"Third child, you've drunk too much again." The old man took a few puffs of hookah, the pale blue smoke floated on his face, and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes became more and more sad.
The bald man sighed silently: "When I met an interesting little ghost, I couldn't help but pour a few more glasses." When I came out to hang out, I was about the same age as him. With a flick of the eye, so many years have passed. ”
The old man laughed dryly: "When you joined the gang back then, you would cry softly when you killed a sick horse, and everyone looked down on you, saying that you were a coward who had no courage." ”
"But in the end, I became a black baboon who kills people without blinking, and the three masters of the storm horse thief group." Walking in the gloomy alleyway, the bald man smiled self-deprecatingly. Tears will dry one day, the alleys are rugged, the walls are cramped, and there is no way to go back.
"Every time you come back, you have to get yourself drunk." The old man shook his head and asked after a while, "Did you get into any hard trouble this trip?" ”
"This month, we robbed two caravans from the Outlands, and we did a clean job, leaving not a single one alive. You also know the rules, we never touch the aristocracy, and generally don't encounter any hard stubble. The black baboon looked at the old man and asked vigilantly, "Golden Tooth, as soon as I return to the city, you are in a hurry to find me, is there something wrong?" ”
The old man, Goldtooth, told Gao Deng in detail about the gang and the gang, and said, "I can't say why, I'm always a little uneasy. Tomorrow when I attend the temple gathering, I will have a good talk with the Boss. ”
They walked through the winding alleys and into the northern part of the city. It was past midnight, and the doors on both sides of the street were closed, except for a few casinos that were brightly lit and faintly noisy in the wind.
The black baboon asked, "Who are we going to deal with now?" ”
"A kid called Freckles. I've checked, and it was he who took the lead in provoking the gangster's fire. Golden Tooth took a deep puff of hookah, "This kid is a mad dog, he swallowed the three streets of the North Gate in two days, and today he went to grab the territory of the Blacksmith Guild in the south." At twelve o'clock tonight, the Blacksmith Guild and several other gangs at the South Gate will be out to teach this messy boy a lesson. I sent more than a dozen brothers to mix in and wait for an opportunity to make a move. The two of us secretly pressed the formation, just in case. ”
The black baboon shrugged: "It's worth catching a little ghost to be so exciting?" ”
"If you don't go into the river, you don't know the depth of the water." Golden Tooth put down the hookah, squinted his eyes and said, "This kid came out of nowhere, and no one knows the details." If he has anything to do with that ghoul, maybe you and I will have to fight together. It's better to be careful than to make a big mistake. ”
The black baboon burped: "Sooner or later, one day, we will be planted in the hands of others." Have you ever seen a horse thief who can die well? ”
"But not now. I will not allow myself to be majestic for the rest of my life, and I will end up in the hands of two imps. Golden Tooth said solemnly, turning right at the mouth of a three-way alley, and then stopped.
A low fence of about two meters separates the road ahead. Inside the walls is a casino, bustling with people and lit up as day. Outside the walls are stinking garbage heaps, lined with sleeping houses, blinded by black lights.
With a "crunch", Golden Tooth pushed open the door of a house and went straight into the house. Inside, a rudimentary wooden ladder leads to a small attic on the roof.
In the shadows behind the wooden ladder, someone stooped forward and handed over two scimitars and two sets of nightwalking clothes with mesh masks attached.
Golden Tooth handed the hookah to the visitor, put on a dark gray night coat, and asked, "That kid named Freckles is still in the casino?" ”
"He entered the casino at nine o'clock in the evening and never left."
"It seems that he is very happy with this newly acquired land. What about the Blacksmiths? ”

o The gang has gathered, and it will be in about half an hour. The security team on duty at night has also been spotted, and even if there is a disturbance here tonight, no one will take care of it. ”
Golden Fang pondered for a moment, then ordered, "Tell a few more brothers to be placed nearby, and block the entrances and exits of all lanes, and I will be foolproof." ”
The visitor was about to be ordered to retreat, but Golden Fang suddenly stopped him and asked, "What about that ghoul at the Magic Lamp Hotel?" ”
"Our man is guarding the door of the hotel, and as soon as he comes out, he will signal."
The gold tooth chin slightly, and the black baboon stepped on the wooden ladder. The windows of the small attic are open, diagonally facing the casino, high above the fence, just in time to get a general view of the casino.
The black baboon walks to the window and observes its surroundings. Everywhere there were black houses, and the secret sentinels of seven or eight horse thieves disguised themselves as beggars and quickly entered the alleys. He poked his head out and looked up, where the ridge of the attic roof stretched all the way, ending just a meter away from the casino's wall.
"It's a good location." The black baboon pulled down the mesh mask and slowly pulled the knife out of its sheath, the bright light of the knife reflected on the pupils, and the murderous gaze was colder than the blade. At this moment, he is no longer a drunkard with vicissitudes of life, but a bloody and ruthless horse bandit.
"Good location. Thank you, Sinbad. Gordon climbed onto the thick chimney barrel on the roof of a restaurant and looked down on the casino five hundred meters below. The night was deep, dark and starless, and the casino was like a bright lantern, reflecting the vague and crowded figures inside.
"Mr. Ghoul, it's my pleasure to do something for you." Sinbad stood on Latin's broad shoulders and puffed out his chest happily.
Lalatin coughed lightly, and Sinbad immediately said, "Who is the most beautiful in the universe?" Latina you are the most beautiful. ”
Lalatin raised her head in satisfaction and clamped her arms to squeeze her large pecs a little fuller.
For the past two days, Sinbad has been acting as Gordon's eyes and ears, setting up a shop near the East Gate jewelry store and keeping an eye on the jewelry store. The boy showed great human energy, and stayed awake almost all day and night, keeping an eye on the flow of people coming in and out of the jewelry store. It was he who appeared late at night \u79b

b The old man who opened a jewelry store, Palalatin informed Gordon in time. It was he who found this excellent vantage point for Gordon.
Gordon took out the monocular and moved slowly, taking in the movements. The old man went out in the middle of the night, and Gordon felt that the other party might attack the freckles. And it was easy to find the location of Freckles, and his whereabouts were well known these days in order to lure out the horse thief.
Freckles wants to play alone, but Gordon prefers to make the most of all his powers. "Sinbad, do me a favor and be my observer." Gordon tossed the monocular to Sinbad, untied the leather box from his back, took out the bronze crossbow, tied a wire, and aimed it in the direction of the casino.
Five hundred meters away, and at night, Gordon's vision could not see completely. To make his bolts more accurate, he needs an observer.
"Okay, I promise to do it well!" Sinbad excitedly took the monocular. Latin, who stood on the roof, and Sinbad stood on Latin's shoulders, which was a lot taller than Gordon.
The hanging silk fluttered violently in the night wind, bending in a northwesterly direction, marking the approximate wind and direction of the night. Gordon pulled on the crossbow string, fine-tuned the angle, and began to wait patiently.
"Sir, there's a big crowd over there!" Sinbad whispered suddenly.
