Although he knows that his character is not "slender, weak and sensitive", Ghost Spider also believes that he is definitely not a fool with nerves as thick as a water pipe.

Therefore, an inexplicable remark made by Qian Sui Bai Sui made him think twice and fail to understand.

'How rough is a man's nerves'?

Was she mocking at that time?Or hint?Or just rant?

It's so strange~

Sarcasm or complaints, he and her can't even be called friendship, and the content of the conversation is definitely not so familiar.

If it's a hint...

What is she trying to imply?There doesn't seem to be anything strange, is it worth her hinting at him as an officer?

To be honest, Ghost Spider feels that he is definitely not a rough-headed guy, and sometimes he is even suspicious. For example, because he cannot judge a sentence from a thousand years old, he... has a lot of associations.

But it can't be blamed on him. Guys in high positions, no matter navy pirates or even government officials, will more or less have the same problems as ghost spiders, paranoid and suspicious.

There is no way, I have fought a lot of wars, I have fought wits and courage with my opponents all these years, and I am not at all wary of people when they encounter troubles. I have died so long ago that my bones have turned into ashes, okay?

After much deliberation, Ghost Spider couldn't come up with an answer, so he had to put it aside temporarily.

……

The next day, the sun at eight or nine o'clock in the morning was very good, and against the light golden glow that dragged in from outside the window, it made the people in the room even more sluggish.

Ghost Spider sat crookedly behind the desk, helplessly listening to Adjutant Creevy's expressionless chatter.

The documents as high as the hill were piled up on the table, as if they were the result of yesterday's slow work, but in fact they were all newly released documents, and it was unknown where Marineford had so many pending matters.

No wonder there are rumors in the Navy Headquarters that the twelve lieutenant generals guarding the army will probably not die on the battlefield, but will be buried with countless documents... The ghost spider thought about it with a splitting headache.

"Lord Lieutenant General——"

There was no response for a long time, and Creevey's voice suddenly brought a gloomy grinding sound, "Please don't ignore me with your eyes open?"

"Hmm~ I'm listening." Slouchingly, he raised his eyelids, and glanced at the document that the adjutant handed to him under his nose, while the ghost spider curled his lips angrily, "Is the No. 15 complaint finally here? "

Before he finished speaking, he saw a vein popping out of Creevey's forehead, so he paused, and then slowed down his speech to prevent his adjutant from bursting out of anger, "Okay~ You go and remind those bastards, Ben The monthly quota is full~ If there is any dispute, let them settle it next month."

"Lord Admiral Ghost Spider..." Creevey's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, he took several deep breaths, and then he seemed to barely suppress the eruption of emotions, and said, "Can you understand how I felt when I received the complaint early in the morning? ?”

"Especially the content of this complaint is simply unbelievable!"

The document held by his fingertips shook violently a few times, Creevey gritted his teeth, "Can you explain, Lieutenant General? The reason why you went to the marshal's office building last night and cut off all the branches in the green belt?"

"The gardener is crying!"

"Tell the other party, it's military/military/confidential/secret." The ghost spider threw down a high-sounding excuse with a cold face (actually, he couldn't find a valid reason).

"..." The veins on Creevey's forehead trembled.

……

Seeing the adjutant's breathless face and wanting to pass out, the ghost spider felt a little guilty, thought for a while, and then said, "I'll find a few people to help the gardener, dig out that forest and replace it with a new one. ~"

Creevy, who didn't move or speak, seemed to be still trying to stay awake, and seemed unable to carry out the order for a while.

As a good boss, Ghost Spider didn't remind the adjutant to regain his senses in time, but took advantage of this gap to lower his eyelids and turn his mind away.

Yesterday he was looking for briquettes, taking advantage of the fact that there were no idlers in the Navy headquarters at night, he cut down all the suspicious tree branches and found nothing, the ghost spider expressed his sadness about this.

And then~ if you dare to do something, you have to be brave, he won't shirk responsibility for cleaning up the mess, won't he?

It's okay for the gardener to come over and complain about using up the last share of the month, even though half of the month is still unfinished.

The ghost spider didn't take the matter of wages being deducted for excessive complaints at all, and asked someone to repair the green belt in order to prevent the Marshal of the Warring States from finding out.

The Marshal of the Warring States Period who left Marineford yesterday afternoon to go to the center to participate in an unknown meeting, if he came back and saw the beloved plants downstairs suffered devastating damage...

Uh~ I guess he won't be able to receive the mission in the second half of the year, right?

Thinking of the very unpleasant consequences, the ghost spider twitched the corners of his eyes a little guiltyly, while making a quick and decisive decision in his heart, he should take advantage of the marshal's absence to make up for it.

The furious Marshal of the Warring States Period, in addition to deducting the wages of the guy who made him angry, can also make the culprit witness a golden Buddha rising from the ground.

Although, basically, it was Mr. Karp who angered the Marshal of the Warring States Period and had the courage to bear the consequences, but it’s not that he is not in the headquarters now~...

Poker-faced for a long time in his heart, but he couldn't find anyone who could effectively divert the marshal's anger, and the ghost spider also expressed his helplessness.

A month earlier, Lieutenant General Karp left Marineford for some reason, and it is said that he was going to the East China Sea on a warship.

Speaking of Mr. Karp, the only one in this department who dared to shout at the Marshal of the Warring States period and now travels far away... The ghost spider's melancholy turned away again inexplicably, and turned to a strange direction.

It is said that Mr. Wen Karp was anxious to leave the house after receiving a phone call, and an 'insider' in the headquarters revealed that the voice on the other end of the call from Donghai was young and sweet...

