Our island owner is always playing dead

Greer breathed a sigh of relief, and asked again: "Then how did Commander-in-Chief Sullivan catch him?"

This is the question that Greer has been thinking about all the way.He led the soldiers to search in the forest for so long, it should be said that he cut off all the way out of the thieves, why did he still let him escape, and fled to the sea?If he drifted further away, would he be able to take the cinchona out?

Ye Limo said: "I haven't asked yet, I'm waiting for you to come and listen together. You rest for a while, and later listen to Sullivan talk about how he was caught."

Greer saluted and said, "Yes, Your Majesty."

When the time came, the butler led the servants to serve the dishes. Ye Limo entertained Sullivan and Greer to have dinner together. By the way, he also wanted to hear Greer talk about how he caught the thief.

Ye Limo's spacious and bright dining room was facing the sea, and Sullivan and Greer sat on both sides of Ye Limo, like his left and right arms.

One is the commander-in-chief of the army and the other is the commander-in-chief of the navy. They are indeed his very important reliance.

Once at the dinner table, before Ye Limo could speak, Greer asked Sullivan about catching the thief.

Sullivan said: "We encountered the Aussian navy at sea, and after making them retreat, we began to return."

This is to allow Ye Limo to follow up on the narration in the afternoon and learn about the entire voyage of the navy.

Greer couldn't care less about eating, and listened carefully to Sullivan's story.

"After traveling back for a day and five hours, we saw a floating object in the sea. We were very careful at that time, because we had entered the territorial waters of the heat island."

According to international agreements, a country's territorial waters are within [-] nautical miles from the coastline, except for this area. However, this sea area is very vast. Only the heat island is the closest, and it is an important channel and sea area for ships entering and leaving the heat island. So the heat island is unceremoniously designated as its own territory.

"When we got closer, we found out that it was a boat, and there was a person who was about to lose consciousness in it. We rescued him, and he said that he was a fisherman. He pushed off the shoreline, so he drifted as far away as the heat island."

Greer said angrily, "That liar!"

Sullivan was still very calm, and said: "Since he is a thief, he must not be a good person, so it is not surprising that he lied."

Ye Limo also felt that there was no need to be angry with this kind of person, so he said, "What's next?"

"After listening to his words, I didn't quite believe it at first, because it was too far away from the heat island, and it would take several days to float that far due to the propulsion of the waves. But the man hadn't been sun-dried yet, That means it didn't take that long, unless he rowed for a while by himself."

Ye Limo secretly admired Sullivan's careful thought. Although the wind and waves on the sea are unpredictable, there are still some truths that cannot be changed.

Sullivan continued: "I had people interrogated and searched his boat. I found several cinchona seedlings planted in small soil pots in the mezzanine of the boat. The seedlings grew well. Very energetic, I think, he is not willing to drink water, so he gave all the water to the cinchona seedlings."

Judging from this situation, cinchona should be very important and his goal, so he must ensure that a few seedlings are alive, otherwise it will be a waste of work.

I don't know what happened to that unlucky guy at sea, so he didn't have any fresh water, so he was seriously dehydrated.

After listening to Sullivan's narration, Greer said, "Commander Sullivan, you are very careful! Thank you very much for bringing him back, otherwise our search work will continue endlessly."

Sullivan nodded to accept his thanks, and said: "It is your and my joint responsibility to protect everything in the heat island."

Ye Limo concluded: "Indeed, the two of you are the two patron saints of the heat island. Because of your existence, we can ensure that the heat island continues to develop well in a peaceful environment."

After hearing this, Greer immediately felt relieved, which meant that Ye Limo would not blame him.

It's just that the cinchona seedlings were stolen, and the responsibility was still on the army soldiers. They didn't guard them well, which led to the theft of cinchona seedlings, which were equivalent to gold.

Greer wanted to make amends, so he said, "Leave it to me for the interrogation. I want to ask him where he escaped from, so we can strengthen our defenses so that this does not happen again." occur."

Ye Limo thought for a while, then looked at Sullivan. Sullivan glanced at Ye Limo, nodded and said, "This is the responsibility of your army, of course it can be handed over to you. But you can't interrogate him until he recovers."

Greer agreed, "Of course, Mr. Sullivan, his life is not important, what is important is the information in his mouth."

After getting the right to interrogate, Greer happily finished his dinner and left Ye Limo's palace in a good mood.

