Monarch of Evernight
Chapter 270 consignee
Thousand nights he glanced coldly at Ma Zhong and suddenly picked up a steel nail and plunged it deep into his thigh.
In the screams of Ma Zhong, the night did not slow down: “This time, you betrayed me. Now, tell me honestly who you are, and what exactly is this shipment or deal? ”
The man said in the fastest possible terms: "I really don't know what the goods are! I was just waiting for the delivery person to come and connect me and escort me to the designated pick-up area, where there was another person in charge of the shipment. But now the place is ruined. ”
Hearing such a complicated handover procedure, he frowned at night and intuitively told him that the Core Jade book in his arms was probably not an ordinary letter.
“So who are you working for?” Thousand nights asked again.
“I belong to the Legion of the Legion of the White Eel, which is sort of a force belonging to the Pyongnan Province. ”
When I heard this answer, the thoughts of Thousand Nights were instantly interrupted.
Though nominally still present in the Empire's layout, the Pyongnan Province is in fact largely out of Empire control, one of the most heavily insurgent provinces. And the so-called Legion of White Eel, in fact, is the rebel army.
Thousands of nights did not expect Song Zining to deal with the rebels this time. In imperial law, the charge of dealing with rebels is also linked to the Dark Race.
Rebels have existed for centuries, empires have been cleared, but they have been slaughtered repeatedly, peacefully and repeatedly. In recent years, the situation on the western mainland has become even more serious, and the rebels have the potential to do so in secret, so that the Empire has had to adjust Marshal Lin Xitang to sit in the town. Even so, it is only checks and balances, but not even uprooted.
Though the Red Scorpion had come across some helpless things behind the "rebels" during his mission, he saw more of the Imperial Army being stabbed in the back by the rebels while fighting the Dark Races. So the Thousand Nights have instinctive objections to the rebels.
Thousands of nights pressed down the discomfort of the mind, thought about a few strange things about this, then looked up at the woman in black, saw her face without surprise, knew that the boneless man in front of him must have said everything.
Originally, Ma Zhong was a lieutenant colonel in the Logistics and Ordnance Department of the Legion of Baiyu, while Lord Lin, who had just spoken to him, was his top boss and a deputy minister in the Ordnance Department. The stronghold that was dropped this time was a trade line maintained by the rebels for two years that was very safe. Even as a Ma Zhong, the details of the transaction on the other side were not clear, only that it was a powerful arms dealer on Qin Lu.
As for Ma Zhong himself, although he was also directly responsible for some rebel foreign transactions, this time he was merely a contact person, and it was another Lieutenant Colonel who actually came to receive the goods.
The man's name is Chen Lu, female, about 27 and 8 years old, has been in the Pyongnan Province for 10 years. Her rank is not very high, but she is a technical officer responsible for purchasing and maintaining a dedicated array of force guns, which is quite an important position.
Therefore, after the accident, Ma Zhongzhong still had little hope that perhaps the rebels would send someone to rescue him.
Thousand Nights heard this place, turned around and asked the woman in black, “Did Chen Lu fall into your hands too? ”
“After that stronghold, all the live animals were taken away from Headquarters.” The woman in black said, adding, "It's been three or four days, they should have said what they should and shouldn't have said. ”
Looking at the woman in black, she gradually regained her calm face and smiled unexpectedly, "But that's it, you still don't know who I am and what I brought. So, as soon as I'm gone, this doesn't exist? ”
The woman in black replied with a melancholy smile, and this time her expression was naturally much more vivid, "You are powerful, but you cannot fight the whole ghost line. Needless to say, the head of our region is a warlord. You're so young and powerful and you have a great future, so give it up! ”
Thousand nights laughed again, and he seemed a little moved, turning his eyes to Ma Zhong. Ma Zhongzhong heard the two people talking and began to show fear on his face, opening his mouth to say what he wanted to say.
However, he was taken a step forward by the thousand nights and said, "But I'm still a little upset. For example, Ma Zhong, although he said he didn't know the details of the transaction, keeping it was always a hassle. ”
The woman in black hesitated to say, "Although the employer is the one who wants him alive, it doesn't matter if he can't squeeze anything out of his mouth anymore. ”
In order to protect herself, the woman in black has been trying to tell Myung-chul to protect herself from the ground floor lobby and let go, so she repeatedly expressly and implies that Ghostbusters do not even know the origin and identity of the thousand nights. At this time, she finally sees the tone of a thousand nights loose. Where can she accommodate the demands of her client? In contrast, of course, her own life is more important now.
But Ma Zhong was appalled. For the first time he heard of Ghost Soil's client, he actually pointed out that he wanted to live, and what broke his heart was that the mysterious courier who had passed through Ghost Soil and surrounded himself wanted to kill him!
