Zhang Heng and Annie found the reason for the storm, but probably only the ancient god named Betty knew what happened on the Clark ship.
Zhang Heng didn't know if it was because he was on land now. The other party didn't come to him after he got the shell, but Zhang Heng didn't take it lightly. He returned to the Jackdaw at the first time and used The knife chipped off the ancient Celtic name on the top of the mast, and later found the trade woman, and asked her to send someone to the colony to find the tule tree.
According to the bartender lady, the wooden box made of the latter can isolate supernatural power. It just so happens that this kind of tree grows in Oaxaca, Mexico. If Zhang Heng remembers correctly, it should be a Spanish colony now.
If everything goes well, he will almost be able to get the wooden box of the tule tree when he comes back from the sea next time. Unfortunately, this thing is not a game item, otherwise Zhang Heng really wants to bring a pack of dungeons directly, so that he doesn’t have to worry about game items in the future. Storage problem.
Before that, in order to prevent that ancient god named Betty from seducing other people, Zhang Heng could only temporarily take this thing on himself.
On the other side, Karina's investigation of the inner ghost finally came to the result.
The staff she sent out to monitor reported to her that Malcolm had just left the manor in a low-key carriage to visit Captain Babur. This was also one of the false information given by the businesswoman, but Malcolm was obviously very vigilant. Ten minutes later, he left Babur's residence, and instead of looking for the next person on the list, he went to visit an irrelevant person, trying to confuse his sight in this way.
However, Karina was basically able to determine the target, and she found Ma Long, who, for the first time, did not fool around in the brothel at this time, but was rarely prepared, and took out the saber she had not used for a long time from the box.
When he also took out the short musket at the bottom of the box, the businesswoman took a deep breath and stretched out her hand.
Ma Long handed over the short musket in his hand, "Are you sure it's just the two of us, and I don't need to send a few more people on board?"
The businesswoman filled the barrel with gunpowder and bullets and said, "If you're right, he did it for his own sister. I don't want everyone to know about it. When we finish asking what we want to ask, we can directly Just let him go, and Jim has been engaged in bookkeeping work, and he doesn't have much force, the two of us should be enough."
Ma Long nodded, "This is the best. Don't worry, I'm not that old yet. I'm confident that I won't lose to anyone in a heads-up."
"If your stomach is a little smaller, this sentence will be more convincing." Karina completed the filling and inserted the short musket behind her back. No abnormalities can be seen from the front.
She asked Malone, "How do I look now?"
"It's as calm as going for a walk in the park." The latter praised.
"Let's go, if it's too late, maybe Malcolm should send someone to inform." Karina walked downstairs first.
The two of them didn't waste any time after getting the news, and rushed directly to Jim's location. The latter was arranged by the businesswoman to inspect the new warehouse location today.
As the situation on the island gradually opened up, the small warehouse in the original second-hand goods trading place was not enough. Karina was also looking for a new warehouse location during this time, using this as an excuse to transfer Jim alone. The latter raised little doubt.
That place is not too far from the pier. There are two buildings, one in front and one in the back. In addition, there is a large open space, which is very suitable for warehouses.
But when they got there, Malone and Karina's expressions changed.
Karina saw a pool of fresh blood on the open space between the two buildings, and then a series of footprints staggered towards the small building behind.
"Oops, did Malcolm's people arrive first?" Malone said while pulling out the saber from his waist, and ran towards the building behind.
He broke open the door at the first moment, but there was no one inside, and there were no footprints on the dusty ground.
Ma Long's eyelids twitched, and for some reason an ominous premonition suddenly appeared in his heart.
He turned around again, and saw Karina behind him holding a short musket and pointing the muzzle at him.
Ma Long's smile was a little forced, "What does this mean?"
"What do you say?" The businesswoman's voice sounded a bit sad, "Uncle Ma Long, you have known my father for more than 20 years, have you been there since I was a child, you are like a family member to me, I never thought that one day you would betray me."
"What are you talking about, didn't Jim leak the news?" Malone said while moving forward a small step, but then Karina's finger was firmly on the trigger, making Malone Had to stop.
"The name I gave to Jim is different from the name I gave to you, or it should be said that the name I gave to everyone who might leak the news is different. I just didn't expect that the last person would be you."
Ma Long raised his eyebrows, "You plan on me?"
"I just... tried my best to consider all possibilities. This is what you taught me before, Uncle Marlon."
"Should I be relieved? You have grown up so fast during this time, no wonder even Malcolm is starting to worry about this. Even the father standing here may not recognize you anymore." Ma Long sighed .
As soon as he finished speaking, several people came out from the back of the small building, including Jim with a blank face, four sailors on the Jackdaw, and an unknown guy whose hands were tied. He was Mal The killer sent by Kom originally planned to kill Jim, and pretended to be a murderer. In this way, Jim's identity as the ghost was confirmed, and no one would doubt Malone, but in the end he was caught by the man who had been waiting here for a long time. The sailors of the Jackdaw were intercepted.
"I have many questions to ask you, but the most important one is, does my father's imprisonment have anything to do with you, Uncle Marlon?"
Malone shook his head when he heard the words, "If Fagan is still there, I will never betray him anyway. Malcolm's people found me after I went to the island with you, and I fell into a trap when I was having fun in the casino. Lost a lot of money, a guy came to me and offered to pay what I owed, and even promised to pay me an extra sum, but only if I would pass on information to him when necessary, and I regretted it It was too late, it was not my intention, and I thought like everyone else that you would not be on the island long, so I saw no reason to refuse the offer."
