Chapter 72 Bounty

Murder, a simple word, echoed in everyone's mind like a bell.

They all looked at the images on the projector again.

How is that possible!

On a boat covered in black mud, would anyone really dare to do anything? Would anyone really be able to do anything?

The man with glasses swallowed a mouthful of water. After being reminded by Perru, he also noticed this matter:

“They are not from the Black Whale Group. In the footage sent by the Eye of Voyage, the bald man in charge of the Black Whale Group’s liaison is also dead. Moreover, the Black Whale Group has no reason to attack us.

Anyone who dares to attack our boss when being besieged by the offshore overlord and black mud must be a master of at least level three.

Could it be a deep sea merchant?"

Perru rested her chin on her hand and watched the scene again and again.

"No, they are not deep-sea traders. Even though it is raining heavily, there is still light. Deep-sea traders will not appear during the day."

While interviewing a deep-sea merchant, Perlu was caught by him and struggled wildly in the water.

In the end, I barely survived with the help of the camera's flash.

Therefore, she could be sure that the people on the Black Rabbit were not deep-sea merchants.

The figure that flashed across the screen is most likely the murderer.

Perru re-watched it three times:

“On the deep sea, he who dares to attack an ironclad ship in the presence of the offshore overlord and black mud is indeed a monster.”

Suddenly, Perru thought of something.

Her intuition told her that the other party possessed some special skills that made him immune to attacks from black mud and offshore overlords.

"Interesting! The Black Rabbit, which attempted to join the Black Whale Group, was killed by an unidentified monster on the sea after its first voyage. This is pretty good news."

Perlu started writing, recording what was on the projector screen on the manuscript paper.

She ran around for three days and finally found some interesting news material!

When the deep-sea traders first appeared, people thought they were just ordinary boatmen.

The monster in front of us may become a famous monster on the sea like the deep-sea merchants.

And her report is most likely the first time a newspaper has reported on this mysterious existence!

The man with glasses moved his lips. He suddenly remembered the Black Rabbit’s first business. Could it be that the chef hired someone to do it?

He was wondering whether he should tell the Black Rabbit about its plan to rob the chef.

But he quickly rejected this idea. How could a first-level chef get the money to hire a third-level transcendent?

Speaking out would only tarnish their reputation and increase their crimes.

Perru picked up the camera, took a few photos, and prepared to leave.

The man with glasses swallowed a mouthful of water. The plague god finally left:

"Ms. Pellew, goodbye. I'm your fan. Can I ask when your newspaper will be published?"

The Black Rabbit Gang needed to transfer their property, deal with all the slaves in the basement, and then escape before this newspaper was published.

"Um?"

Perlu turned around and showed a playful smile:

"You won't have the illusion that you can walk out of this conference room normally after seeing me, right?"

"I'll tell you a piece of news that will be published soon. After the reorganization of the navy, in order to curb the increasing trend of pirates, they are preparing to punish a group of scum who recently joined the pirates.

Guess who is on this list?"

The gang members felt their hearts stop in an instant.

As she spoke, Perlu pushed open the door to the conference room.

At the door were some civilians who wanted to thank Perru.

In addition to the civilians, there are ten law enforcement guards wearing heavy steam armor.

Heavy iron boots stomped through the conference room and gang members drew their weapons.

Da da da da da!

Da da da da da!

Perru picked her ears.

She was not interested in the scenes of fierce fighting. After signing autographs for everyone who came to express their gratitude, she walked towards the White Dove Newspaper Office.

All she wanted now was to get her work done, take a nap, and then have a nice dinner.

…

…

Dusk time.

The waves gently hit the shore, making a low and rhythmic sound.

At the port, outside a small houseboat, there was a sign saying "Rest".

Chen Qi sat in the boat house, opened the nautical chart of the Ice Demon Pirates, and thought about the next destination of the voyage.

It is a big deal to destroy an ironclad ship alone.

For safety reasons, he had to leave Moonstone City temporarily.

Stay out of the spotlight, it would be bad if things get out of hand.

Chen Qi said in his heart.

