconds. Xia Jinyuan saw that it was a local black man. There was a long scar on his forehead and a gray turban hung around his neck. He was wearing a linen shirt that didn’t seem to fit him well. It was too tight, and the buttons on his chest were unbuttoned.
When the scarred man saw Lin Feng, a smile appeared on his gloomy face. The fire was extinguished, then his smile disappeared.
His gaze had already landed on Xia Jinyuan. Lin Feng introduced, “This is a friend of mine. He’s trustworthy. It’s alright!” Then, he pointed at the scarred man and said to Xia Jinyuan, “This is Spat. I’ve gotten a lot of information through him. Spat was the one who told me about the Bonant Guards.”
Xia Jinyuan could smell the stench of seawater from Spat before hearing Lin Feng’s introduction.
This was a person who lived on the sea for many years. One could call him Pirate Spat.
Xia Jinyuan stretched out his right hand and greeted him, “Hello.”
“Hello.” Spat reached out his hand and shook it for a moment before letting go immediately. He communicated with Lin Feng in Masolian.
“Spat said that around four o’clock in the afternoon, more than ten people from the Bonant Guards pulled a huge wooden cabinet into the underground auction house in Andiken. The guards are all from the Bonant Guards. Even the people from Andiken aren’t allowed to approach. As for what’s in the wooden cabinet, Spat doesn’t know.”
Lin Feng translated everything Spat said to him just now. His tense face turned a little serious. “Just now, you said that you were looking for the Andiken Auction House. In that case, the thing in the wooden cabinet might be… the thing you’re looking for.”
