Chapter 46: Shocking news
After Caroline's explanation, the law enforcement team warned Li Feng a few words and left.
From beginning to end, Li Feng was on the lookout for every pause in the speech of the captain of the law enforcement team, nodded seriously, and pretended to understand.
After the law enforcement team left, the bakery owner gave Caroline a complicated look and turned to leave the hut.
Everyone looked at each other, and a helpless smile appeared on their faces.
After lunch, Caroline was escorted to pick up his sister from a small room of less than 20 square meters.
Karina, who is five years younger than Caroline and just turned 13 this year, is the same age as Agthius, and her legs are paralyzed and she can't get out of bed.
Unlike Caroline, this little girl has silky blonde hair, and is born with a beautiful skin, and her skin is very delicate, but it looks a little pale due to the lack of light.
The wooden bed on the second floor was newly made by the carpenter, but the sheets, bedding and other things had not been purchased yet, so Xiao Hei asked Li Feng to put Karina, who had come over on his back, on the long sofa near the side wall.
The softness of the sofa made Xiao Nizi's whole body sink in, which was a pleasure she had never experienced on the wooden bed.
Xiao Nizi's bright eyes kept looking around, full of curiosity.
Blackie was about to ask Caroline to buy some bedding when a low sizzling sound suddenly sounded in the corner.
Caroline hurriedly picked up her broom and rushed towards the rat hole in the corner.
"Don't!"
Blackie and Karina shouted in unison.
After shouting, Caroline and Karina turned their heads to look at Blackie.
Karina is lonely, and the only thing that can accompany her is the rat at home, and she has long been, so she treats the rat as her pet, so she will stop herself.
But what about Lord Black? Caroline looked at Xiao Hei seriously, and suddenly realized that Lord Black was also a mouse! If he wanted to hit his companion, Lord Black wouldn't expel him, right?
Thinking of this, Caroline hurriedly put down the broom, and came to Xiao Hei like a child who had done something wrong.
And Karina's heart was overjoyed when she found a talking mouse, and there was nothing more interesting than that.
"I'm sorry, I didn't know," Caroline whispered.
"It's okay, I understand, it's just that I want you to understand that they are my employees who joined before you, and I want you to be able to control the disgust in your heart and not expel or scold them. "Little underworld.
Caroline hurriedly shook her head: "I promise not in the future." ”
This is a job with food and shelter, 30 silver coins a month, and a long rest time, and she is reluctant to leave just because of a mouse.
"Can you write?" said the little underworld.
Caroline shook her head: "I don't write much. ”
"I will. Karina leaned against the back of the sofa and raised her hand excitedly: "I used to teach myself a lot of words when I was bored at home. ”
"Okay, that's you. ”
Asked Li Feng to close the door, Xiao Hei asked Agthius to take out the banknote and hand it to Karina: "Now I say a word, you remember a sentence, and I will give you a reward of copper coins for each sentence, how about it?"
Xiao Hei did not hesitate to make Karina work better, and did not hesitate to make a lot of money.
Although a copper coin is not much, it is also a considerable income.
"Okay!" Karina never thought that she could also make money, she could help her sister relieve stress, not to mention how happy she was.
Looking at the smile on Karina's face, Caroline lost her mind.
Since her parents left, Caroline has not had time to spend with her sister.
Karina could only stay in that small, dirty little room, quietly waiting for her life to pass.
It was the first time she had seen Karina smile so happily, and she covered her mouth and kept her head away from her sister from seeing the tears that were about to well-up in her eyes.
Li Feng took out a tissue from his pocket and handed it to Caroline, who was crying silently.
Caroline took the tissue, looked at the non-speaking man, and whispered a thank you.
Xiao Hei sizzled a few times, and five yellow mice crawled out of the mouse hole in the corner of the wall in turn, and Jamie, whom Xiao Hei had seen before, was also inside.
"Black boss, I've called you, we all know the big and small things in Kalan City. Jamie looked at the bag of black bread that Agthius had bought on the way to pick up Karina on the table and swallowed, "As long as Lord Black pays enough, we will find out the color of the king's underwear for you." ”
Where there are people, there are rats, and there is no exaggeration in Jamie's words.