At this moment, there was a hurried knock on the door of his little house.

"Open the door! Boss! You don't want to make money anymore, it's time to open for business!"

This lively and confident voice... Chen Qi put away the nautical chart and opened the door of the boathouse.

Outside the door, a woman with short blond hair looked at him with a smile.

"What's wrong? Miss Pellew."

"My fans, you finally opened the door."

With a confident look on her face, Perlu sat down at the dining table naturally, holding a freshly printed newspaper.

"?"

Chen Qi showed a puzzled expression.

When did he become her fan?

Although Pellew is in Moonstone City, she does have a lot of crazy die-hard fans.

But apparently, he was not one of them.

As if she could see through Chen Qi's thoughts, Peilu crossed her legs:

"Give me a serving of moonlight fish. By the way, let me guess, are you wondering when you became my fan?"

"when?"

Chen Qi was confused.

If the other party wants to eat moonlight fish, he can only find the big ship next door and buy one at a high price.

But Pelle is here, which is also a good thing.

I might as well ask her if she has any information about D-level cracks.

At this time, Pellegrini handed Chenqi a freshly published copy of the White Dove Times.

Chen Qi took the newspaper.

Today's White Dove Times reported that the three admirals of the navy led ships to prepare to regain the hegemony of the coastal waters and the Sea of ​​​​Rifts, and increased the bounty.

Gang stuff was also reported.

Three gangs were wiped out because they colluded with pirates.

They are the Wild Dog Gang, Black Rabbit Gang, and Dice Gang of Moonstone City.

Black Rabbit Gang... Chen Qi tried his best to stay calm and continued watching.

All the members of the Black Rabbit Gang were arrested, and many of them were sentenced to death.

In Bei, there is a tradition of using death row inmates as experimental subjects.

Soon, a piece of news appeared in front of him.

#In the crack tide, under the storm, the new deep sea monster was born, bloody slaughtering the Black Rabbit Gang#

At the same time, a photo of the offshore overlord was also attached.

"???"

This monster can’t be me... Chen Qi quickly scanned the section.

The newspaper described the wreck of the Black Rabbit, and through some clues, people speculated that a monster of the "deep sea merchant" level might have appeared on the sea.

This monster was so powerful that it ignored the black mud and the offshore overlord and killed the leader of the Black Rabbit Gang, Black Rabbit.

“…”

Chen Qi was slightly startled.

He was in the newspapers.

Although he did not show up, there is no doubt that he is the protagonist of this news.

In Pellegrini's writing, he is completely portrayed as a bloodthirsty monster.

He immediately thought of many possibilities.

Pellew's White Dove Times would most likely attract a group of idle detectives, who would then try to find him through the photos in the newspaper.

What a trouble... Chen Qi touched his head.

Unexpectedly, the first time he appeared in the newspaper in this world was because of this kind of thing.

"etc!"

Chen Qi noticed that there were some strange numbers and photos written on the back of the newspaper.

"The leader of the Wild Dog Gang is Wild Dog. He joined the Black Whale Group and once organized an underground boxing club. He offered a reward of 1 million shells."

"A new female member of the Blood Blade Pirates, her name and origin are unknown, and a reward of 3 million shells is offered."

"A dark afterimage of unknown identity and gender, who slaughtered fifty people on the Black Rabbit, with a reward of 5 million shells!"

Under the newspaper, there was also a photo of him left on the Black Rabbit.

"?"

Why? Chen Qi was shocked.

Why can he get a bounty just for showing a shadow?

Who can be caught with this fleeting black shadow?

Why does a mere shadow have a bounty of five million?

Chen Qi rubbed his forehead.

There was something about the way these navy men thought that he couldn't understand.

Do these navy men fill the bounty with their feet?

I hope that no one will really see his accidental shadow and start looking for him everywhere.

What the shadow did has nothing to do with me.

Perru sat at the dining table and explained:

“In order to combat pirates, the Kingdom of Bei has decided to increase the bounty for everyone and cooperate with our White Dove Newspaper. We will launch a new Bounty Times. This is a warm-up.

