Chapters 865-868

Chapter 865: The Task Thrown Ahead

"Your Highness, put on your cloak and put it on. It was humid in the middle of the night. Able, who had arrived later, noticed the quiet and mournful atmosphere of the scene, and leaned over to Kant's side and whispered to him.

"Hmm." Kant came back to his senses, glanced at Able, and nodded softly in response.

Able carefully draped Kant over the sheepskin coat in his hand. Then he stepped aside.

"Bandak, add some more wood to the fireplace in the room." Kant raised his head and instructed Bandak, "Go downstairs and get some in the back kitchen." ”

"Yes." Bandak nodded. Then he went to the fireplace and inspected the bucket where the firewood was kept, and when he found that there was not much firewood left, he threw the rest into the fire. And he informed Kant that he was going downstairs to get firewood.

"I'll go with you." Seeing that Bandak had already walked near the entrance, Abel hurriedly spoke.

Bandak was stunned and stood still. And Abel, after obtaining Kant's consent, first unlocked the door and walked out.

"Wait for me." Bandak picked up the bucket and chased him out the door.

After the two left, only Kant and Trubin were left in the room.

The firewood in the main hall is burning more and more, and the temperature in the room is also rising.

After sorting out his emotions, Trubin took off his gloves. He said to Kant: "I'm sorry, but your majesty made you laugh." ”

"It's fine." With an encouraging smile on his face, Kant waved his hand and said.

"The Inspectorate hasn't figured out where Jackie is hiding yet." Trubin's eyes moistened again, and he said, "I can't believe he would do something like that?" Maybe I shouldn't have adopted him seven years ago. ”

After listening to this sentence of Trubin, Kant fell silent.

In the world he experienced in his previous life, it has become the consensus of everyone not to interfere with other people's lives. It is a very difficult thing for human beings to be inherently small, and to meddle in the fate of others when they receive the blessings of God.

Before coming into this world, Kant had always had the attitude that 'other people's affairs have nothing to do with me'. However, with the memories of his previous life, after coming to this world, his values are loosening little by little.

Maybe I don't know myself as well as I thought.

"The bastards who bullied Jackie have been sent away by me." Tubin said indignantly: "Such a person must not be allowed to stay in the hotel." ”

"Hmm." Kant nodded slightly: "This result can be regarded as they deserve it." ”

"Your Highness, we're back." Holding half a bucket of firewood, Bandak stood at the entrance with Able who accompanied him, and greeted Kant.

"Come on in." Kant beckoned and said, "It should be quite cold outside." ”

"It's a little bit." Bandak replied as he rubbed his hands together after placing the iron tong by the fireplace.

"When we went downstairs, we found that many of the guests' rooms were still lit by candlesticks. I guess we didn't get much sleep tonight. Abel reported.

"The waiter in the back kitchen told me that I had run out of firewood this month. Let's take the opportunity to do more. I had to survive the last two days. Bandak grinned, "Then I told the soldier who had not yet slept to go to him and get firewood." ”

Able quickly gave Bandak a look, signaling that the innkeeper was still here.

"Oh, oh, no." Bandak covered his mouth and quickly explained, "This waiter told me..."

"It's my fault that the people below didn't take the initiative to tell me when something happened." Trubin interrupted Bandak's clarification and spoke.

"I still have to find a suitable candidate quickly and replace the position of Mr. Bookkeeper." Kant said in a round game: "Otherwise, these waiters will encounter some trouble, and I don't know who to talk to." ”

"I don't pay much attention to who is in this shop on weekdays, and Philit has always been busy with jobs such as hiring workers, so where can I find this suitable person now?" Trubin said distressedly.

The four people in the main hall were all lost in thought, and the atmosphere became quiet again.

"Boss, our group has been living in this hotel for a long time." Kant advised: "Otherwise, in the coming days, we will pay more attention to you." See if you can find someone to make it into? ”

"All right," Tedubin agreed, "trouble everyone." I won't be in this town for more than a few days, and I'll be leaving for the outside of the city the day after tomorrow. I wonder how long you'll be staying at the hotel? ”

"We have a mission in our hands, and when it's over, we'll leave the island." Abel thought for a moment and replied, "I think I'll stay for at least half a month." ”

"That's great." A rare smile appeared on Trubin's face, Kant and others were willing to stay and give some support to this hotel, and from the bottom of his heart, he was very moved.

"If the boss comes back before then, I think we'll give solid advice." Kant promised.

