Taking a sharp breath of the salty sea breeze, Danitz's hands holding the skirt of his clothes froze beside him, and he slowly turned around and looked at the door of the living room.
The door that was still open there had been closed, and a young blond lady wearing a simple gray dress was looking at him with a smile.
It's the woman who made a big fuss about "Flying Fish and Wine" last night... she is also on White Agate? The guy with her must be here too!
Danitz instantly remembered this beautiful face, and then thought of the man in a trench coat wearing a black top hat who could turn into his own appearance, and thought of the weird "hungry" that seemed to swallow him up in one bite...
Wait, I was discovered by Mandated Punishers. Could it be because that man turned into me and did something bad?
He suddenly understood.
At this time, I should jump out of the window. The White Agate has not driven far yet and I can swim to the shore soon. Even if there is a whole team of Mandated Punishers there, I am confident that I can hide and seek with them... Or I can swim directly to other ships and blend in among the passengers, wherever I want...
Danitz Several thoughts came to mind, and he raised and lowered his hands, but in the end, the "Fire Flame" calmed down the flames in his heart, put one hand on his chest, bowed slightly, and squeezed out what he thought was the most handsome smile on his lips.
"Good morning, beautiful lady, nice to see you again."
At this moment, Danitz was extremely grateful to "Iceberg Admiral" Edwina for the etiquette course conducted among the crew.
"Really? What about him?"
the lady at the door asked softly.
he? who?
Danitz just raised his head and looked at each other in confusion when he saw a black flame coming out between the two people. In an instant, the fist-sized flame exploded, and the bright yellow inside surged out, outlining a slightly thin figure.
Gehrman Sparrow appears from the flames.
"Why on board?"
"Go to the Rhoside Islands, Bayam."
"What are you doing there?"
Isn't it because you, a piece of shit, pretended to be me and wandered around causing me to be chased by Mandated Punishers all night, so I had to secretly buy a ticket and leave by boat?
"The vacation is over. I'm going to wait for the captain's orders. Maybe there will be a new mission."
Looking at the indifferent Klein in front of him, Danitz forced a smile and found a reason that was not wrong. After he sent a telegram to Bayam's contact person, he was indeed planning to end his vacation early, but being kicked out by Mandated Punishers was not in his plan.
"Ding——"
Klein quickly tossed a coin to confirm that Danitz was not lying. When the other party's attention was attracted by the flying coins, he nodded with a straight face.
"Don't leave the room except to eat."
He ordered in a low voice.
Why? Why?
Danitz felt like he was about to explode.
Although the lady still leaning against the door kept showing a heart-warming smile, the man in front of her always exuded a faint sense of "hunger". His arrogant words and indifferent eyes always reminded Danitz of their encounter last night.
Can't beat it, definitely can't beat it...
"Okay."
He sighed helplessly and replied, feeling that buying a ticket for the White Agate was the biggest mistake he had made this year.
The only thing that made him happy was that he had booked a first-class room instead of a second-class room that even shared the bathroom. It was not so uncomfortable to stay in the room all the time.
Comforting himself in this way, Danitz watched Klein walk to the living room door, but the young lady slowly walked over and said with a smile:
"A lock of your hair, a tube of blood."
"Huh?"
Danitz first suspected that he heard wrongly, but it took a moment to realize what the other party meant.
"In occultism, any part of the body, even a drop of blood or a hair, is an extremely important medium, allowing people to track your location and even directly cast some vicious curses."
He remembered what Edwina, who was also the "teacher" of the pirates on the ship, had said, and a chill suddenly ran through his heart.
There is no doubt that the other party is asking for blood and hair in order to track him at any time and even cast some fatal curse from a distance.
They didn't believe me at all, and still thought I had other purposes for boarding the ship, such as acting as an inside agent to cooperate with other pirate ships to hijack White Agate, or drilling a big hole in the bottom of the ship and directly sinking the Passenger Ship!
Why did I think she was beautiful just now and her smile was heart-warming?
Shit!
Danitz was so furious that he suddenly pulled out the dagger from his waist and held the handle tightly, veins bulging out on the back of his hand.
Then, he took off the wig on his head, carefully cut off a lock of blond hair, and handed it to the lady in front of him.
"Is this enough?" he asked with a forced smile.
"Do you believe this 'Fire Flame' Danitz?"
Walking out of Room 312, Angel looked at the dark red blood in the glass bottle in his hand and whispered.
She summoned a wisp of invisible silk thread, wrapped it around the small glass bottle, and used the power of Frost to cause its temperature to drop sharply and frost on the surface, which could preserve the blood longer. Intimidation was Danitz as a hostage.
"The divination reminds him that he is not lying. Maybe he is really being chased by the navy or Mandated Punishers at the port, so he is preparing to escape by boat. But we still have to be careful. I will keep an eye on him at all times."
Klein twisted the short golden hair in his hand and put it into a cigarette case. Using these hairs, he could track Danitz's movements at any time and detect him in time when he tried to escape.
