First mate is not easy
Chapter 44 Midnight Talk!
"..."
Well, it seems, too.
Before Lando could react to what happened, he had already realized that he had been easily persuaded by Raymond's words, and when he realized that "this is not right, this is not right from the beginning to the end", the one who had The arrogant red-haired man had already let go of him, turned around and swaggered away—Lando turned his head mechanically, and then found that not far from them were the sailors on the Schitz. At this moment, they were crowding around their chief mate with snot and tears expressing their missing, and all the staff uniformly ignored their "future captain" who had also been missing for dozens of days.
Lando felt that there was an aura of conspiracy to usurp the throne in the air above the Imperial City of Silton on this day.
Lando also felt that the fleet would not get better.
In the midst of resentment, he saw the man who was walking in front and surrounded by people suddenly stop. Under Lando's dazed gaze, he turned around, frowned and said impatiently, "How long are you going to stay in a daze?" ?”
Lando: "Huh?"
Raymond: "I'll count to three, if you can't keep up, you'll be friends with Dill, one, two—"
Lando hurriedly trotted all the way to follow, watching the man turn around and walk forward again with a satisfied expression, the black-haired young man followed behind his buttocks in three or two steps and then muttered softly: "You won't take me again Throwing me into prison, after all, it took a lot of effort to get me out."
At this time, the guy walking in front of him didn't make any answer, and didn't even turn his head to give him a peripheral vision. Lando guessed that he probably didn't hear it, after all, they were surrounded by "first mate Raymond" "What a hell of a mess you've been away, mate" "oh we miss you mate so much" howling...
Gee.
……
A good "Pirate Hanging" turned into a bunch of farce with twists and turns in the end. Surprisingly, Queen Christine did not continue the hanging, but asked the Royal Regular Army to put Dill and the others in custody again, as if they were ready to choose When the execution was carried out again on the next day, when the ordinary citizens who watched the excitement in the market dispersed one after another, only a bunch of people on the Schitz remained at the scene...
In the end, it became first officer Raymond walking vigorously in front, followed by a tall and slender black-haired young man bouncing and jumping. It can be seen that he is walking desperately at this moment. His legs tried to keep up with the pace of the man walking in front, and he stretched his neck to try to show his presence, trying not to be overwhelmed by the other people around the man, he staggered and trotted a few steps, squeezed out of the way A crew member between him and the man grabbed the man's sleeve and said, "Raymond, Raymond, Xiaobai—what did you say on the gallows just now? Why is life here?"
The man walking in front felt his sleeve being pulled, he didn't pull back his hand, but slowed down a little, and said concisely: "Get on the Mora and get information."
"What information?" Lando was taken aback.
"About the whereabouts of the Leviathan." Raymond paused, "Everything."
"..."
Lando shut his mouth - it has to be said that what Dill said earlier made him a little concerned about Queen Christine's entrustment.
Christine Fly Queen?Leviathan?No, although the queen did indeed order her father to look for the ship, but apparently after her father brought back one of the incomplete clues, "The Mermaid's Aria", the matter was left alone. The reason is precisely because the Queen shouldn't know that the clues are incomplete—and now, after Mr. Pade accidentally revealed what happened back then, a small number of people, including Lando, just know that there is still hope for finding this ship Yes, we only need to use half of the existing clues to find the other half... And at this time, Queen Christine also made up her mind to continue searching for the Leviathan?
Could it be that she received a revelation from the gods in her sleep?
Lando closed his mouth, his mind was spinning rapidly, and at this moment, he didn't know whether it was because he was too frightened today or because he didn't sleep last night and made a fuss this morning. Tired, until they returned to the main house of the Barcelolo family located in the Silton Imperial City, Lando could not understand the relationship.
………… Well, to be precise, the more he thought about it, the more frightened he became, and he was unwilling to continue thinking about it after recalling a certain key point: for example, if Raymond could do the following Xiao Bai's identity is not far from the Mora, and if he properly arranges and invites out the Templar Crusaders, then it can be deduced, can he also use the same method to tell everything about the Leviathan that Dill said that day? Are they communicated to the outside world?
—and even reached Kristen Fly Queen's bedside.
Lando shivered, and when he got off the carriage, he almost fell to the ground because of a little distraction—fortunately, Raymond, who jumped out of the carriage first, reached out to help him in time, and the man did not use that The azure blue pupils without much emotion glanced at the black-haired young man, and did not expose the fact that his face looked a little bad at the moment, but just threw out a sentence of "stand up" in a leisurely manner and wanted to let go He, but before he let go, he didn't expect that the black-haired young man had grabbed him with a backhand for the first time.
Raymond froze for a moment, lowered his head subconsciously, and unexpectedly looked at a pair of black pupils that looked particularly confused, even with a trace of anxiety and fear.
Raymond raised his eyebrows slightly: "What?"
Lando was silent for a few seconds, then withdrew his hand, cleared his voice after standing still, and raised his jaw slightly: "It's nothing, let's go in."
After saying that, he walked past the man with his head held high, and when the deacon who ran out from the house opened the door, he walked straight through the opened door without taking his eyes off it, leaving only Raymond standing outside the door Looking at his back thoughtfully, until Nianmai's deacon called "Master Raymond", the latter seemed to come back to his senses, nodded slightly, and then followed the black-haired young man People's steps enter the main house.
Lando immediately ordered someone to prepare bath water for him when he got home. He has been floating in the sea for an unknown number of months, soaking in the bathtub, he almost wanted to die in the warm, fragrant hot water, and wait. After rubbing off a layer of skin, I couldn’t smell the salty smell of seawater in my hair. I got up and changed into dry, soft and clean home clothes. It's all a psychological effect, but obviously Lando doesn't care what they say, because at this time he is busy sitting at the table trying to stuff the sliced fresh fruit, frozen coconut milk, and thick steak into his mouth, and at the same time I didn't forget to complain to the steward about how bad the food on the pirate ship was and how unfriendly the pirates were——
When he returned home, he almost felt as if he had just climbed from hell to the world.
The butler smiled and watched the black-haired young man gobble up until the other side of the long table, where Raymond, who was sipping the red wine gracefully, reminded him "you talk too much" very disdainfully. He put his head down and worked hard - when he was busy putting a thin and tender piece of iced coconut into his mouth, he heard Raymond say a few words: "Will you go to the chamber of commerce with me after eating? "
Lando was slightly taken aback: "Why are you going to the chamber of commerce?"
Raymond: "I've been missing for so long, I should go say hello to the elders."
Lando held a piece of coconut meat and looked at Raymond hesitantly across the table, until he was sure that he couldn't find even the slightest sincerity of "wanting to say hello to the elders" on that face. The guy was just going to show his face so that those old foxes who wanted to take advantage of his absence to be honest, Lando sighed and showed a foolish expression: "No."
