the days before i bought the galaxy

"What are you thinking?"

Warren looked away from the screen. "Nothing." Turning his head to look at his adjutant, "When do you think the people from Silver Shield will contact us?"

It has been three full days since the victory of the defense of the Red Capital ended, but the Silver Shield Guards stationed outside the Red Capital have no intention of contacting Warren at all, which makes Warren very puzzled.

"I'm a little worried. They're surrounding Hongdu now, and they feel like pirates. Although our freedom is not restricted in name, we can't get those deep-space crystals right under their noses?" Odin couldn't help but frown. eyebrow.

"That's right, we seem to be locked up in a 'cage' again." Warren pursed his lips.

Three days ago, with the help of Ulysses, they successfully rescued Staff Officer Charlie Bergman.More than two months of constant anxiety turned Charlie's hair from grizzled to all white.Fortunately, he did not give up hope and was actively looking for a solution. In addition, he was not injured in the previous breakout operation, so his body did not really collapse.Hearing that it was his own prayers that brought reinforcements to Hongdu, Charlie's spirit was immediately lifted up.He walked up and down as if he was okay, talking about his experience in the past two months, and finally he had to receive an injection and enter the rest cabin to rest at Lan's insistence.

The second-best news for Warren was that he had recovered his Ray.Miraculously, the hull of the Xiaguang suffered only minor damage, except for the destruction of the space folding engine and communication equipment, the most important cabins were all intact.Parking the Rays on one of his past favorite cliffs near the ocean, Warren has reclaimed the cabins of the Rays as his home.

Ulysses only stayed in the Red City for one day, and he brought Warren a large number of supplies and machinery.Although he did not agree to help Warren treat Montgalt, he gave Warren a very special gift.Twelve followers of Ulysses from Darren were left with Warren, and they will be responsible for establishing a communication channel between Warren and Ulysses whenever necessary.Warren didn't know anything about these green blisters with four protruding eyes, but the other party told him with spiritual power that they didn't need the food and water of the people on earth, they just needed a place to put them. The information compartment will do.At first, Warren was very puzzled about what information the other party was talking about, but he soon discovered that the other party seemed to be able to extract a green jelly-like substance from his body. It will turn into a small piece of light green bricks, and in three days it will fill up half of the room.

After the war, the reconstruction of Hongdu was proceeding in an orderly manner.Contact with the outside world was restored.Now, Warren can order a large number of materials needed for reconstruction from outside.To his surprise, only a very small number of refugees planned to leave Hongdu, and the rest all decided to stay with one voice, and moved their Chamber of Commerce headquarters to Hongdu, regarding this as their future urban planet.

Everything is going in a good direction, and there seems to be only one problem left. Although Warren knows the location of the deep space crystal mine, Warren cannot take out the treasure in the starry sky in front of the Silver Shield family guards.He didn't have much money on hand, and the rest basically belonged to the half of Mirit's property, but Mirit seemed to have disappeared without any news.Not just Bethel, her whereabouts could not be found anywhere else.

"A call request from Bethel Administrator." Lan suddenly raised his head and said.

"Come in." Warren straightened up immediately.

He had only had a brief phone call with Administrator Henry Wickham three days earlier.During the call, they confirmed that the Red City was safe and that Millet was still missing. At the same time, Administrator Henry Wickham also said that they would send a warship from the local security forces to pick up Montgart and return to Bethel for treatment. .

"Warren." The administrator was wearing a neat military uniform, and his appearance was very neat and tidy at all times.

"Hello, Henry." Warren greeted each other with a smile.

"Are the people with the silver shield still around you?" The administrator seemed to have no intention of greeting Warren, but went straight to the point.

"Yes. The number of spaceships continues unabated. They don't ask Hongdu to provide supplies, and they don't ask to land. They just stop around."

"They may be protecting you. Don't leave easily these few days." Henry Wickham frowned. "Warren, you seem to be a pawn for the Silver Shield family to attack the Rudick family."

"Did something happen?" Warren asked in suppressed surprise.

"There is already conclusive evidence that Jacques Rudick colluded with the pirates, and this attack on the Red Capital was also at his behest. He and his family were formally prosecuted by the Federation the day before yesterday, and his family had the opportunity to pass the Break away from him and get rid of the crime, but considering the close relationship between the Archbishop of the Holy Light Sect and you, the Federation had to reconsider. In the end, in order to calm the anger of the Archbishop, the Federation decided to sentence Jacques Rudick to death. The Rudick family, together with the current The twelve members including the head of the family were all sentenced to varying degrees. The assets of the Rudick family were forcibly split into three parts and handed over to the three chambers of commerce for management. The remaining members of the Rudick family could only get 10% of the annual The remaining profits will be shared between the federation and the three chambers of commerce, and you will also receive about 30 deep space crystals in compensation."

