Exclamations were heard on all sides, and there was a lot of noise. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Jacob sat up with his aching head clutched, tossed aside the inexplicable extra pistol in his hand, and looked up at the four men who were looking at him with a look of horror.
"Profit...... Niche...... Chloe, what's wrong?" Jacob couldn't help but ask when he saw that the four of them didn't look scared, and then before he could answer, he felt that his pants were a little wet, and when he looked down, there was actually blood flowing all over the floor, "This ......" His gaze slowly moved again, and finally saw Ivan lying in a pool of blood.
"Jacob, you killed him......" Nicky said as he looked at the musket next to Jacob.
"I ...... I'm not remembered......" Jacob only felt like he couldn't breathe, like something was pressing against his chest.
Chloe lowered his head and said in a heavy tone: "Ivan came over to beat and scold Jacob, Jacob didn't care about anything because he was drunk, picked up the musket on the table and pointed it at Ivan...... I didn't stop him......"
"What should I do now...... If anyone knew about it, we would die. Nicki looked around and was relieved to see that there was no one else in the tavern.
Ah Jin spoke: "Dispose of Ivan's body first, and think about it later." ā
Saying that, Ah Jin and Tyton dragged Ivan's body aside, and Ah Jin said, "Get him into the barrel over there." ā
"No, it's more suspicious. Chloe stopped Ah Jin, "Don't worry. ā
Jacob still stared at him in disbelief, and Niche leaned directly against the wall. Ivan is a veteran member of this pirate group, and he has a very good relationship with the chairman and others, and now that he is dead, it is very likely that their little minions will not be able to save their lives.
"It was said that he was killed by a group of pirates who had escaped from the Great Voyage. "This kind of thing has happened here, hasn't it?"
"Happening is happening...... But there are so many people outside of us, and we can't stand up to investigation when we say this reason. Compared to Jacob, who was already confused, Niche was still sober-headed, and he didn't quite agree with Chloe's suggestion.
Of course, Chloe knew that if he said so, he would definitely not stand up to investigation, and it might only take a few days for them to be found out. But Chloe is not worried at all, because first of all, they can't stay long, calculate the time Rhodes they start today, then they will leave here in five days, and the time is completely in time, and secondly, Chloe is confident that he will control this bounty hunter guild in a few days, maybe because he is in a hurry, the control is not very strong, but originally he didn't plan to run it all the time, he only needs these few days to give full play to the resources of the guild, even if the guild is completely abolished later, it's nothing.
"But we can't do anything else!" roared Chloe, "could it be that Ivan was hidden in the tavern, and we wouldn't even have room for explanation!"
"Jacob, it's all your fault! we're all going to be done now!" If they hadn't skipped their jobs and come here to drink before, even if Jacob had killed Ivan, it would still have nothing to do with the others, but now once Jacob confesses, they will inevitably shake out this bit of, and it will not end well.
Jacob was silent, after all, this man did kill himself, and the wine was drunk by himself, so there was no reason to talk back.
"What's the use of arguing about all this now, think about how to solve the problem first!" Chloe yelled again, startling Niche a lot.
"That'...... So what to do?" Niche also panicked.
"Just do what I said. Chloe has inadvertently become the backbone of these people.
Niche muttered, "But ......"
"Okay! I'll take care of what's going on! We're grasshoppers on a rope, we're brothers, I'll carry something!" Chloe grabbed the bottle and smashed it on the ground.
"Chloe...... "Jacob didn't know what to say.
At this time, it was the dead of night, and although there were still some people outside, it was really not easy to be found doing something now.
Ah Jin dragged Ivan out to create a fake scene, while Chloe and the others began to clean up the tavern.
With everything in order, Chloe picked up Ivan on his back, and the five of them rushed back to the Bounty Hunters' Guild.
Most of the forces in the docks mainly make money by plundering merchant ships and eating black, and medium-sized forces like their Bounty Hunter Guild tend to go to remote waters to do this, because these areas in the offshore waters are basically divided up by the three major forces, the most direct example is Brocky, the bounty of 20 million is not high or low here, but they can loot in the coastal waters, even if they are people under the command of the Garneau family, one of the three major forces.
It is true that it is possible to make a lot of money by leaning on the docks to accept some pirates who have escaped, but it is always difficult to keep their hundreds of people running, so most of the time President Gabriel and Vice President Matthew will loot at sea.
Today, the guild is still in charge......
After Chloe returned from a deliberate commotion, Thoss and most of the members who remained in the guild woke up.
Before Soth could get dressed, Chloe began banging heavily on his door.
"Damn it, be quiet!" Soth strode over and opened the door, ready to scold the unruly man, but as soon as his mouth opened, he couldn't say anything.
"Lord Soth! Ivanta...... He ......," Chloe said with a handful of snot and tears, "we have been attacked by pirates, and Ivan is dead!"
Soth didn't care about complaining about Chloe's recklessness, and took a step back with his nose covered: "You get this guy away first." ā
Akin picked Ivan from Chloe and placed him in the hall.
"Tell me what's going on!" Soth stepped aside and washed his face with cold water to sober himself up.
"When we went to the dock, Ivan said that he was tired, and he wanted to go back to rest for a while, and come back in the evening, and then the dock was guarded by us, and when Ivan came in the evening, there happened to be a small broken ship coming towards us, and we didn't have much defense at that time, thinking that it was another pirate who had retreated from the great voyage, but I didn't expect that when Ivan just passed, he was shot in the head by a person who suddenly appeared on the ship! Chloe was nervous and sometimes crying, and Soth believed Chloe again.
Soth scratched his head and said, "It's really troublesome, this kind of thing hasn't happened for a long time...... Ivan is still an old member, and this matter must be explained. ā
"I'm coming!" Chloe snapped, "and in five days, I'm going to find those guys and kill them!"
"Ah...... This is still secondary. Soth frowned and sat on the bed, "Who will take care of this without Ivan?"
"I'll take care of it!"
