Kiana and the Captain's Bizarre Adventure
Chapter 44 A Request from the Earth Balance Bureau
"Now that everyone is here, let's officially begin this meeting."
Walter officially announced the start of the meeting.
"First, there's the issue of Danheng. According to the Star Core Hunters' plan, Danheng's power is indispensable, and Danheng has clearly stated that he will infiltrate the Immortal Ship after we arrive..."
"But the problem now is that Danheng still hasn't contacted us, which is highly unlikely."
Bronya continued, and Walter nodded in agreement.
"Given Danheng's personality, he should have contacted us after successfully infiltrating, but we haven't received any contact from him yet. I'm afraid this is also the work of the Star Core Hunter."
"Huh? They invited us here, and they even need Danheng's power. Why are they causing trouble as well?" March 7th complained. "Besides, what power could Danheng possibly have that would make them so concerned? It's impossible that he actually has some hidden power, right?"
“It’s not impossible,” Kiana said. “When I was looking through Kafka’s memories, I accidentally learned that Danheng was also a member of the Vidyadhara race.”
"Huh? So you really do have hidden power!"
"We do not know the specific reasons why Danheng concealed his identity as a member of the Ming Clan or why he was banished by the Immortal Ship, but this is probably the main reason why the Star Core Hunters coveted Danheng."
Valte nodded in agreement with Kiana's statement.
"Do you remember that Star Core Hunter hacker?" Kiana asked.
"You mean the one who looks a lot like I used to look like?" Bronya asked.
"Yes, it's her. I suspect she used some kind of hacking technique to intercept our communications with Danheng."
At that moment, Xing shouted into her phone, "Danheng contacted me!"
Xing's message temporarily dispelled everyone's worries, but it seems that Xing's reply still hasn't been successfully sent.
Seeing the message "failed to send" displayed on Xing's phone, everyone couldn't help but start to worry again.
At this point, it was Xing who started to comfort everyone.
"Don't worry! According to the information Dan Heng sent me, very few people in Luofu should be able to recognize him at a glance. Right now, he's following two people from the Immortal Ship. It seems he won't be able to move freely until the Cloud Cavalry Army joins up with the main force."
"In that case, let's skip Danheng's question for now."
Walter prepared to move on to the next topic.
"Next topic: What are your thoughts on the official stance of Xianzhou?"
"It's obvious they want us to be a surprise force that can provide support at any time."
Bronya stated her judgment, and Walter agreed.
"I think so too, especially since General Jingyuan practically wore that intention on his face."
"However, the fact that we can still move freely on the Immortal Ship and participate in various Cloud Cavalry activities at any time is inseparable from this purpose, so so far there is no downside."
"So, we've actually done quite a lot along the way," March 7th said. "If that's the case, shouldn't they thank us?"
"Want a reward?" Xing asked.
"Of course! I mean, a reward would be best."
"Let's leave it at that for now. If there are no other issues, let's call it a day," Walter said.
"Wait, I have something else to say."
After much deliberation, Kiana decided it was better to share her findings.
"I don't know if you noticed, but when I mentioned that the Abundant Mystic Deer had extremely powerful regenerative abilities, Miss Tingyun showed a hint of longing, but it disappeared quickly."
"You mean that Miss Tingyun has ulterior motives?" Bronya speculated.
"It's not impossible. Most of the people I've encountered on the Immortal Ship are hostile to the so-called bountiful creatures and miracles related to bounty, while only those who claim to be the secret disciples of the Medicine King are eager to follow them."
"The Secret Teachings of the Medicine King...you mean the organization you were sent to infiltrate before?" Walter asked.
Kiana nodded and said, "That's right. They regard abundance as the orthodox way of the Celestial Ship, while hunting is a heretical and evil path."
"So Kiana, you mean Tingyun is the one who inherited the secret techniques of the Medicine King?"
"It's not certain yet, but it should be someone who is related to the secret teachings of the Medicine King."
Just then, Xing spoke up.
"Speaking of which, after the incident at the Industrial Construction Bureau, Miss Tingyun sent me some messages, including her longing for abundance."
As she spoke, Xing took out her phone again and handed it to everyone to check. Although Tingyun said in the end that she was just joking, her previous words revealed her longing and yearning for abundance.
