Chapter Fifty-Four: The Lilliputian Crew of the Blue Eagle Pirates
The villain's hair, eyebrows, and faintly visible eyelashes are a warm light brown, and both have a pair of amber clear pupils.
They look like shrunken humans, but because of their small size, they can't see any pores, and the skin exposed from the corners of their clothes on their bodies is extremely fine.
And that neat baby face, round face.
Although they are directly enlarged to the size of normal humans, with a height of only about 1.4 or 1.5 meters, with such a face, both men and women, the appearance of the two villains makes people feel petite and cute, like dolls that don't grow big.
"You are a small people from the kingdom of Crowley."
Regarding the villain's special racial type, Lucifer opened his mouth to recognize it first.
In words, the king of the Mirnik continent was more familiar with the rare races of his neighbors, but in action, there were people who were one step ahead of him.
The quick-reacting Mogan had already put his hand on the ground.
His expression is serious and serious, and his movements are smooth and calm, but his movements are relatively funny.
Mogan made a human-shaped gesture on the ground with his left hand, and the index and middle fingers of his right hand were parallel to each other, against the front, covering the knuckles of the lower part that could not be bent outward, and made a gesture of "bowing".
Will only felt outrageous at first when he saw this scene, but after thinking about it, he seemed to remember something, and opened his mouth for a moment, but he didn't say a specific name.
"This is known as the finger dance in the Kingdom of Crowley, and many people perform it. But in the process of communication between Lilliputians and Terrans, its basic actions are also a basic etiquette, which is used to show the equality of the two races. ”
Seeing that Will was about to follow when he heard this, Lucifer simply stopped him.
"One person will do...... If it is not standard, it may be counterproductive. ”
Mogan is clearly confident in his technique.
After greeting politely, his gaze focused on the two villains with convergent movements and solemn colors. The fingers retracted after the "bow", but they did not get up.
"Are you members of the Blue Eagle Pirates?"
"I'm Lily Armiano, a practicing physician of the Blue Eagle Pirates." The female villain raised her head and spoke, her voice crisp and lovely, "Next to me is my brother, Bruno Amiano. What are you here for? ”
The female villain who called herself Lily wore a white doctor's gown, with a delicate light green pattern design, embellished with equally light pale gold blocks, and the two alternately outlined the edges, making the overall outfit look beautiful and elegant, but not too eye-catching.
Beside her, the little man Bruno was dressed much more elaborately.
First of all, the brown and black clips followed the body obediently, and the gilt buttons were inlaid in just the right position, and the quantity and distribution were in line with the demand, no more and no less.
Of course, Mogan noticed that the male villain Bruno also had a small package shaped like a hidden weapon clip on his leg ring, and the small metal ornaments all over his body also shone with cold light.
Although such a small size of the metal block does save materials, it can be seen from the delicate shape outline of the jewelry that the craftsmanship is quite exquisite, and there is no simplicity at all.
- A secret weapon of this level of workmanship should be a specialty of the Kingdom of Denton.
The above can prove that the sailing experience of these two villains should be expensive, not only in the Kingdom of Cole and the Kingdom of Crowley, but also not just cute mascots, but experienced crews.
"I've seen you during the day," Bruno looked up at Mogan, "you're from the Mage Guild?" ”
"It's not."
"That's the Inquisitor of Saint-Lun Harbor? But the captain said that she had already paid the berthing fee. ”
Bruno unconsciously puffed out his cheeks again, as if he was a little aggrieved, and was about to start accusing the captain of deceiving him.
"Not really." Mogan looked down at the two villains and patiently explained, "I'm just a businessman interested in the Blue Eagle Pirates, an ordinary businessman. ”
"Lilliputians usually have a crush on merchants." Lucifer suppressed his voice and explained to Will alone on the sidelines, "Because their ancestors made a deal with the Terran merchants, they were freed from slavery. ”
Although Will did not know why the "noble man who was harmless to humans and animals" in Mogan's description suddenly cared about and popularized historical knowledge to himself, he received the kindness.
Mo Gan took the initiative to communicate for a while, with thoughtful manners and kind words, and the two villains gradually relaxed their vigilance.
"Who are these two?" The villain Lily's tone gradually softened, and she turned her head to look at Will and Lucifer who were standing aside, "Also a businessman?" ”
"It's my client, and the helper brother nearby. We're just going to see the pirate ship in a group – the Blue Eagle Pirates are so famous it's hard not to care. ”
Mogan spoke quite smoothly, and the two Lilliputians were not suspicious.