"Okay." Trubin nodded and said, "Then I'll say goodbye first, I'm really sorry to come to bother me in the middle of the night." ”

Kant stood up and said, "Boss, you still have to stay in this town for two days, don't you?" If there is anything to say, we still have a chance to continue talking. ”

"Yes." After a formal salute, Trubin left the room under the watchful eye of the three.

"It's a problem, we haven't found anyone we're looking for, and now we have to pick out a bookkeeper for this inn." Abel walked back to the main hall, leaning down on the tea table in frustration and spoke.

"What's this, whether it's suitable for business or not, this strength is still obvious in people's temperament." Bandak said unconcernedly.

"You have to choose this candidate. At least give an explanation to the owner. After leaving this sentence, Kant turned and left.

When Able went to look for him, Kant was changing his yukata and preparing to go to bed.

After a conversation with Trubin, Kant was even more sleepy at this time, and it was estimated that he would sleep until noon tomorrow.

"Your Majesty has returned to his room." Bandak yawned and said, "Let's talk about the matter tomorrow." I'm going to have to rest, too. ”

"That'll do well." Able waved his hand at Bandak and said, "Now let you go back to rest, and when I wake you up tomorrow, you will have to wake me up convincingly." ”

"Okay." Bandak didn't hear what Abel said, but casually agreed.

Chapter 866: The soldier who smells the fragrance and sells his art

Able looked at Bandak's departing figure, sighed, and began to stay up all night working alone.

At noon the next day, Kant woke up from his sleep. When he walked out of the bedroom, he found the main hall empty.

"Did the two of them go on patrol?" Kant muttered silently in his heart. Then I went into the bathroom and washed up.

Just as Kant was lying in a barrel filled with hot water to enjoy his leisurely time, the sound of footsteps could be heard outside the bathroom door.

Before Kant could come up with any ideas, Abel's voice came in.

"Your Majesty, we're back from that guild! Michelle brings reliable news! ”

"When did you go?" Kant jumped out of the tank and shouted outside the door, "I'll talk about it when I get out." ”

"Yes!" Ebole's mood was high.

After putting on his padded coat, Kant opened the bathroom door and walked out. The heat in the room immediately shrank back after encountering the cold air outside the door, and the white gas hovered around the door.

Kant glanced at the two sitting at the tea table drinking afternoon tea.

After walking into the tea table, Kant pointed to the pastries on the table and asked suspiciously, "These were sent by the waiter?" ”

"Don't bother them, these are the two of us who went to the back kitchen by ourselves." Bandak took a sip of tea and said nonchalantly.

Looking at the smug looks of the two, Kant raised his eyebrows, sat down in his place, and said, "You guys did a good job, you found a candidate so quickly." Even the mission was completed. Tell me, how? ”

"Actually, it's nothing, I just suddenly remembered that a soldier in the team is good at smelling." When Able saw Kant sit down, he immediately straightened up and sat upright, and explained, "Let their captain take him to the streets near the guild." ”

"That's how the guild people found them?" Kant was amused by Abelle's idea and asked.

"Well," Abel continued, with a look of pride on his face, "Anyway, after the name of the soldier's smell spread down that street, the members of the guild also noticed the existence of the showman. He immediately rushed over and told the soldier that he would invite him to meet with the guild boss at noon tomorrow. ”

"Well, you've got a good idea, but it's a clever one." Kant approvingly.

That guild was secretly in the business of selling drugs. Find a talent like a soldier who sells his art, and the content of the talk is inseparable from the secret production chain.

"It's just a matter of luck." Able replied embarrassedly.

"By the way, what's that soldier's name?" Kant looked up and asked.

"Michelle!" Able responded.

"Will he be able to handle tomorrow's meeting?" It wasn't until this point that Bandak interjected.

"Thisβ€”" Abel had a hesitant look on his face.

"It's nice to think of smelling incense, but I told you at the time: be sure to choose someone who is suitable for dealing with strangers." There was also a hint of concern in Kant's words.

"The boy," Abel said, glancing at Bandak, "has a more lively temperament than the other elven soldiers. It's just that after hearing about the shipwreck, the child's temperament became much quieter. Today I sent them to the vicinity of the guild, and I didn't listen to him much during the whole journey. ”

"The impact of the shipwreck..."Bhandak's expression also became complicated, and he raised his head and turned his gaze to Kant.

Kant was silent for a moment under the gaze of the two. Eventually, he said, "Either way, we'll have to think about how to proceed with this project." Abel is off to a good start, and the rest of the work needs to be done together. ”

"Yes." Abel replied in unison with Bandak.

"After dinner tonight, let's arrange for Michelle and me to meet." Kant thought for a moment and asked.

