"Oh, look at these wines, I seem to feel that they are waving to me eagerly!" Rubbing his hands together with a salivating look on his face, Captain Haddock smiled and said to Tintin: "Oh my God, I'm so happy. I like your new Chinese friend, I have a hunch that Guan Heng will be my best confidant and brother besides you!"
"Haha, as expected, you can use good wine to open the way, and you can make friends with Captain Haddock immediately. This is definitely a good idea that has been tried many times!" Guan Heng secretly laughed in his heart, and secretly made a "V" to Qin'er. The victory gesture made Qin'er purse her lips in amusement!
"Okay, Captain, please put the wine at the door first!" Ding Ding took the Captain's arm and said to him impatiently: "Go and see the gift I prepared for you. By the way, Guan Heng bought it first and handed it over. It’s a gift from me to you!”
"Oh? What on earth is it?" Captain Haddock couldn't help but be overcome with curiosity. He quickened his pace and entered the room with Ding Ding, Qin'er and Guan Heng!
"Look, this is definitely an unexpected gift, right?" Tintin pointed at the ship model and introduced to Haddock: "Guan Heng and I bought this from a stall in the old street market. After discussion, we decided to give it to You!"
"Wow, what a beautiful ship this is!" Captain Haddock couldn't help but admire it. However, when he took a closer look at it for a second time, he suddenly cried out: "Oh, what a hell!"
"What's wrong, captain?" Guan Heng asked from the side: "Is there something wrong with this ship model?"
"Quick! Come here, all of you!" Captain Haddock waved the three people to him. While he carefully inspected the appearance and structure of the ship, he asked: "Guan Heng, Ding Ding, where are you from?" Where did you find this model ship?”
"We saw it at a stall in the old street market!" Guan Heng said: "That's why Qin'er and I met Ding Ding. I told you just now, is there any problem with this?"
"Oh my god, it's so wonderful, so incredible!" Captain Haddock stared at the ship model for a long time, and couldn't help but murmured: "Who would believe it if they didn't see it with their own eyes?"
"Hey, Ding Ding!" Guan Heng quietly pulled the other party's sleeve, and then asked in a low voice: "The captain doesn't smell of alcohol, why are you talking nonsense now?"
"How would I know?" Tintin replied: "Maybe the captain is still hungover from last night!"
"Hey, you guys!" Haddock suddenly turned around and said to the three of them, "I'm very awake now!"
"Stop talking nonsense!" The captain hooked his fingers at the three people and said immediately: "Go to my house immediately. I have something to show you. By the way, I can also help Guan Heng and Qin'er find the landlady to rent a house! "
So four people and one dog hurried to Captain Haddock's apartment and greeted the landlady. Guan Heng and Qin'er got the room keys on the first floor and officially became the captain's neighbors.
Then they hurried upstairs to the captain's room, where a wall was dedicated to decoration and covered with paintings and photos of sea scenery.
"Everyone, come and take a look at this!" Captain Haddock led the three people to a huge oil painting: "Look at the characters on this painting!"
"This person is..." Guan Heng, Ding Ding and Qin'er looked at it intently and suddenly said in unison: "The person in the ancient sailor's costume in this painting is you, the captain, isn't it?"
It seems that everyone's guess is correct, because the oil painting shows a bearded man with a rough appearance. Except for his clothes and attire from the old era, the other parts are almost as if they were carved out of the same mold as the captain!
"But this oil painting seems to be quite old!" Guan Heng took a closer look and said after a few glances: "It doesn't look like a recent work!"
"Well, Guan Heng is right!" Captain Haddock introduced everyone: "This is one of my ancestors - Francis Haddock. He was born during the reign of Charles II!"
"Wow, then this painting has existed for a really long time!" Guan Heng shrugged and said, and he immediately asked Tintin: "Do you know the legend of Charles II?"
"Let me think about it..." Tintin touched his chin and said: "The last king of the Spanish Habsburg Dynasty, Charles II... is said to be the ugliest king in European history. He was very short, very thin and weak. How pitiful is this at the age of thirty-nine!"
"Hey, I'm talking about my ancestor Francis!" With a look of impatience on his face, Captain Haddock interrupted the chat between the two, and then continued: "Come over and take a closer look, and look at the background of the portraits. What is it?"
"Well, let me take a look!" Qin'er walked over and took a closer look, then said, "It seems to be a ship, and it looks familiar!"
"Let's take a look too!" Guan Heng and Ding Ding walked over and watched for a few seconds. Guan Heng suddenly patted Ding Ding on the shoulder and shouted: "Look, it seems that this boat is the same boat we bought at the old street market." The models are exactly the same!”
"Yes, that's right!" Ding Ding quickly nodded in agreement: "I think they are very similar!"
Guan Heng took out a small magnifying glass from his pocket and handed it to Ding Ding: "There seems to be a name on the side of the ship, take a closer look!"
Ding Ding and Guan Heng both read at the same time: "The Unicorn...that's right! It's the Unicorn!"
"Let me take a look too!" Upon hearing this, Captain Haddock grabbed the magnifying glass and took a look at it. He then slightly nodded and said: "Well, it really says Unicorn. I never noticed it before. Pass!"
"By the way, Ding Ding, I thought of it!" Suddenly an idea flashed in Guan Heng's mind, and he hurriedly said to Ding Ding: "Maybe there is a name on the side of our model ship!"
"That's right, Guan Heng!" Ding Ding clapped his hands and said, "I would have forgotten it if you didn't remind me!"
"Quick!" Ding Ding waved his hand and said, "Let's go back to my house and have a look!"
"I won't go with you!" Qin'er said, "I just moved downstairs. I'm going to buy some daily gifts and chat with the landlady. It's been a long time since I heard the gossip between the ladies. hehe!"
"Okay, you go ahead, I'll wait for news here!" the captain said, "By the way, try the good wine Guan Heng gave me!"
Just when the captain was pouring himself a few drinks in his room, "Ding-a-ling--" the phone rang!
"Hey, I am...what?!" The surprised captain suddenly loosened his fingers, dropped the wine glass in his hand and smashed it to pieces. He shouted nervously: "You said the ship model was stolen?!"
It turns out that Guan Heng drove Ding Ding back to his house in a sports car. When they went upstairs, they found that the door of the house had been pried open and the model ship was missing! So Tintin quickly called the captain to report the situation!
