Chapter 423: Stray Puppy
Translator: 549690339
After a little peace of mind, the wolf cub came to the door of Vivianâs room. The door was still tightly closed. He could sense that the little girl was well inside, and Vivianâs panel was normal.
After doing all this, the little wolf cub moved again and continued to look for Ann on the ship.
There was nothing on the deck or in the corridor of the passenger level.
The only place left was the restaurant on the first floor.
There werenât many passengers at this hour. Coupled with the delayed announcement, there probably werenât many who had an appetite. On the contrary, the samurai on the ship didnât seem to be too worried about this. Perhaps it was because they were about to arrive, but their behavior was far more relaxed than two days ago. A few people gathered together to eat, drink, and chat.
The wolf cub quickly recognized one of the tables. It was probably the supervising warrior in charge of managing the coolies, because the one who was drunk and shouting in the middle was the one who led the team in the previous two times.
Thinking about how this person had treated Ann during their two encounters, the little wolf cub was furious. He had wanted to leave as soon as possible, or else he would have been unable to resist teaching him a lesson, but in the end, the little wolf cub had no choice but to stop.
That was becauseâŠ
âSigh, there are so many idiots these days. Do you still remember the bandaged freak I mentioned to you two days ago who insisted on joining the ship as a coolie and even paid me to bribe him?â
â I have some impression of him. At that time, we were even saying, âIchiro, youâre such a bad boy. Heâs willing to work as a coolie just to get on this ship, but you deliberately made things difficult for him and insisted on collecting some benefits.ââ
The other supervisors nodded their heads one after another. They seemed to be condemning him, but in reality, everyone could see that they were a little envious. Why didnât they catch up with them when they had such a good opportunity to give them money and benefits?
âItâs this strange man with bandages. Guess what happened today? He actually came to our restaurant and wanted to spend money to buy food. Hahaha, when I arrived, I almost laughed to death!â
The supervisor burst into laughter and slammed the table. The rest of his colleagues also looked surprised and soon laughed.
âItâs not that I want to say that, but that coolie under you canât really think that theyâre considered passengers on this ship, right? She even wanted to buy food. What could she buy with her pitiful copper coins?â
Sigh, donât be anxious, donât be happy. Sheâs behind us. Guess, why did she suddenly come to buy food?â âIchiro said with a mysterious smile.
âHungry?â
âNo, no, no. I only found out about this after asking about the other laborers.
Can you believe it? She actually picked up a stray dog under the cabin.â
âA stray dog? Since when did we have such a thing on our ship? âA few of his colleagues revealed strange expressions.
â I donât know. I guess he must have snuck onto the ship from somewhere when he was docked at Red Feather Harbor. Oh, thatâs not the point. The point is that a laborer who canât even fill his own stomach wants to buy food for the stray dogs. If heâs not a fool, then what is he? Haha, Iâm dying of laughter!â
Ichiro smacked his lips and drank another mouthful of wine.
âNo, no, no. Iâm not that cruel. I told her that itâs impossible for the restaurant to sell her food, but if she gives me all the money to buy food, I can open a small back door for her and let her go to the kitchen to wash all the dishes, mop the floor, and finally clean up the leftovers. That way, she can also secretly take some leftovers from the kitchen, right?â
âReally, Ichiro? This isnât like you. âEven so, those colleagues actually felt that this was really a favor.
The supervising samurai called Ichiro chuckled maliciously.
âYou guys donât know about this, right? Didnât you notice that the Martial
Secretary is no longer around?â
âEh? Thatâs right, whereâs the Martial Arts Department?â
âOf course, I went to enforce the law impartially. When I was patrolling, I happened to catch a little thief who stole food from the kitchen in the name of working! If he was found out, he would at least be beaten up and fined a lot of money, right? According to my observations, I donât know what the strange man in bandages is doing in the Flame Domain, but he has quite a lot of money on him.â
After Ichiro spoke, the other colleagues finally reacted. They patted his shoulder and gave him a thumbs up.
âYou⊠Ichiro, youâre really vicious. Youâre also too mean. Thereâs such a good thing, but you only call that fellow Wu Si!
âNo, letâs drink. Iâll definitely drink you to death today!
The few of them drank and drank. After a short while, they suddenly realized that something was strange.
âWhatâs going on? Why do I feelâŠWhy is it so quiet?â âEh? Now that you say it, itâs reallyâŠâ
When they looked away from the table and looked aroundâŠ
Pa
The wine glass in her hand fell to the ground. The sound of glass shattering was particularly ear-piercing in the silent space.
âHow⊠Whatâs going on? Why arenât these people moving?â
The Overseers noticed that apart from them, the rest of the people around the restaurant seemed to have been pressed to pause time.
This situation had happened once outside the battlefield of Fire Code City. At that time, the wolf cub had used his authority to pull Harvey, Chris, and the others into the Soul Space.
However, this time was different from the last time. The former was for a conversation, while the latter was forâŠ.
