When William woke up again, Clow did not return to his room. He didn't care. He went to find the old pirate Hutcherson who led him to familiar with the environment on the ship yesterday, and followed the other party to work on the ship.

Sailing at sea is very boring, and manipulating sails is a heavy and tedious task. However, you must pay attention to and adjust the sails at sea to borrow erratic wind. In addition, in order to avoid infectious diseases, it is necessary to ensure that the hygiene on the ship is not bad. Cleaning the deck with sea water has become a task that must be completed every day.

While washing the deck, William deliberately told him to tell Clow in a show-off tone that he had a conflict with him in the room to Hutcherson and several old pirates working with nearby ones.

The reaction of a group of old pirates confirmed how popular Clow is on the ship. After hearing William say that Clow "flees in panic", they all laughed out loud.

After laughing, Hutcherson rubbed his red rosacea, took out a copper wine pot from his arms, and fed a sip of wine, then handed it to his nearby companion, and said kindly to William: "You shouldn't be so reckless. You have just gotten on the boat and don't understand many things on the boat."

The copper wine pot was passed back and forth among several pirates, but was finally handed to William by an old pirate. He picked up the wine pot without hesitation and blew up like the others. Then he wiped the wine stains on the corner of his mouth with the back of his hand, and said with a carefree look: "Don't worry, he must be no match for me."

An old pirate laughed: "Hatcherson is not afraid that you can't beat him, but that you two are afraid that you will have a conflict, so the captain helps him."

William asked in discomfortably, "What? Is he the captain's confidant?"

"More than that," said another old pirate sarcastically, "He is the captain's loyal dog. He stares at the other people on the ship all day long. He needs to count any spoils after all, as if he is afraid that others will take away his master's share."

Another pirate said, "It may not be a dog raised by the captain. I don't think he is trusted by the captain like the deputy captain and Mr. Heileding."

William blinked. It seemed that not everyone on the pirate ship was a fool. Although Clow's real situation was limited to the three Red Bearded Brothers and a few people, no one guessed that Clow might have been sent by other forces to follow the ship. They just didn't know who was standing behind Clow.

However, even so, the pirates' attitude towards Clow will not change. This does not even have anything to do with Clow's own personality and behavior, but simply because of his own interests.

Almost every pirate's trophy is carried with his own or his companions' blood. Not all the pirates are the protagonists of the boy comics, full of passion and unrealistic fantasies. Most pirates live a life of licking blood from the knife, and they are just money and treasures.

They had a shallow look, and did not know the importance of intelligence and logistics support. They only felt that it was not fair that the things they had snatched for their lives would be taken away by someone for nothing.

"Hey, stop talking," Hutcherson saw the deputy captain Rece coming here from a distance, and quickly took the wine pot back into his arms, and called William and others to work together. Finally, he advised, "No matter who his dog is, the owner behind him is not something we can mess with, so don't be so impulsive next time, Stolt."

...

In Hongye Village, an inconspicuous small merchant ship slowly docked on the dock. Sherlock, with a somewhat haggard face, got off the boat. At first glance, he saw Edmund and Alamis waiting. Although the pier was coming and going, there was no one around them.

As soon as she saw Sherlock appear, Edmund and Alamis met him.

Sherlock was carrying a suitcase in his hand. Seeing that he looked a little haggard, Alamis wanted to help him carry it, but he refused.

Alamis stopped insisting and said, "I have asked Tony to arrange a place to live."

Sherlock nodded, thanking the other party for his kindness. It was not that he was rude, but that he was so tired that he didn't want to speak.

After killing the person, Sherlock immediately left the family base camp without stopping, but this does not mean that he had abandoned all the wealth in his family.

The so-called cunning rabbit has three holes, living in a society where pirates are rampant. The businessmen in this world understand this truth more than anyone else. If they concentrate their wealth in one place, as long as they are robbed by pirates, all efforts will be gone.

The Flash Gold Trading Company has accumulated a lot of wealth over several generations. The specific business, because most of it is in the territory of the Navia Kingdom, Sherlock can only give up, but Sherlock is not going to throw it to his enemies if he can take away or hide cash, antique collection and other property that can be collected or hidden.

While Arcadio had not received the message or had not reacted to it, Sherlock had been running around everywhere, busy transferring his property. Because time was rushed, there were many losses in the process, but he couldn't care so much, so he could only seize the time. It was not until now that the ending was completed, and he could temporarily relax and take a rest.

Sherlock followed Alamis and Edmund to a small courtyard that had been prepared in advance. He was not interested in seeing the environment. After coming to the bedroom, he almost lost control when he saw the soft bed for the first time and fell on it. After a while, snoring sounds came.

Edmund and Alamis looked at each other and quietly left the room. When they left, they closed the door.

Sherlock slept until the next morning before he woke up from hunger. When he pushed open the bedroom door, Edmund and Alamis were sitting in the living room for breakfast.

Sherlock heard that the two had gaps because of Wallon's death, but now it seems that although the two are not very close, they are not as close as they do not interact with each other. He even feels that they are much more mature than before, unlike before, and they are not as strong as they used to be, and they both write their dislike of each other's attitude on their faces.

Seeing him appear, Edmund smiled and pointed to the extra breakfast on the table: "I knew you would definitely be hungry."

Sherlock slept for a while, looking much better. He thanked him and moved his chair to sit down. He smiled bitterly, "I am a wanted criminal now. I really don't know where to go. I can only come here to trouble you."

"William already knows about you, and he asked me to tell you that you can live here with peace of mind, it is safe here," Edmund said.

When Sherlock heard him mention William, he asked the doubts in his heart: "Where is William? Why haven't I seen him?"

"William is now on the boat of the 'Red Beard' Barbarossa," Edmund said.

Unexpectedly, when Sherlock heard this, her expression changed. Edmund knew that he had misunderstood what he hadn't finished and quickly explained, "He was very safe. He was on board the ship with a disguise of his identity."

Sherlock relaxed a little, but said: "'Red Beard' is not easy to mess with. This news cannot be told casually."

Alamis jerked, "William said, you are not an outsider."

The knife and fork that were moving in Sherlock paused slightly. After the ups and downs, he felt a little moved when he heard these words.
