A Pirate's Bizarre Adventure

When Fannie Valentine arrived at the Green Tombstone.

What he saw was the dead body of Blackmore.

Thunder pierced the night sky.

It rains a lot.

The patriotic president is angry!

On the other side, Kansas City.

After making sure that no one was around, Lucy quietly led the horse into the stable, hugged the cloth bag, and quietly returned to the apartment.

Her husband, Stephen Steele, was still at work. She breathed a sigh of relief and went straight to the bathroom, took off her dirty clothes and washed away the mud with hot water.

Lying comfortably in the bathtub, Lucy was thinking a lot.

The "saint's body" was indeed snatched up.

So

What’s next?

The more she thought about it, the more confused she became. Lucy held her head helplessly.

I don’t know how long it took, but there was movement outside the bathroom.

——Stephen Steele is back.

Lucy quickly stood up, wiped her body with a bath towel, and hid the remaining two pieces of the "saint's body" in the wooden cabinet above the wash basin.

After all this was done, she adjusted her expression and walked out of the bathroom with a smile, "My dear, you are back."

Seeing Lucy who was only wrapped in a bath towel, Stephen Steele blushed and turned his head deliberately, "Lucy, I have told you many times that girls should pay attention to the influence."

Stephen is fifty-three years old.

Lucy is fourteen years old.

Although the two are nominally a couple, Stephen has always regarded Lucy as his daughter.

Well.

Most of the time, she is treated as a daughter.

However, Lucy's thoughts were different from Stephen's. She truly loved this man who was nearly forty years older than her.

"We are husband and wife." Lucy smiled slightly.

Then, she suddenly remembered something and quickly put away her smile.

Stephen Steele, who was running around like a deer, didn't notice anything strange about his wife, and said softly: "I'm going to change clothes first."

After saying that, he arched his body and left without looking back.

Lucy sighed in both amusement and shyness.

Ten minutes later, the couple gathered in the restaurant and sat across from each other.

Lucy said sheepishly: "Sorry, Stephen, today."

After a pause, she made a random excuse, "I overslept this afternoon."

Stephen Steele, who was eating cold soup and cold bread, waved his hands indifferently, "It's time for you to grow, so you might as well sleep a little longer."

Lucy:.

Long body?

With my current figure, I can make you press the gun so hard that you don’t even dare to raise your head, okay?

On normal days, Lucy would definitely tease Stephen a few words to enhance the relationship between the couple.

But remembering the "saint's body" hidden in the bathroom, she pursed her lips and pretended not to care and asked about Stephen Steele's work.

Stephen said casually: "There is nothing much to say about the competition. Although it has only reached "STAGE 4", the team of Jero Zibelin and Jonny Joestar is already far ahead in the standings.

Diego Brando, the only one who could possibly pose a threat to them, joined that team for some reason."

‘Jonny Joestar’!

When she heard a certain name, Lucy's eyes lit up and she continued, "Speaking of Johnny Joestar, I am very interested in him."

Um?

Hearing this, Stephen's expression froze slightly.

Thinking carefully about everything about Johnny Joestar, he found that the boy was indeed good-looking, with blond hair and blue eyes. He was almost the template of many girls' dream man.

But that's it.

"Johnny Joestar has excellent riding skills and handsome appearance. Unfortunately, he is disabled." Stephen deliberately pointed out Johnny's flaws.

Lucy blinked.

She always felt that her husband seemed to have misunderstood something.

Stephen looked at Lucy, and while his heart ached, he also felt relieved.

There is no way for women to stay in college.

Shaking his head, he simply refused to do anything and said proactively: "Compared to Jonny Joestar, his cousin Jon Joestar is more suitable as a marriage partner. If you are interested, when the S.B.R competition comes to an end, , I can introduce you to him."

Lucy stared at Stephen Steele suspiciously.

That probably means

——Are you serious?

"I know that this day will come sooner or later." Stephen smiled lovingly, "I have already prepared for it."

Lucy:.

Taking a deep breath, she knew she couldn't hide it anymore.

Under Stephen's doubtful eyes, Lucy walked into the bathroom and brought back a cloth bag not long after.

