I'll forge a new destiny

Chapter 34 Goodwill or Malice

Zhang Xing didn't want to drink. Whether it was thoughts from his previous life or his physical condition in this life, he didn't develop the habit of drinking.

But that doesn't stop him from hiding here.

After declining another woman's invitation, Zhang also realized that there might be more to cover than just the watermelon rind.

A very happy trouble - this means that everyone who has seen him will find it difficult to forget his appearance.

‘Especially that woman. ’

He wasn't too worried that Tina would be harmful to him, but just as he was unwilling to hand over the Shadow Blade easily.

Tina's opinion doesn't matter now.

No matter what her thoughts were, the deputy general named Su would definitely have different thoughts and actions.

Perhaps in Tina's report, Zhang Xing would be a customer who had good intentions towards the Mellan family, but was aggrieved because of his improper operations, and could be appeased by his sincere apology.

But Zhang Xing knows very well that unless he can directly appear in front of someone with enough status in the Mellan family and who really respects Captain Wind, just like Tina.

Otherwise, he will definitely get into a lot of trouble because of the Shadow Blade.

The longer it goes on, the harder his troubles will become.

Because even if there are only two opinions about him in the Mellann family, the one who is willing to believe him, as he does not return the Shadow Blade for a long time, these people may think that he is greedy at any time.

Especially when they don’t know that there is another party.

Even if he was really lucky, he would meet a suitable target when he walked out of this tavern and return the Shadow Blade to its original owner.

Until Mellann's troubles are completely resolved, he will not be out of sight of certain characters.

Whether it was because of anger or other reasons, it was inconvenient for him to resist even if he lost the Shadow Blade, and he could easily be wiped out casually.

"So..." Rubbing the vase hanging around his neck, Zhang Xing lowered his eyes, unable to tell: "It was just an ordinary task before, but now it has become a personal grudge."

Then he couldn't take advantage of his big fist to kill all those people?

"Don't rush, don't rush..."

While covering himself with the cloak wrapped in the watermelon rind, he changed places.

In this deserted corner, Zhang Xing looked at every new person who walked in.

Mellann's control over the Eris Port is comprehensive, although due to the complex situation in the lower city, Zhang Xing can safely hide here.

But there was no cover when he entered the port of Eris, whether it was the crew members he dismissed, the ship he sold, or even Brick and the others who were carrying large and small bags.

Whether it is out of good intentions or malicious intentions, it is not difficult at all to find traces of Zhang Xing from these things that cannot be hidden.

What Zhang Xing wants to do now is to make sure that the first thing that appears in front of him is kindness?
  Or malicious?

He won't have any special thoughts about Mellon because of this. After all, he is just a deliveryman.

But with the current situation in Myrlann, to what extent have those deep-seated crises that exist under the tide and cannot be touched reached?
  But it can determine the direction of Zhang Xing's future actions.

This pub is a great choice - it is indeed located in the downtown area, but from the not-so-shabby environment, it is easy to see that it is not that far away from the uptown area.

This means that if there is any news in Shangcheng District, feedback will be given soon.

Regardless of whether Zhang Xing did it intentionally or because he was negligent, when he came out of that small courtyard and left that remote place. His cover-up was certainly not perfect, even if no one paid attention to his movements at the time.

But if anyone asks, he will definitely be able to find where he is now.

Just like these sailors who came in now, they were so conspicuous that not only Zhang Xing, but also everyone else in the tavern could see the problem.

First of all, although they have obvious rough skin and strong bodies that have been smoked by the sea breeze and scorching sun from working on decks and ports for a long time.

But they are too clean.

The importance of maintaining hygiene on board a ship cannot be overstated, for a group of strong men who can only sleep together in hammocks. No matter how good your hygiene habits are, it can be difficult to keep yourself tidy. Zhang Xing understands this very well - Tucci is an example.

Well, maybe not a very broad example.

But these sailors are most likely not an exception. On the whole, they are not only cleaner than the crew members on the ship Zhang Xing was on before, but they are even better than Captain Wende's subjects.

Captain Winder's Watermelon Pi is one of the most outstanding ships in the world.

Secondly, they didn't seem to be here to relax. Not only did they not scatter in all directions after entering, they couldn't even get past the fruit seller. Even the girls who came up to promote themselves didn't even take a second look.

Maybe I watched it, but it was definitely not for a certain purpose.

What are they looking for, and they don't even want to take the time to order a beer?

Anyway, it's always a strange thing to be in a pub without even a glass of wine in hand. Especially when a group of them get together, it becomes even more strange and eye-catching.

Just like Zhang Xing who did not have much money in order to wait.

Well, just like Zhang Xing.

In fact, it's not very similar. After all, the atmosphere here is very relaxed, and many drunkards are happy to try out whether the tables in the pub are comfortable to sleep on.

So Zhang Xing actually has a wine glass in his hand - what is this so-called quiet corner of a tavern like?
  Drunkards were lying on the floor, and cups that were swaying around before they had a chance to finish drinking were everywhere.

If he wanted to, Zhang Xing could say that these wine glasses were his. As a generous captain, he was entertaining his crew.

And obviously these words were of no use to those sailors. Unless their heads were severely clamped twice by a table and chair, they would not believe it.

Therefore, the sailors stood in front of Zhang Xing.

"Let me guess..." Zhang Xing did not remove the cloth on his head. He felt that this disguise was very atmospheric, so he planned to maintain it.

This made him start to sound pretentious when he spoke: "You are looking for a job, so you chose me, a generous captain? But I have to say..."

After scanning the sailors who came around, I have to say that Eris is indeed a tolerant place.

Although there are no strangers, these people are quite different.

"I am only recruiting sailors at the moment, no cargo is needed."

The two darker-skinned ones obviously moved a bit. After being stopped by their companions, the leader of the boatswain sat in front of Zhang Xing.

"Your face is easily impressive." He paused, as if he wanted to be kind. "Judging from your blatant behavior, you don't intend to hide."

At this time, it may seem a bit disappointing to say that I just made a simple mistake.

So Zhang Xing didn't say anything, and just pushed the unfinished cup on the table - maybe it wasn't that he didn't finish it, but that he spit out some of it after finishing it - in front of the bosun.

This man accepted Zhang Xing's overtures without even looking at what was inside.

Of course he didn't drink either.

"So we come with good intentions, in order to prevent that little misunderstanding from turning into a real conflict."

This man seemed to really think he was being kind and sincere.

"I don't know what you took, but according to the information I got, it's not something you can touch. You should touch--"

"Did you ask clearly before you came?" Zhang Xing interrupted the boatswain and held his head down amid the commotion of other sailors and guests in the tavern.

"Ask clearly, who are you looking for?"

Staring into those somewhat bewildered eyes, Zhang Xing was very disappointed.

"Or do you think I can still talk to you well at this point, right?"

Now, the man has to drink it.

　Which brother gave the reward? Let me give you one first!
