Pan realized that from the moment Inspector Meteor entered the door, he had been leading him around. It was as if every step he took was being seen through by him, which was a very bad feeling.

and……

"Inspector Meteor, I don't understand what you mean!"

Luke smiled and said: "You know what I do. Collecting intelligence is the responsibility of us imperial agents. The World Bank belongs to the Shuojin people, and not all Shuojin people are in the World Bank. I have you brothers and sisters in my intelligence library."

data of.

You belong to the Elder Council of the Shuojin people, and Director Pan is even an elder candidate. Your job should be to assist the Council of Elders, teach and train young Shuojin people, and study the ancient Shuojin language.

Today, the two of you suddenly came to Raging Waves City as directors of the World Bank, so I concluded that the cooperation you discussed with the City Alchemists Association was just a cover-up, and you had other purposes."

Pan finally understood where his strategy went wrong, and at the same time he couldn't help but secretly admire the strength of the Golden Shield Empire's Secret Intelligence Bureau. It was indeed an intelligence agency with a long history.

But Pan still insisted: "Inspector, your Secret Intelligence Bureau's intelligence is lagging behind a bit. Yin and I did work in Shuojin Elders' House before, but not long ago, we were transferred to the World Bank.

We came here this time to look for excellent investment projects in Nutao City. We also researched the circulation information of gold certificates and collected first-hand data for the World Bank to provide better financial services in the future."

After getting the information he wanted, Luke calmed down the atmosphere: "Maybe my occupational disease makes me too sensitive, and everyone has to judge whether it will endanger the security of the empire.

Nutao City is an emerging world central city. The World Bank's investment here will be of great benefit to both of us. When you are interested in any project, it is best to fully communicate with all parties to avoid

It makes everyone unhappy.”

"Thanks for the reminder, Detective."

Luke asked again with confirmation: "The cooperation between the World Bank and the Urban Alchemists Association on the hydrogen airship must be terminated. If you are really interested in this project, please wait for a while... I guarantee you can get a big deal, far away

We can get far more rewards than we can talk about now.”

Luke didn't want to offend the God of Wealth too much, so he gave him a date so that he could meet again in the future.

Pan asked with interest: "Detective, do you think the hydrogen airship research project has not reached its bottom yet? It's not time to buy the bottom yet?"

"It's far from the bottom... Originally I wanted to swallow this project when it hit bottom, but I was afraid that I wouldn't have such a good appetite. If the World Bank is willing to share this cake, I would be happy to have a bank with good credit and financial resources

one's business Patner."

Pan asked: "At that time, will the World Bank be involved in the political struggle of the Golden Shield Empire?"

Luke made an offer that Pan could not refuse: "If the World Bank is willing to offer a price that I can't refuse, I can sell my share to you. The hydrogen airship has become a pure commercial investment.

It has nothing to do with politics, you can make money with confidence."

Pan didn't expect that Luke would take the initiative to give up his share. Although he didn't know why Luke gave up, the hydrogen airship was indeed a project worth investing in.

If this project can be obtained at a bargain price, then the risks involved will not be unbearable for the World Bank.

What the World Bank has to do now is... cooperate with Inspector Meteor to stab the City Alchemist Association's vitals again.

Although it is unethical to do so, the World Bank and the Urban Alchemists Association have not reached a formal cooperation agreement in the first place, so they naturally terminate it if they want.

As for what my brothers and sisters want to do when they come to Raging Wave City?

The original intention was to use this method to get acquainted with the celebrities in Raging Wave City and provide cover for the search for the lost dragon soul. Cooperation and termination of cooperation would achieve the same effect, and the process was not important.

"Inspector, I know what to do. Tomorrow I will express the World Bank's attitude to Speaker Grover and suspend negotiations on the hydrogen airship project."

Luke said: "Tomorrow, all the major newspapers in Raging Waves City will publish news about the negotiation between you and Grover on the hydrogen airship project."

"Then it will only cause trouble to the major newspapers in Raging Wave City. They need to print another issue of the World Bank's statement."

All the goals of Luke's visit were achieved, and he stood up and said goodbye in a good mood: "Director Pan, you are a very smart and visionary Shuojin person. I think one day in the future, I will call you Elder Pan.

.”

Pan's heart was knocked again.

Although he is an elder candidate in the Presbytery, most of the elder candidates have always been elder candidates. If there are no vacancies in the Presbytery, there is no need to fill them... If there are vacancies, all candidates will compete for the position.

Yue Xing saw something when he said this, it was just a polite compliment.

Pan found that he was still being led by the other person's nose, as if his eyes could see through him.

"Thank you, but if you want to become an elder, you must not only have the ability but also the qualifications. I am still young and have a lot to learn... The detective's methods are what I need to study seriously."

"Learn from each other! Improve each other!"

Luke left the Sparkling Hotel with satisfaction.

Pan's thoughts were so confused that he had no intention of continuing to practice. The first day he came to Raging Wave City was spent in such a situation. He didn't know what he would encounter in the future.

"Meteor is a guy I hate."

Yin said: "Pan, is there any relationship between the meteorite and the dragon soul we are looking for? He seems to know us very well."

