Chapter 608: Meeting
Another reason why Kelly is so confident is that she doesn't tell everyone that she actually has a clear goal. While this may provoke Warhammer's wrath, she always wants to maintain a sense of mystery, which is why she says she doesn't have a clear goal in her deliberations before she leaves. Karl and Erin might have understood her, but Warhammer was different.
What Warhammer had done last night didn't know or be interested in knowing. The things he was able to do were incomprehensible to ordinary people, and it was not surprising to say that he was a complete eccentric. However, though he was a strange man and liked to do what he wanted, he went with Kelly to the harbor the next morning to find Adrian. The reason why he didn't run away was clear to Kelly, and he wanted to resolve the incident as soon as possible so that he could return to Huttonmaar to enjoy his rare leisure time.
The Black Shark was quietly moored in the harbor, as if waiting for everyone to arrive. Since Adrian has been helping the West Coast Harbour Master with some of the biggest headaches over the last year, the people here are no longer afraid of and repelled by the aggressive-looking Black Shark. Now, people here look at the Black Shark more like a loyal guardian.
"They're still the same. When the Black Shark came into view, Erin couldn't help but laugh.
"Why do you say that?" asked Carl strangely.
"You also know that I spent a very short time with the people on the Black Shark, and although it was short, they were the first people I met in the world below, so they made a big impression on me. Erin explained.
Carl nodded thoughtfully, "What kind of people do they think they are?"
"It's hard to describe......" Erin thought as she tilted her head in annoyance. "It's not so much that they're a bunch of uninhibited people, it's that they've never worn a mask. ”
"I know what you think, this is unavoidable in the court of the Celestial Realm. ”
"But that's what I have to do. There was no unpleasant expression on Erin's face, which at least proved that Erin could adapt to the court life in the imperial capital. Moreover, she has also experienced many years of brutal war.
"Alright, we're here, it's better to go and say hello to the captain first. Kelly stopped at the door of the café in the harbor. "This is it. ”
There weren't many people in the café in the morning, so when they entered, they noticed Adrian and Sebastian sitting at the table in the corner of the café. It was like a planned meeting, but in reality it was just an accident of luck for both parties.
Sebastian, who was facing the direction of the café's door, was stunned, then put down the coffee cup in his hand, stretched out his finger and pointed to the location of several people. Adrian, who was sitting across from him, turned his head and saw the person he wanted to see. Although he hadn't met Kelly a few times, he had seen Carl and Warhammer, not to mention that Kelly's dress and the revolver pinned to her waist were too conspicuous.
"You came. Adrian said hello. "Yes, I believe you. ”
"Of course, handsome captain. Kelly smiled happily. "I'm very interested in it. The warhammer behind her watched the stupid woman in front of her perform a funny performance, turned to the side in displeasure, walked straight to the bar, and asked the boss for a special cup of coffee.
Although Adrian is very old, his memory has not deteriorated to the point of hopelessness, so Erin, who is standing next to Carl, recognizes him at a glance. After all, it was a special encounter. "I didn't expect to have a chance to see you again, I remember your name ...... Erin, right?"
"Thank you for accepting me at that time. Erin bowed her head and thanked her.
"It's nothing. Adrian waved his hand. "Come and sit. ”
At this point, Warhammer became a withdrawn fellow. He sat down at the bar, discreetly unmasked under the strange gaze of the café owner, and tasted the cup of special coffee he had ordered. He didn't look into the corner where everyone was, the café was supposed to be a peaceful place, so their conversation Warhammer could be heard clearly.
However, this made Adrian a little strange, he didn't know why Warhammer was alone in front of the bar. And when he tried to get up and call the other to come and sit, Kelly and Carl stopped him almost at the same time. Although Adrian didn't understand why the two of them were doing this, it was clear that staying here for a long time would be very conspicuous, so it was better to finish the conversation as soon as possible.
Adrian gave a detailed description of the guy he had seen, which was consistent with Kelly's relay, which convinced the three Celestials that the guy Adrian had seen was a Celestial. But the only suspicion is the logo on his clothes. They hadn't heard of any of the West Sea Devils, but Adrian gave them more detailed information after they had raised this question.
But they still couldn't understand why a Celestial could be involved with the privateer fleets of the Delos Empire. And judging from the current situation, although Adrian's intelligence is useful, that guy has not appeared in the port on the west coast again, which is undoubtedly something that confuses everyone. "It seems that we are working on the point of investigating the nearby towns, and it just so happens that I have a clear goal. Kelly said.
"Wait, didn't you say you didn't know the target?" Karl hurriedly interrupted.
"I had it on my way to the West Coast, so please don't interrupt me. Kelly waved her hand. "Sanban Street, that's it. ”
"You're talking about the gang-infested town on the northern West Coast?" asked Adrian, who had been on the West Coast for over a year, and knew more or less about what was going on nearby.
Kelly nodded, "That's right, I was thinking that if it was to build a stronghold, Sanban Street would undoubtedly be the best choice." It was originally a gathering place for the Grozny gang, and not many people noticed that they were carrying out their covert activities there, because most people would not choose to go near it. ”
"But the problem is that since the murderous pirates who have been rumored to be setting up a foothold there, they will either cooperate with the local gangs or clear them out. But by all accounts, it's hard to do. Sebastian said.
"Of course, neither of these scenarios will happen. Kelly said confidently. "Because there is a third situation, that is, the local gang is subdued by some means, and the gang guys have no chance to refuse. She's not alarmist, and if it's Kahlert who is responsible for all this, then what she's saying is a real possibility.
"It's ......" Sebastian didn't know what to say because it was hard to believe. Moreover, he did not think that anyone would act openly under the banner of pirates today. Either it was done deliberately, or the other side did not understand the situation on the mainland at all.
"Just check it out. Carl said the easiest way to do it.
Adrian nodded, "We won't be sailing for a while, so if you need any help, just let us know on the Black Shark." ”
"Thank you, handsome captain. Kelly said with a smile.
"How about scouting around Sanban Street after dark?" After Adrian and Sebastian left, Carl asked Kelly for advice.
Kelly sighed and leaned back in her chair. "Decide for yourselves, I'll stay in town. ”
"Why?" asked Erin, puzzled.
"That's the condition of that masked bastard, it's a condition. Kelly said weakly.
"Let's do it. Carl nodded.
