295. The undercurrent of the Kuroshio

Leaving London, twice when it was dark and I saw the buildings of Bristol. After a brief supply, we left the British confines and sailed into the Atlantic.

Since ancient times, people have been in awe of the ocean, so there are many bizarre and treacherous legends. For example, the silent urban Atlantis, such as the ghost ship, such as the sirens, are all born from people's unknown and fear of nature.

For me, the basic conditions of the 21st century, the only things that make me most afraid of the sea are the lack of fresh water, infectious diseases and storms, and nothing else is worth causing too many emotional swings.

For example, even though I was vaccinated, there was still a faint discordant voice in the ranks of those death row inmates, as if some conspiracy was brewing. It's something that needs to be addressed, but it's not worth fearing, is it?

Since I set sail, I have given the Nine Ghosts a task - keep an eye on these people! A guy who can be sentenced to death, if you want to say that he is innocent, it is absolutely impossible. Even if sin does not lead to death, it is definitely not considered good. It is extremely difficult, or rather, almost impossible to expect them to be honest in their duties.

Judging from the news that has been coming back one after another in the past few days, these death row prisoners are working quite seriously at their posts - mainly sailing, paddling and cleaning the deck, but according to the Nine Demons Masataka, from the perspective of a senior ninja, there must be a lot of trouble between these people.

For example, there are dozens of eyebrows between these people that he found in the shadows, and there seems to be a network in their team, which cannot be seen or touched, but it must exist!

On a few occasions, a few guys who seemed to have some brains came out of the barn, like water that melted into the sea, and quickly disappeared into the crowd. After some time, the men returned from the crowd, seemed to have gathered some information, and returned to the barn again to gather it.

This feeling is like neurons, they go from the nerve endings to the stimulus response and then bring the information back to the central nervous system, which makes me more and more sure that if there is a problem with these people, there must be a ghost among them!

Of course, there are some things that still have to be done cautiously, so I asked the Nine Ghosts to quietly disrupt these people, transfer people from different posts and different ships, and make some flower arrangements for personnel, but this situation still exists.

This route to the new continent will have to sail for a month at the earliest, so we have time to solve this problem.

I bit an orange and gently spit it out, looking at the situation provided by the Nine Ghosts Masataka in my left hand. Well, sure enough, the main thing that went wrong was on the flagship.

It looks like it's time to execute Ξ² plan!

There was a guy on the ship's death row named Scharnhorst, a former German pirate who had now been expelled from his citizenship and became a stateless man.

His skin is more like a yellow race, and his body and face shape also meet the requirements of our Ξ² plan, and I paid attention to him the first time I saw him, because he is too similar to Ma Wei!

It's like almost to the point where you can make it real just by changing your hairstyle!

Taizu said that without investigation, there is no right to speak, so we must investigate! And this heavy responsibility falls on Ma Wei!

……

On the seventh day, I observed Scharnhorst for seven whole days! This is a cautious fellow, and ever since Captain Kailan asked me to spy on him, I've engraved this guy's every move in my heart.

He speaks English and also speaks German, but generally English. It seems that he is of mixed English and German descent. The accent in English is more like that of Liverpool, and the German doesn't really sound recognizable, but it should be not far from Lille.

I don't usually speak fast, but I speed up when I'm in a hurry, and I like to speak German when I'm emotional.

He got up at six o'clock every morning, and the first thing he did when he got up was to find the tobacco at his bedside, put it in his mouth and chew it for about five minutes, and then followed the crowd to the deck to be lectured.

He walks slowly, but big. It seems that there is an injury to the left foot, and the step is not very real. When going up the steps, you will subconsciously bow your head and use your right foot to go up the steps.

The index finger of the right hand should have been fractured, and the posture is very strange when holding the knife and fork, and the knife is held with the thumb and middle finger of the right hand when cutting, and it seems that there is no force, so the meal is always slower than others.

When looking at others, he likes to hold his chin slightly high in most cases, and only bows his head slightly when he sees a few people, such as an officer, or someone else who is stronger than him.

This shows that he is very clear-headed, except that when he meets a silver-haired young man in his twenties, he also adopts this respectful gesture, and is somewhat timid to call him "adult", rather than by his name as if he were to others.

This "adult" is very kind and always has a smile that is not there. I always felt that this person was wrong, and I didn't know why. The next step is to make him your first goal.

Scharnhorst is mainly responsible for deck cleaning, and his work is not too fast, nor too slow. Such a person will not attract too much attention, and he will not be punished. It was clear that he was hiding himself.

Moreover, this person seems to be very afraid of the cold, and always wears an extra waistcoat over his coarse cloth clothes. When walking, I also like to subconsciously pull the collar and put my hand down.

When I am nervous, my injured left leg will shake subconsciously, I like to rub my right index finger and thumb gently, and I like to scratch my head with my left hand when answering.

The mantra is: "Oh! Excuse me! But when he himself is interrupted, he pouts and rolls his eyes with disdain.

I have the basics, and I am using the time other than secretly observing, eating, and resting to imitate his every move.

Over the course of a few days, I thought I had gotten acquainted with the man β€” including his circle of friends, what was going on with everyone, who owed him how much tobacco, who owed him how much beef β€” and it was generally gambling debt, and I basically knew what it was.