Stephen Steele was confused and asked: "What is this?"

"Sacred bones." Lucy answered truthfully.

As she spoke, she opened the cloth bag and exposed two spines.

‘Click’

The spoon in Stephen Steele's hand suddenly fell into the bowl.

"Holy, Holy. Holy." He pointed at the two broken bones on the table, his teeth trembling and trembling.

Suddenly, Stephen Steele suddenly stood up and closed all the curtains in the house without saying a word.

Her husband looked like he was facing a formidable enemy, which made Lucy nervous.

She was like a child who had done something wrong, sitting still.

After repeatedly confirming that there was no one else at home and no monitoring equipment, Stephen quickly returned to the dining table and asked in a low voice: "How come you have the "saint's body"! ? "

“On the train, I overheard some intel and learned that there was more to the competition than it seemed.

After I came to Kansas City, I found a teacher who taught me lip reading. As a result, this afternoon, I happened to see Fannie Valentine talking to his secretary. "

"They said that a man named Ferdinand lost contact with them, and said that Johnny Joestar, who was carrying the "saint's body", was difficult to deal with. "

“Also, the ‘Saint’s Spine’ is at Green Tombstone just outside of Kansas City.”

"Originally, these are nothing, but Fannie Valentine's secretary said that you are a chess piece that can be replaced at any time. I was shocked and scared, thinking that you would be killed by them sooner or later, so I kept doing nothing and took advantage of the heavy rain. , arrived at the Green Tombstone on horseback, and happened to see the President’s men lying in the grave pit holding the holy bones.”

"So, I shot the guy and brought the holy bones back."

Stalking, monitoring, riding horses for dozens of miles in the rain, shooting, killing people and seizing bones.

Is this what a serious girl should do?

After listening to Lucy's words, Stephen Steele became numb.

So numb that I can't move at all.

He opened his mouth and was speechless.

After a long time, Stephen Steele pinched his eyebrows with a headache, "Is the pistol the one in the study?"

"yes."

"The horse you are riding is also my horse?"

"right."

Extinguishing the last trace of luck in his heart, Stephen Steele made a decision, "In this case, you can no longer live in this world."

Lucy was stunned for a moment and smiled miserably, "Did I cause you trouble? Well, if this is your judgment, then I am willing to follow it, because I am Lucy Steele and I love your wife deeply. "

Meeting Lucy's eyes, Stephen Steele seemed to want to explain something.

His lips moved and he smiled bitterly, "Don't be stupid, how could I really let you die.

But, you can only live if you are ‘dead’. "

Pointing to the "saint's body" on the table, Stephen Steele said in a deep voice: "You don't understand the value of the holy bones. For it, Fannie Valentine will do whatever it takes, let alone little people like you and me. Even if there are thousands of troops standing in front of him."

Halfway through, he looked at Lucy, "So, in order to eliminate the hidden danger, Lucy Steele must disappear from the world."

Lucy understood that her husband meant for her to fake death to avoid disaster.

"In a few days, I will arrange an accident and a new identity for you. At that time, you can directly take the "Saint's Remains" out of the city to find Johnny Joestar. "Stephen Steele said firmly: "He is the enemy of the president and someone worthy of reliance. "

"I won't leave!" Lucy was reluctant to leave her husband. "No one noticed me along the way. I want to stay with you!"

"Stop making trouble, this is the best way." Stephen Steele said with a rare serious face. "You must bring the holy bones to find Johnny Joestar!"

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu" Lucy covered her face and cried.

She finally realized how much trouble her impulse had brought to herself and her husband.

Stephen Steele sighed, walked to Lucy, and gently took her into his arms, "If everything goes well, these two saint's bones will be the lifeblood of our couple."

Lucy looked at her husband with tearful eyes, "Actually, there are three parts. Somehow, one part suddenly fused with my spine."

Stephen Steele:

Touching his wife's hair, he said: "From tomorrow on, you will not show up. I will announce to the public that you have contracted a skin disease. When Johnny Joestar's team enters the city, you will go to "STAGE 5" Let's wait for them on the only way. "

Lucy was silent.

It's late at night.

Outside, it was still raining heavily.

Five days later.