Raymond put down his glass and said gently, "Lando Barcelo, you look weird, what's going on?"
"What's so strange?" Lando glanced at him lazily.
"You've always asked me to take you to the chamber of commerce to gain insight and make contacts," as if thinking of the black-haired young man hanging on his lap back then, the man pulled the corners of his lips and showed a half-smile expression, " Now I'm going to take you there, and you're not going?"
Lando was slightly taken aback, and then threw the tableware in his hand, showing an impatient expression: "Is it strange that I want to follow? It's not like you don't know that I didn't sleep all night last night, so now I want to sleep— —God knows how long I've missed a big, clean, soft bed that doesn't wobble."
Raymond seems to have expected such an answer from the ignorant and unwilling to manage the family business. After all, this guy always likes to fight against himself. He told him to go east even if he wanted to Those heading east will also turn west without hesitation... So he didn't make much effort. After lunch, Raymond ordered a carriage to prepare to leave. Before leaving, he received a sentence from the black-haired young man, "I can't stop at all Are you a spinning top?" The man who was bending over to get into the carriage paused, turned his head back and forth with a sneer, while Lando curled his lips and raised his hand to wave to him desperately, shouting the slogan: "For Basser Luo Luo's century-old foundation."
As a matter of course, First Officer Raymond sneered again, this time full of sarcasm.
"...It's really disgusting."
Looking at the handsome and mean side face of the man sitting firmly in the carriage, Lando felt that "Xiaobai" was probably just living in his dream, and now that he woke up from the dream, there was no "Pet Xiaobai", only "Stepmother Lei" Mond".
The carriage rattled away, the black-haired young man heaved a sigh of relief, turned around and walked upstairs, the butler followed behind him, and after seeing him go up to the second floor and turned left, he was slightly taken aback for a moment, then A reminder: "Master, the bedroom is not in that direction."
I haven't been home for several months, and I don't even remember where the room I lived in for decades. Could it be that I was hungry on a pirate ship?
The butler was thinking dully, but he didn't expect that at this time, even though he had already reminded him, the black-haired young man who was walking in front still didn't stop his pace, he just said "I know" vaguely, Then he paused, and stopped in front of a certain door—raised his head and looked at the gorgeous, heavy door in front of him, the dark-haired young man's eyes were slightly dull, he stretched out his hand and pushed the reluctant door open, When he stepped in with one foot, he turned his head, glanced at the old butler behind him who was standing blankly and looked at him, and chuckled softly: "I just want to come to the study."
Completely swept away the lazy and useless appearance of the Second Majesty in front of Raymond before.
After saying that, Lando got into the study, and under the stare of the housekeeper, the door of the study was gently closed.
……
Lando didn't know what kind of mentality he had when he sneaked into the study behind Raymond's back.
And the worst thing is that from the moment Raymond stepped into the carriage, under his expressionless and lazy face, there was actually a stormy sea—he was like a wife who was about to steal something and watched her husband go out, As Raymond's carriage got farther and farther away, his heart beat faster and faster, and probably only God knew, at this moment he was standing alone in the study, looking at the place that clearly belonged to "home". But within the scope of his life, he kept a respectful distance from him since he was a child, and the feeling of guilty conscience of being a thief became more and more intense.
"What are you doing, this is my house!"
He stretched out the tip of his tongue and licked his somewhat dry lips, raised his hand and patted the beating heart to indicate that it should be more peaceful in the chest cavity, and the black-haired young man took his steps lightly, as if Like a nimble cat, it stepped on the thick carpet in the study and came to the desk—at this moment, on that old log desk, which was probably worth a lot of money even if it was split open, there were several books full of books. Looking at the tasteful decorations of "Raymond and my dad", Lando curled his lips, and while his eyes wandered, he followed behind the table. When he sat down on the soft armchair, he saw On the desk in front of him, there was an ink-stained quill, a half-written letter, some scattered documents, and a half-opened book in the original language.
When he was not on the ship, Raymond probably sat in this position and completed a deal of transactions with many businessmen and politicians at home and abroad through letters.
Politicians, and of course Christine the Queen.
Just thinking of this was enough to cause Lando to frown unhappily, and when he realized what he was doing, he found that he had already started to organize the documents on the table, and he took the trouble to read them one by one, And after flipping through, pay great attention to the angle and return them to their original positions.
There are a lot of people who correspond with Raymond, businessmen, dukes, barons, etc. Of course, there is no shortage of love letters from young noble ladies. After patiently reading the fifth letter praising how handsome Raymond was, Lando rolled his eyes to the back of his head and almost couldn't turn them back—the funniest thing is that he also found the letter from Dill, After a hasty glance at the contents of the letter, it was nothing more than talking about the Leviathan. Yes, the most honest and thoughtless pirate captain in history really told Lei about the Leviathan without reservation. Mond, and the lines are full of superiority like "I just told you, but you can't get rid of me because you can't find the Leviathan without my blood"...
Lando sighed with emotion at Dill's misery in the prison, and turned the letter in his hand to the second page, then glanced away and saw the line "Little boy is very happy to be a pirate" , After a few seconds of silence, Lando muttered, "This is definitely a slander intended to cause my leg to be broken." Resisting the urge to destroy the letter humanely, he stuffed the letter back into the envelope Li, throwing it away in disgust.
Finally, when a long hour passed, the yawning black-haired young man finally found a fragrant scroll in a box in the left-hand drawer—the moment he opened the drawer, although he was not sure What is the content of this scroll, but looking at the red and gold ribbon that bound the scroll, he narrowed his eyes slightly, and he was almost certain in his heart that this was what he was looking for.
Carefully took the scroll to the table, untied it, and spread the scroll to read, only to see a short line of words written on it in flamboyant handwriting——
Find the Leviathan lost by Resardin Barcelo and bring it back to the Spanish royal family.If you can't bring it back, please make sure it will never fall into the hands of others, and destroy it if necessary.
At the bottom is the signature of Queen Christine, and Raymond's handwriting and his name, which Rando knew as gray.
The date of signing the power of attorney was a few days ago. After careful calculation, it probably happened not long after Dill told them the story about the island and the Leviathan.
Lando: "..."
This can also explain why Raymond cheated Dill almost unscrupulously.
Because he didn't need Dill at all.
After all, Dill is only needed by people who are really looking for the Leviathan.
Silently closing the front page, at this moment Lando just wanted to tell Captain Dill, who was squatting in the prison and probably still infinitely wronged, about "why did Raymond betray me? Didn't he need my blood to find him?" Is the Leviathan?" This doubt has been perfectly answered: Raymond can choose to look for the Leviathan, but he can also make a second choice at the same time, for example, not to look for it, and let any No one can find it.
"..."
