American Comprehensive Detective: Start with a black gun

Chapter 140 140 Pirates?

夜

Grace asks Ron to accompany her on a special deal.

Ron had no reason not to agree to Grace's request.

He's not the kind of person who is ruthless.

On the private pier, Ron saw Grace.

Grace wore a white shirt on her upper body, a purple silk scarf around her neck, and denim trousers and black boots on her lower body. Her already long legs became even longer now.

The seaside wind was very strong, and the salty sea breeze blew Grace's fiery red hair flutteringly, adding a touch of wildness to her already well-defined facial features.

This transaction was carried out at sea, and Ron watched the workers load and unload the boxes on the cargo ship. The boxes were very heavy and needed to be sent to the sailboat with a forklift.

Crucially, Ron actually saw an old-fashioned old two-masted sailing ship, a sailing ship with two masts and square sails.

There are muzzles on both sides, and there are three layers of artillery with strong firepower.

However, the old-fashioned cannon was parked in the cabin, and the black barrel seemed to allow Ron to travel through time and space and return to the 18th century.

Ron broke open a wooden box, which contained a revolver and a Lee-Enfield rifle.

The Lee-Enfield rifle was a British Army service manual rifle from 1896 to 1965, featuring smokeless powder, a rotating rear-pull action, and a box-shaped detachable magazine.The rear-end locked rotary rear-pull bolt action has a relatively fast loading speed.

It means that the bullets are put in from the rear loading port, and five standard bullets can be put in at a time, which greatly speeds up the rate of fire. It is one of the most advanced rifles at the end of the nineteenth century.

But this thing is actually brand new.

The point is, who would want such an old antique that has been eliminated for many years?
Even the robbers would not want such an old antique. Compared with directly changing the magazine, the reloading of this kind of bullets and bullets is too slow.

This is not how the arms business works!

Can't keep up with the trend of the times!
Ron looked at Grace curiously.

Grace took Ron aside and confessed everything to Ron.

It turns out that Grace's husband was an Allied officer during World War II, and the officer died in the war.

Perhaps the officer missed his beautiful abandoned son too much, and didn't want to take advantage of outsiders.

So, he turned into a wraith and went home to kill Grace, the widow.

Even if it is death, they have to die together. There is a sense of déjà vu that they lived in the same quilt, died in the same hole, or were buried together.

Grace certainly didn't want to die with her husband.

She was a widow, so why should she die?
By chance, Grace was resurrected 20 years ago by a mysterious wizard.

However, the condition put forward by the other party is that they will trade with her once every ten years.

The things that are traded are these weapons.

Ron was shocked after hearing Grace's explanation.

He saw that there was something wrong with Grace, but he didn't expect it to be so big.

Ron suddenly felt unclean.

According to age, Grace is probably close to 100 years old.

I was actually with a 100-year-old woman.

Hey, is this a loss of morality, or a distortion of human nature?

The point is, Grace's confession, coupled with Grace's appearance that resembles Nicole Kidman, reminded Ron of a movie "Small Island".

Compared to the movie, this is the real Kojima Cry.

False Island Cry is a touching family ethics story.

The real Kojima Cry is a scary love story.

First, the husband turned into a wraith and killed the widow.

Then the widow was resurrected and ate her own tender grass.

Ron was speechless for a long time, and finally, smashing his mouth, he resolutely admitted this sadomasochism.

Vampires are hundreds of years old, so they can still have love. I'm talking about you, Edward Cullen and Isabella Swan, not to mention those loves between ghosts, snakes, machines, and gods.

Especially the latter two.

People and spiritual artifacts, spiritual artifacts may be tens of thousands of years old.

Not to mention the love between humans and gods, gods are creatures of another dimension, almost immortal, and have no lifespan at all.

After figuring it out, Ron decisively grabbed Grace's waist and asked, "There won't be any danger this trip, right?"

Grace thought for a while, "There shouldn't be any danger. The last time it went smoothly, it was a group of shabby-clothed pirates who traded with us. After the transaction was completed, we came back smoothly."

When Ron heard that there was no danger, he felt that he could continue to like Grace.

After all, Grace is still very fragrant, and those long legs can kill people.

Of course, he didn't really trust Grace that much, so he felt it was a more appropriate choice for him to stay with Grace.

Grace couldn't say anything, because he wanted to protect Grace.

Lastly, he's curious about who Grace trades with.

He can actually resurrect the technique, and it's still a resurrection skeleton.

The level is much higher than him, maybe you can ask for advice.

After the weapons were loaded on the ship, the shipping workers dispersed.

Then I saw a woman dressed as a fat housekeeper, and brought a few servants onto the boat.

Ron knew several people, and they were servants of Grace's manor.

Ron had always thought they were mere wage workers.

Unexpectedly, they had been working for Grace more than 80 years ago.

They are also resurrection creatures.

However, they are half-finished products, and they will turn into scary skeletons at night under the moonlight.

Grace stood on the deck and Ron stood beside.

Grace took out an ancient oil lamp from the suitcase she was carrying.

The whole body of the oil lamp is golden, with intricate patterns engraved on it. The oil lamp resembles a teapot, with a handle at one end, a golden chain at the end of the handle connecting the lamp cover, and a long spout at the other end.

Grace fell over the bow, and a drop of bright water fell into the sea water.

White mist rose around the ship.

The sailboat was engulfed in white mist.

After the white mist dissipated, the pier disappeared.

The long coastline has also disappeared, and there is only the endless sea here.

Damn, is it so magical?

Ron looked at the scene in front of him in surprise.

In this magical world, there is no doubt that this Aladdin's lamp is magical.

Ron asked Grace, "Is this something given to you by that wizard?"

Grace nodded, "Yes!"

Ron asked again: "So you only need to complete the transaction with that wizard, and then you can drop another drop and return smoothly?"

"Yes, but the wizard needs to do it himself!"

"It seems that the wizard is late."

"Uh... I don't know, he was already here when I came last time."

Grace was a little nervous, her brows were slightly wrinkled.

At this moment, a black shadow suddenly appeared in the distance, and the black shadow became bigger and bigger, and soon a Galen sailboat appeared not far away.

Galleon?

This is a typical 17th to 19th century, the most popular ship to and from the Atlantic Ocean.

So we crossed from the Pacific Ocean to the Atlantic Ocean in one fell swoop.

At this moment, on the worn-out canvas, an obvious skull flag was raised.

That's the sign of a pirate.

pirate?
