Pirate's Portable Space

City Hall, evening.

Huggins tightened his windbreaker and lowered the brim of his hat, leaving only half of his face exposed. He quickly walked out of the door and flagged down a taxi.

"East Street Cinema."

"okay."

The taxi slowly moved into traffic.

On the street where no one noticed, a dark car started and followed closely.

Huggins put his hands in his pockets, looking out the window at the speeding scene, absent-mindedly, rubbing his palms constantly, looking restless.

I don’t know what happened to Captain Big Golden Tooth. Damn it, I really should have killed him in the first place.

After Huggins obtained the 20 energy crystals promised by "Night Owl", he has been busy using some of the energy crystals to bribe pirates and cause trouble for political opponents.

For a moment, he ignored Captain Golden Tooth.

After all, it was just a small role that Huggins didn't care about at all, so he only learned about the fact that the other party had been missing for a whole day after he specifically inquired about it.

Huggins works in the city hall. After talking to Finance Minister Isabel about the city planning for the second half of the year and reporting the budget, he asked about the current situation of the other party's husband, the naval base director Freeman.

During the conversation, Isabel complained that Freeman had not been home for a long time and spent the whole day at the naval base with a young man named Lister, seemingly looking up some information.

After hearing this, Huggins suddenly broke out in a cold sweat on his back.

What information did Lister check?

Could it be related to what happened on June 6th?

Huggins was wondering, and then he remembered that Captain Da Jinya provided him with the ship. He couldn't get through on the phone, so he went to the romantic place where he often went to look for him. He learned from his crew that Captain Da Jinya had been missing for a whole day. One day.

After Huggins thought about it carefully, he became flustered. In line with the principle of being careful and never making a big mistake, he immediately decided to take the risk and contact Griffin to report the matter.

Going to the cinema at this time is to be invited by Griffin to meet him.

Hudgens first met Griffin in a movie theater. He is a loyal movie lover and an idealist who has a soft spot for literary films with niche themes.

The same goes for Griffin. The two once had an in-depth discussion about a film after a movie night.

That day, Huggins was asked a lot of incomprehensible questions. After that, he became an undercover agent of the Amberley State in Vail City, helping to deal with some things that were inconvenient for Griffin to do.

He was always on tenterhooks, but in order to become the mayor, he never regretted it.

Huggins had his vision. He wanted Vail to become like Piaga, with an inner city and an outer city.

Under his mobilization, the proposal to divide the inner city and the outer city was passed by the council, but was ultimately vetoed by the mayor. The mayor was above the council and had the power to veto bills passed by the city council.

Because the mayor believes that residents, regardless of their status, are part of the city of Vail and should not be treated differently.

Huggins hated the old man who smiled and persuaded him to put aside his hatred of the poor.

How can it be so easy to let go of the hatred that pushes a person from heaven to hell?

Few people know that Huggins actually came from a wealthy middle-class family, and the culprit who caused him to become an orphan was a poor robber living nearby.

The poor robber killed his parents for money, destroyed his family, and plunged the life of Huggins, who was still a child, into darkness and loneliness.

Although the man was eventually caught and executed, the lives of Huggins' parents and the money that was robbed could not be recovered.

Huggins hated him. In the process of struggling at the bottom of society, he gradually became paranoid and hated the poor as a group.

University social practice, after seeing the urban design of Piaga City, the management methods of the inner city and the outer city have been imprinted in Huggins' mind for a long time, and he can't get rid of it.

He couldn't help but think that if the poor robber had lived in the outer city, his parents would not have to die.

Huggins' eyes were distracted and a little lost.

"Guest, the cinema has arrived. The total is 480 beli."

Huggins shook his head to get rid of the messy thoughts.

He didn't know the progress of Griffin's investigation into Captain Goldtooth, and he didn't want to care. Huggins came to the appointment today, mainly because he wanted to persuade the other party to take risks and kill Freeman as soon as possible.

