"Cooker, you really plan to help them investigate the case."

After leaving Nisu's house, a few people walked on the streets of Kandar. Paimeng walked around Bai Qiyun and asked curiously.

"Well, there are a lot of strange things about this matter, and investigating this matter will also allow us to learn more about the clues and intelligence that have been hidden away."

Although this matter seems to be clueless, Bai Qiyun already has a good entry angle.

The first thing is to start with those with vested interests. If something happens to the Wudong family in Kandal City, the Wudong family and the Nisu family will naturally be involved.

Under the premise of ruling out any insiders in the Wudong family, the person who can gain the greatest benefit from this matter is...

"Do you mean the other two cities?"

Bai Qiyun got the answer after thinking for a moment.

Philomas and the third city controlled by the family's power - Donbarsk.

The ruling family in Donbarsko is called Torrio, and together with the Nisu and Udon families, they are known as the three major families in the Lawless Zone.

If the power of the Wudong and Nisu families can be weakened at the same time, it will undoubtedly be the best situation for them.

Philomas can further expand its influence in surrounding cities, while Donbarsko can accept part of the trade from the other two to a certain extent to enrich itself.

Thinking about it this way, the fools who passed by before seemed very suspicious.

"We still have to start with that group of people."

Bai Qiyun sighed, and then led everyone to chase towards the corner of the street where the Fools disappeared.

————

A long time has passed since the Fools passed by, and naturally there is no trace of them around.

But Bai Qiyun is not alone. He has already received local investigation support from the Nisu family.

Bai Qiyun took the Nisu family's token and walked to a street vendor to make casual inquiries, and then directly learned the movements of the fools.

After all, those people were so ostentatious and their clothes were so different from the locals that it was difficult for people not to remember them.

"They went to the suburbs, and I don't know what their intentions were."

Bai Qiyun shared the information he had learned with everyone, and Kujo Sanra, who was always good at guessing the enemy's movements, smelled something fishy.

"In the manner of fools, they directly bypassed Kandar's Nisu family, probably because they found a more suitable partner to cooperate with, but I think it may not be the Torrio family, but Philomas."

The city name was so unpronounceable that Kujo Sora's tongue almost bent.

It seems that compared to her who will be good at verbal battles in the future, the current Miss Tengu still lacks training in verbal battles.

"Then what should we do now? Rush over directly?"

"Of course I'm going to follow them and see what kind of medicine they are selling in their gourds."

Bai Qiyun glanced at Ying and walked directly towards the outskirts of the city.

Several people left Kandal on foot without driving conspicuous vehicles.

As soon as he left the city, Bai Qiyun gathered several pure water creatures in front to inquire for information, and a few people followed them, giving them a warning time.

Suddenly, news came from pure water creatures, which shocked Bai Qiyun.

"Stop."

He lowered his voice.

In a ruins not far ahead, several Fool soldiers were guarding a box of crystal minerals, seemingly waiting for someone to arrive.

"Are all the fools attracted by the ore here?"

Bai Qiyun led a few people to a place with a bunker, controlled the pure water flies to land on the trees in the suburbs, and waited for the arrival of the people who would join the Fools.

After a while, several people dressed as locals approached from the distant suburbs. They met with the fools and drove away the boxes of minerals.

Seeing this, Bai Qiyun and others bypassed the camp of the Fools from a distance, and hung at the rear of the group with the help of a fly's vision.

"If I guess correctly, those minerals may have been unearthed in Luoda Village."

"oh?"

The women, who did not have the vision of a fly, could only listen to Bai Qiyun's description to judge the current situation.

"I have seen that kind of ore in the ruins guards driven by Feisal and in the cannon shells they activated. It is a kind of ore that is not found in Liyue."

This kind of ore contains rich rock elemental power. Although it cannot be compared with stone amber, it is better because of its large quantity.

Bai Qiyun could detect the vast mineral veins underground in Luoda Village with just a rough perception.

You must know that stone amber is considered a rare mineral even in Liyue. A single one often appears in the corner of the mountain, and mineralization veins rarely appear.

"Luoda Village...was it sold by their elder?"

Ying thought of the good deeds done by the three elders, but what made him even more surprised was that the deal between Luoda Village and Philomas was obviously, why did it go through Kandar, and even the Fools were involved, unless...

"Unless in fact this batch of goods is not for Philomas, but for the fools."

After thinking for a while, Ying quickly came up with his answer.

It is true that after the quarrel between the Fools and Liyue, Liyue's mineral exports to the Winter Kingdom were subject to certain restrictions, especially in terms of precious minerals.

If the Fools want to use the minerals from Luoda Village to replace the minerals from Liyue, then it is indeed possible to do so.

But what role did Philomas play in it?

There were not many bunkers in the wilderness on the outskirts, so everyone could only use Bai Qiyun's observation field of view to widen the distance again, until the group of people stopped at the edge of a factory.

The factory ahead was built on a wasteland, surrounded by relatively simple roads for vehicles to pass through.

In the factory, Bai Qiyun saw several figures that surprised him deeply.

I saw a few scholars wearing the uniforms of the Academy standing in front of boxes of resources piled up like a hill, constantly directing the people present.

"Hey, over there, put these three boxes in the corner."

"Ah? But don't I think these are all the same?"

"Stop talking nonsense, do you understand or do I understand?"

The scholars of the Imperial Academy were extremely impatient with the dissatisfaction of the workers.

Perhaps in his opinion, these people are not on the same level as him at all, and negotiating with them is a waste of his energy.

The workers in the factory did not dare to directly contradict the scholar, and dejectedly moved the box under their feet to the corner as instructed.

In addition, there is a group of people acting as guards at the entrance of the factory. They hold long guns and are dressed in uniform.

There are several very conspicuous symbols on their clothes, which are the symbols of the Torrio family of Donbarsk.

"interesting."

Bai Qiyun felt that the scene in front of him seemed to connect all the information they had obtained so far, but it was not enough to support their conclusion.