Putting his hands on the edge of the table, Lando closed his eyes fiercely, trying to calm his beating heart in his chest, but the blood was already boiling and clamoring to erupt from almost every pore, burning red with anger The corner of his eyes was closed, and anger almost occupied the high ground of his reason. The betrayed anger, disbelief and loss made him almost lose the ability to think.
——He always thought that even if one day, Raymond really took control of the Seaz, at least he would follow Captain Resardin Barcelolo's last wish and search for the Leviathan throughout his life.
He really believed that was the case, although he always talked about "Raymond's despicable villain seeks to usurp the throne", but he...but he never thought that if one day Raymond really betrayed him , betrayed the Barcelolo family... What should Lando Barcelolo do, what expression should he face him, and what should he say to him—he didn't even have time to think so much, Raymond That bastard De, couldn't wait to push this question in front of him.
Now he was suddenly slapped hard by reality, and the slap hit his face impartially and loudly, making his cheeks burn with shame.
Clenching his hands on the side of the table into fists, Lando stared at the unfolded scroll in front of him. After a few seconds, he took a deep breath and straightened his back. Not wanting to grab the scroll on the table and ignite it, watching the beating delay greedily licking the scroll bit by bit, the sheepskin scroll gave off a anxious breath and the edges turned black. I don’t know why, the black-haired young man He closed his eyes, lowered his voice and said to himself: "That guy's betrayal is understandable, after all, a good bird chooses a tree to rest, and Raymond doesn't seem to be willing to be content with it." The current situation is good, it’s okay, it’s okay, everything will be fine—”
"Monkey, what are you mumbling about?"
A deep and magnetic voice sounded, and the black-haired young man opened his eyes violently. After a closer look, he found that the door of the study room had been pushed open at some point—at this moment, the man in gorgeous clothes The red-haired man in formal attire was leaning against the door, with his arms crossed, his head tilted slightly, looking at himself with a half-smile. His red hair was loosely tied behind his head, and a bunch of it fell down with his movements... Yes, First Officer Raymond, always has such a calm, lazy and elegant appearance, as if he can always control everything in his hands.
Oh no, it should be exactly, playing with the applause.
Lando's chest rose and fell, and he slightly clenched the sheepskin scroll in his hand. As the flames were swallowed, the heat source was getting closer and closer to his fingertips, but he had no intention of letting go of it—at this moment, the entire study room The place was eerily quiet. When he met Lando's gaze, he seemed to realize that something was wrong with the black-haired young man standing behind the table. Hair also fell on his chest.
Lando believed that Raymond had seen the parchment scroll that was burning in his hand at this moment.
Because after a few seconds, Raymond walked towards him quickly as if he had a sudden reaction——
He will probably lose his temper.
After all, it is an important power of attorney.
Seeing the familiar tall figure approaching quickly, Lando truly felt fear and suffocation for the first time. He tensed his face and took a step back, but he didn't have time to escape the shadow that enveloped him at that moment. When he reacted, he only heard a "snap" accompanied by a burning pain on the back of his hand. With a "hiss", he threw away the sheepskin scroll that was about to burn out, and at the same time heard Raymond's majestic voice sounded—
"Are you out of your mind? Have nothing to do and play with the fire in the study, huh?"
Suddenly coming back to his senses, Lando suddenly raised his head and wanted to get mad at the man, but before that, his attention was quickly attracted by the pain in his hand—he frowned fiercely and lowered his head to look at the man. On my own hand, I realized that a blister that would appear after burning immediately appeared on the tip of the index finger. As the saying goes, ten fingers connect to the heart, and the sharp pain directly suppressed the back of the hand that was slapped by Raymond...
"Do you still know it hurts? You idiot."
Before Lando had time to react, the man across the table had already grabbed his paw, and the temperature from the other's palm made him feel hot through the velvet cloth of the white glove——he subconsciously Wanting to get rid of him, he didn't expect the latter to hold his hand tighter because of his struggle. Raymond lowered his voice and said, "Don't move."
"..."
Lando blinked, and in the next second he found that he had been pushed down on the soft sofa in the study, and the shadow that enveloped him withdrew. Before he could breathe a sigh of relief, the man came back with a medicine box in his hand. , opened the medicine box and took out a tube of plaster for unknown purpose, pulled his gloves off with his teeth, and directly applied a thick layer of plaster to Lando on the blisters on his fingertips. The ointment was extremely cool, and Lando immediately felt the scorching pain on his fingertips relieved. Lando let out a long breath and lowered his eyes: "Why are you back?"
"Be careful not to touch the water these two days, or the wound will be more serious. Don't cry and call your mother - come back after finishing the work. I'm still spending the night with those old men in the chamber of commerce?" Raymond put away the ointment, no hair on his head He raised his head and asked, "You are not sleeping, what are you doing in the study? Sleepwalking?"
"Let's take a look." Lando looked away absent-mindedly, answered Raymond's question first, then continued after a pause, "Then I saw the entrustment agreement between you and Queen Christine. "
Snapped.
The sound of the medicine box being closed.
With such a soft sound, it seemed as if some heavy hammer hit Lando's heart heavily. He pursed his lips slightly, and was preparing to face the next storm, but he didn't expect that the man beside him just picked up the medicine box Get up and ask, "Oh, and then?"
Lando: "........."
Lando silently turned his unscrewed head back.
The development of the plot is calm as if it is a bit out of the outline.
In his imagination, the guy in front of him should at least show the fear or guilty conscience of being exposed in an instant—but look at those clear blue transparent pairs, there is an incomparably natural calm and doubt in it... Could it be that he has been so shameless to this point? The point?
Silent for a few seconds, Lando took a deep breath under the increasingly puzzled gaze, as if mustering up the courage to say: "I saw the power of attorney, Her Majesty the Queen asked you to retrieve the Leviathan, and said When necessary, you can choose to destroy it or let it never appear in this world... Raymond, is that right? That's why you want to kill Dill unscrupulously, because without Dill, there will never be Possibly follow the clues of 'The Mermaid's Aria' to find the Leviathan statue, without the Leviathan statue, we would never have found the Leviathan, and you, Mate Raymond, you will have no trouble Complete the queen's commission directly, and you will be famous, right?"
Lando finished speaking in one breath, and after he finished speaking, he closed his mouth fiercely, gritted his back molars, and stared fiercely at the man in front of him with his slightly red eyes—as if he was ready to kill him at any time. He eats them alive.
Surprisingly, Raymond didn't react too much.
In fact, Lando kept staring at Raymond's face during the process of criticizing the other party's crimes, so he could clearly see that handsome face from the initial doubts to the relief to the final look that seemed a little Dangerous, but when he spoke in a resentful and angry tone, he became more and more excited, and finally stared at Raymond with a pale face after he finished speaking, but the other party remained silent.
