Chapter 261: Hidden Goods
It was getting dark. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
When Lady Emily faints, the Straw Hats immediately return her to her merchant ship, followed by a reindeer doctor.
The Nabo, the captain's bedchamber.
"What the hell is going on with my mother?
Looking at Lady Emily, who was lying unconscious on the hospital bed, a cute boy with sea-blue eyes and about eight or nine years old asked softly, and some fleshy little faces were full of worry.
He is the only son of Lady Emily, a bear child with a high talent for shooting - Nabo, but seeing his mother like this, even a bear child can't bear a bear.
"Doctor, what was your previous diagnosis for her?" asked Chopper not immediately, but asked an old ship doctor in a white coat and a goatee.
It was very unusual that this time the little reindeer did not immediately refute that he was not a tanuki but a signal intersection, he was holding a test tube containing a sample of Lady Emily's blood, and his furry cheeks were full of serious expressions that he had never had before.
"Alas~~~~ This is Lady Emily's old problem. ”
The old ship doctor sighed, he recalled for a moment, and continued: "Before Master Napole was born, Lady Emily had been in poor health, and she had a strange disease that would intermittently flare up, and if she was stimulated a little, she would faint. ”
"This should be a genetic disease related to blood, so Master Nabo has not been inherited. ”
"Irritating, Lady Emily, is she afraid of cats?" Chopper wondered.
"No, she was scared of the blood-red eyes, maybe she had been stimulated before. ”
Brushing his beard, the old ship doctor said with pity: "What a pity, Lady Emily and her husband are such kind people, but one died young, and the other has been suffering from this strange disease......"
"Mommy ......" Nabo held his mother's hand, tears streaming down his face.
"Is it weird? I guess she's not sick at all......"
After adding several medicinal powders to the test tube, Chopper's round deer eyes stared at the blood sample in the test tube, and the viscous blood suddenly showed a bewitching color.
"Lady Emily, she was poisoned many years ago! and some kind of chronic poison for blood!"
…………
On the other side, the Straw Hats aboard the Merry.
"Alas~~ I don't know if any of the beautiful ladies with elegant temperament have anything to do now. Sanji took a cigarette in his mouth, leaned on the table, and muttered in a huff.
Although it was only the first time they met, Lady Emily's charming style of a married woman still captured the heart of a cook. Well, to be precise, the heart of this thing has always been easily captured by beauties from all walks of life......
"Sanji, it's a little bad for you to be a nymphomaniac like this......"
Usopp touched his long nose: "People are married, even if her husband has died, but she still has an eight-year-old son." ”
"Cut, what's the matter, in my knighthood, as long as it's a woman, it's the object I want to protect!" Sanji said with a fearless face.
"Stupid. Zoro whispered a relentless whisper, and then began to apply grease to his favorite knives.
"She shouldn't have anything to worry about, Chopper's medical skills are so good. ”
Nami was a little irritated and rubbed her short orange hair into a mess, "It's us who should be worried about it now!
Miss Navigator is not stupid, on the contrary, she is very shrewd.
Combined with the rules set by Oswald, the other party was so eager for the Straw Hats to accept the compensation from their Canary Chamber of Commerce, obviously because they had taken a fancy to the combat effectiveness of Luffy and the others, and planned to use them as shields.
"Hehe, take it easy, Miss Navigator. ”
Robin was leisurely holding a cup of hot coffee, stroking Besty's fur and smiling at Nami, "Wasn't it the same a few times before? ”
Nami looked at a certain black-bellied woman with a calm face, blinked, and said, "You're really calm, Robin." ”
Robin smiled and said nothing, after a long time together, she was already familiar with the style of the Straw Hats.
"Don't worry, I'll protect you both! A nymphomaniac cook hurriedly made a statement.
"Okay, thank you Sanji. The orange-haired navigator shook his head and looked around, only to see that there were two missing men in the cabin.
"Strange, what about Luffy and Sherlock?"
…………
The camera pans again, inside the Nabo's hold.
"Meat! so much delicious meat!" Luffy's eyes sparkled as he looked at the fine beef displayed in the freezer.
(How long has it been since this thing eaten?) Also, how can that straw hat with a bounty of more than 100 million yuan be so virtuous...... )
Xiao Laiya looked at the straw hat foodie who was very excited against the glass with a strange expression, and complained frantically in his heart. He even thought that if it weren't for the glass of the freezer, the guy in the straw hat would probably be able to eat the beef raw.
"Is this all your cargo?" Sherlock stood high in the hold, looking condescendingly at the neatly arranged freezers.
The Nabo's cabin was so large that, according to a conservative estimate of one glasses, even half of the beef in this cabin would be enough for all the inhabitants of a medium-sized town for more than a month. But if you want to put it in the Straw Hats, especially with Luffy, the ultimate rice bucket, I'm afraid it won't last for three weeks.
"Yes. Xiao Laiya stood aside, nodded and said, "The beef of Stardew Island is very famous, even if our Canary Chamber of Commerce set off a month in advance, we only snapped up the amount of one cargo ship. ”
"Originally, we were going to buy some milk, but the guy with the long earrings asked for such an outrageous price that he had to exchange milk for gold!"
Speaking of this, Xiao Laiya laughed angrily: "It's really ridiculous, does that bastard want to build a ship made of gold?"
"Long earlobes?" Sherlock frowned slightly, and a figure with a four-sided drum on his back and a thunderous light flashed in his mind.
(By the way, where did the Thor of Sky Island go after being beaten by Luffy?)
Sherlock shook his head, no longer thinking about these strange people and things, and then he asked Xiao Leia a few questions about prices, and the young man with the jazz hat naturally knew everything about this benefactor who had indirectly avenged his revenge.
"That's interesting......
After getting enough information, Sherlock gently pushed his glasses, as a successful president of the Chamber of Commerce, he had roughly calculated the benefits of the Canary Chamber of Commerce this time in a few breaths.
And the conclusion he came to was that after paying half a boatload of beef to the Straw Hat Pirates and calculating the high membership fees of the penguins, unless the Canary Chamber of Commerce bought the remaining beef at a price like gold, their Chamber of Commerce would definitely lose money this time.
No treacherous businessman, no businessman, no business, maximizing profits is what a businessman should do, and Sherlock, who was a businessman himself, naturally knows this.
Lady Emily wasn't a fool, and there was no reason why she couldn't consider what Sherlock could consider, and from her previous anomalies, she deduced the following three points.
1. The Canary Chamber of Commerce should be in trouble.
2. There is still almost a day's voyage to Hannabal, indicating that trouble will soon come.
3. The Canary Chamber of Commerce's goods this time are by no means just a boatload of beef, and that [hidden goods] may be the source of trouble.
(So, what exactly is the Canary Chamber of Commerce's [Hidden Cargo]? )
(It's a shame that Lady Emily fainted, and I can't question her right now.) )
Suddenly~~~~~ a shrill horn sounded on the Naboh, and the atmosphere immediately became tense.
"What's going on? Is this going to be a banquet?" Luffy looked up in confusion and put his straw hat on.
"It's an emergency alert from the Nabo!"
Xiao Laiya almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood when he heard this, and he explained to the two with a blushing face: "When this alarm sounds, it means that we have encountered a large number of enemies!"
After saying that, Xiao Laiya hurriedly ran towards the outside of the cabin.
"Oh, it's coming so fast. Sherlock was not surprised, he gently pushed his glasses, and the transparent lenses reflected two cold bright lights.
For the sorcerer knew that the man who could answer his question had arrived.
