Chapter 13: A Bloody Crime Caused by a Gun
The blue mask of the hole is the basis for Maud's recognition of Kira's identity.
Thinking that Kidd is also in Mad Hattertown, it is even more certain.
"What is he here for? Buying a gun for Kidd? But that gun...... It seems to be the flintlock pistol that Jesus Bu bought yesterday. ”
Maud looked at Kira without a trace, guessing the other party's motive for coming to the store.
After a guest came to the door, Sunny put down the auction manual as soon as possible, quickly adjusted her mood, and when she looked down and looked up, she was already expressionless looking at Kira who pushed the door in.
Stores like theirs don't need to sell service and smiles at all.
If you like to buy, you can buy it, and if you don't buy it, get out.
Very user-friendly guidelines.
Kira walked into the store and saw that there was no such difficult old man as Kidd had said, and she was a little surprised but didn't pay much attention to it.
He's here to buy something, it doesn't matter who it is, as long as someone is there.
Walking quickly to the counter, Kira simply took out four stacks of Bailey and put them on the counter, and said straightforwardly: "4 million, buy Keanu with a gun." ”
"The price of Keanu's gun is 3.8 million."
"It doesn't matter, the extra 200,000 is at your disposal."
"Oh, but the gun has been bought."
“?”
A question mark slowly popped up on Kira's head.
You didn't say it directly, but talked nonsense with me here?
He suddenly understood the reason why Kidd's store was angry.
After going to sea, how could they ever encounter such a business?
But after thinking about it, Kira felt that it was a good thing to be bought, and they could go and grab it afterwards.
You can grab what you want, and you can kill those who don't like it, this is their code of conduct.
It's like the four million Baileys, who were just grabbed last night.
With the thought in mind, Kira asked, "Who bought the gun?" ”
Sunny had been here for years, and she couldn't see Kira's motive for asking who the buyer was.
It's nothing more than going to the buyer to carry out a robbery on the spot that is justified for pirates.
If it's a normal day, Sunny won't reveal the customer's information anyway, which is the bottom line as a seller.
But this time is different, as the buyer is Jesus Cloth from the Red-Haired Pirates.
She looked at Kira and said quietly, "The gun was sold yesterday afternoon, and the person who bought the gun is called Jesus Cloth." ”
When Kira heard this, as if it would be a waste of life to say one more word, she picked up Bailey and turned around and left.
He vaguely felt as if he had heard the name Jesus, but he didn't think much of it.
The gun was bought yesterday afternoon, so it's highly likely that the guy named Jesus Bu is still in Mad Hatter.
Walking out of the weapons shop, Kira made a beeline for the tavern where Kidd was.
The next thing is self-evident, which is to find a buyer, then snatch the gun, and then there is no need to stay here any longer.
Maud walked to the door, leaned out half of her body, and looked at Kira's distant back with a look of pity.
But when I thought of Shanks that they had gone away, I couldn't help but feel regretful.
Otherwise, he really wanted to see the scene where Kidd's gang went to grab Keanu's gun.
Closing the door of the store, Maude turned to look at the counter, and wanted to say a good or bad thing to Sunny about, only to see that Sunny was burying her head in the auction brochure again.
With her habit of perusing a single newspaper for three or four hours, she wondered how much time this little auction brochure could take up with her.
Maud was still a little interested in the auction, and quietly stood behind Sunny and peeked at the list of lots in the booklet.
"A famous knife that is one of the 50 workers of good property? When I learned how to use a knife, I don't know when. ”
"Huh? There are even fish-man slaves, with a starting price of 1 million Bailey...... It's a pity that I don't have the money, otherwise I can buy it and try to see if the Hunter's Note can work against the Fish-People. ”
"Weasel? The instructions are...... An unprecedented variant of skunk that can emit a fragrance? What the hell can even be auctioned off like this? It is also classified as a rare beast ......"
"Well, over and over again, most of the auction items are mainly weapons, even if you forget the knife, you even have a flintlock pistol."
