Chapter 156 The Seventh Princess’ Eve Festival Sets Sail!
Chapter 156 The Seventh Princess × Eve Festival × Set sail!
On August 1, Joey and others arrived in Cajin in batches.
At around six o'clock in the evening, Joey arrived at the Huihui Hotel. The agreed time was to start at seven o'clock, but there were already security personnel greeting him at the entrance of the Huihui Hotel.
However, from his contact with these people, Joey felt that there should also be some prince's security personnel among these people.
But these people were all ordinary people, at least in Joey's mind.
It is not ruled out that there may be people who hide their energy and disguise themselves as ordinary people, but in this case, there should be no need to hide themselves.
On the contrary, it is easier to pick out the strong ones from the ordinary applicants by actively revealing that they are in a state of entanglement.
But it’s not right, because there is another layer of complex relationship.
The upper-level princess can place guards into the lower-level prince's guard team.
In other words, even if the opponent's guard can use Nian, he may not be affiliated with the prince.
But someone who was installed by the upper princess.
Then this person's purpose needs to be investigated. Whether it is assassination or another purpose is worth thinking about.
Generally speaking, the situation in the Cajun royal family is a mess.
The lower prince, especially the prince born to the lower princess, is basically a piece of meat on the chopping block in the entire succession war.
If there is no external intervention, then these lower princes may not even know how they died.
The person who received Joey introduced him into a luxurious suite, along with three other people, all of whom were just ordinary people.
These three people are generally around thirty years old. Judging from the way they walk, Joey thinks that two of the three people should have good fighting skills. The last one has more calluses on his fingers. At the same time, The arms are also thicker, especially the right arm. Joey feels that this person should be good at using firearms.
As for himself, he looked gentle and gentle, not like he was applying for a job as a guard, but more like he was applying for a position like a housekeeper.
However, the three people instinctively kept a certain distance from Joey while walking.
This is not to say that the three of them look down on Joey, but that the three of them can see the other's fear of Joey in each other's eyes.
Obviously, the strongest among the four is Joey, who seems harmless to humans and animals.
This is Joey's deliberate display, and it is actually very simple for him to do this. As long as he adds a little ill-intention to the aura he exudes, then when he looks at the other person, the other person will feel to danger.
It will feel more like being alone in the wild and being targeted by a wild animal.
This is the experience Joey gradually gained as he continued to use circles.
After all, he often doesn't care about ordinary people, and even directly includes ordinary people who are close to him into his circle.
Therefore, it can be said that Joey understands better than most ability users about the impact of qi on ordinary people.
He doesn't mind showing off a little bit of his strength in order to get a job as a guard clearly.
This little trick will not reveal that he is a capable person, it will only make him stand out among ordinary people.
The reason for not revealing that he is an ability user is also very simple, because once exposed, he is likely to receive more attention. There is a mixed bag of good and bad in the guard. Until the investigation is clear, hiding one's strength is the best choice.
But hiding one's strength does not mean completely pretending to be a pig. After all, the guards recruited by the princes are not real pigs and must have a certain level of strength.
So what he has to do is actually follow Kira Yoshikage's office worker route, neither becoming the leader nor completely disappearing from the public. The third position is just right for him.
Entering the room, Joey saw the princess and prince sitting on chairs.
"The seventh princess, Sai Fanji and the twelfth prince, Mumuze Huiguorou..."
Joey immediately recognized the prince sitting there quietly, and also recognized the princess with her thin lips and raised eyebrows, who looked a bit sharp.
Kumuzawa is one of the seventh princess's two children, and the first prince to die in the succession war!
Joey was not surprised by her appearance, because under normal circumstances, it seemed that Kimuzawa's guard was Hanzo.
Now that Hanzo is competing to be the guard of the Fourteenth Prince, the Twelve Prince's place is naturally vacant.
The only surprise is that the seventh princess will appear here.
Because according to his information, the seventh princess can be said to be completely partial to the thirteenth prince.
