Chapter 41: Big Sister, You're So Kind
For some reason, when the fruit stall uncle heard this ordinary sentence, his stomach was slightly cold, and there was a faint tingling sensation.
It was as if something sharp was pressing against his belly, and he was so startled that he involuntarily looked down and found that his clothes were wet with watermelon juice, and there was a mosquito lying on his stomach, piercing it with his mouthparts.
After swatting the blood-sucking mosquito on the people, Uncle Fruit Stall put away the watermelon knife and fruit knife before answering Reilly's question with peace of mind.
"Don't worry, our melon is ripe, it will definitely be ripe!" In order to prove that he was right, he also deliberately took out the remaining watermelon that he had just cut: "If you don't believe it, you can taste it." β
Reilly blinked, thinking to himself that this young man was on the right track.
"Yes, the old man admires you." Reilly took the watermelon with satisfaction and took a bite, it was really sweet and juicy.
The fruit stand uncle watched as Reilly finished a piece of watermelon to see if he was going to buy melons or hint that he had a daughter or granddaughter to marry.
It's a pity that Reilly's next words are completely different from what Uncle Fruit Stall thought, so he wiped his mouth and asked, "Young man, I heard that His Majesty's Klockdahl of the Seven Martial Seas is here as a patron saint, I wonder how he is doing lately?" β
Uncle Fruit Stand: "??? β
What the hell, how come the people who patronize their business for two days in a row are related to Klocodahl?!
"Well, if you want to tell me how the adult is and how he is feeling recently, of course it is impossible for a small person like me to know."
Reilly touched his beard and smiled: "Haha, I didn't ask the right question, so let's change the question, I don't know if there is any news about him recently?" β
"News, just a few days ago he showed up and caught a group of pirates who came to make trouble." Uncle Fruit Stall moved his fingers slightly, thought for a while, and found that except for those lacy news that had no credibility, it seemed that only his punishment of evil could be regarded as useful news.
"Anyway, uncle, why are you asking about him, don't you also want to name Lord Klockdahl?" Uncle Fruit Stall looked like he suddenly reacted, "I said that you are so old, don't learn from other people's young people, even if your body is still strong, but you can't stand your fists and are afraid of being young." β
There has always been an endless stream of people who come to Alabastan to challenge Klockdahl, there are fledgling rookies, there are newcomers who are famous, and there are also people who have made a comeback after capsizing, like Reilly, although young, but still exists.
The uncle, who has rich underground work experience, persuaded bitterly: "Those young people who don't know the height of the sky and always want to prove that they are the best in the world will come to challenge Klockdahl frizzily in order to become famous...... Balabala......"
Uncle Fruit Stall's words can be said to be heart-wrenching and lung-out, if someone else comes, it is really possible to be bluffed by him, but the object of his persuasion is the famous pirate old fritter - Hades Reilly, that old man's magnificent life and experience can not be understood by a small intelligence officer of the Aruma branch of the revolutionary army in Alabastan.
So......
I saw that Lei Li grabbed the hand of the fruit stall uncle, as if grasping a life-saving straw, and said gratefully with tears in his eyes: "Thank you, young man, almost uncle, I went astray and turned back." β
That guy is like a crazy temptation on the verge of death, and he doesn't know that he is afraid of being rescued...... Be a dead old man.
Although Reilly's status in the pirate world is very high and his strength is super strong, it is clear that he is not a serious old man.
After all, it's a happy old boy who can take himself to auction and decide whether to blackmail the buyer depending on his mood, and sometimes it's normal to have a little skin.
After some talking, the two reluctantly separated, looking for a baby for those who should be looking for a baby, and selling melons for those who should sell melons.
"Hey, this young man is really interesting." Reilly, who turned around, smiled, in the conversation just now, he had already noticed the abnormality of Uncle Fruit Stall, but he did not expose it, but cooperated to finish the play.
Although it may seem a little silly, the results are good.
The following conclusions can be drawn from Uncle Fruit Stall's advice to Uncle Reilly:
1. Sauron had been to the city and had contact with the fruit seller, and the time should have been these two days;
Second, Klockdahl and Sauron have not yet faced each other;
3. Between Sauron and the Baroque Society, there were other forces involved.
"Tsk, the water is a little muddy." Lifting the flask hanging from his waist and taking a sip, Reilly looked at the beautiful city in front of him, and slowly paced into it like an old sightseer everywhere.
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
"Say, where is he going?" Robin followed Sauron, walking in unison, wondering where Kosha had gone.
Zoro frowned and thought about it, combined with some of the things he had seen and heard on the road before, and replied, "If my expectations are correct, he should have gone to meet someone." β
"Oh, who could that be?" Robin didn't ask Zoro why he was so sure.
"Hey, a pretty noble person." A slight smile appeared on Sauron's lips when he said this, and Robin could see that it did not contain any irony, just pure remembrance and happiness.
"Could it be that he is really some kind of person with great background?" Noticing this smile, Robin's heart couldn't help but rise to the guess that he had been suppressed several times.
But now was not the time to multitask, so she could only continue to follow Zoro while guessing what this guy was relying on to follow.
"Big brother, buy a flower for my sister!"
Just as they were moving forward, a little girl selling flowers suddenly came up to Sauron and the others, holding her basket full of roses in both hands, and her cute little face was full of innocence and innocence.
Unexpected circumstances forced Zoro to temporarily suspend his ...... Phew, track.
He looked down at the little girl in front of him, who was not as tall as Robin's navel, and then looked at the basket full of roses that had obviously just been picked, and said in his heart that this little girl should have just started today's business, and taking care of it by herself would be a good start for her.
Will Robin like roses though? I don't seem to like it much in my impression.
But it doesn't matter, anyway, it's just sending flowers, the chef sends them every day, and the flowers and plants that Chopper and Usopp planted before were almost ruined by him.
"Okay, how much does it cost?" Zoro said as he fumbled in his pockets, ready to pull out the money.
It's just that he didn't see the little girl's big smiling face becoming a little stiff after the word "flower" came out: "I guess, does the big brother have no girlfriend?" β
"Well, how do you know?" Zoro was surprised, he acted like a bachelor so much, even such a small little girl could see it.
The little girl glanced at Robin, who was smiling and silent, and sighed and said, "It's nothing, I just think that the big brother is so naΓ―ve, and the big sister is really kind-hearted." β
Zoro: ??? (βΛβ)οΌοΌοΌ
