Become Aquaman from Black Robe

Chapter 12 Regular Meeting of the Sevens

The native didn't look at Kevin for long. After noticing Starlight, he looked away from Kevin and turned to Starlight.

"Wow, I guess you're Starlight, welcome to the Seven."

"Thank you, Captain..."

"You can just call me a native of the motherland from now on."

The kind and amiable smile of the motherland must have left a lot of good impressions on Xingguang's heart.

Kevin looked on without saying a word, and the people from the motherland didn't pay attention to him, as if their initial gaze on him was just an illusion.

The captain of the seven-man team sat down in his seat and announced the start of the meeting:
"Okay, now it's time for the regular meeting. Do you have anything to say?"

The transparent man wearing only clothes was the first to speak:
"I do have something to say. People of the motherland, I think we should take some control over piracy?"

"Hmm, what should I say?"

The expression of the motherland remained unchanged and looked at the transparent man.

The transparent man turned the pen in his hand and held a report in his hand. He read it and said:
"There was a bunch of bastards who got pirated copies of my movie from nowhere three weeks before it was released. Walking on Fifth Avenue, you could see DVDs for sale and printed t-shirts of our motherland. "

As he spoke, his tone became slightly excited and he looked at everyone:

"This kind of infringement costs the company US$1.2 billion every year! This is our money! You must know that each of us gets a 4% share!"

"Wait."

The silent locomotive suddenly interrupted the transparent man. He frowned and asked in confusion:

"…You have four percent??"

"No, I only have two percent."

Kevin interrupted, and the engine looked at him. Kevin could see a look of relief on his face.

Fuck...this guy won't get more share than me, right?

Shen Hai is the youngest member of the seven-member team, and now she is in trouble!

Seeing the weird expressions on Locomotive and Kevin's faces, Maeve felt funny and said:

"Maybe we can talk to a lawyer about this? I mean piracy. The company has the best team of lawyers in the world."

"If the legal team is useful, piracy will not continue to be banned."

Kevin echoed.

Seeing that this group of people were discussing this matter more and more intensely, the motherland man lightly knocked on the table and said:
"Okay, okay, everyone, can we not quarrel over this little money? What do you think of us?"

Ha, what you said is quite upright. Who doesn't know that you are the one who makes the most money in the entire seven-man team.

Kevin resisted the urge to roll his eyes, echoing the words of his native countryman and nodding.

The motherland continued:

"How about we discuss the recent fight against crime? How many people have been saved, for example?"

He said, turning his eyes to Kevin:
"Deep Sea, how about we start with you? I also watched the news this morning. You did a good job, so good that I was a little surprised."

"It's nothing. After all, it's under the company's arrangement, isn't it?"

Kevin wanted to get away with it and didn't want to say more about this matter.

But it was obvious that the people of the motherland did not want to let him go easily. The smiles of the people of the motherland were still kind, and could even be said to be a little cheerful.

He smiled at Kevin like a good big brother:

"Come on, do you think I won't know what things are arranged by the company and what things are not? You really did a good thing last night, so what can't you say?"

"what?"

After the words of the motherland fell, the most surprised thing was the locomotive next to Kevin.

He always thought that what Shenhai did was arranged by the company. Thinking about the major news reports in the morning, he also wondered why this good thing did not happen to him.

As a result, the people of the motherland now tell him that this is a good thing Shenhai did on his own initiative?

Is the deep sea head crowded by fish or something?

This is not at all like the style of the deep sea.

Not only the locomotive, but Maeve and the Transparent Man also stared at Kevin with strange expressions.

Only Starlight still looked at Kevin with her shining eyes, which made Kevin feel quite uncomfortable. Kevin knew he couldn't hide, so he exhaled and responded with a smile:

"Well, actually yesterday I just encountered this human trafficking incident by chance at sea, and then...well, I suddenly came up with the idea of ​​saving them, that's all."

"Playing with fish at night and then getting involved in a crime, well, that makes sense."

The people of the motherland said casually.

But these words made other people's expressions change, because the "play" in the people of the motherland is not simply "play".

It also contains other meanings.

At this moment, even Xingguang, as a newcomer, felt that something was wrong in the atmosphere in the conference room.

Kevin's face also looked a little unattractive. His smile faded and he said to the people of the motherland:
"Captain, I don't seem to have offended you, right?"

Team Seven: "...!?"

Damn it! What did I see? How dare Shenhai take the initiative to attack the people of the motherland? !

People who know the deep sea look suspicious of life. They don't understand the starlight of the deep sea. They just feel that the atmosphere in the conference room becomes serious for no reason.

And she had no idea what was happening.

The smiles of the people of the motherland also slowly disappeared, leaving only the most basic fake smile.

He looked directly at Kevin, and Kevin didn't avoid it and said to him:

"Yesterday I simply went out to sea to relax, then I encountered human trafficking, and finally killed a group of gang members who would disturb social order. That's it. Other than that, I didn't do anything else, okay?"

After Kevin finished speaking, the conference room was surprisingly quiet.

Everyone's eyes looked back and forth between the two of them. Finally, the motherland broke the stiff atmosphere. He smiled and said:
"Yes, that's it, so Shenhai you are doing well, you deserve encouragement, keep up the good work."

After he finished speaking, he turned to the next person:

"Okay, now let's continue the meeting. Now, Xuanzi, tell me how many people you have saved during this period."

The meeting continued, and the tense atmosphere disappeared.

The seven-member team, who understood the character of the people from the motherland, all breathed a sigh of relief, but when they looked at Kevin again, their eyes were obviously different.

It's not because Kevin saved people last night...well, this incident was indeed unexpected, but what was even more unexpected was that Kevin dared to speak like this to the people of his motherland.

To say that it offended the people of the motherland was not a serious matter. At best, it just felt like the two of them were on an equal footing.

But this equal treatment is exactly what Deep Sea should not do.

Therefore, when the meeting ended and the motherland people left Shen Hai alone, the others also quickly left the meeting room.

Only Maeve and Starlight stayed for a while, but finally left the conference room, leaving only the motherland and Kevin in the conference room.

After everyone left, the fake smile that the people of the motherland maintained in front of the newcomers completely disappeared, replaced by a cold expression that made people feel scared just by looking at it.

He looked into the deep sea and said:

"You know why I kept you here."

"Actually..." Kevin's expression remained unchanged: "...I don't know."

The eyes of the motherland narrowed instantly:

"Then do you want to remind you? What did you hear last night?"

"I only heard the screams and wails of the victims. Other than that, I didn't hear anything. What? Should I hear something?"

Kevin looked very confused.

The surveillance video on the ship was defective, with only images and no sound.

And because the gang members had their backs to the camera, and the camera didn't capture Kevin's face, no one could use their lip shapes to analyze what was exchanged between them.

Kevin had already watched the video with Madeline several times to make sure there was nothing missing before he dared to say this.

So now he is not afraid of the people of the motherland at all...

Okay, I'm still a little scared.

Now he just hopes that the people of the motherland can stay rational and don't let laser eyes shoot at them...
