Chapter 238 Foreign Forces
After saying goodbye to Heinard and Lucina, Chen Ke decided to go to the gun store to meet Pihom, not only for the 2 million pinks obtained from the bank robbery, but also for two things Chen Ke wanted to discuss with Pihom.
The first is about weapons and ammunition.
Chen Ke has three psychic pistols, one of which was given to Lucina, and he still has two in his hand. These three guns were brought from the 2006 timeline. He is not sure whether the management bureau of this world can detect the existence of these guns.
Parker is also a person who traveled through time. His gun can be detected by the management bureau, but his nature is not the same as in 2006. Chen Ke considers finding time to try it...
Lucina is not a psychic, and the gun in her hand is just a toy, so Chen Ke does not have to worry about her being targeted by the management bureau.
The gun was there, but the bullets were a problem. In the 2006 world, Chen Ke had specially brought a large bag of punishment bullets... but he still encountered some troubles, which resulted in the bullets not being brought out smoothly...
He had to ask Pihom if he had any channels to get some bullets from the Administration...
He only had a Glock 17 as an ordinary pistol. There was nothing wrong with using this gun, but after all, it was not his gun, and it was modified to be suitable for left-handed people. Chen Ke felt awkward using it.
He needed a customized and concealed new pistol, preferably with a built-in silencer to save the trouble of manual disassembly.
The second one was about the green holy diamond...
Asra and the Si Consortium both regarded it as a treasure, and Chen Ke was unable to identify and summon it. It seemed to be an incredible thing. This thing was now placed in the postman's safe house. Chen Ke wanted to know what Pihom was going to do.
Without further ado, the taxi quickly took Chen Ke from the deep anchor area to the rolling iron area. He pushed open the door of the gun shop and saw Pihom cleaning his antique gun at the counter.
When Pihom saw Chen Ke, he did not show much reaction, still looking at Blackbeard's musket, as if looking at a work of art.
"Pihom, I saw the text message." Chen Ke said.
"Where have you been these two days? The call was not in the service area." Pihom asked.
"It's a long story. I met some enemies. Next time I will come earlier..." Chen Ke replied.
"I don't mean to blame you, Chen Ke, it's just... you know, sometimes we also need to disappear for a while. The place where you hid these two days is really not covered. No one can find it... If you have a few such places... you might as well share it..." Pihom pushed his glasses and said.
"Uh... you definitely don't want to go there... If I can find a better place than there, I will tell you." Chen Ke smiled.
"Well... I'll get straight to the point, Chen Ke. First of all, I have to express my small apologies to you, because the money robbed from the bank... There were some problems in the processing, and it may take a while before the money can be distributed." Pihom said.
"Oh? What's the problem?" Chen Ke asked.
"You must have no time to watch TV these two days... You don't trade stocks, right?" Pihom asked.
"Tell me about it, I don't know much about those things." Chen Ke spread his hands.
Before crossing, he was a poor loser, how could he have money to trade stocks and manage his finances?
"Wall Street has not been very peaceful recently, as if it has been hit by something... The stock prices of many psychic and technology giants have fallen a lot." Pihom said.
"Isn't it normal for stocks to rise and fall? And many times it is artificially manipulated... You didn't use that money to trade stocks and then got cut off, did you?" Chen Ke worried.
He didn't believe that Pihom was so unprofessional that he used the money he had just robbed to trade stocks... He didn't even wash it...
"You are really fucking kidding, Chen Ke... There is a force abroad that is shorting the stock market of the United Federation, and not only that, many psychic companies have also received acquisition invitations from the Phoenix Republic consortium... This matter is not simple." Pihom said.
Chen Ke didn't know what the Phoenix Republic wanted to do, but he did come into contact with certain things in the previous assassination missions.
It was as if the secret cooperation meeting between the spiritual enterprises of the United Federation was being split by the Asian consortium.
"What does this have to do with our money laundering?" Chen Ke asked.
"The United Currency has depreciated greatly in the past two days... In order to fight against the economic war of foreign forces, the federal government has been very sensitive to the direction of money recently, so the channels for money laundering have become quiet." Pihom shook his head.
"Do you think this is a state action?" Chen Ke asked.
"I don't know, how can I know such a thing... But the economic war of state actions is generally not to increase taxes on each other... But this time it is completely different, more like an act between companies..." Pihom said.
"Okay, the money is not urgent... I still have some savings... But you have to do me a favor, I need guns and bullets." Chen Ke said.
"This is not even a help, Chen Ke! I have plenty of guns and bullets here." Pihom laughed.
"I need a... pistol with a built-in silencer. And it shouldn't be too big." Chen Ke said.
After hearing this, Pihom lowered his head and pondered for a while, as if searching for a weapon that met Chen Ke's requirements in his memory.
After a long while, he frowned and looked at Chen Ke, saying, "There aren't many pistols with built-in silencers... let alone small ones... what do you want that kind of pistol for... assassination?"
"It's just a personal hobby, Pihom... I like weapons that aren't too noisy." Chen Ke shrugged.
"There are two guns that meet your requirements... and I just happen to have them here... Come with me." Pihom said, and walked into the safe house.
Chen Ke followed closely, and followed Pihom to the gun preparation room of the safe house. The safe house was empty today. Hall and Priskin were not there. Everyone had just made a big deal, and they were all keeping a low profile and conserving their energy.
Pihom took out two small black boxes from a box, which contained two very old and simple pistols. Judging from the old appearance and design style, these two guns are already quite old.
Chen Ke stood aside, hugged his chest, and looked at the weapons in Pihom's hand, which was a bit difficult to say.
"These two guns are a bit old, but they are both agent pistols with built-in silencers... Of course, they are definitely not usable in this situation now." Pihom said, picked up one of the simple pistols and handed it to Chen Ke.
Chen Ke took the gun and found that it was like two water pipes put together. It was very uncomfortable to hold in his hand. The trigger was a bent iron ring, just like a plastic water gun.
"This gun is called the Wilrod MKII Silent Pistol. It is a special agent pistol developed during World War II. Only more than 2,000 were produced. It is a legendary old gun. I finally got one." Pihom said proudly.
"Pihom, what I want is a killing weapon... not a collectible..." Chen Ke spread his hands.
"I know, I didn't ask you to take it like this... Priskin has been very idle recently, he can help you customize it..." Pihom said.
"Oh... have you asked him?" Chen Ke asked.
"I'll ask him after you choose." Pihom smiled and picked up another one and handed it to Chen Ke.
Chen Ke took the gun. This one looked much more normal than the Wilrod MKII. The shape was very Sura style, and there was even a red star decorated on the grip...
