Chapter 49 I Swim Fast
As the Ten Days Celebration approaches, the security burden in Braavos increases.
The Sea King sent part of his own guard to join the security force of Braavos.
Joseon was the captain of this guard.
He is the disciple of Quirrell Valentine, the chief swordsman beside Aquaman.
Responsible for the security of this area.
At the same time, he has another identity - Faria's admirer.
Of course, he was also aware of what had happened around Faria recently.
She couldn't speak out, and people outside couldn't contact her.
Anderson came to Faria's boat almost every day for three days. Joseão was so anxious that he wished his eyes were on Faria's boat.
But Anderson's power was too great, and Joseon didn't dare to touch him.
He simply couldn't sleep well these days.
Fortunately, there were no strange noises coming from Faria's boat, otherwise his heart would have been broken.
When he heard that an assassin had boarded Faria's ship, his first reaction was not worry but ecstasy.
I finally got the chance to see what was happening to Faliyah.
If you are lucky, you might even be able to catch a glimpse of Falia.
He was even thinking about how to shoot the assassin and Anderson together.
However, this thought only flashed through his mind.
If Anderson really had an accident, even his teacher might be implicated.
"Whoever's inside! Come out now! If you don't come out, we'll have to board the ship!"
Soon, two men walked out of the boat. One of them was shorter, with black hair and brown eyes, and his white clothes were a little messy.
It was Anderson who was killed a thousand times by Joseon in his heart.
He didn't know the other one, but his silver hair, purple eyes and handsome features made him feel a little ashamed.
I looked at it again and it seemed like I had some impression in my mind, but I just couldn't remember it.
"Sir, I am here to keep an appointment, not to assassinate you. Miss Yueying can vouch for me."
Brother Long smiled at him and put a hand on Anderson's shoulder, ready to use him as a human shield at any time.
At this time, Faria's soft voice came from the barge.
"Sir Joseon? This is Sir Viserys, and he has indeed come to keep an appointment."
If it weren't for Brother Long who killed Anderson's guards, Joseon might have believed it.
Seeing that he was still wet, He Saiang said:
"Don't worry, Miss Faria. I will protect you!"
He said this very happily, making people believe that he would rush over to serve as a human shield for Faria as long as she needed him.
"You said you came to keep an appointment, why didn't you take the boat?"
"Because I swim fast!"
Joseon: "???"
"I am really here to keep an appointment. You can ask Mr. Anderson."
Anderson's mouth was dry. He opened his mouth to speak, but found his throat tight.
"Ahem, that's right. He came to keep an appointment. Maybe my guard misunderstood."
However, Jose Ang still refused to give in.
"Let go of Mr. Anderson!"
"Mr. Anderson, it seems that this gentleman thinks I have held you hostage."
As he spoke, Brother Long slapped Anderson on the butt, squeezed it hard, and then stepped back a few steps.
Men know best how to please other men, and of course they also know best how to disgust other men.
"Don't talk nonsense, and I won't talk nonsense either."
Brother Long warned in a low voice.
Anderson felt as if someone had poured a basin of cold water into his stomach, and his internal organs were stagnant, but he couldn't get any action.
And at the same time it is accompanied by a strong sense of humiliation.
He was a little confused as to how the stray dog that he had so easily controlled at first could suddenly become a threat to him.
Now Viserys has evidence of his using force, and if it gets out it will be detrimental to the family.
Whether considering his own reputation or his family's reputation, he could only admit the fact that he had failed.
"Hoseon! Put away your arrows, Lord Viserys is my guest!" Anderson said.
Viserys! I remember now, it's the prince of Westeros!
Could it be that I really made a mistake?
Although all signs indicate that the current situation does not seem normal.
But Anderson spoke, and he had to believe it.
"Oh, is it Lord Joseon? Lord Anderson is about to leave, so you can see him off."
"good."
Joseon responded subconsciously and asked his men to row the boat.
When his boat was about to approach Faria's flower boat, Joseon reached out his hand and gently cushioned it.
It was as if he was worried that his boat would damage Falia's boat.
After the boat stopped, he was still reluctant to let go of his hands, as if they were sucked onto the boat.
Only after Anderson got off the boat and sat down did Joseon take his hands off the flower boat.
First the base of the palm, then the fingers, until the longest middle finger lingered across the bottom of the boat.
"Mr. Anderson, please be safe."
Brother Long waved to him, and Anderson forced a smile.
Joseon was really confused, he had never seen such a situation before.
Even when his boat was far away, he kept turning his head to look back.
But Viserys, standing on the boat, still kept smiling and waved to Anderson from a distance.
Viserys did not enter the barge until they were almost on land.
"Mr. Anderson, are you okay?"
Anderson didn't answer him and just left.
It seems that this matter is not that simple, but it is not something he can interfere with, so he had to give up.
Back on the barge, Faria was applying medicine to Asha.
Asha's originally slender fingers were swollen like a piece of carrot.
There were tears in Asha's black almond-shaped eyes, and it was unclear whether it was because of pain or grievance.
The two of them were like bullied kittens, snuggling together and licking their wounds.
"Let me see." said the second brother Long.
She also saw the violent rescue by the second brother Long just now.
Somewhere in my heart, the positive aspects that I have been reflecting on are also being shaken.
Although the second brother Long took the initiative to speak, he was Faria's guest after all. Although the two had a deep relationship, they were ultimately different in status.
She glanced at Faria, and after getting her consent, she handed her hand to Brother Long Er.
Because of the pain, Asha felt her palms were sore and hot.
When she was caught by Viserys's cool palm, she immediately felt the pain reduced a lot.
The areas on Asha's hands are mainly the middle finger, ring finger and little finger.
The swelling in these areas made his palms look fatter.
Somehow, Asha hoped that Brother Long would look at her other hand.
Slender, fair and tender, no worse than Faria's.
Brother Long raised Asha's middle finger and asked:
"Does it hurt?"
Asha shook her head.
Then it was his ring finger, but as soon as he touched it lightly, a thin layer of sweat appeared on Asha's forehead.
"It's broken. Maybe it's a broken bone."
"Bone...broken?" Asha said softly, and it sounded very serious.
Brother Long Er looked around but didn't see any material suitable for making a "splint".
Then he had an idea and pulled a few square iron coins from his pocket.
This iron coin popular in Braavos is square and has certain edges and corners, and can be used as a hidden weapon when thrown out.
When Brother Long's physique improved and his strength grew, he began to carry some with him.
He tore off a strip of cloth from his body and wrapped the iron coin, then he placed Asha's other hand on his shoulder and said:
"It may be a little painful, just bear with it."
Brother Long Er pulled hard and Asha's face turned pale immediately, but she refused to scream.
But as the saying goes, the heart is connected to the fingers, the tremendous pain made her lose balance and she fell into Viserys' arms.
The girl's body fragrance penetrated into Brother Long's nostrils, and feeling the elasticity in his arms, he felt a little distracted.
"Take a deep breath, take a deep breath."
He placed his hands on Asha's shoulders and spoke soothingly, while also calming himself down.
However, Brother Long Er did not notice that Faria, who was sitting across the table, had an envious look in her eyes.
She found that the young man in front of her seemed to have changed a little, making her want to get close to him.
Before she could be noticed, Faria woke up with a start and subconsciously drove the thought out of her mind.
But it was as futile as a man trying to drive away smoke with a stick.
