Abyss Express

"If you want to talk about my origin! You have to start from my father's photography studio!"

On the deck platform of the merchant ship, Captain Guagua introduced himself to the new crew members.

"I am the child of a disaster beast, just like you imagined!"

A group of dock workers, freight personnel and purchasing distributors gathered together. Hidden in the crowd were two old acquaintances——

——It’s Flavia and Duran.

"Oh!~~" Flavia's face was full of novelty and excitement when she saw this male frogman: "Dulan!~ Look at him! Look at him! Oops!~ If I take a lick of this If it’s a toad, will it be poisoned?!”

Duran: "Please respect our captain."

Captain Guagua, who was standing high up, could not hear the voices of the two sisters clearly, but continued to talk about his family background.

"One day, Mr. Sparrow, a young and promising boatman, came to Eureka! This place is an industrial scientific research and development land created in conjunction with the Eureka Project in the mortal world."

He has green-black back skin, two big watery eyes almost reaching the top of his head, a pointed mouth full of short and thick teeth, no raised nose, and only two ventilation holes can be seen from above the beast's snout. .

He wore a decent sailor uniform and had four fingers with webbed knuckles.

“He loved cameras, he loved taking pictures of landscapes, he loved the sunsets in Eureka.”

"One day, he took a photo with his roommates in the leaky boatmen's dormitory. It was this photo that led him to find my mother."

Captain Quack said this, and a loud laugh burst out from between his mouthpiece.

"Hahahaha!~ Right at the window of the dormitory, from this small photo, Mr. Sparrow saw a pair of beautiful yellow eyes!~"

"That night, he leaned against the window sill and looked for the owner of these eyes."

"Outside the window is the back entrance of Wild Lily Nightclub. There is only a dark alley."

"Mr. Sparrow can't see clearly. Even the street lights can't illuminate the alley."

"Until a sharp and terrifying voice came from the darkness!"

At this point, Captain Guagua's belly swelled and his expression became fierce.

"The voice threatened - don't come closer! Don't come closer!"

"But Mr. Sparrow is not afraid! His heart is full of courage and curiosity."

"He said - who are you? Where are you? Can I see you?"

"The voice in the dark responded - you burn the photo! I will promise you and let you take a look."

"Mr. Sparrow was very puzzled, because those eyes were like jewels, like jade and tourmaline, which fascinated him."

"So he asked - why? Why burn it?"

"At this very moment, a little head with pimples on its face popped out from under the window sill. It was a toad. The pimples all over its body looked like rotten and smelly cancerous tissue. It crawled out of the ditch with all its strength. Go to the window sill, scream and roar at Mr. Sparrow - because I'm ugly!~ I'm ugly!"

Speaking of this, Captain Gua Gua changed his expression to a tender and comfortable one.

"Ah, Mr. Sparrow, my father, the great savior who gave me the genes of Homo sapiens."

"He was talking to this little toad - but I don't think you are ugly at all. Can I continue to take pictures of you? I want to get to know you!"

"Look! What a great figure you have! Your eyes! Your nose! Your mouth! Just like a fairy in a fairy tale!"

"So I was born! After the in vitro fertilization process taught in biology class, I transformed from a big tadpole into a big toad with hands, feet and super intelligence!~"

"I want to thank my father! I also want to thank my mother! I also want to thank the mountain demon and mountain giant, and thank Mimir for his blood!~ They created the miracle of life."

Captain Guagua emphasized and made a digression.

"Of course, good kids don't want to learn. The actual situation is more complicated than you think."

"The dormitory where my father lived was leaking. There was a toad's nest from the water tank to the boatmen's dormitory. He drank the poisonous water for half a month. The neurotoxins caused him to hallucinate and he recognized my mother as someone in a nightclub. A beautiful woman with a curvy front and back."

"But the relationship between husband and wife is still harmonious. Dad treats my mother like a pet. He can't sleep without licking her a few times every day."

"I have grown up like this day by day. Mr. Sparrow is a very responsible and caring person. Even if I am a beast hybrid, I am still his flesh and blood. I really love this father and I want to be People like him!"

"This is the story of Captain Guagua!~Brothers! Sisters! Friends from all over the world!~In the next more than a month, we will board this ship Nostalgia! It is my third ship and my Lover! My career! My everything!”

"I fulfilled my father's dream, from a small boatman to a helmsman, a first mate, and a captain!"

Sparse applause came from the audience——

——Flaviya looked excited, as if she had eaten a fresh melon, and she pulled Sister Duran to clap her hands vigorously, applauding Captain Guagua’s story.

