NOVEL NEXT Chapter 80
Chapter 80 : Silent Village
On the golden beach, children grabbed the sand on the ground to chase and play, young men and women cuddling each other under the coconut trees, adult men and women looming in the sea, enjoying the coolness of the sea.
The waves beat lightly on the beach, and the sea breeze slowly blows through, making you happy and contented.
The relaxing and comfortable beach adds a lot of joy to this paradise-like island.
The warship, the dark purple warship was docked next to a reef on the edge of the beach. Ximen Qin, who was dressed in a casual short outfit and a justice coat, leaped lightly, jumped off the warship and landed directly on the beach.
Behind him is Hina, who is also in casual shorts and a coat of justice, floating lightly by her side. Colombia is watching the playful children on the bow with envy and urgency, like an elegant gentleman walking down a wooden ladder.
“This is Jamaica. It’s really a nice atmosphere. The sniper’s hometown is very beautiful.” Ximen Qin covered his forehead with one hand and looked at it. From the atmosphere on the beach, I can judge the atmosphere and customs here.
Ximen Qin turned his head and shouted at the soldiers on the warship: “Boys, the warship is yours for these three days. Let’s have fun!”
“Oh~! Have a banquet!” “Where’s the wine? Bring the wine up!”
The soldiers were happy, and the banquet is still far away for them. Compared with the existence of pirates, they have more discipline, and basically there will be no officer willing to let these soldiers revel.
Ximen Qin’s idea is different. Since they are going to stop here for a few days, let them relax. Why are they so rigid?
“Dear Mr. Captain, please allow me to chat with a few friends.” Columbia came over, but his eyes fell on the men and women under the coconut tree.
The men and women under the coconut tree were also looking at them. For this island, warships are really rare, and it may not be possible to see a warship arrive in a few years.
Ximen Qin has the same eyebrows, oh, dare you to meet your old friends just after getting off the boat?
“Go, let’s rest and rest here, just wait for you.” As he said, he walked to the side of the coconut tree, where there are also beach chairs placed, which is really a pleasant place for both body and mind.
Columbia smiled and nodded, then walked towards the men and women.
“Ivan Harmon, Chrissy Kitchenman, Nehy Akroyd, Bertrand Rainer, long time no see.”
Columbia walked over, his expression slightly excited. The few people he called their names stood up at the same time and exclaimed, “Colombia!”
Columbia smiled slightly and nodded again and again. “It’s me, I’m finally back.”
“You kid…”
…
Several people talked for two full hours before they stopped. It was noon, and it was time for dinner.
“Dear Mr. Captain, please come with me to eat at home.” When he came back, Columbia’s face still had obvious joy.
Ximen Qin nodded and said, “Then go.”
The village is a little bit away from the beach, and it takes about half an hour to reach it on foot. According to Columbia, this is a prosperous village. However……
Walking on the road, Ximen Qin’s face became more and more weird. Is this the so-called prosperous village? Why doesn’t it look like it?
Although there are no buildings like ruined walls, but the number of people is too small, right? The street vendors close their stalls early, and the doors of each house are closed. What do these mean?
“Colombia, what’s the situation?”
Columbia, he also frowned and shook his head slightly, “I don’t know. It used to be very prosperous. Although the village is relatively small, but they all know each other, it wouldn’t be the case.”
It’s weird, full of weirdness everywhere, in stark contrast with the quiet and relaxing beach. Silence, here is a completely silent environment.
“Boom boom boom!”
Colombia couldn’t figure out the key, and went straight to a nearby house and knocked directly on the door. “Uncle Chiba Hui, Uncle Chiba Hui, I am Colombia, are you at home?”
After a while, someone from inside finally came out to respond. The wooden door was pushed open by a gap, and a middle-aged man observed the situation outside through the gap in the door.
“Yeah, it’s really Colombia, boy, you are finally back.”
After confirming the people outside, the middle-aged man inside opened the door directly with surprise in his expression.
Chiba Hui, a middle-aged man who looks a little thin and about 1.7 meters tall.
“Uncle Hui, long time no see. What’s wrong with the village? Why does it look weird?”
Straightforward, Colombia directly asked about the situation here.
Speaking of this matter, the face of Uncle Hui in front of him changed in an instant, and he looked a little weird, with a little sigh and panic in his expression.
“Hey, it’s still not the ghost of the bandits. In the past few years, they have acted more and more frequently, constantly scraping the resources of the village. Now not many people dare to go out at night.”
“Bandits?” Ximen Qin at the back was puzzled when he heard these words. Isn’t this an unfamiliar island? How can there be bandits?
“Are these two?” Uncle Hui saw the two behind him clearly, and looked a little surprised at the justice coats on them.
“Uncle Hui, these are my two partners, Ximen Qin Rear Admiral, Colonel Hina.”
“Marine?”
Chiba Hui’s eyes lit up, and he continued: “Colombia, you can go home and take a look. The bandit has just been here. It seems to be in the area of your house. You can go and take a look.”
What? ! !
Colombia’s heart beat, the bandit appeared again? Still in the direction of your own home? An uneasy faintly surrounds him.
“Uncle Hui, I’m really sorry, I have time to have a good chat with you.” Columbia reincarnated quickly after saying a word and ran towards his home.
Ximen Qin and the two naturally followed quickly. Has the bandit been here just now? It seems that many unexpected things have happened here in the past few years since Colombia left.
After running for ten minutes, the scenery on the road changed a little, but it was a bad change. There are fewer and fewer houses on both sides of the street, and the surrounding buildings look a little run-down. Some people sit in front of their houses and sigh, while some cry.
Uneasy, strong uneasiness. The trio’s complexion changed suddenly, and their speed instantly increased.
