Chapter 18 Just try...

"Don't listen, don't listen, don't listen!" Lily Xi covered her ears and ran out of the door all the way, without any intention of stopping, she let out a series of laughter like silver bells.

"Don't ask me, I'm just a bounty hunter passing by." Aiou didn't turn his head, and blocked the other party's unspoken words first, without stopping.

"Okay. Then please take good care of her." Pulitzer said in a doting tone, like a helpless elder brother facing a mischievous younger sister, "She has longed for the scenery of the sea since she was a child, and learned a lot about sailing. Knowledge, this time I found an opportunity to run out and cut off my own hair."

It turned out to be like this, I said, what's the matter with the messy short hair, she cut it blindly by herself?

"If she asks you to take her to some extremely dangerous places, please don't go with her. Inform her family... or tell our boat. The reward will definitely not disappoint you. Although it is not good to do it for you , but our two families are family friends after all, some things should try not to involve outsiders..."

Pulitzer stood still, so his voice became smaller and smaller in the ears of Io, who was walking outside, until finally it became inaudible.

Extremely dangerous?Is the dragon's lair count?As for notifying her family to take her back, Ai Ou was noncommittal.After finally catching a useful tool man, and she herself didn't want to be a victim of marriage, how could Ai Ou send her back.

He is short of money, but he doesn't want this kind of money.

When Ai Ou came to the edge of the gangway, a hurried footsteps chased after him, but when he got close, he trailed behind him without saying a word.

Looking back, a maid followed him cautiously with her head down. It was the same maid who broke into the reception room before, holding a rag in her hand.

Io couldn't figure out whether she came out to wipe the deck or the person Pulitzer said would go to see the ship, so he asked directly: "Are you going to see the ship with me?"

She gave a low "hmm".

Ao lifted his legs and walked away.

The gangway is quite spacious, and another maid is walking towards her. Ai Ou finds that she looks exactly like the one behind her, and can't help but look back.

twin?
Maid No. [-] walking towards him held her head high, followed by a tall man, Ai Ou remembered that his name seemed to be Zhe... huh?

The four passed by silently.The pirate named Tetsuya had no expression on his face, he didn't seem to recognize Io.

Stepping on the hardened road in the port area, Ao looked back. On the Norrigo, a flag embroidered with lightning tulips was hanging feebly in the dense fog.

What Lilish said not long ago flashed in his mind.

——"The Lovas family has a grudge against pirates."

The Lovas family seems to have a big problem.

However, that had nothing to do with him.

The Oak was not far away, and the gangway that was put down in the morning was still there, and there was no sign that anyone had moved it.However, Lily Xi probably ran back to the boat.

Ai Ou was about to go up, when Lilish poked out half of her head from the side of the ship: "Captain, you won't catch me back, right?"

"What nonsense?" Ai Ou stepped onto the gangway.

"You promise," Lilyxi said anxiously, reaching for the movable gangway with both hands, "otherwise I won't let you go up!"

Ai Ou stepped on it, "You try?"

"Try it..." Li Lixi held on to the gangway and pushed it up hard, but she couldn't make it move even an inch, and finally sat down on the deck with a sad face, "The captain is bullying..."

Ai Ou carried his things onto the boat, ignoring the idiot coolie who was accusing him.

"Look for yourself, I won't accompany you." Ai Ou said, sitting on the ground in a corner of the deck, preparing to sort out the things he bought.

"Oh." The voice was still so low that it would be ignored if you didn't pay attention, Maid No. [-] started her work lightly.

Li Lixi, who was sitting with her face covered, peeked out her eyes from between her fingers. Seeing that no one was paying attention to her, she jumped up immediately: "What, are you here for a valuation?"

She leaned in front of Maid No. [-] who was working hard, and stared at her face: "I'm the ship's... former deputy captain, just ask me if you want to know anything! Let me tell you, this ship is a good one." Boat,……"

Maid No. [-] was taken aback by Lilith, her breathing became a little messed up, and her cheeks turned red visibly.She stopped there and listened to Lilish chatter for a few minutes. Seeing that the other party had no intention of stopping, she had no choice but to obediently respond to Lilish, while eliminating interference and inspecting the ship's condition inch by inch with difficulty.

The sky gradually brightened, but the thick milky white fog still had no intention of dissipating, and the slight light could not penetrate completely under the obstruction of the overlapping fog, and only illuminated the fog itself.

Lilith's voice came faintly.Ai Ou followed the sound and found the two of them under the cabin.

Now is the time for her to make a difference—

Ai Ou took the talkative coolie by the collar of his back shirt, and carried her back to the deck.Behind him, Maid No. [-], who was working hard, let out a deep sigh of relief.

"Captain, she will definitely quote us a high price when she goes back. I have introduced so many to her." Lilith was full of confidence.

Before Ai Ou could answer, she changed the subject and asked cautiously: "For the sake of my hard work, can I be the deputy captain of the new ship?"

You have been dragging people around for so long, just for this?

Considering that there are still many places where this coolie will be used in the future, it doesn't hurt to give a sweet date, Ai Ou said "hmm".

"Really?" Lilith finally got what she wanted, overjoyed, she broke free from Aiou's hand, ran to the deck with a "thump, thud, thump", and turned her head to call Ai Ou: "Captain, hurry up!"

Literacy education begins.

The time to concentrate on studying always passes quickly.

It wasn't until Ao was awakened by the sound of footsteps from the gangway that he noticed the hunger in his stomach.

It's noon?
He looked up at the sky, but there was still a thick fog, and he could not see the existence of the sun.

A figure emerged from the gangway, stood on the deck and saluted: "Miss Escana and Mr. Bounty Hunter, this is a wish from Master Pulitzer, please accept it."

Judging by his demeanor, it's Maid No. [-].

Lilyxi rubbed her stomach, and happily ran over to take the large and elegant food box, "That guy Pulitzer is quite interesting."

Maid No. [-] didn't dare to answer.She took a few steps back with a half-bow, looked around the deck, and said with a worried tone, "Excuse me, where is the other maid from the Lovas family who came over this morning?"

A figure who came out of the cabin and walked quickly to her side answered her question.
