Be a Human Again From Conan Chapter 330

  Chapter 330 The Duties of a Sheriff (2 in 1)

   "Boss Hollow!"

  At the door of the village chief's house, a young man with a well-proportioned face whose overall beauty was ruined by a sharp chin greeted Ji Xing loudly.

  His name is Abei, and he is one of the seven guards under Ji Xing's command. He used to be a little hooligan who idled around all day and did nothing good.

   Now he is also the most obedient guard under Ji Xing's command who admires him most, commonly known as the dog leg.

   "Abe, what's the situation now?"

   "Uh, the girl who was swept up by the waves hasn't woken up yet." Abe graciously opened the door for Ji Xing.

  "Aunt Kirsty is taking care of her...The village chief, I, Boss Hollow, are here!"

  The head of Xiaochao Village is 50 years old this year. He is a man with a height of only 1.5 meters.

   "Village Chief." Ji Xing greeted, and he also nodded to Ji Xing: "Come on, Holo."

   Soon, Ji Xing saw the girl who was swept ashore by the sea. He should be only fifteen or sixteen years old, with black hair with a tinge of red, and a well-behaved face with a touch of paleness soaked in seawater, a look that I feel pity for.

  The clothes on her body have been changed by Aunt Kirsty, and she is currently covered with a thick quilt.

  The village head gently lifted the quilt, Ji Xing immediately knew why he was called here, and Abe let out a surprised cry: "Chain?!"

  I saw a thick and heavy chain tightly bound on the girl's fair and delicate ankles, which is usually used to restrain criminals!

The village chief took a sip of his pipe and said, "That boy Moss is clever. When he found the chain, he wrapped the child with his coat, and few people saw it. But now... how to arrange this child, I am a little uncertain Idea, Hollow."

  Ji Xing understood the village chief's concern. Wearing chains on her feet meant that her being washed ashore by sea water was not a simple shipwreck or pirate attack.

"How else can I arrange it?" Aunt Kirsty, who was wiping the girl's forehead with a hot towel, turned her head in dissatisfaction: "When you come to Xiaochao Village, you are from Xiaochao Village. Hurry up and find someone to untie the chain, this child's ankle It's almost swollen!"

  The village head shook his head helplessly. He naturally felt that such a little girl could not be a pirate prisoner, and felt that she was quite pitiful, but as the village head, he had to consider the safety of the entire village.

Ji Xing glanced at the girl's slightly tensed little feet, saw the sesoaked little toes parted in an unnatural arc, smiled and said: "Let's ask her about her background first." .Little sister, this is Xiaochao Village on Tidal Island, I am Holo, the sheriff of the village, I am not a bad person, don't pretend to be unconscious."

   Pretending to be in a coma? Several people looked over unexpectedly, and found that the girl's eyelashes were trembling, she opened her eyes, and said nervously, "I... just woke up."

  Aunt Kirsty didn't care, and smiled all over her face: "Just wake up, come, drink a bowl of hot water."

  She helped the girl to sit up, and fed it with a bowl of warm water. The girl's face added a bit of blood, her eyes rolled, and she looked at several people.

   Except for Abe, they all seem like good people.

  Especially the tall and upright Ji Xing, who gave people a sense of security, just like his father.

  So there was silence for a while, and she said: "My name is Natalia, Natalia Nakpushit, and I am the daughter of the king of the Kingdom of Sitzkeal."

  Princess again? Ji Xing raised his eyebrows, are all princesses in this world so miserable?

   "King's daughter...princess?!"

   "Kingdom of Sitzkeal?" The village chief is more knowledgeable: "Not far from Tidal Island, is that the country on Krajiana Island that has been in civil war for years?"

"Yeah." Natalia's eyes were red: "Since I can remember, the kingdom has been fighting. Years of wars have made the people of the kingdom miserable, and the population has been decreasing. The evil rebel army refused to stop. A few days ago, they captured the capital and killed...killed my father."

   "God...don't cry, kid." Aunt Kirsty wiped her cheek lightly: "So you were captured by the rebels? They..."

"They want to send me to the auction house in the Chambord Islands and sell me as a slave." Natalia continued: "It was Uncle Gianluca who rescued me desperately. When we fled at sea, our boat Turn it over, wake up again, I'm here, and I don't know Uncle Gianluca..."

  Is it the population auction house of Chambord Islands? Ji Xing heard a familiar name, and behind him was the slave auction site of Qibuhai Doflamingo!

  As for that Gianluca, it is probably more than auspicious. It is a rare and lucky thing to capsize in the vast sea and be washed ashore.

