Chapter 569 - 569 Hunter Ah Pu
After walking out of the teleportation center, Wang Zining waved at them across the road.
“Zining!”
“Yanyan!”
The two sisters had not seen each other for half a year. When they saw each other again, they immediately ran and gave each other a big hug.
Other than the old beggar, the rest of the people knew Wang Zining. The few of them chatted merrily.
It was April, and the warm sunlight shone on Shanghai. As the largest city in the Dragon Kingdom, Shanghai was a bustling city.
The peach trees on both sides of the road were already covered with green fruits, and spring was in full bloom.
“Uncle Chu has been trapped in the outer realm for nearly half a year. Other than continuing to provide reinforcements, supplies are also a big problem.”
Wang Zining rented a minibus. On the bus, she told everyone about the completion of her mission over the past few days.
Lu Benwei was the only person who had come to Shanghai to meet up with Wang Zining. Instead, he purchased some forbidden materials apart from water and food as well as some necessities for life. There were also more important things such as guns and ammunition.
Not only did the Furious Dragon Legion have powerful hunters, but there were also some mercenaries following them. Their combat strength was only slightly stronger than ordinary people.
However, according to Chu Yan, the mercenaries under the Furious Dragon Legion had a high fighting spirit. They were all people who licked the blood on the tip of their knives and killed ferocious beasts without blinking. Compared to level equipment, guns, and ammunition were their best weapons!
However, the Dragon Kingdom had strict gun control. Those who were not part of the army were not allowed to carry them.
Especially since Lu Benwei was only a normal citizen but wanted a large supply. As such, he had to go through some special connections.
“Hunter Apu!”
Wang Zining cleared her throat and showed everyone a portrait of a hunter in front of the minibus.
The hunter named Ah Pu had a thin face. His eyes were small, and the tips of his eyes were tilted upward.
“He looks like a thief.” Lin Feng craned his neck to look at Ah Pu’s portrait and immediately complained.
“Listen carefully!” Wang Zining rolled her eyes.
Lin Feng stuck out his tongue awkwardly and retracted his head.
“This Hunter Ah Pu was once a small commander of the Magic Dragon Legion in the garrison of Magic City. Later, due to some disciplinary issues, he was expelled from the Magic Dragon Legion. He’s currently moving goods at the port of Shanghai to make a living.”
At this moment, Lu Benwei slowly opened his eyes. “The former commander of the Magic Dragon Legion… Even if he was expelled from the military, he shouldn’t have to rely on the dock to move goods for a living, right? Since he’s from Shanghai’s port, does that mean that moving goods is a cover and he’s doing a smuggling transaction?”
“Are we going to make a deal with him?” Chu Yan asked.
“That’s right!”
“There are quite a few people in Shanghai who are involved in these arms smuggling deals. I’ve compared the goods to three others. Only Ah Pu’s can provide me with such a large amount of goods,” Wang Zining said.
Lu Benwei nodded slightly.
Their stock was equivalent to an army’s monthly supply. From the looks of it, this Hunter Ah Pu was not a simple character.
Soon, the minibus drove into Shanghai Port. This was the largest port in the country. The transactions at the docks were all carried out by the coastal provinces of the Dragon Kingdom.
The teleportation portal could not transport goods. On the other hand, railway transportation in the Dragon Kingdom was not very developed. In contrast, shipping was more cost-efficient.
The group entered Shanghai Port.
The red and blue containers were stacked together like a small hill.
Wang Zining brought Lu Benwei and the others to a dock. A few uncles were smoking and chatting while leaning against a forklift.
“Master, may I ask where Ah Pu is?”
Wang Zining’s voice was as clear as an oriole’s. Her face was stunning and her figure was graceful.
The middle-aged men’s eyes were all fixed on her. One by one, they stepped on their cigarettes and fought to please her.
“Beauty, Ah Pu is sleeping! I’ll go get him!”
“Come, come, beautiful. Let’s sunbathe here. Let’s go to Ah Pu’s office to rest for a while.”
“Ah? Ah Pu has an office?” Wang Zining was surprised.
“Of course. Ah Pu is a capable person. Countless people come to talk business with him every day.” An uncle put his hands in his pockets and explained to Wang Zining.
“Do you want to talk business under the sun, or do you want to talk in the office with the air-conditioner and tea?”
“Do you know what Ah Pu does?” Lu Benwei asked.
The uncle chuckled. “We’ve been dealing with Ah Pu for so many years. How could we not know that he does this?”
After saying that, he took it out of his pocket. It was a handgun!
Lu Benwei’s expression changed slightly. It was not that he was frightened by the uncle’s item, but his eyes.
The porters at the dock all looked honest. However, if one were to observe carefully, one would discover that his eyes were filled with a hint of craftiness and viciousness.
“What’s wrong?” Chu Yan saw the worry on Lu Benwei’s face and asked with concern.
“I guess the workers here are just like Ah Pu, a cover. They are a gang that makes a living by smuggling!”
The group of people was led by the uncle outside to the place where the containers were placed.
“Crack!”
A container was skillfully opened by the uncle. There were different items inside.
There was a round table that could fit more than ten people, a solid wood desk, a teapot, and an air conditioner. There was also a small mahjong table. The mahjong tiles on the table had not been put away, and the ground was covered with cigarette butts.
The air inside was very stuffy. As soon as Lu Benwei and the others entered, they wanted to go out and breathe fresh air.
“Bear with it for now.” Wang Zining sighed helplessly.
The six of them waited for a while before strange laughter came from outside the container.
“Miss Wang, I’ve made you wait!”
Wang Zining, Lu Benwei, and the others went out to meet him. Ah Pu put his hands together and walked toward them apologetically.
“I’m sorry. I had some fun with my friends last night.”
“No worries! Hurry up and let us examine the goods!” Wang Zining said indifferently.
“Miss Wang, you know your stock. It’s not something that can be solved in a short time!” Ah Pu’s face was full of apology.
“Didn’t you say you were ready?” Wang Zining’s eyes widened, and her tone suddenly rose.
“Pa da!”
Ah Pu lit his cigarette and took a puff. “Miss Wang, don’t be anxious! The goods have arrived, but I have to unload them.”
As he spoke, Ah Pu slowly exhaled a mouthful of green smoke, which curled around his fingertips.
Soon, the airtight container was filled with smelly smoke.
“How long will it take?” Wang Zining asked coldly.
