Just a passing pirate

As soon as he finished speaking, Trisbet immediately let go of Su An's shoulders and ran forward quickly.While running, he said with a smile: "You should have bought the apples in area 43. The taste is a bit sandy. You shouldn't believe those unscrupulous souvenir vendors. Next time, go to Doc's house in No. 42 to buy them. There's a discount for saying my name."

"You bastard" Su An screamed.

He was wondering why the fruits he bought a while ago always became less frequent every other day. He once thought there were mice in the room and even borrowed the lieutenant's cat to prevent them for several days.

It seems the truth is out now.

Destination arrived.The road wasn't that far to begin with, and we arrived at Area 57 in a short time.

I looked at the several large factories built in the gaps under the tree roots, the boats with many trees docked in the waterway next to the factories, and the huge tree roots.Although I have seen a lot of them, I can't help but sigh every time I come to Su An.

How on earth did this thing grow so big?

Therefore, it is indeed an unscientific different world.

While sighing, Su An was touched on the shoulder.

I saw Trisbeth arranging her clothes next to her and asked: "Is it better for you or me to go up this time?"

"Come on." Su An replied. "You should be more familiar with this, I can't do it."

"No problem." Trisbeth made a gesture.Holding the knife, Su An stepped forward first. After loading the flintlock gun and making sure it could be fired at any time, Su An took a step behind and followed Trisbet.

Although this is a legal zone, there are often pirates disguised as merchants who come here to make purchases. I'm sure there will be such a lunatic who sees himself and his companions wearing navy uniforms and has a hard time thinking.So be fully prepared and prepare for the worst.

Most of these factories are related. When Sue Ann and Trisbet entered Area 57, they were seen by others and tipped off.Before the two of them reached the gate of the factory, they saw a middle-aged man standing at the gate from a distance.

Until he got closer, he hurriedly greeted him.

"My name is Dodge. Why do two navy masters have time to come here?"

As the saying goes, don’t hit the smiling person.This man came over with a smile on his face, and when he asked Su An softly, everyone would feel good about them.

But Su An had seen this scene too many times. He ignored the man and turned to look at Trisbet.Now, he plays a subordinate.

And Trisbet is also a veteran.Facing the man's smiling face, he remained stern.He spoke.

"Hello, Mr. Dodge, we also belong to Naval Base No. 63. This is my naval ID." After saying that, Trisbet took out a book that was the same as the clothes he was wearing.Su An also took it out of his pocket.

After making sure that the middle-aged man Dodge had seen clearly, he took the book back.

"After reports, we suspect that the coating factory here is coating pirate ships, so we need to investigate. Please cooperate."

"What's going on? Mr. Navy." After hearing the answer, Dodge said quickly. "How dare we do coating work with pirate ships. If you don't believe it, you can go to the office with me and check the books. We are a serious business."

Trisbet and him looked at each other for a few times, then smiled and said, "Okay, then I'll check the ledger." He turned to Su An and said, "Xiao Su, go check and see if there are any suspicious ships at the coating point."

"Yes, yes," said the man named Dodge. "There is absolutely no problem on our side. Well...Xiao Qian, take this Navy Lord to see the coating room. He can go anywhere."

"Okay, boss." A scantily clad young woman came out.He said to Su An: "Officer Su, please come this way."

This is a small factory, not large in scale, with only a few docks, and the ships at the docks are even rarer. There are only three small and medium-sized ships carrying out coating work.

Of course, small and medium-sized ships are only compared to naval warships.

Looking at it now, these ships are much taller than me.

Seeing Su An looking at the three ships, the woman next to her named Xiao Qian quickly explained: "These three ships are from a chamber of commerce. The Grape Chamber of Commerce sent these three ships here for coating work seven days ago. , in order to avoid the harassment of pirates, I plan to sail in shallow water to reach my destination.”

"Yes." Su An replied, standing on the dock and taking a good look around the boat.The three ships are also the most sailboats I have seen in daily life, and they are flying a somewhat strange flag.After maintenance, no traces can be seen.After walking around for several times, Su An didn't see any big problem.

This action attracted the attention of the craftsmen who were still doing coating work on the ship, but they all looked away after seeing the clothes and gun on Su An.

Su An caught something out of the corner of his eye, so he stared at the wooden barrels piled among the piles of debris and asked the female secretary named Xiao Qian: "What is that?"

"It's just discarded coating fluid."

“Can you open it and take a look?”

"......certainly."

Su An opened the lid with a click and looked inside.

This is indeed a coating fluid. Su An has lived in the Chambord Islands for so long, so of course he can recognize it.

The coating liquid applied to the hull has been specially processed so that it can escape the special environment of the Chambord Islands without breaking, and can resist the pressure of the deep sea to a certain extent.The purer the coating fluid, the greater its resistance to deep sea pressure.Therefore, the price of a barrel of high-quality coating liquid is often equivalent to a huge Bailey.

Sue Ann reached into the bucket and dipped some in her fingers.Some impure tender white coating fluid was pulled up.The description of this color may be a bit weird, but Su An really doesn't know how to describe it. If she had to say it, it would be like a white and tender skin color.

He looked at the coating fluid on his hand, and then at the female secretary.

The female secretary smiled at Su An and handed over a handkerchief.

Su An took the handkerchief and wiped her hands.After making sure it didn't get on his hands, he handed the handkerchief back.

"Mr. Su An, I remembered that I still have some things to deal with, and I may not be able to accompany you for the time being. I will let the old coating master here take you to continue the visit. I hope for your understanding." The female secretary said to Su An.

"Well, it's okay. After all, it's a coating factory. I understand that we are busy with official duties." Su An said with a smile.

The female secretary bowed to Su An and left. After a while, an old coating master came.

It doesn't matter to Su An. Once you get what you want to see, don't go overboard and irritate them.Started wandering around.

After the inspection, no abnormalities were found, and Su An returned to the factory gate.

The female secretary is also waiting there.

"Hahaha, I didn't expect that my drinking capacity is so high. I'm willing to give in."

"No, I admire my brother's ability to drink. But today, I am busy with official duties, so I really can't spare the time. Let's do it next time. I will have a good drink with my brother next time."

"Okay, then next time I come again, I will definitely treat you."

He looked at Trisbet, who was already called elder brother and younger brother, and the owner of the coating factory.Su An was not surprised.

"Um, Xiao Su, have you noticed anything unusual?" Trisbet seemed to be asking involuntarily.

Su An's mouth twitched and she replied: "No."
