48 Hours a Day

Marlon was lying on the bed of the buffet yard and had a friendly gorgeous lady fill him with medicine. Before the Breeze was chased by the Skull, he threw away his status as a Nassau black merchant, but the other side ignored him. Then Marlon, the captain, led the sailor on the boat, bravely resisted the other side when he boarded the boat, but because of the power gap between the two sides, they were all put on hold for less than three minutes.

Then there was a punch and kick. Marlon was punched in the stomach by Wilton, fell to the ground, and could no longer hold the knife in his hand. However, the attack did not stop, and he did not know how many feet he had suffered. Until he was dragged to the bottom of the boat, Marlon had time to examine himself and discover that his back had turned blue and purple.

For a while, like the rest of the ship, he thought he was dead, and on his way back, the Skull robbed another merchant ship, and Marlon witnessed for himself how Wilton and his crew treated those poor prisoners and tortured them for fun. Look at Marlon, an old sailor who's been drifting at sea for decades, scared to death, even once he had the idea of suicide.

Until he was later released, there was something incredible going on in front of him.

The first thing Marlon did after confirming that he was safe was to find a tavern for a hard drink, then sway to the Buddhist Home where he most often went, and finally find a long defiant calm between the familiar soft breasts.

The next day he slept until almost noon to open his eyes, and it wasn't long before he saw Karina again.

“Wait, you suspect Jim's in Malcolm? ”

The gorgeous woman had left the room half an hour earlier. Marlon listened to Karina, shaking her hangover and then some sinking head. The gorgeous color was full of surprise, and he was dressed as he walked.

“To be honest, without solid evidence, it would be hard for me to believe this accusation. Jim was a good kid. I knew his neighbors when I recruited him and where I worked before. Everyone said he was a good kid. He worked hard on the boat, never lazy. Although he was sometimes a little boring and didn't understand the jokes some men should understand, it didn't prevent me from putting him on my favorite list. Did I tell you about his sister? ”

“What sister?” Karina asked.

“Jim had a sister, not his parents'. He was only half adopted, two years younger than him. At that time, the family was in good shape. Jim also recognized the words at that time, but the scene was not long. Shortly afterwards, his parents had an accident. There were only two of them left in the family, and the economy began to become strained. Someone suggested that he send that little sister to an orphanage or a monastery, but Jim was categorically opposed to selling everything he could sell at home, and he started working everywhere to barely feed two people, when he was only 14 years old. ”

Marlon was sentimental, but he suddenly stopped here.

“What's the matter? ”

“Speaking of his sister, I did hear recently that she seemed to have a major illness. Jim paid a lot of money to cure her illness, and I asked him before if he needed help, but Jim told me that the debt had been paid off and that he had a distant uncle who sent him money to help him cope with the crisis. ”

“Could this man be Malcolm? ”

“I didn't think about it at the time, and I still didn't really believe Jim would betray us and tell Wilton's crew about the Breeze route.” Marlon shook his head, he was dressed, moved his shoulder, pulled his previous injuries so he couldn't hold his teeth, "did you talk to him about this? ”

“Not yet. I don't want to scare the snake. Now we have no proof. Once he's alert, it won't be easy to grab his horse's feet.” The businesswoman got up and poured a glass of water for the captain of the Breeze. “This is important to us. Although the Wilton gang is dead, if we don't dig up the Ghost Breeze, it will still be dangerous for us to travel next time, and most importantly, Malcolm will know every move we make...”

“Wait, the Wilton guys are dead?” Marlon was surprised to hear that he had slept until now and knew nothing about what had come up on the island this morning, "how could that be possible? You're kidding me, right? ”

“If you hadn't drunk yourself and stuck to unleashing your male instincts, you would have known more, Uncle Marlon, and now... you might be the last person on the island to hear about it. ”

“Ha, that's the best thing I've heard in a while.” The captain of the Breeze pretended not to hear the sarcasm of the businesswoman and smelled the joy on her face. "On my way back, I cursed the bastards, cursed them all swallowed up by the sea, even on my old life, but now it's a good ending. How did they die? Who did it, what method, how many more survivors? To be honest, I still can't believe Wilton has over 200 people on his hands. They're good hands. How did he die under their protection? ”

“You can go out and ask yourself about this later.” Karina interrupted Marlon. "Speaking of which, Jim, is there anything else you'd like to add? ”

“Let's see... that's pretty much it, he's been a good employee, a good brother, a good neighbor for the whole time I've known him, and I personally don't think that kid was a spy. ”

“On the last point, I'm sure we'll figure it out. ”

“What are you going to do, send someone to spy on him?” Marlon took the glass of water and rinsed his mouth, sort of finishing the morning wash.

“No, I intend to give him full freedom.” Karina said.

“Hmm?”

“I just pretended to inadvertently reveal a message to Jim that two powerful pirate ships were considering leaving the Black Business Coalition and working with us if he was a mole would tell Malcolm. ”

“And then what? ”

“Malcolm will not sit idly by this time, the most intolerable thing he cannot tolerate is that other powerful pirates are on our side, so he will definitely stop this before it happens, he will personally go to the captains of the two boats to persuade them, and all we have to do is keep an eye on his actions for a while, and once he meets the captains of the two boats, we can catch Jim. ”