A few people knew it well, and Aunt Kirsty yelled: "These bastards! Village chief, go to the locksmith to open the little princess's chains. Little princess, you will live in our Xiaochao Village for this period of time, and you will have to live in Xiaochao Village later. Let's talk about other places, if not, you can treat this place as your home!”

  The village head took a deep breath on his cigarette, and without moving, he exchanged a glance with Ji Xing.

"I have to discuss this matter with the mayor." He said, "Son, don't blame me for speaking harshly. Since the rebel army has captured the capital and killed the king, they are now the actual state of the Kingdom of Sitzkeal." Ruler..."

"No." Natalia shook her head and said with tears: "The population of the kingdom has been wiped out. The Kingdom of Sitzkeal... no longer exists. The evil rebel army looted all the property of the kingdom, killed My brother...will sell me, maybe he will become a pirate."

   "The Kingdom of Sitzkeal... Didn't it have a population of more than 100,000 before? It was completely destroyed?" The village head was shocked: "War..."

   But in this way, Natalia will not be involved in any bigger troubles. It's just that a group of pirates want to catch her and sell her. Maybe you can contact the Navy's G19 base?

He exchanged glances with Ji Xing again, and suddenly heard someone shouting outside: "It's not good! Village chief! A boat just arrived at the port, and dozens of men with knives got off the boat! Ask if we've seen a girl with a streak of red in her hair!"

  Natalia shrank under the quilt in an instant, and looked at the people in front of her with a pale face: "Yes, it is the rebel army, they are chasing them! I..."

   Being able to be washed to the island by the waves, it is obvious that the place where they capsized is not far from the island. If the rebel army has been falling far away, it is not surprising to guess that Natalia may be on the tidal island.

   "Dozens of people?" Abbe swallowed a mouthful of saliva: "Boss Hollow, what should we do? It seems too late to notify the navy!"

   "The sheriff of Xiaochao Village, naturally wants to protect the safety of the village." Ji Xing had already walked out, and he pulled out his waist knife and held it in his hand.

   "Holo!" The village chief was surprised: "There are too many of them, you..."

   dala—

  The village chief was interrupted by the sound of a collision of iron chains, making him turn his head, and saw that the chain ring on Natalia's ankle suddenly broke in two and fell off!

   "This..." He glanced blankly at Kirsty, and Natalia's small face was also stunned.

   Was cut off by that... just now?

   Didn't see clearly, and isn't this an iron lock?

  Abe was stunned for two seconds, raised his legs and chased outside, and said with a snap of his tongue: "Cool~~~~~ Boss Hollow, how did you do it?! I have never seen you use a knife before!"

   "Then next time you cause trouble again, I'll kill you with a knife." Ji Xing replied casually, looking towards the coast, catching perception with knowledge and knowledge, stepping hard with both feet, and his figure disappeared instantly.

  On the other side, more than forty rebel fighters are also rushing to the village chief's house.

   There are many people who know about Natalia who was washed ashore by the waves, and we can't expect everyone to keep her a secret, especially in the face of some evil spirits.

  During more than ten years of war, the royal army and the rebel army were almost wiped out. None of the surviving rebel troops had a hundred or eighty lives, and they were much more ferocious than ordinary pirates.

  The villagers who saw them turned pale and stepped aside. The leader of the rebel army, who was more than two meters tall and strong, walked in the center of the road as if inspecting his own territory.

  The deputy leader next to him said in a low voice: "Boss, you are lucky, you found our little princess so easily. It seems that there is no need to loot this village to make up for our loss?"

   "Why not?" The leader snorted, "Why not..."

   poof—

"want?"

  Subtle noises interrupted his words, and the leader of the rebel army rubbed his neck in a daze, raised his hand, and his eyes were also blood red.

   "Ho...ho..."

   After two gasps of difficulty, he fell dead!

   "Boss?!"

"Ah—" The screams of the rebel army echoed with the panic of the villagers, and Ji Xing's calm and powerful voice suppressed everything: "Everyone in Xiaochao Village, this is Sheriff Holo! Don't panic, everyone, go home Wait, I will deal with all the villains who invaded the village!"

   "Bastard! Did you do it?!" The rebels looked at Ji Xing ahead of the road.

   "Damn! Kill him!"

  Ji Xing put the knife back into its sheath, and punched him.

  Boom boom boom—

"ah-"

   People fly with their swords up!

These rebels who have experienced many battles are at most at the level of pirates with a bounty of one million. To Ji Xing, they are no different from ordinary people. One punch a child, and soon there are only unconscious and moaning on the ground in front of him. of.

  The deputy leader of the rebel army struggled hard: "Damn... you, who are you?!"

   "Didn't you say that? I am Huo Luo, the sheriff of Xiaochao Village." Ji Xing said.

   "What is a magistrate...Ah! It's broken! It's broken!"

