Chapter 204: Harushiro Amakusa (2-in-1 Grand Chapter Asking for a Monthly Pass)
When Irin pushed the door open, his face looked like a shy little flower.
At the round table, there were twelve people, sitting in circles.
Like the legendary "Knights of the Round Table".
But Irin didn't, because the table was designed to only seat twelve people.
The rest of the people were all straight-slung and stood aside in a proper manner, not daring to say more.
Hey?
Poor Nolando too?
Yes!
I survived.
Yi Rin originally wanted to say hello to Nolando, who was not supposed to die, but because the atmosphere was too solemn, Yi Rin also gave up this plan.
After a moment, Irin's gaze turned away from Nolando and landed again on the strangest figure in the round table.
At the top of the round table, a "person" in a gorgeous uniform looked over the moment Irin stepped into the conference room.
What struck Irin find most strange was not the man's looks, nor the obvious traits of demeanor.
Instead, that "person", all the skin that should be exposed outside the clothes, is wrapped in a thick bandage, just like the "bandage man" played by Li Changge in COS Haiting City.
On the bandage man's head, he is also wearing a certain gray-white curly wig and a red hat with gold trim, which is very forceful.
- and sunglasses.
From head to toe, almost no physical features are shown, not even the eyes are revealed.
So mysterious?
This sudden change in the style of painting made Irin's eyes more attentive, obviously, there is something weird, needless to say.
Kira Robert.
It is said that this is the name of the Governor of the Navy.
Is it any wonder that whenever Swan Swan mentions this name, his eyes involuntarily reveal an indescribable embarrassment?
Dare him to put his daughter in the fire?
In an instant, through the information compiled in this extremely short period of time, Yi Rin can roughly deduce the reason why "Elizabeth Rin" was captured.
Nine times out of ten, they ran away from home!
If it were him, he would have to run if he broke his leg!
Irin had no choice but to walk in the direction of Kira Robert, who was dressed in odd costumes.
Wait a minute.
Irin's footsteps did not stop, but in an instant, after further analysis of the limited information, Elizabeth Rin and Kira Robert were further related.
"Maybe ......?"
Yi Rin's heart moved, and under the veil, he directly put on an angry expression, snorted, walked to the corner, and kept a certain distance from Kira Robert.
Kira looked away again.
The other expressions were not surprised, as if Elizabeth Rin's appearance and reaction were not what they expected.
Really.
That's right.
According to Kira Robert's weird character, if Elizabeth Rin really wants to marry, it's a hell.
"Reluctantly" is the right option.
The brief look just now, the gaze that Kira Robert came from through his sunglasses, made Irin feel a sense of disobedience, and for a while, he couldn't speak.
The meeting continues.
Irin was expressionless, pretending to be a tsundere lady, but secretly looking at everyone in the conference room.
If there is no accident, the vote in front of him should be the existence at the apex of the "navy" camp.
Governor of the Navy – Kira Robert.
At the round table, sitting on the right and left sides of the governor, there were three navymen dressed in pure white cloaks.
Two of them are handsome blonde men, one long and the other short...... It's about hair.
looks like they are about thirty years old, and the facial features of the two men are very three-dimensional, the short-haired man has a tight face, while the long-haired man shows a hint of a shallow smile from time to time, elegant and calm.
And the other one next to Kira Robert is a sexy redhead.
The red and white military uniform was unbuttoned by her, and the originally dignified and decent navy uniform was forced by the woman to wear a "deep V" effect.
Yi Rin kept a few more eyes, and roughly estimated that the figure was on par with Elizabeth Rin.
The woman wears a dark V version of the military uniform, a pure white cape, and holds a golden pipe with a narrow pipe in her hand, which is exquisitely made. The woman smoked a small cigarette, and the curling cigarette rose from the pipe, making the atmosphere of the conference room full of smoke, and no one dared to show a strange expression.
"These three guys have an unusual status."
If the real "Elizabeth Rin" was here, it is estimated that he would know these people, but Irin's only wearing the vest of "Elizabeth Rin", if he does not prepare in advance, it is very likely that he will be exposed.