Therefore, on the second day after Mr. Garp left, there were rumors in the headquarters that Lieutenant General Garp was so angry that his little lover eloped away in the East China Sea.

Then, while the rumors came from nowhere, in the process of whispering, by the way, Lieutenant General Cap's little lover in the East China Sea and his elopement partner completed an epic love story.

Of course, the ghost spider sneered at the rumors that some people believed. In the Marineford Navy Headquarters, the private rumors have always been unbelievable.

For example, "The reason why the Marshal of the Warring States Period is not married until now is not only because of his good friend Mr. Garp, but also because the blind date partner can't bear to have to raise a sheep as a son." '...(==).

For another example, "The three generals have been single for many years, not because their horizons are too high, but because these high-level, generals and lieutenants have unspeakable friendship with each other." '...(==b).

……

In the past, I accidentally heard various versions of rumors, but now I recalled it because of Mr. Karp again, and the ghost spider trembled subconsciously.

Polusalino, Kuzan, Sakaski... 囧囧囧.

Look at this brain hole turned into briquettes, it is obviously the result of idle time.

People can't do nothing, and when they are free, their minds will turn to weird places. In order to avoid another tragedy, they can't get angry (Marshal of the Warring States Period and the others are not ignorant of the rumors, but it is said that as a high-level person, you must have strength, so you can't take it seriously), Ghost Spider quickly decided to find jobs for everyone under his command.

So he raised his hand and knocked on the desk surface, reminding Creevey that he was also distracted, "Let Lieutenant Colonel Uriel and Chitose come to the office."

The next moment, the adjutant took the order and left.

The ghost spider leaned heavily on the back of the chair, staring blankly at the pile of papers on the desk that would never diminish.

I don't know if the pirates have become more peace-loving recently. The first half of the Great Channel has been very calm recently, and even the Marineford Navy Headquarters has nothing to do.

It is this superficial singing and dancing that makes Ghost Spider feel restless these days.

It's not that he's not used to living a peaceful life, but that there are often major events brewing behind this quiet and comfortable time recently. A blood-licking person like him rarely makes mistakes in his intuition, so he is irritable and restless.

I believe that there are many people who have the same premonition as him, but they haven't been able to find out where the vortex under the calm water is yet.

……

After a while, Creevey, who left a few minutes ago, returned again, followed by Qiansui Baisui who had received an order to see him.

Leading the man to stand in front of the desk, Creevey habitually raised his hands and pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose, and said back, "Lord Lieutenant General, Lieutenant Colonel Uriel is not in his office."

"I called the logistics department just now and learned that Lieutenant Colonel Ulier did not show up this morning, nor did he contact anyone. The last time he was seen was at quarter past seven last night."

"Also, 15 minutes ago the Guards received a lady."

The adjutant paused for a few seconds, and then continued, "The lady claimed that Lieutenant Colonel Ulier, who was supposed to meet with her last night, did not attend the appointment. She waited all night and had to come to the headquarters to ask what happened."

Such a coincidence?The ghost spider frowned, glanced at Qiansui Baisui, and felt a little weird, but seeing her expression was the same, it seemed that it had nothing to do with this matter.

With his thoughts racing and his doubts suppressed for a moment, the ghost spider raised his hand and pulled the phone snail on the corner of the desk, and dialed the number.

After a while, the little snail at hand raised its tentacles, and a connection signal came from the other end.

"Lieutenant General Ghost Spider." Shen Sheng reported his identity, and Ghost Spider then reported a set of numbers representing the identity number of the person who needs to inquire, and finally said, "Don't hang up the phone, give me the result immediately."

'Please wait. 'The tone of the snail on the phone was cold and businesslike.

……

While waiting, Ghost Spider unconsciously frowned. At this moment, there seemed to be some ominous premonition quietly emerging. He hoped that his feeling was not so correct.

only…

After a brief silence, the little phone snail quickly re-uttered, "Lieutenant General Ghost Spider, I'm sorry...number..."

After repeating the number representing his identity, the person on the other side lowered his volume a little, his tone became faintly heavy, "The paper of life has been burned. '

With a tsk, the ghost spider slammed down the phone's snail's handset, the corners of its mouth were tightly pursed, and it raised its eyes to look at Creevey who had the same solemn expression. Stay for a few seconds, then slide away.

Closing his eyes, he let out a deep breath before opening them, Ghost Spider ordered in a hoarse voice, "Let the guards send that woman to us, and ask her in detail."

Lieutenant Colonel Ulier's life paper was burned, representing his death.

The Navy Headquarters keeps the life certificate of every officer with military rank stationed in Marineford. That department is directly under the Marshal of the Warring States Period. Only lieutenant generals and above positions have the right to investigate. This measure was only implemented a year ago, and it is extremely secret of.

The reasons that led to this measure... let's leave it at that.

The most urgent task at the moment is to find out the death of Lieutenant Colonel Ulier.

If they are performing missions outside, life and death on the battlefield are as common as eating and drinking, but this does not mean that the death of the navy staying in Marineford is normal.

The death of Lieutenant Colonel Uriel...maybe it is the harbinger of the approaching storm.

……

He raised his hand to take out the cigarette pack, lit the cigarette, and looked at the thousand-year-old who stayed in the office through the rising mist, the ghost spider slowly narrowed his eyes.

The ghost spider doesn't believe that there are coincidences in this world, too many coincidences are conspiracy.

Polusalino also often said, "What is different usually has its purpose." After working together for so many years, the ghost spider is naturally very clear about the accuracy of Polusalino's words.

Chitose Baisui's performance yesterday was very different from her recent days, her words seemed to have something else to say, and now the officers under his command died without warning...

It's best that this woman didn't hide anything ulterior, otherwise...

She can't blame him for being cruel.