"Reply!"
Lando couldn't take it anymore and kicked Raymond with his foot, signaling him not to pretend to be dead and to squeak quickly.
The man standing by the sofa put down the medicine box in his hand, lowered his head and looked at the black-haired young man for a moment. After a long time, he saw the dangerous signal on the handsome face of the chief mate of the Schitz finally reached its peak. At this time, the man raised the corners of his lips to reveal a little bit of white teeth, showing a smile that probably only comes from a ghost who climbed up from hell——
"Ah, let me tell you how long you're going to hold it in... Now that you've finally said it, you've been thinking about it since Dill started to stir up trouble, haven't you?"
Chapter 45 Although your father asked me to take care of you before he died, it does not mean that I am obliged to be the sexual object of your dreams.
"..."
Right shit.
There was only the sound of "buzzing" in his head, Lando's back was already tightly pressed against the sofa behind him, he stared at a pair of black pupils completely without the confidence before, but at this moment Raymond's face was almost pressed against his, and the distance was so close that he could almost see the fine hairs on the latter's face. He wondered if the man could easily hear the movement under his chest. Beat the heartbeat like a drum and laugh at it...
Fortunately he didn't.
It's just that his attitude wasn't very good - none of the reactions he imagined to be a traitor who was caught upright appeared on his face, and the first officer of the Seaz just looked at him with raised eyebrows. , the two looked at each other for a moment, until Lando realized that something was wrong, he sat up straight and stretched out his hand to push Raymond away: "Yes! I've been thinking about this all morning. The matter of the chief mate defecting against the old captain’s last wish—you can just cry and apologize if you are caught, what a crime!”
Raymond stood up straight, lowered his eyes and looked condescendingly at the black-haired young man sitting on the sofa. His bluffing, fangs and claws really looked like a monkey that exploded in anger from embarrassment.
"My voice is not half as high as your yelling, and you actually turned around and called me fierce?" Raymond asked in a joking tone, "Is there any reason?"
"I also want to ask if there is any reason for it. What is wrong with my dad that you treat him like this? Do you still have a conscience? My dad dragged you since childhood and grew up to be closer to you than his own son—yes , as his own son, I have the most right to speak, and I am not treated as fucking well as you!" Lando didn't realize that he was very imposing when talking to a man with his head up, so he simply stood up He stood directly on the sofa, so that he was half a head shorter than Raymond, and he succeeded in being a head taller than Raymond. He looked down at the man with his waist down, and continued excitedly, "You actually betrayed him! Betray me! Betray me——hmmmm!"
Before the black-haired young man finished speaking, he was interrupted by a big hand covering his mouth!
He widened his eyes slightly and stretched out his hand to try to take Raymond's hand away, but the opponent's strength was obviously not something he could resist, so he was dragged off the sofa by someone at a complete disadvantage, and waited for Lando to Standing firmly on the ground, Raymond let go of his hand. Under the angry stare of the black-haired young man, he slowly said in a steady voice, "You can't show your family ugliness. You have to close the windows before you yell."
"You fucking know it's a family scandal!"
"I'm talking about your low IQ."
"..."
"Who said I betrayed the old captain?"
"My father asked you to find the Leviathan, but you are going to kill the only person who can help us find the Leviathan because of Queen Christine's order! What advantage did she give you, you turned your back so easily Alright, mountains of gold and silver? You have eaten rice from my family for decades—”
"Didn't you burn the power of attorney?" Raymond narrowed his eyes slightly, "Do you think if I take this matter to heart, I can put it in a place where you can find it? I slept with you on the Mora for more than half a month and you didn't find out who I am, so with this IQ alone, do you expect yourself to see through my schemes?"
"You still have the face to mention this! Give me back, Xiaobai!"
"I'm Xiaobai."
"you are not!"
"Don't be self-willed, master." Raymond rubbed his temples that were throbbing from the loud voice, sighed and said helplessly, "Your father's last wish is to find the Leviathan, and Queen Christine is just worried If this ship falls into another country, it will cause greater disputes and even wars. It is the best defense to attack. We have reached an agreement on this point. The ship, except in the most urgent case of war, we may detain it from the Shildon Royal Navy, and keep it incognito as our own."
"Oh," Lando nodded, "I don't believe it."
"You know, in fact, whether you believe it or not has little influence on the whole thing."
"..." Lando's chest heaved violently, "Then how do you explain that you tricked Dill and even wanted to kill him?"
"Isn't he alive and kicking now?" Raymond replied casually, and after he finished his answer, he paused suddenly, turned his head and gave Lando a serious look, "Why, are you because of your private feelings? Do you just want him to live, or is it really for the Leviathan as you said?"
"Of course it's because of the Leviathan!" Lando went mad, "You've seen how he shouted at me on the Mora. I'm sick. What kind of private feelings do I have for him!"
"It's hard to say." Raymond said subtly, "I also shouted at you, but you didn't get jealous because you saw an inexplicable power of attorney..."
Raymond was halfway through speaking, and he glanced at the dark-haired young man's pale face with satisfaction, which turned from white to red to boiled shrimp... Although after a few seconds, the reaction was slow. The guy strongly expressed his serious protest against the statement of "eating a lot of vinegar", but it was obviously too late for him to say anything at this time. After all, the ashes of the parchment scroll in the trash can were his evidence.
Raymond sent the guy who hadn't slept all night and one morning back to the bedroom. The latter fell silent almost as soon as his head touched the pillow. The man standing by the bed pulled the quilt for him and was about to leave. However, before he turned around, he suddenly felt that someone grabbed his sleeve. He turned around and lowered his head, looking expressionlessly at the person on the bed who was so sleepy that he couldn't even open his eyes and still grabbed his sleeve. The guy narrowed his eyes slightly and said: "You are no longer a baby, I refuse to tell you any bedside stories...or lullabies."
"Xiaobai is not that fierce."
"If you asked to sing a lullaby at that time, even Xiaobai would have refused you severely."
"It's really not gentle. I deserve to never get a wife." Lando yawned and said in a tired voice, "It just occurred to me that Dill's survival depends on his own hard work, and you let him live It doesn't matter half a dime, right? Otherwise, why would you try to catch him in the prison..."
Before Lando finished speaking, he felt that half of the bed beside him had collapsed. He opened his eyes a little, and saw that the person who was about to leave sat down beside his pillow, and then... Rescued from his hands, Raymond half leaned against the bed, straightened his ruffled sleeves and said: "Last night, a certain guy was busy yelling that he missed Dad and crying about why I didn't come to save him. The guy probably didn't notice that when that nasty hamster climbed out of the railing, it didn't go empty-handed."
"Who are you talking about?" Lando asked.
Then I got a slap on the forehead.
He shrank his neck and pulled up the quilt a bit, and at the same time he heard Raymond continue: "That fat one
Well, it seems, too.