"Okay." Abel agreed.

After afternoon tea, Bandak and Abel left the inn again. Today, a number of soldiers were sent to escort the innkeepers to the city gates, so they had to rush to the streets to patrol.

Kant walked to the restaurant on the second floor. After passing through the crowded cafeteria, we arrived at the Γ  la carte restaurant.

The chef who cooked him lunch yesterday greeted him and said, "Good afternoon, my lord!" ”

"Hello!" Kant replied with a smile: "Why are there so few people today? ”

"Those people didn't want to stay in the inn, and after breakfast, they went out into the streets." Chef smiled humorously, "But for me, it doesn't make any difference. Anyway, not many people usually come to my place. ”

"I don't think they just haven't tried it, and if they try it once, they'll be hooked on your cooking." Kant blinked and said, "Just like me did with your boss." ”

"Hmm... Hahaha. The chef's face was first wrinkled together, as if imagining the scene Kant was talking about, and after a while, he laughed heartily and said, "Thank you, what are you going to eat today?" ”

"Same as yesterday." Kant sat down at the window, and after looking at the scenery for a while, he turned to the chef who was busy in front of the stove and asked, "Didn't the boss come here today?" ”

"The owner left early, but I prepared his breakfast." The chef looked up and confidently said to Kant, "Shrimp and vegetable rolls and peanut pulp." ”

"Hehe," Kant laughed, "the boss is really hard, and he needs to go out to work every day." ”

"The boss's life and rest are really irregular, after all, this hotel is all about him." The chef replied as he cut the cherry tomatoes in half, "Fortunately, his body is not bad, though." As long as you adjust your schedule well, it will be no different from other people of the same age. ”

"Actually, the hotel was running quite well before we arrived." Kant said softly, "Why doesn't the boss give himself more time to rest?" ”

"Huh." The chef laughed softly and said, "My lord, look at the street in front of the store, how many people will pass by?" The owner came to the island 10 years ago and opened the shop in this kind of place. His heart wasn't on running the shop at all. ”

"You can see it." Kant raised his eyebrows and said, "Are you interested in going into more detail?" ”

The chef smiled and raised his head, looked at Kant, shook his head, put the index finger of his left hand on his lips, and said, "This kind of thing, people like us can't talk about it much." ”

Chapter 867: The Clue Left by the Chef

"Huh." Kant looked away and said, "If you don't want to say it, forget it." It's just that I think the people in your town, one by one, are really unfathomable. ”

"It's not like that." The chef put down his cooking and defended, "Just like me, I'm an ordinary cook in front of you. Isn't my identity just a cook? ”

"I'm too lazy to take care of you." Kant just thought that the cook was very funny, and that he would be surrounded by any topic he argued with, so he waved his hand and continued to enjoy the scenery outside the window.

The cook chuckled for a moment, then consciously silenced.

After more than ten minutes, the delicious lunch was served on the table, and while Kant was arranging the napkins, he found that the chef had brought another cup of peanut milk.

"I talked a lot just now," the chef apologized with a smile as he stood at the table, "This cup of peanut milk is my reparation to you, my lord." I hope you can forget the mistakes of the villain. ”

"No, no." Kant hurriedly refused: "We had a good conversation just now. Why are you doing this? ”

When the chef heard this, the expression on his face became serious, and he said, "This peanut milk is our boss's favorite, and it is also my best." Please be sure to accept it. ”

Kant looked up at the chef for a moment, then finally nodded in compromise and said, "Okay, let me try what it tastes like." ”

"Thank you very much." The cook breathed a sigh of relief and, after saluting, left the table.

After watching the cook leave, Kant picked up his knife and fork and began to enjoy his first meal of the day. When eating, people are always in a happy mood. In the gap between the stops, Kant caught a glimpse of the peanut pulp placed in the corner of the plate.

Against the backdrop of silver cups, this simple drink becomes mysterious and luxurious.

"When is this drinking?" Kant asked softly as he looked over the open stove. It turned out that it was empty, and the chef who cooked the dishes had left.

Kant raised his eyebrows in surprise, grabbed the handle of the cup with his right hand, brought the peanut pulp given by the chef to his face, put it to his lips, and took a sip: the taste was really mellow and fragrant, and the peanut particles were finely ground.

Kant drank the whole cup of peanut pulp in one go, and as he put the empty cup back in place, a crisp sound reached Kant's ears.

A key was placed on the coaster where the cups were placed.

Kant's eyes immediately became alert: the key must have been left by the chef, but why did he invite himself to meet him so secretly?

