MTL - Reborned as an Orphan Girl With a Spatial Pocket!-Chapter 5111 Crossing the Strait (1)

After she finished her meal, she asked Mr. Fan, "Master, when will we cross the strait?"

“I asked Zhang Ming just now, and he said it would be around eleven o’clock.”

 “Any news about the pirates?”

“I don’t know, but it’s been quiet outside, so the pirates probably haven’t caught up.”

 “I’ll go out and take a look.”

“Don’t get too close to the outside. You can see the sea if you stand in the middle of the deck.”

“Okay.” After Lu Xiaoxiao finished speaking, she stood up and walked outside the house.

When she reached the center of the deck, she saw rough seas, but no pirates. It seemed that they had not untied the poison she had given, otherwise they would not have failed to catch up.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. Just when she was about to go back to her room, she saw Zhang Ming walking towards her. It seemed that he had something to ask for.

So he stopped and stood there, waiting for Zhang Ming's arrival.

“Comrade Lu, the captain asked you to come to the bridge.” Zhang Ming said to Lu Xiaoxiao when he walked in front of him.

“Did Captain Meng say you had anything to do with me?”

 “No, he will ask you to come to the cab.”

“I understand.” After Lu Xiaoxiao finished speaking, she walked towards the cab.

After she got into the driver's seat, she asked Meng Yuan, "Captain Meng, what do you want from me?"

 “Will the pirates come tonight?”

“I don’t know about this either. You just patrol as usual.”

"They have been asked to patrol, and no trace of the pirates has been found so far." "Then continue patrolling. Don't we still have three hours to cross the strait?"

"Well, I hope you can help us when we cross the strait later. This is the reward." After Meng Yuan finished speaking, he took out the dollars he had prepared in advance from his pocket and handed them to Lu Xiaoxiao.

Lu Xiaoxiao glanced at the dollar in Meng Yuan's hand and couldn't help but clicked her tongue in her heart. However, she did not reach out to take the dollar. Instead, she asked Meng Yuan: "Is there anything wrong with that strait? Is that Are there pirates too?”

“No, but the people there behave more disgustingly than pirates.”

 “How do you say this?”

"They want money, and they want it to the death. If we don't give it to them, they won't let us cross the strait safely."

“What’s wrong with this? Are they going to throw explosives to blow up the ship?”

"They did throw it, but because the technology was not up to par, they just blew up the deck."

"Then what are you afraid of them doing? Just speed up the ship and sail across the strait. The explosives will have no effect on you anyway."

“Explosives really have no effect on us, but they put iron wheels underwater, or iron wheels full of spikes like hedgehogs.

If we ignore them and sail directly across the strait, they will activate the mechanism and turn the iron wheel, blowing countless big holes in the bottom of the ship. "

After listening to Meng Yuan’s words, Lu Xiaoxiao finally understood why Meng Yuan was so distressed, because this matter was indeed quite difficult.

But since Meng Yuan asked her for help, he must have thought about how to deal with the people who settled on the strait.

Thinking of this, he directly asked Meng Yuan: "Captain Meng, how do you want me to help you?"

“I want you to attract their attention, especially those who control the underwater iron wheel. As long as you can help me attract their attention for one minute, I can drive the boat safely through the strait.”

“Impossible, I don’t have that much ability, you have found the wrong person.”
