Chapter 120: Cold Face Penn
The day passed quietly, and during this day, Cauchy was very busy, to pacify the people internally, to fight with the navy that came to the door from time to time, and to send people to purge the entire royal capital
When he returned to the dormitory, he saw that Bucky had made a mess of the room, and he thought about it, and he understood Bucky's intentions, and he couldn't help but smile wryly.
And this day, Bucky did not find nothing, and Cauchy handed him a manuscript of Diderot's essays.
Diderot not only has one mansion of the Chancellor of the Exchequer, he has a total of three villas in Galo, and this note is also searched from the secret room of one of the villas, which is secretly Diderot's notes, recording all kinds of important events and conspiracies that happened when he came to Santansdi from the New World, as for why he left such a notebook, according to the explanation in the essay, it should be that he is old and his memory has begun to decline, so it is necessary to record things to prevent omissions and negligence.
Diderot's habit of taking notes was to start with the first page, from page to page, but turning back from the last page, Bucky found a transcript written backwards......
It is a cultivation method of armed color domineering!!
Waiting until the next night, Mikul dialed the phone bug that Bucky had brought with him through the phone bug left on Leaky, and sent a message that they had parked the ship on the north shore closest to the royal capital Garo, and that the magnetic force on the recording hands was full, ready to set off on the next island.
Later, in the main hall of the palace, Jonathan came again with a few cronies, although the navy helped Santansdi eradicate the tumor of the One-Eyed family, but this operation did not capture the pirate Dikoro after all, and he didn't even know whether the other party was dead or alive, and the key figure in it, Bucky the Clown, had been hidden in the palace.
Jonathan no longer plans to grind with Cauchy, and directly negotiates to Cauchy: Bucky the Pirate must be handed over to their navy!
Cauchy looked at Jonathan below and said regretfully, "Lieutenant General Jonathan, if you mean pirates...... The palace has indeed been invaded by thieves and lost a lot of valuables, perhaps those thieves are what you call the pirate Bucky and his party! ”
A flash of surprise flashed in Jonathan's eyes, "In that case, then please ask His Majesty to hand over the group of pirates caught to our navy!" ”
"It's a shame...... It's been more than two hours since they fled, and this king is about to issue a wanted warrant to arrest this gang! ”
"It's been more than two hours...... Jonathan's heart sank, he finally understood why Cauchy's attitude changed, and he took the initiative to reveal the news, if Bucky's group "invaded" the palace as thieves, then Cauchy's position has changed from covering Bucky's entry into the palace "helper" to being attacked by pirates, no matter what the truth is, but this set of rhetoric can rationalize many things.
"This group of pirates is so hateful, this king's dormitory has been destroyed to a mess, if Lieutenant General Jonathan refuses to believe it, follow this king to the dormitory to have a look."
"No need, I still have something to do, I'll leave first!"
Jonathan barely squeezed out a smile and nodded at Cauchy, but his heart was extremely anxious, and he quickly walked out of the palace and dialed the phone, "I'm Jonathan, two hours ago, was there any suspicious person who left Garo?" ”
After a while, a message came from the phone bug: "Lieutenant General, I have asked all the soldiers on duty, and there are no suspicious people who left Garo two hours ago, but...... Instead, a small group of soldiers dressed as the King's Guard went north. ”
Jonathan frowned, and said sharply, "Inform the soldiers of the first and second teams, immediately organize their marches, and go to the north shore pass, and if you find any men and horses of the King's Guard or suspicious people along the way, immediately report to me and intercept them!" ”
A sonorous voice came from the phone bug: "Yes!! ”
Jonathan walked briskly towards the outside of the palace, ready to chase after him himself, although he didn't know why Cauchy wanted to shelter this group of pirates, but there was no doubt that Bucky's group should have used the convoy costume to leave Garo unnoticed, and their costume was still "stolen" from the palace, and it had nothing to do with Cauchy!!
There is not a single flaw...... What a clever means!!
……
Bucky and the others hurried overnight in the palace guard uniforms, all the way to the north shore pass, due to the early departure, when they were about to reach the coast, the navy was still nowhere to be seen.
It was already the morning of the third day, and the sun was rising, and the green leaves of the morning dew were lifted from the trees, and at last the Bikudopp was moored at the mouth of the coast, and Mikul was lying on the deck.
All the forces brought by the navy this time were used to blockade the royal capital, and they had no time to take care of this port on the north shore, not to mention that they didn't know that Bucky and his gang would go to sea from this port.
