As soon as he finished speaking, Shang Jianyao suddenly jumped up and rushed over.

Then, with the help of a chair, Shang Jianyao jumped up and grabbed the baffles on both sides of the vent.

This scared Veyer back into the body, back a long distance.

He asked in a very angry voice:

"What do you want to do?"

Shang Jian Yao raised his head and said with a smile:

"Catch you, tie you up, and beg you."

"..." Veyer frowned and looked at this guy, unable to understand the logic of this.

Regarding the interaction between the two, Jiang Baimian and the others had no intention of stopping it, and seemed happy to see it succeed.

Veyer quickly backed away, and didn't stop until he was about to enter another section of the ventilation duct.

He looked at the entrance where the light came in, hesitated for a moment, and said loudly:

"The guards of the 'Underground Ark' mentioned one thing while chatting:

"DiMarco is a very cruel man. No matter what mistakes the servants make, as long as they are hit or found by him, they will be executed. Sometimes, when he is in a bad mood, even if he has made no mistakes, he will be killed. die."

Hearing this information, Jiang Baimian frowned slightly, and at the same time solved a previous doubt:

Why does the "Underground Ark" buy and train servants on a regular basis?

With the scale shown by the "underground ark", it is enough to get a group of servants in every ten or eight years.

Because of DiMarco's brutality, the servants have an alarming attrition rate and need to be replenished regularly?While Jiang Baimian was thinking, he signaled Shang Jianyao to come down.

Then she asked through the vent:

"Where are the bodies of the dead servants?"

It is impossible for so many corpses to be piled up in the cold storage of the "underground ark", right?

Veyer's voice echoed in the ventilation duct:

"'Underground Ark' has an exit on the side of the mountain, and the corpses seem to be buried near there."

One more exit is equal to one more entrance... Jiang Baimian was about to continue to ask, when Veyer shouted again:

"That's all I know, it's cheap for you!"

His voice faded away, as if he had been transferred to another place with the help of the ventilation duct.

The "Old Tune Group" looked at each other, waited for a while, and finally waited for the warning Song He to come back.

Song He said without much change in expression:

"I have interviewed all three of Mr. DiMarco's butlers, and it is preliminarily confirmed that they have not disclosed Bishop Renato's affairs to the murlocs and the trolls.

"As for the entire 'Underground Ark', apart from them, only Mr. DiMarco knew about it. As for whether Mr. DiMarco told anyone else, they don't know."

Jiang Baimian thought about it and said:

"Can I have a video call with Mr. DiMarco?"

"No." Song He shook his head, "Unless a new bishop arrives."

This made the "Old Tune Group" a little disappointed, and could only turn to check other people on the list.

By noon, they returned to the hotel camp to cook a meal with the ingredients they had bought.

When they were busy, Lehman, a smuggler from "United Industries", visited them again.

The businessman, who looked like a Red River farmer and had an obvious rosacea, rubbed his hands, and said in a broken gray dialect with a little embarrassment:

"I heard from my friend that you seem to be investigating DiMarco from the 'Underground Ark'?"

"It's a mission we took on earlier that has something to do with Mr. DiMarco." Jiang Baimian replied very tightly.

Lehman showed a little smile and said:

"Maybe you don't know, the thing I want to entrust you is also related to the 'Underground Ark'."

Chapter 118

Hearing Lehman's words, Jiang Baimian, who was wearing a mask, laughed:

"What a coincidence."

After a pause, she added:

"I thought your commission was related to 'United Industries' and we needed to go elsewhere."

Seeing the kindness shown by this team of mysterious relic hunters, Lehman smiled and said:

"I also have a number of commissions related to 'United Industries,' if you will."

Shang Jian Yao asked enthusiastically:

"Anything?"

Isn't this a polite remark... Lehman was momentarily at a loss for words.

Regarding the affairs of "United Industries", he has always believed that good skills are not as good as good relationships.

Jiang Baimian laughed secretly, and while instructing Long Yuehong to continue cooking for Bai Chen, he said to Lehman:

"Tell me about your commission, but we may not accept it."

Phew... Lehman breathed a sigh of relief:

"It's like this, when I was an employee of a certain military enterprise of 'United Industries', I was rescued by a relic hunter.

"His name is Lars, he is a little younger than me, he is good at marksmanship, he is outstanding in fighting, he is an 'experienced hunter'.

"Later, we often met. He helped me a lot, and I also gave him a lot of commissions, which made him live well..."

After briefly talking about the past, Lehman finally said:

"Anyway, he's my best friend."

"What happened to him?" Jiang Baimian asked.

Long Yuehong, who was helping Bai Chen with cooking, also pricked up her ears.

This story sounds interesting.

Lehman's expression slowly became serious:

"He disappeared.

"Almost a year ago, he disappeared in the Red Stone Collection."

"Before he disappeared, did he say anything to you?" It wasn't Jiang Baimian who asked this question, but Shang Jianyao, who was holding his chest with one hand and stroking his chin with the other.

He was only a pipe short of impersonating the famous detective in the radio play.

