Libai City in the country of Ayr.
This is a high-end manor located in the north of Liba City. It was awarded to Dill as a viscount by the King of El Country, but now it has become Lin Lin's temporary stronghold.
Inside the manor.
Lin Lin sat on the main seat in the living room, shaking the wine glass in his hand, and looked at the person opposite through the wine glass: "What's your name?"
"My lord, just call me Makov." Makov nervously looked at the boy from outer space in front of him.
"You said you've seen someone who looks very similar to the one in the photo?" Lin Lin stared into Markov's eyes, as if he wanted to see through his soul.
"I've seen it before." Makov smiled flatteringly, stretched out his hand to Lin Lin and asked: "But, my lord, Captain Cael said there will be a reward, this..."
"Ha." Lin Lin chuckled, then took out two thousand Galaxy coins in cash and handed it over.
Markov quickly took the Galaxy Coin and clicked it, wondering: "Sir, didn't you say 10,000? Why is this only 2,000?"
"I need to know first if it's true." Lin Lin didn't even look at him. In the past few days, there were many people who wanted to take advantage of Lin Lin's Galaxy Coins. Of course, those people were dealt with 'legally' by Dill. Even if it was lost, Lin Lin didn't care what method they used, as long as he knew his money was back.
"Tell me, where did you see it?" Lin Lin turned on the recording and asked.
Hearing this, Makov also sat up straight and said timidly: "I saw it at the border between our country of Ayr and the country of Kari."
"Border?" Lin Lin raised his head and glanced at Markov.
"Yes, my lord."
Makov fell into memories and slowly said: "That day, I went to the edge of the border battlefield to pick up leaks as usual. As you know, sir, we ordinary people could only pick up some metal and sell it during the war. I use this to make a living.”
"I remember that there was a little rain in the sky, and I was moving an unexploded cannonball out of the pit. Sir, you don't know, this kind of cannonball is worth a lot of money." Markov said with a smile.
Lin Lin raised his head and reminded Makov: "Tell the important point."
"Okay, okay."
"Just when I was about to take out the shell, there was a sudden explosion from behind me, which shocked me. I squatted there for a long time without daring to get up, because I was worried that it was a soldier from the Kali Kingdom. .”
"However, after a few minutes, there was no movement, so I plucked up the courage to walk over there, because I had heard the sound of something falling from the sky before the explosion, and I thought, what if? One is a fighter jet. If that thing is discovered by me, our country of Ayr can reward me with a lot of money, which is enough for me to take my whole family to apply for interstellar immigration."
"But when I walked in the direction of the explosion and took a look, guess what? It wasn't a fighter jet there, it was a weird robot, just like..." Markov thought hard for a long time but couldn't find a suitable one. words to describe.
"Is it this?" Lin Lin moved his finger, and the mecha driven by An Ming was instantly projected.
Markov looked at the projection carefully for a while and then said: "It doesn't look like it. The robot I saw had two cannons on its back and shoulders. The caliber was very large. One cannon could knock down a skyscraper. kind."
"Then keep talking." Lin Lin nodded. It might be because it was raining and Markov couldn't see clearly; it might also be because the one that fell was not An Ming's mecha.
"Have we ever seen that kind of rare thing on Bonan Planet? At that time, I thought about taking a closer look. If it was a new weapon developed by the Kali Kingdom, I could take a few photos and report it back, and I could make a fortune. Where’s Fei’s bonus?”
"But before I could get close, the robot's chest opened, and a person jumped out. Then, there was the sound of something flying in the sky, and I saw the person coming out of the chest looking at the sky warily. , squatted on the ground and did something, and then ran towards the place where I was hiding. He didn’t scare me to death at the time, I thought he had discovered me and was coming to catch me.”
"But fortunately, he didn't notice me. He just passed by my hiding place. That's how I saw his appearance. My lord, tell me, who can forget such an amazing thing?"
"Isn't it just the right time for you to come to Bernan Star? As soon as I saw the photo in Captain Kael's hand, I knew that the person you were looking for was the person I saw." Markov chuckled. .
Lin Lin analyzed the clues that Markov said. Except for some flaws, everything made sense. The only thing that was wrong was the difference in the mechas that Markov said. However, combined with the fact that there were no mechas on Bonan Star, It seems that it is normal for Markov's description to have problems.
Taking out the remaining 8,000 Galaxy coins from his body and throwing it in front of Markov, Lin Lin said: "Don't use this money within three days. I need to go to the place you mentioned."
"Of course." Markov happily accepted the 8,000 Galaxy coins and left the suite in a hurry.
