Even Charles, who doesn't pay much attention to current affairs, often hears gossip about the governor. Generally speaking, the new governor is a man but likes men.
Of course this is nothing, it is very normal, but it is a bit too outrageous that she openly married 6 husbands.
Fortunately, apart from his sexual fetish, he paid attention to the administrative management of the coral island and people's livelihood, and the islanders were quite satisfied with this governor.
The glittering golden car drove to the dock and stopped. The Governor did not get out of the car, as if he was waiting for something.
At this moment, rows of police officers in black uniforms came out in droves, numbering nearly a thousand. They quickly evacuated the crowd at the dock.
The laborers who moved goods and the fishmongers were also driven away, and the bustling dock became unusually deserted.
When a ray of light suddenly appeared on the coastline that merged with the darkness, Charles finally knew who he was waiting for.
One, two, three, a total of three steam ships nearly as long as the Titanic, blew their shrill whistles and approached the shore with a sense of oppression.
When Margaret, who was standing by the window, saw the flag with the muskets and cannons crossed on the ship, she was so excited that she couldn't control herself. "Mr. Charles! That's my father's ship! He's here to pick me up! I can go home!!"
Nico got out of the car wearing a furry white cloak. Looking at the approaching giant ship, he clapped his hands with a smile. Nearly ten warships armed to the teeth from the side of the dock raised their guns and headed towards the three giant ships.
The huge steam ship was stuck outside the port and could not get closer. No matter how the sailors on it waved flags, the warship remained indifferent and used the threat of force to prevent it from passing.
"Boom!" A cannon sounded in the distance, and a black shadow rushed directly towards the dock.
When the thing came closer, Charles saw it clearly and his pupils shrank slightly. It was not a cannonball, but a person, a strong man with a big belly and a big mustache.
He was knocked to the ground by the huge impact force and bounced up again, then he stood still as if nothing had happened.
"Sure enough, none of those who can become governors are easy to deal with. They actually use their bodies as cannonballs." Charles was secretly shocked.
"Let's go." Charles, holding the girl beside him, jumped out of the window, jumped directly onto the roof next to him, and rushed towards the dock by stepping on the chimney and tiles.
"Nico! What do you mean!" Daniel angrily looked at the Governor of Coral Island in front of him, completely ignoring the guns raised at him from all sides.
Listening to the roar of Governor Hefang Island, Nico casually trimmed his long nails with a small golden file.
"You came to someone else's island with three Royal Giants, and you ask me what I mean?"
"I said it in the telegram!! I'm here to find my daughter!" His expression was like that of an angry lion.
"Hmph~, six years ago, you said the same thing to little Arthur, and his island became yours."
The police's warning whistle stopped the two men arguing at the same time, and they turned their heads to look in the direction of the sound.
I saw a black-haired young man with a diagonal scar on his face and a young girl, jumping between the roofs like a nimble monkey, and they came in front of the two people in just three or two steps.
Seeing the suspect approaching the Governor, the policemen started drawing their guns.
"Father!" Margaret was so excited that she was about to rush away, but was stopped by Charles.
Looking at the two, Nico blinked his eyes covered with thick eyeshadow. "Put down your guns, I seem to have some impression of this handsome guy."
"Bastard! It was you who kidnapped my daughter!" Governor He Fangdao clenched his fists angrily and was about to rush forward.
"Father, it's not what you think. Mr. Charles is a good man. He saved me."
Faced with her furious father, Margaret hurriedly explained what had happened.
After Daniel finished listening to his daughter's story, he looked at Charles with a cold expression and said, "Since it's a misunderstanding, why don't you let my daughter go!"
Faced with his daughter's thoughtful reminder, his thick lips trembled, and in the end he said nothing. He took out a check from his pocket, wrote it quickly, and threw it hard on the ground.
The check that was falling to the ground quickly flew towards him as Charles raised his hand.
"Father!" Margaret rushed over excitedly and hugged Daniel's belly. The two bodies, one big and one small, looked funny to everyone.
"How is it? Have you suffered any injustice? Tell your father and I will avenge you!" Governor He Fang looked at his daughter nervously.
"No, it's all thanks to Mr. Charles. He saved me."
Daniel glanced at Charles with hostility in his eyes, and took his daughter's hand and walked towards the sea. "Let's go home. Your mother is crying her eyes out because of you."
"Wait, let me talk to Mr. Charles."
"What's the point of talking to that kind of person? Let's go home!" Without waiting for his daughter to speak again, Daniel picked her up and turned around and left.
Under the gaze of everyone, Governor He Fangdao just walked on the water towards the huge ship in the distance.
Lying on her father's shoulder, Margaret looked at the young man on the dock reluctantly. She thought he would say something to her, but he said nothing.
Looking at that calm face, she recalled every detail of that period of time in her mind.
She suddenly wanted to persuade her father to stay for a while longer, but in the end she didn't say anything.
"Mr. Charles! Goodbye! I will send you a telegram!!" Tears rolled down the girl's eyes.
When Daniel heard this, his face turned ugly and he quickened his pace.
"You have a good brain, you were able to blackmail Daniel's money, but your heart is still not dark enough. If I get his daughter, the price will be more than this." Nico leaned towards the young man next to him, and the strong smell of perfume rushed straight into Charles' nostrils.
Charles took two steps back silently. "You are joking, Governor. For a small person like me, 5 million is enough."
5 million just makes him feel uncomfortable. If he really asks for a lot, he may not be able to spend the money even if he gets it.
Nico looked at the young man in front of him with interest, "You were the one who caused such a scene in Sodom? And made the "king" suffer?"
Charles' heart was slightly moved. This Governor was really well-informed. He knew it so quickly. "Yes, I killed the "King"."
But Nico's next sentence made Charles stunned.
"No, you can't kill him. If he were to be killed so easily, he would no longer be the 'king' of Sodom. As far as I know, there is no one in the entire Earthsea who can kill him at this time."
Charles thought back to the body that sank to the bottom of the sea, and was secretly shocked. "He didn't die even after half of his head was cut off? Is that guy a human?"
"You are a good young man. When you have time, come to the center of my island and we can get to know each other better." Nico said and turned to walk towards the golden car.
Charles rejected this option directly in his mind. He didn't want to be this guy's seventh husband.
Looking at the check for 5 million in his hand, Charles breathed a sigh of relief. The matter had come to an end. With these responses, he would not have to worry about funds for some time to come.
Charles put the check in his pocket, looked around, and said to a white mouse in the crowd, "Lily, call all the crew members over. The vacation is over and it's time to go out to sea."