"This peanut pulp is our boss's favorite and my best friend. Please be sure to accept it. What the chef said not so long ago was replayed in Kant's mind.

"Is it about the innkeeper?" Kant took a deep breath and silently took the key into his sleeve. After making sure that there was no one around, he hurriedly left the restaurant.

After walking out of the dining room, Kant stood at the top of the stairs and hesitated for a moment, but chose to go back to his room first and sort out what had just happened.

It was about half past three in the afternoon, and Kant, who had returned to his room, closed the curtains in the main hall, sat down at the tea table, took out the key in his pocket, and studied it carefully.

The key was made of copper and iron, and now it was rusted. Going to the restaurant for lunch today is unpredictable, and Kant has never seen a chef leave the stove between the time the order is placed and the time he waits for the dish to be served. The chef carries this key with him, and it is indeed easy to rust in a humid environment like the kitchen.

The key was engraved with the number '503'.

But this hotel doesn't have a fifth floor, so where does '503' mean?

Kant carefully recalled in his mind what the chef had said earlier, and during the conversation, he did not leave information about the time of the meeting.

"This room..."Kant, who could not find a clue, was ready to ask for the answer himself.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door, and Kant was so frightened by the sudden sound that he was breathless. Alertly responded: "Who? ”

"Your Majesty Kant, I am Molière." A shrill voice came through the crack in the door.

"Molier?" Kant thought about it for a long time before he remembered that the owner of the name was the dwarf who had openly choked him in the lobby yesterday, and he got up and asked, "What is the matter?" ”

"The group of people who attacked the hotel yesterday, I don't know what the relationship was, was released today." The dwarf explained aloud.

"Wait, you come in and say." When Kant heard this, he quickened his pace, walked to the entrance, opened the door of the guest room, and greeted the dwarf in front of him.

"Thank you." The dwarf immediately walked to the guest room, sat down at the tea table before Kant, lifted the teapot, and drank heavily. After relieving himself, he wiped his mouth and continued to Kant who was sitting across from him: "That group of people is so presumptuous that after being released by acquaintances in the supervision center, they immediately walked to the tavern on Bicolin Boulevard. It happened that they met the soldiers who were escorting the residents out of the city, and the two groups of people the guys and got into a fight. ”

"What's going on? Who did it first? Kant said with a frown.

"Well, this... The orc man spoke too badly, and even commented on the families of the Carradian soldiers. So one of us couldn't help but make a move. The dwarf explained as he observed Kant's face.

"Where are they now?" Kant let out a long breath and asked.

"I was escorted to the surveillance post by the Acropolis soldiers on the street." The dwarf said, "That's why I came to your Highness, you have to hurry over." ”

"You have been calculated, and I can't personally intervene in this matter, otherwise you will fall into the trap of the other party impartially." Kant calmed down and said, "Do they know about it, Bandak? ”

"Well, Bandak and Master Able are rushing to the monitoring center after learning the news." After listening to Kant's inference, the dwarf was stunned and responded: "Your Highness, if you don't go to this matter in person, it is estimated that it will not be settled." ”

Kant glanced at him and said slowly, "I can't be distracted by their tricks anymore, that orc man is cannon fodder for the Dark Side Order." Now to clean them up is like you going to cut down a tree, but you only care about sweeping the fallen leaves under the tree. I have more important things to do now. ”

β€œ... Original... Come so. The dwarf was frightened by the aura emanating from Kant's body, and nodded timidly. After a while, he withdrew.

Chapter 868: The dispute in front of the mansion

Kant sat in silence for a while after the dwarf had left, and then walked to the lobby of the inn. I found the guy who was busy in the back kitchen, and asked, "Do you know where the chef in charge of cooking is in the restaurant on the second floor?" ”

"That chef doesn't rest in the hotel, you didn't find him in the restaurant, my lord, you probably just went back to your home." The guy was stunned and replied.

"And when will he come back?" Kant asked.

"This chef was invited by our boss from somewhere, and people can come and leave whenever they want. We don't know. The guy introduced.

"Well, thank you." Kant walked out of the back kitchen, slightly disappointed. After sitting at the cafΓ© in the lobby for a while, he finally decided to find out the whereabouts of room '503' in this hotel during the time he had not been able to see the chef.

On the other side, Bandak and Able, who rushed to the gate of the supervision center, happened to run into a group of orc men with blue noses and swollen faces.

