Pirate Archon

Douglas bowed slightly and, like everyone around him, saluted the Osiris family's carriage and horses.No matter his expression or movements, there is nothing abnormal at all.

The young man was not surprised at all why Haier appeared here, nor was he worried that he would seek revenge on him.

Because he had known for a long time that the name Haier originally belonged to two people.

More specifically, "Haier" who manages the fish business in the slums was originally a pair of brothers.

The elder brother, Hel. Copernicus, was well-educated and traveled around the wealthy areas to serve the Osiris family all year round.

His younger brother Hale Faraday was once a sailor on a long voyage, and he stayed in the slums to manage related industries.

This matter is not a secret in the city, but in the West District, few people know about it.

Fortunately, with the help of his special ability of intelligence gathering, Douglas learned the inside story in advance and laid out the entire plan accordingly.

Helge: "Open the gate guard, we still have important things to deal with today."

"Yes, sir, but before that, I have something I have to report to you."

Hearing this, Helge pushed up his monocle and naturally looked past the guards in the control tower to Douglas and the prisoners behind him.

Helge: "Who are they?"

"The subordinate is about to report, in fact"

According to Douglas' previous description, the guard honestly informed Helge about the fire last night.Of course, in this version, they can ignore their own dereliction of duty and try their best to shift the responsibility for the accident onto the uncivilized "mob".

Throughout the whole process, Douglas didn't even raise his head once.

If this action can be compared to a big drama, then this moment is the final preparation before the climax begins.

The boy's small body succumbed to the power and struggled with the huge Osiris family. Even if he risked his life to resist, he couldn't even make a splash.

However, this is also the charm of drama. Before the curtain falls, no one knows who will lead the next dialogue.

So Douglas just waited, waiting for the most suitable opportunity, waiting for the moment he took the stage.

Helge: "You said the fishing ground was burned down?"

"Yes, sir. If you want to know the details, we have brought the witnesses."

The guard stepped aside tremblingly and signaled the others to push Douglas forward.

Brother Helge: "Raise your head."

"Yes, Master Haier."

Douglas obeyed the order and used his natural acting skills to simulate a slightly panicked look in his eyes as he looked at Helge in a tuxedo.

Smacking lips, frowning, rubbing hands.

He noticed the anxiety revealed in the other person's micro-expression. There had been such a big flaw in the fishery. The first one to report to him should have been Haldi. But at this moment, this role was replaced by Douglas, which was somewhat disappointing. He had some bad guesses.

Brother Hel: "You know me"

Douglas: "Of course, Mr. Haier, we just agreed on the details of picking up the goods today, right?"

Having said this, the young man took another step back in time: "Yesterday's fire was really too big. Not only was our warehouse completely burned down, but your industry also suffered heavy losses. The fishermen who were harmed by these scum can all see it." It was they who lit the fire.”

"My industry" Helge tightened his cane, of course he knew

The young man in front of him probably confused him with his younger brother, but now, he had no time to correct these details.

"Speak more clearly"

Douglas: "Yes, last night someone saw Scarface leading people to set fire to all the fish stalls' warehouses. Your warehouse was also affected by the fire. Judging from the situation after the fire was extinguished this morning, I'm afraid all buildings They are all within the scope of the damage. Fortunately, you are fine."

"enough"

Helge swung his cane hard and hit Douglas in the face with a bang.

The boy who didn't dodge at all was knocked down by the crutch. After the initial numbness ended, pain covered his cheek with warm blood.

"The guards will lock these people up for me immediately and seal off the slum area west of the bridge, and then send a team of people to the island for me."

"It's an adult"

Helgo issued the order angrily, and of course the people present did not dare to disobey. They locked Douglas up with other prisoners, and then officially began to blockade the connecting bridge.

Brother Helge: "Come here, send the eldest lady home immediately. It's very unsafe in the slums now."

"Yes"

"Wait, everyone, stop for me."

Helge was giving instructions, but before the carriage could adjust its direction, the voice of the eldest lady of the Osiris family suddenly came from the gorgeous cart.

As the daughter of the largest mafia family on Crescent Island, Osiris Fleira didn't care at all about topics such as fires and damage areas, and he had no interest in the boy who was beaten away by Haier.

She has lived in a honey jar since she was a child. She has long been accustomed to a life of being served by everyone. The life and death of the poor naturally has nothing to do with her. However, it is not without reason that she did not hesitate to come to the boundary of the bridge today.

As usual, the protagonist of tonight's birthday party is of course Miss Ferrara herself.

For this banquet, she specifically asked her father for permission to personally go to the famous pearl producing area in the West Sea to select the most suitable jewelry to be inlaid in the crown.

Miss Flira has been looking forward to this for a long time, and Hale asking her to turn back now will undoubtedly offend the daughter of the Osiris family.

Fleila: "Haier, who do you think you are and what authority do you have to order me?"

"Forgive me, please atone for your sins. Please don't misunderstand me. Miss, your servant is just worried."

Facing the real direct line of the Osiris family, Helge, who was king and domineering in front of ordinary people, immediately adjusted his attitude. Like a loyal old dog, he knelt down nervously in front of Fleila, not daring to go any further. words and deeds.

"What's there to worry about?" Fleila didn't show her face, but knocked on the window of the carriage in protest. "Are there any idiots on this island who dare to offend Osiris?"

"No, the honor of the family is supreme."

"Then open the iron door and proceed as planned. You can investigate the fire yourself. I don't need the servant's advice when I choose jewelry."

"Miss, think twice about your safety being far more important than the life and death of your servants. Although I don't believe that those filthy bastards will be detrimental to you, after the fire, the environment in the slums will definitely be much more complicated than usual. You Your servant really doesn’t want those wrecks to dirty your car.”

Haier kept kneeling down, his forehead almost touching the ground.

He knew very well that if he did not find other excuses, no one here could stop the eldest lady from entering the slums today. Fortunately, as a veteran who had served the Osiris family for many years, he knew how to speak in an appropriate way.

Sure enough this time, Miss Ferrara didn't insist anymore, and the "Princess" carriage stopped at the bridge.
