When he was a chorus away from her, Adam deliberately withheld the heavy footnote, the sense of rhythm, which was distinguished from the dull and chaotic footsteps of the coolies, reminding him of his presence.

Lylis tilted his head slightly, the blonde hair still draped over his naturally complexed shoulders.

She took a few steps back.

A standing table for the captain sits here, and a blue cobalt ice bucket with unseasonal moisture wafting through it contains several bottles of fine wine.

"You're welcome."

Leslie pushed through the new glass.

【Expensive Silver Rum】

Adam pulled it out of the bucket, feeling a slight chill through his gloves.

The date, fineness and pattern on the mouth of the bottle are all known for their luxury and elegance, and it is obviously not an ordinary product that can be enjoyed by alcoholics.

He poured a few mouthfuls with restraint.

There were no seats near this table, and the two of them stood next to them.

Dressed in a corseted, ivory-white ruffled shirt, Leslie was a far cry from the kind of noblewoman imprisoned by the Rococo style – free, wild, and independent.

Instead of toasting Adam, she took the fine porcelain on the table herself.

Teapots, buddy cups, pintos, and even milk cups and sugar jars.

"Sarnia black tea, tasteful."

Adam finished with a serious expression in his eyes, and then raised his head and swallowed the good wine in the other party's disdainful eyes.

"Yesterday, you didn't come, and you released the captain's pigeons."

Les used the porcelain spoon to stir for a long time, his expression did not change much, and the feather-colored ring was calm and charming.

"Hmm-"

Adam took the slightly lightly scented rum in his mouth, and put on a thoughtful look, as if he had forgotten what had happened yesterday.

Goo-dong.

"So, if I want to work, I have to report my trip first, right?"

"Nope."

She shook her head slightly, and there was a faint lemon scent.

"When men don't want to confess, I never waste time listening to the lies they come up with."

The bottom of the cup snapped into the tray and there was a crisp sound.

Adam smiled and nodded, and indeed did not continue to speak, and the tip of his nose smelled a faint aroma of tea, which was slightly different from what Belan had smelled in the maintenance room.

"Anyway, I don't care.

I have a lot of people under me, and I don't bother to ask about my private life, where did you lose money yesterday, or which girl did you go with...... Uh-huh, do you understand, it's too much trouble.

To do what you have to do, privilege and freedom, you need to fight for. ”

With that, Lyllis reached for the last pile of papers.

【Unfinished Business: Captains and Warlords】

Adam took it, and the pile seemed to have been put away a long time ago, and he was sure that he was coming.

"I asked the traffickers in Taeganda and investigated the name Duheng, including what he looked like and how he behaved."

When she spoke, she looked at the man in front of her without a trace, and the other party did not panic at all, calmly took a glass and drank wine, and at the same time reached out to flip through the commission.

"yes, what do you think of me, if it's too bad, don't relay it."

Adam responded calmly, if Leslie had any conclusions, he would have surrounded himself with a slaughterhouse long ago, and there was no need to detour around the corner.

"Very good, I decided to save you some of the chores.

I wasn't in the bay before, and a lot of people came to me, and the ship's mate and boatswain digested some of it, and you took care of the rest.

Don't rejoice, you'll need them. ”

Rielis raised an eyebrow, the corners of his mouth curled in an arc of unknown meaning, and gently closed the commission and pushed it over.

"Go back, this glass of wine is a welcome to you, and I wish you a good time in the Bay of Mocking Skull, Mr. Duchen."

Adam stopped taking the cup, turned and walked back the way he came.

"Captain, I have to report to you about Buck, I swear it has nothing to do with personal conflicts."

The bald first mate, dressed in a Frac coat, walked up at the right time after the meeting was confirmed.

"Ade, why?"

Hearing this, he noticed that the captain had a thoughtful and confused look on his face, and that she would put on this expression whenever she was unsure of a person's heart, or when she was not confident in every decision.

Therefore, Ade decided to put the boatswain business aside and be a quiet listener.

"Duheng has a problem, haven't we discussed it, your decision at the time was, let's see."

"He is obviously very sociable, but he has very little to say just now, does not quibble, does not sell well, does not flatter, and the perfect and casual guy is often the most dangerous."

The white mist adheres to the outer edge of the empty cup, leaving several clear fingerprints.

A piece of discarded manuscript paper, at some point, was pressed under the tray, revealing only a small corner with the number of a certain neighborhood written on it.

Rylis retracted his gaze and turned to look at Ade, the first mate instantly adjusted his stance, his expression solemn as if he was on a journey.

"Compared to Duchen, Buck is too little of a threat to me. Developing in the Gulf, if the people under my hands have no personality, no ambition, that's the worst thing. ”

……

The sun sinks into the sea level, and the hustle and bustle and lights come on in the bay.

Laurie watched the van go away, sighed to the sad neighbors on the street, and turned into the shop, isolating the sound of tired footsteps and sighs.

On the table were spread out papers, a few plates of meat dishes, and a dry red that had not woken up.

"Well, sir, I earned ten golden crows today, and it's worth celebrating."

When Adam heard this, he woke up from his false sleep, smiled and chatted kindly, and the two glasses collided in the firelight.

Laurie knew how to break the ice, but he couldn't figure out who was in front of him.

During this time, he followed the instructions of the other party and did many things, including finding out the location of the cargo station, contacting and identifying all the drivers in the bay.

The bottom of the store, the relationship between the characters of the street, and the jobs in the neighborhood.

"You're quite ambitious, and it's going to be difficult."

The more you know, the more dangerous it is to survive in the bay.

So he never asked too much about these things, and by the time the past few days had come to an end, the information his new employer wanted to have had a rough outline.

What's even more terrifying is that when Duheng returned, he talked about everything that happened in the slaughterhouse, including the conversation with Ange.

Laurie doesn't want to know this, it's too dangerous!

He has now determined that his new owner is not called this name, and even wants to do more business than just a few shops......

"I'm on the boat, and the only way left for me is to paddle or jump deck."

[Attitude: Fear and anxiety]

Adam could see that Laurie's hands were shaking.

"The stability you want is the most luxurious thing in this world, and I have the confidence to bring it to you, and you can swear to any god you want, if you need it."

"I know, sir, I'm not pretentious, I've made a choice."

Being able to do more is a sign of trust and importance, and it should be something to be thankful for in most employment relationships.

Laurie comforted himself that he wouldn't live for a few years anyway, so go into the sea with his eyes closed.

"You should be worried, Ange and the three of them, they are terrified by you, if you are too anxious to save your life, shake your business out of the captain's hands......"
