Being pulled away, he saw Xiao Ba whose face was flushed very red.

"I should have guessed it a long time ago!" Seeing his guest sitting up on the bed, Xiao Ba folded his hands and covered his face belatedly, "New, I'm sorry, I forgot that you were resting."

Mihawk shook his head, "Did you find the mermaid?"

"Nu," Xiao Ba sighed, "I smelled the smell of alcohol on Danshui, and later Milo said it was a slip of the tongue. New, I should have guessed that it was Makulo and the others, but none of them would admit it. .”

Mihawk, who had just woken up, suddenly felt a little dizzy. He called Xiaoba to stop, and questioned him carefully, before he understood the ins and outs. A small group of gangsters, usually doing some sneaky things, but they have never attacked their companions in Murloc Street.When Xiao Ba approached them, Mai Luo admitted that they had visited Xia Li's house yesterday, but when Xiao Ba asked more, the three of them changed their words in unison, only claiming that they were drunk yesterday and didn't remember anything.

Mihawk put the black knife back behind his back, and looked at Xiaoba seriously, "Can I go and meet them?"

"New, of course."

"If... I might not need to be as scruples about affection as you are."

"New..." Xiao Ba hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded heavily.

"Little Hachi, you wait!" When Mihawk and Xiao Bayi left the door of Makulo's house full of garbage, the owner of the small house shouted behind them: "You actually brought humans here! Question me! You will regret it sooner or later!"

"Nu, he really drank too much." Xiao Ba spread his hands, "It's not the kind of wine in Xia Li's room."

Mihawk, who kept covering himself in the coral bubble and didn't step into the door of Markulo's house, couldn't smell the smell outside, and didn't make a judgment about it. "I don't think they're lying either," he narrowed his eyes slightly, "at least not on purpose."

"New?" Xiao Ba was puzzled.

"Although the murlocs look different, I don't think body movements can deceive people." Mihawk raised his head slightly, "When they mentioned yesterday's performance, it doesn't seem like they are hiding something... Although there are some Not quite right."

"Nu, even if Mailuo is a goldfish man, his memory and brain are not very good, and Danshui is reckless and stupid, but Markuro is smarter than me." Xiaoba imitated Mihawk and folded his six arms, "I just Believe it or not, he forgot everything, they still spoke in unison, as if they had discussed it."

"Yes, it's like reciting it reflexively." Mihawk stopped, "Is Mai Luo a goldfish man? He was also the first to say that he went to Xia Li's house yesterday?"

"But he refused to admit it again." Xiao Ba was furious, "I still can't believe it, they actually did this, New, but Xia Li is not by their side..."

"Could they have left Murloc Street?" While Mihawk was thinking, he noticed that the Murlocs on the street were staring sideways at him and Xiaoba. "Could they have been to land?"

"It's impossible to come back so soon after going to land." Xiao Ba shook his head, "However, they often go to Fishman Island." He stopped by an abandoned empty room, "You can wait for me here first Is it? I'll go find out if anyone has seen anything."

Mihawk watched Xiaoba go away, took a few steps back, and covered himself and Bubble behind half a wall, blocking the sight of some murlocs and mermaids looking at him.He took out the red phone bug and dialed "0309". Before the first "Puru" in the receiver was finished, he heard Shanks' voice with a smile, "Hawkeye? ? Beckman and I are on our way to Murloc Street."

"Huh?" Mihawk raised his eyebrows, "I'm fine here, don't worry."

"Haha, not only for you!" Shanks said with shame in his tone, "As soon as I came back, Beckman complained, he said that I wanted to find someone on such a big island, except for age, name and gender. Other than that, I didn’t give him anything! I just found out that I didn’t even want a photo of Xia Li! I said that Aaron looked like a shark man, and his sister should be similar, right? Then I remembered the brothers of murlocs and mermaids Sisters are all strange...Mr. Tom and Mr. Electric are not the same at all."

Mihawk took out the photo frame from his arms and looked at it carefully, "Well... I guess she is indeed a shark mermaid," he looked at the size of the table and chairs in the photo, and recalled the "Basically the same size as you and me."

"What? Isn't it a little girl?" Shanks seemed taken aback.

"The shark and mermaid won't be too small. I got her photo, and I'll check with Xiaoba later."

"Haha, you're really efficient, but we didn't just come here for the photos. Beckman thinks that the person most likely to capture Xia Li may be someone she knows well. There must be some clues on Murloc Street."

