I formed the El Cat Investigation Team in Pirates

In the Spider Cafe, Sarah, codenamed Miss. has two fingers, goes by the pseudonym Pola as always, and runs the small shop as the proprietress.

Since this store is located far away from the city and is not a necessary place to pass through, usually, in addition to members of the Baroque Working Society, only lost travelers will visit here.

But there is another situation, that is, some intelligence dealers sometimes come here to sell or buy information.

This was something Hua Mei Miao found out through the intelligence channels he ran. Xie Wen knew nothing about it before...

After all, this kind of thing has never been mentioned in the comics, so the stupid Blue Star naturally has no way of knowing about it.

Today, there are a rare number of customers in the Spider Cafe, but they are all members of the Baroque Working Society.

"Ah hahaha! Today's coffee tastes good. Pola, your craftsmanship has improved again."

Miss. Valentine took a sip of coffee gracefully and praised with a smile.

Her partner, Mr. 5, was dissatisfied and slammed the cup in his hand on the table: "Didn't I tell you to add gunpowder?!"

"Sorry, this is a coffee shop, not an arms store." Paula wiped the cup in her hand slowly and replied without raising her head: "If you want gunpowder tea, you can add some of your own nose to it." Wouldn’t it be better to just shit?”

"What did you say?!" Mr.5 stood up suddenly with a hot temper.

"It's so noisy! Shut up!" Miss Christmas, who was even more hot-tempered and short and fat than him, shouted angrily: "Don't disturb my rest! It's rare that I have time recently, and I want to relax my waist! "

At this time, she was lying on a table in the coffee shop, letting her partner Mr. 4 massage her.

Then Mr. 5 immediately abandoned Paula and started arguing with Miss. Christmas.

"Aren't you going to stop them?"

Paula asked a figure in the corner, where her partner Mr.1 was sitting silently drinking his favorite yerba mate.

"Let them do whatever they want," Mr. 1 said calmly: "No one has much work recently, so they have a little excess energy. It's a good idea to vent."

"But my shop is going to suffer."

Although Paula was complaining, she was actually supporting her chin with her hands and just leaning on the bar, obviously looking like she was watching the show.

And Miss. Valentine is also a person who enjoys watching the excitement without taking it too seriously. Instead of trying to stop her, she laughs and makes fun of her next to her.

Only Mr. 4 was trying to stop his partner, but his slow tone completely added fuel to the fire for the impatient Miss. Christmas.

Seeing that the dispute between the two was getting more and more intense, and when a fight was about to begin, the door of the coffee shop was pushed open with a bang, and a small figure rushed in cheering.

"Wow——! It's a coffee shop, meow!" The little puppet ignored Mr.5 and Miss. Christmas, who were confronting each other, and quickly passed between the two, and then jumped on the bar with a big jump and leaned out. With her furry little head, she shouted to Pola: "Is there ice cream here, cat? Kelly wants a vanilla one!"

Immediately afterwards, Xie Wen walked in with a group of cats.

"Aha! I didn't expect that there is a coffee shop in such a remote place. It's really helpful!" Xie Wen pretended to say: "Mrs. Boss, bring me a cup of black tea with ice. Also, may I ask, we are going Which direction should we go in the rain? It's so easy to get lost in the desert, and we'll deviate from the direction while walking."

Other cats also started to order.

"I'd like a glass of rum with ice, thank you, meow."

"What's your favorite drink here? Give me one!"

"A cup of mocha coffee. I want it hot."

"Like the Admiral, I also want black tea, but without ice."

(=ΦωΦ=)

Linkmiao raised his hand and asked for a glass of juice.

After being briefly surprised, Paula immediately showed a business smile and said, "Okay, please wait a moment." Then she turned around and got ready behind the bar.

"Are you the Blue Star?" While other people in the Baroque Working Group looked at each other, Mr. 1 suddenly stood up and walked to Xie Wen, "I heard that you are very strong? I want to challenge you."

"But I'm not interested in accepting your challenge," Xie Wen glanced at him sideways and curled his lips: "Who are you? If you say you want to challenge me, I have to accept it?"

"Daz Bonis, a famous killer in the West Sea, with a bounty of 66 million Baileys..." Hua Mei Meow suddenly said: "Admiral, this guy seems to be quite valuable, Meow."

"Huh?" Xie Wen then turned around and looked at him carefully. It seemed that he had indeed seen him in the reward order, but...

"Changed your hairstyle?"

In the photo of the reward order, this guy should be wearing a slicked back hair style popular in the West China Sea, but now he has a shaved head like a monk in the comics.

Based on the purpose of the Baroque Working Group, it is actually difficult for their members to become famous, so even when the plot begins three years later, their bounty is not much, and now it is almost impossible to find their bounty order. .

But Mr. 1, or Daz Bonis, was different. Before he was recruited by Baroque Works, he had already made quite a name for himself in the West Sea, and the reward order had long been issued by the navy.

So, this guy...

Can be killed!

Hua Mei Miao obviously meant this when she spoke just now.

Although Xie Wen and the others did not plan to take action against the people of the Baroque Working Society at first, they were worried that attacking for no reason would attract the attention of Crocodile, but now they have met someone with a bounty, and the bounty is not low. , then it would be reasonable for him to take action again.

What's more, it was the other party who came to provoke him first.

Daz Bonis, who noticed the change in Xie Wen's attitude, launched an attack without hesitation.

"Mastery Slash!"

Bowness's palm turned into a blade and he grabbed Xie Wen's head.

But when he reached halfway, his whole body suddenly flew backwards, and at the same time, a stream of blood burst out from his chest.

Miss Christmas and others who were still hesitating whether to step forward to help suddenly froze in place. They didn't see when Xie Wen drew the knife, nor did they see when Xie Wen put the knife on his back. I got the fresh sword Shiragagi in my hand.

When he came back to his senses, all he could see was that he was slowly putting the funny-looking salted fish knife back into its sheath.

However, no one will find that knife funny now.

"Huh? This guy is your companion?"

After sheathing the knife, Xie Wen turned his head and looked at Miss. Christmas and others, pointed at the half-dead Bowness on the ground, and asked knowingly.

"No, no, no, we don't know this person at all!"

Everyone quickly shook their heads and denied it, even Mr. 4, who was always slow in his actions, was no exception.

Xie Wen also cooperated and "believed" them, then turned to look at Paula who was also stunned, and continued to apologize in a pretentious manner: "I'm sorry, boss lady, for staining your shop. I will make it up to you."

"No, no, no..." As Mr. 1's partner, Pola is the one who knows his strength best among everyone, so she doesn't dare to be disrespectful to Xie Wen at all, and waved her hands repeatedly: "You solved it for me. A wanted criminal, I should thank you."

Then, Paula quickly brought the drinks ordered by Xie Wen and others, and then went to clean up the blood stains that Bonis had spilled.

As for Miss. Christmas and others, because they were worried that Xie Wen would recognize them as Bowness's accomplices, they did not dare to run away immediately. They could only sit and huddle in the corner restlessly, praying that Xie Wen could leave early.

As for Bowness lying on the ground...

Who is that? We don’t know each other!