   "Now I should ask you." Ji Xing said.

For him, the arrest of the princess by the rebel army is nothing to worry about. It is impossible for him to watch the little girl under the age of 16 being taken away and sold into slavery. The condition of "within one's power", not to mention that these guys in front of them are going to ransack Xiaochao Village, it is necessary to reveal a bit of strength.

  The troublesome thing is how to deal with the follow-up.

  Many things affect the whole body.

   Sure enough, the deputy leader of the rebel army was not a tough one. Under the interrogation of the knife holder, he quickly explained what Ji Xing wanted to know.

  Sitzkeal was indeed empty, and the victorious rebel army only had a few hundred people left. It was meaningless to occupy an empty shell country. They wanted to take the wealth of the kingdom and choose a good place.

  Choose to attach to the nobles of the Chambord Islands!

  The little princess is one of their stepping stones because of her appearance and identity. There are not many slaves who have real princess status in the population auction house, and they can be sold at a price close to that of a devil fruit!

   Naturally, try to catch it back.

   "Nobles of Chambord...slave auction..."

   When Ji Xing was interrogating the deputy leader of the rebel army, he heard that there was no movement here, and many villagers carefully poked their heads out of the house, looking at the figure standing in the center in shock.

  Knowing that the new sheriff can fight, but is he so capable? This is simply... stronger than many navies, right?

  Abe's loud voice rang again: "It's amazing~ Boss Hollow! You teach me how to fight!"

  Ji Xing waved his hand: "I'll talk about it later. Deal with this side first, and tie people up with a rope!"

   After setting up the rebel army, Ji Xing returned to the village head, who was also surprised: "Holo, when did you become so powerful?"

Ji Xing smiled and said: "As the village's security officer, it is my responsibility to protect the safety of the village. I cannot rely on the navy all the time. I have been working hard when everyone can't see me, and now I have achieved some success. .”

  The village chief only believes in half, and there are many people who work hard. Who can fight like you?

  He rejoiced: "Fortunately, there is you. These rebels were arrested by you, and the little princess and Xiaochao Village are safe..."

"It's not over yet, village chief." Ji Xing said, "There are 76 rebels on the side of Hitzkeal, including the number three rebels. Because they are guarded against each other, more than half of the property they plundered On the ship that came, and before going to the island, the two parties also talked through the phone, knowing that we are here.

   This is the harvest of more than ten years of war. If they have not contacted for a long time, they will definitely make some moves and come to investigate. There is no reason to guard against thieves for a thousand days, so I plan to take the initiative. "

   "Master, take the initiative to attack?"

  Ji Xing smiled: "As the security officer of Xiaochao Village, it is also my duty to take the initiative to go out to eliminate some hidden safety hazards for Xiaochao Village."

  Village Chief: "...?"

   A few hours later.

  The captured rebel soldiers sailed back under the coercion of Ji Xing, and there were two new passengers on board, Ji Xing and Abbe.

  Abe stood on the deck, his face turned pale: "Boss, Boss, are you really all right?"

   "Don't follow if you're afraid, I still have to take care of you." Ji Xing said with a smile.

   "No, no, not afraid! Boss Hollow, you are so powerful, I am not afraid!" Abe said loudly.

   "Very good, very energetic."

  There is nothing to worry about. The rebel army has fought for more than ten years, and when they are about to enjoy the fruits of victory, they have no determination to go all out.

What's more, the rebels were still counting on the remaining 70 or so brothers to create some miracles for them. The only thing that brought trouble was the elusive weather on the great route. Under Ji Xing's supervision, they arrived at their destination two days later. .

  Hitzkeal Kingdom, former site.

As a result, the rebels were desperate. The 70-odd brothers rushed to the street faster than their 40-odd brothers. The number three leader of the rebel army was an idiot when he was stepped on by Ji Xing for interrogation. Didn't you go to catch the little princess? ? What does this bring back?

  Abe retched for a long time in the **** smell, and looked at Ji Xing with doubled respect: "Boss! Let's solve it completely this time!"

"No." Ji Xing said: "Didn't you hear what he said? Two days later, there will be a slave catcher team to pick them up, but they haven't received anything by then, and the promised property is gone. Do you think they will?" Will check?"

  Abe was taken aback, what do you mean?

   "For the safety of Xiaochao Village, all factors of instability must be eliminated." Ji Xing patted him on the shoulder: "This is the responsibility of the sheriff."

"…ah?"

  Two days later, Abe crouched in the distance, watching Ji Xing cut down the soldiers on the slave ship with two knives, and put the knife on the captain's neck.

  The captain cursed at first, his words were full of threats, he was slapped a few times before he was honest, and was asked some questions by Ji Xing.

