Curran glanced at the first mate who was covered in blood, and silently turned on the automatic blocking mode of the prosthetic hand.
Sensing her gaze, Xia Ye took the initiative to introduce: "That's the first mate. She has good knife skills. I heard that we were going to have dinner tonight, and she took the initiative to cut steaks for us."
"Oh." Curran thought to himself that this man is not only good at cutting meat, but he is also good at cutting people.
This is an intuition developed through years of fighting.
At this time, the first mate had separated a strip of backbone from the whale. She waved to Xia Ye and said with a smile: "Sister Xia Ye, you will be fine soon."
Xia Ye also smiled back: "Thank you for your hard work, Sister Nekosese."
Curran was about to say something when his eyes were suddenly attracted by something. Xia Ye followed her gaze and found a huge eyeball floating on the observation deck of the "Moby Dick".
Tang Li stood under his eyeballs and muttered something. He was probably testing some new function of the "Great Illusion Dream Senluo All-Seeing Destruction Technique and Immortal Killing Sword Pupil".
"That's the second mate." Xia Ye took the initiative to introduce him.
"Can you tell me what contract that is?" Curran asked.
"The Eye of Truth."
She could tell that Xia Ye wasn't lying, but she had never seen such a big eye of truth.
"I kind of understand now why you were able to kill this white whale."
As Curran spoke, he took out a golden cup and a piece of paper from his arms, and pushed them together in front of Yaha.
"Captain Yaha, I'm sorry about what happened to Momo. I hope you will accept this cup."
This is Serena's cup. Once he accepts it, it means that Yaha accepts Curran's sincerity.
It also means that this matter is completely over.
Yaha did not touch it, but picked up the note next to the cup and opened it. There was a name and an address on the note.
"What's this?"
"The person who bought Momo, if nothing else happens, Momo's cup is still in her hand." Coren replied.
"..."
Yaha looked at the note in his hand, then at the cup in front of him, and suddenly felt an unreal feeling. Just over half a month ago, she was chased by a debt collection team hired by "Ocean Shipping Leasing" and had to run away. Now, the other party's chairman is sitting in front of her, hoping to negotiate a peace with her.
She silently grabbed the cup and put it and the note into her pocket.
Curran looked at her, a smile slowly forming on his lips.
The next moment, a huge red lance suddenly appeared, and the tapered tip of the lance quickly approached in the field of vision!
"Bang - crunch - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - '
A scalp-numbing sound sounded, and when the sound stopped, the two people's movements froze.
Yaha's right arm was covered in red armor, and she held a two-meter-long lance in her hand. The long tapered spear tip crossed the table and pressed against Curran's prosthetic hand.
The prosthetic hand now looks more like a shield than a hand. Curran had just turned on the automatic blocking mode, but he didn't expect it to be put to use so quickly.
The prosthetic hand of the shield slowly exerted force and moved the tip of the gun holding it aside little by little. Curran narrowed his eyes behind the shield: "Captain Yaha, I thought I was here to negotiate."
"I know you are here to negotiate..." Yaha said hoarsely, "I also know that Xia Ye wants to cooperate with you, and I also know that even if I kill you, Momo will not be resurrected. That's why I will accept your offer." Good intentions,' but that doesn't mean I don't want to stab a hole in your head, like this whale."
Xia Ye looked at Ke Lun, then at Yaha, and finally turned her eyes to the direction where the smell came from - Lillian had already started grilling steaks.
"Lillian, I want a mature one..." she shouted at the other party.
"Okay, sister Xia Ye."
"What about you, how mature do you want to be?" She looked at the two people who were still in a stalemate.
"...Ninety percent." Yaha said solemnly.
"Please give me a medium-ripe one, Miss Xia Ye." Curran said politely.
"What about you, Chris?"
"Eh, uh... maybe 70%."
"One for each of the nine, five and seven..." Xia Ye shouted to Lillian.
"I know, sister Xia Ye~"
After such an interruption, the two could no longer maintain a stalemate. Yaha took the lead in retracting the lance. The red armor on his right arm disappeared along with the lance. Curran's shield also folded with a click and was put into his prosthetic hand.
Xia Ye picked up Xiuji who was lying on top of her head and held her in her arms. While stroking the black cat, she looked at Ke Lun and Yaha:
"That's it for now, how about that?"
Kelan glanced at the black cat in Xia Ye's arms. She had noticed the black cat last time, and her intuition told her that it was not an ordinary cat. And at this time, she was not interested in doing anything for Yaha. thing, go try what the cat is.
She nodded and said, "I have no objection."
Yaha looked at Xia Ye's appearance that was somewhat similar to Momo's, his eyes darkened, and he nodded: "Okay."
The matter between Curran and Yahab is finally settled.
Next, there is the matter between Curran and Chris.
"So...ah, the steak is ready!"
Xia Ye was about to say something else when she saw Lillian walking over with whale steak. The surface of the thick-cut rib meat was roasted and fragrant. Cut it with a knife. The light golden meat inside maintained just the right tenderness. Xia Ye would Put it in your mouth and chew it gently. The aroma of Lillian's special spices and the deliciousness of whale meat mix together and spread in your mouth.
tasty! !
The same grilled whale steak, what Lillian made was completely different from what the crew on the ship made. Xia Ye had already begun to consider whether to take Lillian with her next time she went to sea.
"Moby-Dick" has crossed the barrier of Debso Tower, and now relies on the barrier of the whale ship itself to resist the ether wind, swimming leisurely in the golden sea of clouds.
"I haven't seen the Aether Sea for a long time." Curran said suddenly, looking at the sea of clouds.
"Me too." Chris also said.
The two looked at each other with complicated expressions on their faces. Since Chris's experiment stopped and new ships were no longer developed and manufactured, they had no reason to come to the Aether Sea again.
"How does beluga meat taste?" Xia Ye asked with a smile.
Curran swallowed the whale meat in his mouth: "It's a little older than ordinary whales, but the flavor of magic is stronger. Where did you find it?"
"About 3,000 nautical miles west of the Western Islands... I hope you can keep what you hear next a secret, Chairman Curran." Xia Ye said.
Kelan didn't answer immediately. She could feel that what Xia Ye was going to say next might be very important.
"If it involves the company's operations, I have an obligation to disclose to the shareholders, that is, Venture Capital Department 7. I can make a promise to you now, but when the shareholders ask me to disclose, I cannot refuse - I guess the power of that contract must be stronger than the one between us." She said frankly.
Xia Ye immediately understood the hidden meaning of Ke Lun's words, "Thank you for telling me this. But it doesn't matter, I just need your commitment now."
"I promise to keep what I hear next confidential."
"Then it's settled."
There was a slight sting on her wrist, and Xia Ye glanced at it. Sure enough, the agreement between her and Ke Lun formed a new contract.
"We found it about 3,000 nautical miles west of the Western Islands." Xia Ye began to answer the previous question, "But it's not the only one. We found an entire pod of whales. Every whale in the pod, They’re all white whales the same size as him.”
