Chapter 24 Dinner in the Captain’s Room
Because the experienced Leo grandfather judged that the Garriott family’s iron ore was legally obtained, Garriott The remaining members of the family have lost their use value and cannot be put in the eyes of the enemy at all.
And even if they belonged to the Tulip Alliance, the nobles of the Kingdom of Ilya did not have that energy, and they hunted for themselves in the kingdom of Pharetis, which was vaguely the strongest comprehensive strength in the alliance.
Therefore, after Alwin and old steward Leo came to the small town of Leopold in Phalatis, they did not change their names except to deal with some things that were related to their original aristocratic status.
From ten to fifteen years old, the stable life of these five years also proved that the name Alwin Garriott did not bring him any trouble.
Probably aware that his state is easy to be misunderstood, Geer stared into Alwin black’s eyes, sighing as if reminiscing:
“Probably no one ever told you, You’ll look more like your mother when you grow up!”
If you don’t have a name and a family crest, even if you see Alwin outside, Gehr won’t have any associations, after all having the same given name and There are many family names and many people who look alike. But at this moment, he looked more and more like him, and found too many traces of friends and couples on Alwin’s face.
“What did you say?”
Seeing Alwin stunned for a while, he didn’t react at all. Geer, who was not good at expressing his feelings, stopped talking nonsense.
“Look at the sword!”
A white light exploded in the bedroom, and Geer suddenly drew out his sword, his tall and sturdy body gliding across the water like a small boat, with a long sword in his hand. Pierce Alwin’s left shoulder.
[Sword Pose·Floating Boat]
The sword technique that penetrates deep into the bone marrow instinctively makes Alwin slide back on his own when his mind is not in the right place.
[Sword Style·Floating Boat]
The same move did not carry the slightest fireworks, and a small boat drifted with the current, gently dodging the blow. When he retreated to the door, he had risen lightly and exchanged positions with Geer, but the distance between the two had not changed at all.
The corner of Geer’s mouth smiled, and the last trace of uncertainty in his heart after this sword also quietly dissipated.
The names can be the same, the appearances can be similar, and even the aristocratic coat of arms can be counterfeited, but this White Sail Sword Technique, which has reached the proficient level in the bone marrow, is the most powerful proof.
He is the son of old friend Furman and his nephew Alwin Garriott!
In contrast, Alwin looked surprised, and the familiar sword move evoked the memory that had settled deep in his heart.
“You are”
Five years may seem like a cosmetic change for a growing teenager, but for an adult like Geer, Said it didn’t change much.
Even if the distance between the two countries was no obstacle to a naval captain, a friend of Alwin father Furman Garriott, Garriott visited the Garriott family estate at least once a year.
In fact, Alwin had seen Gore more than once. And the last time was five years ago, at Furman’s funeral, shortly after the night of blood and fire.
So even though Alwin is still very young and Geer doesn’t stay for long each time, Alwin still has some impression of Geer Uncle, who always brings himself gifts.
Although he was far more impressed by the gift than he was himself, what could Alwin, who was still a real child, insist on having not awakened the memory of his past life at that time?
Under Geer’s expectant gaze, Alwin finally connected the inexplicable sense of familiarity, and slowly spit out the words he expected to hear: “Ger Uncle!”
“pa !” Geer clapped his hands excitedly, almost jumping up in joy.
“Wait a minute, tell me, is Katie’s sea star-shaped black spot on her left ass, or her right ass?”
I’m a little confused now Alwin was a little confused about the situation. He thoughtfully chose a life path to join the army, and happened to join the third fleet closest to his home. After recruit training, he was assigned personnel, and he happened to be assigned to the battleship of his old friend?
Alwin subconsciously wanted to struggle a little more, caught in the mysterious spider web called fate.
didn’t expect Geer to jump directly to his side, a pair of strong arms fiercely embraced him, patted his shoulder hard, and said with some amusing: “Katie is a pure black little boy. Mare, your eight-year-old birthday present, the black starfish-like spots may also be on her cute little forehead.”
“Welcome home! Little Alwin!”
When the two of them sat face to face at the table in the captain’s room, and the table was gradually filled with all kinds of delicacies that Gert had ordered the sailors to pack on the shore, Alwin’s head was still a little dizzy.
The last time I dined in the captain’s room was with Captain Joseph on the Yellow Hull, but Alwin at this time was far less free and easy than the last time. It may be due to sudden changes, it may be due to the relationship between the superiors and subordinates of the two parties, or it may be due to a sudden change in the relationship.
Not quite used to the enthusiasm of the Uncle, Alwin felt that he needed a period of adjustment. Some of them tugged their collars in an unethical manner and drank the glass of sweet wine in front of them.
