Chapter 1871 Lost in the Sangyu and Gained in the East

Sergei Trifinov's guess was correct: the Amber Room was indeed in Kaliningrad. But he was wrong: He assumed it would be in the Nazi bunker twelve meters underground, located in the former German High Command in Kaliningrad. But he found it, underground in an old castle in the suburbs—next to a septic tank.

This incident, however, is directly linked to the death of Dr. Alfred Rohde, former director of the Königsberg Museum of Fine Arts. The day before he and his wife were to be interrogated by NKVD (the predecessor of the KGB), they both mysteriously died, and their bodies disappeared. However, Dr. Rohde had disappeared from Soviet surveillance for several days before his death. Soviet intelligence investigations at the time suspected him of visiting the suburban Pala Castle, a former German naval base. Xiao Peng's old castle was located directly on the way to the Pala Castle from the city center.

This is why the New Calypso made a special trip to Kaliningrad after leaving St. Petersburg. At that time, those who followed Xiao Peng thought he was going to take it back to Europe, but in fact he did so to take away the discovered "Amber Palace".

However, Xiao Peng had no hope that Pascal could reassemble the Amber Palace. Back then, the Germans used 27 boxes to pack up the Amber Palace, and Xiao Peng and his team only found 16 boxes, which means they only had half of the Amber Palace. As for where the rest went, who knows!

But Pascal is a well-known stubborn person. Once he makes a decision, no one can change it. Let him play the puzzle slowly.

Lost in the west, gained in the east. The Teutonic Knights didn't find their treasure, but they did find the Amber Room. This world is indeed a bit fantastical.

Fabian said, "Xiao, how long do you plan to stay here?"

Billy said, "My idol can stay here as long as he wants. What's he afraid of? My salvage company makes a lot of money. Even if they all know that my company is my idol's subsidiary, who would dare to put obstacles in my way? They can't go against money. Besides, I'm a noble."

Xiao Peng looked at Billy's smug look and said, "Kasim, come over and beat him up!"

"Stop yelling, idol," Billy said. "I don't know which girl Kasin has gone back to his room with. You must be suffocating after two months on Lake Ladoga. How are you? Are these girls I brought with me good?"

Xiao Peng was stunned. "If you hadn't mentioned these girls, I wouldn't have realized it. I see these girls come from all over the place. Where did you find them?"

Billy smiled and said, "You shouldn't thank me, but Mr. and Mrs. Hook."

"Mr. and Mrs. Hook?" Xiao Peng was stunned: "Del and Anna?"

"BINGO!" Billy snapped his fingers. "Have you forgotten that Del has an entertainment company? Now, with Anna's help, the company is growing bigger and bigger. They need everything except beautiful women. The DJs who came are also artists under their company. He took the initiative to find me the other day and arranged all these people. Anna said that these girls are your type, so you can have fun without worrying about it. Their communication tools have been handed over."

Xiao Peng frowned and asked, "How did they know you were coming to see me?"

Billy laughed and said, "My idol, everyone knows I'm coming here to find you! There are countless people waiting to see you in Torshavn right now. Connie, do you remember my female cabinet member friend? The person who came to see you is living in her house."

Xiao Peng's brows were twisted into knots. He felt that what he did was quite secretive, but he found out that everything he did was controlled by others. This feeling was really not good.

Fabian laughed and said, "Xiao, what did you say? 'Don't take others too lightly, and don't take yourself too seriously,' right? Every country has a think tank composed of powerful people with extraordinary intelligence and vision who make decisions. Do you really think they are all idiots, inferior to you? It's not surprising that they guessed your whereabouts, right?"

Xiao Peng's face flushed. "Then why did they all go to St. Petersburg to find me?"

"It's just a show!" Billy answered. "Pretending to be devoted to the country is a way to win votes. It's called image work. But the real 'main battlefield' is right here. Just wait, I bet your place is going to be bustling over the next few days."

Xiao Peng smiled and said, "Billy, you've impressed me. I always thought you were just a player. I didn't expect you to see things much more clearly than I do."

Billy smiled bitterly and said, "If you were born in a family like mine, you would have received this kind of education since childhood. But you don't have to think too much about it. Since they have made such a decision, it means they are going to back down - the tough attitude of negotiating with you in front of others is to cover up the fact that they have decided to give in. I told Connie that anyone who wants to come to you now should contact the Faroe Islands' Legislative Assembly first. The Legislative Assembly will not miss the opportunity to stab someone now. How about we take a gamble on who will be the first to come here to find Xiao?"

Fabian stood up. "Alright. Why worry about that? Xiao Ke has been on Lake Ladoga for two months and has been on a plane for so long. Now that we're back, let's have some fun. The weather here is so bad that we can't go out."

Xiao Peng smiled and said, "Fabian really understands me. Why would you care about those things? We're just here to relax, but I have something to do right now."

"What for?" Fabian asked in confusion.

Xiao Peng's eyes widened. "Why did I want this island? Isn't it because there are hot springs on this island? I'm going to have a nice sauna and a hot spring bath to refresh myself before I have some fun!"

"There are so many girls waiting for you here, but you go take a shower?" Billy asked in confusion.

Fabian said, "Yes, you should take a good bath. You take a shower first and we will wait for you here."

"Okay, don't let the girl in. I just want to take a good bath now, don't mess around!"

"Okay..."

What Xiao Peng wanted most along the way was to take a good bath. During this period of time on the boat on Lake Ladoga, he could only take a shower, and he couldn't take a shower at any time.

However, not long after he entered the hot spring, he heard the roar of a helicopter from the sky.

Xiao Peng frowned slightly. Who was this? He'd just arrived here and he couldn't wait to find him? Didn't they say anyone who wanted to see him had to go through the Legislative Assembly? How could the Legislative Assembly send someone so quickly?

Bruch told Xiao Peng that when someone was looking for him, he would let them in directly. He also wanted to see who was so proactive.

"Xiao Xiao, you really know how to enjoy life!" Soon an old man's voice came from behind Xiao Peng.

Xiao Peng frowned slightly: "Who are you?"

"My surname is Zheng!" the old man introduced himself.

Xiao Peng was a little confused. Although he had received personal letters from Mr. Zheng before, this was his first time meeting him in person. "Mr. Zheng? What brought you here? With your status, do you think the country will let you wander around freely?"
