Infinite Journey to the World of American Comics

Heidou is still a kitten, so he doesn't move very fast. However, he takes a shortcut. After all, cats are used to moving at high places.

The muscular figure of the little black bean loomed on the roof. In the night, only people like Richard and Diana could see its figure clearly and follow it. As for Steve, he had long given up on tracking the little black cat and just pedaled. A bicycle came from the roadside and followed closely behind Richard and the others. There was no way, they were almost unable to keep up...

Fortunately, just when Steve was about to run out of breath, the two of them stopped. Steve pedaled to their side, panting heavily while looking around, and suddenly discovered that they had arrived at a pier, and the little boy The black cat was on a wooden pile in front, staring at a cargo ship in front of it.

"... Ares is in that ship?" Steve asked in a low voice. The dilapidated pier, dim lights, and a broken ship that undulated slightly with no light were enough to arouse Steve's thoughts. My husband has some horrific childhood memories, and scaring children with ghost stories knows no bounds.

Kuraga

Diana didn't reply, just pulled out her sword, and Richard also pulled out his pistol, "It's hard to say whether Ares is on the ship or not, but the murderer must have been on that ship."

The three of them came to the side of the boat cautiously. Richard and Diana looked at each other, a little surprised, because they heard the sound of snoring coming from the cabin. This murderer must be a little too worried.

Diana jumped onto the ship first with a sword, followed closely by Richard. Steve... was responsible for watching the wind on the trestle... Accompanying him was Little Heidou, standing on his shoulder and watching quietly. Richard and the others disappeared into the cabin.

Strangely, there was no sound of fighting in the cabin for a long time, but Richard stuck his head out with a look of helplessness and waved to them.

Steve got into the cabin with the little black cat in a daze, followed Richard to the captain's cabin, and then saw a dirty and smelly man sleeping soundly holding a wine bottle.

"...This is Ares." Steve didn't even believe what he said. Even if Ares was good at pretending, he wouldn't pretend to be like this. It was too much, and it was purely suicide.

"No, not even the murderer." Richard glanced at the little black bean that jumped on his shoulder. When he saw that it looked at the big man without any reaction and was still wagging its tail, he knew that his judgment was correct, "There is no trace of it on him." Apart from being a bit stronger, there is nothing special about magic power, and it may not even be able to defeat you."

"Then why did Heidou bring us here to eat fish or drink?"

scare

Heidou bared his teeth at Steve and yelled in dissatisfaction, seeming to understand what he meant. Looking at the little guy's pair of blue eyes and white teeth in the darkness, Steve shrank his neck.

"Just ask him about the specific matter." Richard thought for a while and felt that he was not a detective, so he took the wine bottle in the big man's hand and poured it down on his face.

slam

"Oh, hell, storm." The big man's reaction after being aroused by the cold wine was quite professional. He rolled out of the chair and fell to the ground. Then he stood up with pain, only to see the three of Richard and the others. people.

The big man shook his head, trying to make sure whether he was too drunk to wake up or was dazzled. Then he saw the black cat on the shoulder of the man in front of him open his mouth and let out a roar. He immediately shuddered and woke up. A lot.

"Who are you?" the big man asked. He looked confused, as if he had not sobered up. However, when Richard controlled a pistol to float in front of him, his expression immediately changed. It was the pistol he had hidden behind his back. , why is it here, or in this way.

"Okay, don't pretend in front of us. We are not people you can fight against, just like the people who boarded your ship a few days ago." As Richard said, he used magic to dismantle the pistol into parts. With one hand, the big man sat back dejectedly.

"I knew it was hard to make money. Who knew I wouldn't be able to survive for even a week." The big man looked at the unopened bottles of good wine next to him, his eyes filled with melancholy. Then he picked up a bottle and opened the cap with his teeth. He took a sip and wiped his mouth.

"Well, what do you want to know, those damn Russians?"

"Russian" Richard and Steve were both stunned and looked at each other, "Are you sure the person you pulled before was a Russian?"

"Of course, we were still considered Russians before independence, so we could still admit our mistakes."

"How many people are there and who is leading them?"

"There were almost 20 people, all carrying guns. The leader was a bald man. They also brought many boxes, but they had never been opened. I don't know what was inside."

Although it is Russian, there is no way to tell whether there is an Ark of the Covenant inside the box. There is no Ares in it.

"Where did they ask you to send them?"

"Alcatraz."

"Alcatraz"

"Yes, it's about two hours' journey east from here. There is an abandoned ruins on that island. It is said that there was a village there a long time ago, but for some reason a demon was released and killed all the people on the island. Everyone. Of course, these are just legends, but the sea area there is covered with heavy fog at night, which has swallowed up several boats, and they have all lost their traces. Even if they go during the day, they cannot be found. Everyone who sails here knows that You can’t go there.”

"Then you still go"

"It's better to be devoured than to die poor. This damn war has made everything terrible. No one will buy the fish we caught. As long as we can make money, let alone Alcatraz, I will go to hell." Anyway, after my mother died, I was the only one left in our family." The big man took another sip of wine and said nonchalantly.

"Then, I'll give you another chance to make money and take us to Alcatraz Island." Richard skillfully took out a wad of pounds from Steve's pocket and placed it in front of the big man's face. Looking at the thick banknotes, the big man I couldn't help but lick my lips. This thing holds its value much better than the ruble. As long as you have money, you can sail a boat for anyone other than sailing a boat.

"Okay." The big man grabbed the pound and stuffed it into his pocket. Then he grabbed the captain's hat on the table and put it on his head and ran out. Steve quickly followed him and saw him striding to the bow of the ship to untie the cable. opened, and then raised the anchor again.

Then there was the matter of lighting the stove and starting the turbine. The big man was really good at controlling the cargo ship.

After completing all the work, the big man returned to the cab and controlled the cargo ship to leave the dock. While looking at the positioning device on the ship, he looked at the dark front, "We will arrive at Alcatraz in a while. You have to be responsible for dispersing the heavy fog. Ah, I can’t do this.”

"Who dispelled the fog before?"

"That bald man waved his hand, and the fog dispersed."

It seems that this Russian bald man is a bit interesting.
