Chapter 200 The Boy Who Can Pick Locks
Chapter 200 The Boy Who Can Pick Locks
"Is there any way to see Isa?"
Gu Chaoxi leaned back in his chair.
Melton wanted Aesop to die, but there was enough explosives in the warehouse where Aesop was.
This sounds quite magical. I wonder if it can blow up this dimension.
Besides, whose explosives did they belong to?
These are like a mystery that lingers in the heads of several people for a while, but there is no answer.
"Melton wanted Aesop to die, so he made him a water ghost. As for bringing Isa here, he wanted to completely cut off Isa's thoughts, right?"
Qin Wei described slowly, at least for now, this was their previous story.
Gu Chaoxi lowered her head. She agreed with what Qin Wei said, but she still had some confusion.
After thinking about it, I decided to go to the basement level over there to take a look.
"I want to go shopping, it shouldn't be a big problem."
She stood up and Pei Yan followed her.
Watching the two people staggering into the restaurant, Zhou Youyou also stood up, but was stopped by Shen Yao.
"Too many people would easily arouse suspicion."
After all, their identities don't seem to be that close.
However, the characters in Gu Chaoxi and Pei Yan's dimension are cousins, so it makes sense for them to move around together.
The two went down to the basement level and saw some people in the corridor.
Several people dressed in noble clothes were kicking a man lying on the ground. The man was wearing tattered clothes and did not look like a pirate.
"Please let me go, I'm just too hungry, I'm sorry."
He kept apologizing, but the other party didn't treat him kindly in return.
Gu Chaoxi looked over and saw someone sticking his head out of the room where the pirates were drinking, then retreating back.
Obviously he doesn't want to care.
Originally, Gu Chaoxi had no intention of intervening in anything. After all, there was no need to interfere with unrelated characters from other planes.
However, just as she and Pei Yan were about to turn into the nearest room, the person on the ground looked up.
"Ms. Aisley, Mr. Ailor, help me!"
They paused and turned around to look.
The people who were kicking vigorously also stopped and looked at Gu Chaoxi and Pei Yan.
She lowered her eyes: "Do you know me?"
"Hey, are you trying to attract other people's attention on purpose?"
Someone kicked the person on the ground on the back with a sneer. After all, it seemed that Gu Chaoxi didn't know him.
The boy on the ground moved his body, and moved to his knees and prone on the ground.
"Miss Ashley, we have met before. You gave me a piece of bread."
"Oh, I don't have any impression of that."
"It's okay. I will always remember Miss Aisley."
The boy clenched his hands tightly, and when he looked up, he looked at Gu Chaoxi stubbornly.
She pursed her lips and was silent for a moment.
Did this boy come up from the warehouse, or did he hide somewhere on the ship?
"What did he steal?"
Pei Yan looked at the people surrounding the boy.
They looked over: "Beef jerky, and some bread and jam."
It seems that he stole because he was really hungry.
Pei Yan took out a gold coin from his sleeve and handed it over: "Is that enough?"
His eyebrows were indifferent, which made Gu Chaoxi raise an eyebrow. Where did this man get the gold coins?
As soon as those people saw the gold coins, smiles immediately appeared on their faces.
One of them took it and bit it with his teeth, his smile growing even wider.
"Oh, you're lucky, you met a noble person today. Don't be so lucky next time."
As they spoke, the few people walked away and entered a play room.
The boy on the ground got up and looked up at Pei Yan.
"When I have money in the future, I will pay you back."
Seeing him raising his legs to leave, Pei Yan reached out and pulled him back.
"Tell me where you are from."
"I, I sneaked up from the warehouse."
There weren't many people guarding the warehouse, so it was possible to sneak in, but I was the first one to sneak in and steal things.
Pei Yan pursed his lips, still holding his collar.
Under the collar were the eerie exposed white bones. There seemed to be scars on the bones, and they did not look very smooth.
"I haven't seen you in the warehouse."
Gu Chaoxi smiled and motioned Pei Yan to take him to a place with fewer people.
The three of them walked forward for a long time before the noise around them died down a little.
"You'd better tell the truth, otherwise I will hand you over to those people."
"I......"
The boy was really frightened by her and he hugged his arms tremblingly.
"I hid in an empty room and ate and drank in the room."
"You have the key?"
She raised an eyebrow and saw the boy shook his head very seriously.
"No, but I can pick locks. Although the locks here are more complicated, I happen to be good at it."
As he spoke, he raised his chin proudly, completely forgetting that the back of his collar was still in Pei Yan's hand.
"Then if you do me a favor, I'll forgive you, how about that?"
The image of Isa who was locked in the room flashed through Gu Chaoxi's mind, and he had an idea.
A child who can pick locks is sent to them. Wouldn't it be a waste if they don't make good use of it?
When the boy heard that he could let bygones be bygones if he did a favor, he thought about it seriously.
"can."
Thinking that it wouldn't be difficult for a noble like Aisley to help, the boy agreed.
"Then it's settled. After dinner, you wait for me at the corner of the second floor of the room. Got it?"
Gu Chaoxi said this and glanced at Pei Yan.
Wilfors said that they would enter the sea of wealth in three days, which means that there would only be two nights in total.
It would be a good thing for them if they could meet Isa earlier and explore the truth of this plane.
After making an agreement with the boy, Pei Yan gave him another gold coin.
The boy took it and ran away quickly.
"He shouldn't be in any danger, right?"
This child hid secretly on the ship. If he were to be encountered by those nobles with bad tempers, he would be captured and made fun of.
"No, not so many people have time to bully a child."
What's more, most of their attention was on fishing activities and the mysterious sea that would be reached in two days.
But speaking of it, the route has been deviated. How can we deal with these people's high emotions two days later?
But this is not something Gu Chaoxi needs to worry about.
The two of them walked around the underground floor but didn't see anyone special.
However, Alice, who had greeted Pei Yan before, wanted to invite Pei Yan to have a drink together tonight, but was rejected by Pei Yan.
Well, the reason for the refusal was that Gu Chaoxi was not feeling well and he needed to take care of his cousin.
As Ellor's admirer, Alice naturally agreed.
I even wish Miss Ashley a speedy recovery.