But because I have never drank alcoholic beverages in my life, I couldn’t help coughing twice.
“cough cough”
Unexpectedly, he successfully found his friend’s son, which makes Geer in a good mood. Maybe he was the only one who received news of his son’s birth at sea back then can be comparable. Now that he loves the house and Wuxia, how to see how Alwin likes it, he doesn’t care about his little rudeness.
“By the way, little Alwin, I have received news that robbers have breached and occupied the town of Blackrock, because of the task delay for a few days.
When I arrive, I will take over.
The manager of the Wright Count’s house in the town said that all of you have been confirmed dead and your bodies have been restrained. What the hell is going on here, Anita and Leo steward?”
Re-alwin for Alwin After pouring a glass of wine, Geer was very concerned about what happened that year.
“Oh, did they say that to the outside world?” A sneer appeared on Alwin’s young face.
When the robbers attacked the town that night, Leo grandfather was besieged by two official Knights of the same level. Even if he finally escaped with Alwin, he was still severely and irreversibly injured.
I know with my ass, how can there be a Knight-level powerhouse in an ordinary robber? And two at a time?
Now it seems that Wright count, who finally got the benefit of the huge iron ore mine in Black Stone Town, has a serious suspicion. If he hadn’t forged the bones of his sister and brother, it might have been an unwitting third party, but now it seems that he has a high probability of being the mastermind behind it, and he made no secret of it!
What kind of robbery is just a self-directed trick!
These things and my own speculations have nothing to hide, how Alwin will be separated from elder sister Anita a little bit, settle in Leopold, Leo grandfather will soon die of serious injuries, etc. Tell it to Gal.
What Alwin didn’t know was that old steward actually knew that Gor was serving in the Phalatis navy, and that even Furman’s correspondence with Gor was basically handled by Leo. But having lost the Eldest Young Lady, coupled with the sudden change, he couldn’t trust anyone.
After all, not many people know about the situation of rich iron ore, and not many people can be unmoved by the value of several millions Golden Lion. Even Furman’s best friends can’t completely rule out betrayal. probability .
At that time, the father and the two were not desperate, and Leo would rather be cautious than regret his life.
But unlike the cautious old steward, Alwin has a data-driven vision that can detect breathing, heartbeat, subtle eye changes and mood changes, much better than a lie detector. Combined with the portrait of father Furman hanging on the wall next to him, Alwin is pretty sure that Geer Uncle can be trusted.
After all, even if he is a vicious wicked person, unless he is born perverted, it is impossible to hang the portrait of the victim in front of him all day long.
“I’m so sorry, child!” Although Alwin casually, Gal could imagine the crisis and danger of the situation.
As for why Leo Steward, who clearly knew his address and served in the fleet, didn’t come to him directly, he seemed to have a tacit understanding, and Geer did not ask. Fear of implicated yourself, or caution in times of distress, are all things of the past, and everything is no longer important.
“I’ll find a way to find Anita. Anita is a real young genius. The last time I saw her, she was almost at the peak of her apprenticeship knight, and she’ll be fine.”
“Well, it will be fine.”
The two men are not the talkative type, so the atmosphere was a little quiet for a while.
ka ka
Silently only the sound of the knife and fork sliding gently on the plate.
“Come on, have a drink!” Geer never comforted people. He was stationed in the sea all year round, and he didn’t even spend much time with his son, let alone how to deal with juniors like Alwin. Get along, and now only this way.
Alwin smiled, raised his wine glass, and touched Gerr.
It’s been so long, Alwin has long since stopped dwelling on the past, and there is hope in looking forward. The enemy is there, and Alwin won’t be stupid enough to strike a stone with an egg.
But he is convinced that Anita must be somewhere on the world, waiting to be reunited with him.
You’ve got off to a great start in your naval career, now all you have to do is get stronger! Keep getting stronger!
Drinking the wine in the glass, Geer looked at Alwin and hesitantly said: “Alwin, what are your plans for the future?”
“What? On the first day of the navy’s boarding, will the captain drive me off the ship?” After the beginning of reminiscing about the past together, the uncle and nephew have become familiar with each other, and Alwin made a small joke.
“Hahaha, you kid! Sure enough, you and Furman of common origins are so bold, the recruits dare to talk to their captains like this on the first day!”
Obviously Such a way of speaking made Geer more at ease. In addition to being the son of an old friend, he also appreciated Alwin himself. It’s not the regular Army Knights and Musketeers. As a navy, you have to have such audacious courage and adaptability.
“Don’t want to be an explorer anymore?” Gehr said jokingly.
Every Garriott is a brave explorer, and it’s even written into the family motto, Garriott knows it.
“Let’s do the navy first!” Alwin said with a chuckle.
