Chapter 205 - This Suggestion Is Perfect For Me, I Think (1/2)

“How did you get on this ship?” asked Anne.

Harry was in total shock when he was found in the cabin used to store wood. There was a piece of stale bread and a half-eaten sausage beside him. Other than that, there were two wooden buckets nearby him. One of them was used to store clean water and the other for his excrement.

Harry scratched his head, not knowing what to say in a situation like this.

“No wonder you kept begging me to bring you on the ship recently! You have been planning all along to sneak onboard, right?

Anne grabbed Harry and lifted him by the collar.

“Not bad. You knew how to scout the place and make good use of me, huh? I can see that your guts are getting bigger and bigger,” she growled.

Harry started trembling in fear as Anne confronted him.

“Calm down, boss. I have begged you so many times to let me set sail with you. You tell me each time that you’ll ask Captain Zhang Heng about it. However, I know that you’ve never asked him even though you promised me again and again, which is why I had to find a way to get on board. It’s always been my wish to work on this ship.”

“You are only seven, kid! You need to know that you are not old enough to work on a ship!”

“Boss, I’m twelve. Look at my body. It’s impossible that I look like a seven-year-old kid, right?”

“Is that right? Now, why do I feel that your brain stopped growing at seven? Captain, according to the rules on this ship, what do we normally do to intruders?” asked Anne while turning around to look at Zhang Heng, who was standing nearby.

“Oh. To save us from unnecessary trouble, we usually kill them.”

“Well then, it seems that would be the only way to solve this problem.”

While she spoke, Anne drew her saber from her waist with a sly smile.

“I think you know what happened to the Skeleton, right?”

Harry was bewildered by their rough treatment. When Anne placed her saber on his neck, Harry felt that he was a step closer to death. Finally, the last line of defense in his heart crumbled, and he broke down, starting to cry hysterically with streams of snot flowing out of his nose.

“Boss, save me, please! This is all my fault. I swear I’ll never do something like this again.”

“Hmm. If that’s the case, then, what other ways can we punish him?”

Anne turned around and looked at Zhang Heng; saber still glued on Harry’s throat. Harry was so terrified he couldn’t move a single muscle on his body.

“We shall see how much he’s worth. We can stow him as a prisoner first. After that, we can exchange him for something more valuable, “smirked Zhang Heng, who was playing along with Anne.

“You heard that? Do you think you are valuable to us?” asked Anne while kicking Harry.

“No. I have no value at all! I’m currently staying with my aunt. She won’t pay you guys a single dime even if you kill me in front of her!”
