Volume 19 Chapter 187 Big Search

I didn't answer Yanyu's question directly, but handed him a list. He took the list with confusion and looked at it, and found that it was an information notice about the storage and use of liquefied magic crystal steam agreed upon by our two guilds. Because currently only our guild in the country can produce liquefied magic crystal steam, and liquefied magic crystal steam itself is a high-risk strategic material. Therefore, we require all guilds that use the liquefied magic crystal steam produced by our guild to make detailed tracking records for every cubic meter of liquefied magic crystal steam purchased from us. And what I just handed to Yanyu is this kind of record sheet.

I have been observing Yanyu since he saw the record. After seeing that his expression did not change after reading the record, I finally felt relieved. The fact that he didn't react at all after seeing this thing means that he must be unaware, otherwise he would definitely have a guilty conscience.

"Isn't this the tracking record written by our guild? Why are you showing me this?"

I just snapped my fingers, and then the two mobile Angels that had been following us put down the thing wrapped in cloth that they were carrying. Yanyu had been wondering why I brought two mobile Angels and carried something belonging to a boss before. Now that he saw me asking them to put this thing down, it made him even more confused. However, after the canvas covering the liquefied magic crystal steam storage tank was uncovered, Yanyu's expression became completely unstable.

"Damn it, Ziri, why did you move this thing to our guild headquarters?" Suddenly seeing the liquefied magic crystal steam storage tank, Yan Yu almost jumped from in front of me to behind the table. It's not that he is timid, but because he knows the power of this thing's explosion. The liquefied magic crystal steam storage tank is naturally filled with liquefied magic crystal steam. Think about how powerful the pen-sized liquefied magic crystal steam missile is? If this tank of liquefied magic crystal steam, which is more than one meter in diameter and two meters high, explodes, can you imagine what will happen?

Seeing Yanyu's reaction, I didn't explain anything to him. Instead, I asked the two mobile angels to turn over the liquefied magic crystal steam storage tank, and then waved to Yanyu who had retreated to the corner. "have a look."

Yanyu walked over in confusion and looked at where I was pointing. Then he suddenly picked up the record in his hand again and matched the numbers on the bottom of the bottle one by one. After checking it three times in a row to confirm that there was no difference between the two, Yanyu looked at me in surprise and asked, "What's going on?"

"This is exactly what we want to ask you." Hongyue said: "According to the records submitted by your guild, this thing should be in your warehouse now, but just this afternoon, we attacked a guild city , and then when we were robbing the guild's secret vault, we accidentally discovered this thing piled in the corner. Now we are here to explain it to you."

"This...can you let me find someone to investigate first?" Yanyu is not the kind of person to take whatever others say, but he also knows that we will not joke with him about this kind of thing, so he He kept his posture low so that he would not be able to talk if it really was their problem.

We are here to investigate this matter, and of course we have to let Yanyu investigate, so after he took the initiative, I immediately said: "Of course you can investigate, but I hope you can try to find someone who is trustworthy, and it is best Don’t let the warehouse guards know.”

Yanyu is not stupid. If the thing was really lost at his place, the other party must have an agent in the warehouse or transportation unit. If they openly investigate, they will definitely alert the snake. So as soon as I reminded him, he immediately nodded to show that he remembered. Now that he understood it, we didn't stop him anymore, but let Mianyu go about it first while we waited for him here.

As the president of the Northern Alliance, it is really easy for Yanyu to investigate his guild's warehouse, even if he wants to conduct a covert investigation. Just issue an order to transfer the items in the warehouse and take the opportunity to mobilize the guards, and then send a player who is good at stealth to sneak in quietly. This kind of thing is really not difficult if you have your own people covering it.

Because things are simple, the results come out quickly. We only sat in the room for ten minutes when we saw Yanyu walk in with a sad look on her face. Without waiting for us to ask, he said consciously: "The corresponding storage tanks in the warehouse are indeed gone, and my people also found that only two of the other three empty storage tanks that should be put together are in the warehouse."

"What?" Hongyue immediately stood up and asked in surprise: "You mean besides this bottle, there is also a liquefied magic crystal steam storage tank that is missing?"

Yanyu nodded painfully. In any case, this was their mistake, so now he has to endure it even if we point at him and scold him. The power of liquefied magic crystal steam is too terrifying. To exaggerate, this thing is simply a nuclear weapon in the game. You said that their guild lost two nuclear warheads. Isn't this a serious problem?

Seeing Yanyu's expression like a defeated rooster, I quickly pulled away from Hongyue and turned around to comfort Yanyu and said, "Now is not the time to be sad. Things have already happened, and you can't get things back if you are sad. What we have to do now is It’s better to make up for it before it’s too late.”

Yanyu nodded and said, "I understand that we did not do our job this time. If you have anything you need us to do, just ask and I will definitely cooperate."

I nodded and turned around and gave Rose a wink to signal her to take over. Rose immediately took over and said, "Zi Ri is right. The most important thing now is to recover the losses as much as possible. And to minimize the losses, I think Three things should be done first.”

"You said it. I'll do it right away." Yanyu said seriously.

