Chapter 48: The Crazy Ticket (17)
"Downstairs appeased?" Mu Yan asked.
Just now, the two chased and fled, but now they are half dead and one is injured, causing a lot of riots.
"The gold coins can shut everyone up, they are much calmer than you think, and the waiters bring cleaning tools when they go upstairs." Ricky stretched out his hand to Mu Yan: "140 gold coins, no credit." ”
So Mu Yan set his eyes on Tom, who was sitting on the ground stupidly.
But this guy has been on this face since he was rescued.
In a few short dealings, Mu Yan knew that this thing was not very bright, and he had always been the main thing called Jerry, but now that he was gone, it was obvious that the wool could not come out of the sheep.
"Mr. Ricky, you are the most powerful assassin in all of Heru, is the commission only 140 gold coins? If you are given these gold coins, is it not an insult to you? In my opinion, it is better not to. ”
Mu Yan couldn't refute Ricky's crooked reasoning, and he could only give the young wizard a roll of the eyes.
"Ricky? Ratchet, the rebel prince of the Tallinns? ”
Tom, who had not spoken all this time, suddenly spoke, and his words were amazing, and Mu Yan couldn't help but look at Ricky twice.
is worthy of being an intelligence worker, and he even knows his identity, but this guy is really good at chatting...... How he survived in Hosdi.
Ricky just smiled, not overreacting.
"It's been a long time since anyone called me that, and I miss it."
Tom shuddered, and then he realized how foolish his actions were, and hurriedly stood up and saluted respectfully.
"I'm sorry, Lord Ricky, I should have thanked you for saving my life."
"Don't thank me." Ricky pointed at Mu Yan. "He asked me to arrest people and save you by the way...... Hey, what are you doing? ”
Ricky saw Mu Yan's finger on the yellow-skinned goblin's temple, glowing blue-green.
"You're too hard, I'll have to treat him." Mu Yan explained.
"Do you wizards all look so bad at healing?" Ricky's perception is impaired, and he can't perceive what kind of energy it is, but judging from the color, it is easy to make people have bad associations.
"The water elemental has just deteriorated, and it is like this in the vicinity of Hosdi, affected by the fog to the south." Mu Yan glared at Tom meaningfully as he explained.
The latter, apparently reading his warning, hurriedly chimed in, "That's right, Lord Ricky. ”
Seeing this, Ricky didn't ask any more questions, but looked at the goblin with interest. He remembered that Mu Yan had made a joke about "goblins and Tallinn people have the same ancestor".
Looking at it this way, the two are really somewhat similar.
Mu Yan's "treatment" lasted for about five minutes, during which his brows were furrowed, the green tendons on his hands flared up, and he almost couldn't resist turning the thought stealing into a dissociation technique several times.
This is the first time he has checked other people's memories, but instead of breaking into the door and looting like "soul searching", it is a mind stealing, and pickpockets generally burrow into the master's sleeping memory hall, looking for useful information in a variety of memories, so that it will not cause harm to the recipient, and the pressure will come to the caster instead.
Especially this goblin has a lot of dry memories.
Memories of the bloody and brutal aside, the memories of the event, though equally vague and mostly suspicious, complemented his knowledge from another perspective, combining what he saw to form a complete story, allowing him to now know the whole picture like God.
It really responds to the old saying of the ancients: "No book is made without coincidence".
An old man who was once extremely powerful and turned people into ashes at every turn, but now he is so weak that he can only stay in the kitchen and knead the dough, plus some chasing after the wind and a few coincidences, can make the scheming gray hat Moraby worry about this.
It seems that there is really a pair of invisible big hands, trying to weave the fate of these people, including him, into a beautiful story, but unfortunately the craftsmanship is not perfect, and in the end it is tied into a dead knot.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at Ricky, and thanks to this person who fought to the death with Gondor, he inexplicably became the biggest beneficiary in the cracks.
"The 'treatment' is over?" Ricky asked.
"Shouldn't we ask this guy what the hell is the Grey Hat doing?"
"Oh." Mu Yan winked at Tom.
"I'll help you get Jerry out, see what I look like."
Hearing this sentence from the bottom of his heart, Tom's body was shocked, and he nodded heavily, and Mu Yan's eyelids jumped when he saw it.
This guy ...... Wouldn't he look at him and say, "I hear you"?
……
Ten minutes later.
"So they sent so many thieves and killers to die in the alley?" Ricky asked.
"That's right."
"And who is the bounty hunter looking for?"