Before Lando could react to what happened, he had already realized that he had been easily persuaded by Raymond's words, and when he realized that "this is not right, this is not right from the beginning to the end", the one who had The arrogant red-haired man had already let go of him, turned around and swaggered away—Lando turned his head mechanically, and then found that not far from them were the sailors on the Schitz. At this moment, they were crowding around their chief mate with snot and tears expressing their missing, and all the staff uniformly ignored their "future captain" who had also been missing for dozens of days.
Lando felt that there was an aura of conspiracy to usurp the throne in the air above the Imperial City of Silton on this day.
Lando also felt that the fleet would not get better.
In the midst of resentment, he saw the man who was walking in front and surrounded by people suddenly stop. Under Lando's dazed gaze, he turned around, frowned and said impatiently, "How long are you going to stay in a daze?" ?”
Lando: "Huh?"
Raymond: "I'll count to three, if you can't keep up, you'll be friends with Dill, one, two—"
Lando hurriedly trotted all the way to follow, watching the man turn around and walk forward again with a satisfied expression, the black-haired young man followed behind his buttocks in three or two steps and then muttered softly: "You won't take me again Throwing me into prison, after all, it took a lot of effort to get me out."
At this time, the guy walking in front of him didn't make any answer, and didn't even turn his head to give him a peripheral vision. Lando guessed that he probably didn't hear it, after all, they were surrounded by "first mate Raymond" "What a hell of a mess you've been away, mate" "oh we miss you mate so much" howling...
Gee.
……
A good "Pirate Hanging" turned into a bunch of farce with twists and turns in the end. Surprisingly, Queen Christine did not continue the hanging, but asked the Royal Regular Army to put Dill and the others in custody again, as if they were ready to choose When the execution was carried out again on the next day, when the ordinary citizens who watched the excitement in the market dispersed one after another, only a bunch of people on the Schitz remained at the scene...
In the end, it became first officer Raymond walking vigorously in front, followed by a tall and slender black-haired young man bouncing and jumping. It can be seen that he is walking desperately at this moment. His legs tried to keep up with the pace of the man walking in front, and he stretched his neck to try to show his presence, trying not to be overwhelmed by the other people around the man, he staggered and trotted a few steps, squeezed out of the way A crew member between him and the man grabbed the man's sleeve and said, "Raymond, Raymond, Xiaobai—what did you say on the gallows just now? Why is life here?"
The man walking in front felt his sleeve being pulled, he didn't pull back his hand, but slowed down a little, and said concisely: "Get on the Mora and get information."
"What information?" Lando was taken aback.
"About the whereabouts of the Leviathan." Raymond paused, "Everything."
"..."
Lando shut his mouth - it has to be said that what Dill said earlier made him a little concerned about Queen Christine's entrustment.
Christine Fly Queen?Leviathan?No, although the queen did indeed order her father to look for the ship, but apparently after her father brought back one of the incomplete clues, "The Mermaid's Aria", the matter was left alone. The reason is precisely because the Queen shouldn't know that the clues are incomplete—and now, after Mr. Pade accidentally revealed what happened back then, a small number of people, including Lando, just know that there is still hope for finding this ship Yes, we only need to use half of the existing clues to find the other half... And at this time, Queen Christine also made up her mind to continue searching for the Leviathan?
Could it be that she received a revelation from the gods in her sleep?
Lando closed his mouth, his mind was spinning rapidly, and at this moment, he didn't know whether it was because he was too frightened today or because he didn't sleep last night and made a fuss this morning. Tired, until they returned to the main house of the Barcelolo family located in the Silton Imperial City, Lando could not understand the relationship.
………… Well, to be precise, the more he thought about it, the more frightened he became, and he was unwilling to continue thinking about it after recalling a certain key point: for example, if Raymond could do the following Xiao Bai's identity is not far from the Mora, and if he properly arranges and invites out the Templar Crusaders, then it can be deduced, can he also use the same method to tell everything about the Leviathan that Dill said that day? Are they communicated to the outside world?
—and even reached Kristen Fly Queen's bedside.
Lando shivered, and when he got off the carriage, he almost fell to the ground because of a little distraction—fortunately, Raymond, who jumped out of the carriage first, reached out to help him in time, and the man did not use that The azure blue pupils without much emotion glanced at the black-haired young man, and did not expose the fact that his face looked a little bad at the moment, but just threw out a sentence of "stand up" in a leisurely manner and wanted to let go He, but before he let go, he didn't expect that the black-haired young man had grabbed him with a backhand for the first time.
Raymond froze for a moment, lowered his head subconsciously, and unexpectedly looked at a pair of black pupils that looked particularly confused, even with a trace of anxiety and fear.
Raymond raised his eyebrows slightly: "What?"
Lando was silent for a few seconds, then withdrew his hand, cleared his voice after standing still, and raised his jaw slightly: "It's nothing, let's go in."
After saying that, he walked past the man with his head held high, and when the deacon who ran out from the house opened the door, he walked straight through the opened door without taking his eyes off it, leaving only Raymond standing outside the door Looking at his back thoughtfully, until Nianmai's deacon called "Master Raymond", the latter seemed to come back to his senses, nodded slightly, and then followed the black-haired young man People's steps enter the main house.
Lando immediately ordered someone to prepare bath water for him when he got home. He has been floating in the sea for an unknown number of months, soaking in the bathtub, he almost wanted to die in the warm, fragrant hot water, and wait. After rubbing off a layer of skin, I couldn’t smell the salty smell of seawater in my hair. I got up and changed into dry, soft and clean home clothes. It's all a psychological effect, but obviously Lando doesn't care what they say, because at this time he is busy sitting at the table trying to stuff the sliced fresh fruit, frozen coconut milk, and thick steak into his mouth, and at the same time I didn't forget to complain to the steward about how bad the food on the pirate ship was and how unfriendly the pirates were——
When he returned home, he almost felt as if he had just climbed from hell to the world.
The butler smiled and watched the black-haired young man gobble up until the other side of the long table, where Raymond, who was sipping the red wine gracefully, reminded him "you talk too much" very disdainfully. He put his head down and worked hard - when he was busy putting a thin and tender piece of iced coconut into his mouth, he heard Raymond say a few words: "Will you go to the chamber of commerce with me after eating? "
Lando was slightly taken aback: "Why are you going to the chamber of commerce?"
Raymond: "I've been missing for so long, I should go say hello to the elders."
Lando held a piece of coconut meat and looked at Raymond hesitantly across the table, until he was sure that he couldn't find even the slightest sincerity of "wanting to say hello to the elders" on that face. The guy was just going to show his face so that those old foxes who wanted to take advantage of his absence to be honest, Lando sighed and showed a foolish expression: "No."
