Laughing Clown in Pirates

Chapter 95

The little boy, standing on the river bank, standing on top of the ruins.

He was wearing orange clothes, his chest and back were soaked with muddy water, and he was a dirty black.His face, too, was covered in plaster, and his feet were in the water, floating broken branches, planks, and the corpse of a squirrel.

The squirrel's body was already decomposed, emitting an unpleasant smell, which attracted a few flies.

Dirty, mixed with fragments of the aftermath of all the disasters, the water hit his ankles again and again. The boy raised his head and waited, his dark eyes watching the merchant ships passing by on the river.

"Look at that poor boy!" On the deck of the merchant ship, the woman holding the man's arm said with red eyes, "Give him some biscuits."

"You, you are too soft-hearted! I can't see this!" The man pampered the woman's nose and ordered the sailor to throw the prepared biscuits to the boy standing on the shore.

"Catch it, boy!" shouted the sailor, throwing his body back, and threw the biscuit vigorously towards the little boy.

Clap... The boxy biscuit wrapped in oil paper fell into the water at the little boy's feet.The boy bent down quickly, picked up the biscuit that was floating in the water, and shook it.

This pack of biscuits weighs about 1kg, which is enough for his family to eat for two days.

"Thank you! Thank you so much, Mr. and Mrs.! You must be great people. I wish you great success in business, promotion in office, and Madam's early birth to a son..."

There was a bright smile on the boy's dirty face, and words of praise kept coming out of his mouth!

This clever boy made the woman cover her mouth and chuckle, especially when the phrase about giving birth to a precious son went straight to her heart.The man around me has never had any heirs, if she is pregnant with his flesh and blood, how can the yellow-faced woman at home fight with her?
"I'm giving it to the kid, he's so cute!" said the woman with a smile.

Hearing the woman's order, the man who had been propping up the obstacle around the bull fish with a pole on the bow put down the pole and picked up two identical biscuits.

"Take it!" The sailor casually threw two biscuits at the boy's place.

Pat... Pat..., the biscuit entered the water and splashed two splashes, one of which hit the wooden board floating on the water, the oil paper was broken, and the broken biscuit powder fell into the water, attracting a few small fish to eat it .

After a few words of kung fu, the boat had already traveled a little farther, and the biscuit dropped by the sailor was more than [-] meters away from the little boy.

"Thank you! Thank you!" the boy yelled, making splashing steps towards the two biscuits.He put the biscuit he got first into his collar and propped it up with the collar.

The water here was a little deeper, and while the boy was testing the invisible river bank with his feet, he used his hands to pull away the driftwood and branches in front of him.

The bricks that had been knocked down by the waves were really painful. Although he was careful enough, the boy suddenly felt a sharp pain behind his left thumb.

He was scratched, probably cut by broken glass or tile or something.

Regardless of the pain, he continued to walk forward, and Yu Yu felt the boy approaching and scattered to run away.The boy reached out and grabbed the driftwood that held the biscuit, and pulled it towards him.

"First copy!" The boy grinned, showing gleaming teeth.The oiled paper was torn and couldn't get wet, so the boy had to hold the biscuit with one hand and lift it up high towards the second bag of biscuit floating on the water.

Plop!Splash!The biscuit was in the river, and the boy thrashed his limbs in panic, taking a few gulps of the dirty water mixed with leaves, small stones, and sludge before regaining his balance.

He can swim... Children in the water city can do it, and those who can't can't survive in this city.

The packet of biscuits on the neckline was floating beside him at this moment, and the little boy took it back as soon as he turned around, but the damaged packet of biscuits in his hand had already fallen apart.

Pieces of biscuits floated beside the boy.

"Ah!" The boy yelled in pain, viciously grabbed a few biscuits from his side, stuffed them into his mouth with the dirty sea water, and chewed them.

The water was violent, and a cleaning boat was passing by to clean up the rubbish in the river. The little boy hurriedly climbed back to the river bank again. When the cleaning boat passed by, the biscuits floating on the river had disappeared.

"why is it like this!"

A wave of uncomfortable emotions stuck in the little boy's throat like vomiting, and tears gushed out of his eyes as if they were about to burst a bank.

"Don't cry, don't cry!" The little boy smashed his chest with his fist, suppressing his uncomfortable emotions.

At this moment, there was a fierce ship bell on the river, and a luxurious sailboat that the little boy had never seen was coming towards the little boy.

It is 13 meters wide and occupies one-third of the main river. The hull is painted bright yellow with black stripes for decoration, and the rudder head is in the shape of a dolphin.

Looking from the side, the boy can still see the neatly arranged cannon muzzles, about 20 of them.

"Nick, what are you doing here? Where's your brother?" A familiar voice came from the boat.Nick looked up and found that Brother Frankie was lying on the rail and waving to him.

"Brother is cleaning up the garbage, and Mom is sick. Brother Frankie! I want to find them something to eat outside."

"Nick, you have to go home, go home!" Franky yelled.He knew what Nick meant when he said looking for something to eat, nothing more than waiting on the shore for a handout.But on the river, there are not only officials and businessmen who donate to satisfy their compassion, but also pirates and gangsters who take advantage of the disaster to plunder for profit.

According to the usual practice, after the Gods of Water tsunami, the adult residents of the Water City have to participate in the reconstruction and clean-up of the city in order to obtain the food and wages stored by the city hall.

But this time, all the money in the water capital was spent on engineering activities to welcome the Tianlong people, so the working residents only got the stored food.Tired of work and only enough food to satisfy their hunger, they accumulated a lot of grievances, and many young people secretly left the team and started scavengers.

The so-called scavengers are not real scavengers. The residents of the water capital are used to making waterproof cellars to hide money and food in the cellars, while those young people will take advantage of the chaos after the disaster to pry the cellars open with tools, The contents inside were looted.

Nick finally listened to Franky's persuasion and ran home.

And on the Draconian ship, Boatman Tom is making his request.

"Master Willibald Saint, can I advance the wages. The Water City is currently undergoing important post-disaster reconstruction, and I have to do my part."

"You haven't made a wheel and a section of track for me, how can you mention money to me?" Willibald St. said angrily: "I have already given you a valuable job opportunity, and promised that if you If you do well, you will be exonerated from the death penalty."

"This..." Tom showed embarrassment: "Then can you ask Mr. Willibald Saint for a few days, so that I can go home and get the money."

"Boatman Tom, I hope you don't get confused about your identity!" Willibald Shengnu said, "Don't make demands on me, or I'll stamp you with the dragon's hooves!"

After speaking, Willibald Saint left angrily with CP0.

Only Loki, Loki's handmaid and the lost boatman Tom are left in the cabin.

"Mr. Tom, I have some private money to support you!" Loki said, which surprised the disappointed Tom.

"As long as you make me a small thing." Loki said, motioning the maid to take something out of his bosom.

"Of course I can. My craftsmanship is very famous. No matter what my wife does..." Tom was speechless.

Because the maid took out from her bosom something that he was extremely familiar with - the design blueprint of the ancient weapon Hades.
