Chapter 115 I’m catching up with you
It’s just a night.
The outside of the Thorn Flower Building has not changed at all, but the inside of the cave has changed a lot.
Lynch did not keep a distance and use the elevator to send messages. Instead, he entered the cave alone with a fresh watermelon specially bought from the pier.
Dozens of these things are usually stored as drinking water during long voyages, so they are called water melons. This thing is rich in multiple vitamins and plant fiber, as well as a lot of water. It is suitable as a gift for Maya. For this reason, Lynch did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to buy one.
【Oh, a big price of a penny. 】
Lin Qi's expression remained unchanged, as if he hadn't heard anything, and handed the big water melon to Maya who was surprised.
Of course the female reporter didn’t do it for a surprise. She just thought she wouldn’t see anyone for a long time. But someone broke in just the next day. Fortunately, she didn’t sleep, otherwise she could meet him in her dream again. See you.
Although I think her behavior of not knowing the price of water melon is a bit stupid, but... forget it.
Taking advantage of Maya's opportunity to pack the gifts, Lynch also looked around.
It seems that the witness protection plan is being implemented smoothly, and Mr. V has already allocated a lot of things.
A portable tent, a complete set of camping equipment, a few changes of clothes, and even a set of cosmetics, of course not from a luxury brand.
And looking at Maya, she has actually put on light makeup today. She still needs to put on makeup in a dark environment where no one is likely to visit?
This almost raised a substantive question in Lynch's head, are all women so crazy?
Ask the police officer next time if you have a chance. You probably won’t get stepped on.
"As far as I know, there are seven printing presses in Rhine City. Four are controlled by four major newspapers. One is in the city hall, one is in the Duke's Palace, and the last one is in Lucas Bookstore."< br>
After listening to Lynch’s explanation, the female reporter thought for a while and said doubtfully:
“However, you may have some misunderstandings about the printing press, and it is not that easy to produce printed matter. ”
"Huh?"
"Printing is a big project, and the cost is very high. Normally, you need to print 5,000 to 10,000 copies at a time to reduce the cost. Any newspaper with a printing press will not It may be allowed to use the printing machine once for a few pieces of paper. "Huh? What if it is Party A's request?"
"It's not a matter of money. Printing a few pieces of paper and then shutting down the machine would cause great harm to the machine. No one would be willing to do this unless the price offered by the other party is high enough to offset the damage to the machine. But this kind of thing is too exaggerated. Yes, if someone did something that went against common sense, it would have spread throughout the industry. But there is no news now, which means no one does such a stupid thing."
Hi, am I wrong?
Lin Qi pondered for a moment and asked: "There can be no exceptions?"
"Indeed."
"What?"
"First, he printed tens of thousands of them at one time."
Lynch shook his head. With so many identical cards, just storing them was a problem. Doing this was just causing trouble for himself.
"Then the second possibility is that if you have a printing press, of course you can use it however you want. At most, the workers operating the machine will be a little confused, but if you take care of it, the news will not be leaked."
“The other party bought a printing press specifically for this matter?”
"Not necessarily." Maya stretched out her hand and said, "Show me the printed matter."
"Forget it." Lynch shook his head and said, "The image itself is mysterious. Ordinary people can see it. Not good.”
“It’s not good to see a ghoul?” Maya smiled, “It’s already like this, what’s there to worry about? Besides, you’ve done so many things for me. Can't I help you?" Lin Qi smiled bitterly and was speechless for a long time. He honestly took out the pattern and handed it over.
Looking through it several times by the kerosene lamp, the female reporter said thoughtfully: "It's not a new one, it's obviously an old machine."
"Can you tell?"< br>
"Of course, the difference in printing effects is so obvious that you can see it at a glance."
"Okay, maybe I'm blind. In short, this means that the controller of the seven machines or someone of all people One, related to this matter, even that Jefferson?"
"This is the most likely, but other special cases cannot be ruled out."
"Ignore the special case for now, can the scope be narrowed down a little more now?"
"Well, the possibility of the machines in the City Hall and the Duke's Palace can be ruled out. Those two machines don't have much chance of use, and the effect should be the same as the new one. It's almost the same. The one in the bookstore can also be excluded. The machine that prints books is different from this one and is more special. The remaining ones are the printing machines of the four newspapers. The one in our newspaper can also be excluded. I am very familiar with that one. Yes, the color is lighter than this. It can be ruled out that the Rheinische Zeitung machine is missing a corner."
"Huh?"
"It's not the machine, it's the picture printed by that machine. There will be a small piece of ink missing in the upper left corner. It's hard for people who don't understand to see it, but we all know it." From the pile of yesterday's and today's newspapers provided, he picked out two and threw them to Lynch. Lynch read them several times and finally made up his mind.
Can't tell at all.
"So there are two most likely ones left?"
"Actually, there is only one. The remaining two newspapers are Rand News and Rheinland Business Daily, but Rand News is headquartered in Noland, Rheinland The management of a branch is very complex and cannot be decided by a few people, but the Rhine Business Daily is different. It mainly publishes business information from Rand and Friedman, and was founded by several Rhine businessmen. "
Lin Qi's heart beat a few beats faster and he said in a deep voice, "Are there any other clues?"
"I don't know much about this newspaper. The actual controllers are relatively low-key and rarely show up. Not many people have met them. It is said that they started their business by trading with the Fredman Kingdom. They still have a fleet. There is trade between the two countries from time to time."
Lin Qi's face darkened, and he had realized the seriousness of the problem.
If this is what these actual controllers did, they also have an international trade fleet. After they get it, they can hide things in the trade ships and send them to the Friedman Kingdom at any time. The official belief does not seem to include the Church of Dark Night. The control of the Church of Dark Night has been greatly weakened. Once things are transported, it will be difficult to get them back. It seems that they dare to rob the Church of the Night because they have this escape route.
The possibility is too great not to be on guard against it.
“Huh, luckily I have a professional like you, otherwise I would never have thought of this.”
“It’s good if I can help.” The female reporter breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, "I feel much better."
"Don't worry, live here with peace of mind for the time being. I'm trying to figure out a solution to your problem, and I already have some clues. I'm waiting for news from the other party and will let you know as soon as there is any progress. Thank you very much for today."
Taking off his hat and bowing deeply, Lynch hurriedly left the underground cave and rushed to the Dark Night Cathedral in Crown Plaza as quickly as possible.
After talking secretly for a while, five carriages rushed out of the church and sped towards the harbor of the Twin Towers District - White Bird Port.
Just halfway, a fast horse came towards us, bringing ascertaining news.
“The Rheinland Business Daily’s fleet happened to be docked at White Bird Port and is replenishing supplies. It will soon set sail for Friedman’s Port of Reeves.”
I'm catching up with you this time, don't even think about running away.
