Uncle B of the pirate is invincible

Chapter 203 Acting School

"That is to say, after you repelled Crocodile, you followed Brigadier General Hunter to pursue him, but you lost the other party's trace. When you searched separately, you found the major general's body?"

Burt shook his head and corrected: "It was Colonel Hunter who repelled Crocodile, oh no, it was the brigadier general. At that time, the officer was confronting the pirate, and the brigadier general beheaded him and scared him away." To strengthen his persuasive power, Bert was not stingy with giving the dead ghost Hunter a great light, anyway, there are still blames waiting for him in the future.

Colonel Harlan's expression was cloudy after hearing Burt's explanation, because he didn't quite believe what the other party said.A naval sergeant confronting Crocodile, who had severely wounded Commodore Red Tree and wiped out almost two brigades of the navy, sounded like a lie.

"This big guy doesn't behave like an idiot who would tell such stupid lies. Well, he was recommended by General Zefa to Major General Marcus, so he should be very skilled, right?" Colonel Harlan still thought after thinking about it. Bert's words have a certain credibility.

But doubts must be clarified. He continued to ask: "You said you found the body of Major General Marcus on Tree Island 28. How could it be such a coincidence? You went there!"

Burt replied with a look of reminiscence: "After I separated from the brigadier general, I searched a lot around the place where I lost Crocodile, but I found nothing, so I went back to the place where I separated from the brigadier general to see if Crocodile is there. Didn't he hide back treacherously, and found the body of the major general there!" At the end, Burt's eyes turned red again.

"According to your opinion, the place where Major General Markus was killed is the place where you and Brigadier General Hunter searched for Crocodile separately?" Colonel Harlan asked nervously.

Burt nodded affirmatively and said, "That's right, it's the place where I separated from Colonel Hunter and the Brigadier General. It's very quiet there, and I remember it very clearly!"

Colonel Harlan, who stared at Bert fixedly after asking, could not see any questions from his very natural expression.

"This Sergeant Burt didn't lie. That would be too strange, how did Markus die there? Did Crocodile do it? Then Hunter..."

At this moment, the colonel remembered another important figure, Brigadier General Hunter, and he hurriedly asked, "Where is Brigadier General Hunter? Why didn't he come back with you?" Colonel Harlan's tone couldn't help but become severe.

"Brigadier General Hunter? I haven't seen the brigadier general since we left!" Burt was a little dazed at first, then seemed to understand what the colonel meant, and said eagerly.

"Really?" The colonel's tone was a little erratic.

Burt's anxious face turned pale, and he said almost as if swearing: "The officer only found the body of the major general in the place where he was separated from the brigadier general, and he has never seen the body of the brigadier general Hunter!" What, he slapped his forehead, raised the spring in his hand and said to Colonel Harun: "I have never seen the brigadier general, but I found his saber!"

Of course Colonel Harlan knew Qingquan, and when he saw the familiar scabbard, his color suddenly changed.All his attention just now was attracted by Major General Marcus, and he didn't even notice such a conspicuous thing.

He snatched the so-called saber from Burt's hand, pulled it out of the scabbard, saw the beautiful blade, and immediately affirmed that it must be the saber of Brigadier General Hunter, one of the fifty best knives of good and fast knives.

Bert looked at Colonel Harlan who was appraising the knife with cold eyes, and his mood was very calm. The development of the matter so far was completely within his expectations.

"Shua!" Colonel Harlan suddenly put the unsheathed spring on Burt's neck without any warning, and asked sharply, "Say! Where did you find this knife? What happened to the brigadier general?"

Burt's face was at a loss at first, but he seemed to calm down after a few breaths, and explained to Colonel Harlan sincerely: "The brigadier general's saber was picked up next to the major general's body. As for I have never seen Brigadier General Hunter!"

Colonel Harlan's sudden turn of events was originally intended to deceive Bert, but now that he reacted quite naturally and said it so sincerely, he couldn't help but lose three points of his suspicion, which was only five points.

"Never seen it? Then how do you know that this knife belongs to the brigadier general?" Although the colonel continued to question Burt's neck with the blade, his tone softened.

"I am the navy of the Sixth Branch of the East China Sea. The brigadier has been there as a commander for five years. Of course I know this saber. It is Qingquan, one of the fifty craftsmen of the world-famous good and fast swords. This is the name of everyone in the Sixth Branch. I know." How could Burt be stumped by this kind of question, since he dared to bring the knife back, he thought of the answer.Of course, what he said is naturally true.

"The Sixth Branch of the East China Sea?" How could Colonel Harun not know that his boss had served in the East China Sea for five years.Hearing this, he was quite surprised, and suddenly realized, "No wonder he mistook Hunter's rank as a colonel several times just now. It turned out that he was used to saying it before. Then everything makes sense!" Burt deliberately buried The little seed that was planted finally germinated in Colonel Harlan's heart.

The colonel, who dispelled the last two points of doubt, took Qingquan away from Bert's neck, inserted it back into the scabbard, and thought with a heavy heart: "What happened? Qingquan is the second son of Commodore Hunter who never leaves his body." A life, to be discarded next to the body of Major General Marcus, this..." Colonel Harlan had countless thoughts in his mind for a moment.

Burt could see Colonel Harlan's cloudy and uncertain expression in his eyes, and his face was still sad, but he secretly smiled in his heart, "Think about it. The bigger your brain, the safer I will be."

Bert's purpose was very clear from the beginning, and he didn't seek to be absolutely reasonable, which would only make truly smart people feel too deliberate.Instead, he wanted to muddy the water, the muddier the better.As long as Hunter, who was already inside the shark's stomach, didn't show up, and as long as no one knew that he had been severely injured by Hunter, Burt would definitely not be the most suspicious one.Those smart people who investigate can only come up with various 'reasonable' explanations in their own minds.

"It's best for everyone to come up with a big conspiracy and give up investigating the truth!"

I don't know if he has figured out the big conspiracy Bert hoped for. Colonel Harlan suddenly knelt down and carefully examined the wound on Markas's forehead. After comparing it with the wound with his index finger, the colonel's expression became extremely ugly. I broke out in a cold sweat.

Burt didn't bother Colonel Harlan, who had fallen into a routine, quietly watching his kaleidoscopic expression.

"Colonel, all the officers and soldiers have boarded the ship, and the bodies of the fallen soldiers have also been placed temporarily on the ship, should we go?"

The extremely weird atmosphere was not broken until an officer ran over to report the military situation to Colonel Harlan.

"Oh?! I see. Let's go!" Colonel Harlan, who was awakened from the unspeakable conspiracy, finally remembered that there was still an extremely important business to be done, and immediately suppressed his turbulent thoughts.

He stood up and told Burt: "Sergeant Burt, there is an urgent military situation that needs to be dealt with now, and we must act immediately. Put down the major general and brigadier general first, and you will take the body of the major general and board the ship with me later." The colonel glared at the officer who had reported the death of the major general, and told him and Burt: "This matter must be kept secret, and it must not be leaked out. If any of you leak it and disturb the morale of the army, I will deal with it by military law!"

Bert and the officer immediately saluted and assured, "Yes, we must strictly keep the secret."

Colonel Harlan nodded, his eyes signaled the officer to go to the ship to make arrangements first.After the officer knew how to leave, he said to Bert who had already picked up the major general's body: "Sergeant, let's go too."

Burt nodded in agreement, and then asked curiously: "Colonel, what military situation is more urgent than the matter of the major general?"

The colonel replied with a wry smile: "Of course I went to rescue the living."
