48 Hours a Day

Chapter 187: Ceasefire

Tonight's eyes were so drawn to what was happening on the beach that no one noticed the Raven and the Veda just returning to port.

Zhang Heng also saw the fire and crowd on the beach on deck, but he didn't pay much attention to it at first. When the Cold Raven docked, he took Annie and Billy to the pier by boat, but then he noticed the strange location of the Breeze and the two strange sailboats in the harbor.

Zhang Heng realized what might have happened, and before the boat landed, he saw the crew of the bound Breeze, as well as the tragic death of Booker.

Zhang Heng frowned and said a few words to Billy, who nodded his head. As soon as Zhang Heng and Annie disembarked, he drew back the Cold Raven with the other two pirates.

Zhang Heng then stepped ashore on the soft sand, and the crowd saw that he had consciously made way.

Wilton turned around and picked his eyebrows, "I'm sorry, who are you? ”

“Captain Zhang Heng of the Cold Raven. ”

So, Wilton, what does this have to do with you? ”

“Miss Karina is a partner and friend of Cold Crow on the island. ”

“Oh, I see.” Wilton nodded, "and I'm afraid you'll have to look again for a partner, because this Miss Karina has no boat and no one, and she owes me an ass debt, and she's planning to guide us and keep us happy and let me spare her men. ”

Karina could no longer control her anger and slapped Wilton in the face.

The latter reached out and touched the beating place, looking at the businesswoman, Karina, scared by his eyes, took two steps back, but then saw Wilton's face with another smile.

It's just that instead of relieving Karina, the smile created a deep chill in her heart.

Wilton turned around and shook his men, "It seems Miss Karina is not well aware of her situation. ”

Immediately after that, he said, Burke's body was removed from the wooden strip and a second prisoner was dragged over.

Karina's breathing became impatient, and she looked at Zhang Heng with the help, but she didn't know what else the latter could do. Although Zhang Heng had returned, he and Annie were the only two people ashore in the first batch of the Cold Crow, and most of Wilton's crew were on this beach.

There is a wide power gap between the two sides, and there is nothing anyone can do in this situation.

Wilton walked to the second prey with his own knife, during which he also looked at Zhang Heng with a provocative gaze, which was almost what he had expected, but could only remain silent when he saw the scene.

Wilton chose his chest this time, tapping twice with his knife tip to fully appreciate the scared look of the prey before lifting the knife in his hand again.

The next moment, however, there were two sudden gunshots in his ear.

Wilton frowned, “Who the fuck fired the gun? We're here to do business, not to get into trouble. There are still some tough characters in this place. In addition to Honig, there are two guys named Black Prince and Blackbeard, we still have to be polite on his property. ”

And when he finished, he saw a group of his men face to face, and half a mile later someone said, “Captain, it's not our guns, okay… it looks like someone is attacking our boat. ”

Wilton changed his color and looked in the direction of the harbor to see that his flagship Skeleton was being shelled. Although he had left many people on board, he obviously had no idea that he would be attacked. There was no preparation for this. After the first round of shelling on the other side of the ship, they did not even have time to open the gunshot window.

“Return the breeze sign and the cargo on it, release all crew, and I'll stop the attack.” Zhang Heng said.

“Otherwise? ”

“Or I'll sink your flagship.” Zhang Hengfangdao.

Wilton sniffed his gloomy face, "I've been a pirate for so long no one has threatened me. ”

“Congratulations, now.” Zhang Hengjin is the same color, "you can keep hesitating, but I can't guarantee that your boat will still be there in five minutes. ”

“Aren't you afraid to violate the island's rules by attacking ships parked in ports, which is forbidden in any city? ”

“You're not a pirate on the island, so I don't seem to have a problem with that either. ”

Wilton's fingers banging on the back of the knife, getting faster and faster, seemed to be thinking about something.

“By the way, if you expect to delay and let another boat clamp, it would be better for you to get rid of that idea, because I can assure you that your other boat won't move at all. ”

Wilton was not convinced, but when he saw the Veda, which was parked not far away, and the thick, numb cannon tube above him, he knew that he was not talking, and that his other boat would dare not move again.

Wilton looked into Zhang Heng's eyes and the fierce light flashed in his eyes, "Are you sure you want to fight me? ”

“What about you?” Zhang Heng's eyes did not hide, and he kept a direct eye on Wilton, who eventually chose to give in, wave, "let go. ”

Wilton's men cut off the rope from the captives, and two of the Breeze's sailors immediately ran to Karina's side as soon as they were free, leaving a middle-aged man walking limply to the former dead Burke, holding the latter's body and crying.

He was Brooke's uncle and the man who took Brooke aboard the ship, and he took his nephew to a dead end.

Wilton looked toward Zhang Heng, who was indifferent.

Wilton bit his teeth, "Tell the brothers on the boat to let the rest of them go and give them back the boat and the cargo.” Then he said to Zhang Hengdao, "Are you satisfied? ”

Zhang Heng finally made a move this time. He raised his hand and made a gesture. Billy was immediately notified by a watcher with a telescope on the Cold Crow.

Half a minute later, the Cold Raven stopped attacking, but by that time the Skull had become scarred and had almost lost its ability to fight back, even though it had not sunk.

The Cold Raven's firepower is far beyond that of a regular pirate ship, whose artillery is made up of warships, and at such close proximity, virtually no artillery is missed.

Wilton looked blue after learning about the damage to the Skull, but this time he didn't say anything. He just took a deep look at Zhang Heng and rushed back to the boat.

Annie frowned, "Are we really just gonna let them go? This guy doesn't look like some kind of fuel-efficient light. ”

“After all, there are so many of them ashore, we really want to push him, he will do it to us.” Zhang Hengton, “but you're right, when he fixes the boat, he'll definitely come back for revenge, so tonight we have to solve this problem and tell the crew to be ready for battle. ”
