Chapter 104 Patrol Knight (210)

"wife, I'm back" "Damn, the child is still there!" "Hey, wait until night, night!"

"Boss, we really don't charge protection fees? With so much money, I'm so jealous..." "Stupid, that's a worker hired by Lord Viscount himself. If you dare to do it, your neck will be hot!"

"Hey, the price of chicken has increased again. The chicken farm was blown up last year. No matter how much the subsidy is, it is impossible to make it out of nothing." "How about we also increase the price?" "How is it possible, the city hall said to stabilize prices..." "Then let's go get the subsidy!" "Stupid woman, why is it the turn of small traders like us to get the subsidy..."

"Uncle went out to have dinner with friends today, and I think he will come back very late, just the two of us, what do you want to eat?" "I want to eat, berry stew! Brother, good!" "Don't use overlapping words, and, wait I will remember to wash my hands and not eat with hands that have been playing with ants all day."

"It is almost impossible to reproduce this new type of alchemy cannon with our workshop in Port Harrison. Its main structure is a pressurized structure, and the strength of the core parts is close to that of polycrystalline black steel mithril-based alloy. , is a brand new sublimation alloy, we can't reproduce it..." "Then reduce the power and try it with high-carbon steel. If it really doesn't work, I will apply for ten grams of fine gold from Lord Viscount."

"The natives are too stable recently..." "Do you still want to fight?" "That's not what I mean, I'm afraid they'll start a new job, I don't feel at ease." "Plant your sugar cane, this kind of thing, ah, turn Don't worry about us farmers!"

Various sounds.

Thoughts one by one.

Different positions, different ideas, different classes.

Different choices, different attitudes, different emotions.

Ordinary people can only hear one kind, insist on one kind, and think about one kind.

But the patrol envoy of the empire, the inspector from the imperial capital, [Wigs of the Flowing Sound], can hear everything.

"Well, Port Harrison has been at odds with the aboriginals for many years. The Grant family's rule here is deeply rooted, authoritative, and very stable... and has defeated the aboriginals a while ago. It is estimated that it will be very peaceful within ten years."

"However, the basic materials in Harrison Port are insufficient, the food abundance is also defective, and local officials have also experienced corruption and bribery. This is the norm in the border areas of the empire."

"Are you actually planning to copy the latest generation of the empire's alchemy artillery? Although the hard power is definitely not enough, using high-carbon steel, fine gold and heavy iron alloys is also a way out. It seems that the alchemy level of Harrison Port should not be underestimated."

"Start to promote the cultivation of sugar cane... Well, the climate in Harrison Port is indeed quite suitable, and it is also an option."

The knight closed his eyes tightly, but it was faintly visible. There was a faint gleam flickering in his eye sockets, as if originating from the depths of his head, body and soul.

Continuing to listen to the echoing voices from the 'imprints', Weggs whispered to himself: "Elan and Ian...is that the name of those two children? A very ordinary family, this White Minling The capable person is very mature, it seems that he is the head of the family, and the uncle who doesn't come home in the middle of the night and goes out to drink seems to be eating and drinking."

"I heard that I used to smoke black mushrooms, but I quit in the past two years... probably because I was afraid of my nephew, and the local elders ordered me not to influence my nephew."

"It's not surprising, the family environment of psykers has always been harsh."

The knight laughed at himself, and continued to listen carefully, paying attention: "Oh? I'm teaching my younger brother math...I'm also reciting the content of the inscription, really diligent."

"Well, life is very regular, very self-control, very smart... At least this is indeed an achievement. If Lord Viscount is not bragging, then he really produced a genius here who can enter the Royal Academy of Alchemy."

Listen to end.

Weggs opened his eyes, and there was a light white gleam in the dark green eyes.

He breathed a sigh of relief: "Let's just write the report like this, Harrison Port is considered qualified."

"The work is over...the next thing is business."

The knight got up. He stood on the reef, looking at the sea in the distance. The psychic light in his eyes gradually dimmed, revealing those deep green eyes: "Teacheryou must have been back here."

He muttered to himself: "Where are you?"

Late at night.

When Hilliard was about to return home, he saw a coded sign at the door.

This is an agreement between him and Ian, which represents a signal of vigilance.

"Oh?"

Squinting his eyes, recalling the recent rumors about Harrison Port, the old knight already knew something.

He quietly came to the courtyard and found that Ian was sitting on a logging stake practicing breathing guidance.

"Teacher, there are sublimators of the second energy level who monitor us with psionic energy."

Noticing Hilliard's arrival, Ian stood up gently, motioned for the old knight to bend down and bowed his head, and whispered in the other's ear: "He has the ability to monitor, teacher, you can pretend to go out to drink and come back, whatever you want It's okay to find a reason, we may need to perform a show recently..."

Ian talked about his own handling methods and the script he had thought up before, and Hilliard nodded slightly: "Well, very good."

He patted Ian on the shoulder and agreed: "Very good, Ian, if it weren't for you, I might be exposed today."

"what?"

Ian was a little puzzled: "Exposed? At most, I think our family is a bit strange. Teacher, do you come home later?"

"Osenna is not a family-friendly character, isn't he so particular?"

"Do not."

But Hilliard shook his head, and he said solemnly: "This time, I think it should be an acquaintance of mine who used psychic power to monitor Elan. If I don't act in advance, I'm afraid I will be exposed soon. "

"The inspector of the empire... that is his dream, and now that the dream has come true, I don't know whether it is good or bad..."

The old knight was silent for a while, and then sighed softly: "He came to Port Harrison, certainly not just to complete the work of the empirehe came after me."

A former acquaintance of the teacher, but a current enemy...

Ian was thoughtful, but he was not surprised by this.

It would be better to say that as my teacher, the most wanted criminal in the empire, it would be strange for someone to chase after him after two years.

Now it seems that the other party should still be just suspicious. While collecting information in his spare time, he is not 100% sure that Hilliard is in Port Harrison, and it is not clear whether Hilliard is hiding in a corner or hiding his life. Wandering in the mountains.

Even if the other party has the ability to easily collect all kinds of information, it is impossible to quickly dispel these doubts.

And this doubt will inflate over time, until disappointment.

"In other words, it only needs to be delayed long enough, and with the end of the job of the patrol envoy, will he leave by himself?"

The young man said so to himself.
