MTL - Pirates: Steel Chain Fingers-Chapter 8 small talk
"Boss, Mr. Tarrou and Little Jack have led the gang to start the restoration work of the town center. The townspeople are more stable and have started to build together."
There is a huge luxury mansion on the west side of Alghero town, which is the headquarters of the 'Coral' organization.
In a luxurious room on the third floor, several stacks of account books were stacked on the wool carpet in the middle of the house, and together with the account books were several weapons and antiques that looked extraordinary. In front of the luxurious round table, a thin old man in a black dress was meticulously describing the restoration progress of the town center to Victor.
At this time, Viktor no longer had the usual mature and stern look on his back, and his half-length blond hair was casually scattered to the side of his ears, leaving only a strand hanging on his forehead, which made him even more handsome.
He sat in the chair and looked through the account book, while Perona stood behind him smiling, her little hands slapped randomly on Victor's shoulders as a relaxing massage.
"I see. Mr. Wendrew, please take the time to supervise the work process." Victor closed the ledger and nodded gently to the old man.
"Please rest assured, boss. In addition, at 6 o'clock in the evening, there will be a reception specially organized by the mayor for you at the Cocosiro restaurant. Please don't forget to attend. Then, I will retire first." The old man put his hand on his chest slightly With a bow, he quietly left the room.
When Perona saw no outsiders, she no longer pretended to be a stable girl, and sat down on the soft big bed and started rolling: "Hey hoo hoo hoo~~ Brother Victor, this bed is so soft and comfortable!"
Victor smiled: "If you like it, this room will be yours for the time being."
"Temporarily?" Perona stopped rolling, lying on the bed with her hands on her chin, her round eyes with a trace of puzzlement: "Is it because of your follow-up plan, brother? Are we really going to the Great Channel? I think... I think Xihai is pretty good." She said, her mood was a little down.
Victor rubbed Perona's little pink head: "Perona, if you are on the sidelines, you can only be a frog in the bottom of the well like Mr. Pippin. We agreed, didn't we? Let's go to the great waterway and do something together!"
Perona's little emotions were immediately forgotten, and she held Victor's hand and said softly, "I don't care, as long as I'm with my brother, I'm willing to go wherever I go!"
She happily ran to the table, picked up the matcha cake, and ate a spoonful of it. Thinking it was delicious, she dug out another spoonful and handed it to Victor: "By the way, brother, why did you ask me to pay attention not to attack that middle-aged uncle? Speaking of which, the uncle is so bold that he doesn't care if everyone else runs away. Just watch us fight."
"That's the newly appointed Admiral Cron of the Alghero Township Naval Branch. Hmm...sweet."
Victor opened his mouth to taste the cake, and waved to Perona to indicate that she could enjoy it by herself. He stood up and looked out the window, where he could vaguely see the ruined residential buildings in full swing in the center of the town.
"Our Colonel Crohn is not simple. He is well-informed and has a wide range of contacts. He especially likes to wander around in his own jurisdiction. The Naval Academy, in agreement with Vice Admiral Ku, are all students of Admiral Zefa."
"Ah? But that uncle doesn't look very good." Perona was eating hot, and her little face was full of cake crumbs.
Victor turned his head and saw Perona's appalling eating image, and reluctantly handed her a handkerchief: "Wipe."
"I was paying attention to the new chief of the 91 branch a long time ago, and Mr. Crohn really gave me a surprise." Victor squatted down, picked up the antiques on the carpet and began to examine them one by one, and took time to talk to Pei. Rona chatted: "This Mr. Crohn knows that his strength is mediocre, so he tried his best to have a good relationship with his teacher, General Zefa. It has been 22 years since the old man lost his son in middle age, and he is not lonely. It's definitely not realistic, and under Crohn's flattery, it can be regarded as treating Crohn as a half-nephew."
"Oh! So this uncle is not a good person?" Perona wiped her mouth casually and started to conquer the matcha cake.
"Hehe, silly girl, how can you tell the difference between good and bad?" Victor shook his head amusingly, picked up a long knife next to the antique and looked at it: "Mr. Crohn's smashed it two months ago A major event seemed to annoy the top of the navy headquarters, and under the protection of General Zefa, he finally retained his rank. However, the headquarters still did not like him, so he was thrown by Zefa to the Xihai 91 branch to avoid the limelight. "
"...Brother, how did you know so much about the navy?" Perona felt that her brother was amazing, as if there was nothing in the world that he didn't know.
"These semi-circulating information can be obtained with money." Victor looked at the long knife in his hand, raised his eyebrows in surprise, put the long knife on the open space next to him, and continued to chat with Perona: "This old man I must be unwilling to be sent to the rural area of Xihai, and there is only one way to return to the headquarters - to make contributions."
"Where does the credit come from? Me. I'm his credit. Knowing that he must have some old troubles and want to walk around when he arrives in the jurisdiction, I monitored his travel route with arrogance and domineering, and then deliberately led Cartman to him. must pass.”
Perona's eyes widened, full of admiration: "And then, brother, you pretended to be a coincidence in front of him, killing the stinky rogue Cartman to show his strength to attract his attention?"
"Smart girl." Victor nodded approvingly, stood up and put the identified long knife in the box, and said in a leisurely tone: "Next, I will use the ability of the chain fruit to defeat Talma Pi with a destructive force. Ping, plus the arrival of 'Snake-tailed Snake' and 'Evil Bandit' is also under my surveillance. After the battle, the poor Colonel Crohn will rush back to the branch base as soon as possible to give his dear Ze Teacher Fa made a private phone call."
"As for the content of the call, I can guess. It is nothing more than mentioning the fruit of the chain to evoke Zefa's sexuality, and then praise the three gang leaders to reflect how strong I am, and then report my age and Mentioning that I will be arrogant and arrogant, UU reading www.uukanshu.com and then it will be."
"It's done? What's done?" Perona's cake was not eaten, and she asked cooperatively.
"Crohn knows Zefa very well. After being the chief instructor for so many years, Zefa always loves special talents, especially for a person who has not yet embarked on the road of pirates, has no major misdeeds, and is an alternate lieutenant general or even an alternate lieutenant general. It was a special temptation for Zefa to be a potential admiral and young civilian talent to be taught in the Navy, even though Zefa himself may not have been aware of this vile habit. As long as Zefa took me back forcibly If the headquarters is brainwashed into a loyal dog of the navy, then Crohn’s notification of cooperation is also a great achievement, and returning to the headquarters is naturally a matter of course.”
Perona stood up in fright, and she couldn't care less about the cake falling to the ground: "Then then, brother, aren't you very dangerous? Is that Zefa a general? In short, he is a very powerful one. If he comes to Xihai, you are not very dangerous. Is it hard to beat him?"
"It's not that it's hard to beat him, but with my current strength, I have absolutely no hope of escaping from him. That's Zefa the Black Wrist, the former Admiral of the Navy." Victor smiled disapprovingly and waved his hand for Pei. Lorna sat back: "Don't worry, everything is in my plan. Zefa couldn't get away from coming to me, because he was going to have a big disaster soon after counting the time. And Crohn was still fantasizing about Zefa. He will come to arrest me in the near future, I am already a lamb to be slaughtered in his eyes, coupled with the current 'Coral''s friendly attitude towards civilians, the navy's level of alertness to us will also be minimized."
He picked up the box with the long sword and stood in front of the door, beckoning Perona to follow: "And our opportunity to start the second stage of the strategy is at this once-in-a-lifetime period."
"Come on, let's see the new warehouse keeper, Mr. Capone Becky."