“No, don't! You can't!” Ma Zhong shouted.
The gaze of a thousand nights swept across Ma Zhong without any temperature and looked at the latter as initiating a tremor, “Now that this line of trade has been broken, or because of your incompetence, it is better to cut it off. ”
“And I know a secret!” Ma Zhong shouted, “Save me, this secret is definitely worth it! ”
"Oh? Tell me about it. ”
Ma Zhong's mood has risen and fallen so many times, he has begun to breathe, "... let me down first. ”
The unknown light flashed in his eyes for a thousand nights, and he simply pulled the steel nail out of Ma Zhong's wrist with his bare hands.
Ma Zhongzheng fell to the ground and gasped for a while before he said: “Chen Lu is from the Song Valve, and it is even possible that her original last name was Song. ”
Suddenly something flashed in his mind, almost impossible to grasp, but he had become acutely aware that the accident was by no means purely profitable. That is, Ghost Soil's client not only wants to hack the shipment black, but there are other purposes behind it.
Perhaps the key to this is the dual identity of Ma Zhongkou.
“Song Valve?” Thousands of nights picked eyebrows and looked at the woman in black.
The woman in black touched the gaze of a thousand nights, her face grew pale and her eyes were more afraid than before. She was also the first to hear about it, and as a member of the Ghost Soil assassin, she knew very well that this mystery, especially involving such a huge thing as the Song Valve, was absolutely a testament.
Ma Zhong's eyes stared at the night like a drowning man searching for a floating tree.
He couldn't see any expression from the face of the thousand nights. Fearing not to be believed, he nodded desperately: “That's the Song Valve, absolutely right! I accidentally saw Chen Lu hanging out with a man who I met in Donglu a long time ago and was a manager of the Song Valve. Then I followed her twice, and one of them heard a few conversations. There's no mistake! ”
The message contains complex and broad implications. The Song Valve is one of the four main valves, the central force of the imperial nobility, and certainly stands in the same position as the rebels.
Since Chen Lu is the dark line placed in the rebels by the Song Valve, if her identity is revealed, it is the scourge of killing herself. For Song Valve, in addition to losing an informant, he may also be touched by Shundo, destroying some related people and things.
However, it is not that simple. Now it is almost certain that Song Zining is using this line to make deals with the rebels. Then, if anything happens, it is a crime of collaborating with the enemy.
Thousand Nights faintly said: “The news is worth a fortune, at least let her do something.” If Ma Zhong were to blackmail him, there is a good chance that he would reap some benefits from Chen Lu.
Ma Zhong hesitated and drowned, "I did think so, but... it's not too late. ”
Thousand Nights suddenly asked, "Who did you sell her to? ”
Ma Zhong responded reflexively: “I didn't!” Then, as if he remembered something, his pupils contracted, revealing a very frightening look.
Thousand Nights said that Ma Zhong thought at this time, "So why should the ghost client keep you alive? ”
If the target of the robbers was only this shipment, after catching the real consignee, Ma Zhong, an intermediary who knew nothing, would be of no value, and there would be no aftermath if he killed it directly. Now that the other party has named him alive, it is clearly his intention to keep him as a witness. So what Ma Zhong can testify against is his colleague, Lieutenant Colonel Chen Lu.
Ma Zhong's face changed, his eyes flashed, his mouth moved, but he didn't make a sound. However, when he was still hesitant, he suddenly felt a cold throat and immediately unconscious.
“What are you doing!” The woman in black was shaking all over her body and her voice couldn't help but lift high, as if she would scream the next moment.
She saw the knife pulled out at night and cut Ma Zhong's throat directly. A woman in black is not a little girl who hasn't seen blood before, but at night that seems stable enough never to deviate a millimetre, just to keep her from the chestnuts.
“This kind of person, anyone can sell, what to keep.” The tone of the thousand nights is still flat, but my heart is trying to suppress a burst of irritability.
At this moment, Ma Zhong is completely uninterested in pursuing what Ma Zhong has done or hasn't done, the cause is no longer important.
It is obvious that Song Zining's deal has been exposed and the worst case scenario is that the person behind the scenes is not content with taking off the deal line and is also busting a witness. That means Song Zining himself is in danger.
Take a deep breath at night, lift your eyes and look at the woman in black, "Tell me where your regional headquarters are. ”
“You can't fight ghosts!” The woman in black wants to fight for more.
Deep red teeth jumped at the tip of his fingers at night, his handsome face half hidden in the shadow of a dim light, “There is a man alive in the lobby, there is a man upstairs who has a breath left, and he looks taller than you. ”
