Chapter 238 Encountering a Strange Person
You wouldn't have thought the owner of this small bar was quite capable. When asked about the merchant ships that had visited here in July, he rattled off a long list, including Bizhnis.
Shark Chili asked a little about Bizness.
The bar owner answered questions fluently, from appearance to clothing, to the size of the chamber of commerce and the logo of merchant ships, which made Zhang Da somewhat doubt his professionalism.
After confirming that this person was not just making up a name to fool people, Shark Chili asked, "So where did he go later?"
"Later?" The bar owner lowered his voice. "Someone saw him being taken away by a few men in black suits on the street. They said they were investigating him for smuggling and tax evasion."
Black suit? Could he be CP5? Zhang Da also remembered that he had once casually lied to him, and the two CP5 investigators were quite excited at the time, so did they really arrest this guy?
Zhang Da also hurriedly asked, "Has there been any news since he was taken away? Do you know where he was taken?"
"It's unclear where he was caught... Anyway, no one has ever seen him on this island again. You know, if you investigate smuggling and taxation for people like him, you'll find the real deal."
The bar owner was very knowledgeable when talking about this kind of thing , and Zhang Da had reason to suspect that this guy had done a lot of tax evasion. There were really not many businessmen like him who were honest and upright.
The boss continued, "But I think these are mostly excuses. Either he offended someone, or someone took a fancy to the Bailey in his hand. But I heard that he was released later. He must have been severely punished."
The clues were lost again, and the boss didn't know where Biznis was captured or released. After all, they wouldn't follow officials of the World Government just for some fun.
"Spandam's ability to do things is not good. Why let him go if you want to arrest him? But he really has nothing to do with Hades' affairs. It is possible to avoid disaster by losing money." Zhang Da also remembered that Spandam also loved money. He was bribed by Tezoro in the movie Golden City.
Next, Zhang Daye and Shark Chili chatted with the boss for a while, and only paid the bill and left after they were sure that he didn't have much valuable information.
When leaving, the chubby Tom was carried out by Zhang Daye and Ye Yan one after the other. It was difficult to hug him in his current state.
Maybe because he ate too much, Tom's digestion was particularly slow today.
"It's a pity that the judicial ship has already left, otherwise we could ask the old judge to help ask CP5." Rui Mengmeng said regretfully, and then randomly denied her own idea, "Forget it, he may still be worried about the last case, and it's not good to cause trouble for him again."
Zhang Da also said: "Let's stay on this island for two days, and then go to the other two islands to inquire. If there is still no clue, we will have to go to Alabasta next. We don't need to confront Crocodile head-on, we just need to capture another high-level agent, such as the vulture and sea otter who escaped last time."
In fact, Zhang Da was also wondering why Lao Sha was so cowardly. Logically, Vulture and Sea Otter should have returned his portraits and other things long ago. Why didn't they send anyone to retaliate? They killed three senior agents.
He didn't know that he had brought so much trouble to Crocodile when he mentioned to the navy of Shampoodi that they should pay attention to Baroque Works. Crocodile was generous enough to put recruiting him as the first option, but he was too busy recently and had not decided how to implement it.
…
For the next two days, everyone found a hotel on the island to stay temporarily, so these two days became a carnival in various restaurants in the food city of Puchong Island, and also a test for the chefs.
Every chef who musters the courage to challenge the appetite and eating speed of these big eaters will eventually end up collapsing in the kitchen from exhaustion.
“It’s a shame for a chef not to be able to feed his guests enough!” I don’t know which radical chef was the first to shout this out.
Since then, many chefs have called November 9th to 11th every year the Days of Shame, to motivate themselves to work hard on their training as chefs. The goal of the training is to cook intensively for three consecutive days and three nights.
Zhang Da and his friends were not aware of these things. At this time, they had already taken the sea train to the next stop of Puchong Island, Saint Pluit, also known as Carnival City.
I don’t know what kind of event is being held on the island today. Many people are wearing strange costumes, and some are wearing various masks and headgear. It feels like Halloween.
In this atmosphere, Perona's little princess outfit seemed mediocre, but Shark Chili and Brook were very popular.
People keep asking where they get their robot suits and skeleton costumes made to order; they look so realistic.
Shark Chili was okay. He smiled and told them that he was a robot, which caused bursts of exclamations.
Brooke was in a complicated mood. Being popular should be a happy thing, but this situation was really not what he wanted. With his personality, he couldn't get angry with these kind and uninformed passers-by. For a moment, this optimistic skeleton was surrounded by low pressure.
Ye Yan beat his chest and stamped his feet: "If I had known earlier, I would have taken the sea train back to pick up my custom-made clothes. It's such a shame not to participate in such an interesting event."
"There are so many people playing the roles of demons and monsters here, why don't you play the role of a night watchman, and act out demons and monsters in your true colors." Zhang Da also made an unreliable suggestion, and even found an excuse for himself, "Art comes from life, and playing yourself is the most difficult."
"Although I know you are talking nonsense, but you still have some philosophical truth in it." Ye Yan refused, "But there are no night watchmen in this world, and art can't be completely divorced from reality, right?"
Everyone walked along, watching all sorts of chaotic performances, and sometimes they would participate in some interesting roadside games, such as ring tossing, Mr. Sledgehammer, etc., which were actually a bit bullying.
However, the slight sense of guilt in my heart quickly disappeared after I discovered that they had tampered with the props. Winning a few more prizes from them felt like I was being brave.
Ye Yan released the flag monsters to inquire for a long time but there was no valuable information. Zhang Da also thought that there would be no gains today, but unexpectedly, he saw some familiar costumes among a group of people in strange costumes.
A man looked to be more than five meters tall, with exaggerated feathers on his head, two red facial stripes on his face, and a red cloak on his body.
The other one was wearing yellow clothes and had two chains wrapped around his body. The most distinctive feature was that his hair was evenly distributed around his head, like an electric fan . When he opened his mouth, you could see a stick-drawn clown face painted on his teeth.
Tom's eyes lit up when he saw the two men, as if he had suddenly got an inspiration. He dressed himself up as a tribal chief, held a spear in his hand, clapped his hands and made a weird sound: "Oh oh oh oh oh oh..."
