24 Chapter 24 The Legend of the Masked Man (1/2)
”Thanks, thank you for saving me, Masked Man...”
An unmanned seaside.
The rescued mermaid, timidly thanked Carl for his rescue.
But her name surprised Carl a little.
”Mask? What the hell is this?”
Carl looked dumbfounded and didn't know when he had such a name.
The mermaid squeezed this body and explained with a reddish face.
”Master Masked Man, the news that you have rescued my family in the past few days has spread throughout the fisherman island.
I just wanted to come here to see you, but I was accidentally caught by a slave trader...”
Speaking of this, the mermaid's face turned redder, obviously it was her own work, otherwise she wouldn't be caught.
Carl didn't say anything, just rubbed her head gently, then smiled.
”It doesn't matter, you are safe now, but I advise you not to come here. If I am not here today, you will really become a slave.”
”Hmm, I know Master Masked Man, I will stay at home honestly and never come out again.
But I can ask, are you a human or a murloc?Why come to save us?”
”What you asked...”
Carl laughed blankly, then touched the mermaid's hair again.
”Of course I am a human being, but you can rest assured that I will not discriminate against you, nor will I discriminate against other races.
In my eyes, all races can get along with each other in peace, except for the dragon people!”
When talking about Tianlongren, Karl's tone obviously became a bit deep.
The mermaid shrank when he heard Carl's words, then nodded.
”I see. Although I still want to have a few more words with Master Masked Man, I should go back, or my family should worry about me. Thank you for saving me.”
The mermaid thanked again, then jumped into the sea.
The mermaid moved very fast in the water, and in a blink of an eye she disappeared from Carl's domineering coverage.
Carl shook his head, then glanced not far away, there were quite a few navies searching.
They were obviously looking for and killing the fierce beast of the Tianlongren.
Carl didn't intend to stay here much, and left the seaside directly.
After a while, he returned to his room and used his power to destroy all the tools of the crime.
Both the clothes and the iron sword were turned into a pile of powder by him.
In this way, even if someone suspected him, there was no evidence.
”Carl, come out!”
Carl, who had just gotten dressed, replied subconsciously when he heard Pizza calling him.
”Immediately, I get dressed and go out!”
After a while, Carl walked out of the room, and then saw the serious face of Pizza.
”What happened to Major General Pizza? With your expression so serious, what happened?”
”It is true that a major event happened, the Tianlongren was killed in front of the auction house!
By the way, you stayed in the room all afternoon, did you not go out?”
”What's this, if I don't stay in the room, where can I go?
This Heavenly Dragon has no grievances with me, I can't run out to make trouble for him, right?”
Carl shrugged, put on a'you're kidding' expression, and pretended to be innocent.
Hearing Karl's denial, Pizza breathed a sigh of relief, then patted him on the shoulder.
”That's enough. Because this time the accident was my dereliction of duty, the above didn't give me any opportunity to investigate. It directly lowered my rank and made me return to the headquarters and be punished.
Your transfer order has not come yet, so I hope that before the arrival of the new chief, you can rest for a while and never go out and run around.
