Chapter 261 A year in a hurry

Winter passes and spring comes.

The four seasons pass quietly in constant alternation.

Before he knew it, Xia He had been in the Don Quixote family for a year.

Naturally, a lot of things happened during this period.

For example, Boa Hancock ascended the throne and became the new king of Daughter Island.

The murloc adventurer Fisher Tiger died tragically on the warship.

as well as……

There is a new member in the Don Quixote family - sugar.

It is worth mentioning that Sucrose was originally a young woman in her twenties, but after being fed the Childhood Fruit by Doflamingo, she successfully rejuvenated and returned to her appearance when she was in her teens. She is currently the second youngest child in the entire family, except for Xia He.

That afternoon, Xia He was researching drugs in the laboratory built for him by Doflamingo, but suddenly he received a Den Den Mushi call from Upton.

Plu plu plu——!
"Hey?"

"Xia He, you said before that Doflamingo got the news about the Operation Fruit and planned to spend 5 billion Baileys to buy it?"

"Yeah, the location should be accurate, and he should have 5 billion Baileys. As for whether he will actually spend the money, I'm not sure."

After all, this is not the first time that guy has robbed his fellow thieves.

"If we can intercept this fruit from it, then..."

Upton's breathing even began to become rapid.

Five billion.

Even if he couldn't get the money, just by handing over this fruit, he would be promoted to the Marine Headquarters by the World Government as soon as possible.

By then, let alone being promoted to major general, it is very likely that he will be promoted directly to lieutenant general of the department.

"Intercept? I'm happy with that, but you have to know that Doflamingo will definitely go there in person to trade for such a precious devil fruit on that day." Xia He paused for two seconds, "A big pirate with a bounty of over 100 million... Can you really kill him? Or do you plan to send out the entire branch navy on that day to fight a desperate battle with the Don Quixote family?"

Upton: “.”

Xia He's words made him a little unsure of how to respond for a moment.

Just a little thought will reveal that what this boy said is true.

So, on the other end of the Den Den Mushi, he took a long drag on his cigarette and replied, "What should we do? We can't just watch those 5 billion... no, watch the surgery fruit fly away right before our eyes, right?"

After saying that, he seemed to be afraid that Xia He would think that he was a guy who valued profit too much, so he immediately added: "It doesn't matter whether the money is a lot or a little. The key is that if such a powerful fruit really falls into the hands of the Donquixote Pirates, the consequences... I can't even imagine it."

"So? You're a naval captain, and I'm not. You come to ask me what to do, how can I help you come up with a solution?" Xia He was speechless. He lit up a cigarette for himself and continued, "What's more, I'm only three years old. At three years old, you rely on me for everything. Who is the adult and who is the child?"

"Uh..." Upton fell into silence again.

After a while, he said, "Notify me when you have any news," and then hung up the phone.

"Tsk... you must have gotten angry out of shame."

In the past, I would have been the one to hang up the phone first.

Throwing the Den Den Mushi aside, Xia He immediately took out his smartphone and looked at the screen.

There is no missed call notification.

I think everyone is living well in Xiaoquan Village recently, and there is nothing that needs to bother me.

Oh, by the way, about half a year ago, Xia He secretly asked Upton to send someone to deliver another smartphone to Minnie Ann.

So, in the past six months, the two of them would use this thing to talk from time to time, and sometimes even send text messages to communicate. Although Minnie Ann didn't recognize most of the words, some simple symbols and drawings put together did not affect their communication. "Ah~~ It's getting late. After finishing today's experiment, I'll go back to bed."

All the vegetables, fruits, and wheat he planted in the fields had a good harvest.

Now, there are countless kinds of food in the small wooden house he built.

He didn't even have to go to the restaurant to eat.

After all, no matter how delicious the food cooked by the chefs there is, how can it be better than Xia He himself, who has a natural talent for cooking?

After completing the last experiment, taking the samples and packing up the equipment, he turned and walked out of the laboratory door.

Unexpectedly, just as he locked the door, Baby-5 ran over from not far away and reported to him breathlessly: "Xia He, Corazon... called back. He is with Luo and said he will be back soon."

Xia He had told baby-5 before to inform him immediately if she had any news about these two people.

Baby-5 will never refuse requests made by others.

"Did they call back?" Xia He blinked and looked at baby-5.

"Yeah." Baby-5 nodded. "It is said that Corazon took Luo to seek medical treatment everywhere this year in order to cure his platinum-lead disease."

"Is he cured?" Although he knew the result, Xia He still couldn't help but ask.

just in case……

Did my arrival bring about some butterfly effect?

However, the answer he got did not surprise him.

"No..." Baby-5 shook her head expressionlessly.

She would not feel the slightest bit sad about Luo's death.

Even if the two had been together for a year before.

family?