"Come to think of it, the potential buyers are basically pirates, and the demand for weapons will naturally be a little higher, unlike the auction houses of the nobles, which are basically dominated by slaves."
"However, after looking at it all, only the Devil Fruit and the Famous Sword of Liangshi can be called blockbuster auction items."
"The latter is certainly not as valuable as a Devil Fruit, but it is also something that is hard to find."
Maude browsed the same list of lots with different starting prices behind Sunny and it was an eye-opener.
Compared to the auction in the Hunter World, where all kinds of antiques are the dominant goods, the auction in the Pirate World is more interesting.
Those miscellaneous goods can easily arouse Maude's desire to buy.
After almost seeing the auction items, Maude quietly exited the counter and continued to exercise in the corner of the store.
This form of training cannot increase the strength in a short period of time, but it is better than a long stream, and in terms of the current situation, it is better than nothing.
"It's all over, and Thor hasn't come back yet."
Maud paid attention to the time.
I don't know if it's because Thor was angry with Shanks yesterday, so he will become extraordinarily young today.
After all, you have to put out the fire.
Inexplicably, Maud seems to have found the reason why Thor hasn't come back yet.
...........
In the noisy tavern, Kidd waited for Kira, who returned empty-handed.
"Didn't sell you either?"
Kidd's eyes were cold, and the rising anger turned into a desire for destruction that could strike at any moment.
For this gun, he was already exhausted.
Kira shook her head and said, "It's not that it's not for sale, but it's bought by a man named Jesusbu." ”
"Oh? When did you buy it? ”
Kidd suddenly came to his senses, and a cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
He can't afford to mess with the unpredictable Thor, could it be that he can't afford to mess with the man who bought the gun?
"Yesterday afternoon."
"Find him."
Kidd suddenly got up and walked towards the gate.
Kira dropped the money and followed closely behind Kidd.
Mad Hatter doesn't strictly prohibit cannibalism among peers, but there is a rule that must be followed.
That is, it must not harm the legitimate interests of the merchant.
It's basically - you spend in the store, then you pay as much as you have to pay.
Want to pay off?
Then wait for death.
The two walked out of the tavern one after the other and into the street.
The so-called snake has a snake path, and rats have a rat path.
If you want to find out the whereabouts of Jesus cloth as quickly as possible in the town, you can only take the road and go to the dealers who specialize in these businesses.
Walking briskly down the street, Kira suddenly said, "I always feel ...... The name Jesuscloth sounds familiar. ”
"Then you can think about it."
Kidd glanced at him.
But hearing Kira say this, Kidd felt the same way.
Jesus ......
The two of them walked and stopped suddenly.
Although Kidd still had an awe-inspiring expression of murderous intent on his face, the momentum that emanated through his body obviously took a sharp turn.
As for Kira, because she was wearing a mask, she couldn't see why.
After a long time, Kira said blankly, "What should I do next?" ”
"Leave!"
Kidd gritted his teeth.
He loves to collect weapons, but some of them don't have to be.
But Keanu had a different gun, one of the short knives and a short gun he intended to equip on his body.
That is, it is a collection that is used for battle, not for the purpose of satisfying the desire to collect.
This is also the fundamental reason why he is so persistent, even at the expense of staying in Mad Hatter for so long.
But now that Keanu can't get a gun, there's no need to stay.
At this moment, Kidd was confronted by a male bowed head who was holding an auction book and walking away.
When it looks like it's about to collide......
But Kidd was unmoved, and let the man run into him.
Boom......
It was obvious that the man of the low-headed clan took the initiative to bump into him, but he took two steps back, and the auction book fell to the ground.
"Dog thing, no eyes......"
The man of the Bowed Clan rushed up angrily.
As a result, before he finished speaking, he was thrown out by Kidd's punch full of venting nature, and immediately fell more than ten meters away, life and death unknown.
"Garbage that is no different from scum dares to go to sea?"
Kidd spat at the ground.
Suddenly, I noticed the brochure of the auction.
