In this era where information is largely face-to-face, it's not difficult to find someone, especially if the other person isn't deliberately evasive.

Carmen simply said that she was a trainee reporter for the newspaper and needed to let the citizens know about the sailors, and she was greeted heroically in the docks.

It's the Great Depression, it's hard to do anything, the factory has no business, the employees are dismissed, the employees are laid off, the consumption is reduced, the consumption is reduced, the store is closed, and the store is closed, and the supply of the factory is reduced, and the vicious circle is triggered.

Most of the ships on the docks are transporting raw materials for factories or goods for shops, and without these two pillars of industry, the shipping industry has also ushered in its own winter.

A large number of unemployed sailors and refugees crowded the docks, and whenever a ship came by, groups of sailors would surround them, asking if they needed a crew.

Most of them won't be chosen, just wandering the docks like lonely ghosts, just a glass of cheapest beer, a piece of toast, and they'll know all your questions.

He only found two sailors, and soon, Carmen asked who he was looking for.

David Bailey, a legendary veteran sailor, was a second officer on a warship as a young man, piloting warships and defeating many notorious pirates.

After retiring from the army due to injury, Bailey worked as a captain for the Marine Company and was well known among the sailors in the docks, where many people knew that he had a collecting penchant.

With the address she had obtained, Carmen easily found a thatched hut by the sea, which was where the old Bailey lived.

It stands to reason that with the experience of the old Bailey, even if he is not rich and rich, at least he will not be worse than the middle class.

But in fact, the simplicity of Old Bailey's residence made Carmen, who was accustomed to shabby, a little suspicious that he had come to the wrong place.

Knock knock...

Glancing at the dried salted fish hanging outside, Carmen knocked on the door.

"Ahem, who?"

With the sound of coughing, an old man with gray hair and crutches opened the door.

Seeing Carmen standing outside the door, the old man held a cigarette pouch and asked, "Young man, who are you looking for?" ”

"I'm coming for you, Mr. Bailey."

Carmen raised the bread and cheese that Jan was carrying, and said softly, "Are you welcome me in and sitting?" ”

"Come in."

Old Bailey limped inside on crutches.

Carmen followed her into the house, only to find that it was better than he had thought.

The room is full of shelves, large and small, with many old objects.

Vintage pocket watches, vintage monoculars, vintage compasses, vintage firecrackers, vintage chain mail, vintage harps...

None of the things on the shelves are as modern as they are, and Carmen even saw a bust of the god of the sea in the corner.

"This is it!"

In the corner of the shelf, Carmen saw what she was looking for, an oval, pit-sized badge.

On the front of the badge, a lifelike wolf's head is depicted, and Carmen knows this is what he's looking for.

"Don't move..."

Carmen was just about to get the badge when the voice of Old Bailey came to her ears.

Old Bailey, on crutches and holding a silver revolver in his hand, whispered, "Don't touch anything that doesn't belong to you." ”

"Sir, introduce myself, my name is Ishind Carmen, do you have any impression of the name?" Carmen didn't look back, just stood in front of the shelves and spoke.

"Carmen?"

Old Bailey read two sentences, and found that the name was really familiar, but he couldn't remember it.

"You're my distant nephew?" Old Bailey thought about it for a long time, but couldn't think of any other possibility.

Carmen's face was a little dark, and he said his name to remind old Bailey that the word Carmen engraved on the back of the badge was from his uncle.

"Isn't it?"

Seeing Carmen's reaction, old Bailey was even more puzzled, and he couldn't think of where he had heard this name.

"I'll cut it short, my name is Carmen, and the back of this badge is engraved with the word Carmen, because it's our family's coat of arms. I came here this time to discuss with you and redeem this family crest from you. Carmen got tired of the and said bluntly.

"Oh, I remember, Carmen, there's that name on the badge, no..."

Old Bailey suddenly realized at first, then he figured it out, and said angrily: "Maybe this badge belonged to you before, but now it belongs to me and belongs to Douglas Bailey, if you want to take it back, don't even think about it!" ”

"I'm here with great sincerity, I don't know how much it cost you to buy it, but I'm sure it won't cost more than a dollar, now I can give you two dollars, and then you give it to me, it's good for you and me."

Old Bailey didn't want to lose his badge, and Carmen didn't want to.

In all fairness, for such an old man, he really didn't want to use special means, unless he was forced to do so.

