Chapter VII Shelf

Early the next morning.

Maud opened her eyes, her face full of tiredness.

Combing through the intelligence last night, it was early in the morning without paying attention.

I fell asleep tired, only to wake up in less than two hours.

Fortunately, I completed a hunt yesterday, otherwise this body would not have withstood the toss.

When she woke up, Maud couldn't sleep anymore.

Lift the quilt and get out of bed.

I don't know what job Thor will arrange for him.

Anyway, in order to settle down as soon as possible, he has already assumed the identity of a coolie on his own.

Rubbing her cheeks, Maude opened the door and walked out.

The pins in the hallway can be heard, making the slight creaking sound of stepping on the wooden floor unusually noticeable.

At the end of the corridor is a nailed wooden window on the wall, and the early morning sunlight shines through the gap in the window, forming a column of light that falls to the ground.

Maud glanced at the rest of the closed doors, didn't linger long, and walked down the stairs.

He followed the stairs to the first floor.

The hallway on the right leads to the storefront, and on the left is the living room kitchen.

Maybe it's still early, and the door doesn't open.

However, Sunny was awake and was sitting at the table eating breakfast.

Maud went to wash up briefly, and then went to the dining room, which was connected to the kitchen.

He was starving.

I could endure it yesterday, but I can't do it today, and I don't know if it's because of the reaction caused by the body's recovery.

Sunny looked up at Maude, who looked hungry, pushed a glass of milk to her seat, and motioned for Maude to sit down and eat.

Maud was not polite, pulled out a chair and sat down.

Yu Guang noticed a set of crusts in front of the other empty seat, presumably left over from Thor having eaten.

Maud raised the wooden cup and took a sip of milk, frowning slightly, only to feel that her mouth was full of the unique smell of raw milk.

endured the discomfort and drank all the raw milk, picked up another piece of meat chop, and took a few bites, with a sense of illusion of coming back to life.

I have to say that this store looks shabby, but the food is really good.

But what makes Maud most comfortable is the casualness shown by Thor and Sonny, which is quite different from the expected pirates.

And, in a sense, Saul was his savior.

After swallowing a few cuts in a row, Maude slowed down.

He glanced at Sunny who had already eaten about the same, and thought about the precautions written on the piece of paper yesterday that he couldn't go out during the day and night, and his mind moved.

"Sanny, Mad Hatter...... What kind of place is it? ”

"Won't you just go out and have a look?"

“???”

Maud had a question mark on his head.

The contents of the paper given yesterday are still vivid.

Looking at Sunny's expressionless face, Maude wondered if this guy was taking revenge on him for perfunctory to her yesterday.

Whoop -

Just as he was thinking about it, he heard the sound of Sunny pushing her chair away.

"Clean these up after eating, and then clean up the store and give you half an hour."

Leaving this sentence behind, Sunny went to the second floor without looking back.

Maud shook her head, swept up the rest of her breakfast, and began to clean up.

If he was only in charge of cleaning, then his work as a coolie would be too easy.

After tidying up the table, Maud arrived at the store with cleaning tools.

When it comes to cleaning the shelves, Maud pays extra attention.

After all, one of the precautions given by Sunny is not to touch these weapons for sale.

You can't touch it, but you can still see it.

There are three shelves in the store, the first shelf is stocked with various styles of swords, the second shelf is stocked with flintlock pistols of different lengths, and the third shelf is a mix of swords and firearms.

If I'm not mistaken, Watt's blood-stained knife was wiped clean by Thor yesterday and placed on the third shelf.

Looking at the third shelf, which was obviously overwhelmingly superior in numbers, Maude recalled Saul's familiar actions yesterday, and couldn't help but fall into deep thought: "......"

Shelves dedicated to second-hand goods?

And the origin of the goods does not need to be said.

However, strictly speaking, it doesn't matter whether a cold weapon like a sword is second-hand or not, as long as there is no physical damage.

Eyes moved away from the third shelf to the shelves with a dozen guns.

There are not many of them, but the shelves seem empty.

Maud looked at the guns.

Whether it is the earth or the hunter world, the presence of guns has always been stronger than cold weapons.

Compared to cold weapons such as swords, Maud knows more about guns.

When he was in the hunter world, even though his cultivation had reached the point where he no longer needed to rely on guns, he still carried a pistol with him.

In terms of marksmanship, I don't dare to say that it is very slippery, but it can ensure basic shooting accuracy.

It's just that he also knows that in the One Piece world, the presence of cold weapons such as swords is much stronger than that of firearms.

Among those ruthless people who have cultivated to a certain extent, most of them also use cold weapons, not firearms.

But it's not that the upper limit of firearms is not enough, it's just that there are only a handful of people who can give full play to the [range advantage] of firearms to the extreme.

"Is Keanu's side gun in there?"

Maud suddenly thought of Kidd, who had come to the store yesterday.

That so-called Keanu with a gun can make Kidd so persistent, and the quality must not be low.

Looking closely at the few guns on the shelves, Maude, who was only familiar with modern firearms, really couldn't see why.

Based on his current knowledge of flintlock pistols, he couldn't tell the quality of these dozen flintlock pistols, let alone find Keanu's matching gun.

"Gotta get it up as soon as possible."

Although the muskets were not as powerful as modern firearms, this did not prevent Maud from valuing them.

Glancing at the flintlock pistols on the shelves rather greedily, Maude's mind fluctuated.

In the early days of hunting, what was most lacking was simple and crude lethal tools such as firearms.

Resisting the urge to take a second-hand flintlock pistol from the third shelf, Modmali wiped the shelves.

When he was done, he threw the cleaning tools back into the storage room, exactly half an hour after the time passed.

Then, Sunny went downstairs on time and came to the store.

Maud sensed keenly that Sunny seemed to be in a good mood.

He didn't know that Sunny was in a good mood because she thought she wouldn't have to do all that dirty work for a while.

If Maud doesn't die young, the time will be extended indefinitely.

Under Maude's gaze, Sunny pulled a ruler out of the counter, then walked over to the shelves and measured the merchandise on it.

That action made Maude's scalp tingle.

Damn, play so big?

He thought that Sunny was measuring the goods on the shelves with a ruler to check if he had touched them at will.

But after looking down, he realized that this was not the case.

Silently watching Sunny fine-tune the items one by one after the comparison, Maude only felt that her scalp was more numb.

Not daring to disturb Sonny, Maud waited patiently on the sidelines.

An hour later, Sunny was finally done, and the day finally began.

"Where's Thor?"

Seeing that Thor had not come down for a long time, Maud was a little strange.

Sunny who was sitting at the counter glanced at him and said expressionlessly, "Sol went to Flower Street for morning exercises, and he usually comes back before lunch." ”

"Oh, it's time for morning exercise."

Maude suddenly realized, no wonder Thor was so old that he could still maintain his strength that was not weak.

Well?

Wait a minute.

Something seems wrong?