The seven or eight nomads took the initiative to walk in front of the two, and the beast man at the head frowned and said, "Why are you?" What about the one who is your leader? ”

"You have set off this little storm, and you can't reach the edge of Your Highness's shoes." Able clenched his fists and said, "Give me back to your cell and squat!" ”

"It is up to you to save your brothers and men? I'm afraid it's not enough. The orc man shook his head and continued.

"Where are they now?" Bandak asked.

"I don't know, after all, we've only been in this temporary detention center." The orc man grinned at the people around him and mocked, "What kind of scenery is this cell, we really haven't seen it. ”

"I told you not to get in the way!" Able kicked the orc man in the waist, sending him back several meters.

"Abel, let's go!" Bandak's forehead had already burst with green tendons, and after enduring it again and again, he spoke to Abel.

Looking at the two who left, the rest of the nomads gathered around the beast men, and said indignantly: "These two people are really not cleaned up. ”

"Our mission is done, go to the bar." The orc man put away the mocking face just now, and said indifferently: "The more angry these two are, the faster we can reach our goal. It's a little bit of a trifle. ”

The orc man left the supervision center with the support of his younger brother beside him.

Now Able and Bandak were overwhelmed by their anger, and walked to the front desk of the Inspectorate and asked, "We are the soldiers and officers of Calradia, and our men were sent here by the Acropolis army before. We're here to pick them up. ”

"Youβ€”" The staff member in charge of the reception noticed the anger in the eyes of the two of them, and said timidly: "Please wait a minute, I'll go to Captain Vermont." He led the team to send the people. ”

"Okay." Abel promised, "We'll wait for him here." ”

The clerk quickly spread his legs and ran towards an official hall in the hallway.

Five minutes passed, and Bandak and Abel stood motionless in front of the front desk, and passers-by began to focus on the two men.

"This person is a student, it can't be a newly transferred staff member in this school." The businessman, who was often on the lookout, whispered.

"It seems to be a human race and an elven race, judging by the clothes of these two people. It should be an outsider. Another member of the crowd said, "What are they doing here?" ”

"I just received the news that today on the avenue leading to the city gate, Bauen's gang and a group of Terran soldiers fought." A passer-by spoke to his companion after hearing the discussion of the people around him.

"Baun?" His companion was surprised: "Then these two people are not here to ransom people, and those who oppose Bao En will not end well." ”

"People from outside the island want to poach people from the supervision center, but they probably don't believe it."

Bandak and Abel silently listened to the comments of the people around them, and snorted coldly in their hearts: It's not okay if this person doesn't take us away today.

At this moment, the waiter who had just left walked over with a half-orc man in uniform. Introducing Bandak and Able, "This is Captain Vermont who is in charge of handling this. He is a first-class officer in the office. ”

"Hello." Vermont held out his hand and greeted Bandak and Able.

"Hello." Bandak and Abel responded politely.

Glancing at the crowd of onlookers, Fermont smiled at Bandak and Able and suggested, "There are a lot of people here, so let's go to the official hall and talk about it." ”

"Okay." Bandak agreed.

Pretending to pass by inadvertently, the passers-by who were eavesdropping on the side felt bored and took the initiative to disperse.

Fumont led the two to a small business room on the first floor, which was about the same layout as the room where Able had last met with the gnomes, but the space was much smaller.

After motioning for the two of them to sit down in the leather chairs, Vermont folded his hands on the table and said to Bandak and Abel, "You're here for the incident that happened this morning, aren't you?" ”

"Yes." Bandak nodded.

"May I ask what the Inspectorate has given to our soldiers?" Able asked.

"Three months in prison, after all, the impact of this incident is indeed quite large." Formont bowed his head and pondered for a moment, then said: "The decision is made by the judge, and in the supervision office, the power of the judge is far greater than that of all of us. Therefore, even if you come here in person today, it is estimated that it will not be possible to take people away. ”

"Three months? Just for a group fight? Bandak said angrily, "What about the gang? They had just been released today, and they went out of their way to find our people to retaliate, so why could they leave here without any responsibility? ”

"Thisβ€”" Fermont explained, with a look of embarrassment on his face, "This group of people were acquitted in yesterday's case. So the judge just focused on their role in the dispute. ”

"Not guilty?" Able's eyes widened, and he said, "What about the death of Filit, and what about the injuries suffered by the guests?" How were they found not guilty? ”

"Isn't the man who killed Felit a waiter? The residents didn't come forward to testify, so the attack wasn't a thing...", Fermont explained slowly.

"Fart!" Bandak pushed the table away and yelled at the officer in front of him, "I think your prison is here to clear those bastards. The homeless people on your island believe this, we don't believe it! You have to hand them over today! ”
