Chapter 377 Borrowing and repayment

In the end, the team at the garrison failed to find the "murderer" they wanted in the inn. They left just as they came without any greeting.

Lisa immediately sealed everything in the warehouse, and even the management staff of the inn gathered together to interrogate them one by one whether they had smuggled contraband.

This process lasted for quite some time.

Until the sun set in the west, Zhu Jue still didn't wait for Lisanna's return.

On the contrary, the Earl of Alterland sent another invitation letter. This time the invitation was no longer a gentleman. They seemed to have known that the Shining Gold Chamber of Commerce had changed hands, so even the names in the invitation letter had been changed.

What else could it be?

just go!

With two hours left before the reception, Zhu Jue finally made a decision.

"President, this is the loosest clothes I bought according to your request. I wonder if it suits you?"

Holding a black formal suit in his hand, the servant from the Chamber of Commerce bowed forward and humbly asked Zhu Jue for his opinion.

At this time, Zhu Jue was being manipulated by several people. He had no idea that the world could be so sophisticated. Because of his status as the president of the Shuojin Chamber of Commerce, he had to dress up from head to toe when attending a cocktail party. The original Naturally, that cheap outfit is not on the market.

"Whatever, hurry up and finish it for me."

Zhu Jue was too lazy to find fault at this time. He opened his arms and assumed a "face me" posture, still being manipulated by the servants.

However, it turned out that these people were specially recruited by the Chamber of Commerce to take care of him. After all, they still have some skills. Zhu Jue, who has an excellent figure, was born to be a clothes hanger. He originally seemed to have a somewhat "idle" temperament in a black formal suit and silk hat. It immediately turned into a unique sense of freedom.

But when Lisanna finished handling the matter at hand and was about to report back, what she saw was a "funny man" holding mutton skewers in his hands and kicking a stone on tiptoe.

The orange-red sunset reflected half of his cheeks red, and the black formal suit turned into a set of half-red and half-black rather dramatic clothes.

The person next to him who had been styling Zhu Jue for more than half an hour was covering his face and banging his head against the wall. Several young girls passed by and laughed all the way at this unconventional scene.

"Waiting for you, did you find anything?"

Noticing Lisanna's arrival, Zhu Jue stopped and raised his hand to grab the stone. When he let go, there was only a pile of stone chips.

"I have checked both the accounts in the station and the managers of various departments. Contrabands do exist, but they are all private goods by default. Based on our relationship with the government here, these things are not worthy of such a big deal. A large-scale search.”

Her eyes followed the stone chips, but Lisanna kept reporting.

"The situation this time is a bit strange. I specifically asked the manager here, and he said that he had not received any advance notice from our 'friends' at the garrison. In other words, this was considered a surprise inspection, and the garrison who had just come here was The police chief is usually very close to the Earl of Oatland."

"I know, you go back and get ready first. You have to go to the cocktail party later."

Before Lisanna could finish speaking, Zhu Jue interrupted her, waved his hand, and walked forward on his own. The former was stunned for a few seconds, raised his head and wanted to say something, but found Zhu Jue's eyes at this time. Not on her body, but thrown into the distance.

Following Zhu Jue's gaze, he saw a man walking towards the end of the street.

A wooden mask, a loose robe, and a medium-sized barrel in his hand.

Although the two sides were still dozens of meters apart, Lisanna still had a strange premonition that the other party was coming for the Shining Gold Chamber of Commerce!

The same feeling also arose in Zhu Jue's mind. As the new president, of course he had to step forward, not to mention that the other party was still an "acquaintance", even if he had only met once in the morning.

Once you are alive, the second time you are familiar.

On the other side, Lobelin also noticed Zhu Jue at the door of Shuojin Chamber of Commerce, and he was equally impressed by this man whom he had only met once.

"Wearing formal attire and a silk hat, he seems to be going to a banquet. He is standing at the door of Shuojin Chamber of Commerce. Is he here to purchase things? No, his target is me!"

With this thought in mind, Lobelin kept walking and finally found the location of the Searing Box. No matter what, he had to get it in his hands!

The two of them walked forward and met in the middle of the street.

The sun was setting in the distance, and there was a stream of people coming and going nearby, making it extremely noisy.

"You're looking for me?"

Zhu Jue turned the mutton skewers in his hand to sign and asked first.

"No, I'm looking for the president of the Shuojin Chamber of Commerce."

It took him a lot of effort to get the information from those dream eaters. Fortunately, he also locked the target. Now when he met Zhu Jue, Lobelin said it simply. He didn't want to get entangled with Zhu Jue because he There are more important things to do now.

But the problem is that the people he doesn't want to tangle with are the people he has to tangle with.

"Oh, you know, the president of Shuojin Chamber of Commerce has been replaced recently."

Zhu Jue pursed his lips and said with a strange expression.

"I don't care who it is, I just want to borrow something from him."

"What to borrow?"

"You don't need to know, get out of the way now, I don't have time to waste on you."

Looking at Zhu Jue with some vigilance, Lobelin frowned. He didn't understand why the man in front of him was pestering him.

Yes, he now had some doubts about whether the meeting on the beach this morning was a coincidence or an inevitable arrangement by the guy in front of him.

"Well, if you insist."

He turned sideways and took a step to the side, watching Lobelin walk towards the Shuojin Chamber of Commerce.

As expected, Lisanna met him. Without saying a few words, the former cast a surprised look at Zhu Jue, then turned back, spread her hands and said a few words to Lobelin.

So the latter returned to Zhu Jue with a dark face.

"I am the new president of the Shuojin Chamber of Commerce, so I asked you what you want to borrow."

Before Luo Belin could speak, Zhu Jue explained first.

"I want the Searing Box."

Lobelin's answer became increasingly simple.

"no."

Zhu Jue's rejection was even briefer. He didn't expect that the other party would make this request. He waved in Lisanna's direction and asked her to come over.

"Hey, you told me before that the Searing Box is a secret in our hands, but I have only been here at Dilas Harbor for a day, and now two people who know the news have appeared. Are you sure this is secret?"

"Sorry, President, he is also here to snatch the Searing Box?"

"It took me three years to find a solution to the trouble, and another two years to find where the thing that can solve the trouble is. I don't want to hear rejection from anyone. I have to get the Searing Box!"

Lobelin did not give Lisanna a chance to continue speaking, and took a step forward. The tone of his words and the aura on his body showed his determination.

Zhu Jue raised his hand and pressed the surprised Lisanna's shoulders, dragging her behind him. He also took a step forward and looked directly into the gray eyes under the wooden mask. There was no more smile on his face: "No. I'm sorry, I don't care at all that you have been looking for the Searing Box for several years, it is my thing now, if you can help me open it, maybe I can lend you 3 to 5 minutes."

"Three minutes is enough!"

Before Zhu Jue could finish his cruel words, Lobelin took over and said.

"ha?"

Is it really just borrowing?