On the eighth day, I reported to the captain that I was ready! Ready to do it! The captain immediately agreed, let me implement it immediately, and let the nine ghosts take people and take care of my safety throughout the whole process.

Let's go! Early in the morning of Article 9, Scharnhorst chewed tobacco as usual, received the usual reprimand, went to work as usual, and before the work break, in order to avoid the peak of personnel, he asked Mark for leave to go to the toilet with the leading officer.

Mark doesn't have a crush on this guy, but it's not bad either, he's a mediocre guy anyway. However, I heard that this guy seems to have a lot to do with the leaders of those craftsmen, so he is usually not too harsh when he can do it.

It's just that today, this guy went to the toilet for fifteen minutes! I was about to let someone go to the toilet to have a look, but I saw him coming out of the toilet with his pants and rubbing his stomach, and he walked towards him a little nervously!

"Are you lazy? Shane! Mark frowned and asked, "While you're resting for a while, the others have already done half of their work, you need to give me an explanation!"

"Scharnhorst" muttered, "Team...... Captain, I'm so sick of stomach that I can't stand up! I'm not lazy! ”

Mark snorted and said, "I see you're in good spirits!" Don't play tricks, boy, or I'll give you a good look! ”

Scharnhorst seemed a little frightened, but quickly regained his composure. He stepped forward and approached Mark, as if he had slipped something into Mark's hand.

Mark's eyes lit up, and he immediately became pleasant, patted Scharnhorst on the shoulder, and did not pursue the evasion of work.

The unlucky child dragged back to his workstation, and Frederick, who had been watching the excitement next to him, immediately leaned over and asked, "Hey! Man, what good stuff did you give that guy? He let him let you go! ”

Scharnhorst gritted his teeth and coughed twice before he whispered in a hoarse voice, "Damn it! That's the bacon I got from the kitchen! It's all gone! ”

Frederick laughed and said, "You still have bacon with you on the toilet?"

Scharnhorst glanced at him and said, "If you don't wrap it in oiled paper, will you stay in the cabin and wait for you, the mole, to find it and destroy it?"

Frederick, nicknamed "The Mole", did have a habit of stealing, and he was convicted of stealing for stealing – he stole a sheep from the English Chancellor's house – and unfortunately he fell in love with a girl in the sheepfold playing with a lamb who happened to be no one else......

The sixteen-year-old girl, the granddaughter of the Chief Justice, went to her grandfather's villa to experience life when she was not in school, and as a result, she suffered this great disaster!

Before Frederick's pants could be lifted, he was grabbed by the guards who screamed from the little girl. Although it was not the first time for the little girl, and Frederick was too excited for more than half a minute, he was still sentenced to death by the little girl's angry grandfather!

Originally, it was going to be executed in three days, but who knew that an earl fell from the sky, and five hundred death row prisoners would go to the new continent together! Although I know that even if I go to the New World, I can't get rid of the role of cannon fodder, but it's better to die than to live, and I can live one day at a time!

He signed up, and his skill was "lockpicking", and objectively speaking, Frederick's lockpicking skills were indeed good, so much so that the cells where he was previously held were replaced with special doors - there was no keyhole inside, only a handle......

So after hearing that Scharnhorst was not groundless, Frederick just smiled, but he couldn't argue, and after a while, he felt embarrassed, so he could only keep his head down and work.

Scharnhorstβ€”No, it should be Mavey, and seeing that Frederick was no longer asking, he quietly sighed.

In the toilet, he completed the identity adjustment package in five minutes, and then walked out and started this new journey. As for where the real Scharnhorst went, he did not know. Then you should ask the nine ghosts Masataka, or the shark that followed the fleet for hundreds of nautical miles......

Just when Ma Wei was slightly distracted, Hanks on the other side whispered: "Hey! Shane, my lord said that all the 'waiters' would meet him after lunch, and sometimes it would be arranged. ”

Ma Wei glanced at him and asked dissatisfiedly, "Who told you to tell me?" Because he knew that these people were generally a one-line connection, not the hands of a third person, Hanks told him that this matter was inappropriate.

Hanks said unhappily, "You think I'm willing to be caught in the middle?" If you hadn't been able to come back to the toilet, how would the messenger have found me? ”

Ma Wei glanced at him and said lightly, "Is that so?" Okay, I'll confirm! ”

Hanks' face suddenly changed when he heard this, and he quickly explained: "No! Why bother, Shane. It's just that Bristark came to see you just now, and I guess that's what happened. ”

Ma Wei glanced at Hanks coldly, and said disdainfully: "Take care of your own mouth, or ......"

Hanks' face immediately turned pale, he knew the rules.

Mavi straightened his clothes and didn't speak until fifteen minutes later, when another person came over to talk to him and formally informed him of what Hanks had just said, and he nodded in agreement.

Are you going to get started? Ma Wei secretly said in his heart, whether he succeeds or not, in fact, he has already succeeded - as long as he knows the identity of the leader on the other side, and then understands their plan, there will be no more problems.

After all, the power of life and death is in our own hands, and all we need to think about is how to reduce losses.

Thinking of this, Ma Wei didn't think about anything else, ate lunch leisurely, washed the dishes, and went straight to the place designated by the "adult".
