(38) Red apples

As Planck's praised and designated successor, Morgan's talent is undeniable, and he outperforms his contemporaries in naval command and fleet management, but none of his greatest skills are these.

The nickname 'The Strongest Swordsman of the Sea' is a nickname that Morgan earned in his battles with the navy and pirates.

However, as a clever and cunning pirate, Morgan would not fight his enemies fairly unless circumstances forced him to.

He would defeat those who considered himself noble warriors in the meanest but safest way possible, and would not hesitate to turn and flee when there was no need to fight, Planck taught him that 'the essence of piracy is to plunder treasure, not to fight with people, which is what fools do, but there is no need to fight for treasure, unless you feel that it is worth everything.' ’

But the great pirate, who was also a master and father, did not tell Morgan what kind of treasure was worth giving up until the end.

"Hah! What the strongest swordsman on the sea. Didn't you end up almost dying in the end? And ......"

Morgan couldn't help but recall the red-haired boy who had hurriedly exchanged hands with him in the cabin, a little imp whose body had not yet grown to the heyday of martial arts could bring an unrivaled pressure to himself in the period of rising force, the strongest at sea...... Is it?

In fact, Morgan doesn't have to be so inferior, because the combat power of Ice Hunt in its heyday is enough to hang the price of 6300 in the League of Legends, even if he can't use the true power of the ghost swordsman for the time being, Ice Hunt's body has been developed to the limit of mortal beings by the power of ghosts and gods.

"I robbed enough of the wealth of a small country and formed a pirate regiment of three hundred, but after losing it, I didn't even feel the slightest bit of regret, Planck...... Am I too greedy, or am I really a saint who has no desires? ”

Morgan muttered to himself, then amused by his own joke... Are you kidding? How could a guy like him be a saint?

"Woohoo! Whew! I'm coming! Morgan, who was inexplicably melancholy, suddenly heard a vigorous shout, and he couldn't help but smile.

After telling the story, Morgan had been worried that Dong Dong would suddenly open his mind and never come back to the cellar where he was temporarily staying, but it turned out that his worries were purely unnecessary, and she didn't change what the little guy should look like or what he should be.

Dongdong didn't get estranged because he deliberately concealed something that he could already speak, and the girl he told her the story of "The Farmer and the Snake" was the same thing at allβ€”she didn't even understand it at all! So every morning, the birds still come and chirp.

"Wow, yesterday I went to work with Mei Li in Sister Xuexue's dim sum shop. Melly doesn't seem to be good at this! ”

After handing the bread and water to Morgan, who had not yet recovered his eyes, he sat down and flattened the fruit while talking.

"Melly seemed to be very scared of the crowd at first, and she couldn't walk the nervous road when she served snacks! It feels so cute! ”

It is already remarkable that a delicate lady like Mai Lubelli can decide to come to work in a crowded and mixed trade area, and usually use only a pen and a textbook to shake the customers when she picks up the tray, for fear of being slipped by her hands.

Sister Xue Xue was very worried when she saw Mei Li's appearance, so she asked Mei Li to hand drinks and napkins to guests at the counter.

In fact, Ye Jianxue didn't think that Dongdong would bring such a trouble to herself, the other party was the eldest lady of the Hearn family, and it was not proper to come to work in a place like herself, but seeing this child's hopeful expression, she couldn't bear to refuse.

Although Ye Jianxue is very attentive to these rules and etiquette, she may not take them all seriously, and she has asked Dongdong and Meili, knowing that this matter is allowed by the lord himself, so she simply left Meili, and her small shop increased again.

Merely...... Not every child has such a special growth process as Dong Dong, trivial chores are handled handy, watching Melly work, it is really very sad, and the night snow is constantly changing Melly's job position, and in the end the girl feels so tired.

Let her stand at the door as a billboard, and a pedestrian who comes over and asks a few words will make her run behind Dongdong and shrink up, and ask her to hand over the meal paper and drink, but this young lady does not remember people's faces, and holds a pile of brewed coffee and tea but does not know who to hand it to.

'This child should exercise well, if he is so shy and frightened, I am afraid it will be difficult to live independently in the future, right? ’

Ye Jianxue, who has a lot of experience with children, made such a pertinent evaluation after carefully observing Melly's performance.

"You know what? Whew! Even so, there are a lot of people who like Melly! There are a lot of guests who love to talk to Melly. ”

Of course, stupid kids are annoying, and Melly's job at the dim sum shop is ...... Not a stupid word to describe it, this genius, who can calculate the commercial income and expenditure of the whole city of Bologna with the data of a small area as accurate as the statistics of functional buildings, encountered the most difficult thing of his life, and got along with strangers in an unfamiliar environment.

The part-time job itself is not a difficult thing, and anyone with hands and feet can do it, but the only thing that needs to be overcome in this job is the problem of mentality, and it is impossible for a person who is afraid of being shy to do this kind of work that requires a lot of contact with strangers.

As for this kid...... Do you expect a sweater to understand human shame?

Besides, her initial cowardice and stage fright have almost been corrected with experience after experience.

However, when Melly dared to run to college with a serious lack of basic knowledge and a round of age difference, it means that she is actually an extremely determined child, and it is difficult for this kind of person to waver once she has made up her mind.

So even though Melly came home after the first day of work and locked herself in the house and wrapped herself in the quilt and didn't see anyone, the next day she still put on that maid outfit and said, 'I felt good yesterday, continue today!' ’

Even Dong Dong could tell that she was actually just being strong, and Dio touched his sister's hair and didn't say anything.

"Woohoo! Melly is such a strong kid! She had already gone to the store before me, and I was ...... soon Well? ”

Chipping the fruit while chatting is a test of skill, and she scratches her fingers.

"Hmm~ hand scratched. Bleeding...... Yes! Apple! The apples are dirty! ”

In the first two sentences, Dong Dong said it with a smile in a declarative tone, but the last sentence was very loud, as if Dong Dong's injury was not as important as the apple being soiled.

"It's dirty...... Whew, I can't eat it......"

Dongdong looked at half of the red-dyed apples, and wanted to cry without tears.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ No, that's okay. ”

At that moment, Morgan reached over and grabbed the blood-stained apple accurately.

"This apple is still edible...... Hurry up and stop the bleeding. ”

"Huh? Woo you're talking again! ”

"It's better for you to stop the bleeding quickly."

Dong Dong originally came to change Morgan's dressing, so he prepared gauze, and the small wound caused by the fruit knife was quickly treated, and after doing what he had to do, Dong Dong was ready to leave.

"Whew, I'm leaving! Will be back in the evening! ”

She said it every day, but when she said it, she would leave......

Morgan smiled, then put the slightly browned apple to his mouth.

β€˜β€¦β€¦ It's so sweet. ’