"Dear spectators, Gerard Zeppelin has crossed the finish line, and the section winner has been born!"

"Jon Joestar is right behind him."

"Next are Diego Brando, Johnny Joestar and Sand Man!"

"Wait a minute. Ted Khan, the Mongolian player, is here too. It's a pity that he didn't finish in the top five."

"The next one to cross the finish line is Kensuke Higashikata from Neon!"

"The "STAGE 4" with a total distance of 1,250 kilometers has changed greatly due to continuous heavy rains. There were a total of 3,678 runners at the start of the race. Among them, 1,786 people have chosen to give up the game. "

"The remaining contestants have now traveled across half of the continent and passed many dangerous levels. This is a reality that was impossible to predict before the game!"

"But Jello Zeppelin did it, Jonny Joestar did it, Diego Brando, Sando, Mandon Timm, Poklock, Ted Khan. They did it! "

"This is a victory for the athletes, a victory for the cowboys and riders, and a victory for humanity!"

"Everyone in the audience, cheers, and give your warmest applause to these warriors who are riding wildly!"

‘Crash! ’

On both sides of the main street in Kansas City, countless spectators applauded Jello and others.

On the high platform, Fannie Valentine's face was very ugly.

He stared intently at Johnny on the horse, with a sneer on his lips.

Jonny Joestar, how dare you walk into Kansas City right under my nose.

what is this?

Provocative?

Just thinking about it.

There was a 'clang', and Stephen Steele, who was not far away, suddenly fell to the ground.

Fannie Valentine glanced at him, pretending to be concerned: "Mr. Steele, please pay attention to rest."

"I'm so sorry, Mr. President." Stephen Steele, who had extremely obvious dark circles under his eyes, quickly stood up and bowed deeply, "My wife's condition has worsened recently, so..."

"Oh?" Fannie Valentine thought of Stephen Steele's petite and lovely wife, and became slightly more interested. "What disease is so serious?"

"It is a very rare acute skin disease. Although it is not contagious, it will ulcerate from head to toe." Stephen Steele squeezed out a few tears. "I'm afraid it won't be long before my wife and I are left to live in heaven." Two separated."

Stephen Steele was a ringleader in a circus when he was young and is well versed in performance techniques.

When President Valentine heard that such a blond beauty had such a strange disease, he immediately lost interest and said casually: "In that case, you should just concentrate on going home these days and spend the last journey with your wife."

Stephen Steele was secretly happy in his heart, but hesitant on his face, "But this is the S.B.R competition."

"The government will take care of everything for you."

Anyway, Stephen Steele's attitude and ability have always made him unhappy, so he simply took this opportunity to drive the old guy away. Fannie Valentine crossed his fingers on the coffee table, "What, you don't want to?"

Yes, I am so willing!

Stephen Steele almost shouted what was in his heart.

But when he met the president's cold eyes, he had to pretend to be lost and said, "So be it."

Three parts desolate, three parts depressed, three parts unwilling, and one part doubtful about life and the future.

Stephen Steele's superb performance easily fooled the patriotic president.

Fannie Valentine waved his hand, "Go ahead, your vacation starts now."

Stephen Steele lowered his head and walked slowly down the platform.

Instead of going to the public rest area to interact with the players and become familiar with them, he zigzagged to a stable.

There, there was a beauty with short hair waiting for a long time.

"Honey." Lucy, who had her hair cut short and her face smeared with dust, rushed over without thinking.

However, Stephen Steele shook his head, "Remember, you are Luke Bandruton now, and Lucy Steele is dead."

‘Bendruton’, Lucy’s original surname.

Lucy froze.

Stephen Steele handed Lucy the prepared map, player number, and participation certificate and other miscellaneous items, and said: "'STAGE 5' is a long-distance stage from Kansas City to Chicago. You start from the North Gate. Set off and stop at the location marked on the map. You will definitely be waiting for Johnny Joestar and the others. "

Lucy took it solemnly and nodded heavily, "I understand."

Perhaps feeling that the atmosphere was too heavy, Stephen Steele smiled pretending to be relaxed and said, "Don't be sad. When this incident passes, I will go to the destination to find you in New York.

I promise. "
