First Mate Bandage, Second Mate Kenona, Sailor Deep, Chief Engineer James, Gunner Lily, Chef Frey, Sailor Odrick, Sailor Linda, Ship Doctor Rasto, and finally Captain Charles.
The crew of the Narwhal regrouped in the conference hall of the Governor's Mansion on Hope Island.
Charles with a smile looked at the changed crew before him.
Dip is taller, and has changed from a young boy to a strong young man. Set off in a black uniform, he is even a little handsome.
The simple and honest disappeared from James's face, and two shallow decrees made him add a touch of majesty.
The doctor was getting older, with sporadic age spots on his scarred face.
Krona has gained weight a few laps, and a new chin has accumulated on his chin.
If there is not much change, it is the bandage, Lily and the vampire Odrick.
"Mr. Charles, where have you been in these three years? I miss you so much. I" Lily jumped in front of Charles and asked with her head up.
Charles did not answer directly, but instead asked with the bright yellow hair on his body: "How is it dyed like this?"
"It looks so good, I can dye it in other colors, white is not good." Lily rubbed Charles' palm with her furry head.
Charles turned his head to look at the bandage with no mood swings. He knew that Hope Island had no disturbances, and he relied entirely on his silent companion.
Such a living island is completely a big piece of fat in the Earth Sea. If no one is shaking, this island would have long been a different master.
"Thank you for the past three years."
"It's nothing... the rules of the sea... the captain... isn't... the chief mate automatically takes over... all the duties of the captain..." the bandage said slowly.
Charles didn't say anything to stretch his hand over, and his bandaged right hand stretched out and slapped it hard, everything is silent.
Just as James was about to speak, Leonardo, who stood by, said with a touch of flattery on his face
"Captain, you finally came back. No one on the island probably knows you. I propose to hold a banquet first. Announcing your return, what do you think?"
Charles looked unexpectedly at the Minister of Finance of Hope Island in front of him.
The little liar back then did not expect to be so qualified for the position of Minister of Finance. "Anything, do as you say."
Leonardo took a step back with interest, and did not participate in other people's retelling. He knew that compared to these crew members who lived and died with the captain, no matter how hard he worked, he would always be an outsider.
If you want to gain the trust of the Governor, you have to take it step by step.
Just as the other crew members were talking about Charles, a rush of tapping interrupted the harmonious atmosphere in the conference room, when the steel prosthetic limbs hit the wooden tabletop.
"Hey hey hey, you can do anything after you want to go back to the past, first solve my problem before talking."
It was the ship doctor Rasto who was talking, his temper was as stinky as before, and there was no joy on his face for Charles's return.
The old man took out something from his arms and slid it towards Charles along the smooth tabletop.
When Charles picked up the thing, his face was suddenly moved. It was his cell phone, and it was still a cell phone with full power.
A finger across the screen, the anime screensaver opened, and seeing the six decoded blanks appeared on it, Charles was stunned for a while. After 12 years, he suddenly forgot the unlock password.
"Don't think about it, it's 588134, it's in your diary," the doctor said with a hint of disgust.
A glance at him, Charles entered the password, and a familiar and unfamiliar interface appeared in front of him.
After hesitating for a moment, Charles clicked on the video icon. The content inside is pitiful, except for a short section of cat and mouse animation used to test the performance of the mobile phone, there are only two small videos of more than ten seconds.
He opened the first paragraph. It was recorded in a mobile phone shop when he bought a new phone. The shop was very noisy. The camera flashed by, and Charles saw his youthful self in the launching mirror.
A smile appeared on Charles's face. "Unexpectedly, you actually rushed into the phone, how did you do it?"
"Professor Smith in England helped me a lot. Electricity is a trivial matter. The number of your black mirror is the big trouble. I have been looking for it for more than two years to understand."
"Thank you." Charles handed the video of the cat and mouse to Lily, raising his head to look at the doctor.
"You asked me not just about this phone, right? Is there anything important?"
The doctor limped over, snatched the phone from Lily, and quickly opened the photo album to show the daily photos.
Trembling eyes pressed tightly against Charles. "Where is this place? Is it a place of light?"
Charles smiled. "Didn't I tell you that I came to the light place? Why do you still ask?"
"Since you said that the picture inside is a place of light, what is on the top of our cave? I have been there. The environment above is completely different from the one in your photo."
"I want to know this question too. If I really knew everything, I wouldn't have jumped into the sea three years ago." Charles said this very calmly.
The doctor is obviously not very satisfied with Charles's answer. "I don't ask you so much, I'll just ask you, do you want to go out to sea to continue searching for a place of light?"
Seeing the doctor's expression, Charles seemed to think of something, "Do you think the Bright Land can unlock the clues to your things?"
What makes the doctor so concerned, UU reading www.uukanshu.com is probably his thick black tablet.
The doctor quickly swiped his finger and clicked on a picture. It was a selfie taken by Gao Suling on the street with his mobile phone outside the community.
With zooming in quickly, Charles saw behind his sister's beautiful face, and the next door Uncle Liu was sitting under the shade of a tree, playing chess on the tablet given to him by his daughter.
"You have that thing in your place, right? Just go there to fix my thing."
"Smith of the Isle of England can charge my phone, but can't fix your thing?"
"No, he said something is broken in it."
Charles was not surprised by this answer, God knows when that thing was produced.
"Indeed, as long as you can go back to the surface and repair an outdated slab, there is still no problem at all," Are you still attached to this? "
"I am a doctor, and I know that I cannot live long. Now my only wish is to know what my father wants me to keep and answer my questions. Your current identity is Governor Charles, or a one-man Captain of the Whale Charles?"
The atmosphere in the hall became a little more solemn, and the second officer next to Kenona swallowed a little nervously.
"I'm Charles the Narwhal Captain. I told you that that place is my home. I will go back someday."
As soon as Charles spoke, various expressions appeared on the faces of the crew.
An ugly smile appeared on the doctor’s face. He slapped the phone on Charles’s hand,
Very well, I’m going to sort things out. As long as I survive one day, I will be the ship doctor on your ship.
After the doctor finished speaking, he completely ignored the others and limped and walked outside the door.
