Volume 1: Raging Waves City Chapter 105: Might and Sandpaper
Sandpaper's voice is in stark contrast to her image, and there is another difference between her cute look with pink twin ponytails and a drink bottle and her mature tone.
In comparison, Wei Meng's physique and aura are very much in line with his name. With his iron body sitting there, he looks like a powerful person.
In order to distance themselves from their former selves, the Mechanical Clan generally no longer use their previous names, but instead name themselves after some of their own characteristics.
For example: mighty, iron-faced...
What puzzled the mechs in Diagon Street was that Sandpaper followed the rules of the mechs in Diagon Street but never admitted that she was a mech. No one knew her past, only that she was a very powerful mech modifier, with the same level as Wei Meng.
The mechanical modification shop she opened is the strongest competitor of the Wei Meng Mechanical Modification Shop.
Wei Meng has great respect for the little girl next to him who is not even as tall as his legs, and has always wanted to recruit her into the Diagon Street mechanical clan.
"Since your store is located on Diagon Street, the troubles on Diagon Street are your troubles. Come with me to meet this Inspector Meteor. He is so respected by the people at the docks. We cannot offend him easily."
“Okay…” Sandpaper, who had drunk a little of the “drink”, spoke in a slightly more normal voice, but still with a strong sense of machinery. “He controls the entire dock, and from now on, our cargo in and out will be controlled by him.
It's uncomfortable to think about it, can we kill him?"
"If you want to do it, I won't stop you, but not here." Wei Meng said to his men behind him, "Go, ask Inspector Meteorite to come here."
"Yes, Mighty Boss."
Sandpaper raised his eyebrows and stopped talking, as if he was really thinking about how to assassinate a senior imperial agent.
Not long after, Luke came in with Shelley and the others.
Wei Meng stood up and saluted Luke, and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, Detective . The people below were ignorant and offended you. Please forgive me. He has also received the punishment he deserved."
Luke did not return the greeting to Wei Meng. Instead, he said in an arrogant tone, "I know that the people below are ignorant, so I usually take more care of them. Fortunately, I came today. If someone from the Imperial Military came... it would definitely not end like this."
Wei Meng controlled his temper.
Everyone in the entire venue knew that the detective from the Cape District Secret Intelligence Bureau was here to find them. If anything went wrong with him here, the imperial army would definitely rush in.
Tolerate……
Must endure.
"I apologize again. Sir Inspector, please take a seat... If there is anything I can do for you, please let me know."
Luke handed his hat and cane to Kylena and sat down on the sofa. He looked up and saw Sandpaper sitting next to him.
"Sandpaper is here too. Great! I heard that your mechanical modification technology is top-notch. My subordinate's pair of mechanical arms should be eliminated. You can design and modify a pair for him."
Pixar, who had just stood behind Luke, looked at Kylena first and then at Shelley. He quickly understood from Shelley's eyes and quickly bent down to ask, "Inspector, I'm the only one with a robotic arm here. Do you want to replace it with a new one for me?"
"Nonsense! Go...let Sandpaper Girl show you."
"Yes, Inspector."
Pisco saluted Luke happily.
This guy is a famous sandpaper machine modification expert on Diagon Street!
Thinking that he would soon be able to get a pair of robotic arms modified by the Sandpaper Master, Pisco walked towards the sandpaper with joy on his face.
But then Sandpaper said, "I didn't agree to take this job."
Pisco stopped halfway through his journey and looked at Luke with some grievance, not even close to his usual ferocious look.
Luke said: "Did I ask for your opinion? Since your shop is operated within the Golden Shield Empire, I have the right to recruit you to serve as an imperial civil servant, and of course I will pay you the corresponding remuneration.
Pisco, in the past... all the expenses of your two arms will be reimbursed by the Secret Service."
There was such a good thing. Pisco shouted, "Yes, Detective. Thank you, Detective!"
But Sandpaper still said, "Inspector Meteorite, don't mess with me... I won't take this job!"
Wei Meng felt the murderous intent emanating from Sandpaper at this moment, and thinking of what she had just said about killing Meteorite, he quickly tried to smooth things over.
"Inspector... leave Brother Pisco's arms to me. I will design and modify a pair of mechanical arms for him free of charge."
Pisco thinks that's fine.
The level of power is comparable to sandpaper, and it's free!
But Luke stared at Sandpaper and said, "This job must be done by Sandpaper himself. If you don't want to do it, come back to the Secret Service with us..."
Wei Meng, she is not from your mechanical tribe, you won't stop me, will you? "
Wei Meng didn't know why Inspector Meteorite was so against Sandpaper, but Sandpaper didn't admit that he was a member of the Mechanical Clan, so he really had no reason to offend such a powerful Secret Intelligence Bureau.
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became tense, as if a fight was about to break out.
Shelley put his hand on the gun handle, and Kalina also realized something was wrong and secretly grasped the magic wand in her sleeve.
Several mechanical people looked at Wei Meng, waiting for his instructions.
Sandpaper held the beverage bottle tightly, and the murderous intent in his eyes grew stronger.
Wei Meng could only persuade: "Master Detective..."
But before Wei Meng could finish his words, Sandpaper suddenly said, "Okay, I'll take the job... Big guy, come with me to my shop."
Sandpaper stood up from the sofa, walked out with her ponytails swinging. Before leaving, she turned back and complained to Wei Meng: "You insisted on keeping me here, and you got me into trouble this time!"
Pisco was a little scared, worried that he would follow the sandpaper and get cut on the operating table.
But under the stern gaze of Inspector Meteorite, he could only follow Sandpaper away nervously.
After the door was closed, Luke lit a cigarette for himself to ease the tense atmosphere.
This little girl appears fierce on the outside but is actually a coward on the inside!
It's time to get down to business.
“Weimeng, I came to Diagon Street this time just to recruit you mechanical people.
Name your price! "
Wei Meng, who had just felt relieved that the crisis was resolved, felt his heart sink again because of Luke's words.
Why doesn't this detective play by the rules?
How can we start talking about this kind of thing right away!
"Inspector Meteorite, the business we run here should have nothing to do with the Secret Service, right? If you need mechanical modification, you can come here to find us at any time.
We don't want to be Imperial agents."
"I didn't ask you to join the Secret Service. Instead, I recruited you on behalf of the Yanyang Group. I will soon take over the entire Cape Port, and your import and export routes will be in my hands.
I am very optimistic about the technology mastered by your mechanical race, as well as your own combat effectiveness and discipline. The mechanical race will become an important pillar of the Yanyang Group."
"Inspector, are you threatening us?"
