"What should you do with the properties under the Baron's name?" Old Hank asked Pleasant.
"It's not my turn to deal with this matter. After all, they already have a new boss." Plisson smiled, then turned to look out the door.
"Jack, I know you're outside, come in."
As Pleasant's words came out, a tall man came out of the door, it was Scarface Jack that Pleasant had met before. But now, in addition to his iconic scar, Jack now has a medium-sized bruise on his face. And his hand that was supposed to hold the machete was now wrapped in a bandage. From the thickness of the bandage, it could be seen that this hand must have suffered a lot of damage.
Karossa, who was sitting at the front desk with her daughter, suddenly became nervous when she saw Scarface Jack entering the tavern. She subconsciously looked at Pleasant sitting in the tavern, but saw a faint smile on his face. After seeing the smile on Pleasant's face, the remaining worry in Carossa's heart about Scarface Jack gradually began to fade away.
"Don't be nervous." Plisson turned around and smiled.
"This is Jack, the man in charge of Santan Town. He is an old friend of mine. You can affectionately call him Brother Jack." Plisson turned back to look at Scarface Jack, who had just entered the tavern, and said lightly. .
"I..." Jack looked confused.
"Brother Jack, you don't have to be modest. After all...Hey, wait, who beat you like this? It's too much. Tell me, brother, and I will help you avenge you." ." Plisson looked at Jack who was bandaged and with a bruised nose and face, showing a shocked expression.
When did I become brothers with you?
The corners of Jack's mouth twitched. His current appearance was all thanks to the person in front of him. Originally, when the housekeeper of the Baron Mansion led people to collect debts from Old Hank's house, he quietly left the place where Plisson was without anyone noticing. He originally thought that he had run fast enough, and he ran away in about half an hour. Arriving at the pier in Santan Town, just when he was out of breath and thought he was safe, he found that Pleasant had appeared behind him...
Facing the Awakened One, Jack had no ability to resist at all. The beating knocked Jack unconscious. When he woke up again, he had been taken to the Baron Mansion by Pleasant... ...
"This...this...I fell on my own." Jack covered the bruise on his face and lowered his head and said to Pleasant.
He had no choice now. Faced with the former leader, a vicious man known as the "Black Crow", he could only swallow it all by himself no matter how much bitterness he had.
"Why are you so careless? Jack, let me worry for nothing, brother." Plisson stroked Onai's head and spoke to Jack casually.
Although he called him a brother, I'm afraid there wasn't any real feeling in it.
Jack was silent for a long time without thinking of what to say in response to Pleasant, and could only smile awkwardly from the side.
"Old Hank, all the properties under the Baron's name are now handled by Jack. I can rest assured that he will do the work." Pleasant pointed at Jack who kept laughing behind him and said to Old Hank.
You may be worried! Jack's heart was in despair now.
After he was knocked unconscious by Pleasant, he appeared in the Baron's Mansion as soon as he woke up. The baron himself was tied up by Pleasant. The guy forced him with a gun and put a knife on the Baron's neck. He obtained a magic video scroll and recorded him holding a knife to the Baron's neck.
The disposable magic scroll worth 500 dolores clearly recorded his appearance.
Now, no matter how brave he is, he doesn't dare to offend Pleasant. If that guy just throws the video recording scroll to Count Pato in Chongyan City, then he may not be able to eat it and carry it around.
Scarface Jack, who has already experienced the wandering life of escape, attaches great importance to the hard-won "job" in Santan Town. It is not unacceptable for him to leave here directly, but if he continues to let If he leaves with a wanted warrant, he may have ten thousand people who are unwilling to do so.
"Whatever you say, Mr. Wilson made a big deal and bought all the properties under the name of Baron York, and rewarded me with managing them. Of course, my brothers and I will live up to Mr. Wilson's expectations of me." Scarface Jack With a shy smile, he said something to Pleasant against his will.
"You're flattering me." Plisson waved his hand, "From now on, my old friend's shop will still have to take care of you."
"Of course! Mr. Wilson's friends are my friends. If anyone dares to attack my friend, I, Jack, will never let him go!" Scarface Jack patted himself firmly with the hand that had not been bandaged. chest.
"Brother Jack, I know you will not let me down." Plisson patted Jack on the shoulder, "But there is nothing going on here for the time being, you can leave."
"Huh?" Scarface Jack didn't react.
"You can go now."
"Mr. Wilson, I..." Jack opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something else.
"...Did you hear clearly what I just said?" A cold light flashed in Plissen's eyes.
"Excuse me." Jack lowered his head. He was afraid that he would do anything to annoy this old man again, so he left here very quickly.
"It's a lot cleaner." Pleasant looked at Jack's back as he opened the door and said to himself.
"You handed over the Baron's properties to him? Is this man worthy of your trust?" Old Hank looked at the door that was pushed open suspiciously.
"I don't know." Plisson still had a smile on his face.
"Then why did you hand over those properties to him?"
"Because Jack is not stupid, he is very clear about his current position. I can hold him up high, and I can also throw him down hard. I believe he will not understand this simple stakes. "
"Why not someone else?"
"Because of trouble." Plisson rested his chin lazily, with a relaxed expression on his face, "Jack is in charge of all the baron's thugs, and is responsible for the collection of debts and rents in Santan Town. He will manage it. The related industries and the people under the Baron are a perfect fit.
And it would be a pity if such a good tool man was abandoned just because of some minor problems. "
"...You have changed so much that I have some doubts as to whether you are still the little Wilson I knew before."
"People always need some changes. I have experienced too many things over the years, and some changes are normal." Pleasant sighed lightly, and then took out the Wilson family treasure from the eternal core. Black box with treasure map.
"It stands to reason that after I get this thing, I should leave." Plisson stroked the black shell of the box, which contained a secret that had been sealed in dust for an unknown period of time.
"Old Hank, I think it's time for us to say goodbye..."
"I know you won't stay here for long, but I still want to ask you, will you come back?"
"Maybe, I don't know for sure." Plisson shook his head, the heaviness in his eyes fleeting, and a very relaxed expression appeared on his face for a moment, "Not long ago, my future was not certain. direction, but because of a series of fantastic encounters, now I have set goals one after another.”
"I don't know how this will change my life, but as I complete these set goals one by one, I think my future will go further than before."