By the way, if you provide any clues, you can also receive a reward."

"Is that so? I wonder if I can collect the reward."

Chen Qi smiled and continued reading.

In addition to the people from the four major pirate groups, they are all famous people in the coastal areas, such as Big Mom, Captain Black Eyes, Magic Bullet Shooter, Butcher, etc.

There is another new person appearing on the honor list.

The Flower Witch, although not a dangerous being above the sea, does not show any hostility towards civilians.

However, considering the other party's historical status, as long as he can be captured or sent to the Navy Headquarters, he can be given a full reward of '20 million shells'.

As long as you provide clues, you can get 500,000 shells.

In addition, if you are the first to submit your article to the White Dove Newspaper, you will receive an additional one million shells.

The Flower Witch is really valuable... Chen Qi sighed, making him feel a little itchy.

When Perlu saw Chen Qi finish reading the newspaper, she raised her head and smiled:

"No need to thank me, this is part of my job, I just did it by accident, just treat me to a free meal of moonlight fish."

"?"

Chen Qi suddenly reacted.

Before, the Black Rabbit Gang had threatened him because of the hunting grounds.

Although in his view, the crisis of the Black Rabbit could be said to have been solved by him alone.

In Pelle's eyes, she defeated the Black Rabbit Gang through reporting and interviews!

As a big sister, she easily solved the threat from the gangsters for her chef fans!

"Thank you Miss Pellew, no problem, I will make a great moonfish meal."

Perlu looked up and touched her nose. She felt like she had gained another fan:

"It's just a small matter. I just helped you out at work. If you really want to thank someone, you might as well thank the offshore overlord who attacked the Black Rabbit, or that mysterious black shadow."

As the Overlord of the Near Seas, I really have to thank you for this.

“Thank them too.”

Chen Qi smiled, went to the big boat next door, and bought a luxurious moonlight fish with five thousand shells.

Coincidentally, he didn't have dinner either.

【Cook Moonlight Fish, gain 100 spiritual points.】

In a short while, the delicious scallion oil moonlight fish was ready.

Chen Qi brought the moonlight fish to the table.

"It smells so good! As expected, during this period, we can't miss this moonlight fish meal!"

Perru blushed slightly, and excitedly put the moonlight fish in her mouth with a fork and tasted it carefully.

The meaty aroma blooms on your taste buds.

Just as she thought, the delicious texture of the moonfish was perfectly utilized!

"By the way, Ms. Pellew, how is your investigation going on with the Flower Witch?"

Chen Qi asked.

In the past few days, he has mastered the breathing method and body-building method, and is qualified to go to the D-level rift.

He happened to be hiding from the limelight recently, and since he had obtained the pale scale fruit from the White Tree Land, he was in urgent need of a reliable pharmacist.

Before the Flower Witch does anything big, Chen Qi wants to try and see if he can find her.

Once the Flower Witch gets involved in a big incident and is pursued by people from all sides, it becomes difficult to find her again.

"As expected, you are also interested in the Flower Witch."

Perru smiled mysteriously:

"The Flower Witch's whereabouts are very secretive. She has a unique way of hiding and has evaded my pursuit many times. This is top-secret intelligence that we at the White Dove Times have worked hard to collect. You cannot tell anyone else."

“…”

Chen Qi disagreed and showed a slightly questioning expression.

When did you become someone who could keep a secret?

The reason why the navy and the gangs are wary of Pellegrini is because of her big mouth!

You don't need to ask her questions deliberately when asking her for information.

She will speak on her own initiative.

Why don't you ask me to continue? Perru clenched her knife and fork, revealing a meaningful expression:

"Although the boss clearly stated that this information cannot be leaked, I, Perlu, like to go against the boss the most. I can't help it, it's just my personality."

"Actually, it's not impossible to tell you."

"After all, I am the most famous reporter of the White Dove Times. If even I don't know the clues of the Flower Witch, then no one else will know the clues of the Flower Witch."

Thanks to kopcn for the 100-point tip, and everyone for subscribing!
