Chapter 16: Spend the money
Following behind the dark armor that only Lynch can see.
Lynch and Robin, two tall figures over two meters tall, sneaked into Hobguack's luxurious mansion in the night.
The substitute led the two of them and avoided all the servants along the way, as if they were in an empty place.
…
Hobak was wearing a bathrobe, exposing his fat chest, and lying on the bed with a smirk on his face.
When he was treating Xin Duoli during the day, the feeling of caressing the girl's swollen feet lingered on his fingertips... The fat doctor imagined the bright future that might exist, and began to think about what clothes he should wear and what gifts he should give when he went to visit her for consultation and dressing changes in the next few days...
Besides, what would be a good name for the child of Xin Duoli and himself? "Hiss, hiss! Hiss..."
Hobgub was rolling around on the bed laughing to himself when he suddenly heard the window creak.
The curtains swayed, the moonlight shook, and scattered all over the ground.
The floor-to-ceiling window in his room was opened without him noticing.
"Strange, I clearly closed it?" Hobak staggered in his slippers to close the window, but he heard heavy footsteps behind him, dong dong, dong dong, dong, there was more than one person!
Sweat immediately broke out on Hobak's fat forehead.
In the moonlight under his feet, two tall and strong figures were visible behind him.
One of them raised his hand and pointed it at the back of his head. He could tell what the thing in his hand was just by looking at its shape.
"Don't move, doctor. Slowly, slowly, turn your head."
Hogbak's forehead was covered with greasy sweat, and he shrieked, "Who are you?"
He didn't look back. Who knows if the other person is the kind of psychopath who would kill someone to silence him if his face was seen.
At the same time, his mind raced, and he quickly went over the people he might have offended, or the patients who could have been saved but were too lazy to save.
I can't imagine who would suddenly show up at my house with a gun in the middle of the night without anyone noticing? !
He glanced cautiously at his reflection in the French window.
I saw two tall figures behind me. One of them was wearing a black windbreaker and a star-patterned mask; the other was wearing a white windbreaker and a butterfly-shaped mask.
The man wearing the star mask held a gun to the back of his head, and his big palm made the gun look very small.
"You ask who we are? Haha..." The tall figure with the star mask made a low voice, "Golden Spirit Duo, how about this name? I heard that you, doctor, are very good at calculating the value of human life. Now, let's do the math together, how many Baileys can be exchanged for the heart of a famous and accomplished genius surgeon?"
Golden Spirit Duo? Hogbak was a little confused at first.
But when I heard the second half of the sentence, I immediately came to my senses.
Damn, it’s just robbery, why put it so euphemistically!
"Shh! Shh! So you're asking for money!" Hogbag pretended to be relieved, raised his hands and slowly turned around, "This is too easy. How much do you want? One million Baileys? Two million?"
Under the light, under the hood of the large black and white windbreaker, the tall figures with star masks and butterfly masks looked so imposing.
He is of large build and has an average head.
A bandit with weird body proportions!
"Two million? Who would have thought that the legendary genius doctor would be so modest?" The tall figure with the star mask laughed in a low voice, "I think two hundred million Baileys is more suitable for your status."
"Two hundred million!? Stop kidding!" Hobak suddenly jumped up.
"Who is joking? Maybe we can ask the doctor's own heart," the man with the star mask waved his gun, "and listen to what he thinks. This is more fair, don't you think?"
He turned around and asked his companion in the butterfly mask. The latter froze for two seconds and said in a low and unclear voice: "Hmm..."
What a pair of psychos! Hogbak cursed inwardly, but suddenly he felt a hand on his chest.
The fat man suddenly got goose bumps all over his body. There was clearly no one in front of him! He stepped back in fear, but the invisible hand followed him like a shadow, forcing him to the French window, pressing hard on his chest, squeezing in desperately, as if to squeeze into his fat layer and flesh alive...
Hogbag was so frightened that his face was about to become thin! He felt a chill in his heart. This slowly seeping threat was like a knife, implanting fear into his heart.
Soon, the invisible hand actually grabbed his heart! "Ah——" The fat man wanted to scream heartbreakingly, but an invisible hand covered his mouth, making him groan.