He lives next door to us, so it always feels a little inconvenient... Angel thought with some melancholy, and walked towards the restaurant with Klein. When passing by Room 305, the door opened just in time, and Danton's figure wearing a children's version of a tuxedo appeared beside the door, followed by Donna who was pushing him forward.
Seeing Angel and Klein, the siblings looked happy at the same time. Donna closed the door with his backhand, stopped in front of Angel, looked at her excitedly and said:
"Sister Angelica, uncle Sparrow, what was that huge skeleton yesterday?"
After a pause, she added:
"I definitely didn't tell anyone else. Well, only Danton knew. He also saw it, but he didn't dare to say anything."
The little boy on the side pursed his lips and nodded, with the same expression of curiosity and excitement on his face. It seemed that the sister and brother had gotten rid of their fear in communicating with each other last night, leaving only the desire to explore White Bone Messenger.
"That's just a messenger. He's helping other people in distant places deliver letters to Sparrow, uncle."
Seeing that Klein was reluctant to communicate in order to maintain his character, Angel took the initiative to bend down and look at Danton to explain, and couldn't help laughing when he mentioned "uncle".
"Messenger..." Danton repeated the word.
"He is the postman, the person who delivers newspapers and various bills to dad every day," Donna explained, patting his brother's head, and then changed his tone, "Can we also have such a messenger?"
I have only seen two messengers, and neither of them belongs to me... Angel could hardly hold back the smile on his face, and looked at Klein as if asking for help. The latter had a calm expression and replied calmly:
"It depends on luck. Maybe you have a chance to meet your unique messenger."
These words successfully aroused the hope of the siblings, which can be seen in their increasingly bright eyes.
"But why couldn't Mom, Dad, and Uncle Krivis see it? There were many people on the deck at the time, but they didn't react at all!"
Soon, curious baby Donna asked a new question.
If you share the bacon you bought with them, I'm afraid the whole ship will fall into panic about the huge White Bone Messenger...
Angel The correct answer flashed in her mind, but she just answered with a smile:
"Only children with pure hearts can see it."
I'm not a child anymore - Donna muttered, but a bright smile appeared on his face obviously because of his difference.
Several people came to the first-class exclusive restaurant. It was not lunch time, but the restaurant still served a variety of pastries, coffee, and juice. It was the most common place for passengers besides Recreation Room.
Angel met Captain Erlan here. The latter was holding a cup of coffee and looking at Damir Island who was walking away from the stern of the boat. He didn't know what he was thinking about. He only turned his attention here after Angel took the initiative to say hello.
"Good morning, you two," he said as he held up his coffee cup, "The people from 'White Shark' didn't give you any trouble last night, did they?"
"After leaving the bar, we went back to White Agate." Angel replied, immediately realizing the reason why Aierlan asked, "Did they find you?"
"Oh, that guy feels he has lost face and wants double compensation. I won't drink that pile of low-quality wine, let alone his people who started the trouble in the first place." Aierlan sneered at Hamilton's threat. "Anyway, we have reached an agreement. I was lucky last night and won more than ten pounds. I gave him an extra two pounds as a tip to send him away."
After injuring two guards, a bartender, and smashing a shelf of low-quality wine, he only had to pay two pounds in compensation. It seems that the captain's own reputation also had a lot of deterrent effect... Angel thought and nodded with a smile:
"Thank you."
Aierlan raised the coffee cup again in response.
"Captain!"
At this moment, a crew member climbed up the ladder from the deck below with a look of panic. He wanted to continue shouting, but when he saw many people in the restaurant, he moved closer to Aierlan and whispered something.
Angel vaguely heard the words "pirate ship" and "Red Skull".
Many passengers who were killing time in the restaurant also noticed the movement here and came over one after another. Seeing this, Aierlan said to everyone seriously:
"Don't panic. There is a pirate ship in the distance. My White Agate is full of firepower and the crew is well-trained. There is no need to be afraid of them.
"Please everyone leave the restaurant in an orderly manner, return to your room, close the windows, and wait for the good news. I don't want to find out that no one was hurt by the pirates after I defeated them, but I have fallen and squeezed several people."
His words trying to liven up the atmosphere did not elicit any laughter. The passengers quickly left under the guidance of the crew and returned to their respective suites. Angel and Klein also followed them back to the first-class cabin, but instead of going to Room 310, they went straight to Room 312 next door.
Opening the unlocked door, the two were surprised to see that "Fire Flame" Danitz was not running away or preparing to fight, but was holding a small monocular telescope and looking out the window with undisguised anxiety on his face.
He turned around immediately when he heard the door opening.
"If I said that this pirate ship has nothing to do with me, would you believe it?"
Seeing Angel take out the glass bottle containing his own blood from his pocket, Danitz forced out a smile and said.
Outside the window, a huge pirate ship appeared on the sea level, breathing thick smoke and approaching White Agate quickly.
