Chapter 55: The Truth of Getting Ahead

"Hey, haven't I polished my boots yet?!"

In the room, the impatient voice shouted: "Butler, butler, is that slacker and scumbag lazy? I have already said that this kind of little gangster, who looks like a beggar, is like a cheap donkey, and he will not be sensible without whipping." ”

"Young master, please don't worry, we will be able to dock in a while. ”

"I don't care about these things, you are ready, I must wear that best dress when the time comes!" the troubled child burped: "Butler, get me another box of snacks, I want that lemon and honey." The stuff on this broken ship is simply inedible, and it is fish every day. ”

"Okay. ”

The butler walked out of the door, closed the door lightly, and then his face changed, and he kicked the young man next to him impatiently, and looked at him coldly:

"Hurry up, little ghost, I've delayed the young master's good deeds, I want you to look good!"

"Yes, yes. Sir, please rest assured, it will be washed immediately, and it will be good immediately!"

Vito squeezed out a flattering smile and quickly wiped his shoes in his hands: "Look, it's almost over." ”

"That's a fine calfskin!" the butler kicked him again: "These boots are worn, and you won't be able to work hard all your life!"

"Yes, yes!"

After the butler reprimanded him for two more words, he left with a cold face.

Vito smirked and watched him walk away, the smile on his face gradually cooling, stroking the bruises on his face that had not yet dissipated, and his eyes were cold.

He had been on this ship to the Kingdom of Burgundy for ten days. Originally, he was crammed into the warehouse below with the group of bankrupt merchants and unemployed untouchables, ready to use all his wealth to go to the border new colonies of the Kingdom of Burgundy to pan for gold, gambling with his life to make a fortune.

But a few days ago, he used his fist to snatch an opportunity from the imp in the bottom compartment to serve as a temporary servant to serve a noble young master in the first class. Although the little fat man was short-tempered and the housekeeper was vicious, at least he didn't have to eat and drink and Lazar to be crowded into the bilge like a pigsty. There are also two more glasses of fresh water every day, and it is better to eat the leftovers of the noble lord than to drink those swills.

And...... This is not necessarily an opportunity.

"Hey, little bastard, are you talking about the opportunity to soar to the top of the world with that little fat pig as a slave for life?" In the small bottle in his pocket, Bu Yushi was a little irritated: "Are you still not a man? Yesterday you were willing to ride that fat pig as a horse!"

"So what?" asked Vito rhetorically, "what do I need to do to kill him? to get hung on the mast on this ship with no way out?

Old ghost, you're not the big guy everyone fears anymore, you're a slave now, just like me, except I'm in this boat, you're in the bottle. ”

"What the hell are you up to?" asked the Rain Master.

"Look at how exaggerated you are, I just want to get paid. ”

Vito squinted at the hatch and whispered, "...... It's just that my salary is more expensive. The aristocratic lord has so much money that he has nowhere to spend it, and he can afford it. ”

Hearing Vito's resentment, Bu Yushi couldn't help but sigh: "This is the way of the world. You have worked hard all your life honestly, and you are not as good as a wild seed born after drinking by those big nobles. It's a pity that you don't have the talent to be a musician, otherwise with your character, you will definitely be able to mix better than me. ”

"If you're a person in your right mind, you're better than you. ”

Vito sneered coldly: "Is your vision here? Being a musician is a master? Being a musician can be an equal to the nobles? That's just because the nobles need to raise a biting dog...... You're the kind of idiot who doesn't know what your last name is when you get a bitch to give you two winks. ”

Rainmaster was rarely silent, and didn't jump to curse, because Vito had indeed poked him in the underbelly.

Before becoming a black musician, he had been played with like a clown by a noble lady, but he realized too late that in order to become a musician to please that woman, he actually sacrificed to the evil god.

One wrong step, one wrong step. He has now fallen to this extent, but that woman has been transformed, married into a wealthy family, and has become a noblewoman.

"It's always right to be ruthless, what are you going to do?"

Memories of the past were recalled, and his voice became vicious.

"We'll be at the port in a minute. Vito moved his fingers, reminiscing about his work on the docks: "I have seen the butler with a bill of exchange of tens of thousands of francs and a lot of jewelry...... We make a big vote. ”

"You want to kill that imp and the butler?" said Rainmaster excited.

"Fool, can losing some money be the same as killing someone? Vito scolded him in a low voice, "Don't forget that he has a whole family behind him." Are you going to let me be hunted to the ends of the earth?"

"I think it's pretty much the same. Bu Yushi sneered: "You just don't dare to kill again, right?"

"......" rarely, Vito fell silent.

For the first time, Bu Yushi gained the upper hand in the bicker, and he laughed without stimulating him too much.

"Vito, Vito, where are you dead again? Come in!"

In the room, the impatient male duck heard again: "I want to ride a horse!"

