Chapter 394 Drawing
Looking at the mother and child hugging each other in front of him, Charles had a hint of envy in his eyes.
Although West doesn't know which timeline he was sent to by 010, he doesn't know what he went through.
Judging from his current appearance, it is certain that he must have experienced all kinds of unimaginable ordeals in these hundreds or even thousands of years.
But no matter what he went through, at least at this moment, everything he gave was rewarded, and he went home.
Charles walked up to the idol worshiped by his bandaged mother before. He looked coldly at the three mysterious evil eyes, "What's the use of praying to you, you disgusting waste!"
With a "click", the head of the statue was directly crushed by Charles.
At this moment, he heard two brisk footsteps behind him. They were West's younger siblings, who had returned home from school.
"Brother! You are finally back!"
"Great! We think of you every day."
"We and mom are so worried about you!!"
The excited two siblings, like koalas hanging on their bandages, tried to get a response from each other.
Faced with this kind of thing, Bandage, who never changed his face in response to various crises, showed a panicked expression for the first time.
Although these people were his family, he felt very strange, and he really didn't know how to deal with it.
Seeing his first mate in distress, Charles walked over to help him out.
"I owed your family a portrait before, you stand up, and I will draw one for you now."
Seeing that the famous governor wanted to draw a family painting for herself, Yi Lianna was obviously a little panicked.
But under the repeated persuasion of Charles and Linda, she finally reluctantly agreed.
The family put on their best clothes, stood up to each other, and watched the governor in front of him draw on the drawing board.
There were happy smiles on the faces of the four of them. Maybe they were not very rich, but at this moment, they were happier than most people in Earthsea.
Charles painted very slowly this time, and it took him nearly two hours to completely complete this work, which is the highest level he can achieve.
When Elena took her son and saw the contents of the painting, tears flowed down again.
On the drawing paper, in addition to her three children and her, there is a man standing next to her, which is her husband Kevin.
"You...you saw him? Is the legend true? Can madmen really see ghosts?"
Seeing Elena's excited expression, Charles froze for a second, then nodded slowly.
"That's right, I can see ghosts. In fact, he has always been by your side to protect you. He asked me to tell you that he is sorry for you, please forgive him."
Irina tugged at West's clothes with trembling hands. "Son, did you hear that? Your father has always been here. It is because of his blessing that our days will be better and better!"
Waiters looked at Charles with a hint of gratitude in his eyes. This result was much better than the real reality.
Charles waved to his first mate, carried the drawing board on his back and led Linda out of the cozy basement.
Walking on the bustling streets of Hope Island, Charles felt a little emotional for a moment. The bandage matter was a happy ending, and he hoped that his future self could be like him.
Next to him was Linda looking at Charles with envy, "Sometimes, deception may not be a bad thing, but I can't do this kind of thing at all now."
Charles said with a hint of melancholy in his voice: "I can't bring her husband back to life, nor can I bring her son back to his original state. The only thing I can do now is this."
Linda nodded. She looked at Charles' profile and said, "Captain, I think it is necessary to train the first mate on his behavior, otherwise his family will definitely see the flaw."
Charles shook his head, "No, the next thing is up to the first mate himself. Whether he tells his family the truth or not, let him decide for himself."
After saying this, Charles asked Linda, "What are you going to do when you get off the boat?"
Linda was taken aback for a moment, the captain had never asked such a thing before.
"I'll go to the prison later to see how much progress there is on their relics."
"Don't be too tired. After finally returning to the shore, let's have a good rest. I'll be busy tomorrow."
After Charles finished speaking, he kicked his feet on the wall next to him, and quickly jumped between the roofs and ran towards the Governor's Mansion.
Linda looked at the rapidly shrinking background, turned and walked back to her apartment. When she got back to her door, she had a bag of grilled fish in her hand.
When Linda opened the door, she saw a short man lying on the table, writing something with a pen in his fist. It was Salin, a man who was adopted by the rope people before.
"Ah!" Seeing Linda's return, Salin threw down the pen in his hand excitedly, and pushed his head to her chest, arching continuously.
The delicious grilled fish immediately attracted Salin's attention. He was so happy that he hugged the bag of grilled fish and gnawed it selflessly.
Linda ignored him, walked into her study, opened a thick book filled with notes, and read it carefully.
This was given to her by her teacher before she left. Compared with the extremely experienced teacher, she still needs more study, and the gap in age can only be made up by hard work.
After the mission to sea this time is over, she estimates that she will be able to study for a while.
She hopes that when she goes to sea next time, she can get closer to the teacher's strength. Although this is a bit unlikely, she is working hard in this direction.
Linda watched with ecstasy, and before she knew it, it was nighttime, and it was already dark outside the window.
"Gudu Gudu~" A strange voice came from the direction of the kitchen.
Linda looked up at the door, ignored it, and continued to be busy with her own affairs.
"Knock knock." Someone knocked on the study door, and a man's voice came from outside.
"Dinner is ready."
Linda put the book down, got up and went out.
On the table in the living room, besides a pot of mushroom and chicken soup and a few breads, there are also two beautifully cut fruit platters.
"Too much salt," Linda said after taking a sip of the chicken soup.
"I'm just a blind man, are you embarrassing me too much?" Orderic, who was wearing a black cloak hanging upside down from the ceiling, said calmly.
Lingda sawed a few pieces of bread and threw them into the chicken soup. After completely absorbing the soup, he put the chicken into his mouth with a spoon.
In the spacious living room, only the sound of Linda chewing and the ticking of the clock on the wall remained.
Orderic's words broke the calm. "How's the matter with the mate?"
"He's home." Linda would reply succinctly.