After Markov left, Lin Lin turned on the communicator and said to the other side: "Monkey, help me pay attention to Markov's movements."
After waiting for a moment, the monkey replied: "I have to add more money."
"..." Lin Lin didn't speak, just waited quietly for the monkey to continue.
"Just kidding, you already gave me 180,000 yuan, how could I still take the money?" Monkey laughed and said, "I will pay attention to this person."
…
Following the direction given by Markov, Lin Lin slowly arrived here.
Looking at the big pit in front of him, Lin Lin nodded slightly. It seemed that what Markov said was true, at least the fact that the robot fell was true, but he didn't know who the fallen mecha was after. The country was transported away. If it was the Ayr country, it would be okay, but if it was the Kali country, then he would have to make another trip. Dill also went to the capital of the Ayr country because of his request, otherwise he would But I can continue to use Dill's status as Viscount in the Kingdom of Cali.
"Wisdom Eye, can you see any difference?" Lin Lin asked Wisdom Eye.
After scanning for a while with his watch, Zhiyan said: "Lin Lin, there is something wrong with the stone five meters in front of you to your right. It seems to have been moved by someone."
After hearing this, Lin Lin stepped forward and turned over the stone, and sure enough he found a text under the stone.
"After being hunted for 63 days, my backup mecha was also destroyed. Fortunately, I sent a distress message to the new captain. He should be coming to rescue me soon. Hold on, An Ming!"
"This should be what An Ming left behind, but we can't rule out that it was left behind by his enemies to confuse the public." Lin Lin muttered, and then said to Zhiyan again: "Zhiyan, see if you can hunt the net again. I found An Ming’s handwritten records in the database and tried to compare the similarities.”
After finishing the arrangement, Lin Lin called Dill: "Dil, try and see if you can use your authority to find something. The key words are two days ago, on a rainy night, a mecha fell from the sky."
"I'll try, but I can't guarantee that I can find it." Dill quickly replied.
Later, after Lin Lin inspected the scene and found no other clues, he returned to Libai City and waited for news from Dill.
From noon until evening, Dill finally contacted Lin Lin.
"How's it going? Have you found any information?" As soon as the connection was connected, Lin Lin couldn't wait to ask. If it is true that there are many flying objects chasing An Ming as Markov said, then An Ming is very dangerous now. There is a possibility of being caught by them, so he must move faster.
Dill was silent for a moment and said in a deep voice: "I not only used my viscount authority, but also used the authority of a certain grand duke in the country of Ayr, but I didn't find anything useful from the database of the country of Ayr. Do you want to The thing you are looking for is most likely over there, in the country of Kali.”
"Is it true?" When Lin Lin saw the big pit again, he thought that the mecha was taken away by the Kali State. However, Lin Lin took a chance and asked Dill to check it out, just in case he guessed It was a mistake, but now it seems that it was indeed transported away by the Kingdom of Kali.
"Do you need me to come back?" Seeing that Lin Lin didn't speak, Dier thought of coming back and using his special status between the two countries to help Lin Lin.
Lin Lin thought for a moment and then said: "No need, you continue to help me find An Ming's whereabouts, I will handle the mecha issue myself."
"Then I'll let Katie follow you. She can protect your safety." After Dill finished speaking, he hung up the communication before Lin Lin could refuse.
Lin Lin didn't think about refusing. After all, if he went there alone, it would be too eye-catching. Especially during the war, the aliens who suddenly appeared in the country were worthy of special attention.
But it is very convenient to have Katie with him. After all, Katie is also Dill's sister. With this relationship, even if Kaliguo has doubts about him, it will not be too embarrassing because of his identity as Viscount Dill. Own.
So, Lin Lin returned to Dill's house, which was their temporary base.
"Let's go." Katie came to Lin Lin, took Lin Lin into the spaceship, and said to Lin Lin: "It is during the war now. Although my brother has a special status, he cannot blatantly come directly from the territory of El Country. Heading to the Kingdom of Kali, so we need to use the spaceship to go there.”
As Lin Lin took his seat, Katie directly boosted the power of the spacecraft, and it disappeared into the clouds in an instant, causing people on the ground to scream in surprise, thinking that an enemy was coming.
…
On the spaceship, Lin Lin looked down and asked, "Haven't we already passed the border of Kali Country? Why do we continue to move forward?"
"My brother told me that what you are looking for is a fallen mecha, and that kind of thing is usually transported to the laboratory in the capital of Kali and will not be left at the border. It is too risky. Yes." Katie explained patiently.
