Chapter 125: Where have I met him (1/2)
The Muscat Scarborough fired a symbolic shot, and the French merchant ship not only obediently slowed down and stopped.
Seeing the other party's so familiar Elmer's mood finally improved, he returned to the deck table and tied his napkin.
The first lieutenant commanded Scarborough to lean on the side of the Sea Lion. The candidate who had spoken before could not help but said, ”Sir, we should keep the gunner on standby and send someone to check the situation first. ”
The chief mate's brow also frowned. He was not a rookie who had never been to the sea. Of course, he knew what to do. No one liked to be taught by a subordinate who always pointed his nose. In fact, if it was not for Burnett's origin, he would have been I can't help but explode, this person was previously excluded by his colleagues for no reason.
Sometimes it is a good thing, but because the way of doing things is not the same, it will be offensive.
”Do your job, Burnett.” The chief mate warned that he did want to order the gunner on standby, but was so uncomfortable as eating a mouse poop, but he served in the Navy for so many years, In the end, reason defeated emotions and issued orders in an orderly manner according to the original plan.
Burnett stood aside and didn't speak, but looked upright as if he had just won a war.
Ms. Xie pulled out a knife to cut the goods. Fortunately, the first group of 24 people had already boarded the French merchant ship opposite, and finally turned his attention away.

The calf of the latter had been snoring, especially when he saw the huge battleship, the densely packed cannon barrel, and the shadow on it.
His appearance also amused the group of British sailors on the deck, some whistling and others grinning, but one of them frowned and looked particularly prominent in the crowd.
”Lanny, what's wrong?”
”I don't know, I just think that guy looks a little familiar, but I can't remember where I've seen him.” Said Sailor Lanney.
”I found it out when you said that,” another person echoed.
The atmosphere on the deck became tense in vain, but then he listened to the man and said, ”He looks a bit like your wife, oh ... Poor little Lenny, can't wait to figure it out ~ maybe we A fat friend doesn't mind. ”
”Go to you [Beep], Stephen!”
After the two men on the interrupted ship returned to their previous relaxed and pleasant state, the mission was very easy, and most of them didn't take it seriously. After a while, the people who went to search also returned one after another.