Then the purpose of her appearance here is worth pondering. Is she planning to incorporate the guards of the Twelve Princes into the guards of the Thirteenth Prince?
If this is the case, Joey's strategy will need some adjustments.
After all, Kimuzawa will be an important tool for him and Kurapika, and he cannot be eliminated prematurely.
"This is the first time we meet. I am the twelfth prince, Mumuzawa. You should have seen my conditions. Those who are disappointed now can leave. Those who think they can continue to perform their tasks can stay."
There wasn't much expression on Mimuzawa's face, and the whole process was very bland.
And as she finished speaking, no one left.
Joey secretly observed it and saw the expressions of the other three people.
Seeing that no one was leaving, Mumuzawa started to ask the next questions, but her next questions were all one-on-one, so Joey and the other two left the room temporarily.
Joey was the second person to return to the room. At this time, the atmosphere in the room had completely changed. In addition to Mu Mu Ze and the princess, there were several more guards.
"Hello, I'm Dio, Dio Brando." Joey introduced himself politely.
"Looking at the information, Mr. Dio is a businessman from the Republic of Bartokia, so why do you want to become a guard?"
Kumuzawa made no sound at all, and a knitting basket even appeared in front of her, while she herself was knitting as the calm seventh princess spoke.
She looked as if she had left such an important matter as selecting guards to her mother, the seventh princess.
The question asked by the seventh princess was the most puzzling question she had when looking through Joey's information.
Joey did not use the identity that Milostone had arranged for him, because that identity was not as strong as his Dior identity.
After all, despite his identity, he has been hanging out in Cajin for several months. Even in some upper-class circles, many people know him.
"Because foreign businessmen are not recognized, it is difficult to obtain a ticket to board the ship." Joey gave a reason.
Of course, this reason was nonsense to him, because he had already obtained the ticket for the second floor.
But what he was talking about was another fact under the current situation of Cajun, that is, the tickets reserved for outsiders are very rare, and it is not easy to get one.
The Cajun people were in a state of fanaticism about this crossing.
Because the speeches of Nasby Gray Guoru and Bijan Denitro completely elevated this action of setting foot in the New World to a level that would leave a name in history.
At the same time, the New World also has endless resources and opportunities waiting for people to explore.
People who have no hope of promotion in an imperial country like Cajin will naturally regard this voyage as an opportunity to expand their territory and reach the sky in one step.
So in the current situation, a lower-level ticket has already fetched a sky-high price in the outside world, let alone an upper-level ticket.
"Well, does Mr. Dior know much about the upper-class merchants of Cajun? What kind of help can he provide us after boarding the ship?" The seventh princess looked at Joey seriously.
"Know some." Joey didn't hide anything. Since the other party valued his connections, he didn't mind naming some businessmen to reassure the seventh princess.
These businessmen were all deliberately befriended by him when he was collecting intelligence in Cajin. Some of them were able to board ships, and some were not able to board ships.
After hearing the names of these businessmen, the seventh princess nodded to Joey with great satisfaction: "So, does Mr. Dior have the ability to protect himself, or even the prince?"
"Of course, among the people who came for the interview, I dare not say that my strength can be ranked first, but I have good results in both fighting and fighting, and I am very good at dealing with assassination methods. After all, as you know, as a businessman in the Republic of Bartokia, there are always many pretenders."
While Joey was talking, he also handed over some certificates. These were all issued by his people in Bato Chiato, and even some of them were done for him by Milton.
The seventh princess was very satisfied with Joey: "Mr. Dior, please do the next step, but I have one more request.
As a condition, I will pay you in full in advance, but I hope that after boarding the ship, your focus will be on the thirteenth prince Malayan, and Mumuze will take care of himself, right? "
"Of course." Mumuze nodded obediently: "My mother and younger brother need the protection of guards more."
Joey frowned slightly, then nodded: "Okay."
