Even when Elizabeth woke up, she would not smile at him again, the bright smile in her memory would no longer be there.

Some things, once broken, can never be put back together, never the same again.

He looked up, recalling the past involuntarily. At that time, Elizabeth would listen to his stories obsessively, would laugh and say that he was like a flaming sun, would sing for him, and maybe even say that she liked him.

【Mr. Tiger, I like you. 】

Knowing that even if it came true, what Elizabeth said about liking didn’t mean that, but his heart was tightened the moment he fantasized about Elizabeth saying this to him, and the force seemed to remind him: Come on. !Stop pretending, you've already fallen in love with this human girl.

My own... When did I start?

"Elizabeth..."

Scar

In the early days when the Sun Pirates were established, everyone was very active. They sent back all the navy that asked them to hand over all their slaves. Of course, this also gave Tiger a little headache. He almost turned Aaron and Jin Dangping into problem children. Educated, although they did both when they were kids.

"If we killed someone, wouldn't we be the same as those guys?!" He would say that every time, but Aaron and the others would always have a next time. Jinbe doesn't like humans, and Aaron always thinks that murlocs A race superior to humans, he takes everything he does for granted.

Taking human life as a toy to please himself, he has seen this kind of behavior too much.

He hates this, so he reprimands his brother as hard as he can every time.

But when he was alone, he had to admit that he also had a violent beast in his heart, just like Aaron now, all he can do now is to lock it in the prison deep in his heart, but it is too big , maybe he will break out of the cage soon, gnaw away his sanity, and then let him do things crazier than wild beasts.

Tiger felt that he could not control the huge beast that hated humans. He could feel that in the near future even the cage would become useless, but Elizabeth could, even if she was unconscious until now, because as long as she saw her, All the restlessness in his heart would disappear, and the wild beast that was always roaring and rushing into the cage would also be surprisingly quiet.

He could feel that it was also looking at the sleeping woman on the bed. At this time, it would hide its sharp minions, put away its hostility, and even wag its tail carefully, like a docile pet dog, fishy. The blood-red eyes seemed to be expecting something.

After he realized this, he took time to see Elizabeth every day, and every time he just sat by the bed and talked to her, about what happened today, but he didn't even have the courage to touch her hair. It seemed that when the beast looked at Elizabeth, it couldn't even growl in a low voice, for fear of disturbing her or scaring her.

【Mr. Tiger, I hate you! 】

Yes, Elizabeth she hates me because I ruined her life and killed her father.Thinking this way in Tiger's heart, Elizabeth's heart-piercing scolding at that time was in his ears, and the beast in his heart heard it and curled up in a corner, so that he could not hear any movement.

But this is a balance point for him, he stands at that point, stares at the abyss, while being careful not to fall into the abyss, he also looks forward to the moment of falling.

Three years passed in a blink of an eye, and Elizabeth still fell asleep peacefully, breathing lightly as if she might stop at any moment, but she was indeed alive.

This made Tiger a little bit disappointed, but also a little distorted. He was grateful that he would spend two hours every day talking about something beside his bed, such as the nautical diary he wrote, which had fallen very high, and what interesting things they encountered today. For example, he found a few more adventure stories today...

He thought that maybe when Elizabeth would wake up from the wine, even if she was woken up by him, it would be good, after all, she had been asleep for so long that he almost forgot the emerald green.

"Elizabeth, your hair has grown again." Although she fell asleep, time did not ignore her because of this. It not only lengthened the girl's long hair, but also took away the girl's immaturity.

Tiger's eyes slid down from those eyebrows to the pale lips. The original infatuation turned into self-blame. In the end, he still didn't have the courage to touch her. He just thought about the cool climate of the nearby Spring Island and put her body Pulling up the quilt for a few more minutes, he was about to leave, but just as he stepped out of the door on his back foot, he was hit on the head by a paper fan a few times.

"You want to cover the other girl's prickly heat, don't you!"

"Isn't the weather here cold..."

"It's cold, just take out the quilt you used for the winter!" After finishing speaking, she slapped the fan again, and Sister Martha knew that her strength was not enough now, so she could only use another method to make the kid feel uncomfortable, "I won't do it for the past two days. Go in again!"

