Chapter 437 The Flower With Wings
Before Murphy could reply, Hoddle opened the door and walked in.

"Is something wrong? Hoddle?" Murphy sat up from the bed.

"Sorry, so you haven't gotten up yet." Hoddle looked around vigilantly.

"What?" Murphy asked.

"There is some water leakage on the roof of my room, mind if I go to your bathroom to check?" Hodell turned his gaze to the closed bathroom door.

"Of course." Murphy said calmly.

Hoddle immediately went to the bathroom. When he was at the door, he turned his head to look at Murphy. Murphy was leaning on the back of the bed, combing his hair, not paying attention to him at all.

Hoddle pushed open the door, walked into the bathroom and checked it carefully.

When he found the bathtub, he deliberately bent down, sniffed at the drain, and then sniffed the towel.

"Your room is not leaking, or the water pipe in my room is broken." After a long time, Hoddle came out.

"Oh, do you need someone to fix it?"

"No, I'll take care of it myself." After Hoddle finished speaking, he looked around again and went out.

It wasn't until the sound of his footsteps disappeared that Cang Ling and the others got out from under the mattress.

"Phew! I almost suffocated!" Phoebe sucked in wildly.

"Thank you for hiding us under the mattress." Cang Ling gasped, "Otherwise we might have been discovered."

"You're welcome," Murphy said flatly.

At this moment, Cang Ling suddenly saw something.

"What is this?" Cang Ling picked up a dead flower from under the bed board.

Murphy glanced at it and replied, "It's a flower from Hardy. He likes it because it looks like a bird."

"Any more?"

"Throw it away, I don't like to have plants in the room."

"Is that so..."

Cang Ling lowered his head, held the withered flower in his hand and looked at it repeatedly for a long time.

Seeing Cang Ling's reaction was a bit strange, Kali asked, "Does this flower have any special meaning?"

"This is the flower of Davidia involucrata." Cang Ling stared at the flower and replied, "Dove tree is a very rare plant, and it is only distributed in a small amount in Maolan. Does Hardy often bring this kind of flower back?"

"I don't know who brought it back, but this kind of flower is often placed in his study."

"So, Hardy or his subordinates often go to Maolan?" Phoebe asked hurriedly.

"Maolan seems to be very close to the second border?" Kali opened the map.

"Yes, Maolan is located between the second border and the west coast, close to the Dusk Sea. If we defeat Sifli and continue westward, we will be able to reach Maolan." Cang Ling pointed out Maolan on the map s position.

Everyone gathered around and saw that Maolan was just in the northwest of the Dusk Sea.

"What was Hardy doing in that place?" Phoebe asked suspiciously.

"This place was one of the first areas that Hardy captured." Cang Ling took out all of Hardy's action records, "and the next few battles almost all revolved around this area."

"So, the real giant breeding base may be located in Maolan?" Phoebe said pleasantly.

"It's possible."

"If the base is in Maolan, it can explain why Hardy annexed Sifli's territory so quickly." Kali said, "Because he is afraid that we will take the opportunity to expand westward and regain the Dusk Sea."

"Then what are you waiting for! Let's go to Maolan now!" Phoebe stood up excitedly.

"No, no." Cang Ling stopped Phoebe, "Our mission this time is to search Hardy's mansion. Now that the search has been completed, we should go back and report immediately. If you want to continue with the new mission, you must wait to go back and report to the head Do it later."

"Yes, don't act on your own." Kali also said.

"Well...well, anyway, we'll have to investigate in the end." Phoebe scratched her head.

"Are you going back?" Murphy asked.

"Well, we will go back and report the results of this infiltration investigation and discuss the next step."

"Oh." Murphy didn't say any more.

That night, Cang Ling, Phoebe, and Kali took advantage of the darkness to sneak back to the beach along the original road, then found the diving suit hidden in the sea before, and swam back to Felton's boat.

"Huh? All three are back? Did it go well or not?" Felton asked while lying on the side of the boat.

"I couldn't find the giant's base, but I got relevant information." Cang Ling said while crawling.

"Okay, as long as you come back alive." Felton pulled Cang Ling onto the boat.

After returning to the boat, Cang Ling showed Felton Davidia involucrata flowers, and described the process of the search.

"You said that the giant is a product of the Downton Group. I believe it to a certain extent. But it is unreasonable for Downton not to leave the giant to his son, but to a night devil." Felton said while flipping Look at Hardy's daily record.

"The above are all my inferences, and there is no substantive evidence yet. But I believe that evidence will be found, just go to Maolan to search again."

"Hehe, you haven't understood the character of the people in the parliament. If you can't produce definite evidence, don't let them support your plan."

"Then I will go to investigate alone, so it won't cost much."

"Don't say such childish things, you are a sergeant major now. When you can't achieve your goals, you should learn to be devious, not act recklessly."

"Then do you have any suggestions?"

"Me? If it were me, I would choose the method of threatening behind the scenes, which is the easiest way." Felton smiled slightly, "But this is not suitable for you, because you don't have those guys in your hands. I suggest you use the merchant's method." To think about problems, remember a principle of businessmen: as long as there are enough benefits, risks are not a problem.”

"As long as there are enough benefits, risks are not a problem..." Cang Ling repeated it several times, and some vague thoughts could not help but arise in his mind.

After returning to Lagrange, Lyudmila couldn't help but be overjoyed to see them returning safely. She had already prepared the worst plan for their complete annihilation.

"Although this search failed to find the giant's hiding place, it has obtained some important information. I will send this information to the Queen now." Cang Ling was about to go to the telegraph room without thinking about changing clothes.

"Wait." Lyudmila grabbed Cang Ling, "You tell me the result first, and then we discuss it and send it to the Queen."

Cang Ling was stunned for a moment, and then quickly realized that Lyudmila wanted to screen and process the content of the report.

"Okay, let's go to the meeting room and talk." Cang Ling agreed.

"Sergeant Major! Phoebe, Kali!" Ryan and Charlene ran over in surprise.

"We are going to have a meeting now, you go back and talk about the past, go back to work first!" Lyudmila shouted.

"Oh, okay!" Ryan and Charlene hurriedly turned 180 degrees and ran back.
