Movie World I Am A King
Chapter 273 Charlie with an Amazing Premonition
Charlie stood at the stern of the Lucky, looking in the direction of Huaguo worriedly.
Just the morning before yesterday, a Dutch businessman told him that some of their British sailors were abused and crucified like a crucified Christ at the door of a mansion in the East City. This immediately gave Charlie an ominous premonition...
After sending his secretary to check, he confirmed that the sailors who were crucified were the gang he sent to attack King An...~
Charlie, who had a bad premonition, did not delay at all, nor was he superstitious about the less than 500 Indian mercenaries in the British merchant house. He immediately boarded a merchant ship bound for England without hesitation. There were more than 800 sailors who attacked Zhou Ye, and although they were not very disciplined, in terms of combat effectiveness, they were much stronger than those Ah San-soldiers.
Those more than 800 sailors were captured alive by Zhou Ye, not to mention the less than 500 Indian soldiers? Life is the most important thing in the world, and Charlie dare not put everything in his hope that he can live in Zhou Ye. Seeing the fate of those sailors, Charlie can almost imagine what kind of character Zhou Ye is, and he falls into his hands. Here, there is absolutely no way to please...
Charlie, who left in a hurry, even played tricks before leaving, deliberately making a big show that he was going back to India to handle errands.
Although this Lucky is indeed going to go back to the UK in the Indian Ocean, it will only resupply at a few ports, and then will rush back to the UK without stopping... If there are really pursuers behind, I am afraid it will be empty... …
But even so, Charlie is still restless these days, always feeling as if something is going to happen...
"Hey, Charlie, my friend, why are you standing here looking at the scenery so early in the morning..." A middle-aged man with gold-rimmed glasses and a slightly chubby figure came out of the cabin, came behind Charlie and smiled Jokingly said: "Let me see what you found?... There is nothing. Could it be that Charlie is reluctant to part with the gold-filled country in the east?"
"No, Captain Spindle, I just have some bad premonition!" Charlie shook his head and said, "I think that enemy may catch up!"
"Haha, Charlie, you underestimate my baby!" Captain Spindle said, patted the side of the ship vigorously, and said with a smile: "You must know that I overhauled my baby at the Ferguson shipyard at the beginning of this year, and now She doesn't have those nasty sea creatures on her body, and she is in her best state now!"
"Well..." Charlie looked at the Lucky, which was like a new ship, shrugged his shoulders and said, "At least she looks beautiful!"
Seeing that Charlie seemed a little uneasy, Spindle shouted loudly: "...Henry, tell our distinguished guest, what is the current speed?"
After about five minutes, a voice shouted: "The speed of the boat is nine knots..."
"Look, buddy, I'll just say it!" Spindu said proudly: "At this speed, if he wants to catch up with my baby, he's probably dreaming. It would be great if there was another gust of wind at this time ...we can reach ten or even twelve knots..."
"It's not bad!" Charlie nodded. Considering the speed of the Galen galleon, this speed is already the limit on this channel. He also knows that this situation is already a very good progress. But the feeling of impending disaster still lingers in his heart, lingering.
"I'll take a break first...see you at lunch later!" Charlie yawned and walked towards the captain's cabin, which was originally Spindle's room, but after Charlie came up, Spindle gave up the room to Charlie , I moved to the chief mate's room to rest.
"This poor guy..." Spindu looked at Charlie's haggard back, and said to himself, every successful businessman may not have a very high IQ, just a few, but his EQ must be very high, otherwise he will be judged by others. lie to death...
When Charlie boarded the boat in a hurry, Spindu could see that Charlie seemed to be escaping from something, and kept looking behind him, as if an invisible beast was chasing him.
Even though they have been out to sea for two days, and they are almost far away from Guangzhou, Charlie is still out of his mind. I really don't know what terrible thing happened to him, so that a high-ranking director of the East India Company so scared.
"May God bless this poor lamb!" Spindu said, crossing himself, and then yelled at his sailors. "Hurry up and drag the deck, you lazy bastards, I paid you to hire you, not to invite you to be masters on the ship!"
Time passed quickly, and during lunch, Charlie was still a little depressed. As soon as he closed his eyes, he heard the screams of the more than 800 sailors who were crucified. On a dead end... and he also witnessed their tragic end, how could this not scare Charlie.
Charlie hid in the captain's cabin, holding a bottle of rum in one hand, took a sip of wine, and muttered, "It wasn't my fault..."
As if this could counteract the resentment of those sailors' souls, he can barely sleep well now only with the help of alcohol anesthesia... because as soon as he closes his eyes, old Auston and the three of them will appear in front of him. The figure of blood...
Just when Charlie was slightly drunk, the door of the captain's cabin was suddenly opened from the outside, and Spindle's figure walked in.
"Hey, Charlie, wake up..." Spindu, who was full of excitement as soon as he entered the door, ran up to Charlie, put his hands on Charlie's shoulders, and shook him vigorously. "Go, come out with me..."
"What? No, Spindle, you know, I'm going to sleep..." Charlie just wanted to refuse, but Spindle forcefully dragged him out of the cabin and onto the deck.
At this moment, it was supposed to be an evening full of sunset clouds, but it turned into a dark night. The dark clouds in the sky were low, making people feel breathless... The strong winds made Charlie unable to open his eyes.
"Henry, what is the speed of the ship now?" Spindle shouted his second officer's name as soon as he got on the deck.
"Fourteen knots, Captain, it's like flying!"
"Look, Charlie, at this speed, we will be able to reach the Strait of Malacca soon!" Spindle said, looking seriously into Charlie's eyes, and said, "I don't know what you are avoiding, but I I want to tell you, my friend, at this speed, even if he is a god, he can't catch up with us!"
"Thank you... Spindu!" Charlie looked at the bulging sails that were chased by the strong wind, and said with some hesitation: "But my friend, if you continue like this, your baby will not be able to bear it!"
"I know my baby better than you!" Spindu waved his hand indifferently.
This is an emotional investment for him. He thinks that there is a saying in Huaguo that is really good.
Now he is going to be the one who will give charcoal to Charlie. He believes that with Charlie's status as a director of the East India Company, there is no obstacle that he can't overcome...
As long as Charlie gets through this period of low ebb, in the future, he will rely on his friendship to help Charlie escape, and the East India Company's orders should not be taken too easily.
Feeling the accelerated speed of the Lucky with the help of the wind, Charlie couldn't help but relax a lot, "There is no big problem now!!!"
At this moment, the watchman shouted overhead: "Behind us... there is something behind us..."
