One of the pirate swords splits the new world
27 Fellow-minded people?
Lane returned to the ship, and soon the three men who had gone to buy supplies returned. Since they bought a lot of things, the store even sent someone to help them deliver the things to the boat in a wheelbarrow. It took several trips back and forth before the items were delivered.
While checking out, Ryan handed the delivery boy a cigarette. After smoking, Ryan asked the guy who owned the big house at the end of the town.
The man saw that there were only three men, one woman and one child on the ship, and it didn't look like a pirate ship, so he honestly told Ryan that the house was the home of Baron Wall. Ryan asked again what Baron Wall's reputation was like on weekdays. The man shook his head and said that the Baron rarely went out, so he didn't know very well.
Ryan became a little interested. After sending the guy away, Ryan asked Sylvie to go to the town to find out information about the baron.
Not long after, Sylvie came back. According to the information she received, although Baron Wall didn't like to go out, he would go out every once in a while and then buy some slaves. Moreover, he happened to go out again a few days ago, and it is estimated that he will not come back for a few days. However, every time the slaves he bought would disappear soon after, he would announce to the public that the slaves had run away.
slave? Keep buying? disappear?
hiss……
Ryan had a bad feeling. He felt that these slaves might not have disappeared, but were dead.
Ryan summoned everyone and said, "I decided to sneak into the Baron's Mansion at night to have a look."
"Do you think there is something wrong with this Baron Wall?" Aslan asked.
"Well, the slaves I bought disappeared for no reason. Once or twice is okay. But if they keep disappearing, there must be something fishy. I decided to go and have a look."
"Okay, please pay attention to safety." Others agreed with Ryan's decision.

At night, Ryan took advantage of the darkness to arrive outside Baron Wall's mansion. After confirming that no one was in the yard, he jumped over the wall and landed in the yard. The ground was overgrown with weeds, and it looked like no one had cleaned it for a long time. Ryan walked cautiously towards the house, trying not to make any noise.
The door of the whole house was closed and the windows were also closed tightly. Ryan stopped outside the house and looked in through the window. The whole house was empty.
No entrance to enter?
Lane walked around the house and finally found a window with broken glass on the second floor at the back of the house. Ryan used the strength of the first-floor window sill to jump, then grabbed the edge of the second-floor window sill and climbed into the house.
With the moonlight outside the window, Ryan could clearly see the scene in the room. This is a studio, with various paintings hanging on the walls, most of which are lifelike and focused on human figures. There are also unfinished semi-finished products on the easel, and the paint has been used up.
Ryan left the room, and the whole house was silent. Ryan calmly felt it, and there was indeed no one. Then he moved freely. Except for a master bedroom, the second floor is the collection room where Baron Wall collects paintings. The first floor is empty except for the living room, kitchen and bathroom. The basement was also empty. Ryan didn't find any clues, so he had to go back the same way.
When Ryan returned to the ship, he told the others about the investigation process. No one noticed anything wrong, but Ryan always felt that something was wrong.
Ryan originally planned to leave the next day, but the next morning, everyone looked at Ryan with two dark circles under his eyes and told them firmly that they were waiting for two days, and they were a little speechless.
They all said that Ryan was thinking too much. Maybe Baron Wall just bought the slaves back and released them? Or did the slave really run away?
Ryan retorted firmly, if he wanted to release him, why wait until he brought the slave home before releasing him? Just find a place to stop halfway along the way. In the end, Ryan even showed the dignity of the captain, and everyone obeyed the order honestly.
Two days later, at about four o'clock in the afternoon, a passenger ship docked. A middle-aged man with a gentle appearance walked off the passenger ship with five slaves behind him. The slaves were still shackled, and the group walked towards Baron Wall's Mansion. Ryan saw this scene on his boat and followed him secretly.
In order to avoid making his behavior appear too abnormal, Ryan just hung far behind. And look around from time to time, just like going shopping.
Arriving at the Baron's Mansion again, Ryan went directly around the back of the yard, climbed over the wall and entered, then leaned against the back of the house. He listened quietly to the sounds coming from the house, and after confirming that no one was moving around where he was hiding, he quietly stood up and looked in through the window. Then, he saw something surprising.
At this time, Baron Wall was taking off the shackles of the slaves. Several slaves who had taken off their shackles were kneeling on the ground and saluting him with gratitude.
This……
Does he really want to free these slaves? Later, Ryan heard their conversation. Baron Wall said to these slaves: "There are no passenger ships leaving today. You can rest here for one night and leave by ship tomorrow. You sit here and I will make some food for you."
One of the slaves had a grateful look on his face, looked at Baron Wall, and said, "How can I trouble you so much, sir?"
Baron Wall sighed and said: "You know, I am a noble, but my mother was born a slave. I have been looked down upon and bullied since I was a child. It was just good luck that all of my father's direct descendants died in infancy, so I inherited it. I received the title of nobility. But because of my mother, I cannot watch the slaves suffer, so I can only help some slaves within my ability."
After that, he stopped and sighed for a while, then smiled and said, "Let's not talk about this anymore. I'm going to get you some food. You can rest here tonight." After that, he turned around and entered the kitchen.
Ryan hid behind the house and witnessed the whole process, but he did not leave in a hurry. About an hour later, Ryan saw Baron Wall bringing some broth from the kitchen and eating it happily with a few slaves.
When Ryan saw this, he left quietly. Turned around and returned to the ship. Ryan recounted what he overheard to everyone, and everyone lamented the baron's ill-fated life and his kind heart.
Because it was almost evening and it was inconvenient to sail at night, everyone decided to wait until tomorrow morning to leave. In the evening, everyone was sitting at the dining table to eat. Ryan looked at the pile of vegetarian dishes on the table and couldn't help but said to Sylvie: "Sylvie, didn't you buy meat? Why are they all vegetarian?"
Sylvie rolled her eyes at Ryan and said: "This island is not big and there is no space for raising animals. The residents on the island mainly eat vegetarian food and sea fish. Meat is very rare, and it is not sold in the market at all."
"No, I saw Baron Wall making a pot of broth for the slaves..." As he spoke, Ryan was stunned.
broth?
disappear?
There is only one bedroom. Unfinished semi-finished product. Windows without glass. He got off the boat empty-handed, holding only the slave.
Ryan was so excited that he slammed the table and stood up.
"I know, fuck, I'm going to kill this bastard." After saying that, he picked up the knife on the table and rushed out of the cabin.
"Hey, hey..." Aslan shouted twice from behind, but when Ryan didn't turn around, he had to say to the others: "I'll follow and take a look, you stay here."
Hope it's not too late, Ryan said in his heart, running towards Count Wall's mansion.