"Wake up, boy, when I was galloping on the sea, you were still drinking milk in your mother's womb." Old Bailey raised his gun, and the act of sending off the guest was exposed.

Carmen nodded slightly, though he didn't want to admit it, but things always went on the bad side, and sometimes the choice was not in our hands.

But this is not a bad thing, but it makes Carmen breathe a sigh of relief.

After all, two dollars is not a small amount for him, and if it weren't for his uneasy conscience, he would have wanted to get things back with an empty glove white wolf.

"Goodbye, Mr. Bailey."

Carmen bowed her head slightly, turned away, and walked cleanly.

Old Bailey stood at the door, panting and picking up the revolver, and said loudly: "Don't let me see you again, or I'll beat your ass and blossom." ”

"Failed?"

At the same time, Wang Xu, who was using a silly girl to monitor Carmen, couldn't help frowning secretly for the development of the plot.

The protagonists are invincible, and in the face of Carmen's million-dollar luck, there is nothing that cannot be done.

Why was Old Bailey not suppressed by luck, but instead gained the upper hand in the confrontation with the protagonist, isn't this old man a simple character?

"Open!"

Wang Xu touched his temple with his hand and looked at Old Bailey with his third eye.

In his eyes, Old Bailey's luck condensed and did not dissipate, shrouded in the top of his head and turned into a magic wand, and the dark purple pillar of qi luck smoke, piercing Wang Xu's eyes hurt.

"Shhh

Wang Xu gasped, the luck of Old Bailey was so high that he was still above Bertie, who was suspected of being the heroine.

In terms of numbers, Bertie's luck is 10,000, Carmen's luck is million, and Bailey's luck is 100,000.

You must know that Wang Xu is so tossed in the magic mobile phone plane, and the final blessing of luck is only 100,000, and the identity of Old Bailey is probably not simple.

The incarnation of the mighty, the reincarnated strong, or the supporting role of fate.

From the point of view of luck, the degree to which Old Bailey is loved by heaven and earth is above Bertie, who is suspected of being the heroine, but it is Bertie's 10,000 points of luck, which is a bit unworthy of the protagonist Carmen.

Except for Buck, who showed the appearance of early death, all those who were involved with Carmen were not low in popularity. Now there is an old Bailey with 100,000 points of luck, what does this mean, is this old Bailey going to occupy an important position in Carmen's growth trajectory? ”

Wang Xu knows that there is nothing simple around the protagonist, even if it is a mouse, it may be the son of a great existence.

So he can conclude that the role of Old Bailey is definitely not ordinary, and ordinary people have no right to play with the protagonist.

On the contrary, Bertie, who is suspected of being the heroine, is a bit unlike the heroine in Wang Xu's opinion, because her luck is much lower than Carmen's, and a normal heroine, even if she is not as lucky as the male protagonist, she must have twelve out of ten.

Bertie is good, 10,000 points of luck, it's just like a joke, even if it's a supporting role, it can't be so low.

"Something is wrong, why is Bertie's luck so low, is it that in the predetermined trajectory, Bertie is not the other half of Carmen at all, just a memory when he was young and ignorant? It could really be like this, only Bertie is not the real heroine, which can explain why her luck is so low. However, Bertie and Carmen seem to be a couple, what happened? ”

Wang Xu fell into deep thought, at present, the place that can be called an accident is the matter of Carmen being imprisoned.

If this world didn't have him, Carmen would still be in prison, after all, he didn't interfere in the plot too much, according to the proper development trajectory, Tom will still borrow money from Carmen to let his younger brother go to school, and Carmen will also steal Henry's money, thus leading to the novice area boss Anders, and then transform in a desperate situation to pave the way for the next chapter.

The only place where he intervened was when Bertie wanted to ransom someone, he lent Bertie $200.

Think about it, what would Bertie do if she didn't have the $200?

She will definitely do whatever it takes to get Carmen out.

If Bertie can dance for Carmen, he can dance for someone else in the same situation.

Not everyone is a decent man like Wang Xu, and in his normal trajectory, Bertie is likely to have paid more to save Carmen, which caused a rift between the two, which makes sense.

"No wonder luck is so low, Bertie may not be the heroine, not even a supporting role, just a tragic figure in the early stage."

Wang Xu was excited in his eyes, and whispered: "It turns out that the word luck can explain so many things, it seems that this world is more exciting than I thought." However, in this story, Bertie's ending may not be too good! ”
