"Dad, are you hiding something from me?" Captain Jack and the first and second officers had just weathered the storm at sea and dragged their tired bodies back to their rooms when they were questioned by the oncoming thin crew.

The pace under his feet immediately stopped, and he once again forced a relaxed look of indifference and emphasized: "Third mate Mark! It's your working time, please pay attention to your identity! Call me Captain!"

The thin crew pursed their lips and elongated their voices with a perfunctory look of indifference: "Yes, Captain, but your old man remembers wrong, my name is Mary! Mary Stryker! My mother's name is Emily Stryker! If my subordinates remember correctly, you seem to be called Jack Stryker!

Little Jack was speechless for a moment, and the original ease of expression could not be maintained, and the whole person was listless like a deflated ball.

Looking left and right, he found that there was no one around except the father and daughter, and hurriedly pulled Mary open the door and walked into the house, "Bar" closed the door and locked it, and then sat down in front of the bed, relieved and puzzled at the same time: "Mary, my most beautiful ruby, why do you have such doubts?"

Taking off her hat, her short scarlet shoulder-length hair tied to the top of her head falling like satin, Mary sat casually at her desk fiddling with a pipe carved with dolphin ornaments, and replied: "When the storm came, I went alone to check the corridor, and saw a little beggar and gave him something to eat!"

When little Jack, as a father, heard this, the first thing that came to mind was not the question of beggars, but whether his daughter was bumped into because of this. After getting his daughter completely fine, he asked, "What's wrong with this little bastard???Did he do something shameful to my loveliest ruby?"

Mary put down the action of fiddling with her pipe and shook her head to say no, which made little Jack's heart also relax. Then he told the story of letting the beggars get on board at ten times the price, but they were not allowed to appear in front of people.

This made Mary's heart even more confused, and without waiting for her to ask questions, little Jack, who was too familiar with her motherless daughter since she was a child, took the initiative to explain the reason.

Ma Shuo and Lao Yu arrived almost at the last minute, and when little Jack, who wandered to the entrance and exit section, found that the ship was already two or three kilometers away from the shore. When he learned that they were hiding from the pursuit, it was impossible to retreat, let alone him, even other normal passengers would not be willing.

And at that time, little Jack happened to use the telescope he carried with him to see a group of dark shadows that suddenly appeared on the shore, and he went from being suspicious to helpless to believing the words of the two men in an instant.

But after all, they were hunted down, and looking at the situation on the shore, it was obvious that it was an organized and disciplined strict team. In order to prevent his passenger ship from being affected by the pond fish, little Jack had to choose to let them hide themselves completely, so as not to cause any irreparable disaster to his only livelihood.

There was a brief silence between the father and daughter, and Mary had given him some food. But this is only out of a momentary soft-heartedness, and I am not worried that the other party will disappear without a trace, after all, everyone is now on the boundless sea.

This time, I came to my father, who was the captain, to confirm the matter, and now since it is roughly the same as what the little beggar said, it means that he is not lying.

got up and sat down beside his father, holding the big hands full of vicissitudes, and pursed his lips: "In the next voyage, my daughter will often bring them some food and drink in the name of a crew member." Since it was hunted down, it must have had a lot of energy before, so let's try not to offend if we can!"

"Why, I'll bring you something to eat again!" he took the package behind him and opened it, half of it was fresh water, and the rest was mostly necessities such as cooked meat and fruits, and there were some scattered coins and change.

Originally, I saw that the little beggar was booing, and his face turned red, but it quickly returned to its original state, and it was now early in the morning, and it was very difficult to see the inconspicuous rosiness of a person's face by the moonlight. And Ma Shuo was even more attracted by the food in an instant, and he didn't look at the other party's expression carefully at all.

Although he was holding on to the railing with one hand and ready to run away at any time, the way he swallowed his saliva still betrayed his truest thoughts.

It's just that there are still some doubts in my heart that need to be answered by this thin Mark, shaking his head and taking a step back: "No, Mark, thank you, you should keep these and eat, the evil captain has made you so hungry! If you don't eat enough, how can you have the strength to work on this Mary?"

Embarrassing, Mary is very embarrassed now, being scolded in front of her kind and friendly father for "all evil", but she can't refute it, for a girl who deliberately diets in order to maintain a good figure, it is really the greatest irony.

At this time, the smile on his face was not to mention how stiff, but he was indeed much thinner than the average boy, and the other party didn't know his specific identity, so it was understandable to have this thought!

Although I don't want to admit it, but in my current identity, I really look like a poor crew member who was deliberately bullied by the captain.

With his eyes rolling, he sat directly on the deck with the food and fresh water in his arms, nodded and agreed: "Okay, then I'll keep half of it, and you can take the rest of the food and fresh water and these changes, and buy some clothes after you get off the boat!

As soon as he picked up a piece of unopened beef and put it in his arms, Ma Shuo immediately stopped his movements when he heard the other party's remarks.

Seeing this, Mary thought that she had inadvertently hurt the other party's fragile self-esteem, and hurriedly wanted to apologize, but was stopped by Ma Shuo's action of shaking his head to indicate that it was okay.

Putting all the sugar and chocolate in the package into his arms again, Ma Shuo, whose face was a little depressed, explained: "The more smelly, the better, so that even if the bad guys see me appearing, they won't dare to catch me, how safe is it?"

As soon as the words fell, Ma Shuo immediately got up and ran away, and disappeared into the shadow of the metal corner in the blink of an eye. The girl, who had never expected such an answer, fell into a long stupor, and her head kept echoing the words of the little beggar just now.

When he suddenly came back to his senses, the eastern sky showed a hint of fish belly white, packed up the remaining things in the package, rubbed his already unconscious legs and barely stood up.

As he was about to return to his cabin, he turned his head again to look at the place where the little beggar had disappeared, pursed his lips tightly, and left the deck without saying a word.

"He's such an interesting person, maybe the right decision he made now!" As she walked back, her mind replaying the two encounters with the little beggar that day, Mary couldn't help but sigh and think.