Raymond put down his glass and said gently, "Lando Barcelo, you look weird, what's going on?"
"What's so strange?" Lando glanced at him lazily.
"You've always asked me to take you to the chamber of commerce to gain insight and make contacts," as if thinking of the black-haired young man hanging on his lap back then, the man pulled the corners of his lips and showed a half-smile expression, " Now I'm going to take you there, and you're not going?"
Lando was slightly taken aback, and then threw the tableware in his hand, showing an impatient expression: "Is it strange that I want to follow? It's not like you don't know that I didn't sleep all night last night, so now I want to sleep— —God knows how long I've missed a big, clean, soft bed that doesn't wobble."
Raymond seems to have expected such an answer from the ignorant and unwilling to manage the family business. After all, this guy always likes to fight against himself. He told him to go east even if he wanted to Those heading east will also turn west without hesitation... So he didn't make much effort. After lunch, Raymond ordered a carriage to prepare to leave. Before leaving, he received a sentence from the black-haired young man, "I can't stop at all Are you a spinning top?" The man who was bending over to get into the carriage paused, turned his head back and forth with a sneer, while Lando curled his lips and raised his hand to wave to him desperately, shouting the slogan: "For Basser Luo Luo's century-old foundation."
As a matter of course, First Officer Raymond sneered again, this time full of sarcasm.
"...It's really disgusting."
Looking at the handsome and mean side face of the man sitting firmly in the carriage, Lando felt that "Xiaobai" was probably just living in his dream, and now that he woke up from the dream, there was no "Pet Xiaobai", only "Stepmother Lei" Mond".
The carriage rattled away, the black-haired young man heaved a sigh of relief, turned around and walked upstairs, the butler followed behind him, and after seeing him go up to the second floor and turned left, he was slightly taken aback for a moment, then A reminder: "Master, the bedroom is not in that direction."
I haven't been home for several months, and I don't even remember where the room I lived in for decades. Could it be that I was hungry on a pirate ship?
The butler was thinking dully, but he didn't expect that at this time, even though he had already reminded him, the black-haired young man who was walking in front still didn't stop his pace, he just said "I know" vaguely, Then he paused, and stopped in front of a certain door—raised his head and looked at the gorgeous, heavy door in front of him, the dark-haired young man's eyes were slightly dull, he stretched out his hand and pushed the reluctant door open, When he stepped in with one foot, he turned his head, glanced at the old butler behind him who was standing blankly and looked at him, and chuckled softly: "I just want to come to the study."
Completely swept away the lazy and useless appearance of the Second Majesty in front of Raymond before.
After saying that, Lando got into the study, and under the stare of the housekeeper, the door of the study was gently closed.
……
Lando didn't know what kind of mentality he had when he sneaked into the study behind Raymond's back.
And the worst thing is that from the moment Raymond stepped into the carriage, under his expressionless and lazy face, there was actually a stormy sea—he was like a wife who was about to steal something and watched her husband go out, As Raymond's carriage got farther and farther away, his heart beat faster and faster, and probably only God knew, at this moment he was standing alone in the study, looking at the place that clearly belonged to "home". But within the scope of his life, he kept a respectful distance from him since he was a child, and the feeling of guilty conscience of being a thief became more and more intense.
"What are you doing, this is my house!"
He stretched out the tip of his tongue and licked his somewhat dry lips, raised his hand and patted the beating heart to indicate that it should be more peaceful in the chest cavity, and the black-haired young man took his steps lightly, as if Like a nimble cat, it stepped on the thick carpet in the study and came to the desk—at this moment, on that old log desk, which was probably worth a lot of money even if it was split open, there were several books full of books. Looking at the tasteful decorations of "Raymond and my dad", Lando curled his lips, and while his eyes wandered, he followed behind the table. When he sat down on the soft armchair, he saw On the desk in front of him, there was an ink-stained quill, a half-written letter, some scattered documents, and a half-opened book in the original language.
When he was not on the ship, Raymond probably sat in this position and completed a deal of transactions with many businessmen and politicians at home and abroad through letters.
Politicians, and of course Christine the Queen.
Just thinking of this was enough to cause Lando to frown unhappily, and when he realized what he was doing, he found that he had already started to organize the documents on the table, and he took the trouble to read them one by one, And after flipping through, pay great attention to the angle and return them to their original positions.
There are a lot of people who correspond with Raymond, businessmen, dukes, barons, etc. Of course, there is no shortage of love letters from young noble ladies. After patiently reading the fifth letter praising how handsome Raymond was, Lando rolled his eyes to the back of his head and almost couldn't turn them back—the funniest thing is that he also found the letter from Dill, After a hasty glance at the contents of the letter, it was nothing more than talking about the Leviathan. Yes, the most honest and thoughtless pirate captain in history really told Lei about the Leviathan without reservation. Mond, and the lines are full of superiority like "I just told you, but you can't get rid of me because you can't find the Leviathan without my blood"...
Lando sighed with emotion at Dill's misery in the prison, and turned the letter in his hand to the second page, then glanced away and saw the line "Little boy is very happy to be a pirate" , After a few seconds of silence, Lando muttered, "This is definitely a slander intended to cause my leg to be broken." Resisting the urge to destroy the letter humanely, he stuffed the letter back into the envelope Li, throwing it away in disgust.
Finally, when a long hour passed, the yawning black-haired young man finally found a fragrant scroll in a box in the left-hand drawer—the moment he opened the drawer, although he was not sure What is the content of this scroll, but looking at the red and gold ribbon that bound the scroll, he narrowed his eyes slightly, and he was almost certain in his heart that this was what he was looking for.
Carefully took the scroll to the table, untied it, and spread the scroll to read, only to see a short line of words written on it in flamboyant handwriting——
Find the Leviathan lost by Resardin Barcelo and bring it back to the Spanish royal family.If you can't bring it back, please make sure it will never fall into the hands of others, and destroy it if necessary.
At the bottom is the signature of Queen Christine, and Raymond's handwriting and his name, which Rando knew as gray.
The date of signing the power of attorney was a few days ago. After careful calculation, it probably happened not long after Dill told them the story about the island and the Leviathan.
Lando: "..."
This can also explain why Raymond cheated Dill almost unscrupulously.
Because he didn't need Dill at all.
After all, Dill is only needed by people who are really looking for the Leviathan.
Silently closing the front page, at this moment Lando just wanted to tell Captain Dill, who was squatting in the prison and probably still infinitely wronged, about "why did Raymond betray me? Didn't he need my blood to find him?" Is the Leviathan?" This doubt has been perfectly answered: Raymond can choose to look for the Leviathan, but he can also make a second choice at the same time, for example, not to look for it, and let any No one can find it.
"..."