He did not choose to refuse, because he knew very well that once he refused, the seventh princess would directly exclude him from the guard even if she was optimistic about him.
But this matter disgusted Joey.
Preferences must have certain limits. Malayang's life cannot be regarded as life, and Mumuze's life can be discarded at will!
Even if it is because of the fear of succession war, this approach is too low-level.
As Joey walked out of the room, he was thinking about the pros and cons of following the twelfth prince.
If Lee were to do so, the conditions proposed by the Seventh Princess would give him and Kurapika more opportunities to leave the Twelfth Prince's room.
This is a good condition for them to explore intelligence and understand the situation on the ship.
At the same time, the seventh princess's deployment of the twelfth prince's guards will also make it easier for him and Kurapika to turn the twelfth prince into a puppet or collaborator.
In terms of disadvantages, there aren't many.
So if you count it up, drawing the twelfth prince can still be regarded as a good draw for him and Kurapika.
As for the twelfth prince Kimuzawa himself, Joey didn't have much opinion.
Because this girl, who is about the same age as Xiaojie and the others, behaved very mediocrely throughout the whole process. She seemed to have long accepted the current arrangement, or in other words, accepted the fate she was about to face.
Joey sat down on the sofa in the hall. After waiting for a while, he saw the two people who came with him to apply for the job come out of Mumuze's room and hurriedly chose to leave.
In this way, the other party should have conducted some investigations. After all, the conditions proposed by the seventh princess were extremely favorable even for spies.
If the identity of the other party was not clear, these two people would not be eliminated at this stage.
Joey made a judgment in his mind, and at this time Kurapika was also introduced into the hall.
However, Joey and Kurapika only had a slight eye contact, and there was no other interaction.
Kurapika's interview was even simpler. After all, as a professional hunter, he had many advantages over Joey and others.
After becoming guards, Joey, Kurapika and others were assigned to hotel rooms.
These are included in the employment conditions issued by Mimuzawa. Once the application is successful, you cannot leave at will. Until you board the B.W. and sail, you must stay in the hotel to protect Mimuzawa's safety.
As for after boarding the ship, most of the guards will stay with the prince to protect his safety.
Joey didn't care at all about this kind of restriction, especially since his mobile phone and other communication devices were also removed in the process.
However, with the golden experience, Joey had no shortage of various restricted things to use from the beginning. Even Kurapika was equipped with various communication devices by him.
Of course, he just allowed him and Kurapika to get in touch with the outside world while being monitored.
And in the next week, Joey was not idle either.
He sent out ladybug bugs one by one to monitor the entire guard team.
He wanted to get all the information about the thirteen guards except him and Kurapika before boarding the ship.
According to the information obtained, the upper-ranking princess of Cajin has the right to monitor the lower-ranking princess.
Even the arrangements for the guards themselves were arranged by the princess who was directly above them.
In other words, if the mother of the twelve princes is the seventh princess, it is clear that at least six of the 15 guards are arranged by the upper princess.
As for the remaining seven people, excluding Joey and Kurapika, they are also a mixed bag, and it is unclear whether they have other tasks.
Seven days passed quickly in this kind of monitoring.
The evening of August 7th is the eve of sailing!
Kajin attaches great importance to this ferry, and the entire process will be broadcast live for people across the country to watch simultaneously.
Two hundred thousand people will arrive at the B.W in batches by ship and airship.
As the prince's guard, Joey naturally took the airship to the B.W.
But before that, he had to attend the Eve Ceremony and listen to the speech of Cajun King Nasbi Gray Guoru.
Although only 200,000 people boarded the ship, there were not only 200,000 Cajun nationals participating in this carnival, but millions of people gathered in the square that took a lot of time to build.
Directly in front of the square, facing the sea, a huge stage and screen were set up.
At around three o'clock in the afternoon, various analyzes and information about the Dark Continent began to be played on the big screen.
At the same time, more experts began to analyze navigation and unknown continents.
It wasn't until 5 p.m. that the well-known Cajun host took the stage, interrupting the experts' nonsense.
