Irin and Ruth looked at each other.

Look at each other.

Charlie?

HMS Queen Floor Charlie?

Why didn't you see each other for a few days, and then turned into a little guy in a hidden underground tavern in London?

Although Charlie in front of him was beaten with a blue nose and swollen face for some reason, and he has long lost his former obscene face, this tone and tone are clearly that Charlie, no doubt.

Irin reacted as quickly as he could, poked Ruth lightly, and gave her a look.

Ruth instantly understood.

At the moment, Irin's not wearing the "Skeletal Gentleman" outfit.

After a few seconds.

Ruth lowered her voice and asked, "Charlie?" You survived too? ”

Suddenly.

Poor Charlie's eyes widened, and the bruised eye sockets blocked his vision, so that for a while, he did not recognize the familiar first mate in front of him.

But as Ruth spoke, Charlie quickly came back to his senses and was shocked: "Lu, First Officer Louis?" Woo woo, humble Charlie finally sees you again-"

Charlie wept and screamed and pounced on Ruth.

The corners of Ruth's eyes twitched slightly, she was determined not to let a filthy pirate pounce on her, and without saying a word, kicked Charlie out of the air.

Although Ruth's combat power on the panel is not high, she is also an order of magnitude higher than Charlie of the "floor".

So this kick directly kicked Charlie a few meters away, unequivocally.

Bang!

Charlie's movement was not small, and the entire tavern was quiet for a moment, and the drunken pirates turned their heads and looked at Charlie, who fell to the ground and knocked the tables and chairs to pieces, and paused for a moment.

Oh, it turned out that the waiter was beaten.

That's fine.

The cheerful atmosphere in the tavern paused for a moment, and then continued to rise, and the connection was smooth and not the slightest dissonance.

Five minutes later.

Poor Charlie rubbed his underdeveloped chest muscles and came to Irin and Ruth again with two glasses of rum on his face.

Charlie took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, so he simply sat down in this corner and told the first mate Louis, who had not been seen for a long time, his sad story full of blood and tears.

Although it has been a long time, in fact, since the destruction of the Queen in the hurricane, it was only a few days ago, and it is not too long.

That storm completely destroyed the Queen.

However, after Irin and Calypso reached an agreement and signed a contract, the storm subsided, and some of the pirates who were lifted into the air were lucky enough to survive.

Some people hold the wreckage of the Queen, others hold empty rum barrels, drifting across the ocean.

And Charlie was lucky enough to be washed ashore by the current.

On the shore, Charlie was lucky enough to join Sachs and others, and traveled all the way to London.

Just yesterday, Charlie, along with several sailors on the former Queen, found the "Gilded Mud" tavern and temporarily worked here in search of a livelihood.

This...... It's really a bit of a coincidence.

Yi Rin vaguely remembered that Charlie's luck value was quite high, could it be that this was the reason why Charlie, whose attributes were unsightly, survived?

"What's the matter with your face?"

Irin asked with a smile.

"Huh? Dear First Officer Louis, this ...... Be? ”

Charlie spoke passionately about his history of blood and tears, but Irin remained silent, and it was only then that Charlie remembered to ask who was sacred next to Ruth.

Why does it sound familiar?

A question mark crept up in Charlie's mind.

Ruth was expressionless and had a straight face: "If you don't want to die, don't ask what you shouldn't ask, what's the matter with your face?" ”

Charlie looked down.

I saw that under the table, Louis's first mate's leg was directly on the other person's leg, which was very weird.

He suddenly remembered the experience on the ship, and suddenly realized when he boarded.

No wonder First Officer Louis and the great Skeletal Gentleman Captain are always in the same room, no wonder the captain and the first mate have such a close relationship, so so, so so, so so!

The quick-witted Charlie has already seen through everything!

It turns out that this man with clear eyebrows turned out to be Louis's first mate's brand new boyfriend!

Thinking about breaking through this layer, Charlie subconsciously shivered, and quickly nodded: "Yes, yes, don't ask, Charlie doesn't ask, Charlie understands, Charlie understands." ”

Irin: "? ”

Ruth: "? ”

At this time, Charlie squirmed, and then the reason for this face was revealed.

Actually, the reason is nothing special.

Charlie thought that he had been on the ship of the Skeletal Gentleman, very awesome, penniless, but he longed for rum, so he gathered Xiao Sa and others to drink a meal of overlord wine in the gilded rose.

Unexpectedly, just as he was about to rob the rum, a group of tall muscular men rushed out of the backstage on the spot, and pressed Charlie and others to the ground with three punches and two kicks.

I don't know if it was to make an example of the Queen, but a certain crew member who had also stayed on the Queen was brutally beaten to death, and then nailed it to the wall, becoming a beautiful specimen on the wall of the "Gilded Mud", which was very scary.

And Charlie and Sachs were so frightened that they trembled, so it was logical to stay here to work, after all, they could take care of their meals and survive here.

Ruth showed a look that was indeed the case: "What about the others?" ”

Charlie sullen: "Washing dishes in the background." ”

Irin probably understood.

He didn't expect Charlie to survive that storm.

Should it be said that Calypso was the only mercy?

Could it be for the sake of his own face?

Because of the loss of the Queen, the two columns on Irin's captain's panel, the ship and the crew, have been locked and cannot be opened.

Without a boat, you are not considered a qualified captain, and certain functions are restricted.

As for the crew?

Irin wasn't worried.