"Is the Silver Shield family one of those three chambers of commerce?" Warren asked, suppressing his surprise.The fact that it happened in just three days was too surprising. I didn't expect that a large chamber of commerce would be brought down because of the incident in Hongdu.But being able to make the federation make a judgment so quickly is probably not something that can only be achieved by the pressure brought by Ulysses.

"No, those three chambers of commerce are not directly related to the Yindun family, but the Yindun family did put in a lot of effort to promote this matter. Since it was the guards of the Yindun family who finally rescued the Red Capital, this allowed them to They gained a lot of say in this matter. In addition to the evidence of Jacques Ruddick’s collusion with the pirates, they also provided a lot of evidence of Ruddick’s family engaging in illegal transactions. It is said that even Heinrich even attended in person. The final hearing. The final decision is made directly by the Federal President using his privileges, so it will be much faster than the usual process."

"Since you can't get any benefits, why would you do such a thing?" Warren couldn't help frowning, "Is there a private transaction with those three chambers of commerce?"

"Don't worry about Silver Shield's motives. Now that the Rudick family's scattered industries have not been completely taken over, you are their number one thorn in their side. Before the matter subsides, you must pay attention to your own safety. Whether the Silver Shield guards stay What is your real purpose there, as long as they are there, the Rudick family should not be so stupid as to launch revenge in front of the silver shield." The administrator warned seriously.

"Thank you, Henry, I'll be careful. Any news of Mirit?"

"Not yet." The administrator shook his head, with a trace of worry in his eyes, "I didn't find any useful clues at Leslie's house. Millet hasn't contacted Bethel's headquarters for four months. I have notified I have captured the developers in the entire business circle and let them pay attention to her whereabouts. Please rest assured, as long as she is still in the Bethel business circle, I will definitely be able to find her."

Warren pursed his lips, not intending to post the hypothesis that Millet might have died.

"Henry, regarding Montgalt, his current condition may not be suitable for moving. He is very sensitive to changes in light and environment, and the therapy robot believes that excessive stimulation may cause self-harm behavior in him."

Henry Wickham nodded: "The spaceship of the Local Security Force will leave tomorrow afternoon, and there will be the best doctors on board. If Montgart's condition is not suitable for moving, then let the spaceship be stationed at your place temporarily. , by the way to protect your safety."

Warren thanked the administrator again and ended the call.He leaned his back against the back of the chair and raised his hand to press the corners of his eyes.The current situation is still very unclear.Millet disappeared, and the Silver Shield family took advantage of the Battle of the Red City to split the Rudick family. I believe that in the near future, the divided Rudick family will be completely erased from the past and become the private property of the three chambers of commerce.However, the Yindun family and the Rudick family did not have obvious conflicts. In fact, although the two chambers of commerce were both large chambers of commerce, their total assets differed by hundreds of thousands of miles. As can be seen in the takedown, it is difficult to imagine that the heir of the Silver Shield needs to take a special shot against someone who is not worthy of being his opponent at all.

Could it be that the Silver Shield family also came for the deep space crystal mine, and they lingered around Hongdu because they were looking for the specific location of the mine?

Warren doesn't think that's impossible.But even this can't explain why the Silver Shield family asked the guards to rescue the Red City, and gave the Rudick family a thunderous blow.If you just want to find the treasure, wouldn't it be enough to just send a spaceship to find it?Of course, it is extremely difficult to search for some hard-to-find mineral deposits in the vast universe, and even with the financial resources of Silver Shield, it may not be possible to find them quickly.But if this is the case, they should get in touch with Hongdu.After all, using the identity of the savior is likely to be able to extract information.

Now Silver Shield's attitude is almost like...

A thought flashed through Warren's mind.After thinking of this, his first reaction was impossible.But at the same time, all kinds of things that happened in the past were strung together by this assumption, and the result was surprisingly consistent.

Now Silver Shield's attitude is as if...they already know where the treasure is!

Only the person who knows the exact location of the deep space crystal mine does not need to obtain information from himself after he rescues Hongdu, because the most valuable information is already in his hands, and the only person who can tell him this information is one!

No wonder……

"Warren..." Lan suddenly said, with a strange expression on his face, "I received a message that requires your permission to open it."

Warren frowned: "Whose message?"

"The signature is..." Lang paused, "Milliet Leslie."
