Chapter Twenty-Four: Tina, the Little Rich Woman

The two teams gradually converged and merged, and at the forefront were Brigadier General Adkin and Admiral Louis, who introduced him to the customs and the location of the Covenant.

Behind the two of them was Longinus, who was meticulously observing everything around him, when suddenly, a sneaky figure melted into the crowd and crowded over.

"Brother Longinus, Tina misses you so much!" Tina expertly grabbed Longinus's left arm and said crisply with her head tilted.

Longinus, who sensed that a large number of burning eyes were quickly gathering behind him, was helpless, and he could even tell that those gossipy and curious eyes came from his colleagues, and those eyes full of anger and jealousy came from the nobles of the Hisca Kingdom.

Longinus was helpless not because he was afraid of trouble, in fact, he didn't think that some small nobles could cause him any trouble, he just mourned for the future of this kingdom, has the power of Lori control spread all over the upper class of this kingdom?

Brigadier General Adkin, who noticed the movement behind him, turned his head and asked, "You are Tina, right?" I've heard people say for a long time that there is a little girl who often comes to our naval base, and even sends many gifts to the soldiers every time she comes, and I have heard many soldiers call you a little angel in private! ”

Tina was not stage frightened, and gave a standard military salute and said, "Your Excellency, these are what I should do."

At this time, Louis also turned around, and his "sharp" gaze fell on Longinus.

"Madness, madness!" The nobles of the Hisca kingdom laughed wildly in their hearts, waiting for the moment when that navy was unlucky.

Who knows, in the disbelieving eyes of those nobles, the heavy daughter who did not smile actually stepped forward and hugged Longinus and laughed: "Hahaha! Brother Longinus, I finally saw you again, and I knew you would find your place in the Navy. ”

"Uncle Louis, it's been a long time, and you're much more energetic than last time." Longinus laughed.

Those aristocrats who have dark thoughts in their hearts only feel that their three views are broken, what is this? Is the distinction so obvious?

Although they were not angry in their hearts, they didn't dare to say it, one of these two bigwigs was a commodore and the other was a kingdom admiral, and they were not characters they could afford to provoke.

Several people quickly chatted familiarly, and after entering the royal city, Tina leaned into Longinus's ear and whispered: "Brother Longinus, you came at the right time, our kingdom's special food festival is very famous in the entire Shengting Island, it just started yesterday, bringing together the special foods of the surrounding kingdoms, and Tina will take you to taste it later!"

"I think you want to eat it yourself!" Longinus pressed against her head and laughed indulgently.

"Hee-hee, it's both!"

"Will Uncle Louis agree, though? He doesn't have time to stare at you right now. ”

"Don't worry! As long as it's Brother Longinus, if it's you, Daddy, he'll definitely agree. ”

After saying that, Tina ran forward and grabbed Admiral Louis's arm and shook it gently: "Dad, I want to go to that special food festival later, Tina has been looking forward to it for a long time."

Louis frowned slightly, and said hesitantly: "That place is too far away from the royal city, and I can't get out of it now, in case I encounter danger......"

"Big Brother Longinus will go with me, Dad, don't you know the strength of Big Brother Longinus?"

"Brother Longinus is indeed very reliable, and I can rest assured to have him, but ......" Louis looked to the side in embarrassment.

Brigadier General Adkin was very "understanding" and said: "Longinus, you will play with the little girl first, as long as you remember to rush back before the start of the covenant."

Seeing that he had been sold like this, Longinus said speechlessly, "Okay, I know."

……

Tina's statement is not an exaggeration, this food festival does bring together the specialties of various kingdoms on the island of Santen, such as the scorpion barbecue of Alabastan, which is also very flavorful.

"Hmm! Tina is so happy! After looking forward to it for so many years, I was finally able to eat the food at the food festival, and my father used to have a bunch of things at this time, and he never worried about letting me come out alone. ”

"With Uncle Louis's character, it's already rare to be able to let you out." Longinus is also tasting all kinds of food, although he does not indulge in enjoyment, but the pursuit of good things has always been human nature, and he will not force his nature to become an ascetic.

"That's right." Tina nodded sympathetically, and then asked curiously: "By the way, Brother Longinus, a few days ago, the newspaper published another story about your life in exchange for hostages, can you tell me in detail?" Tina wondered. ”

"You know my strength, it's too much of an exaggeration to say that you are in danger, those pirates are ......" Seeing that Tina was still staring at him with stubborn and determined eyes, Longinus had no choice but to raise his hands as if surrendering, "Okay, okay, the general course of events is like this......"

After a colorful description, Tina's eyes flashed with little stars, and even the barbecue in her hand became cold and stiff because she forgot to taste it, "Tina is so envious!" I really hope that I can quickly become a righteous navy like Brother Longinus, but unfortunately my father stipulated that I must be at least 16 years old to join the navy. ”

"Oops!" Tina, who was looking forward to it, was hit by a dirty child and stumbled and almost fell.

Fortunately, she has a certain foundation in physical skills, even if she is caught off guard, she can quickly stabilize her figure, and after calming down, she saw that the guy who caused the accident had disappeared into the alleys in all directions, so she stomped her feet in shame and said, "That little beggar is really rude!"

She didn't dislike the other party for being too dirty, but she just felt that it was too embarrassing to be taken aback in front of the adoring big brother Longinus!

Longinus reminded with a slightly condensed face: "Check that you haven't lost anything on your body, right?" The fluctuation that flashed just now seems to be ...... Devil Fruit Breath! ”

"Devil fruits? How is this possible? Tina's eyes widened, she couldn't connect the dirty little beggar with the Devil Fruit worth more than 100 million Baileys, but out of absolute trust in Longinus, she quickly checked it.

"Damn! The change I brought out to entertain the eldest brother today was stolen by that thief! ”

"Did you just lose some pocket money? That's okay. Longinus said with a sigh of relief.

"Although it's only 30 million Bailey, but that guy didn't say anything about it and dared to steal my money, I must settle this account for her!" Tina grinded her little tiger teeth and said angrily.

"Ahem...... Longinus almost choked on his own saliva, as if he knew Tina for the first time, "How many Baileys do you say?"

"Thirty million Bailey! Brother Longinus, you don't have to care, this is just my pocket money this month, Tina mainly can't swallow this breath. ”

In fact, Longinus really didn't care much about this, just with the pirates he captured in the past two years, the bounty amount added up to more than 300 million, although the navy could not give him the bounty according to the bait given to the bounty hunter, but the bonus accumulated again and again was nearly 100 million Bailey.

It's just that he really can't take out 30 million Bailey as change as Tina lightly.

After doing it for a long time, it turned out that he was a soft rice eater in the eyes of those nobles!
