I summon the shadow army in Pirates.

Reality is never a fairy tale.

The middle-aged reporter was eventually fired after failing to complete the news assignment given by the editor-in-chief.

How do middle-aged men feel after losing their jobs.

Coles didn't know it clearly, nor did he want to know it, because people's joys and sorrows were not the same. He only felt that these were a bit noisy.

Of course, he did not originate this statement.

in the coming time.

Coles continued his patrol duties.

The naval soldiers who followed the patrol, including Dusky, gradually understood that Lieutenant Coles was not a cold person.

Because the second lieutenant will help chop wood for the elderly who have lost their labor force, will help people who have lost their wallets to find out the bandits, and will do their best to prevent pirates from landing...

But Lieutenant Coles will never allow his family to be in danger. The gangsters who fell in Rogge Town are a lesson learned from the past!

……

Rumble!

The sky was dark and deep.

In the deep sky filled with black clouds, a wandering lightning suddenly appeared.

A strong wind came through the window.

The curtains were blown and flying.

Bartolomeo suddenly sat up from the bed, his tattooed face full of fear, and the clothes on his back were already soaked with cold sweat.

He swallowed hard and began to get out of bed in search of hot water to quench his thirst.

As the steaming hot water poured into his throat, the fear in his heart was gradually suppressed.

Yes, he was dreaming again!

Although more than ten days have passed.

But the scenes that happened to the gang that day always echoed in his mind for a long time, and sometimes even reappeared in his dreams.

The terrifying knight in black armor kept waving his sword in the dark restaurant, taking away the lives of the top gang leaders.

What frightened Bartolomeo the most was the young man holding a strange red knife.

With the same simple sword strike, the powerful BOSS Gray was killed on the spot!

The feeling of coldness and trembling frightened him even now.

Just like Hades!

Bartolomeo's throat felt dry again, and he immediately drank hot water again.

No, we can't continue like this!

You have to overcome your fear and face it head on!

……

The next morning.

Rogue Town, West Side Villa.

After eating breakfast, Coles took his sister Vilciya out of the villa's door.

Coles, who holds the rank of second lieutenant in the Navy Headquarters, is treated very well in Rogge Town.

He does not need to live at the naval base, he only needs to go on duty every day.

Moreover, the daily duty time is half an hour less than that of the regular navy.

This is the benefit of military rank.

Coles was very satisfied with this.

This kind of life where you can get along with your family every day and go to work conveniently should not be too easy.

However, as soon as Coles walked out of the villa, he saw a green-haired young man squatting on a piece of green grass.

Versia also remembered this young man and asked doubtfully: "Brother, isn't this the strange green-haired rooster-combed pigeon from before?"

Coles guessed that Bartolomeo should have something to do with him, so he said to Velcia.

"Brother, I won't send you to school today, okay?"

"Why?" Wilsia was confused.

"Because you have to learn to be independent!" Coles scratched his sister's fair nose with his finger.

"Okay." Wilsia nodded seriously, and then boarded the carriage at the school ahead.

Walk away as the carriage drives.

Coles' eyes flashed, and the two [Shadow Knights] merged into the shadow of the carriage.

If their sister's life is in danger, they will immediately stand up to protect Velcia's safety.

This is the vigilance that Coles was born after experiencing the Rogue Town gang incident.

Similarly, his father Ronald also has two [Shadow Knights] lurking in the shadows.

It's just that they don't know it.

After his sister's carriage to go to school left, Coles also came to the front of Bartolomeo.

On Coles' chest, there is a silver exquisite pocket watch hanging, with a silver chain forming a half "U" shape on it.

This was a gift that my father spent two hours choosing in a pocket watch shop before choosing it for him.

The purpose is to let Coles see the time clearly.

Commute to get off work on time.

In fact, the pocket watches in that pocket watch store were all similar, but the clerk introduced each one, and my father had difficulty choosing, which was why it took so long.

Coles did not live up to his father's "good intentions" and directly hung it on his chest.

Marines below first class wear basic navy uniforms and hats. After being promoted to corps commander, you can choose to dress in various ways, even in casual clothes, but you are still prohibited from wearing clothes that do not suit the image of the navy.

Those above the rank of lieutenant officer are allowed to wear a coat with "Justice" written on the back and paired with the standard uniform, while those above the rank of lieutenant officer are allowed to wear a coat with "Justice" written on the back and paired with personalized casual clothes.

Coles is wearing a standard uniform, with a navy "Justice" coat on his back and a silver pocket watch hanging on his chest.

After all, you’ve never seen Smoker carrying a full collection of cigars on his navy uniform.

"You have three minutes to speak."

Coles took out his pocket watch, opened the cover, glanced at the time, and then put it back in his breast pocket.

Hear this long-lost cold voice.

Bartolomeo seemed to have returned to that night when the other party let him go.

thump!

Bartolomeo knelt on his knees and said sincerely: "Second Lieutenant Coles, I go through suffering every day, please give me a clear path!"

Because of kidnapping Coles' sister.

The Rogue Town gang was destroyed in the anger of the other party, and became the same thing as yesterday.

A few days after that incident, the young man became a second lieutenant of the Navy Headquarters and performed daily patrols in Rogge Town.

Although Bartolomeo was lucky enough to be spared by Coles, he never knew how to move forward due to fear and fear in his heart, so he came to ask for clarification.

Coles was stunned.

Ask him to show you the way?

However, he soon discovered the fear in Bartolomeo's heart.

This was obviously caused by his ruthless attack in the mafia casino at that time, which brought too much psychological pressure to Bartolomeo.

If Bartolomeo's current concept changes, will the vicious "cannibal" title not appear in the future?

After thinking about it carefully, Coles felt that this possibility was very high, so he decided to influence the still young Bartolomeo.

"Go to church more and read the Bible. The way to salvation is in it." (Barsomiro Xiong held a book with "BIBLE" written on the cover that looked like a Bible)

After saying this sentence.

Coles didn't say anything else and turned directly to go to work at the naval base.

As for whether Bartolomeo would change because of his words, he didn't know.

Bartolomeo can change the best, but it doesn't matter if he can't. The most Coles can do is sigh, and when he encounters him doing evil in the future, he will kill him.

"Bible?"

Bartolomeo raised his head and looked at Coles walking towards the rising sun, feeling particularly dazzling.

Although he didn't know the meaning of Coles telling him to read more of the Bible, Bartolomeo decided to try to read it.

As for the Bible, there is a huge church in the north of Rogge Town.

There must be a Bible there.

After a ten minute walk.

Bartolomeo arrived outside this huge church, and the faint ringing of the bells made him fall into silence.

Finally, he walked into the church with trepidation.

Maybe it's because of the early morning.

The church was very empty, with few people around.

There was only an old man with gray hair cleaning the floor.

"What are you doing, you want to pray and listen to the godfather's blessing?"

Bartolomeo answered subconsciously.

"I'm here to read the Bible."

Hearing this, the old man sweeping the floor suddenly lost interest and pointed at the table casually.

"It's above, see for yourself."

Bartolomeo didn't care about the other party's reaction, and slowly came to the position that belonged to the godfather.

On the countertop is a thick book with a purple cover, and its name is "The Bible".

As Bartolomeo opened the cover of the Bible, the contents inside came into view.

At the same time, he began to recall what Coles had said before.

“The way to salvation is in it.”
