Reborn As a Pirate
One hundred and forty six fears
The study is very dark.
Although the spring is bright outside the house, the light cannot penetrate into the house because of the drawn curtains. Naturally, the candles on the chandelier are not enough to replace the skylight. All that can be done is to make the house visible.
Earl Galvez sat dignifiedly on the sofa in the middle of the room, with his back to Lorraine, and behind him stood the bloodless Knight Arrow with his arms hanging, smiling at Lorraine.
Thanks to Daniel's superb medical skills, two of the six guards who were injured that day successfully avoided postoperative infection, and Arrow was one of them.
According to Daniel, his wound heals quickly, and the fixation can be removed in two months at most without leaving any future troubles.
On the other side, the sailors who were treated roughly by Lorraine also carried them over with their lives, and only one of them had a slight infection, which made Lorraine sigh with emotion for the miracle of life.
That's off topic.
Daniel's treatment pulled Arrow out of the gate of hell, and the loyal knight felt deeply in his heart, and he took Lorraine and his party as friends, especially with the rigorous Karen, and their friendship developed rapidly.
Seeing Lorraine enter the door, he smiled and hinted with his eyes that Lorraine should sit opposite the count.
This gentle attitude further confirmed Lorraine's guess. The earl told him to ask Lorraine Xingshi for business, not because of Katerina.
Lorraine became more calm, adjusted the dress on her body, and bowed in front of the earl: Lord earl, I won't see you in two days.
The tea that Besephone made is delicious, do you like it?
Lorraine shook his head helplessly: I heard that it is the latest Kenya, but unfortunately, I have never been able to taste good or bad tea.
Mr. Kenway, who doesn't know how to drink tea... the earl played with the emerald on his thumb, Since you woke up this morning, you have changed three sets of dresses, and last night you refused Besephone's arrangement to serve you in bed Maid. May I ask, what noble family do you come from?
People need packaging. Lorraine smiled, sat upright on the sofa, and hugged Erlang's legs. Kenya black tea is bright in color and sweet in taste. I like to drink it with one spoonful of sugar and two spoonfuls of milk. This will not destroy the aroma of the tea itself, but also effectively remove the astringency of the tea.
He spread his hands and put on a face: Look, if necessary, I can also understand black tea very well. It's just that the tea is in my mouth, whether I like it or not, it will not affect my respect for you and your wife. It's not necessary.
The count must have watched Lorraine for a long time,
Suddenly smiled: You are right.
Thank you for your approval.
The count waved his hand: I heard that you have a beautiful first mate named...Donna Linka, Spanish?
yes.
Why should a woman be given such an important position?
Because she is suitable. Lorraine didn't want to answer. She has rich sailing experience, is familiar with the Caribbean situation, and has a good ship. She is willing to regard me as the captain and keep her own place.
Stay safe? the count was surprised for a moment, This is the most unique adjective I've ever heard used for pirates,
The atmosphere froze suddenly.
Lorraine looked into the earl's eyes calmly, and the earl looked back without avoiding, all silent.
The count took the initiative to break the silence: What? Can't think of a sophistry at the moment?
No, I just didn't expect you to bring it up so bluntly.
Because I don't like to beat around the bush. The count stood up proudly and walked towards the bar, What do you want to drink?
Whiskey on the rocks, thanks.
There was the sound of ice cubes colliding with glasses behind him, and Lorraine was sitting peacefully on the sofa, while Arrow kept winking at him, probably to let him confess and be lenient.
Korraine didn't know what she had to confess.
He has a lot of secrets in his heart, and the earl who can tell the earl should know it all. If the earl doesn't know, Lorraine doesn't intend to tell him.
With nothing else to do, he began to speculate on the reason why the count made the room so dark.
He may not like sunlight.
This conjecture is unlikely, because human beings are born with an attribute towards light. What's more, the windows in the study are located in an excellent position, which not only ensures enough light, but also does not have an angle of direct sunlight.
Then he is avoiding something.
Pierce's shot from 150 meters away added one or even a few hunters to the assassin gang for no reason. The earl had captured assassins and old tavern staff in his hands, which means that he should figure it out now. Pierce's shot It's not that the shot missed, but it was intentional to startle the horse, which was extremely accurate.
Lorraine didn't know exactly when the concept of a sniper first appeared, but in terms of the current world, the French and Americans had already raised the threat of hunters infinitely.
The Americans even have a special Kentucky hunter squad. On the battlefield in Saratoga, Timothy Murphy, the ace shooter of this squad, shot and killed the British general Simon Fraser 300 meters away. , Completely established the victory of this key battle.
Therefore, the greatest possibility is that Earl Galvez was afraid of the hunters who might be hiding in the woods. In order to prevent these elusive gods of death from catching him, he pulled up the curtains and hid himself in secret.
Fear tormented him.
In this game, he couldn't last long.
After a while, the earl returned to the sofa with two glasses of wine in his hand, and put one of them in front of Lorraine: Tell me, Mr. Kenway, what made you decide to leave the land and float to the sea?
There is no particular reason, I just want to eat some clean food, buy a house that can shelter from the wind and rain, and live a decent life.
So you dropped everything and went to Port of Spain, where you were lucky enough to get a ship and a brave crew?
Father said, don't call him by his first name. Lorraine abruptly elicited a passage from the Bible, Father protects my destiny, urgently needs me, and fulfills my wishes.
All glory to God?
Otherwise, I can't explain my good luck. After all, I haven't been out at sea for a long time. Lorraine spread his hands, I firmly believe that I have God's favor.
God's favor... the earl held the wine glass and murmured the word solemnly, Perhaps the so-called truth is really that simple. We have an omnipotent Lord, and he is the embodiment of all miracles.
The earl's faith is very pious, which is the information Lorraine has received before.
Looking at it now, he has made good use of this point, and it is easier for fanatics to communicate with fanatics. Lorraine's pretentious words are only of reference value in the eyes of fanatics.
The atmosphere of the meeting became relaxed and pleasant.
The count relaxed his sitting position, shook his glass and looked at Lorraine: Mr. Kenway, what do you think of me?
Lorraine deliberated for a while, then softly uttered two words: Joan of Arc.
Miss Saintess?
The saint gave everything she had to France, but she didn't get what she deserved. Her experience was very similar to yours. From the moment I received the news, I firmly believed that someone needed to stand up against the Duke of Bedford. Instead of letting such people send you and France into the abyss of defeat.
Why didn't you notify me before it happened?
I can't see you.
Lorraine took out a small wooden sign from his pocket, which he took out during the planning process. It said [281], that is, on the earl's appointment schedule, there were 280 smugglers in front of Lorraine.
The count stared blankly at the wooden sign and took a deep breath: If I hire you and your crew as my temporary guards, if... what do you want?
Charleville Rifle. Lorraine said decisively, I want my people to go all out for you. I need a suitable reason.
