Chapter Seventy-Six: I'm Waiting for You to Come Back
Brubru, Brubru......
In the dimly lit room, the phone rang suddenly.
The three people who were anxiously waiting in the room looked surprised, and the strong man in the police uniform couldn't wait to pick up the phone.
"Fogris?"
"It's me, Your Excellency, what are the instructions now?"
"We've taken care of the fishmen guarding the ship, you keep an eye on the movements of the Sun Pirates and report to me at any time, is there any problem?"
"Yes, Your Excellency, I promise to do it."
Foglis's expression was excited, and he glanced at the other two.
In the dimly lit room, several people breathed a sigh of relief.
"On the other side, is it really that man's fleet?"
The village elder, Joseph, couldn't believe it, he had grown up listening to the legend of this man.
"Not bad." A hint of blush flashed across Foglis's face, and his eyes were bright, "It's the fleet of the Navy Hero, His Excellency Vice Admiral 'Iron Fist', we don't have to worry about it now." β
The fat golden man took a hard puff of his cigar and said to Voglis, "Thanks to you this time, we were able to let such a powerful figure come over." If there is anything in the future, just come to me, as long as I can do it, I will never refuse. β
Compared with old Joseph, the fat man is undoubtedly more human. And through this incident, he also saw the ability of Foglis, and it is only good for him to have a good relationship with such a person.
Before, I didn't see that this guy still had this kind of ability.
But it's not too late, only by spending money can you earn more, and the fat man can become the richest person in the whole village, and he sees this very thoroughly.
Foglis listened to the fat man's words, and a flash of joy flashed in his eyes.
With this commitment, he and his wife and children will undoubtedly have a much better life in the future.
You must know that this simple policeman can't let his family live a rich life.
Old Joseph also hurriedly nodded and said, "I also mean the same old man, after living for so many years, I still have some connections, and this matter is considered that the old man owes you a favor." β
Foglis nodded in thanks, "Then thank you both." β
"Without further ado, keep an eye on them now, and I'm not going to stay here."
"It should be, it should be, it's important to get down to business."
β¦β¦β¦β¦
β¦β¦β¦β¦
With short soft yellow hair, she walked out of a gray-white house, smiled and waved goodbye to the owner of the room, her little face had a determined joy, and she cheered herself up with a solemn expression: "Kerra, you can, you can explain it to all the villagers with three more families, the fish people are also a friendly race, they will not hurt the villagers." β
Sent back by the fishmen, Kella discovers that the villagers have a hostile attitude towards the fishmen, and she has been going to every house for three days to explain to people that the fishmen are also good people.
It's just that she doesn't understand that there is a saying called non-my race, and its heart must be different.
She also doesn't know what kind of mentality it is like to be a group of people's lives that are completely out of her control, and they can only survive by relying on the kindness of others.
This is not something that can be understood and accepted by everyone after she explains a few words to everyone.
What's more, as early as the first day she returned, the news of the Fish-Man Pirates had already been reported to the Navy Headquarters.
In the past three days, many villagers have listened carefully to her words and explanations. However, most of the villagers did not pay attention to what she said.
A child's words are not convincing, let alone their own survival.
Kella didn't know this, but she was full of gratitude to Tiger and Jinpei, Hachi, and other fishmen, and she wanted to tell everyone about the kindness and friendliness of these people.
It's just that reality is not a fairy tale, and she is destined to do useless work.
When Foglis came out of the village chief's house, he happened to meet Kerra, who had just come out of a villager's house.
"Uncle Foglis." Kerra saw that Foglis's eyes were bright and stopped him.
Mr. Policeman's face was a little stiff, he didn't expect him to feel a little guilty and embarrassed when he met Kerra, after all, the Fish-Man Pirates were sent back by Kerra, and he was a little at a loss in the face of this little girl.
"Well, it's little Kerra, why are you here?"
Kerra grabbed Foglis's sleeve first, and a voice full of innocence sounded: "Uncle Fogris, I'm here to tell you that Mr. Tiger is a good man. They won't hurt the villagers, and I'll be able to explain it to everyone if there are a few more. β
"Uncle Fogris, you must believe me, right, Mr. Tiger freed so many slaves and sent me home, he is a good man, and the Sun Pirates are also good people."
However, Foglis looked embarrassed, and he couldn't tell this naΓ―ve little girl that the pirates were about to be captured by the navy.
He could only say, "No...... Yes, they are good people. β
"Thank you, Uncle Fogris, for being a good man too." Kerra had bright eyes and a happy smile on her face.
"Then I'll go to the next house, goodbye Uncle Fogris."
Foglis looked at Kerra, who was bouncing forward, with a complicated expression.
Although the Fish-Man Pirates have been restrained and have not hurt people in the past few days, out of fear and hatred for them, the entire village has fallen into a state of panic, and even their work has stalled a lot.
Finally, Foglis gritted his teeth and became firm: "I'm sorry, Kerra , although they saved you, it doesn't change the fact that they are pirate criminals. β
He turned and walked towards the place where the fishmen had gathered in the middle of the village.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
β¦β¦β¦β¦
The fish people who stayed on the pirate ship on the island have been completely captured by the navy that suddenly appeared. Now the entire ship is under the control of the Navy.
Behind the bushes on the shore and the sparse giant cactus, many naval soldiers have been arranged to lie in ambush there, a large net has been weaved, quietly waiting for the arrival of the prey.
Standing in the open space were Karp, Mawson, and Bogart, with Old Man Karp standing at the front, followed by Mawson, and Bogart leading the soldiers with spears at the end.
The complex battle plans and terminology were simplified by Bogart to the style that best suited the current terrain, in short: soldier to soldier.
The soldiers in ambush were holding launchers that could shoot large webs similar to spider webs, and the goal was, of course, to capture the group of fish alive as much as possible.
Brubru ......
The phone bug in Bogart's hand rang, and he calmly picked up the microphone.
The voice rang out: "The Fish-Man Pirates have left the village, Your Excellency. β
The prey is coming soon.

PS: In the original plot, only Tiger took Kella off the boat, but he didn't enter the village. Here's a slight change, above.
