Chapter 3: Horn Town

Horn Town, located in Yorkshire, is close to the Emerald Capital, and it only takes about three hours to ride a horse.

Dean, of course, doesn't have horses, though; After all, horses were now a luxury to him - so after disposing of the corpses of Sally and his men, changing out of their conspicuous uniforms, and making a slight change in appearance, he left Dean near the Emerald Capital, and spent a full day traveling into the town of Horn, Yorkshire.

It was a town on his way to the Knights of Fecharon—in fact, according to the map, it wasn't particularly necessary, and even a bit of a detour.

However, according to Dean's memory, there will be an incident in the last few days - and this matter is closely related to him, whether it is for his future development or to weaken the power of the deputy head of the Central Knights, this matter must be involved in it!

Therefore, Dean would rather go around and choose this place as the first stop on his journey.

Of course, in Horntown, he also needs to replenish some of the necessary equipment.

Although Horn Town is not large, because of its proximity to the Emerald Capital, it has become a foothold for northerners, especially northern merchants, before they really enter the Emerald Capital; Therefore, even in a small town, it is quite prosperous; Not only are there taverns, restaurants, grocery stores, but even a tailor's shop.

"I need a cape, the kind with a hood, preferably waterproof!"

A silver xso was wiped out, and with a flick of Dean's thumb, it fell into the hands of the tailor-shopkeeper with a shining sheen, which made the other man's smile even brighter, and, in addition to the cloak, gave him a pair of leather gloves—not of any kind, but of ordinary animal skins; Therefore, even with the addition of this pair of gloves, the other side is profitable; At least twenty coppers or so.

This is obviously a very good business for the tailor shop owner.

So, as Dean left, the owner of the tailor's shop was very courteous until Dean entered the restaurant next to the tailor's shop, which was a restaurant that was perfectly in keeping with the location of Clarion Town, located in the middle of the town, making it very convenient for merchants to come and go.

In the restaurant, there are seats for townspeople and ordinary merchants, and there are also private rooms for the real nobles upstairs.

Dean's ordinary dress was undoubtedly introduced into the dismissal-

"What do you need, sir?"

The waiter, a young man, was very energetic and asked with a smile.

"I want a roast beef, a ham-leg and a glass of ale! Remember to be fast, in order to get rid of those goods, I am already hungry and close to my back! ”

Dean, who was very quick to speak, gave five coppers - and the food he had just asked for was worth four copper at most; Obviously, the extra one is a tip.

"No problem, sir!"

The waiter's smile grew brighter, and after that, without a trace, he put one of the five coppers into his pocket, and then walked briskly into the kitchen.

As the waiter brought out the food, Dean's eyes casually looked around, like a guest waiting for the food to be served; However, compared to the true casualness of these guests, Dean's gaze has its own purpose.

It's just that the disguise is so good that it can't be seen at all - in his career as an assassin, Dean has done this kind of thing I don't know how many times, and it has almost become Dean's instinct for the sake of the completion rate of the mission.

Most of the casual seats in the restaurant were some merchants, with a few locals, and from their clothing and the words of their fellow diners, Dean Xun could tell the difference; No doubt there was no one among them that he was waiting for—so naturally, Dean began to look upstairs.

Soon, a private room caught his attention.

Compared to the other three private rooms, this private room on the far right is nothing special, except that there is an extra person at its door.

The dress of leather armor and short sword shows the identity of the other party's guards, especially the look of vigilance, which is even more confirmable.

Dean's gaze was avoided before the other man could glance at him, but the corner of his eye kept looking there.

The cacophony of the restaurant was too loud for Dean to make out the inside of the private room, but judging by the guard's nervous expression, it was clear that something inside was at its most critical juncture—and while the guard could be called dutiful, he was certainly not very good at it.