"Okay, young master, come at once. ”

Vito responded with a smile, pushed the door open, walked into the room, and received a slap in the face.

In the luxurious room, which was completely different from those low-class cabins, the child who looked a little obsessed didn't say a word, and slapped him twice: "How did you do things? Why did you come so slowly? I told you not to be lazy!"

"I'm sorry young master, it's all me who is clumsy and bothered you. ”

With a smiling face, Vito quietly glanced around the room where there were only the two of them, and suggested softly: "You have been on the ship for ten days, and you have not gone out, and it is strange to stay here." It's better to go out for a walk and take a walk. I heard that there are many aristocratic ladies on the deck, and they may be able to make a good relationship. ”

"Really?" His eyes lit up when he heard the noble lady, but he quickly threw the cup in his hand against the wall in annoyance: "No, I won't go out." ”

"Hmm, why?" Vito was stunned, worried that he would miss the best time to strike.

"Why are you asking so much! If you don't go out, you won't go out! You try your best to please me, do you want me to reward you?" The young master rolled his eyes and glared at him: "You cheap people, you don't hide your good intentions when you approach us! I tell you, I know what the hell you have in your hearts! Don't expect me to give you anything, young master." ”

"Look at what you said, young master. Vito smiled and sighed when he heard the door open behind him: it seems that this opportunity is going to be missed.

"Young master, I just went to the front to take a look, and we're about to get to the port!"

The butler smiled and said, "The Marquis has received the news of your return, prepared a banquet for you, and welcomed you back to the family. When the time comes, you should be careful not to lose your aristocratic demeanor. ”

So fast?

Vito's heart tightened, and he noticed that a few copper ropes had been thrown at his feet, and the butler waved his hand: "This is your salary for the past few days, you can go back." ”

Vito didn't bend down to pick up the money, but just touched the knife he had hidden in his sleeve, and couldn't help but sigh softly: It seems that you still have to use this?

He looked at the butler and the dead fat man, and before he could decide to put that one over, he felt a frantic shock.

At the sudden roar, the entire steel steamer trembled wildly. As if hitting a reef, the massive concussion flipped the passengers off the deck and tumbled on the ground.

No, this level of oscillation is not a reef...... Just as Vito was thinking, he heard a scream outside the door: "Come on, put out the fire!"

"Oh no, the boiler room blew up!"

"There's a big hole in the side of the side, seal the cabin!"

In the tumbling, Vito rolled under the bed, but when he heard this, his face suddenly turned pale: the boiler room was on the top of the lower class, and if it exploded, the lower class would probably be more than lucky. If the cabin is sealed, it means that the group of people in the lower class cabin have been completely abandoned! There is no place to escape......

But before he could get up, the butler's face changed, as if he suddenly understood something, and pushed the obese fat man to the cabinet: "Young master, you hide first, I'll go out to see the situation......"

But before he could finish speaking, the walls of the room shattered.

Behind the twisted and torn alloy deck, a black shadow flew into the room without a single click, drawing a stabbing sword out of thin air, and the stabbing sword sliced through the air and let out a sharp chirp.

The sword was as fast as lightning, stabbing towards the heart of the obese!

The butler's complexion changed, and he pounced on the young master, and then blocked the blade of the sword, and under his clothes, a complex pattern lit up out of thin air, and the light of the pattern condensed the air into substance, turning it into a shield.

The blade slammed into the frozen air, as if it had pierced into a wall, and it was impossible to enter.

The black shadow drew its blade, and the sword stabbed out like a rain of rain towards the shield in front of it. The tip of the sword stabbed ripples on the shield, and the butler's face turned pale, but the shield was still indestructible.

"What's going on?" beneath the bed, Vito froze

"Hmph, it's just simple alchemy, imprinting runes on the equipment. But ordinary people have to pay the price if they want to use it, and the effect of the 'iron wall' consumes blood. ”

Bu Yushi saw it clearly and sneered: "This is an assassination, boy, obviously some people don't want to see that little fat man return to the Kingdom of Burgundy." If I'm right, the Assassins will have to pay for it next......"

Before he could finish speaking, the Black Shadow Assassin's movements suddenly froze, and the vague stabbing sword in his hand finally revealed its form. The sword was not good-looking, the blade was thin and narrow, and three lines of dense and tiny characters were engraved on it, making people worry that they would break off if they hit something.

But the assassin suddenly put his hand on the sword, and he left no stone unturned, as if he was about to cut the palm of his hand entirely. Blood red stretched from beneath his hand, rapidly covering the entire blade.

On the body of the sword, those fine characters suddenly lit up in a low light, and the sword body roared, making a metallic roaring sound. The kind of staggered sound sounds, piercing people's eardrums are painful. Even the air around the Assassin rippled irregularly.

