Chapter Twenty-Five: Sharp Mouth

At a very young age, Sherlock felt that his father was the most amazing man in the world. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

He established chambers of commerce in the local area and worked together to promote local products to the kingdom's capital, which was highly regarded by local merchants.

But when Sherlock reached his youth, perhaps it was the instinct of male genes to desire more social resources, which stirred up the signs of rebellion against the same sex who was dominant in the family, or simply after gradually coming into contact with more people and things, he found that the incomparably great and excellent man when he was a child also groveled, which made him feel angry and ashamed, and gradually entered the rebellious period, which is the middle two that William often said on the Internet in his previous life, if he is eighteen years old, then he can barely be called the older middle two。

When Sherlock really broke away from his father's wings and plunged headlong into the social jungle full of thorns, and was stabbed with blood, he may gradually change back to his father's view of his father when he was a child, but unfortunately Sherlock's privileged environment since he was a child made him not wait for this day, and his mind was full of thoughts of doing it against his father.

His father, Thassarian, was cautious and conservative, and could be said to have taken the cautious and amiable nature of a merchant to the extreme, while Sherlock himself was full of bold ideas, believing that the pursuit of profit was the duty and nature of a businessman, and believed in the idea that "how bold a man is, how fruitful is the land".

After talking to Tony on the phone, and learning some information about William himself and his proposal, Sherlock became interested, and found out the news newspapers about the Kingdom of Navia and Prohibition that night to watch an all-nighter, and the next morning he called Tony with this dark circle, agreeing to make an appointment to meet William.

He didn't tell anyone about the smuggling business, and it wasn't until five days later that his family arranged a boat to take him to Momiji Village.

Although he is the only son of the president of the Chamber of Commerce, Sherlock is not too pampered, he is complacent as a businessman, pursues efficiency, does not like to engage in unnecessary pomp, only brings a male secretary with him to help him carry his luggage, and the boat arranged by the family is only a small boat that will pass the border.

Judging from these arrangements, his choice could not be said to be wrong, but when he boarded the ship and approached the cabin, he couldn't help but smile bitterly.

A few strong men with weathered faces and fierce faces were really staring at him from the cabin.

Bang!

Sherlock's body stiffened, and the secretary, who was a step behind him, had just approached the cabin when a man pulled out a gun and shot him in the forehead.

The secretary had a terrible hole in his brows, and his face was full of astonishment, and his face was full of astonishment, and his brain and blood were gushing wildly, and Sherlock suddenly felt a pungent smell in the cramped space.

When Sherlock got on the ship, he felt that something was not right, there were not many people on the deck except for the powerful sailors, and it was common sense that the overseers sent by the trading company should be on the deck at this time to shout to their men to speed up their work.

Now Sherlock knew that the sailors were not law-abiding civilians begging for a living on the docks, but a group of pirates, and that the merchant ship's operator or the overseer he had sent might have died like his hapless secretary, or had been locked up by the pirates, and of course the worst-case scenario, the ship's original operator and crew were in the same league as the pirates.

Sherlock's mind was racing, and he suddenly felt a shock in his body, which made his heart sink.

The ship is offshore.

"Are the people on the ship still alive?" said Sherlock, knowing that he had to speak, not to end up like his own secretary, and in a very short time he figured out that there must be a reason why the other party did not kill him immediately.

The cabin was slightly dark, and Sherlock could see the faces of the three men standing or sitting across from him in the faint light.

Two had explosive heads, one with a large mouth and the other with a potholed face, and the one in the middle appeared to be the leader, with slightly dark skin and dreadlocks.

The leading dreadlocked man laughed out loud when he heard Sherlock's words, "Are you still in the mood to care about other people?"

"Since the gentlemen didn't kill me, I believe there must be a reason for my own, so I shouldn't be in any danger to my life for the time being. Sherlock smiled reluctantly: The people on the ship are all members of my family's Chamber of Commerce, and they are part of the Chamber of Commerce, and their safety is in danger to me, as the son of the president of the Chamber of Commerce, I must ask. ”

The pothole-ridden man took out a rope, walked behind Sherlock and tied his hands behind his back, and sneered: "It's still a rich man, but it's a pity that you want to be bad, if you go a little further offshore, you will die, and those people on the ship will definitely die later than you." ”

"Won't you kill me right away?" Sherlock pale, but still tried to be as calm as possible, "Are the people on the ship okay?"

