Chapter 325: The Power of Information
Iceberg's first thought was that Lucci and the others had been bribed by other factions.
— What are you doing?
Given Kaku's actions, it was obvious that they were no longer his subordinates.
— You seem confused, Mr. Iceberg! Lucci adjusted his hat and smiled at the Iceberg.
— Were you bribed by another company or a large group of pirates? But I tried not to offend anyone.
He was stunned at first, but quickly began to think.
— Pirates? Time is running out, let's get right to the point, " Lucci motioned Kaka to let go of the Iceberg, and he got off it.
The iceberg immediately sat down, but did not even try to do something strange.
Three of the five people in his office were his good friends, but they had betrayed him.
— Iceberg, give me the blueprint for Pluto and your end won't be painful, " Lucci said, and when Iceberg heard the word "Pluto", his pupils narrowed and his mouth opened slightly.
— You... They weren't bribed by companies or pirates, " Iceberg clenched his fists and trembled.
— Of course, "Lucci paused for a moment before continuing —" Time is running out, and since we need to get this done quickly, don't make things difficult for yourself and us.
Iceberg grimaced as he realized who Lucci and the others were.
— You've probably heard of WED. From CP1 to CP8, these are the usual departments that were created to collect data for the World Government, " Lucci said..
— I've heard of them. The people in these departments are using everything to get the information they need, " Iceberg muttered and lowered his eyes as he understood what he was getting at.
— But we're from CP9. We have some privileges compared to other departments, and our identities can't be revealed.
— Privileges?
— Yes, even though we work for the government, we have the right to execute anyone who doesn't make contact.
Iceberg's face paled. — Who would have thought-government people kill people they don't like for the sake of "justice».
Lucci ignored him and continued, — You only have one choice. Give me the blueprint for Pluto. Some people in the World Government have changed their minds. They decided not to be afraid of creating ancient weapons anymore. They decided to create it themselves and put an end to the era of chaos.
The iceberg snorted.
— Nonsense, if this weapon is created, it will only lead to even more casualties and even more unpredictable chaos.
— You don't seem to trust the World Government, Iceberg.
— I just know human nature, kid.
Lucci's face turned cold and he slowly walked towards the Iceberg.
— Do you still think that we are your subordinates?
Before the Iceberg could speak, Lucci kicked him right in the face.
*Boom!*
The iceberg hit the bookshelf and various books and papers rained down on it.
— I speak to you with some respect, and you think you're our boss.
— Lucci, there are 16 minutes left, if you can't make it, I'll take care of everything, " Su Xiao said. He had an agreement with Lucci. After meeting the Iceberg, Lucci will have 20 minutes. If he couldn't get him to talk, then Su Xiao would start "talking" to him.
Thinking of Su Xiao's suggestion, even the CP9 agents ' bodies shivered.
— I remember, " Lucci said, and looked at the Iceberg.
— Iceberg, for the safety of your family and friends, if you don't tell us about the drawing...
Blood flowed from the Iceberg's nose and mouth, even though Lucci had only lightly kicked it.
— Heh~, do you really think that kind of threat will work? You're too naive. Do you really think I'm that stupid? These weapons must not fall into the hands of the wrong people. I don't care, even if everyone I know dies, you won't get anything, " Iceberg said and smiled.
The door to the study opened and Kalifa came in, wearing a tight dress and fishnet stockings.
Kalifa had some papers and an old blueprint in her hands, and as she closed the door, she nodded to Lucci.
— My guess was correct. Cutty Flam, also known as Frankie, head of the Frankie family.
Lucci smiled at that.
The Iceberg's head lowered and panic appeared in its eyes.
— Kaku, check his pulse.
Kaku quickly took the Iceberg's hand and placed his middle and index fingers on the Iceberg's arm.
— Iceberg, we won't torture you. It would be an insult to our hard work, which we have been doing for five years, " Lucci said and looked at the time. He still has 11 minutes left.
— You were once an apprentice to Tom, the legendary shipbuilder, but he had two apprentices, you and another, Cutty Flam. Cutty Flam was killed in an accident eight years ago, and the government confirmed his death, so our leads are lost. But after a few years in Water 7, I suddenly realized that the name Cutty Flam was too familiar, and one day Kalifa told me that Cutty Flam came to see you. But how could he come to you when he's long dead? At first, we thought it was an impostor, but after investigating, we discovered that he had changed his name to Frankie and was living in " Water 7».
— So... If you wanted to hide the blueprint for Pluto, you wouldn't hide it in your house, right? The risk is too high, and it's not safe. But if you give it to a person who is long dead, a person who would never use it... What an ideal option, isn't it? You don't have the blueprint for Pluto, because you gave it to Cutty Flam, no, you should call it Frankie now.
Iceberg was sweating, and his heart was racing.
All the CP9 members realized that they had solved the riddle.