"I'm so touched"

Dulan: "This is a poisoning accident. Why are you so moved?"

Flavia wiped her tears and said, "This feeling transcends races. Shouldn't I cry?"

Duran: "There are too many different races! From Mammalia to Amphibians!"

"You don't understand, Duran! You don't understand!~You don't understand at all!~" Flavia said aggrievedly; "Candy is something that brings happiness and smile to people, I am a candy maker The craftsman, when Captain Gua Gua told the sweet story about Father Sparrow, I felt like I was about to get drunk after drinking plum wine - it was too sweet."

"Uh" Dulan didn't quite understand.

In other words, most ordinary people can't understand it either.

In Flavia's opinion, it is too easy for a beautiful story to turn into an accident.

For example, two people who love each other are about to get married, but they quarrel over who owns the house. The sweet love story turns into an accident involving money.

The origin of Captain Guagua's life was originally a poison accident.

But Mr. Sparrow turned it into a fairy tale. This is also the corporate culture of the Fairy Tale Kingdom brand, and it is what Flavia has always wanted to pursue since she started her business.

After handling matters related to the ship's travel, Captain Guagua immediately began to receive guests, especially the two distinguished guests Flavia and Duran.

"Ladies." Guagua held her head high, bowed and saluted when she came to Flavia: "You two can go to the cabin to choose a room. As for the goods, the Transportation Department has arranged a convoy and they will be loaded onto the ship tomorrow morning."

Speaking of this, Captain Gua Gua lowered his head and whispered.

"I believe the children in Shambhala will also like the candy in Fairy Tale Kingdom."

Flavia asked happily: "Really?"

Captain Guagua blinked his eyes, winked, and responded in a low voice: "Of course, I, a man in his thirties, ate the chocolate you made. I was not very sober at first, and I remembered that my father taught me about human beings when I was a child. The throaty vocal skills, and he asked me to read and read, and I couldn’t stop crying—these candies are amazing.”

"Look! Duran! Look! Listen! ~Captain Guagua understands me!" Flavia tugged on her good sister's sleeves.

Dulan, on the other hand, was full of suspicion, thinking that Captain Toad was just talking nonsense.

Captain Guagua clasped his hands together: "On behalf of the children of Sendai Prefecture, I also want to thank you for your kindness. The first batch of more than 4,500 kilograms of candies, including nut biscuits, honey syrup and other high-calorie foods, and more! And My favorite chocolate, these are gifts for people in poor villages and towns around Sendai Prefecture.”

Flavia kept nodding: "Yes! Yes, yes, yes!"

"This is a good start." Captain Guagua praised repeatedly: "You have excellent business vision and sent gifts to Chabon to express your goodwill. Are you planning to open a factory in Sendai Prefecture next?"

"Uh" Flavia was stunned now.

To be honest, she has never had the idea of ​​​​opening the factory to the other side of the world. She has not investigated the production conditions, sales and other information. This donation of candy products is just in line with BOSS's action plan.

Flavia is a studious girl. After learning about the history of Shambhala, this little black snake developed a strong sympathy for the children on the other side of the sea in Pompeii, so she wanted to go to sea with this batch of goods on the Nostalgia. Look at the other side.

Facing Captain Guagua's question, Flavia couldn't hold back a fart for a long time.

Dulan immediately responded: "I have this idea. But I think, Shambhala has the rules of Shambhala, and that continent may not be very reasonable - whether these candies can be delivered to children's mouths is unknown. "

"Don't talk about doing business. Hey."

Duran chuckled softly.

"It will be good to come back safely."

After hearing what Dulan said, Captain Guagua couldn't ask any more questions.

He took the two distinguished guests to the dormitory area of ​​the Nostalgia and chose two spacious single rooms. Although they were spacious, they were not actually very big. The room was like a toilet. According to the standards of cargo ships, sailor dormitories were generally With only one berth, the two VIPs traveling with the ship can get such a little private space.

At the guardrail, Flavia saw a golden streamer under the dark sea level——

——That mark is like a guiding light in the shallow sea. Looking farther away, Ports 2 and 3 also have this kind of light source.

"What is this?" Flavia asked curiously.

Captain Guagua immediately said: "This is our backbone!~"

Duran: "Spine?"

Captain Guagua explained: “There are ferocious sea monsters in the ruthless sea of ​​Pompeii, but compared to sea monsters, the pirates lurking among the archipelago and fjords, as well as the strange and inexplicable weather and ocean currents, are the most terrifying things. .”

