The red moon returns

Chapter 115 Catching up with you

It was 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, plant fiber, and a lot of water. It is suitable as a gift to Maya. For this reason, Lynch did not hesitate to spend a lot of money. Bought one for a good price.

[Oh, a big price for 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 see each other in her dream again.

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 has been 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?

Please ask the police officer next time you have a chance, and you 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."

After listening to Lynch's explanation, the female reporter thought for a while and said doubtfully:

"However, you may have a misunderstanding about printing presses. It is not that easy to produce printed materials."

"Ok?"

"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 cannot allow it to be used just for a few pieces of paper. Printing press.”

"Huh? What if it is Party A's request? They have paid for it."

"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 within the industry. But there is no movement now, which means no one does such a stupid thing."

Hiss, I thought wrong?

Lin Qi pondered for a moment and then asked: "There can be no exceptions?"

"Indeed."

"what?"

"First, he printed tens of thousands of them at one time."

Lin Qi 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 who operate 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." Lin Qi shook his head and said, "The image on it is inherently mysterious and cannot be seen well by ordinary people."

"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, I can't help you?" Lynch smiled bitterly, I was choked for a long time without saying anything, so I honestly took out the pattern and handed it over.

After looking through it several times under a kerosene lamp, the female reporter said thoughtfully: "It's not a new one, it's obviously an old machine."

"Can you tell?"

"Of course, the difference in printing effect is so obvious that you can see it at a glance."

"Okay, maybe I'm blind. In short, this means that the controller of those seven machines or one of all the people is related to this matter, even that Jefferson?"

"This is the most likely possibility, 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 similar to the new ones. The machine in the bookstore can also be ruled out. The effect of the machine that prints books is different from this one. Compare Special. The only ones left are the printing presses of four newspapers. The one from our newspaper can also be excluded. I am very familiar with that one and the color is lighter than this one. The one from the Rheinische Zeitung can be excluded because their machine is missing a corner."

"what?"

"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 know it to see it, but we all know it."

With that said, Maya took out two of yesterday's and today's newspapers from the pile provided by the watcher and threw them to Lynch. Lynch read them several times and finally made sure.

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. However, Rand News is headquartered in Noland. The management of the Rhine branch is very complicated and cannot be decided by a few people. And Rheinland Business Daily It’s different, it mainly publishes business information from Rand and Friedman, and it 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, he had realized the seriousness of the problem.

If this is the work of these actual controllers, they also have an international trade fleet. Once they have obtained it, they can hide things in the trade ships and send them to the Friedman Kingdom. The official beliefs of that country do not seem to include The Church of Dark Night, the Church of Dark Night's control has been greatly weakened. Once something is transported, it will be difficult to get it 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, thank you for having a professional like you, otherwise I would never have thought of this."

"I wish I could 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 happens to be docked at White Bird Port and is replenishing supplies. It will soon set sail to Friedman's Port of Reeves."

I'm catching up with you this time, don't even think about running away.