Rose nodded and said: "The first thing is to immediately send someone to find the missing jar of liquefied magic crystal steam. It is best to find it before the other party uses it. The second thing is to comprehensively inventory all warehouses in your guild. , we just discovered that the loss was only in Warehouse No. 3. There is no guarantee that other warehouses will not have similar situations, so we must count all the warehouse materials in your guild as soon as possible. Focus on investigating the warehouses related to the 'liquefied' magic crystal steam, but other warehouses and Supplies cannot be ignored. After all, the other party is targeting all of us. It is not a good thing for us if they get anything. We must confirm what has been lost as soon as possible. The third thing is that we must find the insider in your guild immediately. And control him, and if it doesn't work, he will be killed and expelled from the guild. This kind of person is a huge threat to all of us if he stays in the guild. You can think about it if the other party detonates a liquid in your warehouse 'What will be the consequences of converting the magic crystal steam storage tank?"

When Yanyu thought of the whole can of liquefied magic crystal steam exploding in the guild headquarters, she immediately trembled and felt all the hairs on her body stand up. However, he suddenly realized something and turned to look at us in surprise and asked: "Wait, you mean the jar is not empty?"

"Nonsense, why did the other party put so much effort into stealing an empty jar?" Hongyue pointed to the jar we brought and said, "This jar was almost full when we found it."

When Yanyu heard this, her already ugly face turned even uglier. He said as if talking to himself: "If the empty can was stolen and it was just a problem in the warehouse, but now the can is full, but the record says that the can is empty, that means..."

Hong Yue said: "Yes, there must be insiders in your guild's liquefied magic crystal steam filling and transportation department, and there may even be some of their people among the guards, otherwise there will be a full bottle of liquefied magic crystal steam." It is impossible that after it was stolen, a record sheet was issued that sealed the empty bottle."

Rose followed: "Thanks to us accidentally discovering this bottle of liquefied magic crystal steam this time, otherwise the other party will wait until they have used up this bottle of liquefied magic crystal steam and then send the empty bottle back to your warehouse for next time During transportation, you give us the empty jars, and our guild will fill them and ship them to you, and then they will steal them and use them. If this continues, you will pay us to help them produce liquefied magic crystals. It’s steaming, how much do you think we’ll lose during this process?”

Yanyu almost cried after what we said. He raised his head and tried his best to hold back the tears while saying: "I thought our Northern Alliance was developing well and powerfully, but it turned out that it was already full of holes! Isn't it true that blindly expanding the scale will not work? ?”

Su Mei suddenly interjected: "Large-scale expansion has the advantage of large-scale expansion. The elite route of our Frost Rose Alliance is not a perfect route. At least our initial expansion will be difficult, but we can survive the initial difficulties." , when the scale grows, it will be much easier. This large-scale expansion of yours can quickly gather resources and develop rapidly to seize the living space. In the early stage, you will be much stronger than us, but in the later stage, as the guild grows bigger, various internal If the forces are restrained by each other, they will lack the ability to expand, and the guild's power will be gradually consumed in internal fighting. Like this time, it is actually a good thing for the problem to be exposed. As long as you can get through this painful period, there will definitely be another one in the future. Rapid development by leaps and bounds. However, the form of your guild has been fixed. Even if it can develop rapidly for a period of time after this time, similar incidents will definitely happen over time. You can only ensure the guild by constantly cleaning up internally. Steady development, but over-cleaning it will in turn harm your own development potential, and you have to master the intermediate level yourself."

Yanyu looked at Sumei and said, "It would be great if our guild had a think tank like you!"

Su Mei smiled and said: "If the annual salary exceeds five million crystal coins, can I consider changing jobs? If not, part-time work is fine. I don't mind making extra money."

"Hahahaha" Yanyu, who was about to cry, was immediately amused by Sumei, but after laughing, his expression became serious. "Don't worry, I will definitely clean out the bugs in the guild this time."

I nodded and said: "In addition to telling you this matter, we are here to assist you in your investigation. After all, the other party's stealing of the liquefied magic crystal steam is also a huge threat to us, so we hope that you can temporarily open permissions to us. Let us investigate in your guild. Of course, you can keep the confidential authority of your guild, we only need some authority related to this matter."

Yanyu nodded and said: "This is what it should be. I will open it for you right now."

After obtaining some guild authority from Yanyu, we briefly discussed the division of labor among everyone, and finally decided that Hongyue and I would track down the missing jar of liquefied magic crystal steam. Rose's mission is to stay and assist Yanyu in inventorying the warehouse supplies. After all, Rose is in charge of logistics in our guild. She is familiar with these tasks, and she should be able to check them much faster than the average person. Moreover, the Northern Alliance now doesn't know who they can trust. Instead of risking using these people, it would be better for Rose, an absolutely assured outsider, to investigate. In the end, Su Mei's job was to assist Yan Yu in investigating who the traitors in their guild were and how they operated. With Su Mei's intelligence and understanding of human behavior and popular psychology, he should be much better at handling this kind of thing than the amateur investigators of the Northern Alliance. In addition, we also specially reserved two mobile angels for Su Mei to use against the protoss, to prevent some of the traitor masters from suddenly counterattacking and escaping after being discovered. There are two teams that use mobile angels to control the situation around Sumei against the gods. As long as they don't encounter the top 100 masters in the world's combat power list, they can usually handle it.