"Ha, the assassin has high-end goods in his hands, and he actually has 'wrought iron', 'dragon strike' and 'ayahuasca' attached. Bu Yushi suddenly raised his voice: "Cover your ears!"

Vito subconsciously did so, and before he could ask why, he felt like he had been thrown into the breakwater! The endless tide swept over him, and the skin that smashed was so painful that it almost shattered. But it wasn't a tidal wave, it was a roaring wave in the air. Vito's mind went blank as he saw the assassin simply stab the blade of his sword towards the shield.

Destroy the wither!

The shield shattered in an instant, splinters smashing into the wall, knocking out large irregular holes.

The butler's soft armor turned into dust in an instant, and even his heart and intestines were shaken into a puddle of mud, and finally the blade of the sword pierced through him, nailing the terrified little fat man on the floor.

His heart was shattered, and the huge shock burst the capillaries all over his body, and the little fat man died in an instant.

After confirming that he was dead, the Assassin smashed through the wall again, fell into the sea, and walked away with his feet on the waves!

There was a lot of chaos on the ship, and no one noticed what was really going on here.

Vito was the only one left in the room.

Vito scrambled to his feet, quickly reacting to what had happened.

He rushed to the butler on the ground, tugged at his pocket, and stuffed all the jewels and bills of exchange that had not turned to paper ash into his pocket.

Then, he found two rings set with large gems on the dead fat pig. But in the end, he found a letter from the corpse that was stored close to him.

He hesitated, unfolded it quickly, and read it at a glance, but thanks to the priest's high-pressure education, he was able to understand some French:

"Dear Don Juan, when you were just born, fate arranged for you to cruelly leave me, how did you live in Anglo?...... Recently, I have been experiencing some minor problems in my body, and I miss you more and more...... After seventeen years of separation, you must have grown up?...... This letter is my personal butler, and he will bring you back to be with me. But be careful not to show your face on the road, I'm afraid that some people will go to you for trouble because of me...... I'm waiting to be reunited with you......"

After reading the letter, Vito fell into a long silence, as if petrified, motionless.

"Hey, little bastard, what's wrong with you?

In his arms, Bu Yushi shouted in a low voice: "There must still be a secret compartment in the cabinet at the head of the bed, and the nobles like this set." Hurry up, if someone else finds out, you won't have a chance to do it!"

Before he finished speaking, he was stunned:

"Hey, what are you doing!"

He saw Vito quickly pull out the jewels from his pocket, and then stuff them back into the butler's body, and throw those that could not fit into the sea of holes. For every piece he lost, the Rain Master screamed, and he shouted:

"Are you crazy?!Don't you want to soar? That's the capital that will rise in the future!"

"No, that's not. ”

Vito shook his head and stared at the young master under the butler's corpse, his eyes rolled and he couldn't bat at death, but for the first time Vito thought he was cute, looking at him, he couldn't help but laugh:

"-That's it. ”

"What do you mean?"

Vito looked at the dead boy's body and asked, "Old ghost, do you think the name 'Don Juan' is actually quite good?"

Bu Yushi finally understood, he was stunned, and screamed:

"You must be trying to get out and go crazy!"

"Haha, you're really good at laughing. Where in the world is there a reason why you can get out without going crazy?"

He quickly took off Don Juan's clothes, put his own ragged clothes on him, and then vigorously picked up the body of the little fat man and threw it into the sea.

Soon, the back-up sea water swept his body into the hole, and the oil leaking from the boiler room would burn it beyond recognition. Vito, on the other hand, had already changed into his original luxurious clothes and stuffed the bottle where the rain master was sheltering into his pocket.

Finally, he looked down at the hole in his chest and finally realized that he was missing something.

Someone's voice was already heard in the distance, and someone sensed the source of the loud noise and came to investigate.

"Nowadays, it seems that opportunities to get ahead are really everywhere. ”

Vito took out the knife he had prepared, and after touching the position of his heart, he held it to his chest and took a deep breath of cold air: "It's a pity, I have to pay some money." ”

The knife came in at the end of the handle.

Vito quickly pulled out the knife, threw it into the sea, and fell to the ground. The speed of blood flowing out was too fast, almost soaring to the ceiling, which made him a little stunned, could it be a bit big this time?

With the last of his strength, he crawled up to the butler and covered his body over himself. In the pool of blood that gradually spread, he felt that life was passing rapidly, and his will quickly sank.

Just before he fainted, the door slammed open.

"Oh my God, what's going on here!" the crew exclaimed, scrambling into the room, destroying the last clues.

Someone examined the body, turned over the dead butler, and saw the dying young man below, he reached out and touched the young man's pulse, and shouted:

"Come on, people, still people alive, ship doctor, ship doctor!!"

Hearing that voice, the saved Vito, no, Young Master Don Juan smiled sweetly.

He closed his eyes in peace.

Dad, I'm coming.