After reading the message Tingyun sent to Xing, Walter frowned. After thinking it over, he decided to keep it to himself for now and make a decision after discussing it with Jingyuan and Fuxuan.
And so the meeting ended, and everyone returned to their rooms to rest.
The next day, they received a commission from the Bureau of Geology.
The cause was the sudden revival of the Jianmu tree, which caused varying degrees of damage to the surveillance systems throughout the Immortal Ship. Although some data was successfully recovered after emergency rescue, the timeline still did not match.
Meanwhile, the Equilibrium Division has also discovered that some passengers' information has been falsified, and hopes that everyone on the Starry Sky Train can help find the suspicious individuals.
Of course, some basic suspect lists have already been prepared, and the train crew only needs to select the most suspicious one from these lists.
Although Kiana wanted to complain that they could have done the job themselves, why did they have to ask the train crew for help? But the words of Daihao, the person in charge of the Earth Balance Division, left Kiana speechless.
In short, Dahao really wanted to get rid of this hot potato as soon as possible, but he didn't want to get complaints himself, so he thought of asking the train crew to come and help.
There was nothing they could do; they were indeed employed by the official Xianzhou (Immortal Ship) organization. Moreover, the rewards from Dahao were quite generous. Although everyone harbored some resentment, they didn't stop working.
Suddenly, Walter's gaze fell on a list.
The faces of the people in the photos on that list reminded Walter of some unpleasant memories. After the initial shock, Walter took the list to Dahao and asked him about it.
"Who is this person? I think it's necessary to investigate him."
Da Hao glanced at the list and immediately recognized the people on it.
"Oh, this person. His name on the register is Rakshasa. He was a traveling merchant who also carried something called 'Guan Guo' on his back when he walked down the street, so he left a pretty deep impression on me."
Jingyan, the steward of the Earth Balance Division, corrected him, saying, "It's a 'coffin.' That thing is used by short-lived species to hold their remains for burial after death."
"Yes, yes, it's called a coffin. Anyway, he always carried this thing on his back, so I kept an eye on things when we registered him. What, do you think there's something wrong with him?"
"This... is because of his appearance."
Walter and Dahao's conversation was naturally overheard by others, and March 7th said after hearing Walter's explanation.
"After all that talk, it turns out it's because of someone's appearance. Uncle Yang, judging people by their looks is not a good thing!"
"Uncle Yang, it's not good to judge a book by its cover!"
Xing was naturally repeating what was being read aloud, while Bronya glanced at the list and immediately understood why Walter judged people by their appearance.
"This is his appearance, isn't it?"
Kiana nodded unconsciously after reading it, but of course she still didn't reveal that she had already met Otto.
"Who is he? It seems like you all know him."
Seeing March 7's puzzled look, Bronya didn't hide anything and explained it to March 7 directly.
"There are two people with this appearance in our world, but neither of them are good people, and they caused Mr. Walter some... bad memories."
"So that's it."
"But Mr. Walter, do you mean you suspect he is the Void Treasury who came here with you?"
When faced with Kiana's question, Welt naturally admitted it without hesitation. After all, he only knew one person with this face in this universe: Void Repository. Whether it was him or not, he had to confirm it.
At this moment, Da Hao spoke up: "I understand your reasons. The Earth Balance Division will do its best to help you with the investigation. Of course, the premise is that you do not go to ask the person in person yourself. After all, we do not have enough clues yet. If we go there rashly, it may lead to a misunderstanding and cause trouble."
"But how can we get clues if we don't go and ask the person in person ourselves?"
"Hey! This is easy. You can use this Four-Sided View Mirror as you like. It contains all the footage captured by the Machine Bird. Although the timeline is still messed up, it's better than having no clues at all."
On the other side, Guan Yan asked with concern, "But this Four Directions Mirror is, after all, an official item. Is it really okay to just hand it over to others to use so casually?"
Da Hao, however, said nonchalantly, "I don't care, so why should you? As long as you and I don't say anything, who else besides those of you here would know? Just let them use it without worry. Alright, if there's nothing else, I'll be leaving now. If you have any questions, just ask Guan Yan."
After saying that, Da Hao turned and left.