  Abe carefully approached: "Boss? Can we go home?"

  Ji Xing sighed: "Not yet. This is just a slave hunting team, and there is a big ship waiting for cargo at the port of Pereira Island. They know the ship's target, and they may be found."

   "Then, the boss, we..."

   Abbe has expected.

  Ji Xing nodded: "For the sake of the safety of Xiaochao Village, we have to get rid of that slave ship first. This is my responsibility as a security officer."

   Three days later, the port of Pereira Island.

  The luxurious big ship was full of **** smell, Ji Xing, who had been disguised, unlocked the cages one by one, and released the tearful, unbelievable slaves, saying: "You are free."

   "Wow—"

  Amidst the noise, the bruised men, women, children, and all races were excited.

  Some people burst into tears instantly, and some people knelt on their knees: "Benefactor! Please let me follow you..."

"Get out!" Ji Xing waved his hand and said, "I'm just here to grab some money and save a few people. Wherever you want to go, it's none of my business if you get caught again, and it doesn't matter if you confess me. Anyway, let's say goodbye today. Hope to never see you again!"

  After saying that, he jumped into the water with the big bag in his hand, and disappeared from the sight of these people who almost became slaves after hitting the waves a few times.

  Do good deeds without leaving names.

  After swimming a few kilometers, he turned over and boarded a small boat. Abe, who was waiting on it, almost fell into the water in fright.

   "Boss, boss, let's..."

   "Going home, Xiaochao Village. You row to the west port, and our passenger boat will go back."

   "Yes, can you go home now?"

"Well." Ji Xing said: "The person in charge of that slave ship reported a lot of things, and the slave auction house couldn't imagine why they were attacked. The matter of the little princess is completely resolved, and Xiaochao Village is safe. I am a sheriff. After fulfilling your duties, you can naturally go back."

  Abe glanced at the wet package in Ji Xing's hand secretly, Boss, I don't study much, don't lie to me, didn't we really come out to rob? The sheriff of Xiaochao Village has so many responsibilities? There are less than 10,000 people in our village, how many islands can the sheriff take care of? !

Ji Xing leaned lightly on the package, asked Abei to row the boat, and explained casually: "Think about it, if we don't go to the Kingdom of Hitzkeal, what will the rest of the rebel army do? Will they take that boat with them?" The slave team went to Xiaochao Village to find someone?"

"…should be?"

"Then I still have to kill them, I can't hand over the little princess, right?" Ji Xing said: "Then the big slave boat here will know Xiaochao Village, and will report to the superiors, and then come again, right?"

   Abbe blinked, as if it made sense?

"So it's better to take the initiative, otherwise our Xiaochao Village may face endless troubles." Ji Xing said with a smile: "It's not easy to be a sheriff. In this world, if you want to protect a village and save a person, It's hard!"

  Actually, he wasn't fooling around. It was indeed the truth. When Ji Xing protected the little princess and killed the leader of the rebel army, troubles would follow.

When it comes to the issue of slave auctions, after Ji Xing kills the slave merchants, the cadres of the Don Quixote family may come to visit again. Unless Ji Xing is gone, if the younger ones are beaten and the older ones are beaten, they may have to deal with many in the end. flamenco.

  Doflamingo is not troublesome, but getting rid of Doflamingo is a big trouble for Ji Xing now, so... let him live first!

  New World, Dressrosa.

  The blond man in a pink coat with cropped trousers and sunglasses listened to the voice from the phone bug expressionlessly, not at all happy that he escaped with his life.

   After a long time, he laughed '咈咈咈咈咈': "It seems that I took over the business of the slave auction house, which made some guys dissatisfied.

   Released all the slaves, took away a devil fruit and a famous knife? The two finale treasures... It seems that the next auction will be postponed, check those guys for me. "

  A few days later, Doflamingo frowned in confusion: "Huh? Neither?"

what happened? No clues?

  Who else have I offended?

at the same time.

  Hitzkeal Kingdom, former site.

  Among the broken walls, a man was surrounded by a group of baboons holding knives.

   "Oh? The kingdom has died, and humans have withered. Are you baboons who can use human weapons now the masters of this dilapidated kingdom? Interesting."

  The hawk-like eyes glanced around, and the baboons all trembled, and their fear receded!

  The man wearing a black top hat and carrying a crossed black knife continued to walk deep into the kingdom.

   Ready-made buildings and empty cities seem to be used to settle down and practice swords? Take another look.

   Tidal Island, Harbor.

  Ji Xing got off the boat with a package on his back, stretched out while looking at the peaceful Xiaochao Village.

   "After half a month, I finally came back."

   "This peace... is not easy to come by."

   Being a sheriff is hard work.

   5k8, yin yin yin yin yin yin yin.
