Chapter 539: Usurpation
The skinny pirate rubbed his head, smiled bitterly, and then said, "The one who came out of Jason's room just now is his henchman, and they seem to be discussing...... Discuss things related to Tom......"
I raised an eyebrow: "Tom? ”
I think I've heard this name before.
"You pirate leaders? I remember being still a white man? I thought about it and asked.
"Yes." The skinny pirate continued to smile bitterly, then lowered his voice and said to me, "Let me tell you quietly, Jason respects Boss Tom on the surface, but in fact, all of us know in our hearts that Jason is very ambitious!" Now everything has long been unable to satisfy his ambitions, he wants to replace Tom, and then talk directly to those people in the African Black Triangle! ”
As soon as I heard this, I immediately came to my senses, stared at him and asked, "What else have you heard?" Say it. ”
The skinny pirate's face became a little unnatural at this time, and he was obviously a little reluctant to say it. But it was only after my repeated questioning that he told me everything he had just heard.
It turns out that Jason is ready to take on the captain named Tom! And just today!
After a while, Jason will personally go to Tom's office to report some financial problems, and there are some documents that Tom needs to sign.
And in the midst of these documents, Jason hides a knife, where he plans to kill Tom silently!
After killing Tom, his henchman would hide Tom's body and not tell the rest of the crew for the time being, because Tom rarely showed up anyway. When he arrives in the Black Triangle, he will officially announce the news, and when the time comes, as his second master, he will directly go to the Black Triangle to trade, and then it will be logical to succeed in the position.
He knew that these people on the pirate ship were not faithful, they were loyal to the captain who could bring them wealth.
After listening to the Skinny Pirate's narration, I couldn't help but raise the corners of my mouth.
I didn't expect my luck to be so good, just in time to meet that big black man who wanted to mutiny.
The skinny pirate didn't know what was going on in my head, and said, "Okay, okay, you should listen to the gossip about that just now." ”
I narrowed my eyes and said, "Aren't you going to report it to that Tom since you happened to hear about it so well?" ”
The skinny pirate glared and said, "What a report!" Whether it's Tom or Jason, I can't afford to mess with it, so I just don't hear anything. If I go and make this little report and let Jason know, I'm afraid I'll be the next one to be hung in the stern! ”
I smiled and didn't speak.
The skinny pirate poked his head out, looked at it a few times, and then came back to me and said, "Okay, now Jason should be the only one in his room, I've listened to you and brought you here, I don't care about the rest, I'll go first......"
With that, he opened the door and tried to slip away.
I grabbed him: "Wait. ”
The thin pirate turned back with a bitter face: "What's wrong with you?" I've really helped you get here at most, you don't want me to take you into Jason's room, do you? ”
"Nope." I squinted, smiled and said, "I've changed my mind again." ”
"Huh?" The skinny pirate was stunned for a moment.
"I'm not interested in this guy anymore." I glanced at Jason's cabin door and said, "Now, take me to your head, the white man named Tom." ”
His eyes widened: "For ......" The thin pirate unconsciously raised his voice, and then reacted that Jason's room was next door, and quickly covered his mouth and lowered his voice: "Why?!" Damn, you're not kidding me, are you? ”
"What a ramble." I stared at him earnestly and said, "Remember, you have to do what I say next." ”
Then I told him what I thought.
The thin pirate shook his head in shock when he heard my plan, but he could only agree to it despite my coercion and temptation.
Tom's office is far away from Jason's room.
The rain outside had not stopped, but it was still very inconvenient for the skinny pirate to take me as an outsider around this pirate ship.
The Skinny Pirate took me into an exhaust tunnel, which was narrow enough to fit the size of a man, and it was difficult to turn around. But only if you go here, you won't encounter guards.
The skinny pirate told me that Tom's living chamber was the most heavily guarded place in the entire pirate ship. "Of course I'll be fine if I go in." The skinny pirate said to me, "But as soon as you get close, you're bound to be discovered." ”
"It's okay." I said lightly, "I'll wait here in a while, you just go and do what I say." ”
After crawling through the passage for a while, I saw a faint glow peeking through a gap in the floor of the passage in front of me. The skinny pirate climbed over first, then gently removed the iron plate.
Underneath the iron plate, I could see a huge room, presumably Tom's office.
This office is extraordinarily luxurious, and it is hard to imagine such a gorgeous place on this pirate ship. The two sides of the room were filled with a dazzling array of gold and silver jewels, and at the very back there was a large desk, on which were also many intricately carved ornaments, and behind the table sat a middle-aged man in his forties, a white man, who must have been Tom.
Compared with Jason, this Captain Tom's temperament is obviously different, not so much gangsterism, at first glance he doesn't look like a pirate at all, but like the chairman of a company and an entrepreneur.
Tom was wearing a gray suit, black trousers, no tie, the collar of the shirt was unbuttoned very casually, and he was fiddling with a delicate double-barreled shotgun in his hand, and he looked at the shotgun with admiration for a long time, and he didn't know if the gun was real or just a model.
I was right above his head, above the ventilation duct, and I could see everything below, but he didn't notice me.
Tom was still looking at the double-barreled shotgun, and he could see how much he liked it.
I gave the skinny pirate a look and told him he was ready to act.
At this time, someone knocked lightly on the door of the cabin, and Tom said casually, "Please come in." Jason pushed the door open and walked in, holding a mess of papers.
"Captain." Jason said, "This is the people over there in Myanmar, and the deal with us. ”
Tom said, "Take it." ”
“OK。” Jason answered, and walked slowly towards Tom.
The corners of his mouth rose imperceptibly, and his hand was already gripping the dagger hidden under the papers.
