Chapter 245 Comforting the Old Captain

This put the old captain in a dilemma. He was unwilling to miss this good opportunity, but he also didn't want Daniels to make a fearless sacrifice.

The old captain couldn't persuade him, so he bravely prepared to contact Ling Luxian to ask for help. Unexpectedly, Ling Luxian came to his house today.

Ling Luxian also knew Daniels, who was a good policeman despite his impetuous actions. He seemed to be inconsiderate of other people's feelings, but in fact he wanted to distance himself from them.

The old captain looked at Ling Luxian with anticipation, hoping that he could take on this commission.

"Give me the time and coordinates. I have another job to do. I'll help you solve this problem after I finish this one."

How could Ling Luxian not help the old captain's request?

"It will be three days from now, no more than a week, and I will send you the position right away." When the old captain heard that Ling Luxian agreed to his request, he did not hesitate and sent him the position directly.

"Damn, he's so serious that he didn't even call me dad. Looks like it's time to get serious." Johnny Silverhand lay on the hood of the Sword of the Lady of the Lake, supporting his head with his arms and looking at the two of them.

"Shh, shut up Johnny."

Ling Luxian was discussing serious matters with the old captain and was in no mood to deal with Johnny.

"YES, SIR!"

Johnny Silverhand saluted Ling Lu and his figure disappeared in an instant.

"Okay, let me know when the time comes."

"Well." The old captain nodded, "If this vote can be successful, the children of Saint Domingo will not have to suffer like me.

Okay, go ahead and do your work, I'll take care of your car."

The old captain silently lit a cigarette for himself and drove Ling Lu into the garage with the Sword of the Lake Girl in its car.

"Smoking is either for energizing, socializing, or relieving stress. Guess what he is."

Johnny's silver hand popped up and pointed his thumb at the old captain. "Look, he's got a lot of lawsuits on his mind. Go and comfort your big son. It's obvious that he wants to talk to someone and can't afford to lose face."

Ling Luxian had no intention of arguing with Johnny Silvershou. He walked into the garage and tugged at the old captain's sleeve.

"Give me one."

The old captain looked at him incredulously, "Don't you never smoke?"

"Isn't this one for you? Come on, let's chat."

"Don't you still have something to do?"

Ling Luxian waved his hand, "It won't take more than a cigarette."

"Okay." The old captain took out a cigarette box, handed a cigarette to Ling Lu, and lit it for him himself.

The two men began to puff away at the smoke, and thanks to the old captain, Johnny Silverhand was able to smell some smoke.

"Santo Domingo... Daniels and I grew up here. Do you know what we are most afraid of since childhood?" The old captain turned his head and asked.

"It's water, right?" Ling Luxian said calmly.

"That's right." The old captain took a puff of his cigarette, "Since the industrial area moved to Santo Domingo, the pollution here has become more and more serious.

Just this glass of water, if you take a sip, you might die because the filter will go haywire from time to time. Cancer, rheumatism, a child's joints are like those of a 70- or 80-year-old woman, all because of a glass of water."

"Damn, it must be Arasaka's doing." Johnny Silverhand took over the conversation.

"The Arasaka factory has been discharging toxic waste into the groundwater since 2061. The problem has not been solved yet. Every family here has had someone die, and the children are either sick or disabled. I don't think Daniels and I will live long.

Arasaka kept this a secret, even their employees didn't know about it. Arasaka employees drink the same water as us.

This batch of Arasaka medical equipment can ease their pain. Of course, this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is to let the people of Santo Domingo know that there are people who care about them. It will make them feel better despite their fears. "

Ling Lu grinned and made a joke, "Then we are considered chivalrous thieves, right? Just like Robin Hood?"

"Haha, of course." The joke made the old captain laugh. "You are the modern Robin Hood, Pilot! Not only are you as chivalrous as him, you are also as romantic as him."

Ling Luxian thought of Robin Hood's appearance in his mind and shuddered all over.

The classic image of Robin Hood, wearing a green coat and a green hat.

"No, no, no, I'm not Robin Hood, I don't wear a green hat."

"Oh, okay." The old captain didn't understand the reason, but seeing Ling Luxian's disgusted look, he tactfully stopped talking about it. "I feel much better after chatting with you for a while. Thank you, Tie Yu. Go back to your business."

Ling Luxian nodded, turned and left.

Then it was time to do what Kerry had told me to do, and call Nancy. Oh, now it was time to call Beth Isis.

I called Nancy, but found a man wearing a white knitted hat and a blue vest on the other end.

Could it be that Nancy had a sex change? Damn, even if she did, she wouldn't look this ugly, right? Or did Kerry call the wrong number?

No matter what, ask first before talking.

"Is this Beth Isis?" Ling Luxian asked.

The man on the other side replied unhappily, "No, I'm her assistant, an assistant who gets little pay but a lot of work and is not well-received. Steven from News Channel 54, what do you want from her?"

Ha, it seems that no matter where you are, there are cattle and horses. Moreover, the one serving him is the paranoid Nancy, which is really enough for him to bear.

"I want to talk to her."

"She's not here!" Steven's tone became even more unhappy, and he didn't even bother to say another word.

People say that celebrities act like big shots, but in fact, celebrities always have to consider their image, and those who act like big shots are often the agents and others around them.

In the eyes of these guys, they are serving celebrities, and ordinary people have no right to talk to them. Ling Luxian thought about it and it seemed that he had to move the big Buddha of Kerry.

"Oh? Really?" Ling Luxian said calmly, "Did I forget to tell you? I'm calling from Keri Orodien?"

But Steven on the other side still shook his head, "Awesome! But Beth is still not here."

Damn it, it seems that Nancy is really not here now. Now Ling Luxian is in a difficult situation and feels a little embarrassed.

Steven's tone softened a bit, "She should have been back two days ago. I think she got into trouble. After all, she's dealing with the Uzumaki Gang. Those lunatics don't care who you are."

"Who are you talking about?" Ling Luxian's tone became more serious. "Are you talking about the Whirlpool Gang?"

Ling Luxian didn't expect that Nancy would go to interview the Whirlpool Gang so early. It seems that Vincent has to step in on this matter. After all, he saved Brick, and I believe Brick will give him this face.

"Yes, she was out on location two days ago, doing an interview for the Uzumaki Gang at the Dance of Death. You can come back to see her next week, or watch the news. If anything happens to her, I'll be the first one to call the news hotline."

There was a hint of gloating in Steven's tone.
