The rain didn't stop all night, and on the muddy soil, the pirates were like wriggling maggots, picking up wealth and food to fill their ugly and bloated bellies.
Not a single trace was left.
"Dry Sivir, what kind of person do you think our captain is?" Lowe stood in the rain, and under the lowered brim of his hat, a pair of black eyes became deeper and colder: "Strong? Cruel? "
Dry Sivir opened her mouth and felt that her rain-soaked clothes were a little cold.
"No, no, no, no!" Lowe licked his lips and sneered: "These are just Captain Via's methods. The purpose is to satisfy his greed that can never be satisfied. Like a hyena that can never eat enough, every time we rob back with our lives, we can only leave a little, and he doesn't have to do anything, he doesn't even have to get off the ship, he just has to wait quietly at the bow, and those idiots will obediently move all the wealth into the captain's room."
"And after that, don't even think about pulling a Berry out of the captain's pocket." Lowe made a funny laugh, but in Dry Sivir's eyes, it became more and more dangerous and ferocious. "By the way, what's the name of the unlucky guy who was hung by the captain last month?"
"Sens!" Dry Sivir swallowed. "He was fighting on the ship, so …"
"Everyone thinks so, haha." Lowe interrupted Dry Sivir. "Actually, it's because he stole into the captain's room and took a bottle of ale and a pocket watch."
Silence!
Dry Sivir was shocked and silent.
After a short silence, Lowe patted Dry Sivir on the shoulder and said meaningfully, "Stealing the captain's wealth will be skinned. Then, Fick and Yarlin have basically gained nothing in the past two months. On Via's pirate ship, even a dog must bring wealth to the captain, otherwise, it can only become a pot of dog meat."
"Because eating for free is also stealing the captain's wealth."
"Gulp." Xavier swallowed her saliva, her voice trembling slightly. "So, Fick and Arlen will be … Captain … Captain … Captain … Captain …" Hang yourself? "
"That's right. Based on my understanding of the captain, two months is his limit." Lowe's gaze swept past Gan Sivir's face, gazing at the blurry shadows of the trees in the distance. It was as if there was a greedy hyena opening its bloody maw in the darkness, its foul saliva mixed with the rain on this rainy night.
In that direction, the hull of the ship creaked. Captain Via stood at the bow of the ship and looked up at the dark curtain of rain. "It's been two years. It's almost time. Just a little more, and I can …" The rain hit his round eyes. It was cold, merciless, without a trace of human warmth.
In the forest, on the muddy slope, Yarlin walked in front with his back bent, while Fick followed behind. Listening to Yarlin's intermittent deductions, his face became more and more unsightly.
"Captain Via won't …" Fick hesitated.
Yarlin climbed up the slope. The slope under his feet was high. Looking down from here, he could see most of the outline of the town. He narrowed his eyes and stared at the pirates in the distance. After a while, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing a cold fox line.
He turned his head and met Fick's eyes. "In the eyes of Captain Via, we are his domesticated hyenas. He gives us bones, and we bring back trophies for him. When this hyena eats nothing, do you think Captain Via will turn it into a pot of dog meat?"
"Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe our captain is really generous?" Yarlin patted Fick on the shoulder and said calmly, "Then guess, will our chief officer Lowe forgive you for your offense today?"
"Bullshit!" Fick's face suddenly turned red. "I don't need his forgiveness. Sivir is a bitch's adopted son, and Lowe is a complete villain, bastard."
"Looks like you've figured it out." Yarlin retracted his palm and sighed, "Unfortunately, Berry is in the pocket of the pirates, so for our own lives, we can only bear the pain of robbing our companions."
"You're not sorry. You were going to rob your own people from the beginning." Fick was stunned. He looked down at the ant-like pirates below and finally understood why Yarlin had to climb here just now. He spat fiercely, "Damn Yarlin, you hypocritical bastard."
"Isn't robbery a black dog?" Yarlin shrugged his shoulders and smiled brightly. "What do you think of Bill?"
Fick looked in the direction Yarlin pointed. Outside the stone wall on the west side of the town, the bald Bill carried a sack and walked out with two other pirates. It seemed that he was ready to return and had a good harvest.
Creak … Creak … Creak …
The sound of footsteps in the muddy water came closer and closer. Judging from the footsteps, there were three people. The rain was still pouring heavily, and it seemed like it wouldn't stop for the night. Around them were shrubs and trees, which formed a perfect cover for the night and the rain. Ya Erlin and Fick were lying motionless inside.
"Bill, William, Chad." Fick lowered his voice. "They're all Lowe's henchmen."
Yarlin crawled on the ground and did not hear Fick's voice. His eyes were in a trance for a moment. He recalled the first time he smuggled in his previous life. He also swallowed the money and goods of the other party. He didn't know if it was fate. Both lives had the same beginning. He put away his thoughts and laughed at himself in his heart. "Sure enough, I'm not a good person by nature."
His eyes became cold and his attention was highly focused. He pulled out a short knife with his right hand. He didn't know when the glove on his left hand had been taken off and his dark fingers were inserted into the mud.
Quiet, quiet!
"That man actually dared to resist. He was as thin as a stick like a monkey. I split his head in half. Then, the people around him trembled like quails." Bill boasted loudly about his bravery.
There was a bloody bite mark on the back of Chad's left hand that was touching his crotch. He cursed as he walked. Combined with the blood stained rusty axe in his right hand and the hair stuck to it, it wasn't hard to imagine what kind of cruel scene had just happened.
"Damn, this time we have to hand in so much. The chief officer was right. We can't even drink soup if we follow Via." William's voice was low and resentful. "How long do we have to wait? Every time the chief officer says it will be soon. I've had enough."
"Shut up!" Bill glared and growled. "Be careful. If the captain hears about this, you'll get us killed."
After saying that, Bill suppressed his emotions. He glanced around and saw that there was no one around. His voice softened. "The first mate told me in private that he was about to find out the captain's secret. That would be the day of Weya's death. Then, when the first mate becomes the captain, our good days will come."
"Secret?" William and Chad's eyes lit up at the same time.
"I don't know. The chief officer didn't tell me." Bill's voice suddenly stopped. "Zzz —" A sharp sound was suddenly heard. A short knife was placed horizontally against Bill's throat.
From left to right, it was sliced open!
Like a silver bottle breaking, a cold light and blood splattered. A face appeared beside Bill's head. It was Yarlin!
"Robbery!" he said.