After Bucky and his party all got on the boat, lifted anchor and sailed hundreds of meters away from the sea, Tina, who was one step ahead, appeared at the shore mouth, with a lady's cigarette in her mouth, slowly exhaled a smoke ring, frowned deeply, and watched Bucky's group gradually drift away, and suddenly understood the helplessness of her long-time friend Smoker.
Both of the Navy's warships were parked at the South Shore Entrance, and even if they sailed overnight, they would not be able to reach here until at least noon, so Bucky and his party would have long since disappeared.
The pirate Bucky appeared in the port of Lanang before, indicating that their pirate ship was parked near the south side of Santansdi, and because of this, Tina has been focusing on several ports in the south of the island, and as soon as there is information, he immediately rushes there, but now the ship is unknowingly going to sea from the north of the island, this navigation and deployment have to make people a little helpless.
And in addition, judging from the strength of the Bucky Pirates as a whole in Santansdi, it is by no means an ordinary pirate group, how much can this brave and resourceful pirate group make waves in this world in the future......
Unable to nip such a pirate in the bud, Tina sighed deeply.
Jonathan, who was a step late, finally appeared after a while, looked at the empty sea and asked, "Colonel Tina, have the Bucky Pirates left?" ”
Tina lowered her head slightly: "Lieutenant General Jonathan...... Tina is ashamed to have failed your trust. ”
"Colonel Tina, as a navy, we have fulfilled our duties and duties......"
Jonathan patted Tina on the shoulder, "You defeated the cadres of the One-Eyed Family, it's already a great achievement, as for letting Bucky go, you don't have to take it to heart, there are gains and losses in life, if we can control everything, then there won't be so many pirates on this sea, didn't we also learn a lot of experience and tempering this time?" Including those soldiers, who have shown unprecedented cooperation and unity in this war, and supported and helped those suffering people after the war, aren't they also getting more growth in this battle? ”
Speaking of this, Jonathan paused, and then said slowly: "We may not have won this battle...... But again, we didn't lose, did we? ”
Tina looked at Jonathan, her heavy mood finally eased a lot, and a smile appeared on her face: "Vice Admiral Jonathan's words made Tina mouth suddenly, Tina agreed very much, yes, these soldiers are bricks, pieces of tiles, forming the cornerstone of the navy, they are growing step by step, and the navy will naturally continue to grow!" ”
"That's right...... Jonathan laughed, and changed his words, "then, I have another proposal, Colonel Penn, who took the lead in this battle, do you want to consider fraternal with him, you two are not too young, maybe ......"
A group of panting Navy soldiers behind him caught up at this time, and when they heard the conversation between Jonathan and Tina, they suddenly stopped breathing, pricked up their ears, and their gossip heart ignited, and they looked back at Colonel Penn, who insisted on rushing despite their injuries, and whispered.
"Hey, Lieutenant General, I'm going to pull the strings between the two colonels!"
"Colonel Tina is so beautiful, although Colonel Penn is not handsome, but his heart is more honest and kind than many people, if the two of them are together, I absolutely support it!"
"I support it, but ...... Colonel Penn has justice in his heart, and he is running around to exterminate pirates, he may not have a heart for the relationship between men and women, don't believe you! ”
Peng En was approachable, and everyone didn't have too many scruples about words in front of him, and after the soldier finished speaking, the eyes of a large number of people around him fell on Peng En's face.
Penn was expressionless, and there was no emotion on his zombie-like face, as if what Jonathan was saying and what everyone was talking about had nothing to do with him.
Really...... Colonel Penn is a man who takes the affairs of the world as his family, which is really admirable!
The admirals sighed in their hearts, admiring and regretting at the same time, wanting to get Colonel Tina's favor and the opportunity to have dinner together was a blessing that could not be cultivated in three lifetimes, but Penn didn't care at all.
Tina listened to Jonathan's suggestion, spit out a puff of smoke rings, the navy cloak behind her swaying in the wind, and she said slowly, "I'm sorry, Tina refused!" ”
"Rejected......"
"yes, how do I have a feeling of falling out of love......"
"It's painful......"
The soldiers were dejected, and their mood was depressed, as if they were the ones who had been rejected.
Someone else said, "Colonel Penn won't care anyway, so don't be sentimental!" ”
Everyone looked at Peng En, who still had an indifferent expression, and nodded in agreement: "Yes, yes, yes......"
In the echo of the crowd, Penn fell to the ground on his back, his eyes losing the color of life.
"Hey...... Colonel Penn's breathing began to wane...... The wounds on his body were torn open...... He started to have a fever...... He seems to be dying! Doctor, doctor!! ”