Irin spent the shortest amount of time observing the twelve people on the round table, quietly moving his steps.
Hey?
Behind the cloaks of the three senior navy officers, there seems to be a row of words written vertically.
Is it "justice"?
It doesn't seem to be.
Irin made it carefully.
It turned out - "pirates must die".
On the round table.
"Lieutenant General Pope, I heard that you were beaten by a pirate not long ago and fled?"
Suddenly.
At the round table, a naval officer with a mustache glanced at a man named Pope.
Lieutenant General Pope?
Pope?
Irin noticed that the name seemed familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.
The moment Lieutenant General Pope heard this, his face, which was originally quite round, instantly turned into a pig's liver red, trembling, and he didn't say a word for a long time.
As for the other upper echelons of the navy at the round table, except for the three cloaked men and women, and the bandaged governor, the others were all extremely elegant words, with warm smiles, and comforted Pop.
The general meaning is nothing more than -
"It's not that Pope is too incompetent, it's that the enemy is too cunning."
"It's okay, next time Pop will catch that damn pirate, even if not necessarily next time."
"You've done well enough, it's enough to play at a real level, you don't care about winning or losing."
"It's okay, it must be unlucky, maybe the next time you're lucky, you'll be able to catch that damn pirate!"
Words are good words, but the more you listen to them, the more uncomfortable they become?
Really.
Pop's face changed from the color of pork liver at the beginning, listening to the various comforting lines around him, gradually evolving into black, as if Pop was showing signs of fainting.
Knock Knock Knock –
Just when the discussion at the round table was about to go overboard.
An abrupt knock sounded from the corner of the round table, and in an instant, all the voices of discussion and comfort fell silent for a few seconds, as if they had never been heard before.
"Oh?"
Irin smiled.
It turned out to be the deep-V pipe girl, who knocked on the table with her delicate pipe.
Knock Knock Knock –
"That's it."
The Deep V Pipe Girl took a long puff of smoke, and in the conference room, the smoke filled with elusive shapes.
"I heard that the 'Skeleton Gentleman' has 'black magic'...... Hehe, most likely, he knows how to use 'that power'. ”
Hiss –
In the conference room, everyone was so frightened that they all took a puff of second-hand smoke.
"How is that possible! Anyone else other than those four damn pirates knows how to wield 'that power'? ”
"Could it be that the sea, which belongs to us, is going to be in chaos again?"
"If what Admiral Tiramisu said is true, then ...... next"
When all the navies heard the news, their expressions were cloudy.
Irin was surprised.
I didn't expect the name of "Skeleton Gentleman" to have spread here?
Surprised at the top of the Navy?
He quietly opened the captain's panel and took a look.
Fame...... Famous?
Was it this grade?
"Huh."
Admiral Tiramisu on the other side.
The man in the long-haired cloak, who was also wearing the cloak of "Pirates Must Die", also came out of nowhere, snapped on the ground, and took out a few stacks of brand-new paper, with the smell of new ink, and presented them in front of everyone.
The man slowly uttered a few names in a magnetic voice.
"Skeletal gentleman."
If it were a different occasion, Irin might not be able to help but reply.
- "To".
"Nicholas Zhao."
"Indiana Jones."
"These three have all started from being unknown in just over a month, and have now become notorious pirates."
"The three of them can be said to be a new generation that has risen again since the decline of the 'pirates of the old era'."
"I, Admiral Macchiato, would like to call these three 'the worst of the new generation'!"
"Hehe, if these three damn pirates are willing to fall into mastering 'that power', it will be enough to set off a huge storm on the sea, don't forget, the goal of our navy's existence, what are we fighting for, if they continue to sail, it will definitely hinder our plans!"
Irin silently absorbed the information.
By the way, a confused face.
This so-called "Nicholas Zhao", a discerning person can know that he is an apostle at a glance!
How did you achieve such a low level of name and be able to integrate into this worldview so harmoniously?
Deep in his heart, Irin's heart is frantically complaining.
The other "Indiana Jones" didn't feel anything out of place, and at first glance, Irin didn't feel anything special.
Intelligence is limited.
