The Secret Journey Begins with Becoming a Pirate

Chapter 172: Alibi

   Connor's expression was taken aback. But there was no shock on his face as Elok thought about it. Instead, it's a little guard.

   Seeing this, although Elok was a little surprised, he continued to explain:

   "I don't plan to let you kill him directly. It's just a tentative assassination. It's best to get him injured. But don't kill."

  When Elok finished saying these words, Connor's face showed doubts and asked:

   "Why?"

   "You don't have to worry about it. This is my commission to you. How about it. Isn't it easy?" Elok didn't explain, nor would he explain the meaning behind it.

   "How much?" Connor asked directly.

   "Earl Edward has a second-level knight bodyguard, and a life priest as a doctor. You don't need to kill these two people, so, 300 gold coins. How about it?" Ailock honestly gave his own price.

   "However, if Earl Edward dies, there will be no such money. I just want him to be injured."

   Connor frowned, failing to understand what Elok meant. But for the huge sum of 300 gold coins, she still failed to control herself.

   nodded, Connor continued to ask: "What time?"

   "Today. It must be before the ship docks." Elok gave the time.

   After thinking about it, Connor nodded and said, "Okay, I promise you. Remember, 300 gold coins."

   "That's great. Let's toast. After completing the task, come to me. I will give you money. Believe you can find me." Elok said with a smile.

   He picked up the tea cup on the table and took a sip for himself.

   "Since Mr. Fasma is finished. I will leave first." Connor did not intend to toast to Ellock, and said goodbye directly.

   "No problem, be careful." Elok said with a smile. "Oh, that's right. Why don't you hide in the shadows? Then no one will notice."

   Connor, who had turned around, was taken aback for a moment, then he thought about it, and patted his head suddenly. Then cast the skills to leave invisible.

   Seeing this, Elok couldn't help but laugh. Helplessly shook his head.

   Now, all that needs to be waited for is Connor's assassination. It would be better to make Edward more injured.

  , the effect is better. Earl Edward could not die anyway. And the life priest adds blood.

   But, in order to get rid of suspicion. I have to show up in front of outsiders.

   At the very least, find a witness.

   thought of this. He drank the remaining tea in the teacup in one gulp, and then walked out of the cabin.

   put on his coat and inserted silver pain into his armpit. Walked out of the room.

  ······

   After hiding in the shadows, Connor still didn't know what Lord Fasma thought. I sigh that this is an old fox, different from young people like myself who have just entered the society. Can't guess, can't guess.

   When she first heard Fasma’s request, all she had in her heart was panic.

   thought that the content of his graduation exam in the church had been exposed.

  In that case, I am afraid that I will fail the exam as my final result.

   But later, she felt that Lord Fasma didn't seem to know about it.

   Because he gave a huge sum of 300 gold coins. Since growing up, Connor has never seen so much money.

  If Fasma knew about this, why would he still entrust himself with Earl Edward? Wouldn't it be enough to wait for you to kill Edward? ?

   The most confusing thing is the content of the commission.

   Why not just kill it directly. Just get hurt? ?

   Moreover, he also gave information about the bodyguard around the target. This is something I don't fully know.

   I only know that Earl Edward has a bodyguard. I don’t know what profession or level. But he told himself directly.

   This also made my assassination easier. It's a bit of information.

   Besides, Earl Edward also has a doctor of life priest. The commission given by Fasma is the same as no assassination.

   Because the priest of life can heal non-fatal wounds.

   What is the purpose of such a commission? ? ?

   However, for the commission of 300 gold coins. Just do it.

   When I get the money, I will assassinate again.

   But, I'm afraid Earl Edward is afraid. If you can't find an opportunity, that's not good.

   I hope such an episode will not affect my exam.

  ······

   It’s about the most lively place on the boat after lunch. Except for the passengers on the lower deck who are still rioting, there is only the entertainment area at the stern.

   After all, the unchanging life on board is indeed boring.

   Therefore, going to the stern entertainment has become a limited means of entertainment.

   Elok's goal is there.

   He decided to find a few people over there to play cards to ease his mood.

   Of course, the most important thing is to find an alibi.

   However, Elok is repellent to gambling. But to find a proof. The problem is not big.

   He just came to the entrance of the chess area, but saw that Viscount Ma Sen had just come out of it. The expression on his face was a little frustrated, quite a bit of a sigh.

   Seeing this, Elok knew what happened, and said hello:

   "Your Excellency Viscount Mason. It's been a long time since I saw you. I miss you a little bit."

   "Oh. Your Excellency Fasma." Viscount Mason responded with a grin reluctantly.

   "Life is like a play. There are always ups and downs. It seems that Viscount Mason has bad luck." Elok said with a smile.

   Upon hearing this, Viscount Ma Sen also sighed and said:

   "Hey~Who said no. I just lost 50 gold coins. Today's luck is really bad."

   "Gambling always has more losers and fewer winners. This is the norm." Elock comforted.

   "Would you like a drink? I'll treat you." Elok said with a smile.

   Viscount Mason took a serious look at Elok and replied:

   "Okay, let's have a drink. Since it's Lord Fasma's treat, then I want to order the most expensive one. Hahaha~~"

   "Haha, of course there is no problem, this can comfort your wounded heart." Elok replied with a smile.

   Viscount Ma Sen patted his pocket when he heard the words, and joked: "Yes. You can also comfort my injured wallet."

   There is a small bar in the entertainment area, which is much smaller than Sanhe, but the decoration has reached a luxurious level.

   Ailuoke's original intention was to go to the chess and card room to find an alibi, but when he saw Viscount Mason, he had a better choice.

  He took Viscount Mason to the small bar. Although it was only in the afternoon, the bar was still open, but there were not many people.

   There is a couple who are in love, and two young people who are bragging.

   The bar behind the bar is a young man in a formal dress. Although he looks a little listless, he still stands behind the bar conscientiously. Seeing another visitor coming, he respectfully asked:

   "I wonder what the two adults would like to order?"

   "A glass of Rose Wine~lightnovelpub.net~ I heard that there will be leftovers from the last meeting." Viscount Ma Sen said directly.

   "Okay. What about this sir?" The bartender looked at Elok and asked with a smile.

   "A glass of Delta beer." Ailock replied the same.

   Although the bartender was a bit surprised, he didn't ask or questioned. He smiled directly and said:

"Please wait."

   "I have always liked Delta beer, and I always feel that other beers lack a bit of flavor." Ailock explained.

   "Ha, no need to explain. Everyone has his own taste." Viscount Mason responded. "Although I also like to taste red wine, Meige is my first time drinking. I heard that it is the manor of King Kafka XI's sister."

   "Oh? That wouldn't be bad. I don't have much taste for red wine. I probably only know how to roll my tongue." Elok laughed at himself.

   "Well~~ this is just a way. But in short, it is still to taste." Viscount Mason explained with a smile.

  At this time, the bartender had already placed a large glass of beer and a small glass of red wine in front of them. Bend away.

   "Thank you," Elok said politely.

   Then, Viscount Ma Sen also thanked him, and then said:

   "Tasting alcoholic beverages requires experience. If you drink too much, you will know what is good and what is bad."

   "That's right." Elok said after taking a swig of beer.

   "Just because I drink a lot of beer, I know that Delta beer is the best. Everything else is slag."

   "Hahaha~~" Viscount Ma Sen smiled heartily. Then he suddenly said:

   "I am now a little curious what did the Lord Fasma do before?"