"Our experienced pilots can also overturn due to bad weather while guiding ships in and out of ports."

"Not to mention the deep sea far away from the mainland. It is a place where there are no stars to guide you and it is easy to lose your way."

"If every railroad man and every militiaman has a spine given to them by the gunsmith, they have to rely on anonymous people to stand up straight."

"Then the boatman in Eureka has a spine given to him by the old Khan."

"These luminous ribbons are the power of his soul and the navigation beacon from Eureka Harbor to Shambhala."

"No matter how the ocean currents and monsoons change, as long as we follow these arrows, we will not lose our way."

"My father, Mr. Sparrow, is also the old Khan's deputy!"

Captain Guagua said proudly.

"Working like this day after day, deep into the dangerous sea, traveling back and forth between Eureka and Shambhala for seventy years."

"After the old Khan retired, he still ran the White Ape and fought side by side with the Anonymous. This sea is like a grassland, and the old Khan drew his territory on the grassland."

Flavia emphasized: "There is also BOSS!"

"Yes! Yes, yes!" Captain Guagua immediately added with a smile: "The rest of the spine was raised by BOSS with the panacea."

At the beginning of May, the autumn harvest operation has been quietly and slowly launched.

This is not only a pure military operation, but also a large-scale commercial operation. It is a long-term cooperation plan between the underground world and Shambhala.

Silver Bailey's representative in Anonymous was Mr. Leslie. This black man, Billy and Foianini, the three of them rushed to Sendai Mansion first, accompanied by a team of more than 20 lobbyists.

Leaning on the guardrail of the sightseeing boat, Billy the Kid and Leslie chatted wordlessly.

"I didn't expect you to become a lobbyist now? Or is it that Yinbailey's industry has been upgraded?"

"Master Apprentice, let me make a bold statement - this is how strange you are." Brother Black and Billy joked. They are both from the Little Brotherhood, but they have held different positions. They are half fellow villagers. Here’s the joke: “Multiply that number by twenty and there will be as many lobbying firms as there are states in the United States.”

The zoning political system in the underground world is highly self-made. With the Senate as the organizational unit, the color of the pyroxene and different races can be divided into countless factions. For the regional governors, the lobbyist team is like the air in the air. Like nitrogen, ordinary people can't feel it, but they are everywhere.

Silver Bailey's business cannot only stay in the two sectors of newsboys and beggars. As a lubricant for commerce, industry and service industries, Leslie has worked with Zhongmiaomen and has long since changed his track to serve as a member of Parliament. Lobbying for political donations, lobbying for power dependence for companies - now going on a campaign for BOSS, his first task is to investigate the powerful circles of the Sendai Prefecture, and provide intelligence to Anonymous as an unofficial diplomat.

If we can use peaceful methods to get the Sendai government to voluntarily give up on Judas, this would be the best result.

If chatting and treating guests to dinner doesn't work, then it will be the turn of violent agencies.

The people Leslie brought this time were all experienced lobbyists from the local political bureau. He also brought along two gunsmith apprentices, Billy and Foianini, who also hoped to bring more advanced and efficient production to the country. Ways to bring better development plans to Sendai Port.

Billy and Foianini were tortured by the Mad Butterfly Cult and could transform from ghosts back into human form. This is a symbol of civilization. Their skills and stories can become powerful evidence for the lobbying team - let The admiral of the Sendai Prefecture believes that human hands can create happiness and wealth, and one can become rich and powerful without eating people.

At this time, the freighter "Sickness" also set off.

A few days after the ship went to sea, Flavia and Duran talked about various longings and dreams.

The large cargo ship rose and fell in the waves, and the sailors on the ship began to tell strange stories, especially about the haunted cargo compartments.

Legend has it that every night late at night, when there are only about a dozen crew members on duty, the cargo boxes will make strange crackling noises. There were also rustling voices, especially those long boxes transporting candies.

These candies are sealed and difficult to open and inspect. Captain Guagua is a man who has seen strong winds and waves. He often wanders on the sea. He has personally experienced all kinds of myths and legends, so he doesn't take it to heart.

Until one day, when Guagua was working the night shift in person, he came to the cargo box area of ​​the Fairy Tale Kingdom.

I heard a loud and powerful shout coming from the box.

"To three!"

"I can't afford it."

"I only have one card left! Give me money, give me money!"

Bu Liuxing collected the money with a smile, got out of the cargo box, and was about to borrow the toilet on the freighter, when he happened to bump into Guagua.

Guagua saw a few nameless people wearing Morpho clothes in the candy box, and finally understood what was going on.

"Gift crab!"