Putting his hands on the edge of the table, Lando closed his eyes fiercely, trying to calm his beating heart in his chest, but the blood was already boiling and clamoring to erupt from almost every pore, burning red with anger The corner of his eyes was closed, and anger almost occupied the high ground of his reason. The betrayed anger, disbelief and loss made him almost lose the ability to think.
——He always thought that even if one day, Raymond really took control of the Seaz, at least he would follow Captain Resardin Barcelolo's last wish and search for the Leviathan throughout his life.
He really believed that was the case, although he always talked about "Raymond's despicable villain seeks to usurp the throne", but he...but he never thought that if one day Raymond really betrayed him , betrayed the Barcelolo family... What should Lando Barcelolo do, what expression should he face him, and what should he say to him—he didn't even have time to think so much, Raymond That bastard De, couldn't wait to push this question in front of him.
Now he was suddenly slapped hard by reality, and the slap hit his face impartially and loudly, making his cheeks burn with shame.
Clenching his hands on the side of the table into fists, Lando stared at the unfolded scroll in front of him. After a few seconds, he took a deep breath and straightened his back. Not wanting to grab the scroll on the table and ignite it, watching the beating delay greedily licking the scroll bit by bit, the sheepskin scroll gave off a anxious breath and the edges turned black. I don’t know why, the black-haired young man He closed his eyes, lowered his voice and said to himself: "That guy's betrayal is understandable, after all, a good bird chooses a tree to rest, and Raymond doesn't seem to be willing to be content with it." The current situation is good, it’s okay, it’s okay, everything will be fine—”
"Monkey, what are you mumbling about?"
A deep and magnetic voice sounded, and the black-haired young man opened his eyes violently. After a closer look, he found that the door of the study room had been pushed open at some point—at this moment, the man in gorgeous clothes The red-haired man in formal attire was leaning against the door, with his arms crossed, his head tilted slightly, looking at himself with a half-smile. His red hair was loosely tied behind his head, and a bunch of it fell down with his movements... Yes, First Officer Raymond, always has such a calm, lazy and elegant appearance, as if he can always control everything in his hands.
Oh no, it should be exactly, playing with the applause.
Lando's chest rose and fell, and he slightly clenched the sheepskin scroll in his hand. As the flames were swallowed, the heat source was getting closer and closer to his fingertips, but he had no intention of letting go of it—at this moment, the entire study room The place was eerily quiet. When he met Lando's gaze, he seemed to realize that something was wrong with the black-haired young man standing behind the table. Hair also fell on his chest.
Lando believed that Raymond had seen the parchment scroll that was burning in his hand at this moment.
Because after a few seconds, Raymond walked towards him quickly as if he had a sudden reaction——
He will probably lose his temper.
After all, it is an important power of attorney.
Seeing the familiar tall figure approaching quickly, Lando truly felt fear and suffocation for the first time. He tensed his face and took a step back, but he didn't have time to escape the shadow that enveloped him at that moment. When he reacted, he only heard a "snap" accompanied by a burning pain on the back of his hand. With a "hiss", he threw away the sheepskin scroll that was about to burn out, and at the same time heard Raymond's majestic voice sounded—
"Are you out of your mind? Have nothing to do and play with the fire in the study, huh?"
Suddenly coming back to his senses, Lando suddenly raised his head and wanted to get mad at the man, but before that, his attention was quickly attracted by the pain in his hand—he frowned fiercely and lowered his head to look at the man. On my own hand, I realized that a blister that would appear after burning immediately appeared on the tip of the index finger. As the saying goes, ten fingers connect to the heart, and the sharp pain directly suppressed the back of the hand that was slapped by Raymond...
"Do you still know it hurts? You idiot."
Before Lando had time to react, the man across the table had already grabbed his paw, and the temperature from the other's palm made him feel hot through the velvet cloth of the white glove——he subconsciously Wanting to get rid of him, he didn't expect the latter to hold his hand tighter because of his struggle. Raymond lowered his voice and said, "Don't move."
"..."
Lando blinked, and in the next second he found that he had been pushed down on the soft sofa in the study, and the shadow that enveloped him withdrew. Before he could breathe a sigh of relief, the man came back with a medicine box in his hand. , opened the medicine box and took out a tube of plaster for unknown purpose, pulled his gloves off with his teeth, and directly applied a thick layer of plaster to Lando on the blisters on his fingertips. The ointment was extremely cool, and Lando immediately felt the scorching pain on his fingertips relieved. Lando let out a long breath and lowered his eyes: "Why are you back?"
"Be careful not to touch the water these two days, or the wound will be more serious. Don't cry and call your mother - come back after finishing the work. I'm still spending the night with those old men in the chamber of commerce?" Raymond put away the ointment, no hair on his head He raised his head and asked, "You are not sleeping, what are you doing in the study? Sleepwalking?"
"Let's take a look." Lando looked away absent-mindedly, answered Raymond's question first, then continued after a pause, "Then I saw the entrustment agreement between you and Queen Christine. "
Snapped.
The sound of the medicine box being closed.
With such a soft sound, it seemed as if some heavy hammer hit Lando's heart heavily. He pursed his lips slightly, and was preparing to face the next storm, but he didn't expect that the man beside him just picked up the medicine box Get up and ask, "Oh, and then?"
Lando: "........."
Lando silently turned his unscrewed head back.
The development of the plot is calm as if it is a bit out of the outline.
In his imagination, the guy in front of him should at least show the fear or guilty conscience of being exposed in an instant—but look at those clear blue transparent pairs, there is an incomparably natural calm and doubt in it... Could it be that he has been so shameless to this point? The point?
Silent for a few seconds, Lando took a deep breath under the increasingly puzzled gaze, as if mustering up the courage to say: "I saw the power of attorney, Her Majesty the Queen asked you to retrieve the Leviathan, and said When necessary, you can choose to destroy it or let it never appear in this world... Raymond, is that right? That's why you want to kill Dill unscrupulously, because without Dill, there will never be Possibly follow the clues of 'The Mermaid's Aria' to find the Leviathan statue, without the Leviathan statue, we would never have found the Leviathan, and you, Mate Raymond, you will have no trouble Complete the queen's commission directly, and you will be famous, right?"
Lando finished speaking in one breath, and after he finished speaking, he closed his mouth fiercely, gritted his back molars, and stared fiercely at the man in front of him with his slightly red eyes—as if he was ready to kill him at any time. He eats them alive.
Surprisingly, Raymond didn't react too much.
In fact, Lando kept staring at Raymond's face during the process of criticizing the other party's crimes, so he could clearly see that handsome face from the initial doubts to the relief to the final look that seemed a little Dangerous, but when he spoke in a resentful and angry tone, he became more and more excited, and finally stared at Raymond with a pale face after he finished speaking, but the other party remained silent.
"Reply!"
