Chapter Sixty-Seven: Resentment, Maude

After two months, it has seen the light of day again.

Walking out of the weapons shop, or feeling free, or unburdened, Maud only felt comfortable.

Even the "smell of stinky rats" in the alley no longer seems so pungent.

"Comfortable."

Maude looked up at the sunlight that fell diagonally towards the eaves, and gently moved her legs, with a sense of lightness like a swallow.

Looking ahead, the narrow alley is a chaotic mess with garbage, and dusty wooden boxes piled up on both sides of the walls, giving off a musty smell.

"Just run a little bit."

Maud jumped on the spot a few times, and then rushed forward in vain, enveloping a gust of wind and rolling up the garbage all over the ground.

Ignoring everything else, Maud made her way through the winding alleys at a rapid pace.

When you walk past where people are, you only leave behind you with jaw-dropping faces.

The men didn't even see Maude's face clearly, and when they did, they could only see all sorts of garbage scattered in mid-air.

Night bar.

As a hidden intelligence sales point, business is as uneventful as ever.

In front of the bar, there is only one resident guest - the wolf mouse.

Inside the bar, Tatam, dressed in a bartender uniform, wipes his glass as usual.

Crunch –

Maud pushed the door open.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, Tatamu and the wolf mouse immediately looked towards the door.

Both of them are intelligence workers, but in different categories.

So, everyone who walks into the bar will be their respective potential customer.

To their surprise, it was Maude, who had been absent for two months.

"Yo, long time no see."

Maud walked into the bar and greeted the two of them.

Looking at Maude who walked into the bar, Tatam was a little surprised, and immediately smiled: "Welcome." ”

The wolf rat hid a hint of caution against Maude in time, and instead looked as if he had seen an old friend for many years.

"Usopp !! Where have you been all this time!! ”

The wolf rat jumped out of his chair, spread his arms, and walked excitedly towards Maude, as if he wanted to give him a big hug.

"I didn't go anywhere, it's complicated to explain anyway."

Maud dodged the wolf's hug, said a casual word, and walked straight to the bar.

was dodged by Maude and hugged him, but the wolf mouse was not embarrassed at all, naturally lowered his arms, and then sat down next to Maude.

"Let's hear it, it just so happens that Tatam and I are idle."

"Well, that's a long story."

Maud sighed softly as she raised her finger at Tatam, signaling for a glass of wine.

The wolf rat listened attentively and said expectantly: "It's okay, you can talk slowly." ”

It might be the first time he'd heard about the weapons shop from Maude, and he couldn't help but get a little nervous.

Maude said, "Because it's too long, let's not talk about it." ”

"Heh, hehe......"

The wolf rat tugged at his cheeks.

Maud ignored the wolf's reaction and asked Tatam for a bounty in the drawer.

Tatam stopped the drinking, opened the drawer, and took the bounty to Maud.

Maude took a stack of bounty orders and looked at it carefully.

Seeing that Maud was so serious, the wolf rat couldn't make a noise to disturb, so he could only drink silently.

On the fifth day after destroying the Sharp Cow Pirates, he received information about Maude's identity from Gion.

Not only did he know Maude's real name and origin, but he also found out the real culprit behind the attack on Bacardi's merchant ships.

After all, naval intelligence is not for nothing.

Targeted checking, the things that should be turned over, basically turned out.

What is worth surprising at that time is not that the real culprit behind the scenes is the gang Becky, but the fact that Maude is still alive.

"Bacardi. Hammond. ”

The wolf rat took a sip of wine and silently muttered his name in his heart.

And the owner of this name, is sitting next to it.

Just reach out and you can touch it.

As for the name of Usopp that is still remembered by the Mad Hat Town pirates......

Forget it, how can the wolf mouse have the effort to correct this name to its real name.

Something like kana, except for those pirates who seek fame, is used by many people here, including himself.

"What do you have to do to get Maud and the gang to bite the dog without a trace?"

From Gion, the wolf rat not only got information about Maude, but also received instructions from Gion.

The content of the order is to set Maud and the gang into an antagonistic relationship, so as to further test the attitude of the treacherous gun.

It will also be the last temptation.

In thought, the wolf mouse looked at the dazzling array of bottles in the wine cabinet, and finally settled on a white rum brand bottle.

Pregnant......

The wolf rat glanced at Maude, who was browsing the bounty order, and the wine that Tatam had just concocted.

In this case, it is not appropriate to mention the bottle of white rum, so it will be left for the time being.

At the very least, we have to wait until Maud doesn't focus on the bounty and the wine bottoms out.

Thinking of this, the wolf rat patiently waited for the opportunity.

Maud jotted down the contents of the bounty order as she drank the wine that Tatam handed over.

Ten minutes later.

Maud saw the last bounty order, and the wine in the glass was almost at the bottom.

Seeing this, the wolf mouse suddenly said, "Tatam, I suddenly want to drink Baika's brand of white rum, give me a glass." ”

"Okay."

Tatam turned around and took the white rum from the wine cabinet, then took out a new glass and poured it for the wolf and rat until it was seven points full.

The sound of sparkling liquor flowing into the glass is slightly pleasant, and the bar is filled with a mellow aroma of spirits.

Maud couldn't help but glance at the white rum in Tatam's hand.

Baika......

His expression moved slightly.

The wolf rat noticed Maude's reaction and recommended at the right time: "Usopp, this Baijia brand of white rum is a good thing, do you want to have a glass too?" ”

Maud nodded.

Seeing this, Tatam also poured a glass for Maude, and quickly put the bottle aside.

The wolf rat raised his glass and took a sip, first letting out a long sound of satisfaction, and then with emotion.

"This brand of white rum was only a special supply of the Bacardi Chamber of Commerce a few months ago, and it was usually not drinkable, but now it is different, and its shadow can be seen in almost every channel."

Maude's face did not change when he heard this.

The wolf rat continued: "Speaking of which, I have to thank Becky of the bandit for being able to drink this brand of wine here. ”

"Bunky the Gangster?"

Hearing the familiar name, Maude's eyes condensed slightly.

The wolf mouse glanced at Maude and said:

"Yes, in order to expand the channel of moonshine, the bandits not only attacked the merchant ships of the Bacardi Chamber of Commerce, but also killed no one of the Bacardi family in order to embezzle the industry afterwards."

"After that, the gangsters took over the Bacardi business and scattered a lot of liquor, and this rum was one of them."

Speaking of which, the wolf rat pretended to drink and observed Maude's reaction.

Seeing that Maud was deep in thought, he was not as angry as he expected.

The wolf rat was no surprise at all.

He'd seen Maude's hateful heart for a long time.

But there was still a little reaction in the end.

Hate it, Maude.

Then hurry to Becky for trouble.

The wolf mouse thought to himself.

As everyone knows, Maud has no so-called hatred at all.

He was contemplating the possibility of hunting Becky.

Even if you continue to use this identity, if you have the ability and certainty, it doesn't hurt to take revenge on your predecessor.

As for the mess, he didn't want to touch it.

The previous memories that were enough to affect him were also sealed in the corner by him.