Lehman exhaled slowly and said:

"The assembly point where he was born was raided, and his only living sister was taken away and made a slave.

"He has been looking for his sister's whereabouts, and one day, he happily told me that he found a clue that his sister was sold to the Redstone Collection, and has probably become a servant of the 'Underground Ark'.

"I think it shouldn't be too difficult to redeem a person from the 'Underground Ark', so I told him that as long as I can confirm that his sister is there, I can help him with a certain amount of supplies to complete the transaction.

"He set off to Redstone soon after, and I had friends tell me that he did come, but he was never seen again within a few days.

"He just disappeared."

Speaking of the latter, Lehman's tone was very gloomy.

"Do you suspect that his disappearance is related to the 'Underground Ark'?" Jiang Baimian asked.

"Maybe he had a conflict with some people in the Red Stone Group, was quietly killed, tied to a stone, and sank into the lake." Shang Jianyao offered another possibility.

On the gray soil, except for the interior of several major forces, order and chaos coexist in other places, and murder and robbery are often staged.

Lehman shook his head:

"In other settlements, this may happen, but Hongshiji, as you know, all the townspeople like to hide, and there are no business entanglements, so it is difficult for outsiders to have conflicts with them, uh, I also asked La Ernes took the letter I wrote to some of my friends and asked for their care."

"For example, Herwig?" Jiang Baimian asked with a smile.

"Yes." Lehman didn't deny it.

Before Herwig's death, he was Lehman's main partner in Redstone, and it is not an exaggeration to call him a friend.

Seeing Yao, Shang was immediately excited:

"Could it be Herwig?

"Herwig's wife doesn't have a good relationship with him. Lars is staying at their house, and he is a very capable hunter. Will the two have emotional entanglements soon? When Herwig finds out, the anger Kill it by mistake?"

What are the company's radio dramas and radio stories usually broadcasting... Uh, why is this story so familiar?Based on the fact that Weller had an affair with his boss's wife and was smashed on the spot, combined with the fact that Bishop Renato suffered from "innocent disease" and Herwig was scared to death in the ventilation duct?Jiang Baimian gradually figured out the source of Shang Jianyao's inspiration.

Lehman shook his head without hesitation:

"impossible."

"What evidence do you have?" Shang Jianyao said that he could not accept it.

Lehman hesitated for a moment, and clasped his hands together:

"It's impossible for him to have an affair with Teresa, because he likes a man."

This... Jiang Baimian looked at the arms dealer in front of him, gave Shang Jianyao a look, told him not to continue "reasoning", and said, "I understand, it was Lars and Herwig who had an affair, and was caught by special When Leisa found out, she became furious and asked her adulterer, Bishop Renato, to help kill the third male."

The chaos and complexity of the story aside, it will definitely hurt Lehman emotionally.

Shang Jian Yao returned regretful eyes and closed his mouth.

Jiang Baimian turned to ask:

"Then did you find any clues later?"

Lehman waited for a few seconds before saying:

"I found out that he visited the 'Visa Trading Company' and met with a DiMarco butler named Ulrich.

"Besides this, there are no other clues. I mobilized my staff and asked a lot of people from the Redstone Collection to help. I searched for the 'Underground Ark', but nothing was gained.

"I even approached Ulrich myself, but he said that Lars disappeared after he learned of his sister's unfortunate death. Yes, Lars' sister did enter the 'underground ark' and became a servant inside , but fell ill and died within a few months."

Sick and died?Jiang Baimian suddenly thought of what Veyer said before:

Dimarco is brutal and likes to take out his servants' anger, not taking human lives seriously.

Lehman glanced at the woman wearing a delicate monk's mask, thought it over and said:

"Recently, I got a piece of news through Herwig.

"'Underground Ark' has an exit somewhere in Iron Mountain, and people often come and go."

Iron Mountain is the north of the ruins of the city, where the mountain monsters live. On the other side of the Iron Mountain Range, there is a famous ruin in the chaotic era called "Iron Mountain City".

This is consistent with the information provided by Veyer... Jiang Baimian asked thoughtfully:

"And how did Herwig know?"

Lehman had no intention of hiding for the deceased:

"He knew it from Anhebas, and Anhebas heard it from the monsters."

That’s right, Anhebas and the trolls have been dealing secretly... Wait, the "Underground Ark" has an exit somewhere in Iron Mountain... It must not be far from the place where the trolls live. If DiMarco wants to sell the redstone The collected information can be completely hidden...Jiang Baimian quickly connected things together.

"Where exactly?" she asked.

Lehman took out a hand-drawn map, pointed to the red circle on it and said:

"here."

He immediately described what the signs on the map represented, so that the "Qianbai team" could accurately find the destination.

After talking about this matter, Lehman took out another photo:

"This was taken not long before Lars disappeared."

Jiang Baimian took the photo, glanced at it, and found that Lars was a manly man.

He has short flaxen hair, a straight nose bridge, light blue eyes, and a light beard around his mouth. The biggest feature is a small blue birthmark on his forehead.
