Chapter 1264 Smuggling and Stowaway
Chapter 1264 Smuggling and Stowaway
After Buyetian Huoxing proved himself firmly, the Turbine Gang members immediately stopped what they were doing, surrounded Buyetian Huoxing and Lin Yu, and a large group of people respectfully escorted the two to the second floor of the factory.
Although the Fairy Queen's messengers were usually just corpses and there shouldn't be any living people, bringing Lin Yu with her this time was theoretically "unconventional"...
But in the outer city, no one dared to question the Fairy Queen's decision.
Soon, Huo Xing and Lin Yu, with their heads shaking, were surrounded by members of the Turbine Gang and arrived at the door of an office-like room on the second floor.
A member of the Turbine Gang opened the door for the two of them, and then Lin Yu saw the boss of the Turbine Gang standing respectfully behind the door.
The mighty man with metal mechanical arms faced the door and bowed ninety degrees in a standard manner.
"Welcome to the Fairy Queen for guidance! What instructions do you have?"
Although the members of the Turbine Gang attach great importance to and respect the Nevernight Fire Apricot, it is all within a reasonable range.
However, the way the Turbine Gang boss greeted Huo Xing from the Buyetian Sky definitely exceeded the normal range of respect and could almost be described as a servile attitude.
However, Buyetian Huoxing was used to it. She closed the door and sat on the sofa with her head shaking.
"Last week, you helped 'Folpolo' sneak out of the city, right?"
Huo Xing from Buyetian asked in a broken voice.
"Yes, Lady Fairy Queen," the Turbine Gang leader didn't take a seat, but instead knelt before Nevernight Huo Xing and began to report on his work. "I reported this matter to you immediately, and after receiving your approval, I personally led him out of the city through the loophole at the D-7 checkpoint."
As the Turbine Gang leader spoke, Buyetian Huoxing pointed at Lin Yu who was standing next to him.
"Tell this man, my friend, in detail what happened, the whole course of that day—and don't hold anything back."
"Tell us everything you saw and heard, no matter how big or small!"
As Huo Xing of Buyetian said this, the leader of the Turbine Gang said "yes" without any hesitation, then moved his knees and turned to face Lin Yu.
"My dear friend, I got up that morning and brushed my teeth. I saw in the mirror that my beard was a little messy, so I spent ten minutes trimming it. After trimming it, I planned to go to Kuku Bakery to buy some fried bread slices for breakfast..."
"Ho-"
Huo Xing from Buyetian listened to the other party start to speak like a primary school student's diary, and she was so angry that her throat leaked and she interrupted the other party.
"No need to go into so much detail, just get to the point! Just the part about 'Folporo'!"
As Huo Xing from Buyetian said this, the leader of the Turbine Gang nodded.
"I see... Mr. Forbollo arrived at our site before lunch this morning. Since we manufacture power parts, we're familiar with many illegal taxi drivers from out of town. So, he was brought here by one of them. They came all the way here specifically to find out how to leave the city, and that's when they were brought here."
"Mr. Forbolo was wearing an expensive uniform and a gray hat. He didn't come alone. He was accompanied by a man about my age who looked very serious and stern. He kept expressing his undisguised disgust for us gang members, but he didn't engage in direct conflict with us."
When Lin Yu heard this, he realized that these were most likely Forbolo and Gao Shan.
Before leaving the city, Gao Shan had not been killed, and the two men were still acting in groups of two.
So he asked.
"So, do you know why Forboluo wanted to sneak out of the Nightless City and go to the Great Wilderness?"
The Turbine Gang leader looked at Buyetian Huoxing, who crossed his arms over his chest and said, "Why are you looking at me? Answer him."
"When he asks questions, I ask questions."
The Turbine Gang leader finally nodded. "Yes, Fairy Queen—it's like this. In principle, we don't usually ask our clients why they leave the city, but…"
"but?"
Lin Yu followed up the conversation and asked.
The Turbine Gang leader spoke sheepishly, "But Mr. Forboluo was very enthusiastic. He kept chatting with me while we were arranging the vehicles, and he even mentioned the purpose of his visit to the Great Wasteland. Although I didn't specifically inquire, so I don't know the specifics, it sounds like Mr. Forboluo is planning to deliver some alchemical items to the Great Wasteland tribe... Providing alchemical items to the Great Wasteland people is an unforgivable and extremely serious crime, far more serious than our unauthorized production of these power parts, so I didn't dare to delve into it further."
"But think about it, it makes sense. After all, Mr. Forboluo is in a high position of power. If he didn't have a special need, and it clearly violated the laws of the City That Never Sleeps and the Articles of Association of the Truth Company, why would he need to sneak across the border? If he wanted to go to the Great Wilderness, he could just apply for a pioneering team himself. A permit that ordinary people couldn't obtain would certainly not be a problem for Mr. Forboluo."
"Plus, there's a loophole at checkpoint D-7. The detection gate in one passage is insensitive. Not only can it not detect active life forms, but it also fails to detect alchemical items. Therefore, theoretically, smuggling can be carried out there while smuggling is taking place. We can still carry out this business as usual."
"After that, no other accidents occurred. We simply found a partner, a truck driver outsourced by a subsidiary of the Shenli Group, and an old friend who helped the Shenli Group transport alchemical materials from the Great Wilderness. We had Mr. Forbollo and the gentleman he was traveling with hide in the empty alchemical material box in his car when we left the city. When we arrived at our destination, we opened the box, slowed down, and they jumped out and left on their own."
"That was pretty much the whole process - other than that, there wasn't anything else that really stuck with me. Everything was pretty normal."
The Turbine Gang leader recalled and Lin Yu nodded.
He had already determined that this was probably the mission of Gao Shan and Fu Luo's previous [copy].
The condition for two people to pass the level is most likely to hand over some alchemical items to a certain wilderness tribe.
This is also in line with the style of "Death Game".
"I see—so, Forbolo hasn't mentioned anything else special."
"For example, the third person who was supposed to be traveling with them?"
Lin Yu asked tentatively.
After all, when Fu Luo and Gao Shan left the City That Never Sleeps, it was probably in the middle or late stages of their [copy] process.
So, even though they are still operating as a duo, they may have already come into contact with the murderer!