As long as Freeman is alive, his plan against the mayor cannot be carried out. Freeman has a lot of protective power around his wife and father-in-law.

As for Liszt, Huggins' impression of him still lingered on the day they met in Piaga City, and he did not think that the other party was a difficult character.

On the top floor, in the movie theater, coming out of the elevator, there was a huge crowd, and Hudgens looked very inconspicuous.

Suddenly, his body was touched.

Huggins looked up, his pupils narrowed, and a man wearing a peaked cap and a blue mask walked straight towards the safe passage. He put his right hand behind his back and made weird gestures towards Huggins.

It's Griffin

Huggins was a little surprised, but followed him anyway.

Usually, the two of them communicated in an inconspicuous corner of the dark screening room.

Maybe it’s because I don’t have the time to watch a movie today.

The safe passage and empty stairs are in sharp contrast to the crowded crowd outside.

"you"

Huggins closed the door, and as soon as he said a word, he suddenly felt that the atmosphere was not right.

The man in front of him suddenly turned around, pressed Huggins against the wall, and covered Huggins' mouth and nose with his hands.

A knife.

Pierce the heart.

Huggins' eyes widened with disbelief on his face.

He hasn't recovered yet.

"Woooooooooooo."

Huggins kept struggling, but his movements pulled the wound, and blood flowed out.

How can a person with a clerical job be more powerful than a well-trained person?

Huggins' limbs began to become weak and he couldn't break free. His eyes showed despair and his eyelids drooped uncontrollably.

It wasn't until the person in his hand stopped moving that Griffin slowly let go of his arm and groped up and down.

Finally I found the phone bug in the lining pocket and got it.

Griffin put away the phone bug and couldn't help but regretted, "Hudgens, don't blame me."

He couldn't find Liszt all day today, and there was news from the Revolutionary Army that Captain Golden Tooth seemed to have been taken away by Liszt, so he had no choice but to kill him.

A stone weighing heavily on Griffin's heart finally fell.

He was about to open the stair door and go out, when his hand movements suddenly stopped.

Looking through a square piece of glass in the upper part of the door, a familiar figure was walking quickly, and it was Liszt.

Lister started driving from City Hall and followed Huggins.

When they arrived at the cinema and Huggins got on the elevator, Lister did not choose to take the same elevator with him in order to prevent him from being discovered.

After reaching the top floor, Liszt saw Huggins pushing the door open and entering the stairwell from a distance, and felt bad.

Rush through the crowd quickly.

Opening the door, Liszt saw a figure passing by, going down, and disappearing around the corner of the stairs.

Huggins is dead. The man just killed Huggins.

The smell of blood was pungent, and Liszt judged the situation in an instant.

At this time, it is useless to worry about Huggins' death. The man in the peaked hat must be caught.

He stepped over Huggins' body and dived down as fast as he could.

Griffin noticed the "bang bang bang" sound of Liszt coming down the stairs behind him, and felt heavy in his heart.

Start facing the wall.

"Six Types of Secret Six King Spears."

The shock wave directly destroyed the wall and a large hole appeared.

Griffin jumped up and fell from mid-air.

...

At this time, on the top floor of the cinema, in the unattended safe passage, Huggins opened his eyes like a ghost, and the blood from the wound had stopped flowing.

The cave devil fruit has superhuman abilities.

Huggins' energy crystal, in addition to buying off the pirates, also traded a devil fruit from the pirates.

For pirates, a Devil Fruit with unknown abilities and the possibility of turning into a landlubber is far less useful than a power crystal.

The Hole Fruit can control the hole poked by a knife in the body and close it. However, because of Huggins' crystal energy and lack of time, the fruit's ability can only be used on himself.

After spending the last energy crystal, Huggins activated his ability and was out of danger.

He looked pale and stood up slowly. The energy crystals in his hands had turned into dust.

"Perhaps, if I kill the mayor, even if I die, the outer city's bill can still be implemented."