After arranging the tasks, Yanyu arranged for two groups of trustworthy people to assess Su Mei and Mei Mei first. After confirming that there was nothing wrong with these people, Yanyu told them the matter. Then Yanyu assigned them to the shocked expressions of these people. task. Most of them were assigned to Rose to assist her in checking the guild's inventory. After all, this matter required a lot of manpower. One of the remaining people was assigned to me and Hongyue to be responsible for the liaison and communication within the guild, and the remaining people all went with Yanyu to catch the traitor with Su Mei.

After the tasks were arranged, our group immediately went our separate ways and started doing our own thing.

The person who was assigned to help me and Hongyue was a very sunny boy. His profession was a very common Paladin. However, his level was quite high and his equipment was pretty good. As long as he didn’t run into anyone at my level, he would be able to help me. You can walk sideways on it.

"President Purple Sun, President Red Moon, I am Prince Charming. I am so excited to help you."

"Pfft..." Hongyue burst into laughter upon hearing this guy's name. "what's your name?"

The guy grabbed his hair in embarrassment and said: "Hey, when I first created the account, I wanted to be more popular. And I didn't read the instructions at the time. I thought I could change the name at will later, so I chose this name. Now Instead, it became a laughing stock!”

I also smiled and said: "You are pretty good. There is a guy in our guild named 'Sex' Wolf who has good conditions in all aspects, but because of his name, he still doesn't have a girlfriend. In comparison, you are lucky. , at least Prince Charming doesn’t want anyone to spare.”

The guy smiled helplessly and did not say anything more about the matter. Instead, he turned to the topic and said: "The things should have been in warehouse No. 3, but I can't be sure whether they were lost after being transported to the warehouse or whether they only had storage records. The things were already there before. The links have already been shipped away. Do you think we should start the investigation from Warehouse No. 3 or what to do?"

Now that it's down to business, we all become serious. I thought for a while and said, "Anyway, I'd better check Warehouse No. 3 first. If it's confirmed that it wasn't lost in the warehouse, then we can push it forward. Otherwise, the chance of looking for it aimlessly will be even slimmer."

Hongyue also nodded in agreement with my opinion, so we headed straight to Warehouse No. 3 under the leadership of Prince Charming.

The Northern Alliance's Warehouse No. 3 is actually a transit warehouse. All materials prepared for transshipment are stored here. Therefore, the flow of goods is relatively large, making it quite troublesome to check. What's even more annoying is that the warehouse and the teleportation hall are actually on the front and rear streets, separated only by an alley less than three meters wide and two courtyard walls more than two meters high, which creates an abnormal outflow channel for goods. It has changed a lot. Moreover, since the other party has so many internal agents within the Northern Alliance, the supplies may not have been obtained through abnormal channels. The advantage of self-inflicted theft is that you can pull things out openly without being suspected. Of course, for the sake of insurance, you do not rule out the possibility that the other party will choose troublesome ways to transport it. Generally speaking, there are too many possibilities, and there is no clue at all when looking up.

"President Ziri, how on earth are we going to check with so many records of moving materials?" After arriving at Warehouse No. 3, Prince Charming asked helplessly as he looked at the mountain of records of incoming and outgoing materials.

I didn’t answer Prince Charming’s question directly, but told him what to do with my actions. As the gate to the earth opened, groups of unicorn warriors ran out, and then I released the death guards. Don't think that summoned creatures can only be used as thugs. It's better to break that fixed mentality as soon as possible.

With such a large group of subordinates helping to turn over information, the speed is absolutely astonishing. As for myself, I don’t even have to look at anything. I just stand on top of a pile of boxes and give orders.

"Attention everyone, please bring me the material entry and exit records from three days ago and the manual records for the day."

Following my order, the summoned creatures immediately started moving, and soon the information I wanted was revealed. Putting other information aside first, I then said: "Compare the records of the day and calculate whether the transportation volume and material entry and exit records of the day are consistent."

This time it took a little longer. After all, comparing numbers is still quite troublesome. Even if there are many people, it will not be fast. After about half an hour, a Qilin warrior finally reported: "Report, the records don't match!"

This time, not only me, but also Prince Charming also reacted. If the records don't match up, it means someone is playing tricks, and this is our clue.

I quickly jumped off the box and ran to the Kirin warrior and asked, "What is the specific situation?"

"The entry record of the day's cargo transportation shows that four 'liquefied' magic crystal steam storage tanks were transported in, but there are only two records of vehicles entering and exiting."

After listening to the report, Hongyue immediately said: "It seems that our liquefied magic crystal steam has never entered the warehouse at all!"

The liquefied magic crystal steam storage tank uses a special transport vehicle, which can only transport one tank of liquefied magic crystal steam at a time. There was only one vehicle involved in the transportation that day, and it only entered and exited twice, which means that there were only two tanks. The liquefied magic crystal steam storage tank arrived, and the other two tanks that were recorded did not exist at all.

"Check the transportation records immediately. Who was responsible for the transportation that day?"
