Chapter 703 Appeal (Add More)
Although Dongna tried her best to make the dinner as rich as possible, she still couldn't hide the fact that the ingredients were scarce. After all, the food on the island was rationed, even if it cost money to buy it.
When Dongna and Nini brought all kinds of food to the table, they had already changed into the best clothes at home to show respect.
Charles looked down at his shabby coat. Compared with them, he looked like a beggar.
The dinner went well, and for the sake of Shining, Charles tried his best to express himself as a normal person, just like an ordinary father who was a guest at his daughter's friend's house.
After dinner, Charles sat at their house for a while, chatted enthusiastically with the two, and finally left with Shining.
The moment the door closed, Dongna and Nini breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, and the two privately expressed their impressions of Charles.
"Shining's father is so fierce, just like a bad guy."
"The governor looks really scary, his eyes are actually a living spider!"
When the two father and daughter came out, it was already night outside, and as the holes on the roof were blocked one after another, Hope Island dimmed.
But for Charles and Winky, it doesn't matter if there's sunlight or not, as they walk through streets that are deserted because of the curfew.
While walking, Winky held Charles' prosthetic limb and shook his fingers gently, forcing Charles to guess how much strength she could use to crush the steel.
"I don't guess. Anyway, no matter how much I say, you must say that I guessed wrong." Charles smiled and looked at his daughter who wanted to cheat.
"How could I cheat, guess what."
"Xinxie, please spare my arm. It's very painful to reinstall the prosthesis." Charles put his hand on his daughter's shoulder, and continued to walk forward with his arms around her.
"Do you feel pain? Mom said you are a masochist who is not afraid of death." Shining said jokingly.
Hearing this, Charles had a complicated expression, "I'm not a superman, I'm also afraid of pain and death, but I know that there are some things that are more terrifying than death and pain, so I have to do it."
When he felt that the atmosphere was a bit heavy, Charles quickly changed the topic, "What do you want me to do with you tomorrow? Whatever you say, I will accompany you anytime."
"You can say whatever you want! Well, let me think about it." A smirk gradually appeared on Shining's face.
"Hey, what do you want to do? After all, I'm also a respectable person in Dihai, don't be too obtrusive——" Charles turned his head to look at the trash can in the corner behind him just as he was speaking. "Who! Get out!"
In an instant, Charles, who was just a good father, immediately turned back into the captain of the Narwhal.
There was a slight shake between the two trash cans, and a round, fat woman emerged from the trembling, she was Dongna's neighbor Jasmine.
With a slight movement in Charles's heart, hundreds of tentacles rose between him and Jasmine, and the tentacles instantly entangled Jasmine, and then all the tentacles pushed violently like a sea wave, directly sending the fat woman in front of him.
"Why follow me, who sent you!"
Once Charles, who had experienced life and death for many years, became serious, the aura on his body was not something a little girl could resist, and Jasmine was so frightened that she almost cried immediately.
But when she thought of the sky-blue boy's eyes in her mind, she resisted to put away the timidity in her heart.
"You are the governor, right? There is a young man who is being tortured in the Institute of Relics! But he is really a good man, he was wronged! He saved me before. Please help him!!"
The other party's words were confusing, which made Charles confused. Fortunately, she reached out and tapped her brain lightly, and then tapped Charles' temple, and the whole thing happened in Charles' mind.
A few months ago, this woman rescued an experimental subject who escaped from the Institute of Relics. Although he was finally captured by three places, this woman never forgot, and tried every means to save the boy who fell in love at first sight.
Tonight, when Dongna borrowed food from her home and learned that the governor of Hope Island was at her home, Jasmine immediately had an idea in her mind. She wanted to save the wronged boy by pleading with Charles! !
After knowing the purpose of the fat woman in front of him, Charles' tense body gradually relaxed. He thought he could be infiltrated by some special organization in his base camp. It turned out to be such a trivial matter.
For Charles now, whether the boy was wronged or not is a trivial matter.
Charles glanced at Jasmine, and continued walking back with his daughter.
"Let's go, Winky, let's go back to the Governor's Mansion. By the way, do you still remember the two villains I gave you? Are they still there?"
"They escaped when the death light appeared, but I caught them back, and I caught more. I'll take you to see them later. It's quite interesting."
Seeing Charles drifting away, ignoring what she wanted, Jasmine completely collapsed, falling to the ground and crying loudly. "Master Governor! He was really wronged!!"
In the next period of time, Charles did not go back to Ancha Island. He stayed in Hope Island and stayed with Shining every day, as if he wanted to make up for the missing fatherly love.
Sometimes Winky needs to help his mother. At that time, Charles feels like the lonely old man in the old TV public service announcements.
Although there is not much time, Charles seems to have adapted to this kind of life a little bit.
It was another morning, he first checked the various documents on the bedside table, learned about everything on the surface and Earthsea, and then he got up from the bed. going for breakfast.
During the meal, Charles saw that Shining was not the same as usual, and suddenly appeared in front of him to startle him. He knew that the other party was not available now.
"It's been so long, Anna's anger should have subsided, right? She is angry now, so I should find a way to coax her, but the more I think about it, the more awkward I feel."
"Hey! This woman is really crazy! It's the end of the world, and you still care about emotional issues. Can't this kind of thing be solved after Dihai is saved?"
Just as Charles was dividing the bacon on the plate with a knife and fork, the fat woman's voice echoed in his mind that night. "Master Governor! He was really wronged!!"
Chewing the bacon with a salty burnt taste in his mouth, Charles thought to himself: "There is nothing to do now, why don't you go and have a look?"
Originally, he only needed to say a word, and the people below might help him do it. But Charles wanted to see for himself.