Because Irin broke in the middle of the meeting, he didn't know what was going on.
But since Irin came in, the content discussed in the meeting, some of the sentences, have a lot of meaningless embellishments, giving people a sense of secrecy.
"Is it because of the scruples of Elizabeth Rin's existence?"
Irin thought silently.
The meeting ended in a rousing speech.
From beginning to end, Elizabeth Rin's fiancé, the man covered in bandages, didn't say a word again.
It's like a puppet on a round table.
until the adjournment of the meeting.
Everyone left.
Before leaving, Nolando passed by Irin and gave a gentlemanly salute: "Oh, thank God, beautiful lady, you did survive." ”
"Well, I was surprised too."
Irin laughed.
Actually, what he wants to say is-
"Norando, I'm very surprised that you survived."
After the others left.
Click-
The meeting door was locked again.
Well?
Wait a minute.
Only then did Irin notice that behind the bandage man, there was a man with black hair standing all the time.
From beginning to end, the man did not say a word, hiding in the crowd.
It was only when everyone had left that the man remained in place that he could be considered to have entered Rin's sight.
Irin frowned.
I saw that her fiancé, Kira Robert, had already walked towards her step by step.
"Long time no see."
Irin: "......"
At this time, what kind of character should he use to answer this bloody opening statement?
- "Wow! Long time no see? ”
- "Are you surprised that I survived?" ”
- "You're trying to change wives, aren't you?" ”
Irin filtered through the barren romance in her brain.
At this moment, Irin noticed that the dark-haired man behind Kira Robert was also looking at him with a curious gaze.
Thereupon.
Irin uttered a sentence that made tiramisu unnoticed, took a puff of soot, and coughed violently.
Elizabeth Rin suddenly smiled coldly.
With one hand on his hips, he pointed to the nose of the dark-haired man behind the governor's back.
"Is it because of this damn man?"
Admiral Tiramisu: "Ahem, ahem! ”
Brunette: "? ”
Governor of the Navy: "? ”
Everyone was instantly confused.
But it seems that in this world, the sentimental spirit is not too advanced thinking, Tiramisu coughed for a while, and soon understood: "Ahem, Lady Elizabeth, I think you should have misunderstood, the relationship between the Governor and Amakusa Harushiro's advisor is not what you think." ”
It's good that this tiramisu didn't speak, and as soon as he opened his mouth, everyone looked at Admiral Tiramisu with strange eyes.
"Oh? What do you see me doing? Tiramisu took a long puff of his cigarette and calmed down before explaining, "Lady Elizabeth, let me introduce you, this is an adventurer from the Oriental Seas, Rear Admiral Harushiro Amakusa, who also serves as the top advisor to the Imperial Navy. ”
Yoh?
Irin was a little surprised.
I didn't expect Tiramisu to be very avant-garde.
However, in just one sentence, Yi Rin didn't really want to make any trouble, but in this way, he roughly tested whether he knew the black-haired man behind the governor with the normal "Elizabeth Rin character".
In Irin's impression, isn't it normal for a woman to lose her temper and play tricks or something?
There is no sense of disobedience at all.
The man who was called "Amakusa Harushiro" by Tiramisu had the same expression, lowering his head slightly, and there was a thoughtful look in his eyes.
Governor: "Just come back." ”
Yi Rin still didn't give up: "Is it that I can't come back, your soul is happier?" ”
"Nope."
"Who are you fooling! It is said that a man's mouth is a deceitful ghost, will the old lady believe it? ”
“……”
"And! People have been missing for a whole month, why don't you come to me? You have no conscience, do you know how my mother spent this month? Oh God, what a time to look back on! ”
"Good work."
"Huh? A sentence of hard work to send the old lady away? Do you still take your fiancée seriously? I think you should go to Kushiro behind you. ”
“……”
Tiramisu corrected, "It's Harushiro Amakusa, Lady Elizabeth." ”
Irin completely took on the role, like a shrew scolding the street, pointing to the governor's bandaged nose and talking non-stop.
The governor had a very good temper, and even asked and answered, and when he could not answer, he was silent, and he was like a poor little sufferer.
