Chapter 6: Morning at the Hotel
The two of them looked at each other when they heard this www.biquge.info and finally stopped talking, but left the bar one after the other, and at this time the elf beauty turned around and came to me.
"Little brother, I'm sorry for the trouble, you must have heard what we said just now, in short, you must not tell me everything that happened here tonight, otherwise even I may not be able to guarantee your safety."
"I understand."
The elf beauty seemed very satisfied with my answer, and then she turned her head to look at Ellie in my arms, and the little girl was so frightened that she couldn't believe it, and the elf beauty reached out and touched her head, her eyes were full of pity.
"Poor child, she must have been frightened..."
At first I thought she was just trying to appease us, but after a closer look it didn't feel like it, anyway, her sympathy for Ellie seemed to be from the bottom of her heart, and at that moment she gave me the feeling of a big sister looking at her frightened sister, and it wasn't until much later that I realized that there was a reason why she was acting like this.
"Okay, it's not too early, you guys should hurry up, and remember that today's incident should never be mentioned to anyone."
I nodded, picked up Ellie and walked out, for fear that I would see the flaws in the other party after staying for a long time, but when I just walked past the elf beauty, the other party suddenly stopped me again.
"Wait."
My heart sank at the time, and my heart said Could it be that the other party has already noticed it? I had the heart to run away immediately, and as soon as Ko came to the matter, I hesitated, but I still chose to stop.
"What else do you command?"
The elf beauty bit her lip, and seemed to be a little undecided, and I suddenly became even more nervous when I saw her like this.
"Actually, it's nothing... Just wanted to give you a word of advice, if it's okay, it's best to leave Karadezan as soon as possible, without a moment's delay."
When I heard this, I was stunned and asked, "Why?"
"I can only tell you that something big may happen in Karadezan in the next few days, and if you don't want to be implicated, it's best to stay away." The elf beauty said meaningfully.
Speaking from my heart, I was quite curious about her words, but I was afraid that if I stayed for a long time, I would reveal my flaws, so I had to nod and say, "I understand, thank you for reminding. Goodbye then..."
The elf beauty frowned when she heard this, and muttered in a low voice: "We'd better not meet again..."
"What did you say?"
"Oh, it's nothing, you guys hurry up and take care all the way."
Seeing that the other party didn't seem to want to talk to me more, I was happy to leave this place of right and wrong, and I nodded at the other party, and left the bar with Ellie on my shoulder. This troubled night is finally over...
Originally, I was going to follow the advice of the other party and leave Karadezan in a hurry, anyway, my original agreement with Ellie was just to be her bodyguard and escort her into the city, and now that the task has been completed, I should also retire and be busy with my own business, but I didn't expect that it might be too frightened, Ellie returned to the hotel and couldn't afford to be sick, unconscious all day, and had a high fever, in this case, I couldn't leave her alone? In desperation, I had to continue to stay in the city, fortunately, the owner of the hotel and Ellie are very familiar, after listening to my explanation, immediately introduced a good doctor, after the examination prescribed a prescription, Ellie took the high fever immediately subsided, but it was a full three days after being fully awake...
"Thank you so much these days..."This morning, Ellie drank some of the porridge I cooked, and seemed to regain some of her spirits, and I was able to give a general account of what happened after that night, and the little girl was quite touched after listening to it.
"No way, who asked me to be kind and promised to be your bodyguard, but I didn't expect to cause so much trouble, did my master always say that "it is difficult to be a good person". I said as I cleaned up my plate.
Ellie looked quite guilty when she heard this, and hurriedly said, "I'm sorry for causing you trouble these days. It must have cost me a lot of money, right? I'll double it for you." The little girl said that she wanted to reach for the money bag on the bedside table, but I hurriedly stopped her.
"No need, if I were really a money-grubbing person, I would have run away with your money bag a long time ago, how could I stay until today?"
"But I can't let you waste money in vain."
"It's okay, anyway, money doesn't mean much to me anymore..."
The little girl looked at me curiously and said, "Anyway, I've always thought it's strange, why are you always old-fashioned when you talk when you're not old?"
"Is there one?"
"Of course, it feels like an old man on the verge of death..."
"Oh, that's pretty much it..."
"By the way, I don't know what you do after knowing each other for so long?"
"Why are you asking so much?"
"People are curious, and after the past few days, we can be regarded as having been born and died together, and it is normal to understand each other's situation."
I hesitated for a moment, I don't know whether I should reveal so much to her, but after thinking about it, what the little girl said is not unreasonable, after experiencing the events of the past few days, I feel that I am a lot closer to her, and she may be the last person in my life to deal with, thinking of this I can't help but soften.
"What do you think?" I asked rhetorically.
The little girl thought for a moment and said, "Mercenary!"
I smiled, and it was kind of acquiescing.
"Sure enough, I guess you're doing this..."
"What about you?" This time, I'll ask her.
"This..."The little girl suddenly looked embarrassed when she heard this.
"Hey, hey, don't take you to cheat like this, I've already told you..."
"Alright, alright, actually... I'm a businessman..."The little girl said in a voice so small that she almost couldn't hear it, which showed that even she felt a little unconfident in this answer.
"A merchant who steals?" I deliberately teased.
The little girl suddenly blushed, lowered her head and said reluctantly: "Isn't there no way for people?" In these days, ordinary people have to take risks if they want to make some money..."
"If you do this, your family won't worry?"
"I don't have a family, I'm an orphan..."The little girl's tone was unusually calm when she said this, so calm that it made people feel a little sad.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to..."
"It's fine." The little girl smiled and waved her hand.
"I know you didn't mean to, and... I'm used to these things...."The little girl said, leaning her head on her knees, her eyes revealing a hint of melancholy.
Then there was a silence in the room, a little awkwardly silent.
"That's right." After a long time, I finally decided to break this embarrassment, but I didn't expect that almost at the same time, Ellie and I almost said in unison, and we both looked at each other, and we couldn't help but blush.
"Say it first." Ellie whispered.
"No, let's talk about it first." I scratched my head and said in embarrassment.
Finally, it was the little girl who spoke first: "Who are the three people who appeared in the tavern last time?" Why do they have so much power that a single waist card can make the guards bow down to their ears?"