Lando couldn't take it anymore and kicked Raymond with his foot, signaling him not to pretend to be dead and to squeak quickly.
The man standing by the sofa put down the medicine box in his hand, lowered his head and looked at the black-haired young man for a moment. After a long time, he saw the dangerous signal on the handsome face of the chief mate of the Schitz finally reached its peak. At this time, the man raised the corners of his lips to reveal a little bit of white teeth, showing a smile that probably only comes from a ghost who climbed up from hell——
"Ah, let me tell you how long you're going to hold it in... Now that you've finally said it, you've been thinking about it since Dill started to stir up trouble, haven't you?"
Chapter 45 Although your father asked me to take care of you before he died, it does not mean that I am obliged to be the sexual object of your dreams.
"..."
Right shit.
There was only the sound of "buzzing" in his head, Lando's back was already tightly pressed against the sofa behind him, he stared at a pair of black pupils completely without the confidence before, but at this moment Raymond's face was almost pressed against his, and the distance was so close that he could almost see the fine hairs on the latter's face. He wondered if the man could easily hear the movement under his chest. Beat the heartbeat like a drum and laugh at it...
Fortunately he didn't.
It's just that his attitude wasn't very good - none of the reactions he imagined to be a traitor who was caught upright appeared on his face, and the first officer of the Seaz just looked at him with raised eyebrows. , the two looked at each other for a moment, until Lando realized that something was wrong, he sat up straight and stretched out his hand to push Raymond away: "Yes! I've been thinking about this all morning. The matter of the chief mate defecting against the old captain’s last wish—you can just cry and apologize if you are caught, what a crime!”
Raymond stood up straight, lowered his eyes and looked condescendingly at the black-haired young man sitting on the sofa. His bluffing, fangs and claws really looked like a monkey that exploded in anger from embarrassment.
"My voice is not half as high as your yelling, and you actually turned around and called me fierce?" Raymond asked in a joking tone, "Is there any reason?"
"I also want to ask if there is any reason for it. What is wrong with my dad that you treat him like this? Do you still have a conscience? My dad dragged you since childhood and grew up to be closer to you than his own son—yes , as his own son, I have the most right to speak, and I am not treated as fucking well as you!" Lando didn't realize that he was very imposing when talking to a man with his head up, so he simply stood up He stood directly on the sofa, so that he was half a head shorter than Raymond, and he succeeded in being a head taller than Raymond. He looked down at the man with his waist down, and continued excitedly, "You actually betrayed him! Betray me! Betray me——hmmmm!"
Before the black-haired young man finished speaking, he was interrupted by a big hand covering his mouth!
He widened his eyes slightly and stretched out his hand to try to take Raymond's hand away, but the opponent's strength was obviously not something he could resist, so he was dragged off the sofa by someone at a complete disadvantage, and waited for Lando to Standing firmly on the ground, Raymond let go of his hand. Under the angry stare of the black-haired young man, he slowly said in a steady voice, "You can't show your family ugliness. You have to close the windows before you yell."
"You fucking know it's a family scandal!"
"I'm talking about your low IQ."
"..."
"Who said I betrayed the old captain?"
"My father asked you to find the Leviathan, but you are going to kill the only person who can help us find the Leviathan because of Queen Christine's order! What advantage did she give you, you turned your back so easily Alright, mountains of gold and silver? You have eaten rice from my family for decades—”
"Didn't you burn the power of attorney?" Raymond narrowed his eyes slightly, "Do you think if I take this matter to heart, I can put it in a place where you can find it? I slept with you on the Mora for more than half a month and you didn't find out who I am, so with this IQ alone, do you expect yourself to see through my schemes?"
"You still have the face to mention this! Give me back, Xiaobai!"
"I'm Xiaobai."
"you are not!"
"Don't be self-willed, master." Raymond rubbed his temples that were throbbing from the loud voice, sighed and said helplessly, "Your father's last wish is to find the Leviathan, and Queen Christine is just worried If this ship falls into another country, it will cause greater disputes and even wars. It is the best defense to attack. We have reached an agreement on this point. The ship, except in the most urgent case of war, we may detain it from the Shildon Royal Navy, and keep it incognito as our own."
"Oh," Lando nodded, "I don't believe it."
"You know, in fact, whether you believe it or not has little influence on the whole thing."
"..." Lando's chest heaved violently, "Then how do you explain that you tricked Dill and even wanted to kill him?"
"Isn't he alive and kicking now?" Raymond replied casually, and after he finished his answer, he paused suddenly, turned his head and gave Lando a serious look, "Why, are you because of your private feelings? Do you just want him to live, or is it really for the Leviathan as you said?"
"Of course it's because of the Leviathan!" Lando went mad, "You've seen how he shouted at me on the Mora. I'm sick. What kind of private feelings do I have for him!"
"It's hard to say." Raymond said subtly, "I also shouted at you, but you didn't get jealous because you saw an inexplicable power of attorney..."
Raymond was halfway through speaking, and he glanced at the dark-haired young man's pale face with satisfaction, which turned from white to red to boiled shrimp... Although after a few seconds, the reaction was slow. The guy strongly expressed his serious protest against the statement of "eating a lot of vinegar", but it was obviously too late for him to say anything at this time. After all, the ashes of the parchment scroll in the trash can were his evidence.
Raymond sent the guy who hadn't slept all night and one morning back to the bedroom. The latter fell silent almost as soon as his head touched the pillow. The man standing by the bed pulled the quilt for him and was about to leave. However, before he turned around, he suddenly felt that someone grabbed his sleeve. He turned around and lowered his head, looking expressionlessly at the person on the bed who was so sleepy that he couldn't even open his eyes and still grabbed his sleeve. The guy narrowed his eyes slightly and said: "You are no longer a baby, I refuse to tell you any bedside stories...or lullabies."
"Xiaobai is not that fierce."
"If you asked to sing a lullaby at that time, even Xiaobai would have refused you severely."
"It's really not gentle. I deserve to never get a wife." Lando yawned and said in a tired voice, "It just occurred to me that Dill's survival depends on his own hard work, and you let him live It doesn't matter half a dime, right? Otherwise, why would you try to catch him in the prison..."
Before Lando finished speaking, he felt that half of the bed beside him had collapsed. He opened his eyes a little, and saw that the person who was about to leave sat down beside his pillow, and then... Rescued from his hands, Raymond half leaned against the bed, straightened his ruffled sleeves and said: "Last night, a certain guy was busy yelling that he missed Dad and crying about why I didn't come to save him. The guy probably didn't notice that when that nasty hamster climbed out of the railing, it didn't go empty-handed."
"Who are you talking about?" Lando asked.
Then I got a slap on the forehead.
He shrank his neck and pulled up the quilt a bit, and at the same time he heard Raymond continue: "That fat one