It's hard to find a six-legged crew, but a five-legged pirate crew, isn't it all over the streets?

However, from Charlie's experience, it can be seen that the owner of this underground tavern should not be simple.

Otherwise, even the crew of the "skeleton gentleman" will be killed directly, and no face will be given at all.

As for the origin of this tavern, Irin was also a little more curious.

But now is not the time to get to the bottom of it.

Irin took a sip of rum, and a rush of heat rushed from her throat to her stomach.

"Charlie, who do you think is the most well-informed of the people in this tavern?"

Charlie rubbed his bruised face and said with a smile: "Every pirate is very well-informed, as long as you have ......"

As he spoke, Charlie's index finger and thumb rubbed slightly, making a gesture that everyone understood.

"Oh-"

Irin let out a long sigh.

Ruth: "......"

There was silence for a few seconds.

Irin was actually using her senses to observe everyone in the tavern.

After a moment, Irin pointed to a corner, "That guy, do you know?" ”

Charlie and Ruth looked at Irin at the same time.

In the corner next to the entrance, the lights were even dimmer, casting a dappled shadow.

In the shadows, an old man with a slightly chubby body, gray hair, babbling words in his mouth, and a few smirks from time to time, sat in the corner and got drunk alone, and the shadows were in pairs.

"Oh, you said that guy—" Charlie twitched the corners of his mouth with a look of disdain, "Oh, it's said to be a regular customer here, known as 'Gibbs who doesn't do drafts', hey! ”

Gibbs who doesn't type drafts?

Irin and Ruth looked at each other again.

Sounds that awesome?

Even a title?

Ruth couldn't help but ask, "Why is it called 'Gibbs who doesn't draft'?" ”

Charlie smiled: "He's good at bragging, blowing like the real thing, no need to make a draft!" However, old Gibbs came and went like those, and after a long time, others got tired of listening to it, so no one liked to drink with old Gibbs anymore. ”

"For example?"

Charlie suddenly leaned closer, lowered his voice, and was mysterious: "Gibbs once drank too much, and actually said that his former captain was swallowed by a sea monster, and then they arrived at the end of the world, the other side of the abyss, and brought their captain back to life. ”

The corners of Ruth's eyebrows twitched, and she was quite speechless: "This is awesome, it's really excessive." You say yes, right? It's mine...... Rin. Well??? ”

Ruth was about to share her thoughts with Irin after listening to this awesome feeling, but when she looked back, she found that Irin had disappeared from her without knowing when.

"Hmph~yo-heh~"

in the corner.

Gibbs hummed under his breath.

Every now and then, I take a sip of rum and get drunk between my eyebrows.

"Gibbs?"

Suddenly.

An androgynous voice, full of enchanting magnetism, rang in Gibbs's ears.

Old Gibbs raised his eyelids slightly, glanced in the direction from which the voice had come, and lowered his head again.

It's as if nothing in the world has more appeal than this glass of rum on the table.

"If you don't speak, you just acquiesce? Oh, I have admired the name for a long time. ”

Gibbs's heart moved.

This move made him can't help but burp: "Hiccup~ Have you heard my story?" ”

Irin sat down across from Gibbs and shook his head with a smile, "No, I've heard of your bragging. ”

Gibbs: "......"

Irin added earnestly, "Moreover, your face is full of stories. ”

Gibbs smiled and drank the rum from his glass.

"Charlie ~ refill."

Irin beckons Charlie from afar and asks Charlie to fill Gibbs' rum.

Ruth and Charlie found out that Irin, at some point, sat across from "Gibbs, who doesn't make drafts".

"Hiccup ~ You're a pirate?"

Gibbs stared at the rum on the table, which was almost overflowing, and finally became interested in Irin.

Gibbs can say no to anyone, but not to a full dose of rum.

"Sort of."

Gibbs smiled coldly: "But I have never seen such a kind pirate, nor have I ever seen such a generous pirate." ”

"Oh?"

Gibbs took a sip and drunkenly pointed to the door: "Little Peggy is in this tavern, he cheated a lot of money in the name of the tavern owner, and he also stole a lot of money with skillful methods, hey, if you hadn't cut off his finger today, that greedy kid wouldn't have lived for a few days, and he would have died here sooner or later, he underestimated the pirate Lak." ”

After a pause, Gibbs opened the chatterbox, and without stopping, he continued: "You cut off little Peggy's finger so that he could no longer steal, and gave him enough gold coins to live again...... Hey, that kid is probably crazy now, just two fingers in exchange for a shiny gold coin. ”

Irin realizes that the dirty kid who wants to steal his things is called Peggy.

But it didn't matter, it was just Irin who did it.

Old Gibbs drank all the rum from his glass, and he was so dazed that he couldn't remember how many it was.

Belch~

It seems to be a bit of a top!

Gibbs pointed at Irin and grinned, "Anyone here is more like a pirate than you!" The life of a pirate is not as simple as you think, if you want to play with the little kids, go home early and drink two more sips of milk, is what you should do, instead of thinking about the boring adventure life all day long. Hiccup~ The old man is full, go back~~"

As he spoke, Gibbs staggered to his feet, glanced at Irin with disdain, shook his head, and hummed a pentatonic song again.

Bite.

Irin flicked his fingers.

With a crisp sound, a gold coin fell into Gibbs's empty glass.

"I think old Gibbs can have another drink."

In an instant, Gibbs sat down again, clutching his glass as if he were afraid that Irin would regret it.
