Chapter 953: Old Acquaintance
"Don't want anything else, just 'mushroom soup' and 'specialty sausage' know?"
In Richard's observation, Gawain spoke up, with a resolute attitude, telling the waiter that his request did not need to be changed in any way.
"But...... The staple ......" the waiter stopped talking, and thought about trying to convince Gawain to try other dishes.
"No, I don't. Gawain stared at the waiter, spitting out emphasis.
"Okay. In Gao Wen's displeased gaze, the waiter reluctantly gave up the recommended dishes, spread his hands and said, "Then the guest, you find a place to sit down, and when the kitchen is ready, I will send it to you immediately." ”
"Hmm. It's better to hurry. Gao Wen said, leaving this sentence behind, turned around from the front of the bar. Squinted around the hall, picking a spot of his choice, and finally landed on a corner away from the center, not too far from Richard.
After choosing, Gao Wen walked over, sat on the seat, put his face on the table with an ice face and crossed hands, revealing a look of "no one should enter", waiting silently.
Ten minutes later.
The waiter, holding the mushroom soup in one hand and the special sausage in the other, came to Gawain's approach and carefully placed the dishes containing the two dishes on the table. After finishing, he looked at Gawain and asked softly, "Guest, do you need anything else?"
"You're a little slow to serve food. Gawain glanced at the waiter and said expressionlessly.
The waiter's expression froze, he didn't know how to answer, he was already trying his best to urge the kitchen to do it, it was impossible to be faster: "This ......"
"Alright, so be it, go ahead. Gawain waved his hand, and then thought of something, and called the waiter who turned around, "By the way, take this." ”
As he spoke, Gawain pulled out a shiny silver coin and threw it at the waiter.
"Do you want to get your money, guest?" the waiter grabbed the silver coin, his eyes lit up, and he looked at Gawain with a bit of hope in his eyes and asked—a silver coin was more than enough to pay for Gawain's meal, and the rest would be quite generous if he didn't find money as his tip.
Gao Wen was about to speak, but after listening to the waiter's words, his lips suddenly closed, and he swallowed the words "all as your tip". Because it suddenly occurred to him that his current identity was not the orthodox leader of the Demon Costume Knight, but just a nameless eater in disguise. His figure is already iconic enough, and if he is generous enough to surprise the waiter, he will definitely impress the other party, which is not what he wants.
So......
Gao Wen's eyebrows raised, looked at the waiter and said, "Leave three copper coins for you as a tip, and give me the rest." ”
"Yes. The waiter pursed his lips, his shoulders plummeted, his eyes darkened, and there was no longer hope in his eyes.
The tips he usually gets are generally between one copper coin and five copper coins, and occasionally a generous guest will get a tip of more than ten copper coins, and of course, there are misers who don't give one. Gawain's tip, which was almost average, did not disappoint him, but there were no surprises - in a sense, it was also a disappointment.
"Please wait. The waiter looked at Gao Wendao, turned and walked to the high platform, and after a while walked back, and put a handful of copper coins on the table.
"Guest, your mushroom soup is twenty-two copper coins, the sausage is fifteen copper coins, and after deducting the tip three copper coins, here are sixty copper coins. The waiter said.
Gawain glanced at the copper coins on the table, his gaze paused for a moment, as if to confirm that the number was correct. After that, he grabbed all the copper coins, put them in his pocket, and waved to the waiter: "Okay, you go, don't worry about me anymore, I will call you if there is something." ”
"Good. The waiter said without joy or sorrow, turned around and walked back to the back of the bar. For him, Gawain was just a bit of a tall looking diner, nothing special.
Watching the waiter walk away with the rest of his eyes, Gawain picked up the clay bowl containing the mushroom soup and poured it towards the shallow plate of sausages.
After pouring it full, put the pottery bowl in his hand, put his hands on the table with his hands staggered, and waited silently again.
This is more than 20 minutes.
At the table not far away, Richard had almost finished all his food, and finally a man appeared. The young man with triangular eyes was not alone, the other party was wearing gray-brown clothes, looking more old-fashioned, walking to Gawain's table like a stroll, glancing at the sausage plate on Gawain's table, and asked: "This guest, you look a little bored, do you want to have some fun?"
Gawain raised his head, looked at the gray-brown man seriously, and asked aloud, "What's the fun?"
"It's fun. ”
"Then you have ...... from the north"
After a few brief conversations, Gawain stood up, nodded at the gray-brown man, and said, "Lead the way." ”
"Okay, please come with me. The gray-brown man led Gawain out.
......
Walking out of the tavern door and into the street, Gawain and the taupe man came from the alley where Richard had been.
"Bang bang bang, bang bang!"
The fist landed on the gray-white wooden door, and the familiar knock sounded.
With a "squeak", the door opened, revealing the thin old man.
The thin old man obviously knew Gao Wen, even if he wore makeup, he didn't say anything, and let him in.
Gawain was not polite, and stepped into the door, taking a look at the inner workings of the building.
It is a two-story stone building, and the entrance is the hall, and on the left side of the hall is a wooden staircase that surrounds the entrance. There are more than ten rooms on the first and second floors, and you can see people constantly coming and going in some rooms, but no one is making a loud noise, and the half-worn blue carpet on the floor absorbs the sound, it is very quiet.
After glancing around, Gawain looked at the thin old man, smiled, and said as if he was joking between friends: "Garcia, your place this time is much better than before." If this continues, I doubt you'll ever set up your hideout in the courtyard of the Pombo family, the most luxurious place in all of Pombo City as far as I know. ”
The thin old man named Garcia shrugged: "I would like to, but we can't afford it." ”
After a pause and a wry smile, Garcia said: "To be honest, settling here is already a bit out of our budget." However, it's all for safety, no way. The Pombo family has long been aware of our existence, and the search is getting stricter and stricter, and most of the people used in the search are escort troops and wizards, not the magic knights you command, and it is difficult to get information in advance, so we must keep moving to ensure that we are not exposed. ”