If he is a true master, he will not have any expression on his face at any time, even after stabbing a short sword into the chest of an enemy and crushing the heart, he will be expressionless, as if he were the most cold-blooded assassin - in Dean's opinion, first-class guards and first-class assassins are the same; It's just that the latter is more hidden.

Of course, such a situation is naturally readily seen by Dean.

If there really is a good hand, with his current state of 'whitewashing', it will undoubtedly make it difficult for Yiqiē.

"Ahh

As Dean took a closer look, a scream burst out of the private room, and even the noise of the restaurant could not hide such a high-pitched scream—a woman, and a younger woman.

Dean subconsciously judged the owner of the screaming sound, and the eyes of the other guests in the restaurant also turned to the private room where the screaming sound came from; However, after seeing the guard's fierce expression with a short sword in hand, most of the guests who had kept their senses lowered their heads and continued to eat their food.

The waiter, who had received Dean's tip, ran quickly down the street, shouting, "Guards, guards! ”

At the same time, the owner of the restaurant ran upstairs, of course, he was not alone, and he was followed by a fat man - the greasy body and the boning knife he was carrying, indicating the identity of this man, this is a cook.

"Stop!"

The dutiful guard shouted fiercely, sword in hand.

"Dear guests, don't get me wrong......"

The owner of the restaurant is a thin man with the smile of a businessman, and at this time he is trying to make his smile appear more sincere, so as to gain the favor of the other party.

"The lady inside is my wife, and it's just helping me with my business here, not the ...... Moreover, my attendant had just gone to report to the guards because of his panic, and you must know that our captain Mark was a very serious captain of the guards; So, I think we had a little bit of a misunderstanding! ”

With a smile, the owner of the restaurant continued to explain, but the meaning was clear enough, and the raised voice was obviously not talking to the guard.

"Well, there was a misunderstanding!"

A voice came from the box, and then, the door of the box opened, and a woman with a panicked face ran out with her chest clutched, and quickly ran downstairs at the signal of the restaurateur, and behind her, a fat, but well-dressed man walked out slowly.

"Honorable lord, I have no intention of offending you......"

When the owner of the restaurant saw the fat middle-aged man, he immediately bent down, and so did the cook behind him; As for that boning knife?

He had long been hidden behind him.

If he dares to show his sword in front of such a big man, then he will not be far from death.

Syllable!

The restaurateur who had just straightened up before he stumbled with a resounding slap in the face, and then, before he could react, he was hit in the lower abdomen; Instantly, the skinny restaurateur rolled down the stairs like a ball.

"Now, the misunderstanding is clear!"

The fat middle-aged man took out a white handkerchief and wiped the right hand of the restaurant owner just now, looking at the appearance of the other party's head breaking and bleeding and falling to the ground, he nodded with satisfaction, and then turned to look at the silent downstairs, everyone who looked at him lowered their heads and staggered their eyes.

This made him even more satisfied.

And Dean was equally satisfied, although he pretended to bow his head in a hurry, but only the moment he saw the other party, Dean completely confirmed the other party's identity: Lu Man. Pola.

The uncle of the deputy head of the Central Knights, the head of the underground business of the Bora family.

His main goal this time, or rather...... The interest that the other party needs to pay!

At this time, there was a jumble of footsteps in the streets, as well as the loud sound of scabbards colliding.

Such a sound made the noble lord frown, and gave up the idea of arresting the woman again, after all, she was just a restaurant proprietor, although she was a little beautiful, but it was not worth his ** share, especially outside the Emerald Capital, it would not be good to really cause any trouble, you must know that the Marquis of York is not something to mess with.

What's more, he also came with an important mission, thinking of his brother, who is also the patriarch of the Bora family, this noble lord changed his original mind; He waved at the guard, whispered a few words in the latter's ear, and the honorable lord continued into the box, while the guard went downstairs and out of the restaurant.

After a few moments, return again.

And in the meantime, the footsteps that had just sounded, and the sound of the scabbard colliding, also disappeared.
