Chapter 1552: Signing the Agreement
At this time, America.
Successful prophecy is something only gods can achieve.
But Captain Gelin did not want to succeed at all; he was currently wishing he were dead.
"Ah!"
On the massive torture rack, other prisoners let out sounds of wishing they were dead, and Captain Gelin watched and shook his head.
Those prisoners gasped for air while staring at Captain Gelin, who was strolling around the cell block.
Their eyes were filled with astonishment.
He was the first prisoner ever able to stroll around in this prison.
Captain Gelin frowned, his gaze sweeping over rows of battered and bruised prisoners, but he could not find the figure of his good friend.
This made Captain Gelin wonder if that guy Kuke had been fooling him.
However, seeing these wailing prisoners, Captain Gelin felt a wave of emotion.
He had also nearly fallen to this state; fortunately, Ausilige arrived in time.
He pulled him out of here, and it was only then that the bootlicking warden learned what Ausilige had meant when he said there would be special care.
The warden's eyes were filled with embarrassment, and then he acted like a weathercock.
He collapsed at Captain Gelin's feet.
He invited Captain Gelin to leave, but was met with a stern warning from Captain Gelin.
He even told him that he would naturally leave when the time came.
When the warden watched Captain Gelin return to his cell and shut the door heavily himself, the expression on his face was extremely rich.
Regarding this, Ausilige did not say anything.
He only told Captain Gelin: come out when you've stayed enough.
To this, Captain Gelin did not respond much, and just like that, Captain Gelin became the most unique existence in this prison, bar none.
Once the prison guards knew, they dared not provoke him.
If the prison guards dared not provoke him, the prisoners dared even less.
Captain Gelin searched the entire prison but did not find Qiaozhi, and his mind suddenly went blank.
Could this good friend of his be living in legends?
Just at this moment, a familiar figure appeared outside the prison.
Captain Gelin was stunned, and a burning gaze immediately appeared in his eyes; wasn't this Qiaozhi, whom he had been searching for all along?
"Qiaozhi!"
Captain Gelin shouted, and Qiaozhi was stunned upon hearing the voice.
Turning his head back, he saw a familiar face and was even more bewildered.
"Gelin?"
"How did you get caught too?" Captain Qiaozhi asked in confusion.
Captain Gelin hurriedly opened the cell door and ran out right under the noses of a group of prison guards.
Facing this series of actions by Captain Gelin, Qiaozhi was completely dumbfounded.
When he was in this cell, he had never received this kind of treatment.
During those days, these prison guards simply didn't treat him like a human; if it weren't for the fact that he still had some utility, he would likely have been gone by now.
Thinking of those painful days, Qiaozhi felt terrible all over.
As soon as Captain Gelin stepped out of the cell door, he saw the warden, who was smiling like a grandson while looking at Captain Gelin.
"Master, you've come out."
Captain Gelin glanced at him and said indifferently: "Do you want me to go back in?"
The warden wished he could slap himself twice; why did he have to run his mouth?
Why did he have to provoke this guy?
The warden kept a smiling face and watched Captain Gelin leave.
"Qiaozhi, I finally found you."
Qiaozhi looked at Qiaozhi in astonishment, his heart feeling as if it had suffered great damage.
Captain Gelin sensed the strangeness in Captain Qiaozhi, frowned, and asked: "What is wrong with you?"
Captain Qiaozhi replied expressionlessly: "Nothing."
Captain Gelin said "oh" and didn't pay much attention.
He then said:
"How did those French let you go?"
Captain Qiaozhi ignored the previous unpleasant matter and said with slight confusion in his eyes: "I also don't know what those French are thinking in their heads."
"They asked me to sign some documents, and I couldn't understand any of them."
Captain Gelin suddenly realized something was wrong and immediately asked: "Then did you sign them?"
Captain Qiaozhi nodded.
"Oh no, this must be a trap by the French; it will definitely be disadvantageous to our Britain."
Captain Qiaozhi glanced at him and asked instead.
"After I was captured, what did that guy Kelinxi say?"
Captain Gelin recalled Kelinxi's attitude and was immediately speechless.
Although they were all British, they had originally immigrated to America from Britain because they couldn't make a living in Britain.
Having lived in America for these years, they had almost forgotten about Britain.
Captain Gelin took a breath, exhaled, and sighed: "Kelinxi did not intend to rescue you."
Hearing this, Captain Qiaozhi looked at his good brother, his heart warming.
"I understand."
"Hey, don't misunderstand," Captain Gelin said hurriedly: "I didn't come here this time to save my brother."
Captain Qiaozhi revealed an expression that both of them understood.
They did not continue this topic.
But at this moment, Richard was holding a document inside the castle.
It was written in French; Richard finally saw the name signed on the document and revealed a smile.
"Captain Qiaozhi acknowledges Canada and its Great Lakes Region as a French Colonial Area."
"How pleasant this sentence sounds to the ear."
Richard slapped the document onto the table, his eyes fixed on the map of the entire America.
Looking at the Canada region and the Great Lakes in the middle of America, such a large piece of land was his own Colonial Area.
Of course, this also included that gold mine.
A British captain signing such a document meant that they, the British, acknowledged the legitimate status of the French here.
Richard summoned someone and said immediately: "Go and publicize this document."
"Tell the British that their own captain has already acknowledged that those regions all belong to the French."
Soon, this news spread throughout the French Colonial Zone.
Wan Shang and Fang Dalong were stunned after receiving this news.
These two masters of disguise usually had their facial expressions lose control at this moment.
Fortunately, there was no one else; after being stunned for several seconds, Wan Shang and Fang Dalong recovered, the two looked at each other, and joy appeared on their faces.
This matter was not instigated by the two of them.
It was an idea Richard thought of himself.
Once such news exploded, it would definitely invite the frantic retaliation of Britain.
This was simply a direct provocation to the British.
Although they did not know why the French would make such a decision, it would be a pity if they did not seize such a good opportunity.
Wan Shang said: "I will go to Longyan City."
"I will go find Ausilige," Fang Dalong said.
The two instantly understood the thoughts in each other's minds and immediately acted separately.
As for why the two did not choose to spread the news to Britain, the French would naturally do that for them.
Soon, this matter spread throughout all of America.
After seeing this news in his office, Kelinxi flew into a rage and said furiously: "Call Captain Gelin over to me!"
