Chapter 31
The soup was so delicious that it was very delicious.
…
"It's delicious! This soup is just like water, but it tastes very rich."
Lin Qi took a sip of the soup that Zhepu made carefully, and then took a bite of seafood fried rice.
As we all know, Sanji's cooking skills were taught by Zhepu.
Rounding off.
He also ate the food that the sea fans wanted to eat the most.
Tina's little mouth was full, and her big eyes narrowed into a crescent shape of happiness.
Zhepu was still very happy to hear someone praise the soup he made.
Of course, it would be better if the person who praised him was not a navy.
"I like these dishes very much. Can you tell the chef on the ship how to make them?"
"No problem."
After eating and drinking, Lynch began to drive people away.
"You're not leaving yet, do you want to stay for dinner?"
"Thank you."
Zep swore that he had learned a lot today. There really is a navy that doesn't catch pirates and lets them go.
It's simply outrageous. It's outrageous to the extreme.
It can be called a breath of fresh air in the navy.
"Did you really let them go?"
Smoker looked at the pirate ship that was getting farther and farther away, as if he had just met Lynch for the first time.
"What else?"
"I thought you would kill them."
"That's too cruel. I'm very kind, okay?"
"You're the only one who's kind? Haha." Smoker looked at him with contempt.
"Will you send me to Rogue Town first?"
"No. Tina hasn't been home for many years, so send her back to see her family first."
Smoker: "..."
He doesn't want to stay on the ship and eat dog food.
"By the way, Cocosia Village is not far from Tina's home, let's go there first."
Lin Qi went to Cocosia Village not for Nami, but for her mother, Bellemel.
According to the time, Bellemel should have just retired from the navy for only one or two years.
Before retiring from the navy, Bellemel was no longer a grassroots soldier, and had fought pirates in the East China Sea for many years.
Therefore, she has a clear understanding of the environment of the entire East China Sea.
It is precisely because she has become a civilian that Lin Qi can ask her some sensitive questions with confidence.
About the relationship between the East China Sea Kingdom.
"Oh, by the way, please help me keep an eye on someone in the East China Sea."
"Who."
"Kro."
"What do you want to see him for?"
"Do you know what is the most precious thing in the new era?"
"What thing."
"Talent!"
"I like him, so remember to keep an eye on him for me."
Kro, it is said that he is the second most intelligent person among pirates.
...
Another month passed.
While Lin Qi ordered the warship to search for pirates, he rushed to the destination.
During this period, more than 60 pirate groups were defeated.
Many people with special abilities were captured one after another, including those captured in the Upside-down Mountain.
There were a terrifying number of people with special abilities locked up on the ship, up to 50.
50 people with special abilities, this wave of military merits made Lin Qi a lot of money.
Cocosia Village.
This remote town in the East China Sea, all residents make a living by selling oranges, and live a difficult life struggling to make ends meet.
When the residents of the town saw the navy coming, they were not excited, but cast vigilant eyes as if they were looking at the plague god.
It turned out that the navy rarely came to this remote town.
Every time they saw the navy, it was always bad news.
Either catching pirates or chasing bounty criminals, they repeatedly caused considerable losses to the village.
"Navy, what are you doing this time?"
The man with the windmill on his head walked out and Lynch negotiated vigilantly.
"You may have misunderstood the uncle, look." Lynch pointed to his righteous cloak and said:
"I am a colonel from the Navy Headquarters. I came to the East China Sea just to deliver a letter. I heard that your oranges are delicious this time. I want to buy all of them and bring them back to my friends to taste."
"Not the Navy of the East China Sea?"
Kenji's eyes quickly switched between Lynch and the soldiers behind him.
The spirit of the group of soldiers in front of him was different from the Navy he had seen before.
Is he really not from the East China Sea?
Kenji was shocked when he saw that the other party even had three gems inlaid on his knife.
The other party seems to be a rich man.
Some villagers in the village have not opened their shops for several months, especially Bellumel's family, who have run out of food.
The relief food is only enough for two children, and Bellumel can only live on oranges every day.
If I miss this big order because of me, they will probably blame me...
"Are you really here to buy oranges?"
At this time, Kensuke had completely believed the other party. If they really wanted to catch the bounty criminal, the bounty criminal would have run away long ago.
"Otherwise."
...
Five minutes later.
"Hahahaha, young people are really amazing. They are so young and have already become colonels of the Navy Headquarters."
"Alas, it's a pity that my family has no daughter, otherwise I would definitely marry a young hero like you."
A group of respected elders in the village stood in front of Lynch with a smile.
"I want all the oranges in the village, remember, all."
Lynch asked his men to bring a box of gold coins.
"In addition, I want to see the person in charge of each orange tree."
"No problem, no problem, no problem."
The eyes of several people seemed to be shining, staring at a box of treasures.
After killing so many pirates, Lynch is now a rich man, and this little money is just a drop in the bucket.
Bellemel does not live in the village, but in a hidden corner outside the village.
Kensuke is famous for protecting Bellemel's family.
Plus, Bellemel was a deserter.
If I dare to wear this outfit and say I want to see Bellemel, it will probably take a lot of effort.
It's still simple now.
Not long after, Lynch saw Bellemel in the team delivering oranges.
He was easy to recognize with a pink hair and a cigarette in his mouth. He looked only 26 or 27 years old.
His clothes were wet from moving oranges, but his face was still full of a bright smile.
Lynch strode over, "Madam, in order to ensure the quality of the oranges I bought, I want to see your orange orchard, okay?"
"So handsome."
Bellemel stood up and saw the man in front of him, and was slightly distracted.
"What did you say?"
"I praised you for being a handsome guy~"
Being sticky, Bellemel simply took off his coat, revealing a good figure.
She looked in the direction of Kensuke, and Kensuke nodded to her.
"Okay, come with me. Don't bring too many people, or the children will be scared."
"Okay, I'll go with you alone, and the others will receive the oranges here."
Here, as soon as they arrived at Bellemel's orange orchard, the smile on her face disappeared instantly.
"Tell me, what do you want me for?"
"Oh, why do you say that?" Lynch found that he had underestimated this woman's IQ.
"Woman's intuition."
"Okay." Lynch spread his hands and stopped pretending. "Bellemel soldier..."
Before he finished speaking, a long leg suddenly kicked at him.
Bang~
The scene changed, and Bellemel was pressed to the ground by Lynch with one hand.
"You should listen to me, soldier. I have no ill will towards you. I just want you to stop hiding anything from me by pointing out your identity."
"Woo~ Let me go first, bastard!"
Bellemel's long legs struggled hard.
