Chapter 39: A Chance Encounter
Originally, because he was in a hurry all night, and he continued to use his ability after reaching his goal, Xiu Nan was already exhausted. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Finally, when the inhabitants of the Aldo Kingdom began to move outside, Xiu Nanqiang cheered up and began to look for a suitable corner for his appearance.
It was not easy to find a remote alley, and after carefully observing that there was indeed no one around, Xiunan slowly surfaced to the ground.
"Ha~~~" Xiu Nan, who appeared on the ground, couldn't help but sigh, he just wanted to lie on the ground and sleep beautifully, but he also knew that now was not the time.
He had to find a place to stay, or he'd have to hide underground all night tonight.
Shunan slowly walked out of the alley and observed his surroundings.
He wasn't familiar with the place at all, but he couldn't show his strangeness to it.
Walking down the street, Shunan wandered around like an idle resident, secretly observing the situation around him.
However, to Xiunan's disappointment, there is nothing strange here, it seems that the pirates who patrolled around last night are all illusions, and the residential area at this time is no different from what Xiunan saw near the base, they are all bustling.
It seems that these pirates don't dare to be too publicistic during the day, Xiunan secretly observed the surroundings, and did not find anything abnormal, of course, it is not ruled out that there are pirates hiding and observing.
Shunan also didn't directly find a hotel to stay in, because he wasn't sure if there were pirates watching near the hotel, and since they were already so vigilant, it was impossible for them to relax their surveillance of the hotel.
If you really can't do it, you can only dig a hole in the ground, Xiu Nan thought silently.
If he made up his mind that he couldn't find a place to live, Xiunan, who lived underground, began to walk in the direction of the restaurant, he hadn't eaten since last night, and he was already hungry at this time.
Looking for the nearest restaurant, Xiunan pushed the door open and entered.
At this time, the restaurant is a bit deserted, and it is not yet the peak time for dining, and most of the seats in the restaurant are empty, with only a few people.
However, there was a table of guests that attracted Shunan's attention, after all, there was a fishman with wavy hairstyle among the guests at that table.
Fish-people are not uncommon in the New World, but this is also the first time that Shunan has seen what fish-people look like.
Although he was curious when he saw the fishman for the first time, Xiunan simply glanced at it and didn't pay attention, otherwise it would be too rude.
However, the combination of a fish-man with two humans who knew that they were still minors at a glance was a bit rare, and Shunan sat down at the bar and ordered a piece of food and thought silently.
Shunan remembers that the relationship between fish people and humans is relatively cold, although there are some fish people who have a more friendly attitude towards humans, but such a combination does make people a little concerned.
Shunan was eating his food while he thought he was observing.
Of course, Xiunan's self-conscious hidden observation was discovered by them as soon as possible.
"Haku, the guy who just came in is watching us. Since Haku had his back to Shunan, he didn't notice it for a while, but Kela and Sabo noticed it when Shunan looked at it, and whispered a reminder to Haku.
They also often form squads to carry out missions, and they have already received professional training for these.
"Then let him observe and not expose himself. Haku didn't know if Shunan was a pirate or not, so he reminded softly.
Their conversations are all about to eat with their lips shaking slightly, and others don't even know that they are talking, but are eating normally.
This time, they also accidentally learned that someone had secretly purchased a batch of weapons from the underground black market and shipped them to the Aldo Kingdom, so they came to the Aldo Kingdom to investigate the situation.
Three years ago, a new force suddenly appeared on the underground black market, wantonly selling weapons in large quantities, and many countries were plunged into the turmoil of war.
And that force made a lot of war money by buying and selling arms, and there is a faint tendency to become the leader of the dark world.
The revolutionary army has been investigating this sudden force for a long time, but it has not found any clues.
Taking advantage of the fact that someone was buying arms from that force, the three of them formed a team and came to the kingdom of Aldor, hoping to find out who was behind that force.
However, after coming to the Aldor Kingdom, they found that it was not only weapons that came to the Aldor Kingdom, but even some powerful pirates who had reached an agreement with the person behind the scenes.
The presence of these pirates made it difficult for them to get around here, and they were almost discovered by the pirates several times.
But even so, they still didn't achieve anything.
Such a tricky situation made the three of them extremely distressed, these people were so vigilant that the iron bucket of defense gave them no chance to get closer.
After eating, they got up and left with a smile, no different from normal people.
Seeing that there was nothing strange about them, Shunan also gave up observing them and continued to fill his stomach.
He still needs to go to the place where the pirates gather tonight to find out the news, and he can't replenish his strength now.
.................................
It was soon evening, and Shunan began to prepare to infiltrate the tavern that had been occupied by pirates to see if he could hear anything useful.
After coming to the outside of the pirate's cordon, Xiu Nan began to dive underground, slowly moving in the direction of the tavern, and Xiu Nan was extremely careful in the process of moving, for fear of making any noise and being discovered by the pirates standing guard above.
It was only with great difficulty that he moved to the underground of the tavern, but the sound of laughter and the clashing of wine glasses from above mixed up so that Shunan couldn't hear the pirates' conversation at all.
As a last resort, Shunan had to slowly move upwards, and only stopped when he was less than a few centimeters from the floor of the tavern.
Now Shunan is almost eavesdropping on the floor of the tavern, and if he is not careful, he may be discovered by the people above, and Shunan can even clearly feel the vibration passed down when someone walks by on his head!
When the footsteps stopped above, Xiunan couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, he thought he had been discovered, so he could only lie motionless in the dirt and be ready to sink into the depths at any time, but fortunately, the man only stayed for a short time and left.
Sensing the departure of the person who stayed on his head, Shunan couldn't help but let out a long sigh, today's encounter was too exciting for him.
Luckily, however, he could barely hear the conversations of the people above him from where he was, and although these conversations were mixed with the shouts of other pirates from time to time, he might still be able to get some useful information if he was careful to distinguish them.
