Pirates: From the Expulsion of Marie Gioia

But soon, Rayleigh returned to normal.

He raised the bottle in his hand and drank all the remaining rum.

With the sound of gurgling, the wine bottle in his hand immediately became empty.

Lei Li adjusted his glasses and said slightly drunk.

"Alas, I'm out of rum again."

Hearing his words, Xia Qi took out a bottle of wine from behind the counter.

She slowly placed the wine in her hand on the table in front of her.

Raleigh noticed her movement and his eyes lit up.

Immediately, he reached out and grabbed the wine bottle on the table.

Just when his hand was about to touch the wine bottle, Xia Qi's hand was on the wine bottle first.

Immediately afterwards, Xia Qi leaned back on the chair lazily.

After exhaling a smoke ring, she spoke directly and softly.

"It's easy to drink. Help me find out what's going to happen recently?"

"After all, this is important information, and it can sell a lot of Pele."

Hearing her words, Raleigh shook his head helplessly.

It was really hard for him to resist the temptation to drink.

However, investigating this matter is not generally difficult.

After a long silence, he said calmly.

"For this reason, I can investigate."

"But it's hard to say what can be found out in the end."

"After all, the admirals of the navy have come here."

Xia Qi nodded slightly, and took another sharp puff of the cigarette in her mouth.

As the smoke spread, she said crisply.

"It's okay, a little is enough."

After saying this, she threw the rum in her hand in Rayleigh's direction.

Seeing the wine bottle flying towards him, Lei Li chuckled, and then slowly stretched out his right hand.

With a snap, the wine bottle landed firmly in his hand.

Seeing that the rum was in hand, Lei Li disappeared into the tavern in a blink of an eye.

At the same time, what he said also reached Xia Qi's ears.

"Hahaha, good wine."

"Don't worry, I'll go investigate."

Xia Qi stared at the direction he was leaving, and a smile could not help but appear on the corner of her mouth.

Immediately, said softly.

"Heh~, Raleigh, why are you running so fast?"

"Then I will wait for your good news.",

After saying this, she picked up the napkin on the table again and wiped the cup in her hand.

In this way, Xia Qi's extortion bar returned to its former deserted appearance.

There are no customers in the bar, which is the norm here.

After all, Xia Qi's extortion bar was genuine extortion.

Therefore, pirates who have been fooled once will basically not come here for the second time.

They will come only if they want to inquire about some urgent information.

Even if they wanted to use force, they couldn't beat Xia Qi as the proprietress.

The purpose of Xia Qi opening the bar is to pass the boring time.

As a person who has experienced the previous era, she has long regarded everything very lightly.

In the end, in this bar, only the sound of her wiping the cup was left.

As for Rayleigh, who had already left the tavern, he stood on a taller building, looking down.

He narrowed his eyes slightly and began to think about what happened recently.

And he murmured in his mouth.

"Let me think about it."

"There must be something recently that I have overlooked."

At this time, the evening wind blew past slightly, disturbing the hair on Lei Li's forehead and awakening his train of thought.

Feeling the cool evening breeze, he opened his eyes wide and said with some enlightenment.

"I thought of the key point."

"It seems that a few days ago, my knowledge and domineering gave me a dangerous reminder."

"It seems that there is more than one admiral in the Chambord Islands now."

Thinking of this, Raleigh looked at the distant scenery.

After a while, he raised the wine in his hand, took a sip, and then said leisurely.

"Really, it's getting more and more interesting."

"Does the navy want to clean up the island's pirates? No, definitely not."

"Then there is only one final result left. He has to deal with a strong opponent."

"Worthy of such a lineup, apart from those guys, there should be only fallen angels left."

After getting this result, Raleigh laughed out loud.

"Hahaha, what about that kid?"

"Now that the investigation is over, I'll go and have a good time. Anyway, Xia Qi is not in a hurry."

After saying this, with the evening wind blowing again, his figure also disappeared in place.

Soon, Rayleigh came to the famous casino in Chambord Islands.

Immediately afterwards, he took out a few Baileys from his arms.

Looking at the noisy crowd in front of him, he silently observed every detail.

After half a ring, he began to place bets.

Since living in seclusion here, his hobbies have been drinking and gambling.

After all, the life of a retiree is always about having fun.

But every time he gambled, Raleigh never used his knowledge and domineering power.

Because if you do that, you will lose a lot of fun.

Even if he won the money in the end, he didn't bother to take it.

With this mentality, he wins and loses every day.

In the eyes of other gamblers, Rayleigh is just an addicted old man.

Just like that, time slipped slowly through his fingers.

Happily, he made a small fortune today.

He put the won Bailey into his arms, and then said with a smile.

"It seems that today's luck is good, and I made money for the wine."

As soon as his words fell, a steady voice came from not far away.

"Brother, long time no see."

"Listen to you, I should have won a lot today."

Hearing this familiar voice, Raleigh turned his head to look.

Soon, a man with a stick and a knife and his eyes closed was walking towards him.

Seeing his appearance, Raleigh said with a smile.

"Hahaha, man, you're right."

"However, I haven't seen you for several days."

"Well, do you want a drink?"

Hearing this, the blind swordsman shook his head slightly.

Immediately, he said in a calm tone.

"No, brother, I'll drink again next time I have a chance."

"I haven't been here for several days, my hands are very itchy."

After being rejected, Raleigh felt a little regretful.

Still, he said with a smile.

"I rejected it. It's a pity. I have to wait for the next time. I don't know when it will be."

Immediately, Rayleigh walked straight out of the casino.

But just as the two passed by, Lei Li reminded in a low voice.

"The island is not very peaceful recently, you have to be careful."

Hearing his words, he smiled and nodded slightly.

Immediately, leaning on a cane-like knife in his hand, he walked towards the depths of the casino.
