The sunlight, the dazzling sunlight appeared in front of Charles again. He stood on the deck and looked at his island.
Hope Island is still as lively as ever. There is an endless stream of fishing boats and cargo ships at the dock, and the boats are of different styles.
Steamships account for the majority, and the other ships are of various strange types, including sailboats, but no one knows what drives them, as there is not much wind in the sea.
The huge ship docked, and Charles walked to the side of the sunlight with a hesitant look on his face.
He licked forward with his tongue and found that the tooth that had been sawed off had grown back.
Even teeth can grow back, which proves that Charles' recovery ability has exceeded that of ordinary humans. However, this is not a good thing, as normal people do not have such a good recovery ability.
Recently, he always had a desire to drink blood.
"Will I turn into ashes if I touch the sunlight?" Charles thought to himself.
"Mr. Charles, what are you doing?" Lily stood behind and looked up at him.
Seeing that Charles ignored her, Lily pulled at his trouser leg with her little paw, but still no response.
After hesitating for a moment, Charles made up his mind and thrust his index finger forward.
The sun was as warm as ever, Charles' fingers were not on fire, and he was fine.
"It's okay, it's okay." Charles felt relieved and walked straight into the sunshine, feeling the warmth.
"It doesn't matter if the teeth are a little longer, as long as they are not afraid of the sun." Charles felt completely relieved.
Although he looks a bit scary now, Charles doesn't care that much about his appearance.
After walking out of the sunshine, Charles saw a group of crew members already standing at the dock waiting for him, including all the officials of the Governor's Office on Hope Island.
Bandage took a step forward and gave him a questioning look.
Charles walked over and patted him on the shoulder. "It's okay, everything is resolved."
He didn't want to recall what happened in the British Isles.
Charles didn't look at anyone else and walked towards the open car door next to him. He was a little tired and wanted to have a good rest.
Just as he bent down and was about to get in, he saw through the glass several cars driving towards him in the distance, very fast and looking very anxious.
Seeing the white triangle mark on the car, Charles pulled half of his body out of the car again. What are these crazy people rushing to do?
Soon, someone came out of the car and gave the answer. "Governor Charles, have you seen our Pope?"
"What? Your Pope didn't come back?" Charles' voice was full of surprise.
He was really surprised. When he was escaping with Anna, the Pope stood next to the deformed Swan without making any move.
Seeing his calm appearance, Charles thought he could definitely escape. Could it be that this old fox was really left in the British Isles
"Mr. Charles, I am the head of the Hope Island Explorers Association. Can you tell me what happened on the British Isles?"
A man with a top hat and a mustache stepped forward and asked. As if he felt that his contribution was not enough, he added another sentence at the end.
"That's also what the president meant. The latest news we got is that Swan dispatched the 'Lonka'. The association doesn't know anything about what happened afterwards. The ship we sent out never came back. Maybe you are the only one who got out of it."
After scanning their faces, Charles turned and got into the car. "It's not easy to talk at the dock. Come to my Governor's Mansion and I'll tell you everything that happened."
The Governor got in the car and left, but the crowd did not slowly disperse. They were all discussing what had happened to the Governor.
The British Isles were now a major news in the Earthsea world, comparable to the sinking of an island. Everyone was using their gossip talents to speculate enthusiastically about what was going on over there.
West was also eager to try and wanted to come over and express his desire to talk, but he didn't do it because he came to the dock for other things.
"Ding~" The brass pocket watch opened, West checked the time, turned around and ran towards the passenger ship port. "Mother and my brothers and sisters are almost here."
Passenger ships arrived one after another, driving out groups of people like Mianyang. West held up the big sign he brought and kept waving it, with the names of three people written on it.
Even though his arms were getting more and more sore, he had no intention of giving up.
Another boat arrived, and a woman came out with two children carrying a lot of bags. They seemed to be shocked by the unique scenery of Hope Island.
Seeing them, West threw the sign in his hand and rushed up excitedly.
"Mother!! Great! You're finally here!" He hugged the woman tightly excitedly.
Having not seen her son for a long time, Elena opened her mouth to say something, but ended up sobbing.
During this period, she dreamed every night that her son had gone away like his father and would never come back, and she was worried all the time.
But in order to support the family, she didn't dare to vent her anger. When she saw West again, the string in her heart finally relaxed.
Influenced by their mother, West's younger brothers and sisters next to them also hugged their baby and started crying.
"Mother, please don't cry. Look, I'm fine."
With West's comfort, the emotions of the three people gradually stabilized.
Taking the things from his mother, West led them forward.
"Why did you bring the old stools? Didn't I say in the telegram that as long as you come, we can find them on other islands."
"West, is what you said in the telegram true? Are you really working beside the Governor?" Elena asked with red eyes.
"Of course, your son is making a lot of money now." West's voice was full of pride.
"Is it dangerous?"
"There is something dangerous next to the Governor. Look, that thing is called pineapple. You must have never eaten it. I will buy a few for you to try."
From the roadside stall, pineapples cut in half were delivered to the three people.
West's skinny sister took the thing and licked it, and her big eyes lit up immediately. It was sweet with a hint of numbness, and she liked it very much.
"Yeah, it tastes pretty good, right? I heard that this thing was improved with some kind of relic. When the Governor and his men first arrived on this island, this thing wasn't so sweet."
After seeing his sister eat a little bit, she was about to wrap it up in a handkerchief and save it for next time. West felt a pang in his heart.
"Eat it. You don't have to save it for tomorrow. I'll buy you as much as you want."
