Adam leaned his back against the wall and gently returned the steel sword to its sheath, his chest heaving, and he let out a sigh.

He waved at the corner of the stairs: Laurie was coming from there with someone, and after receiving a clear hint, he hid again and sealed off the second floor.

Click, the door opened.

"I heard you're busy, why are you here?"

"This is my precinct."

Leslie sat on her legs, pale mist pouring out of her seductive lips as she answered.

【Betel Grass Female Cigarette (Special, Lit)】

"I see, that's how the lemon smell came from."

"You're always rude, Duchen, with the same keen sense of smell as those perverts, and you seem to be honest with everyone, but in fact you are hypocritical......"

Leslie's word order is out of order.

As she spoke, she straightened her long legs in annoyance and kicked the empty bottles away, then touching more empty bottles with a wind-chime-like crunch.

Adam ignored it.

Those accusations are certainly not about themselves, at least not entirely.

He twitched the tip of his nose to tell that it was a spicy rum rather than a delicately scented liquor that was difficult to catch, and that he was still draped in a luxurious coat on his chair and that the soles of his feet were stepping on scattered pearls.

Most likely, Leslie had a hangover until noon today.

"I didn't go to the banquet, and I was slightly drunk."

Having said that, Adam still closed the door to avoid outside prying eyes - don't get me wrong, being alone with this woman is quite dangerous.

If you let the guys down there see the captain's fatigue, you'll lose a little bit of faith.

As a strong leader, you can't expose your inner boredom to people other than your confidants.

"Oh, so considerate, no wonder the ladies ask me about you."

"Really? It's an honor. ”

He wanted to pick up the captain.

"Don't touch me, stinky boy, who are you serving? Hehe, getting drunk is too much of a luxury for me. ”

Leslie waved open.

I stood up on the carpet, pulled out the stool and sat down, the whole movement was slow but not embarrassed.

Adam's eyes were good, and he noticed that there was a mist floating in the air—not exhaled tobacco, but a substance that evaporated from his body, making the room look like a wine cellar.

[Expensive wines, rough and inferior products, all have water mixed with them.] And there are people who are affinity for this kind of thing, which is both a favor and a curse. 】

He also noted:

Leslie sits elegantly, even with her untied waist and hair loose, and in extreme fatigue, her back is far from the back of her chair.

"If you stare again, I'll gouge out your eyes."

"Well, say hello before my next visit, and I'll be able to avoid this kind of embarrassing thing."

"Tsk, are you afraid that I will bump into which girl are you hugging? Don't look outside, if there is a bill from the warbler on the table, I will definitely wave my hand and pay it for you. ”

Leslie propped up her chin and played with half a bottle of rum, teasing Duchen in a languid manner.

"Huh!"

Adam expressed shock.

"Seriously? I was working under such people. ”

"Not often, it's okay if it's you. Anyway, when I've rested enough, I'll set sail, and when the time comes, I'll kill you and give all the secrets to the Kraken. ”

Leslie's lips were seductive, but she said something dangerous.

She used her fingers to stop the spinning bottle, and when she looked up again, there was no flirtatiousness in her eyes.

"I heard it all against the wall, agreed, what are you doing...... If you try, you will get the protection and support of the captain, and although the tax will be reduced, I will have my share of the commission. ”

"Very reasonable."

Adam nodded in agreement.

He rummaged through the room for a while, and finally found a few sweet bean leaves in the drawer, threw them into the kettle and started shaking.

Leslie caught a glimpse from behind, her eyebrows furrowed and slightly frowned - it was clear that the other party was giving herself a hangover, which was careful and redundant.

"Ade, they must have visited you. The bay must be in order as soon as possible, and you are quite talented in management, so you don't need to accumulate any experience.

Duchen, have you ever considered whether you want to hunt the land or the sea? If profit and power are concerned, you should come with me to the boat. ”

Adam put the cup in front of her eyes.

