Chapter 130: An Inexplicable Relationship
The loss of a person is always sad, especially in such a family that is not rich at all, and the twenty-year-old son will become the breadwinner of the family, and life will soon be better.
"Captain Gordon, my son he ......"
The father in front of him recognized him, and Gordon really felt a little indescribable, because when he saw the person in front of him, he thought of his father and family, which was the softest place in his heart.
"Sir, your son Alvin, who died in the battle with the pirates......"
Alvin's father gritted his teeth, forcibly suppressed his painful expression, and was silent for a long time.
The fact that his son was buried at sea after only three months away from home is really not acceptable to everyone.
"Was he safe when he left?"
It was the only thing he could ask.
Alvin, the sailor who had been broken by a shell during the shelling, had blood all over the cabin, and he could only watch his intestines drag to the ground, dying in despair and pain, tormented.
But how can such words be spoken?
"Sir, he walked peacefully, was hit by a cannon and did not suffer too much. ”
The middle-aged man in front of him had a little moistness in his eyes, but he just nodded: "I know, thank you for bringing back his news." ”
With that, he turned around and prepared to go back to his room.
The sea is inherently dangerous, especially in this era of rampant piracy, and being a sailor is a job with your head tied to your belt.
"Sir!"
Gordon stopped him.
"There are also some of Alvin's legacies here, which we brought back following his wishes. ”
Gordon took out a money bag containing three gold coins and thirty silver coins.
Alvin's father took the money bag, then turned around and went into the house, without saying a word, but when Gordon left with Evan, he could still hear the suppressed crying in the house behind him, and a man of steel couldn't suppress the pain of losing his son.
Gordon's own mood was not at all uncomfortable.
I can't say why, it may be that such a family is shattered, or it may be the man's painful expression, the only thing he can do is to make the family feel better as much as possible, and there is nothing else he can do.
On this day, he walked through the homes of seven of the sailors, and almost every family was prepared that going to sea was a dangerous affair, and no matter how ruthless a person was, he could not help but be sad when he heard the news, and no matter how mean a woman was, he would cry bitterly.
No one paid attention to how much money was in the bag, and just silently accepted it all.
As for the sailor, whose home was in the main town of Carrascar, not in the port of La Guairla, it was nearly ten o'clock in the evening, and the road at night was not easy, and no carriage wanted to go at this time.
Gordon took Alan back to the tavern on the docks, which was almost full, and Gordon ordered a lot of food and ate it in large gulps, which was said to help ease his mood.
The sailors of the Jackdaw had almost all gone home, and the ship was under the watchful eye of the Navy, so soon the rest of the people gathered at the bar.
Mickey, Harry, Jon, and Serena.
Duncan had already left, and just as Gordon was visiting Burton, he left the Jackdaw alone, silently.
He walked very freely, ran directly onto a merchant ship that was about to sail, and then smiled and waved at me. ”
That's how Harry described it to Gordon, and then shook his fist.
"I really can't wait to go up and punch him twice, and say goodbye without saying goodbye, it's really not interesting enough!"
Serena's appearance as a beautiful woman in the tavern really attracted a lot of attention, and some sailors whistled loudly and laughed, but the latter immediately closed his eyes at the first glance, and the tavern was surprisingly quiet.
Gordon has also realized that Serena is extraordinary, but it is really not a good sign for women to get on the boat, it has nothing to do with superstition, the boat is full of young men, women will bring chaos, and there will be a lot of inconvenience, for example, he can't sleep properly in his bed now.
"Let's part here, Serena. ”
Gordon proposed, and he fished the woman out of her cell and took her thousands of miles away in the Caribbean, where no Portuguese would come and arrest her.
"Evan, you heartless man. ”
This sentence instantly attracted the gossip of the people around him, and indeed no one knew if Gordon had reopened the door of the captain's room late one night, and then some detached friendship and not love happened.
"I seem to have seen the captain come out of the survey room alone that night, and it happened to be one ......o'clock in the morning when I was on duty."
Alan whispered to Mickey next to him, drawing Harry's curious glance before leaning over.
"Serena, we speak with our conscience, nothing has happened to us, and it is not a good choice for you to stay on the ship. ”
Gordon wanted to defend something, but Serena's words later made him unable to clear his mind at all.
"Have you forgotten that night? What you told me at the time, you don't even recognize now. ”
She showed a pitiful look, and even squeezed out two tears, which directly corroborated what Alan saw.
Harry's eyes were a little envious, a little angry, envious that Serena was indeed a beauty, and angry because he thought of Gordon leaving him alone in Havana.
"Gordon, how can you be like this! You can't be that kind of person. ”
"What the hell did I do???
With an innocent face, but no one believed it, Serena had the upper hand with Harry's support, and at this time Alan and Mickey were no longer on his side, and Jon, the only one who remained silent, ate silently while everyone was talking, and had eaten up the fattest roast duck.
Gordon pulled Serena aside, turned his back on the others, lowered his voice and asked frantically, "What the hell do you want to do!"
The latter showed a very innocent look: "Evan, I just want to be with you, really." ”
"Even, I can't stand you like this, you know very well that nothing has happened to us. ”
"Are you really sure?"
Serena's eyes flashed with a strange look, and then Gordon looked at her face and leaned over, unable to move at all, only wide-eyed.
The warm red lips touched his lips, and the soft tongue squeezed into his mouth, and in front of everyone, the gang of the Jackdaw, and all the sailors in the tavern, came to kiss passionately.
Alan slapped himself directly in the face, and couldn't bear to look at it, why do almost all beautiful women stick to their captains, it must be because of money, absolutely!
Harry slapped himself on the forehead, and then slowly wiped it off, Gordon's character has completely collapsed, and he is a scumbag who doesn't want to be responsible.
And at this moment, Jon began to sweep a plate of beef.
