Sally removed the hat from the captain's head and placed it on her head. The hat didn't fit her head, it was a few laps bigger, and it looked funny like a clown, but Sally didn't care, she triumphantly pulled up the hem of her skirt and spun it around, looking excited.

However, the old captain, who had been taken off his captain's hat, not only did not get angry, but squeezed a happy smile, touched the bald hair on the top of his head, and laughed.

"Yes, I'm the captain." Sally smiled, nodded as if confirming again, looked at Li Yi, and then turned her gaze to the locust, straightened her chest, and blinked.

The locust was silent, sullen vigorously, and his face became more and more ugly.

"Looks like a good fit." Li Yi squinted, smiled, and praised.

Sally smiled before returning the hat to the captain. She nodded to the captain, and the face that had been smiling suddenly became serious.

"Thank you, Tom." Sally returned the hat to the old captain, straightened her back, and looked more serious, even a little more cold, and looked like a completely different person.

The old captain also put away his smile and said nothing. To the surprise of the locusts, this old man, who had always regarded himself very highly and whose dignity was higher than the bridge of his nose, actually knelt down, stretched out his hands, and solemnly took the hat.

Of course, he still has words in his mouth.

"No, it's my pleasure to help you." The captain said.

Sally smiled slightly, let go of her hand, turned her face, and the indifference in her body suddenly disappeared.

"Mr. Lee." She jumped a few steps and came to Li Yi's side again. "It's abrupt and a little late to say this, but I still have to say it."

Sally took a few steps back and said, "Welcome to my ship, Mr. Lee." ”

"Your ship?" When the locust, who had been staying aside, heard this, he couldn't hold it anymore, and he jerked his head up, almost hitting the roof. "What do you call your ship?"

"Boss." She turned and looked at the locust, grinning. "What does the boss think?"

The locust's eyes rolled, and his gaze circled back and forth between the dozen or so people who suddenly appeared inside and outside the house. Locusts are not stupid. I don't know why, but it's clear that these people are now under the control of Sally, the little girl.

No matter how brave he was, he was only a horseman, and it was impossible to fight them on the ship anyway. What's more, now the way out and fate of this ship are not in their own hands.

I'm afraid that this little girl's actions just now were also to demonstrate to herself.

After a little calculation in his heart, the locust decided to give in. After all, the one who knows the times is a handsome man, he is not a reckless man, and there is nothing to be ashamed of when he retreats in the face of difficulties.

"Don't be so polite." The face of the locust mites also melted at this time, like a glacier dissolving. He smiled what he thought was gentle. "Sally, we're kind of old friends on the ship, and we've worked together for a while, haven't we?"

"Working together?" Sally cocked her fingers, put them to her lips, thought for a moment, and said, "You mean, picked up my business in the Philippines?" ”

"So you remember." The locust's tone slowed down. "That's easy to say, you remember, then we are also fateful, and we met on this ship again."

"Fate?" Sally smiled. "Boss, you can still remember these little things in your busy schedule, it's really hard, that's right, boss

If there is fate, it is fate. ”

"That year, if I'm not mistaken." Locust racked his brains and began to recall that when he met this little girl, he was in an island city in the Philippines, and he was extremely depressed at that time.

"You're twelve, right?" The locusts began to recall. "If I'm not mistaken, you were dressed in black then, just like now."

Sally also seemed to be caught up in the memory, her eyes lit up.

"Black? It's black. Sally's tone softened. At that time, I was naked, and I only had a black blanket on me, and I met you when I came out. ”

"How do you go back to the Philippines?" Li Yi was curious. "Looks like you're related to this young lady?"

"Ah, that's right." The locust scratched his head, he looked at Sally's pupils, and little by little the memories came to his mind.

"You were a soldier then." Sally's eyes lit up.

"No, I'm out of the military." The locust shook his head. "He wasn't a soldier anymore."

"You are." Sally pouted, looking a little unhappy. "What I saw at the time was what it was. A burly soldier suddenly appeared in front of me. ”

The locust sighed helplessly.

"I'm just a deserter." He did wear a military uniform that day, but twenty years had passed since the day he was a soldier, and a soldier who had been more than twenty years old could not talk about a straight military posture at all, at least when he met this girl he had never met, the locust had only decadence and depression in his heart at that time.

"It's kind of ridiculous now that I don't have to run around like that, even when I was running away. No one will come to take me at all, we are just pawns abandoned by the government. ”

"You're going to a place, either there's an old friend there, or there's a place that you can miss." Li Yi suddenly interjected and came in.