"In that case, gentlemen, can we discuss how to redeem the members of my family's Chamber of Commerce with you with money?"

Several of the bandits looked incredulous, and then they all laughed in unison, as if they thought it was ridiculous for a prisoner to discuss the ransom with them.

"500,000 Baileys for those with positions, 200,000 for others, and 1 million Baileys for captains!"

A few people stopped laughing, Bailey was the unified currency of the world, roughly equivalent to the yen in William's previous life.

From this point of view, Sherlock doesn't seem to give a lot of money, but the number of hostages in the hands of these bandits is quite a lot.

The important thing is that it was a windfall, and the unexpected made people feel unbelievable.

And for Sherlock, the most important thing is that from the expressions of several people, it can be confirmed that the people on the ship are not in the same group as this group of pirates.

Sherlock looked at a few of the bandits who were thinking about his suggestion, and lowered his eyelids slightly: "Please forgive me for taking the liberty of asking a question, why did a few of them kill me? I don't have any impression of them, and I like to make friends with some heroes on weekdays, if I have seen a few, I will definitely have an impression, and it is even more unlikely to offend you." ”

The man in the lead hesitated, but Sherlock's ass was still in place, so he said, "Someone hired us to kill you." ”

"The scene was then disguised as a sign of a pirate hijacking a ship. The pirates behind Sherlock said casually, they didn't seem to care how much he knew about the dying, but instead enjoyed the cat-and-mouse fun.

"Understood," Sherlock nodded, "can I ask one last question from the dying man? How much did the people who hired you pay you?"

Several men exchanged glances with each other for a moment, and then the man who was still in the lead said, "Ten million Bailey." ”

Sherlock pretended to sneer as the pirates behind him had already bound his hands, and when they heard the laughter, they viciously shoved him on the shoulder.

Sherlock had never practiced any self-defense skills, and his body was a little thin, and he was pushed to a stumbling side, half-kneeling on the ground.

He was annoyed in his heart, but he didn't show the slightest on his face, he just raised his head and pretended to be sorry: "I'm really sorry, I just think that this price not only insults me, but also insults you." ”

"What do you mean?"

"My only son as the president of the Shining Gold Chamber of Commerce is only worth 10 million Bailey, which is really funny, not to mention that the person who hired you to make you fake the scene of the pirate robbery of the ship, I'm afraid that I am not the only one who needs to be killed, and it will cost more hands and feet. Sherlock grew calmer.

"Flash Gold Chamber of Commerce?" The dreadlocked man in the lead was a little puzzled, obviously he hadn't heard of this place Chamber of Commerce, but the big-mouthed man next to him looked moved when he heard this name, and he went over to explain it before he showed a sudden look: "No wonder." ”

"Sir, have you heard of our Chamber of Commerce?" Sherlock smiled at the big-mouthed man, "It seems that the employer who hired a few of them was a miser, and he didn't tell you who I was, probably because he was afraid that you would increase the price." ”

He didn't wait for the other party to continue talking, as if he suddenly thought of this attention, and said slowly: "In this way, I will pay three times the price, 30 million Bailey, I don't need a few condescending to help me kill anyone, and then do anything, as long as I am let go, these 30 million Bailey, together with the ransom of the members of my family's Chamber of Commerce, will be yours!"

(The Shining Gold Chamber of Commerce, as well as Sherlock, are all excerpted from the old version of the character building post, with the right role and power, so they were taken out and used, and everyone should be able to see from the current description, powerless, but bold businessmen, so that they dare to collude with William for smuggling.) All the characters in the character building, no matter how many BTs were originally set, will only be ordinary people in my hands, at most they have different personalities, and then all these various people are united by William and work towards a goal. ）
