" She actually lied to me…"
In the dark alley.
Gion's face was pale, and he muttered with a dull expression, as if he had lost his soul.
She had never seen such a person in her life.
The impact of this scene on her was undoubtedly huge.
The most hateful thing was that he had lost a bet to this shameless bastard who had a mocking smile on his face!
Could it be…Could it be…
Did she really have to kiss him?
Gion carefully raised his head and looked at Adam Royce's chiseled profile.
From her perspective,
The gentle light from the dim street poured down diagonally and fell on Adam Lys 'face.
His tall nose seemed to be shadowed by the yellow light.
His eyes, which were mixed with a smile, also looked even more profound and lively.
For some reason,
Gion's heart trembled slightly as she looked at him. She was a little absent-minded.
It seemed like…kissing him made her not hate him so much…
The moment this thought appeared,
Gion was shocked.
She was angry at first.
He thought that Adam Lys, that damned bastard, was using his Demon Fruit ability to tempt him again.
However, she quickly realized that…
Adam Lys's attention was not on him at all.
Instead, he looked calmly at the crying woman sitting on the cold stone floor.
"What are you looking at?"
Gion suppressed the complicated emotions in his heart and asked curiously.
Adam Lys shook his head."
"Gion, as you can see, this world is not as beautiful as you think.”
Gion snorted coldly.
"I know!"
"I lost."
She gritted her teeth and immediately revealed an expression of despair.
She slowly closed her beautiful eyes and tiptoed.
The moment he did this,
Gion's face was quickly dyed with an extremely beautiful blush, and her heart was beating wildly.
Ghosts call out to the gods,
She suddenly realized,
He didn't reject what was going to happen next.
However, what he had expected did not happen.
She only heard Adam Royce's voice with a faint smile ringing in her ear.
"But you didn't lose either."
What was that?
Gion opened his eyes and subconsciously said,"
"I didn't lose?"
A sense of joy quickly surged in her heart, but at the same time, it was mixed with a faint sense of disappointment.
"You seem to be very regretful that you didn't manage to kiss me.”
Adam Lys noticed the strange behavior in Gion and teased.
Gion punched him, but the latter easily blocked it.
" Continue watching…"
Adam smiled and pointed at the woman.
Gion also looked in the direction he was pointing.
The woman slowly stopped crying. She stood up from the muddy ground and walked into the rusty iron door.
From Adam and Lys 'point of view,
In that woman's arms.
There was already a crying baby.
"Be good, don't be afraid. Mommy is here."
" Daddy went out to earn money. We will definitely live a good life…"
As the woman coaxed the baby, her face was filled with motherly gentleness and light. Her smile was very moving.
After a while,
The baby finally stopped crying.
The woman gently placed the baby in a small basket covered with cotton cloth.
Then, he found a dirty steamed bun in the corner of the dilapidated room and ate it without saying a word.
It was obvious that she was very hungry.
Under the moonlight,
In the dark street,
In a small, dilapidated room covered in cobwebs.
A prostitute,
A mother.
Eating a dirty steamed bun alone,
Big mouth, big mouth,
She was crying.
He was also smiling.
The world was very quiet.
It was late at night.
In the corner of the alley,
At some point, tears were streaming down Gion's face.
"Gion, you didn't lose."
"This world might not be as beautiful as you imagine, but it might not be as bad as I imagine.”
"But the most important problem is that for many people, what our navy can do is actually quite limited.”
"So what I want to say is that helping people is not the way you help them, because we can only see a part of the truth.”
Adam Lys said calmly.
Gion didn't say a word and slowly turned around.
"Let's go back."
Adam Lys nodded.
The two of them did not speak along the way.
After they had walked far away, Gion suddenly turned his head and said in a hoarse voice,"
"Adam Lys, am I very stupid in your eyes?”
Her eyes were very red.
Adam Lys nodded resolutely.
"Yes."
Gion was stunned.
Is there anyone who consoles people like you?
She bit her lower lip tightly and said,
"But as the leader of the Beihai Navy, why didn't you help her?”
Adam Lys frowned."
"So you're blaming me?"
Gion was stunned.
She could feel the cold anger in Adam Lys 'eyes.
However, the stubbornness in her bones made her continue,
"You clearly have the ability to help her!"

The pace is slow, but I think it's necessary to write about the protagonist's character, concept of justice, etc. I'll write slowly and seriously. You guys take your time to read. This book will at least cover it.)
(Also, if you want to see other pirates, you can read my old book, Self-discipline! Have you ever seen Marlin Fando at four in the morning?》,1.2 million words, and it was still at midnight every day.)
