Age of Arcane

Chapter 59 This is my home
Luke could feel Mrs. Tasia's distrust and hostility towards him.

He said: "Hanging pirates is the responsibility of the Imperial Navy and the Public Security Agency. We are imperial agents and are only responsible for maintaining the security of the empire. We have our standards for measuring who or what is endangering the security of the empire.

In my eyes, you...you are fishermen. "

"Fisherman? It seems that we are a very inconspicuous existence in your eyes, Inspector Meteor."

At this time, Lambert's men brought dinner.

After Lambert personally set the dinner plate for the four of Luke, he also asked a pirate to vacate a seat for himself, sitting on the side of the secret bureau.

Luke picked up the knife and fork and looked at the food on the dinner plate.

Toast, fried fish steaks, butter beef, and a pile of yellow mash potatoes.

An oak mug was filled with frothy ale.

"It's very inconspicuous... I drove a few broken ships on the route, and avoided the navy and large merchant fleets far away, and could only bully the merchant ships that were alone.

You abide by the pirate code, more because you are afraid of offending the Imperial Navy and encircling your Fishbone Island.

And judging by your clothes and the way you eat, it seems that your life is not as good as that of our fishermen in Cape District. "

Luke's words made Mrs. Tasia look at the pirates around her.

The clothes are tattered, and the food is devoured.

Life at sea is hard, and clothes rot quickly because of the seawater.It is difficult for pirates to obtain supplies. Many things cannot be bought with money, and they often cannot eat fresh food for a long time.

If you just look at the clothes and eating, you are really similar to a group of beggars.

Mrs. Tarcia wasn't offended by Luke's sarcasm.

She seemed to have a repulsive attitude, but she actually had high expectations for this meeting in her heart.

According to Lambert, the detective of the Bureau of Secret Intelligence is... very different from other imperial officials.

If Yubone Island can establish a cooperative relationship with the Haijiao District Secret Affairs Bureau, the living environment of its own ethnic group will definitely be improved a lot.

Luke also dared to be so arrogant because he knew that Mrs. Tasia would not dare to do anything to herself.

He knew the situation on Fishbone Island, and he had what they wanted in his hands, so he could put it on a higher shelf.

Only in this way can we gain an advantage in the next negotiation.

snort!I know what underwear you are wearing today... What kind of big-tailed wolf are you pretending to be with me here!
Isn't it just coercion?

In this field, you'll all have to call me Dad.

Luke looked at Mrs. Tarsia contemptuously.

It's just that although Mrs. Tasia was restraining, Luke's words made the pirates in the restaurant stop eating.

The fierce eyes shot with killing intent, making Luke feel like he was being targeted by the sharks.

Shelley, Pisco, and Karina all watched these pirates warily, ready to fight.

At this time, a group of ex-Mad Ax gang members came in one after another. They were all arranged by Lambert to strengthen the detective.

For a while, the atmosphere in the restaurant became more tense.

Just coming in to help the crowd, the pirates thought it was friendly troops cheering for their posture, and they became even more arrogant.

A few pirates who were sitting with Mrs. Tasia slapped the table and wanted to scold Luke.

But before they stand up...

Someone yelled, "Protect the detective!"

All the members of the original Furious Ax gang showed their weapons together, all aiming at the bewildered pirates.

The gang members waved their weapons and shouted: "Sit down! Sit down! Sit down! Be honest and continue eating!"

A pirate yelled to the familiar former Furious Ax gang: "Brother, my own..."

"It used to be, but it's not anymore! We are all imperial agents now!
Show some respect in front of us detectives! "

The pirates are even more stupid.

Aren't you guys from the Furious Axe?Why have they all become agents of the empire!
Undercover?

This number is too much!

The whole gang are all undercover agents of the Bureau of Secret Affairs?
The yelling in the restaurant disturbed those outside.Whether they are the original Furious Ax gang members or the friendly troops who came to support them, they have all been "recruited" to become spies of the Haijiao District Secret Intelligence Bureau.

Negotiating between your own detective and the pirates is of course the time to express yourself.

More armed men poured in from outside, surrounding the panicked pirates.

The scales on Mrs. Tasia's cheeks turned outward, her eyes opened wider, and the vertical pupils shrank into a thin slit.

"Lambert, I need an explanation, is this a trap for us?"

Lambert stood up and saluted Mrs. Tarsia.

"I'm sorry, Mrs. Tasia. Just now, all my companions in the Furious Ax Party and I have unanimously decided to accept the recruitment of Inspector Meteorite and join the Cape District Secret Affairs Bureau.

Now, we are the second ranger of the Haijiao District Secret Affairs Bureau.

Hereafter, it will be the headquarters of the Special Forces of the Haijiao District Secret Affairs Bureau.

Sitting in front of you is our Inspector Meteor, and next to you is Miss Black Mamba, Captain of the Cape Secret Service, and this is Mr. Pisco, Captain of the Cape Secret Service, First Ranger. I am Captain of the Second Ranger.

For this meeting, the Secret Affairs Bureau of Haijiao District has given you the highest courtesy.

And you and your staff have behaved in the utmost disrespect.

Mrs. Tarsia, it's not too late to correct your mistake... "

Mrs. Tasia did not expect that the headquarters of the Furious Axe Party would become a lair of the Cape Secret Service in a blink of an eye.

Faced with the pressure brought by so many "Empire Secret Agents", Mrs. Tasia had no choice but to straighten her snake body and bow to Luke to salute.

"Dear Meteor Inspector, please forgive me and my people for your negligence and offense...

May the God of the Sea bless you! "

Mrs. Tasia looked sideways at the subordinates who followed her.

All the pirates immediately stood up, put away their arrogance, and saluted Luke respectfully.

"Detective Meteor, may the God of the Sea bless you!"

"May the God of the Sea bless you..." Luke smiled and shouted to the pirates: "Little misunderstanding, all friends from the sea, please sit down! Brothers from the Bureau of Secret Affairs, go out!
Let the guests continue to eat, Mrs. Tasia and I have something to talk about. "

"Yes, Inspector."

The spies who rushed in went out one after another.

The pirates also sat down carefully.

Luke said to Mrs. Tasia: "Is the situation on Fishbone Island very bad?"

Mrs. Tasia, who was still alert, stared at Luke and asked, "Do you know the situation on Fishbone Island?"

"I know a little, but I can also guess." Luke cut off a piece of beef and ate it, and said, "The speed of ship replacement is too fast now. Soon there will be ships with pure steam turbines, and the hulls will be bigger and run faster." faster, sailing no longer dependent on the wind.

I heard that many countries are developing warships with all-metal hulls.

Even now, many ships have additional metal armor plating below the waterline.

Naga's advantage in the ocean is rapidly disappearing, your habitat is being eroded, the 'business' at sea is not as easy as before..."
