"Oh no!"

Jack covered his eyes, unable to bear to look at the scene in front of him.

Frank pushed the stunned Turks away, clutched his chest, his eyes wide open, took a few steps back, and fell straight to the deck, spitting blood from his mouth.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the soldiers rushed to Frank's side to check on his injuries.

"I ...... I ......", Tex didn't expect him to come and grab his sword, and still a little can't believe what he saw, half-crouching on the ground.

Jack ran to Tex's side, first congratulating Tex for winning the duel, and then began to comfort Tex and said, "Don't worry, it should be fine, it's just a mistake, it's not fatal." Now that I think about it, in fact, Jack is still a little afraid, Frank's last few moves, the move is fatal, it is said to be a duel, but in fact, there is no need to distinguish between life and death, and Turks has already stopped, Frank is still not convinced, and finally led to his own injury.

Turks was still staring at Frank lying on the ground, surrounded by four or five soldiers in front of his head, and Turks could only see his feet, kicking the deck all the time, as if he was in great pain at the moment.

The noisy voice echoed in Jack's ears, he didn't care much about Frank's injury, after all, such a wicked man, someone should have stepped forward to punish him, and if he hadn't proposed to return to the Old World, the brothers in the slums would not have lost their lives. In the final analysis, it was he who took the lives of more than 100 people.

"Jack, I feel like I've stabbed him in the heart. ”

After a long time, the silent Turks said such a sentence.

At this time, the soldiers surrounding Frank also exclaimed:

"Frank!"

Sure enough, the feet that kept kicking didn't move, quietly skimming to the sides, and Frank remained motionless despite the screams of the soldiers.

Frank is dead!

One by one, the elders ran to Frank's side, touching his snort, confirming that he was dead.

Shahiss turned his head and looked at Jack and Tex without tears, then got up and waved his hands behind his back and said to the crowd, "Buried at sea!"

Such an ending was something that no one expected. Except for Jack and Turks, everyone thought that the final winner of this duel would be Frank, but they didn't expect the last one to change the outcome. Tex never thought of killing, it was completely because of Frank's own competitiveness, and Tex withdrew it out of his own protection, but he didn't expect this sword to hit him in the heart.

Frank's body was carried away, leaving a puddle of crimson blood on the ground that was still flowing in front of Tex.

Turks hurried away. It's not that he's afraid that he's killing someone, he said it before, a duel, since it's a duel, according to the rules, someone will always die, although he doesn't want to hurt anyone, but after all, this result is what Frank himself deserves. He panicked because he was worried that the elders would not let Jack's family go because of this, which would lead to the interruption of this return trip and lead to more serious consequences.

The crowd gradually quieted down, but not the soldiers who were usually disciplined by Frank were all tense, viciously pointing at Jack and Turks, threatening to avenge Frank.

"You people, who are also the regular army of Chau Island, why are you so dishonest? We have already said beforehand that Frank will let us go if he loses the duel, but now you are like this? What are you capable of!" Jack angrily shot back at the surrounding group of soldiers.

At this time, many people gathered on the deck for night walks, and they were surprised and gradually understood what was happening in front of them. Jack saw that now was a good opportunity for them to get out, and took advantage of the situation and said to the onlookers: "Frank lost the duel and promised to let us go, and now these soldiers are going to stop us again, tell me, whose fault is it?"

Although the crowd didn't know who was speaking, they were secretly happy when they heard that Frank was dead. On weekdays, this Frank is also a hegemon on the island, bullying the weak and afraid of the hard, thinking that he is the supreme governor is great, not only often bullying the people in the slums, but even some people in the rich area have to avoid him for three points. Now that Frank is dead, who isn't snickering?

"Yes, you should be honest as a human being. ”

"Elder Shahiss should let them go. ”

"It's a shame Frank died......"

Jack restrained the joy in his heart, turned his head to look at Tex who was still in a daze, nudged him lightly and said, "Tex, don't worry, we'll be fine." Turks looked up in disbelief.

The Council of Elders is also quietly discussing, whether to let them go or not, after all, it is the commander of the army on the island who died, although he usually did not do anything useful, but at least without him, the Council of Elders will have less protection, not to mention that a person died in front of the Council of Elders, and he is also a person with the highest status, if he deals with it perfunctorily now and lets them go, it will lose the majesty of the Council of Elders. However, if Jack is not let go, it will establish a ruthless and unreasonable impression in front of the masses, which will not be conducive to the future jurisdiction of Chau Island.

After thinking about it and discussing it, Shahiss finally stood up, first at the crowd, then at Jack, and raised his voice and said word by word, "Today is a fair showdown, and Frank's death is also an accident, but in view of the fact that this young man from another place despised the Presbyterian Church, disrupted the meeting, and openly killed people, this matter had an extremely bad impact on Chau Island. So, we decided to let the two of them go back first, and then summon a new trial tomorrow. ”

When Jack heard this, he was furious: "What!?Are you blind or deaf?!I have already said that Frank's death was an accident, why do you say that it was a blatant murder!?Why do you have to summon again!?"

The crowd was full of discussion and seemed to be full of objections to this ambiguous decision.

"Everyone disperse, the Council of Elders will definitely take care of this matter and not let everyone have any doubts. Shahiss began to drive away the crowd.

"Shahis!" Jack was furious, but could not do anything about such a "verdict", so he smashed his fist into the air.

The crowd dispersed, leaving only the previous group standing still.

The soldiers all looked at the helpless Jack and the anxious Turks.

"Hmph, wait, you look good tomorrow!"

"Boy, you're very good, aren't you? ”

The soldiers all threatened Jack with evil words, but Jack was unmoved, and at this time, he was brewing another plan in his heart.

"Okay Jack, if you don't have anything to say, go back first, and tomorrow the Council of Elders will send someone to your house to summon you. With that, the Nameless Elder entered the flagship cabin and disappeared. The soldier sneered and returned to the ship.

Turks looked at Jack apologetically and kept apologizing, "I didn't expect it to be like this...... Jack, I'm sorry for delaying something big because of my impulsiveness!"

Jack seemed calm again, but his frown betrayed that he was thinking about something.

It was late at night, the sea breeze was blowing Jack's messy hair, and his handsome face looked deeper and more composed in the light.

"I think we're going to have to leave Chau Island tonight. ”

Turks was puzzled by Jack's proposal: "Why? Didn't you say that your parents would suffer if you left?"

"I'll take your advice and bring my parents to Tana too, they may not get used to life there, and they will have to learn Meroe, but they must not be exiled to the sea, which would be tantamount to death!" explained Jack.

"Well, that's fine. ”

"Hmm. You don't have to feel guilty anymore, Frank deserves to die, he doesn't die, and now it's you who is being dragged away. In other words, you're doing the Galans a great disservice. Jack suddenly smiled and looked at Tex and said.

"Oh, yes? Looks like I'm a hero to the Garlands, haha!" Turks began to feel comfortable inside, and the cloud of self-reproach in his heart gradually disappeared.

Both smiled happily and walked back to the slums.

"Turks, I'll go with me to meet someone later. ”

"Who?"

"Someone I've been thinking about. ”