In just one minute, Yi Rin couldn't wait to try all the bloody lines in his impression.
At this moment, Tiramisu and the others looked at each other, their expressions changed slightly, and Tiramisu, who was also a woman, reached out to stop the angry Irin.
"Beautiful Lady Elizabeth, you have thought too much, the Governor has not thought about tea and dinner during the time of your disappearance, and has also issued a reward, even if it is a pirate, as long as he can bring you back to London, he can forgive all your sins, which is already a very merciful practice."
"Oh?" Irin glanced at Tiramisu.
Seeing that the sharp mouth of "difficult Elizabeth Rin" finally stopped, the corners of Tiramisu's mouth twitched slightly, and he quickly pulled Irein out of the door and comforted: "Believe me, Lord Governor is too tired during this time, if it weren't for the search for Ms. Elizabeth's whereabouts, Lord Governor would not have done this." ”
For the governor's makeup, Irin didn't dare to ask more.
When asked, it will definitely be revealed.
Therefore, after messing around and getting the information he wanted, Yi Rin didn't continue to stir it up without knowing what to do, but just hugged his hands and snorted, his expression was very in place.
is a beautiful lady with resentment.
Then.
Amakusa Harushiro stepped forward, with an elegant smile on his face, squinting slightly, moving slowly, and reaching for Irin's palm with one hand, as if to give a standard kiss.
"Nice to meet you, beautiful lady."
Elizabeth Rin slapped Amakusa Harushiro's palm away: "Get out!" I'm not happy! ”
Governor: "......"
Three generals: "......"
Harushiro Amakusa: "......"
After saying that, Elizabeth Rin ignored everyone who was frozen in place, and angrily lifted the hem of her skirt and rushed out of the conference room, along the way, no one dared to stop a step.
As soon as he walked out of the Navy Headquarters, Irin's expression full of anger suddenly changed, and it was replaced by a thoughtful expression with a slight frown.
"It seems like something is in trouble now."
Ten minutes later.
Irin waited for Ruth with nothing to do.
Suddenly.
A somewhat helpless voice came from behind.
"You really don't give face, you just made my blood bar drop."
As for the voice coming from behind him, Irin was not surprised.
Turning around, Irein saw that not far away, Amakusa Harushiro was still smiling like he had been before, with a straight posture, standing behind Irin.
Irin smiled kindly, "Who used that crappy way of temptation?" Also kiss the hand? Hehe, I didn't slap you in the face, it's already very face-saving. ”
Amakusa Haushiro shook his head slightly: "Change places?" ”
Irin shook his head, his smile unchanged: "No, as the Governor's fiancée, if she runs away with a strange man somewhere else, it is easy to spread some gossip." If I didn't guess wrong, this identity should still be familiar to many people when it walks out of the streets and alleys. ”
After a moment of silence.
Amakusa Harushiro took the initiative to send out an invitation: "Gu Tianqing." ”
After a few seconds.
Irin's communication list.
One more name.
But to be honest, no apostle would naively think that the "friends" added to the mailing list are really "good friends who never leave them", and the apostles who are really so simple-minded will not live to the present.
In his previous life, Irin's enemies had even been added to the list face-to-face, just to make it easier to confirm at any time what year, month, day, and time the enemy had died.
It's such a simple communication function, whether it's Irin or Gu Tianqing, they won't think too much.
After adding friends to each other.
The two chatted quietly on the street, and their movements and demeanors were very natural.
Gu Tianqing smiled slightly: "During this time, I have also had the pleasure of in-depth communication with several real noblewomen, and I have noticed that as long as it is a noble woman who has undergone professional etiquette training, when she is standing, she will subconsciously adduct her non-weight-bearing feet about 30 degrees, so you give me a feeling ......"
"It's not like a woman of this era, or maybe it's not like a woman at all."
