Mystery: The Stars Returner

Audrey and others briefly discussed the plan for a while, and then asked Xio to go out to attract attention first. Fors was responsible for rescuing Xio at any time to avoid any accidents. Audrey was responsible for sneak attacks, and Susie was responsible for getting around.

After they finished discussing the plan, two ships carrying pirates also approached the Hope and began to board the ship. Their unhesitating and reckless actions made Xio not have much hope for this group of pirates.

It is estimated that among this group of pirates, there is not even one on the wanted list with a reward.

The cook and maid stood at a distance, watching calmly, with no intention of stepping forward.

Xio's appearance immediately attracted the attention of the pirates aboard the Hope.

Soon, many pirates commented on her appearance and height.

When someone mentioned that her height was a pity, Xio couldn't control her anger. She just shouted. The pirate's mental world was like being beaten with a heavy hammer, and he couldn't control his knees. , some pirates who were less able to bear it already had tears in their eyes and began to talk about the various sins they had committed in their lives.

In terms of interrogation, the trial method has a natural advantage. Even a simple deep roar has the power of a Buddhist lion's roar. It can really make people reveal their feelings and change their minds.

"You are the only ones who dare to comment on my height!"

Xio snorted coldly, took out the long whip around his waist, put the head and tail together first, pulled hard twice, making a snapping sound, and then whipped it towards the pirate closest to him.

Snapped!

The pirate's face was left with a string of bright red whip marks, and he cried out in pain while covering his bleeding cheek.

Xio flexibly retracted the whip and whipped it at the other pirates, which soon caused a wail of pain.

These pirates were ordinary people. After being frightened by Xiu's deep shout, they lost their ability to fight.

Someone wanted to rush up and hug Xio's body, trying to use the natural strength gap between men and women to suppress the long whip in Xio's hand.

Unfortunately, before he could touch Xio's dress, he was knocked to the ground by a whip.

"On such a ship, there is an arbiter..."

A figure walked out from behind the pirates. From the respect and crowding of the surrounding pirates, it was not difficult to tell that he was the captain of the pirate group.

Before he finished speaking, he, including him, and the other twenty or so pirates who boarded the Hope, were instantly controlled by their minds and froze in place motionless.

"Controlling so many people in one breath, Miss Audrey, you are so handsome!" Xio couldn't help but cheer for Miss Audrey in his heart.

"..."

Seeing that the situation was completely under control, Forsi, who was still hiding in the dark, was speechless. She seemed to have played no role at all.

In this case, how will the reward be divided later?

What made her feel even more ashamed was that Susie, who had been in her field of vision just now, had disappeared. She must have gone to implement the plan of sneak attack from behind.

"It would be too dangerous for Susie to act alone. I have to help it!"

"Yes, it is like that."

Forsi decided to pay attention and sneaked from the Hope to the two pirate ships.

This is a small pirate group, with a total number of less than fifty people, including a dozen handymen and non-combatants responsible for the kitchen.

After being wiped out on the Hope, the pirates who remained on the ship posed no threat at all.

After Hugh and Audrey finished dealing with all the pirates on board the ship and tied them up, Hugh held a blood-stained whip and smiled kindly, and quickly extorted all the private money from these pirates.

"Where are Forsi and Susie?"

"It's time to go to the finishing touches."

Hugh and Audrey went to the pirate ship together. On one of the ships, all the crew members fell into a deep sleep. When they got to the end, Susie's voice was vaguely heard.

It was lying on the sofa in the captain's cabin at the moment. Two mind-controlled crew members were serving it like a god. They took out the best food on the ship to entertain Susie. One of them was still kneeling in front of the sofa. , devoutly massaging Susie.

"...I really enjoy it."

Xio was filled with emotion. Susie was able to deal with the people on this ship so easily. Her strength was also very good. She didn't know how Miss Audrey trained her.

When they arrived on another boat, Forsi was standing at the stern of the boat in a trance.

She had searched carefully and found nothing valuable on the boat.

When the three people and one dog returned to the ship, in addition to finding about 200 gold coins in cash and 100 gold pounds, there were only some less valuable goods.

Xio took out all the pirate wanted posters he had collected and began to search them one by one. He actually found a reward related to this pirate group.

Jeroke, the leader of the Yehui pirate group, has a bounty of 500 gold pounds. He has robbed merchant ships many times with ruthless methods and has seven or eight lives on hand.