"The Philippines must mean something to you." Li Yi knows that people don't make meaningless actions for no reason, and sometimes what seems to be an unintentional move is actually governed by their own subconscious.

"No, it's just a distraction." Locust said. "It was a special day for me, I came out of my house and wandered along the coastline for three days and three nights, I ran out of cash and cigarettes, and the last person I met was this old captain Tom."

The locust turned his gaze to Tom intentionally or unintentionally, compared to the old stubble uncle back then, the old adult captain who grew beard now looked more majestic, but in front of Sally, he had no dignity at all. This alarmed the locusts.

You know, Old Tom was a good black and white player. When the locust thought of this, his heart was even more unfair, he didn't know what else he would face.

"The boat was resting on the harborside, and Tom, the old fellow, snuck out to smoke a cigarette, and bumped into me. He begged me not to tell the ship's staff, for a stupid and ridiculous reason. The old guy had just finished teaching the sailors, but he didn't expect his addiction to cigarettes to be the first to commit it. ”

When the locust said this, the corners of his mouth curled, and his face twitched and smiled.

"He patted my chest and told me to get on the boat, and as long as I didn't tell the bunnies about it, he took care of my food, clothing, and shelter. After I came up, I learned that the fleet was going to the Philippines to do a hoarding business, and I didn't know what this shipment was at that time. ”

"The ghost sent the gods to the Philippines, and they met this little girl." The locust looked at Sally. "Say with this ship

The ship was also the fate formed at that time. I only heard about it before, but then I realized that it turned out that there is indeed moisture in shipping in Southeast Asia. ”

Saying this, the locust mocked a little, while the old captain on the side lowered his hat and blackened his face.

"Boat?" Li Yi asked curiously. "What's so special about this ship."

"That's nothing." The locust replied without thinking. "It's just an ordinary cruise ship, although hoarding goods is a bit of smuggling and gross profit, it's just some commonplace, which is understandable."

As he said this, the locust's gaze swept quickly over the crowd outside the door, and although some of them had changed their faces and were no longer on the ship, he saw many familiar faces.

"However, after that time, I realized that it was the same in the waters of Southeast Asia, on the islands, and even in the cities on land. There are so many hidden things behind it, not just a pool of sewage in the army, the world is far more complicated than I thought. ”

"The owner of this ship turned out to be a drug lord organization. Originally, this ship did not carry white goods, but the line it took was a cover for the real poison ship, that is, the beacon ship. ”

The locust said slowly.

"There are hooks on the ship that are specially used to seduce the slivers, and these hooks will attract attention when they pass the customs, and they will attract attention when they enter the line.

Li Yi listened, and his heart brightened. The so-called hook is a special set for the customs police, which looks like a prohibited commodity, but in fact it is a cover-up for people's eyes, and as a strategy to deal with surprise inspections, after which the drug carrier can successfully pass through the customs and break in from the high seas.

If what the locust said is correct, then this ship is doing black business in the name of merchant ships and pleasure ships.

And here, Sally said that the ship was herself, and the meaning of it couldn't help but send chills down the spine.

The locust relaxed his vigilance and sighed: "Who would have thought that time has passed, and it should have been on my territory, but it was still on this ship, but I didn't expect it." ”

Outside, the thick black shrouded the ocean, and the sea water splashed with thick ink, and it was washed away as much as possible on this white and somewhat yellowed pleasure boat. But in the eyes of the locust, it is no longer young. Just like himself.

Sally looked at the locust, the corners of her mouth were smeared with oil, and she smiled a little sadly. "That's right, it's this ship, and it's really interesting. Boss, at that time I was helpless, I was going to starve to death on the beach by the sea, and the person who saved me was you, and this boat. ”

The locust stared into Sally's eyes, and he saw something different. For Sally, this was the exact opposite.

"You saved me then." Sally's expression was no longer frivolous, but became serious and dignified, and even a little cowardly, which made Li Yi look at it, almost overlapping with Sally's demeanor when she appeared in the morning.

"Give me food and clothing, and help me get a job on the ship. I should be grateful to you, and I am still today, but boss, you probably didn't think about what would happen today. ”

"All I said was that you should have left here and lived inland." The locust lowered its head. "But I didn't expect that many years later, you would still be on this ship, doing the same thing."

Sally's face turned pale.

"The same thing?" She sneered. "The owner...... No, locusts. ”

These two words came out of Sally's mouth to the ears of the locusts, and they sounded very harsh.

"Do you know Sally?"