The light gray liquid washes out a little bubble-like foam, which can help sleepless drinkers get rid of the feeling of bloating in the depths of their heads.

"I don't go to sea, and I'm not very interested in the life of stirring vegetable leaves with sweat stains."

", the Gilder is a lady, and the guys on board are top-notch, but I recruited them from Southtown, where the roast and cider are insane.

When you go out to sea, you can die at any time, and I will enjoy the time on the ship as if it were my last.

I never treat myself and my crew badly, so your worries are too much, and my suggestion, is it really no longer considered? ”

"Impossible."

Duheng nodded earnestly.

Dan de Leon needs him to run, but it is impossible to send the lord to the sea.

It is written in ancient books that the coastline is used to divide the two worlds, and even the souls of the deceased have their own belongings.

In Leslie's jurisdiction, there are two kinds of wealth, those who sail to catch animals or collect fish, called [sea hunting], all rely on experience and luck, and they have to gamble their lives during the high-risk voyage.

On the other hand, it is [Hunting Land].

The Najrfa coastline, though fragmented and cut off by ridges, is bordered by bandits and warlords, and the Mock Bay is no exception.

They plundered nearby villages or seized trade routes, and were the most annoying figures for freight stations and coachmen.

The captain's men, if they grow stronger, can go out to hunt some unformed teams, eat the spoils, and even receive bounties and commissions.

Elsewhere, there are warlords who pledge allegiance to the captain.

After they cooperate, they can use non-violence to accumulate wealth and development, which can be regarded as mutual benefit and win-win results.

There are many things in the mountains, monsters are rampant, wild beasts are bloodthirsty, corpse whisperers and strange strange stories can be seen everywhere.

But on the other hand, alchemy materials and top-level consumables abound, and if you really carry them, you can also pick up some beast corpses and let the cook cook a delicious supper.

In general, in the eyes of the boatswain and the first mate, Duchen's trust with the captain was basically lucky.

And Adam can also observe that Leslie is a business formation, not to mention the overall strength, and also shapes the image of the female captain as cold on the outside and hot on the inside.

Strangers talk about it, but followers are loyal.

They discussed the details and costs on the issue of "sharing the spoils", like sailors stepping on treasure chests after returning to the sea.

The dazzling light at noon gradually turned into the vicissitudes of the sun.

Adam was tall enough to overlook the returning fishing boats from the windowsill, the distant pier was cut into sections by houses and cliffs, and the crowds who were busy with the night began to move.

"It's not early, the city has been very lively for the past two days, whether you want to eat in advance to pad your stomach or prepare a gift for a meeting, you can go out."

He plucked the pearls hidden in the carpet with his toes.

Its original owner, irritatingly, ripped it off and flung it to the side of the table.

Leslie wasn't ready for the dinner party, and she frequently twisted her sideburns, hoping to gain strength from closing her eyes.

"Forget it, don't prepare new clothes, forget about those banquets, and go back to get some sleep. You're the captain, and no one else should worry about how to get the privileges out of you. ”

"Duheng, you have a knack for making people happy, and you hide it deep enough, you should be allowed to deal with this kind of."

"I'd love to! Not only to share your worries, but also to make friends with the powerful and establish some connections of your own, hey, it's just that I don't have a chance. ”

Adam said this, but he didn't show any expectation.

He spoke in a flirtatious tone, his expression was always calm, and refilled the empty glass with distilled water.

Almost all the purified water that can be drunk on the Nagilfa coastline has a special taste, and the rich will purify it in order to pursue the taste.

And there are also in the [tax office], and it was Adam who deliberately let the subordinates to entertain the guests.

He handed it over, letting Leslie dilute the smell of medicine between his lips and teeth.

Leslie took a half-sip, but his eyes were fixed on Duheng.

"It's too early, if you can accompany me now, you have to be prepared to be isolated by the rest of my command. It's better to wait for the warlord's matter to be resolved, and it would be good to have some merit. ”