"Yes," Mihawk nodded appreciatively, "that's exactly what I want to tell you." He tried his best to briefly summarize the key experiences at Xia Li's house and Murloc Street, and finally said: "I Guess that the three murlocs hijacked the mermaid, and I have some guesses about their strangeness."

"...Maybe it's hypnosis." Another calm voice came from the phone bug, it was the deputy captain of the Reid who was praised by Shanks, "A master hypnotist, with the help of murlocs, kidnapped that little girl."

"Or a person with fruit ability." Mihawk nodded and added, "In short, it has a similar effect."

"Does any of us understand hypnosis?" Shanks' voice came over, and he didn't seem to get an answer, so he asked again: "Hawkeye, do you understand this?"

"I don't understand." Mihawk replied very simply, "Anyway, I guess this kidnapping has another purpose."

"It probably has something to do with the little girl's prophecy. Since she can't control the prophecy, the kidnapper needs time to observe and wait. It's hard to get what she wants right away, so she may still be alive. And, I guess she won't be in Murloc Street, familiar Circumstances increase the chances of escape."

Mihawk felt that this detailed description was more like explaining something to him and Shanks, there was some noise from the phone bug, and Shanks' voice rang again later, "You mean there is a special kind of wine Are you angry? I am the best at this! Maybe it is also an important clue!"

"I have collected the air there. If there is no conclusive evidence that the mermaid is still in Murloc Street, I will try my best to convince Xiaoba later that it would be better for us to meet at Murloc Island."

"Okay, then we'll stay at the Murloc Cafe and wait for your further news!" Shanks seemed to be eating something, his voice was a little vague, and at the same time his voice was low, "Also, is Xia Li pretty?"

This question made Mihawk take a deep breath. In some aspects, Shanks may be more thorough than him and Beckman who focused on discussing clues. If a little mermaid girl at a good age disappears, she will not die for the time being. It definitely doesn't mean she's safe.

"I'll meet with you as soon as possible." He hung up the phone, appeared from behind the broken wall, looked around for Xiao Ba's trace, and spotted the octopus murloc walking from the street far away. , he walked over with big strides, and the aborigines on the street quickly swam away, subconsciously making way for this suddenly domineering human being.

To Mihawk's surprise, Hachi was holding a flat and small empty wine bottle in his hand, which looked very suitable for wearing on his waist. If it were Shanks, it might only be enough for a sip.

"Nu, this was lost by Milo yesterday and was picked up by the children. It is not produced in Fishman Island, it is not common." Xiaoba handed it over, "Markulo's family went to Fishman Island yesterday afternoon , and a big jar...Nu, we have to go to the island too, and we need Mr. Jinpei's help in this matter."

The name "Jinbei" seems familiar, but time does not allow Mihawk to recall more.Feeling secretly relieved that he saved a lot of tongue, he stretched out his hand to take the empty wine bottle. Its cap has been lost, and it has been filled with sea water several times, and there is no smell.He didn't care to study it more carefully. While putting it away, he looked at Xiao Ba and nodded, "I'm going to the Mermaid Cafe to find Red Hair, the sooner the better."

"Nu, although Mr. Aaron said that you want to stay with me," Xiaoba hesitated, "I believe you! Let's go separately, you go to the Mermaid Cafe first, I will take Mr. Jinping to find you, you explain the matter Be clearer!"

However, later on, he led Mihawk to the side of Murloc Street away from Murloc Island. Mihawk didn't ask any questions. He guessed that there might be a bubble boat here that was better than the bubble boat he and Redhead used to come to Murloc Island. A fast means of transportation.He watched as Xiao Ba raised his two hands, supported his trumpet mouth with a special structure, and played a tune like a fishing chants.Mihawk was interested in this, and then there was a booming sound, and sand was raised in the sea not far away. Mihawk held his breath and looked into the distance, and saw a tall shadow faintly flashing out.He unconsciously opened his eyes wide, until those sea beasts that were bigger than whales lay down in front of him and Xiao Ba, and he noticed that there were reins on their necks.

Xiaoba swam to a sea beast that looked a bit like a giraffe, and at the same time signaled him to pick one at random. Mihawk was not in the mood to waste time on this matter, so he swam up and casually climbed up to the one that looked like an ape closest to him. of.

Xiao Ba whistled, and the giraffe swam away first, much faster than the new type of warship that just appeared recently.
