Chapter 41
Xiluobu Village was as peaceful as ever. The villagers walking along the street smiled and talked and greeted each other. As the sun went down, the day would pass soon.

The man in the gray cloak avoided the crowd, walked on the deserted road, looked down at a fruit with strange threads in his hand, and murmured: "That money-grubbing colonel hid this fruit in the secret vault... This must be a very important treasure! Will it grow gold coins after being buried in the soil, by the way, it must be so!"

She carefully looked at the fruit in her hand, and when she looked up again, she unknowingly found a luxurious villa in front of her, and sniffed her nose fiercely: "Is this scent guiding me here... ..."

Then I looked around and saw that there was no one around, so I jumped high and crossed the fence of the villa.

When she came to the backyard of the villa, she buried the strange fruit in a relatively soft and fertile land that looked like a medicine garden, where a lot of herbs were planted, and covered the fruit with a lot of soil, and gently patted it Clap the dust on your hands, "Hide it well, come back tomorrow morning to have a look, maybe it will really grow gold coins."

As she said that, her stomach growled, and the smell of hot food from the kitchen kept stirring her olfactory nerves, "Satisfy your stomach before..."

Following the scent, I opened the kitchen window, and then closed it gently. Seeing no one around, I unceremoniously stuffed the cheese, toast, and pumpkin pie on the table into my mouth , said vaguely: "Of course the task of a thief is to steal. Stealing food is my forte!"

Suddenly, her ears moved, her body dodged, took a few quick steps with the food plate, and hid behind the cabinet in the corner, chewing the soft pastry while listening to the movement outside.

There was a crackling sound of pots and pans in the kitchen, and a very anxious voice kept urging.

"Hurry up, the eldest lady is sick again, hurry up and prepare a medicinal meal..."

"Hey, the shape of this medicine is not only strange, but also smells so bad... Forget it, good medicine tastes bad, and the doctor's words are right, so hurry up!"

After a while, after the sound of footsteps disappeared, the man in the cloak leaned out and put the empty plate in his hand on the table: "These people are too stupid, they didn't even notice that there was less food..."

Before she finished speaking, she stared at the fruit peel on the table with wide eyes: "Wait, isn't this the strange fruit I buried just now!!!"

Then he immediately opened the window and ran back to the place where the fruit was buried just now, only to find that the fruit and the surrounding herbs had been plucked out.

Sure enough... the fruit in the kitchen was buried here by himself!

She covered her eyes speechlessly. Suddenly, her nose moved slightly, and she smelled a smell similar to that in the kitchen. A curiosity of "what will happen to that fruit" made her look up. .

After thinking about it for a while, she ran towards the nearby tree, jumped up like an agile cat, and squatted halfway on the thick tree trunk.

Through the gaps in the undrawn curtains of the villa window, a sickly blonde girl lying on the bed can be vaguely seen, and a man who looks like a housekeeper carefully scoops up the soup with a spoon and blows it with his mouth. After two mouthfuls, it slipped into the girl's mouth.

After a while, the sickly girl slowly opened her eyes, looking at the ceiling with a pale and weak face.

"Miss, you are awake. The prescription and special medicine prescribed by the doctor seem to be very effective." The butler breathed a sigh of relief.

"I'm sorry to trouble you, Mei Li..." Ke Ya looked around in confusion, "Where's Clabatel?"

"He went to buy food, but he hasn't come back yet." Mei Li helped Ke Ya's upper body up, and then slowly put the soup in the bowl into her mouth, "Miss, be careful."

"It stinks..." Keya covered her mouth, and the soup that was hard to swallow for a long time made her turn her head away in discomfort.

"Miss, the good medicine tastes bitter, you must finish it, so that your body can recover quickly..."

Ke Ya didn't listen to Mei Li's words at all, looking at the window sill with eyes full of joy, she subconsciously said, "Usopp!"

Meili put down the bowl, walked over and opened the curtain with a bang, and there was no one outside.

"How come...he didn't come today..." Ke Ya's joyful eyes instantly turned into disappointment.

"Miss, don't associate with that country liar anymore. Mr. Clobatel often tells me that he is not a good person, and he has another purpose to approach us..."

"Although it's only been a few months, I don't think Usopp is a bad person. Okay, let's stop talking about this matter..." Ke Ya didn't want to get entangled in this topic, "I've been watching the library that was highly rated back then. The medical book written by Lokas...Meili, do you think I have the talent to study medicine?"

"Of course, Miss, as long as you study hard, you will definitely become a famous doctor in the future!"

Ke Yayue smiled crescent-like eyes: "Okay, Meili, help me get the adventure book and the medical book."

Meili handed the thick "Ivan's Adventure Story" and "Kurokas' Medical Knowledge" on the bookcase to the coffee table next to the bed: "Miss, don't read it for too long, rest early, I will Go down first."

Ke Ya took the book on the bedside, put it on her propped knee, and opened a page with the bookmark in it, with a smile from the heart wandering on her pale face.

……

The east coast of Sirob Village.

A group of pirates happily danced around the bonfire. Usopp's excellent communication (bragging) ability quickly became one with the pirates, and was encouraged by the pirates to drink a lot of wine.

He looked at the pirates in front of him drunkenly: "I, Lord Usopp, have 8000 million subordinates, known as 'Proud Usopp', I once took my subordinates to a mysterious island, do you know , that island is made up of the feces of huge goldfish, it’s as big as this..."

As he spoke, he made a gesture.

Xiuma seemed to be a loyal little listener, with his ears pricked up, he looked at Usopp intently: "Wow, this is too powerful!"

"It doesn't exist, it is impossible for such an island to exist," Mochi whispered beside Xiuma, but the latter gave him a look of contempt.

"He didn't believe me..." Mochi knelt down on the ground frustrated.

"How could it be that you were hit!" Kabaji complained from the side.

Looking at the happy pirates in front of him, Bucky took a sip of his wine self-consciously: "It's really leisurely, Usopp..."

"Haha, what's the use of calling me Lord Usopp!"

Bucky handed over a reward list and said casually, "Do you know this person?"

"Pirates? Apart from you and Shanks, I don't know anyone else..." Usopp took the reward list from Bucky's hand, his pupils shrank suddenly, "He, he is..."

"More than two years ago, a pirate nicknamed 'Bai Ji Ke Luo' was captured by the navy and publicly executed. However... the guy who was executed was just a substitute. He himself did not die, but survived. ..."

Bucky looked at Usopp who was so shocked that he couldn't be more shocked, and said slowly: "Although Crowe's reward list was destroyed by the navy three years ago, as a colleague, I specially kept a copy."

Usopp crumpled the bounty list with a heavy face, clenched his fists angrily, and ran towards the village anxiously, "Keya..."

Kabaji asked suspiciously: "Captain Bucky, why did this kid leave suddenly?"

"Go and find the truth." Bucky looked at Usopp's back.

"I really want to see... what will happen if the plot is advanced, haha, I'm really a bad guy."