Only Ye Limo and Sullivan were left. Ye Limo was a little worried that Sullivan would alienate him, but Sullivan still treated him as before.

Of course, the feeling in Ye Limo's heart at this time is completely different. After learning about Sullivan's feelings for him, he can finally understand and understand Sullivan's intentions and affection, and understand how much he thinks about himself. thoughtful.

"This time, thank you very much for protecting such an important thing for Heat Island."

Sullivan said, "It is my duty, Your Majesty."

Ye Limo said: "Although it is your duty, it is also a credit. It cannot be ignored just because it is a duty. Let me give you a reward."

Sullivan was not very interested, because he felt that the reward would probably be gold coins or something. However, he did not lack gold coins, but he was missing a piece of his heart.

But facing Ye Limo, he would not refuse, so he said: "Thank you, Your Majesty, I am very happy to accept."

Ye Limo rolled his eyes, turned around and said, "Come with me."

Sullivan couldn't help being surprised, but he still followed.

When he came to Ye Limo's study, Ye Limo took out a piece of paper from the materials on his desk, picked up a pen and signed a name on it, saying: "This painting, I will give it to you."

Sullivan took it over and took a look. Unexpectedly, it was a portrait of himself in military uniform, heroic, tall, handsome, and the most eye-catching thing was the pair of blue eyes looking into the distance, which was very vivid.

Seeing the signature, Sullivan couldn't help trembling, and asked, "Your Majesty, did you draw this?"

Ye Limo nodded and asked, "Do you like it?"

Sullivan saluted and said: "I like it very much, my majesty the king. No one has ever painted me a portrait that satisfies me so much."

Ye Limo couldn't help coughing, and said, "Since you like it, I'll give it to you as a reward."

"I like this reward very much, Your Majesty the King."

Ye Limo curled his lips, he knew Sullivan would like it.

After the people of Raman Rado Island came to the heat island, they started the work of building stone houses.

This is the job that Ye Limo signed the document to agree to, in order to give these people some hope and path to live.Today, the first stone houses on the island are being built.

Sullivan was going to buy a stone house, so his log house was up for sale.Wooden houses are simple to build, but their service life is not as good as that of stone houses, so stone houses are more expensive.

Sullivan's house is a second-hand house. Although he doesn't live in many houses, the house is still very popular. As soon as it is listed, people want to buy it. This house is cheaper than a new wooden house.

Seeing that the other party was anxious to move into the wooden house, otherwise the family would continue to live in the shed, which would be very inconvenient, so Sullivan sold the house directly without lack of money.

So Sullivan is now selling the log house.The stone house was not yet built, and he had nowhere to go.

Ye Limo took the initiative to say: "You can stay in the palace, you can choose a room you like."

Sullivan was not polite either, and nodded in agreement.

Ye Limo still had work to do, so Sullivan went to the guest room first.

Returning to the room, lighting the lamp, Sullivan sat under the lamp, carefully looking at the portrait of himself.

Hiring painters to paint portraits has been popular for a long time. Many nobles like to ask painters to paint portraits of themselves and their families, and the portraits will be hung in the house.

Sullivan also had portraits, but none of them pleased and moved him so much.

This small portrait was drawn by Ye Limo, with simple brush strokes, not as professional as a painter, nor so delicate and exquisite, but Sullivan just liked it very much. He felt that those eyes were exactly the same as his own.

Ye Limo has never asked Sullivan to be a model, which means that this painting was drawn stroke by stroke by relying on memory after Ye Limo observed Sullivan.How could it be possible to draw such vivid portraits if he hadn't paid so much attention?

Thinking of this, Sullivan's mood suddenly brightened, as if the sea breeze blows and the house is cool, and his heart is full of joy.

His Majesty, it's not that he doesn't like himself that much, and he doesn't pay attention to himself. He has feelings for himself.

Rubbing the portrait, Sullivan thought to himself, why is His Majesty the King so cute, it is hard to let go.

After looking at the portrait for a long time, Sullivan carefully put it away. Tomorrow, he will find a photo frame to frame the painting and hang it in his new house.

Ye Limo downstairs also knew that he must have flirted with Sullivan, and he also scolded himself secretly, why did he do that, when he confessed his love back then, for some reason, he was calm, and when Sullivan failed to confess, he tried to keep a distance, In order to avoid that when he was bored, he himself would have some uncomfortable feelings.

This is really a terrible feeling, Ye Limo patted his face, it turned out that he would do this again, it seems that he doesn't know himself well enough.
