Chapter: 140
The two-wheeled carriage drove briskly across the street and entered the East District.
Anna looked anxiously, expectantly, and fearfully at the fast-moving street outside the window. Not long after, the toy windmill jumped into her eyes.
After getting out of the carriage, she didn't care about her appearance, and almost staggered to the door and rang the doorbell.
The door creaked open, and Anna saw a blond young man in a black formal suit. He had a haggard face, cheerful eyes, and a nose like an eagle's beak.
"I thought I would miss you today." Joyce said with a smile.
"...The steam is on, you are really back!" Anna rubbed her eyes and shouted in surprise and joy.
What the fortune teller said was true!
No, that's a real fortune teller!
Simply amazing!
Thoughts were surging and boiling, Anna held back her tears, rushed over, and gave her fianc� a warm hug.
Outside the gray-blue house, the two quietly embraced each other, and the toy windmill turned slowly, all the hardships seemed to be gone.
In the rather spacious living room, Anna and Joyce, who had finished embracing, were sitting on different sofas, separated by the woman's parents.
Joyce sighed with satisfaction: "Steam is on, how lucky I am to be able to come back alive and see Anna again."
"My poor Joyce, what happened to you?" Anna couldn't bear it anymore, and asked with concern.
Joyce glanced at his fianc�e, and his expression became heavy: "I still feel scared to this day, and I always wake up from my dreams again and again. Five days after the Clover left Kaiser Harbor, we encountered pirates, terrible pirates, the only one Thankfully, their leader is called Nast."
"The great pirate who calls himself the 'King of the Five Seas'?" Anna's father, Mr. Wayne, asked in surprise.
Although Joyce had come to visit half an hour ago, he never mentioned in detail what happened to him. He was timid, anxious and uneasy. It wasn't until Anna came back and gave him a hug that he seemed to have really gotten out of his misfortune.
"Yes, 'King of the Five Seas' Nast claimed to be a descendant of the Solomon Empire, and he strictly abides by the virtue of not killing prisoners. Because of this, we were only robbed of money and did not lose our lives. His men even Leave enough food for us." Joyce recalled what happened during this period.
His body gradually trembled, but he still insisted on describing the deepest and deepest nightmare: "I lost not too much property. I thought the bad luck was over, but during the subsequent voyage, the Clover Fierce internal strife broke out among the passengers and crew, from disputes, to brawls, to pulling out revolvers, raising straight swords, and killing each other... In those few days, my sight was full of blood, and people around me fell down one after another. Come on, with eyes that never close, splashing limbs, hearts and intestines all over the floor."
"We who don't want to be beasts, that is, the rational part, have no place to hide, no way to escape, surrounded by dark blue waves, and an ocean with no limit... Some people cry bitterly, some beg for mercy, and some sell their bodies, but they His head is still hanging from the mast."
"Anna, I was full of despair at the time, thinking that I would never see you again. Fortunately, in such a nightmare, heroes still appeared. Mr. Captain led us to hide in the solid lower layer, relying on the clean water and food prepared in advance , reached the limit of those crazy guys, and Mr. Tris encouraged us to take the lead bravely and lead us to attack the group of murderers..."
"After a bloody battle that I will never forget, we survived, but the Clover also deviated from the course, and the sailors were only one-third of the original."
...
When talking about the most terrifying and darkest side of the human heart, Joyce couldn't help but recall the "hero", the hero who called himself Triss, he had a round, kind face, a shy personality, like a girl, and always liked Staying in the corner, only those who are very familiar with him can understand what a talkative person he is.
But it was such an inconspicuous boy who stood firmly in front of everyone in the worst and most desperate times.
"Oh, the steam is on, my poor Joyce, what a heart-wrenching experience you have had, thank God, worship God, He keeps us from being separated." Tears were swirling in Anna's eyes, and they kept pouring on her chest. Point out the triangular holy symbol of steam and machinery.
Joyce showed a slightly pale smile: "This is the reward of our piety. The Clover went through storms, went through a voyage, and passed the test again and again, and finally arrived at Enmat Port."
"Because there was such a serious bloody incident on the ship, we survivors were controlled by the police and interrogated separately. We didn't have the opportunity to send a telegram to our family to report the situation. When everything was over, that is, this morning, I immediately asked a friend to borrow a sum of money. Come back on the steam train, thank God, let me set foot on the land of Tingen again, let me see you again."
Having said that, he looked at his fiancee with some doubts: "Anna, when you saw me, I could feel your joy and surprise, but what I couldn't understand was why you rushed towards me so excitedly after you got off the carriage. The door, heh, I originally planned to give you a huge surprise."
Looking back on what happened before, Anna still couldn't believe it and said: "There is nothing to hide, Joyce, because I was worried about you, I went to the only divination club in Tingen City today for divination, and that fortune teller, no, The soothsayer told me, he said, that your fianc� has returned, and is in the house with the toy windmill."