Perhaps it was because they were in the pirate group that they were often the ones who wanted to dispel the vigilance of others, and the two villains got together and talked about it.
And Mogan also had an idea.
He didn't expect two Lilliputians to get off the boat to "catch" them onlookers, but this might be an opportunity to take advantage of.
A ready-made breakthrough.
Mogan took the opportunity to get up, leaned over to Will, and whispered something to him.
Hearing his instructions, Will was puzzled at first, but also nodded.
"Two days ago, when I fired at the beach, the helper next to me happened to pass by the hill and saw the situation. It looks like a black cargo ship has been blown through the sails? ”
Without thinking, Lily corrected it immediately.
"It's the side of the boat!"
The unified caliber was crossed by the desire to correct mistakes, but in the next second, she was grabbed by her younger brother Bruno.
Bruno began, "The captain is just firing a warning shot...... I didn't blow it up. ”
But having said that he has gone away, the villain is also very distressed. At the same time, Mogan also got a clue, since it was the captain who fired the cannon, then if he asked him, he must have an answer.
Will also spoke as instructed before, "It's indeed the side of the boat, I just happened to see it, and there seems to be a big hole in the black boat, and then it disappeared." ”
The two villains glanced at each other, as if they had decided something without authorization, and then in order to make up for it, you and I said a word.
"It may have been accidentally blown up, and we didn't see anything."
"Maybe they accidentally missed a little bit when they were warned......"
"We're not going to attack anyway, and we're not malicious."
"Yes, yes, the captain's head is always bad!"
"Hmm...... That's right......"
In the end, both villains' faces turned red, and Lily twisted her face even more - it was obvious that neither of them was good at lying like that.
Seeing that they all seemed a little ashamed, Mogan also sensed that the time had come.
"Actually, in addition to visiting the ships of your pirate group, we are also here to seek justice for a merchant friend."
"Justice?"
The two villains spoke in unison, their eyes widened.
Under the completely identical expression, two villains standing side by side with different costumes are more like pocket dolls who slipped out of molds one by one and were changed into different clothes.
"It's the cargo ship." Mo Gan followed the temptation, so that the villain who thought that he had been framed on his ship immediately breathed a sigh of relief, "There is a problem with the goods sold by the cargo ship, and my friend has been deceived." ”
The art of compromise is always valid, first throwing out a very unacceptable fact, then revising it into a relatively unbelievable fact, and then verbally embellishing the sense of disparity.
In order to circumvent the former, the other party can easily choose to accept the latter.
The two villains obviously didn't directly realize how scheming this seemingly peaceful Terran merchant could use in order to get a reasonable clue without being noticed.
"You're looking for the vanished cargo ship to collect the debt...... Or dealing with disputes? ”
"At least we have to find it." Mo Gan spread his hands and said helplessly, "But it's been a long time since there has been any news of a cargo ship, to be honest, although I was called to help, but after all, it is a ship that has not been heard from for so long, I really don't have much hope." ”
Lily is the enthusiastic and simple party of the sister and brother, and was quickly frightened by the "facts", and said with concern, "Actually, the cargo ship is nearby, and it hasn't gone far, but I don't know how to hide it." ”
Bruno was also very hesitant, not only did not stop it, but also added cautiously, "If you look for it all the way to the beach now, you may still be able to see it...... I don't know. ”
He may have noticed that he was being emotionally aroused, but he did not suspect that the businessman in front of him did it on purpose, but shook his head desperately like a rattle.
But Mogan keenly captured the word "yet", and his expression remained the same.
I could see it just now, and I might see it from a distance now.
But the two Lilliputians apparently didn't know exactly where it was.
However, how could the ships of the Blue Eagle Pirate Regiment that had been moored in the harbor know this?
The two villains' statements are combined, reassembled from trivial clues in Mogan's mind, and even have formed a complete bold conclusion:
The Blue Eagle Pirates have been staying in the harbor, searching for the cargo ships hidden within.
Just now, it may have left the port.
But the pirate ship did not sail again, and anchored quietly in the far place, except for two Lilliputians disembarking to deal with three strangers.
- If they really set their sights on the cargo ship, they certainly won't sit idly by and give up the opportunity with their exact knowledge.
Then, there is a more appropriate explanation.
Someone has already started to track the cargo ship, so they can only choose these two villains who are not good at dealing with communication, and are not even very good at lying, to be responsible for serving as a bridge to receive visitors and deal with outsiders.
