King Snake General of Pirates

The spacious living room suddenly became audible.

At this time, Renaf felt very nervous looking at Hal who had no obvious mood swings across from him. He had said everything he could say, but the other party did not give the slightest reaction, which made him feel very uneasy.

Hal crossed his legs and leaned back on the sofa, thinking of something very interesting.

Reinulf's idea is actually similar to Matthew's plan. Both of them plan to use the power of the navy to get rid of the big forces in the Western Military Region and then take control of this area. The difference is that Reinulf is more rough, while Ma Xiu Hugh's plan was relatively more modest.

"Things suddenly got interesting."

The Western Military Region, a lawless place, was originally a competition between three forces, but now it will become four forces.

But directly intervening in this matter as a navy is already considered as intervening in the internal affairs of the participating countries.

So Hal shook his head, stretched out a finger and waved it left and right, and refused directly: "I think you may have misunderstood. The navy's duty is to arrest pirates, not gangsters, and only pirates are the ones this time." The goal of the action.”

Hearing this, Renaff's eyes were slightly disappointed.

He didn't react immediately to Hal's rejection. After thinking for a while, he stood up and ran a few steps quickly. He picked up a small wooden box with beautiful appearance and heavy weight from the cabinet on the side and hugged it in his arms. into his arms, and then carefully placed it in front of Hal.

Hal looked down.

The surface of the wooden box is carved with exquisite and beautiful patterns, and there are many small red and green gemstones inlaid around it. It looks sparkling and valuable.

Combined with the way Renulf carefully put down the heavy wooden box, he could guess what was inside with just a few guesses.

For a poor Western Military Region commander to be able to give away such a large amount of treasure, it seems that he usually does a lot of dirty things.

"What are you doing, bribing a naval officer?"

"No, of course not. This is an apology for my previous temptation and rudeness to you. Please accept it regardless of past grudges." Reinulf shook his head and smiled.

Well, what a good excuse it is.

There are all kinds of reasons for giving gifts, and you are worthy of someone who was once a noble.

However, the weight of this apology is too heavy, and people dare not accept it, otherwise it will easily fall into the trap.

Hal's eyes did not fall on the treasure chest. He stared closely at the top of Renaf's head. The hairless area reflected the light under the light, and it looked like it was glowing by itself.

"The light above is much brighter than the one on the treasure chest." Hal murmured softly.

Renulf was confused: "What are you talking about?"

"It's okay. Since I have nothing else to do, I'll leave first." Hal waved his cloak, not wanting to waste any more time with stupid people here, got up and walked out the door.

"Don't you care at all about the poor people struggling at the bottom?" Seeing that Hal turned around and left, Reinoff became a little anxious and yelled, "It seems that the rumors are all false, you idiot with a false reputation. !”

Unfortunately, Hal has left the manor.

After Hal left, Renaf sat down angrily, took a sip from the water glass, and moistened his lips that were dry due to nervousness: "I didn't expect this guy to be so difficult to talk."

At this time, an old man walked in from the back of the living room. He walked up to Renaff with a smile, not afraid of making Renaff angry at all.

"Butler, what are you laughing at? According to what you said, the other party has already rejected me." Renaf said dissatisfied.

His dissatisfaction was not with the butler, but with Hal.

Reinulf would never take out the anger he received from outsiders on the housekeeper. After all, the other person had been taking care of the family since his father's time and often gave Reinoff advice, which was how he gained his current huge foundation.

But I didn't expect that this time even the housekeeper made a mistake. According to his words, the other party not only refused to agree, but also embarrassed himself.

This made Reinulf feel depressed.

The wrinkled skin on the old housekeeper's face was almost twisted together. He breathed a long sigh of relief and sat on the sofa. He slowly said: "Just being frustrated when encountering a problem is the stupidest thing to do. Use your brain to think more, not only Find the special meaning in the other person’s words, and also think about whether what he said is consistent with his personality.”

"What do you mean?" Renaff was confused.

"Don't listen to what he said, watch what he did." The old housekeeper smiled meaningfully, "Hurry up and chase him. Before he goes far, find a few smarter soldiers to follow him and take a look. , maybe there will be unexpected gains.”

"Come on! Come on!" Reinulf shouted.

……

At this time, Hal left Renaff's manor and walked alone on the streets near the residential area. I don't know whether he wasted too much time or Valentine was in a hurry and didn't see him when he came out.

As we got further and further away from Renaff's manor, more and more civilians lived nearby.

Although the living conditions of people living in civilian areas are equally miserable, they can barely survive.

Under his feet was a road formed by the dried yellow mud. Hal walked slowly along a metamorphic river filled with various plastics, domestic garbage and colorful unknown objects. This polluted and smelly river was nearby. The only source of water for residents.

The river is not wide, only about two meters, and it doesn't look deep.

A few women, covered only by a few rags, stood in the river washing their clothes. The water only reached their knees.

There were many tattered buckets, metal vessels and other tools that could hold water on both sides of the river. Hal took a look inside those tools and saw that they were actually filled with polluted water in the river.

Some tools have been left for a long time, and there is a layer of things floating on the surface of the river water inside. There are tiny substances floating in the middle, which is relatively cleaner water, and the bottom is heavy impurities such as sand and gravel.

"It seems that they use this ancient filtration method to obtain drinkable 'clean' water." Hal recalled living in the slums when he was a child. In addition to robbing others, he drank the dew on the leaves in the mountains and the accumulated water in the puddles. Water, rain, etc.

The living conditions of the residents in front of them are not even as good as their own at that time.

The surrounding area is dry and desolate, with dry and decaying trees everywhere, and no green grass at all. It is completely different from the environment of Renove Manor, which is full of vegetation and flower beds.

Hal continued walking forward.

Some people gradually noticed Hal, but when they saw him wearing a black suit and a cape of justice, no one dared to come forward to speak, and no one came to stop Hal when he looked at the water container.

It seems that he is not afraid of his water being taken away.

This group of poor people, who may never get out of this small world in their entire lives, have never seen the navy, let alone know the identity of Hal. When they see the gorgeous clothes on him that they have never seen before, they wonder where Hal is. Here comes the rich young master.

The women standing in the river washing their clothes just glanced at Hal, with undisguised envy in their eyes, and then lowered their heads to do their own things.

They deeply understand that this kind of rich young man comes to their poor place just to show off his wealth and difference, so that the poor people can worship him and please him.

If someone really does that, the better young men from the rich family will laugh and give some charity, and the bad ones will even despise the person who is groveling to please, and then leave here arrogantly and continue to live their lives. My own happy days.

After seeing him more times, they stopped paying attention.