"I don't know. Everyone in Nutao City who can produce 20,000 gold coupons is suspected. But why did the other party steal the dragon soul and leave such obvious clues? The other party is most likely to lead us to Nutao City. I think

To find him, we still need to use the people from Raging Wave City.

The Secret Intelligence Service has very strong intelligence capabilities and may really be able to help us. You can contact Meteor and see if you can find some useful clues through it."

Yin asked in confusion: "Am I going to touch the meteorite?"

"Using the excuse that I'm busy with official duties and don't have time to play with you... It's very important to us whether I can take advantage of this opportunity to become an elder. If I miss it, I will always be a candidate for elder doing odd jobs."

Yin hesitated for a moment and had to agree: "Okay!"

"Remember, you are a Shuojin person." Pan reminded his sister.

"I understand, Pan."

…

Early the next morning, the citizens who routinely sold newspapers to see what big melons could be eaten yesterday got their wish and saw a breaking news.

The World Bank is discussing with the Urban Alchemists Association about investing in hydrogen airships. Director Pan of the World Bank is very optimistic about the prospects of hydrogen airships and believes that replacing steam airships with hydrogen airships is a major trend in the future.

Although the two parties have not yet signed a formal investment agreement, Speaker Grover and President of the Alchemist Association said: The World Bank's investment has been finalized, and what is now being discussed is the division of responsibilities and benefits between the two parties.

This news gave those hydrogen airship investors a shot in the arm. They had been used to bad news for so many days and had given up hope. However, they did not expect that hydrogen airships could come back to life like this.

What is the World Bank?

A money-making machine for Shuojin people.

The World Bank's investment in the hydrogen airship project means that Shuojin people are very optimistic about the feasibility of the hydrogen airship. What is missing in the hydrogen airship project now? It is the public's confidence in this new aircraft.

The World Bank's investment is enough to make up for the negative impact caused by the Changxiang-class hydrogen airship accident, turning this project from a cesspool into a feast.

For a time, happy people rushed to tell each other. Those who regretted investing in hydrogen airships yesterday tried their best to invest money to increase their positions.

The previously noisy Cape District Secret Intelligence Bureau became quiet early this morning. Under the constraints of Inspector Meteor, the Imperial agents stayed in their respective departments, bragging, playing cards, and doing nothing.

It was as if he was knocked unconscious by this sudden blow, and he didn't know what to do.

Yomington was very happy to find Speaker Grover again. He was holding today's newspaper in his hand, as if he was holding a good news.

"Since coming to Raging Waves City, I have never felt so comfortable. Kestrel, Virgil, Edgar... I have been plotted by Meteor again and again, but I have not made him pay any price.

Speaker, you are so powerful. You easily defeated the Meteor's offensive and changed the offensive and defensive situation.

Now that the World Bank's investment in hydrogen airships has become known to everyone in Raging Wave City, all the spies from the Cape District Secret Intelligence Bureau have withdrawn. It seems that Meteor Star knows that its plan has failed and is preparing to shrink its defense.

Saxon Engineering also sent news that they are forming an intervention fleet to blockade Cape Port. In the future, no ship will enter Cape Port. If Meteorite takes over the repair project of Cape Port, it will be equivalent to carrying a burden on its shoulders.

Debts that are impossible to pay off.

The only thing you can do is... get out of Raging Waves City, this city is still ours."

Grover also looked proud.

The eldest princess specially sent a capable general to Raging Waves City, who first stirred up trouble here, and then was easily driven away by her, proving that she was worthy of the name of the Speaker.

"By letting Yuixing do such a thing in Raging Wave City, we can take care of Her Royal Highness the Princess' face and reorganize our internal staff.

This incident shows that there are still many loopholes within Raging Wave City, and we must take warning and find out all the unstable factors as soon as possible. The city council needs to hold a new election, and the Government Affairs Department also needs to replace some people."

Yomington said: "These are matters that require the Speaker to worry about. After the cooperation agreement with the World Bank is officially signed, I will return to the imperial capital to report the victory here to the Chief Assistant.

Everything that happens here is the radiation of the palace struggle, and many people are watching to see who can have the last laugh. The chief minister also has a lot of things to do, and a lot of fruits of victory to pick."

Yomington and Grover were exchanging business blows.

At this time, an assistant hurriedly walked in. He held a newspaper in his hand and said in a panic: "President... Director Pan of the World Bank has just issued an announcement through major newspapers in the city.

explain……"

Grover asked, "What did you say?"

"Director Pan said: Due to major hidden dangers in the hydrogen airship project, the World Bank has temporarily suspended investment cooperation negotiations with us."

The room fell into extreme silence. Grover and Yeomington seemed to be frozen on the spot, with frozen expressions and pale faces.

Backstab!

They did not expect that the World Bank would stab them in the back at this time.

The City Alchemist Association has just released the news that it will cooperate with the World Bank, and Grover even confirmed that this cooperation will be achieved in his capacity as Speaker.

As a result, less than half a day later, the World Bank actually said it would not cooperate.

Forget it if they don’t cooperate. They also say that there are major hidden dangers in the hydrogen airship project. This is like taking people 20,000 meters into the air and then throwing them down hard.
