Chapter 120: The Fortune Teller
July 24, 7 p.m., Eastern Downtown Puston, Diagonal Lane.
These are some of the most chaotic neighborhoods in Pston, and compared to Iris Street, where Donald now lives, the buildings are far less empty from each other, and the ground is undulating and the roads winding and twisting as you walk out of the outermost street.
Grocery stores, barber shops, and the like are set up in remote corners, with small fronts, dim kerosene lamps, and often only some older people are watching the shops, and occasionally some children are running back and forth in the door with coal tongs and small sticks in their hands.
The widest part of the street in the alley can only accommodate more than a horse-drawn carriage and two or three people walking side by side, and some empty places have some wooden boxes and old tables and chairs outside, and you have to be careful not to hook the corners of your clothes when passing by.
"The believers of the Xia Church actually live in such a place, and this kind of treatment is worth following those guys?"
Avoiding the garbage on the bottom, the surrounding environment made Donald a little helpless, and with the help of the light reflected through the windows of the house next to him, he reconfirmed the address that Oguf had given him.
Walking through the alleyway, I came to the door of a small restaurant and stopped.
About 25 years old, brown-haired, with two beards, looking at the people in the restaurant, Donald knew he had found his target, and at the same time he saw a few guards sitting at the same table as the fortune teller, there were not many of them.
If there are no people who leave temporarily, then there are 5, and Rastole is also prepared to ensure that he receives the message as soon as possible.
Donald stood outside, ready to wait for him to come out, and it happened that there was a cart on the side of the road that fried chestnuts passing by, and he immediately stepped forward to buy a bag, the taste was very light, it seems that there is no such thing as fried chestnuts with sugar in this era, and it is barely used as a snack to pass the time.
"I have to find a way to get rid of these people, it's really troublesome...... Boss, would you like to consider adding some sugar to it? ”
Donald was trying to help the chestnut proprietor improve his technique, and the soothsayer in the restaurant was also awkward.
"Gentlemen, I don't think you need to protect me so much, I've always lived alone, and no one will trouble me at all. ”
After looking for him from His Excellency Rastolle, the 5 people around him were inseparable from him, and at first they felt a little majestic, but later they found out that they even had to follow when they ate and slept, and their usual play time was all forbidden.
"This is a matter for His Excellency Rastol, and if you have any requests, you can ask the Lord for it, and we will listen to the Lord for you. ”
The other part of the Book of Darkness is such an important matter, and the subordinates sent by Rastolle are naturally capable enough and quite conscious.
"You ...... Okay, I'm done eating, you guys eat slowly, I'll go to the toilet. ”
How dare he go to Rastolle, and get up with some embarrassment.
"You, keep up. ”
Glancing at the sitting man, he glanced at his subordinate, who put down his knife and fork without saying a word, which made the soothsayer pause, and then gritted his teeth and continued to walk towards the inside of the restaurant.
When he reached the door, he opened the door and was about to enter, but the man behind him showed signs of stepping, and the soothsayer became impatient.
"It's okay to follow usually, I just ate, you have to watch a, you don't stink, I'm still shy, there's a pit here!"
Having people staring at the squatting pit, the soothsayer asked himself if he had this hobby, and the one who followed him obviously didn't either, but just took a step back and signaled that he was at the door.
The soothsayer went into the toilet alone, and it didn't take long for a foul smell to come out...... You can't expect a bathroom in a small restaurant to have an exhaust fan or something.
The man guarding the door had just eaten, and when he smelled it, he immediately took a few steps back.
But after waiting for a while, there was no sound of flushing inside, and the people outside were a little panicked, and they stepped forward and pushed a few times, but the door was not opened, and it was locked!
Cursing in a low voice, the man took two steps back and then slammed his waist forward, the door was also light, and when the bullet opened, it hit the wall behind it and made a loud noise, causing the boss in front to scold and come over to check the situation.
"Hey, you've got to lose money!"
If the toilet door is broken, it must not be able to make a living, otherwise the smell will rush out, and who else will come to his house for dinner.
"Get out of here!"
The man who was angry was even more domineering, raised his hand to push away the restaurant manager, and went directly to the lobby, where the remaining few people had already gone this way.
"Captain, I'm ......"
Seeing the captain's gloomy face, the person who was still playing majestic before couldn't be stiff now, and lowered his head and hesitated.
"If you can't find it, you can solve it yourself, go!"
Solve it yourself, what kind of solution is it, just look at the sweat on his forehead.
"Sir, tell me again, how to make sugar-fried chestnuts, I didn't understand before, hey, sir, don't go!"
The stall owner outside the restaurant looked at the figure who was walking away quickly, and always felt that he had missed something important.
"Divination, divination...... I don't fucking know how to divination, I just have a little thing in my hand, and I just pretend to be a good person, and even His Excellency Rastolle came to my door to ask for advice, and sent these people to protect me, obviously to spy on me, fuck, I wanted to mix up for a few more years, so I had to change places first. ”
The soothsayer rushed all the way home, and when he went upstairs, he rummaged through the cabinets, cursed repeatedly, and found a large suitcase, and put a few changes of clothes and a small box hidden under the bed, and when he took it, he could hear the sound of coins colliding inside.
At the beginning, he found the dark book for the Shia Church, and the reward was definitely not less, and then he claimed to be a soothsayer, although the senior management of the Shia Church usually did not look for him, but he still had good food and drink, which allowed him to save a lot of money.
"If he wants to run, he will definitely come back to pick up something!"
The shouts from downstairs made the soothsayer shudder, and he didn't bother to take anything else, so he closed his suitcase and ran out, but unfortunately he was still a step too late, and when he opened the door and went outside, the people of the church of Sia had already surrounded him.
"What are you running, as long as you complete the divination, will the church treat you badly?"
The place where the soothsayer lived was in the best part of the Angled Alley, surrounded by dense houses, but there was a clearing here, and the captain stood by a flower bed and said in a deep voice.
"I, I'm ......"
What else could he say, and when his eyes wandered unconsciously, he saw a vague figure in the alley on the other side of the clearing.
"You wait here, don't run around. ”
He stuffed a peeled chestnut into Finger's mouth, took out the fox mask from his bosom and put it on, and formed a magic seal with his hands, shining brightly.
Bigby strikes the palm!