"The king's panties don't have to. Little Black asked Agthius to take the bag of brown bread to his side: "I only need information that is useful or important to me, a piece of brown bread that is useful and useful, let's start now!"
A mouse raised its paws: "I'll come first, a big caravan has come to Xicheng, the symbol of the caravan is an elk, they seem to be preparing for an auction." ”
It was the Elk Chamber of Commerce, Xiao Hei nodded: "I already know the news, the caravan came with me, but you were the first to tell the news, so I reward you with a black loaf." ”
Blackie asked Agthius to hand the mouse a piece of black bread, and the mouse with the bread in both hands immediately took two bites of the bread, and then made two snorts to let his companion carry the bread back to the cave.
Seeing the harvest of their companions, the other rats immediately couldn't sit still.
"The selection of new students in the Royal Academy of Otto has just passed, this time a total of 876 new students have been enrolled, and the annual assessment of old students is about to begin, and a large number of students will be expelled from the academy because of the failure of the assessment, and a 10-year-old magician of Otto has suddenly awakened, with a strong magical talent, and has been found by the honorary dean of the academy, an elf, Milne to guide alone. ”
"There was a sudden increase in the number of missing people on this side of the southern district, but it did not attract attention because most of them were thieves, thieves, and prostitutes. ”
"The Eastern District is preparing for an annual party meeting, when a large number of troubadours will come to the Eastern District to translate recent events into carefully prepared stories. ”
"The old emperor on this side of the Imperial City sent a diplomat to Stormwind City, as if to expel all the papal personnel in the territory of the Fury Wind Kingdom. ”
Xiao Hei conveyed the news of the little mouse to Karina one by one, but the news became more and more intense, and even Karina couldn't hold the quill in her hand.
Caroline, who was standing on the side, stopped crying, and looked at Xiao Hei blankly, shocked and a little scared at the same time, when she got these news, she was like a flat boat carrying a huge treasure in the sea, and the ship was destroyed and killed if she didn't pay attention to it.
Although she knew about this level of relationship, Caroline didn't have the idea of getting off the boat, not to mention the salary here, just the smile on Karina's face, for that smile, no matter what the final result was, it was all worth it.
"Anything else?" asked Blackie to a few mice.
Mickey shoved a small piece of bread into his mouth and pointed to the empty paper bag in Agthius's hand, "Yes, yes, but you don't have any more bread in your hand, Lord Black." ”
"Black bread, what I have, you just have to tell the news, useful news, a message for a black loaf. Xiao Hei said confidently.
Several mice looked at each other, Jamie chose to trust Xiao Hei, and continued to speak: "There was a homicide in the East District the day before yesterday, the deceased Alik, a flower farmer, was robbed and killed by the unemployed vagrant Beret in the South District on his way home from work, and now the murder weapon is under Beret's bed. ”
"The Countess Sinclair and the Marquis of Wilson were lovers, and the two often had trysts at the inn. ”
"The Marquis of Simpson is secretly raising troops and horses because of the fact that the old emperor expelled the Holy See, and now he is secretly raising troops and horses, and he doesn't know what to do. ”
"Because of the entry of the new chamber of commerce, several chambers of commerce in the western district began to jointly reduce prices, intending to expel the new chamber of commerce. ”
.....
In total, Xiao Hei asked Karina to count a total of 241 pieces of information, and Xiao Hei owed a total of 236 black breads in a "huge" debt.
At this time, it was dark, and Xiao Hei raised his hand to interrupt the mice's speech: "Okay, let's stop here today! Continue tomorrow, the amount of black bread sent to you is a little too much, I will immediately send someone out to buy it, and I will be able to deliver a part of it when the time comes."
My new store has just opened, and there is no extra place for you to live, so you can use the rat hole as the entrance for the time being, and dig a basement, but be careful not to dig up the house for me, and pay attention to the bath, otherwise it will stink, no one will come to buy your news, and everyone will be finished together. ”
Digging the basement is not a hassle, after all, rat children are born to make holes.
But Xiao Hei said that the bath, this is embarrassing, first of all, they don't like to take a bath, and secondly, they want to take a bath to have clean water!
The water in the sewers is not very clean.
After thinking about it, the rats unanimously decided that this basement would not be dug up.