"... Oh." Tiger's shoulders immediately collapsed.

Jinbe, who was looking for someone while watching the time, just saw this scene, and only expressed that he was helpless. Almost all the people on this boat were taken by Sister Martha, and even Aaron, who had the worst temper, did not dare to speak back.

He could only watch the captain finish being beaten before he said, "Boss, there are people on the island who want to see you."

The one who wanted to see him was the monk who had escaped from the holy place and was now reciting Buddhism and eating vegetarian food. When they saw him coming, they called out a brown-haired child. Tiger noticed that he was obviously trembling nervously, but his face always had a flattering look on his face. smile.

The kid was a slave before.

Looking at the fake smile, he quickly came to this conclusion, and the monks also lifted the clothes behind him, revealing the slave's logo.

"Although this child has escaped, her hometown is far away from here. There is no way we can send her back with our strength, so we would like to ask you."

This is a girl?

He looked at the other party's messy hair, old clothes that didn't fit well, and finally saw some girls on the face, but it didn't mean that no one could see that it was a female doll.

"What's your name?" He walked over and knelt down in front of the girl.The other party was afraid of him, but his smile remained the same, and the way he didn't even take a half step back reminded him of Elizabeth, so he couldn't help but soften his voice, "You don't have to be afraid, I won't hurt you."

"My name is... Kerla, thank you very much for saving me, thank you so much."

"Is that Kerla? I see." He accepted the matter, but the brothers on the boat... I guess Aaron would be the first to quit. "My name is Fisher Tiger, don't worry, I will take you home."

He stretched out his hand to the little girl, watched her swallow a mouthful of saliva, and put her small but calloused hand up with some trembling.

When I got off the boat, I was alone, but when I got back to the boat, there was an extra human kid behind me, but at least there was a precedent, and everyone would not drop their jaws on the ground when they saw it, but they still had to ask what they should ask.

"Boss, this brat..." She was a beautiful girl before, even if she was a human being, even if she was unconscious, they would accept the infatuated look of their boss as the captain's wife. Now here is such a brat...

"Her name is Kerla, and she will stay on the boat for a while. I plan to send her back to her hometown." Tiger simply pushed the villain forward, "Let me introduce myself."

"I... My name is Kerla, I am 11 years old, hello."

As he thought, Aaron was the first one to erupt, yelling the same words as three years ago, "Even if he is a kid, he is still a human being. It's really annoying. Why should humans be on the same boat as us?"

"It's just by the way." Jinbe replied, and didn't remind Aaron any more. There is another human being on this ship, and that is their captain's wife (although Brother Tai didn't admit it, but there are many people in the past three years. They all saw it), and had been on the ship for three years.

Tiger leaned on the side and looked at the girl surrounded by crowds, who was scared but still smiling, thinking about something in his heart, so Aaron didn't stop him when he punched her down. She would cry and make noise under this punch, but the fact is that she stood up with a smile, and when the nosebleed dripped, she tore off the fabric of her trousers and wiped the deck, saying that she would keep working, and asked them not to kill her.

The brothers on the boat were all stunned, and only he and the brothers who were also trampled in the mud by the [Dragon Hoof] were the only ones who could watch this scene calmly.

Jinbe couldn't persuade her, so he sat in front of her. Although he didn't like humans, what he saw was just a cub that hadn't grown up. He tried his best not to speak so bluntly, and asked: Are we scary?

"Yes, but I wanted to see my mother, so even though I was scared, I mustered up the courage to get on the boat."

If you really have the courage, then stop living like a slave!

"Bring her to my room." He couldn't help but said when the girl begged not to kill him, and his original plan to slowly change the child had been thrown behind him.

He went back to the room and closed the door of the other brothers, only him and the girl who was still smiling were left in the room, but when she saw him burning the brazier, even the strength to stand disappeared.

The charcoal was quickly burned red, and sparks burst out from time to time. The subtle sound was enough to bring back the dark memory in the girl's heart, but he knew that this was just a temporary pain. If she didn't do it, she would have to go away for the rest of her life. out