"The name is not bad, but the bounty is a little low." Xio sighed with a little regret.

Audrey didn't care about this. She was just thinking about the huge gap between ordinary people and extraordinary people.

She hadn't exerted much force, but the spiritual world of these pirates couldn't bear it. Such an adventure was too simple.

"What to do with these pirates?" Hugh asked.

"Leave it to the official organization." Audrey answered naturally.

Forsi coughed lightly and said, "Miss Audrey, this is at sea. We can't dock at any time."

In fact, the best way is to kill all these pirates. There will be basically no innocent people, but in front of Miss Audrey, she will not make such a bloody suggestion.

Audrey realized this and fell silent, but finally decided to hand them over to the official organization when they arrived at the next port.

She couldn't decide on the other options.

Seeing their hesitation, the pirates began to compete with each other on their acting skills, all telling how they had no choice but to join the pirate group.

One family here has an old mother to take care of, and there is an old father who is seriously ill and paralyzed in bed. There are also several children in the family who need to be fed...

Truth and lies intertwined, trying to confuse Audrey and others.

Unfortunately, it is very difficult to lie in front of an Extraordinary person in the audience.

Xio just snorted coldly, and beheaded the leader of their pirate group. The spurting blood immediately silenced all the pirates, and they did not dare to commit misfortune at will.

Hastur just watched from a distance and had no intention of helping them finish the matter. Let this be regarded as the first lesson in Audrey's adventurous career.

……

Gambling was an alluring pastime, especially among pirates who hung their heads on their belts year round.

Drinking, lust, and gambling are the best ways to relax after they return from plundering at sea.

In order to earn the heavy gold pounds in the pockets of pirates who returned from successful plunder, some ports specially built a gold-selling cave for gambling, fun and entertainment.

Poole Port is such a port that specializes in providing various high-quality services to pirates. One makes money and the other enjoys it, a perfect match.

Here, a woman is likely to be the mistress of dozens of pirates at the same time. As long as her lover is not a member of the same pirate group, not many pirates will be entangled in this matter.

After all, they may have other temporary mistresses in other ports. At sea, not many people would care about such things.

There were indeed many pirates who cared about it at first, and there were even duels for this reason. After more than ten rounds of duels and screening, the remaining pirates no longer cared.

Of course, there are also many girls who fall in love with a certain pirate, and eventually marry and have children with the pirate. They may be deceived, or they may simply like him.

But one thing remains the same, no matter how you pull out a handful of shining gold coins from a pirate's pocket.

Tenur is a pirate who likes to spend all his gold coins here.

He is not an ordinary pirate, he is the second mate of the famous Firefox Pirates. Their captain is Granham, known as the Swift Firefox.

Just two days ago, their captain, Swift Firefox, was nailed to the mast by a pirate hunter. His flamboyant red hair eventually turned dull.

When he thought of the ferocious appearance of the pirate hunter, he couldn't help but tremble in his heart, and he often woke up in the middle of the night.

That was the legendary pirate hunter Gehrman Sparrow, known as the pirate nemesis.

Not to mention the captain of their Firefox pirate group, even the pirate general will be hunted by him if he is not careful. He is the most active pirate hunter in recent times.

Fortunately, at that time, he realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly took part of the captain's wealth and left quickly in a small boat.

With money, the only place he could think of was here.

After all, without the protection of the pirate group, he could easily become a favorite in the eyes of other pirates, and his death might be easier than finishing a bowl of noodles.

It's better to come here and enjoy yourself before you die.

He spent three days and two nights in the hotel and found it a bit boring, so he went to the casino here instead.

When he came out of the casino a few days later, the gold coins in his pocket had shrunk a lot.

But it still allows him to live a quite luxurious life.

Late at night, he held a bottle of rum given away by the casino in his hand, and while drinking, he danced briskly, and the heels of his shoes made a clicking sound against the stone paved road by the sea.

While he was thinking about where to go for fun tomorrow, a figure wearing ragged yellow clothes appeared in front of him.

Just a pair of eyes made him half awake, and his eyes changed from blurry to solemn.

Having once walked on the line between life and death, he felt a surge of fear from the depths of his heart at the appearance of this figure in ragged yellow clothes.

That figure just stood there quietly, with his back to him, but he gave the impression of being extraordinarily tall, and even the light of the crimson moon in the sky seemed dimmed by his presence.

The tattered yellow clothes, the mysterious existence operating in the middle of the night, or is someone pretending to be a ghost?
