"Monsieur Dantès, we have something urgent to do and ask Alonzo Cato, the boatswain on the ship, to come over immediately."
Umberto said calmly to the captain.
Captain Dantès sensed that something was wrong in the atmosphere, couldn't help but glance at Vlad who was tied up with ropes, turned around and left in a hurry.
Not long after, Captain Dantès returned to the deck, looking embarrassed.
"I'm sorry, Arangzo is not on the boat. He may have gone to the pier to drink and gamble."
"Drinking and gambling?" Lisa said with a sneer at the corner of her lips, "After buying a murderer and killing someone, you still have leisure time and are free and happy. This Mr. Alonzo's psychological quality is really not very good."
Captain Dantès forced a smile and quickly sent the sailors to look for Alonzo on the dock.
"You can't find it for sure." Lisa lowered her voice and whispered in Musk's ear, "It's just superficial."
Musk glanced at her and said nothing.
Everyone waited on the boat for more than half an hour. The sailors sent by Captain Dantès to look for him came back one after another, but no trace of Alonzo was found.
The night is getting darker and the freighter is about to pull anchor and set sail, but Arangzo has not returned yet.
By this point, it's become obvious.
"I'm sorry, we can't contact Alonzo...that bastard! Either he ran away to fool around with women, or he had an accident and died in some ditch." Captain Dantès said bitterly.
say.
"Ahem! Mr. Captain, is there a possibility, and I'm just saying it's possible, that Alonzo got bad news and ran away early?" Lisa asked nonchalantly.
Captain Dantès was stunned for a moment and replied hesitantly: "I don't know about that... In fact, I don't know what Alonzo has committed."
"It's like this, Mr. Captain, today Paul, Lisa, and I were assassinated while wandering on the beach..."
Musk briefly told the story of the attack.
After Captain Dantès heard what he said, he said with an apologetic face: "I'm so sorry, Mr. Justice, Alonzo actually did such a thing behind my back, I am also responsible, it's all because I don't know people well!
"
"Monsieur Dantès, how can I blame you?" Claire comforted the captain, "Now we urgently need to find out who was behind the bribery of Alain Zuogu to commit murder."
"Hey! Speaking of the mastermind behind the scenes, don't you think the most suspicious person is Adam Rulf?" Paul analyzed seriously, "As the dueling agent of Queen Aquamarine, Musk can be said to be Adam Rulf.
Husband’s potential mortal enemy, if there was a chance to assassinate Musk before he arrived at Pattus, I wouldn’t have to risk my life. If I were Adam Rulf, I would do the same thing!”
"Why didn't I realize before that you are quite despicable!" Musk glared at Paul, "Do you think everyone else is as ungrateful as you?"
"No...Adam Rulf is not a good person to begin with, so it's not surprising that he would do something like this, right? This is human nature!" Paul argued angrily.
Lisa did not participate in the discussion. It was not until Captain Dantès left that she lowered her voice and said seriously:
"The captain is lying. He secretly let Alonzo go."
Except for Umberto, who was expressionless, everyone else couldn't help but look shocked when they heard Lisa's assertion.
"Lisa...you can't be mistaken, right?"
As soon as Claire said these words, she knew that she had made a fool of herself.
Lisa is the "arbiter" and is good at "distinguishing lies" and "detecting thoughts". She has absolute certainty and is responsible for the judgments she makes.
Umberto sighed and looked back at Musk: "I'm going to go find Dantès and force him to tell the truth?"
Musk hesitated for a moment, shook his head and said: "Forget it, brother Umberto, we still need to take this ship to Hailan. It's not appropriate to make the matter a big deal for the time being."
Umberto took a deep look at him and nodded: "It is no longer safe on the ship. Please be more careful on the next voyage."
After the warning, Umberto took Claire and left.
"Brother Musk, what did you mean by what you just said?"
Paul looked unhappy.
"The man behind the killer is obviously Adam Rulf. The only doubt is whether Captain Dantès is involved."
"I tend to think that the captain was not involved in this matter and just secretly let go of the boatswain who had received illegal money out of personal friendship. In this case, what is the point of holding on to the captain?"
"What's more, Captain Dantès has been a friend of brother Umberto for many years. I don't want to embarrass him."
"Gene Era"
Musk explained with complicated emotions.
Paul shook his head when he heard this, disapproving of his forbearing and giving in attitude, and secretly made up his mind to pursue this matter to the end!
The game cutscene ended, and seven days later, the freighter "Good Luck" arrived at its destination—Patus, the capital of the Aquamarine Kingdom, an ancient coastal city.
Before landing, Paul specifically asked Captain Dantès about the upcoming itinerary of the freighter "Good Luck".
"Mr. Captain, when does your ship plan to return?"
"Oh...if nothing else happens, I will return to China early next month."
"Great! By then, Brother Musk must have completed Her Majesty the Queen's commission and defeated Adam Rulf in the duel. Can we take your boat home by then?" Paul looked expectantly.
Holding the captain.
Captain Dantès was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "Of course that's no problem."
Paul nodded with satisfaction, signed a check generously, and handed it to Captain Dantès, saying it was a tip for all the sailors on the ship to thank them for their thoughtful service along the way.
"You are so generous. My lord, on behalf of all the sailors on the ship, I would like to thank you for your reward." Captain Dantès took off his hat and saluted respectfully.
Gao Fei saw Paul getting close to the captain from the side, and he felt vaguely that this kid had no good intentions and must have a bad idea in his heart.
Lisa also didn't understand Paul's overly generous behavior. After getting off the boat, she found a secluded place and asked him: "Captain Dantès let go of the boatswain who participated in the assassination of Musk. How dare you take his boat?"
You really are not afraid of death!"
"Hey! Miss Colt, to tell you the truth, I have read a lot of reasoning and done some research on criminal psychology. How could I not know that Captain Dantès was suspicious? The reason why I got close to him was to paralyze him and make him
He relaxed his guard against me so that he could conduct an in-depth investigation."
Paul crossed his arms across his chest, wishing he had a pipe in his mouth and looked like a wise detective.