Joey didn't quite understand the aesthetics of the Cajun people, the kind of man with two pigtails and a short woman dressed in little balls. Just coming on stage and speaking, it instantly aroused everyone's interest!
"Ladies and gentlemen! The day has finally arrived!"
"Humanity! On the road to further development, the eve festival before setting off for the New World has officially begun!"
"Hello, people who have witnessed great history!"
"From now on! Everything you experience will be recorded in the annals of history. You are history!"
"Then, let him appear quickly!"
"The great man who realized the modern Noah's Ark, our king! Nasby Gray Guo - meat!"
The gorgeously dressed Nasby Gray Guoru appeared on the stage amidst the enthusiastic cheers of the people. He raised his hands into fists and raised his hands high. As the cheers gradually subsided, he pointed to the sky: "I just want to say one thing, I... ——The great King of Cajin! Hui~ The new continent is with me, Hui~”
As Nasby Hui Guoru finished speaking, fanatical shouts erupted in the square.
As a member of the guard, Joey watched everything happening in the square from a distance where the airship was parked.
Although he can be regarded as a witness to history, in this kind of enthusiasm, he does not feel excited. He even wonders, how many people who boarded the ship will be able to return to Cajun in the end?
As time goes by, perhaps this so-called farce of traveling to the New World will only be left with feathers in the end!
The Dark Continent is not that easy to explore. Even if it is the imaginary continent given by V5, there is no telling how many unknown dangers there will be.
Not to mention that King Cajun also has bad intentions. This voyage is destined to not be peaceful.
Sometimes ideals are beautiful, but reality makes people clearly know what kind of hardships are waiting for them in the process of chasing dreams.
Joey looked at the sea in the distance. What is his ideal? Where is the dream you want to chase?
Joey sometimes doesn't understand very well, but he has been accumulating. Maybe now he is also on the journey to pursue his dreams!
The roar of the mountain and the tsunami of cheers interrupted Joey's thinking.
It turned out that after the words of King Gray Guoru, the fourteen princes of Bjandenitro and Cajin began to appear.
Then it was simple. King Gray Guoru boarded his customized spaceship during the live broadcast and began to fly towards the B.W.
Joey and other guards also began to board the airship, and the structure of the B.W could be clearly seen from a distance from the airship.
Overall, the B.W looks like a huge whale with bared teeth.
And in the center of the whale's head, there is a huge cruise ship in the traditional sense.
That is also where the first floor of B.W is located, where many princes live, and where the succession war will begin.
At the same time, the huge chimney on the cruise ship is always spraying smoke, which also means that the B.W is ready to sail at any time.
There was a dinner after boarding the ship, and the people at the banquet were all Cajun political and business celebrities and elites from all walks of life.
The princes will be the focus of the party.
Joey and other guards were outside the venue, waiting for the banquet to end before escorting their prince back to the reserved room.
The security of the banquet is entirely handled by the association and the Cajun King's Army. The identities of the people participating in the banquet will be screened at all levels, and if there is any problem, they will be eliminated.
Joey's disguised identity will most likely be discovered in this case.
Because Kajin used lie detectors and other machines to screen everyone's identities, he would also be interrogated by the King's Army once he was found to be lying.
It can be said that the prince was fully protected.
But Joey's view on this is that if you can't do it under such circumstances, don't do it. Otherwise, even if the assassination is successful, the result will be a one-for-one loss, which will be a loss for him.
Besides, he had no idea about the life of Prince Cajin.
So he followed the team honestly.
At around four o'clock in the morning, the Eve Festival was finally over after everyone had boarded the ship. In the banquet hall, the princes began to leave in order. Joey and Kurapika followed the guards to remove the twelfth prince Kimuzawa and the seventh princess. Sent back to the place of residence.
But during the escort, both Joey and Kurapika knew that the succession war had begun.
Because in the prince's room, a huge mind beast appeared to protect her!
