48 Hours a Day

Chapter 217: Patience

“Captain Zhang Heng, what does this mean?” Jarvis stared at his gunpoint, closing his smile on his face and revealing his confusion, and several other captains beside him were astonished at the time.

As a result, Zhang Heng's next sentence caused another more violent wind wave.

“We have a fleet of navy and pirate hunters following us on this voyage, and they are ready to attack us tonight, and that fleet is coming to us as we speak, and in fact, they may appear before us at any moment now. ”

“How is that possible?” Black Prince Sam frowned, "If someone followed us for so many days, we wouldn't have noticed at all unless...”

“Unless someone betrays us and leaks our route to someone else, those people can hang far behind.” Brooke laughed coldly, "No wonder my boat was attacked before, so you've gone to the nobles, how's it feel to lick their asses, Jarvis? ”

Jarvis was an old pirate who spanned the ocean for years and nodded at Brooke, “I can understand your anger. You've always suspected that I had something to do with this, so when someone picked on me, they would hook up immediately. Good thing there are other sensible people here. ”

Without waiting for Brooke to answer, Jarvis turned his attention to Zhang Heng again, politely, “Captain Zhang Heng is making a very harsh accusation against me right now, so I wonder if you have any evidence to prove what you said, how do we know that you are not the one who betrayed others to bring the fleet, or if you want to trick us into leaving and then swallowing the gold yourself?” After that, he stalled.

Jarvis' words sounded reasonable and were endorsed by the vast majority of the captains present, especially the last sentence, which directly turned the spearhead on Zhang Heng, and even Brooke's story could not help but shake.

Compared to Zhang Heng and Jarvis, the latter is an elderly man in Nassau, the opposite Zhang Heng rose on the island for too short a time. This is the first time that everyone has cooperated in the strict sense of the term. Truly speaking, trust them or prefer to believe the latter. No one can guarantee that Zhang Heng is not lying now, using the fleet as an excuse to fool them out of here, and then steal them back to take away the gold.

This is Jarvis' most powerful place, the contact with the navy fleet, what he thought he had done, but eventually Zhang Heng knew that he wanted to go, the only possibility was that the people he had arranged to guard the boat in the woods were caught, but those people and he were all on the same boat, certainly would not admit such a thing, nor would they rule out the possibility that they would reveal the truth under the threat of death.

But even if it didn't happen with the knife shelf around his neck, people would admit it, so it's hard to tell how credible their claims actually are, when Jarvis stirred up the water, and although he didn't exfoliate his suspicions, he could successfully delay it until the fleet arrived.

But he also had to admit that Zhang Heng's accusations did cause him a lot of trouble. His original plan was to pretend to resist with the people on the beach when the Navy arrived, but then the joint opposite hit Sam and others hard in the back, but now it looks like the plan is soup.

With Zhang Heng's reminder that Sam and others would definitely take precautions against him, he had to consider how to defend himself when the fleet arrived, but in any case, he had at least survived the current crisis.

After that, he looked proudly at Zhang Heng.

Indeed, after a moment of silence, Black Prince Sam said, "We need to investigate this first, so that, since everyone believes me, I can arrange someone to monitor the movement of the harbor...”

His words were interrupted by Zhang Heng before he finished. “You misunderstood me. I am not accusing Captain Jarvis. I am merely telling you this news, whether you believe me or not, that people are leaving. ”

“Are you leaving? Now?" Brooke was surprised. "What about the gold underwater? Anyway, do you have anybody else who can sail now? ”

His voice had just fallen to see Annie and Diffrena and others coming out of the woods, the red-haired maiden holding a bleeding dagger, and Harry being turned back by a few strong sailors, all the way here.

And Ramsey on the other side fought hard to double the loot in the future, and in the shortest possible time, he gathered most of the sailors on the Cold Crow, where a bunch of drunkards were laughing and yelling and sending money.

“Keep the gold.” Zhang Hengdao then put the gun over Jarvis' forehead, "Sorry, Captain Jarvis, let your men put away their weapons, as long as my men get on board safely, I will naturally put you back. ”

Jarvis had no idea that Zhang Heng was so resolute that he had no intention of reasoning with him at all. Technically, his men on the beach are not too hard to lose right now. If he really tore his face off, he could leave the crowd of the Cold Raven ready to go. Of course, even if he completely sat down as a traitor, several other pirate ships would join the fight.

Jarvis was not necessarily willing to pay such a casualty price, but Zhang Heng did not want to gamble with this possibility. It was Zhang Heng's plan to control Jarvis and keep his people from doing so.

More than an hour had passed since Harry had seen the small boat leave, the situation had become very serious. Zhang Heng had spent almost fifteen minutes on the beach. He now did not want to stay any longer than a second. He had seen Annie wait for everyone to come back, and he had asked Divrena organizers to start transporting people to the Cold Crow.

The ferry boat can hold about a dozen people at a time, and it takes at least seven or eight minutes to get back and forth, so it takes at least half an hour to get everyone on board.

This time is unacceptable to Zhang Heng, but at this time his eyes swept to the other ferry of the Warrior, to Jarvis, "Lend me your boat. ”

Without waiting for Jarvis to answer Zhang Heng, Annie and others went to fetch the boat. However, immediately after that, a group of warrior crew stopped in front of the red-haired girl. In the face of the enemy Annie more than times the number, she did not retreat and drew the knife directly.

Faster than her, however, was Zhang Heng, who moved the gun down and pulled the trigger without hesitation. Jarvis made a scream and was shot straight out of a blood hole in the foot.

At that time, Zhang Heng had taken the second short gun from a crew member and continued to hold it on the forehead of the latter.

“Don't challenge my patience. ”