Irin's expression remained the same: "I didn't ask you how you found out?" ”
Gu Tianqing chuckled: "I probably guessed that you wouldn't ask, so it would be more sincere for me to take the initiative to bring it up." From the fact that your eyes widened a little after listening to what I said just now, it can be seen that you have accepted my sincerity. ”
Irin lowered his head: "Micro-expressions? ”
Gu Tianqing shook his head: "It's not such a professional thing, it's just that my personal experience is a little special, and I have formed some small habits of observing people, which is not worth mentioning." ”
Irin smiled: "Are you sure it's okay to reveal your hole cards so quickly?" ”
"At the very least, we're allies, aren't we?"
"Not necessarily......"
Yi Rin and Gu Tianqing looked at each other in the air.
The two were silent for a few more seconds.
From each other's eyes, they all saw a trace of hidden surprise.
The conversation between the two, even if it sounded to the other apostles, would feel inexplicable, and they could not understand whether the relationship between the two was strangers or acquaintances.
However, the dialogue between smart people directly omits the beginning, omits the process of introducing and getting to know each other, and goes straight to the point.
For example, it's like what Li Erpang once said: In the relationship between men and women, it's not a dinner that goes straight to the opening of the room, it's just a hooligan.
Although this is just a joke, it is clear that Yi Rin and Gu Tianqing have no time to play hooligans.
(Li Erpang: I ??? )
Soon.
Gu Tianqing was the first to break the silence for a few seconds: "I think you ...... just now Sappo, should have found out too? ”
"Discovery? What was found? Irin blinked.
Gu Tianqing was stunned at first, then shook her head and smiled: "Your fiancé is a little weird." To be precise, the entire Navy is very eccentric. ”
Irin blinked, "Really? The weather is so nice today. ”
Gu Tianqing smiled slightly: "See you later." ”
Yi Rin nodded: "You can talk." ”
Right now.
Irein had seen Ruth's sneaky figure coming this way.
Gu Tianqing had already turned around, didn't say a word, and re-entered the naval headquarters.
I believe that with his identity, it is not easy to find a reason to sneak out and have such a brief conversation with Irin.
After all, everyone is currently playing their own identities, and there shouldn't be too much interaction between the characters, so it's better not to show up.
"Gu Tianqing......?"
Irin whispered the name and threw an inquiring look at Ruth.
Ruth made a "O**K" gesture secretly.
"I'll talk about it later."
Irin took a breath, and Didi hailed a carriage, like a young lady dressed up, and returned to Swan Castle in style.
Along.
Irin was silent.
Thinking about everything he had seen in the Navy headquarters.
Wrong.
Something is really wrong.
Especially that one...... Governor.
Yi Rin's stitched together various bloody lines just now, although it was an inspiration, temporarily showed off his lame acting skills and went to show off.
But in fact, Irin's own considerations.
The more she thought about it, the more strange and gloomy Irin's expression became.
In the cramped carriage, Ruth's heart fluttered, swaying as the horse galloped.
Hey?
Isn't this a good place?
Why does this vibration always give people a pleasant sense of rhythm?
Ruth was about to say something, but when she looked up, she noticed that there was something wrong with Irin's expression.
"Huh? What's wrong? Is your fiancé bad? What kind of person is he? ”
Irin heard Ruth's voice.
The gloomy expression soon eased a lot.
Whether it was for the "Governor" or Gu Tianqing, it made Irin feel that this matter was starting to get tricky.
"If he's a 'normal person,' maybe it's not bad."
Irin suddenly said this.
Ruth looked confused.
After returning to the Kasbah.
As soon as the old father Swan saw Irin coming back, he pestered Irin to ask about the reunion with his fiancé and his mental journey.
For the old father who pushed the "woman" into the fire pit, Yi Rin naturally didn't have a good face, and directly snapped the door shut and locked it.
But ten minutes later, Ruth walked out again with a helpless look on her face, and wandered around the castle.
in the room.
Irin's eyes closed in contemplation.
In his mind, Irin constructs a virtual whiteboard.
Navy, Pirate, Faction, Cursed, Calypso, Trade, Governor, Main Quest, Three Admirals, Emperor Wang, Harushiro Amakusa, Elizabeth Rin, Nicholas Zhao, Indiana Jones, ...... and the "Demon King".
Seemingly unrelated nouns gradually formed an intricate relationship diagram in Irin's thoughts.