"Hehe... It seems that Mr. Heart does not agree with the price of two million." The man with the star mask twirled his gun and said, "Doctor, is that right?"
…
The next day, Dr. Hogback fell ill.
He ordered his servant to take the replacement medicines and medical advice to Miss Cinderella of the dance troupe, and apologized to her that he was not feeling well and might not be able to see the patient in person.
Xin Duoli was recuperating in bed, with the dog bandaged beside her. Her fellow dancers collected and paid for the medicine. Xin Duoli said politely, "I hope Dr. Hogbag will recover soon. It's a pity that our troupe will leave for another island soon, so we can't visit you..." The servant accepted the words of sympathy and left quickly.
"Really? He's a doctor, but he's sick!" Joanna, her fellow dancer, complained quietly, "But it's okay that he can't come. I don't think he has good intentions towards you..."
Xin Duoli looked at the puppy licking milk beside the bed, smiled softly when she heard the words, and did not express any opinion.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
On the other side, after the servant came back, he heard from him a strange rumor in the town in the past two days. Hogbak wrapped himself tightly in the quilt on the luxurious bed, but he couldn't stop shivering.
After a day of fermentation, rumors about the evil ghost of Pirate King Roger can now be heard from time to time in the streets of this town.
Roger?
The vengeful spirit of the Pirate King?! Could it be that the one who extorted 50 million Baileys from me last night was the evil spirit guided by the vengeful spirit of the Pirate King Roger?! Thinking about it this way, it seems that I am lucky to have only been extorted 50 million...
…
Lynch certainly had no idea what others were thinking. Anyway, he had a full pocket and was carrying a backpack full of 50 million Bailey bills. After robbing the rich and giving to the poor, he left with Robin.
When you have money, you naturally spend it.
Or, it was precisely because Lynch considered that he would need to spend a lot of money in the future that he made such a big move on Doctor Hogback. In the comics, this guy helped Moonlight Moriah dig graves everywhere, sew up corpses, and enslave other people's shadows. When his favorite stage actress Sindoli died accidentally, the first thing he did after joining Moriah was to dig out the girl's body, sew it up, and stuff a shadow into it as if it were resurrected, and play with her as a maid at home... Lynch had no psychological burden to blackmail such an unscrupulous fat man. But if he didn't just kill him, would he be called a saint? Lynch laughed and didn't take it to heart. He took Robin all the way to another urban area.
Wherever he walked, ears and eyes made of flower petals would grow in hidden places on the walls, checking passers-by to see if there were any annoying gangsters coming to cause trouble again.
In addition, the black armor stand "BIB" was silent as usual, but carried out the orders of the main body meticulously, hovering in the area of more than ten meters around, paying attention to any movement around.
Although the intensity of its alert and release activities is not high, as long as it leaves the main body, it can be regarded as a part of Lynch's training.
exercise.
Of course, Lynch will invest the money he earned into his own development.
In the world of One Piece, fists are ultimately the most effective.
If O'Hara's gang had a strong fist, would they be afraid of the Navy's Demon Killing Order? You dare to bombard O'Hara with cannonballs, right? Let's form a group and go to each naval base one by one, fight guerrilla warfare with you, and flatten your branch bases one by one, and see who will feel more distressed.
Among the Four Emperors of the Sea, at least the Big Mom Pirates have a fixed territory, but the navy has never sent warships there to show off their demon-slaying orders.
If the navy dares to issue an order to kill demons, I'm afraid the aunt will dare to go to the naval base with a knife and get sick.
Therefore, improving one's own strength is a top priority.
It would be a waste if we didn't make good use of a Stand with characteristics like "BIB".
However, Lynch and Robin both have somewhat shady identities. If they want to gain a foothold in the town of this island and find a place to live, they will have to make a lot of money.
Moreover, after you start exercising, your body's consumption must be supplemented with adequate nutrition, and a large amount of food is another expense.
Disguised as the Flower-Flower Fruit, Lynch and Robin were followed by a tall figure wearing a loose windbreaker, a hood and a mask. They found a real estate agency and started looking at houses.
The collection is increasing very slowly, and there are so few chapters. I feel uneasy...
