Chapter 849 Companion

Linda reached out and slapped a speck of dust off her adopted son.

"Is there anything good about it? If you really want to let him out, he will starve to death. Why don't you just keep him like this? What do you expect a person who was raised by an island native to do?"

"But——" Before James finished, he was interrupted by the other party. "No need, this is my family business, you don't need to worry about it, and classes will start soon, let your daughter go to school quickly."

Raising his wrist to check the time, James realized that he was going to be late soon, as Linda said. He hurriedly took his daughter by the hand and sent her to the school gate.

James watched his daughter walk into the school together with the tall Salin, with a gratified smile on his face, "I still remember how she was when she was just born. I didn't expect her to be so big in a while."

But Linda obviously didn't want to answer this question, so she changed the subject directly. "Where are you going later?"

"Where are you going? Of course, go to the General Administration to work. Don't you have to work? I heard that you are responsible for handling some of the things Anna left behind."

"You can let go of the work first. I suggest you go to the Governor's Mansion to see the captain."

A trace of worry appeared in James' heart, "Go and see him? What's wrong with the captain?"

"You have a better relationship with him than I do. You'd better ask what the captain is going to do. Some of his recent actions have made me a little worried." Linda said flatly.

Hearing Linda say this, what his wife said to him flashed in James' mind, "Okay, I'll go and see him, in fact, this matter should be referred to the chief mate, the relationship between the bandage and the captain is the best. "

"I will also notify him." After Linda finished speaking, she immediately turned around and walked towards the passing tram. Her body passed through the outer wall of the tram and went directly inside.

James raised his head and looked towards the somewhat hazy Governor's Mansion in the distance, "Ike, drive the car past."

"Director, where are we going?"

"Go to the governor."

"Crack~" The rolling car tires stopped in front of the Governor's Mansion, James pushed open the car door, and strode towards the gate guarded by guards.

Under the leadership of the butler, James quickly found his captain. He was throwing some papers into the small fire in the backyard of the Governor's Mansion, and the glittering golden Lily was slowly circling around him.

"Mr. Charles! The big man is coming!" Lily reminded in time.

Some hunched backs turned slightly, and Charles saw his first mate. "How did you come?"

James strode forward and raised the wine bottle in his hand, "Tomorrow we are going on a long voyage, and I came here to help you."

"Sit down." As soon as Charles finished speaking, a set of tables and stools flew out of the window behind him and landed firmly in front of him.

The yellow-brown liquid rolled in the transparent wine glass, and the glass made a crisp sound when they collided with each other. After taking a sip, James looked curiously at the small fire in front of him. "Captain, what are you burning?"

"It's nothing. When I was exploring, I was afraid that I would die suddenly, so I left a few suicide notes under the bed. Since I don't explore now, these things are useless." Charles looked at the wine attached to the glass wall said the little bubble.

Lily flew over and wanted to drink, but was gently grabbed by him.

James took another sip and looked at his captain. "So you're going to go with them without bandages this time?"

"No." Charles replied decisively, "I went to the place where I lost my arm this time. As you know, it is part of the god's body. There is no need to drag them into the water."

"But captain, they are your crew members, and it is their duty to fight and explore with you. Although they didn't say it, everyone feels that you are alienating them."

Seeing that Charles didn't answer, James continued to ask: "Captain, what is your purpose this time? Can you tell us? Although as a subordinate, I shouldn't interfere with your judgment, but the things you have done during this period are really serious. Too strange."

Charles raised his glass and nibbled on his glass, "First of all, James, you are not my subordinate, you are my friend and my companion."

Hearing this, James' heart was a little touched, and he recalled the years when he and the captain exchanged their lives for money on the sea.

"Secondly, James, remember when I asked you about your wish? You said that Anna was a threat to Hope Island, and now the threat has been lifted."

"So you're going to—"

"I intend to give an answer that satisfies everyone." Charles put down the glass, grabbed Lily in the air and stroked it gently.

"Anna is indeed going too far. If I'm the only one, I don't care. No matter what she does, I will go with her. But Hope Island can't, because there are still you on Hope Island."

"You are my companions and my friends. The crew of the Narwhal has died enough. I don't want any more accidents."

James listened silently. He had never heard these words from the captain. In fact, during the exploration process, in order to maintain his prestige, he had always given strict orders to the crew.

"For so many years, we have spent far more time on that tens of meters long boat than on the ground. To me, you are really no different from my family."

Charles said this, looking down at the flat floor.

"A lot of people died along the way, and my heart hurts, but in order to find the Land of Light, to save Earthsea, and to defeat the Foundation, we have to persevere."

"But it's different now. There is no threat to force us to leave. You can live a good life without taking any more risks. I am really relieved about this. All these years of hard work have not been in vain." Charles said in a rare way After talking a lot, the two sat silently holding wine glasses.

At this moment, a familiar voice came from behind, "What about you?"

The bandage led the others to walk to Charles from the back door of the Governor's Mansion, "We are all very satisfied now. What about you. As the captain of the Narwhal, you have now. Got what you want."

Charles took a deep breath, then sighed slowly, and continued to look at the ground in silence.

Somewhat excited, Dipper knelt down on one knee beside Charles, shaking Charles' arm with his webbed hand, "Captain, let us go this time!! Whatever you have to do, let us help you! We know It's dangerous there, but we're not afraid of death,"
