Chapter 20 The Tethered Bat

It’s midnight.

Some pirates who were always urinating at night came to the deck, rubbing their eyes while untying their belts. Suddenly, he felt a chill of chill inexplicably, his eyes widened suddenly, and a bald figure at the stern disappeared.

“Bill?”

The night was too dark to see clearly. He woke up from sleep and walked quickly towards the shadows, but there was nothing but a few empty wine barrels.

Such a scene was frequently staged this night. The next day, a weird story circulated on the Via. Some people said that while peeing last night, they accidentally saw a sneaky figure. Bill.

At the beginning, no one believed it, only that people were still dreaming. It was all nonsense, but soon, as more and more pirates woke up, some pirates even vowed to say that they saw Bill. .

like? perhaps? Sure, it must be Bill!

What’s interesting is that in only one morning, the news that Bill was still alive was confirmed by countless witnesses, and every witness described the story of last night vividly. In the story, Bill went from back to front. From the action, to the tone, and to the demeanor, everything is vivid.

“I’ve been peeing, seeing a figure, I looked there, isn’t it Bill? He saw me and his face turned pale in fright, so he ran away, but I’m still peeing, isn’t it? Tie pants? With this delay, he doesn’t know where to hide…”

The unshaven pirate rubbed the excrement from the corner of his eye, and splashed with saliva.

Next to Fick, his ears were pricked up, and the scars and facial features on his face were almost squeezed into a ball. His eyes were strange and suspicious. If it hadn’t been clear that Bill must be dead, he almost believed this group of bastards.

“But, if it weren’t for Bill, who did these guys see? Are they dazzled? It’s not possible.” Fick couldn’t think of it, he decided to listen to every version of the story. Tell Yarlin if you want to.

Captain’s room.

William Nair pulled his head, and sweat dripped from his forehead.

“It seems that what you came to say last night is true. Bill is really not dead.” Via put down the malt bread on the plate, staring at William with a gloomy expression: “Then you said our first officer Where did you hide a living person?”

“I, I don’t know.” William wiped the sweat on his forehead and said anxiously: “The first officer must have noticed that I have come to inform the informant. That’s why Bill escaped from where he was hiding and went to other places. He happened to be caught by others. People have seen it. Captain, you must protect me…”

It turned out that as soon as he left the storage warehouse last night, William quietly came to the captain to report on the first officer Lowe. The content of the report was that Bill was not dead at all. Everything was a conspiracy designed by the first officer to prevent “The idea of ​​accusation was planted on the captain.

And he William was persecuted, he was loyal to the captain.

“Don’t worry, I already understand your loyalty. I won’t let the first officer hurt you. I will find Bill by digging three feet.” Wea still had doubts last night, but now we can confirm that William said. It’s true, of course, he needs to save William’s life, in order to bite the first mate, and make everything a dead end.

Wea pondered for a while, then turned to Moore who was silent and said: “Let William live in a house with you these days.”

Moore glanced at William, nodded, and William quickly gave a grateful smile.

“It’s all spreading outside. Everyone is saying that Bill is not dead. It has a nose and eyes. Now it’s even spreading that we hide Bill and fabricate his death to blame Via.” Gan Xiweier watched. With Lowe, he couldn’t help but become suspicious.

In fact, don’t talk about Gan Xiweier, it is that Lowe himself began to doubt the authenticity of the whole thing. After all, it has always been William’s words that Bill died. No one else has seen Bill’s body again.

“Where is William?” Lowe asked.

Bang!

Shaqiri opened the door angrily and walked in, “I saw William coming out of the captain’s room, with old Moore. This bastard betrayed us and turned to the captain.”

Before he finished his words, Lowe’s face changed. He knocked over the table with a punch and gritted his teeth and said: “Bastard William, he lied to us, I must kill him.”

“What do you mean?” Ganzivir asked.

“William said that Yarlin killed Bill. I have not doubted his remarks, but now Bill is still alive, and William is on the captain’s side. It is obvious that William betrayed us from the beginning. Ya is setting up the game, and everyone on the ship now thinks that we hid Bill in order to plant the coveted captain’s position.” Lowe’s teeth bulged, and the fierce light was revealed: “Once William kills this matter, Via will You can take advantage of the situation and let me hand over Bill, and if I can’t hand over, he can frame me to kill…”

“No!” The flesh on Lowe’s face stiffened, and a more dangerous thought emerged in his heart: “Bill is not in my hands, so it is always in Via’s hands. The appearance of Bill last night was not a coincidence. It was discovered that Bill was also manipulated by Via!!!”

Analyzing the whole matter from Lowe’s perspective, it is not surprising that he came to this conclusion. A William is not enough. If even Bill… Lowe’s heart is chilled, he really can’t argue.

“We can’t give Via a chance, we have to act first!” Lowe said cruelly at Gan Xiweier, Shaqiri, and Gucci: “Let our people be ready, see my signal, and then kill Via .”

The three of Gan Xivir left, and went to prepare separately.

Lowe paced back and forth in place, calculating time in his mind, rushing into trouble, time must be determined by every second, and in the meantime, he must find a way to appease Via and buy himself a little more time for preparation.

Thinking of this, he turned his head and stared at the pale and weak ship doctor who was lying on the bed, “I’ll go out. You’d better not run anywhere, just stay here.”



The pirates on the deck in twos and threes stared at the first mate’s gloomy face with weird eyes, and Lowe’s gloomy gaze scanned the crowd, without saying a word, and walked towards the captain’s room.

……………………..

A rope is wrapped around the little finger of Via’s hand, and the other end of the rope is tied with a black ugly living thing gathered by wing membranes, only half of his head is exposed and the large ears are slightly fanning and making a “squeaking” sound. A reared bat.

“This bat has been there since the captain sailed for the first time, and it has been alive until now. I thought he would have died a long time ago.” Lowe’s eyes were attracted by the bat, and his tone was intriguing.

Viapi smiled and didn’t smile, and his black and white eyes stared at Lowe, “This bat has been struggling for freedom, but I don’t know it. It just needs to wait patiently, and soon I will let it go. But it just wanted to resist, and instead irritated its master. It has been tied up by me for so many years. Are you saying it is stupid?”

In the words, the machine front was hidden, and the murderous intent surged. Luo Wei grinned and said: “The captain is joking, but he is just a beast. Why should you be familiar with it and let him go, he will naturally recite the captain’s kindness in the future.”

A short silence!

Via stood up expressionlessly, pulled her little finger, the bat was caught in his palm, slowly and hard, the bat wailed, Lowe’s eyes were getting worse and worse when looking at Via, but he did not move, just died. Staring deadly at the struggling bat.

Wea opened the door, and said with a smile, “I really can’t bear it.”

The palm of the hand was loosened, and the seemingly dying bat suddenly spread its black wings and flew towards the sky staggering. A piece of rope in mid-air was blown by the wind and fell onto Lowe’s hair. He grabbed the rope and his pupils shrank. The line was stained with blood.