"Do you need to ask? Of course, it's Uno, the director of the Shining Gold Coin colludes with the Grey Hats to covet the 'heavy treasure' you mentioned. ”
"What about you? Why did you get involved in this? ”
"That's another story." Mu Yan told how he and Tom met twice by chance, and left a magic mark just in case.
"Maybe the guy who wanted my life also commissioned a bounty hunter by the way." He spread his hands and said, "That's why that yellow-skinned dwarf left some scent marks on me." ”
This was discovered by Tom, who said that there was a faint smell on Mu Yan's body, which he could only smell if he was close, but Jerry's nose must have been able to detect it from afar.
Ricky got to the point all of a sudden. "So that group of people just now came up to look for you, right, when I left the alley, I obviously cleared all the clues."
“…… So to speak. ”
"So to sum it up, I saved your life, right?"
"What words! We're in cooperation! The friendship between the two of us, can it be called 'rescue'? Mu Yan retorted: "Besides, if it weren't for me, how could there be two more people in this room, how could you sort out all this?" ”
"Strong words."
"This is meticulous logical thinking! There must be a certain number of drinks and pecks! Speaking of this, Mu Yan suddenly changed the topic and said, "Mr. Ricky, now that all the mysteries have been solved, don't you have any other ideas?" ”
Ricky hesitated, he also understood that after this incident, it was basically impossible to auction tickets on the black market, so he also came up with the idea of taking Uno out of Hosti and going to the port of Geoor.
But who knew that the port of Guiore would be safe? He was also assassinated several times after buying the ticket, which did not pose a threat to him, but with Uno's ability, what is the difference between putting money on him and throwing it on the street?
So he was teased by Mu Yan like this, and he was also a little moved.
He is His Royal Highness the Prince who defected from the Tallinn Dynasty, he was hunted down and killed inexplicably, and he was poisoned, can there be a little fire in his stomach? Now that he understands that the other party is a rat trap and does not dare to step into this hotel, if he still doesn't go back, is it still him?
"Can you afford to pay my commission?" He asked Mu Yan.
"Here, 140 gold." Mu Yan was very decisive.
Ricky couldn't help but laugh as he pointed to the yellow-skinned goblin lying on the ground.
"And what about him?"
Mu Yan didn't answer, and directly popped out a cluster of small flames to turn the other party into ashes.
Just like the Glazer did back then.
"This kind of scum should not exist in this wonderful world."
He explained with a smile.
……
In the next room, Uno was lying bored in bed.
"456 Tallinns, 457 Tarbes......"
"Uno, it's dangerous outside, I locked the door, don't come out."
Ricky's voice came suddenly, and Uno was startled.
"Okay uncle, you have to pay attention to safety too!"
This voice was like a stone sinking into the sea, and there was no response.
"Damn, where did you count?"
Uno scratched his head.
"Forget it, one Tallinn, two Tallinn ......"
……
This was Mika's first visit to the high-end hospitality room where the gold coins were shining, and even when Mika House was at its best, he was not qualified to be invited here. But it seems that Kabole is a regular here, and he doesn't even need to be informed to get in.
Morabi was still a little longer there, so he and Sweete looked curiously at the marble walls around them.
Carbole stood aside with his arms crossed.
"In years, I haven't seen anyone pull gold out of Moraby's pocket......"
"Don't talk nonsense, mortgage your winery if you can't get the money." Sweete shouted.
"Don't be in such a hurry, Selvie." Carbole smiled. "I'll do my best, so please don't interject, lest it cause a misunderstanding, and with Morabi's suspicious personality, as long as he sees that I am being coerced, he will definitely take advantage of the opportunity."
Sweet snorted and ignored him.
Not long after, Morabi arrived in a hurry.
"What does that mean, Mr. Carbole?" He looked at Mika and Sweete and asked, he naturally understood who these two were, but he didn't understand why they were here.
"Fat Bi, do you remember those gold coins I saved a day ago?"
"'Save'?" Moraby's brows furrowed slightly, and he couldn't help but narrow his eyes when he saw Mika and Sweete standing next to Carbole on the left and right. On the fat face, there was a completely left slit in the eyes that were not very obvious.
"That's right, 'save'." Kabolai's expression was as usual: "I 'deposited' 500,000 gold coins with you. Remember? 500,000 gold coins, 200,000 at a time, 300,000 at a time. ”
Morabi was tempted to ask if the other man had a brain in the water, but Carbole repeated it, and he held back the conversation.
"And then?"
"I said that the 300,000 gold coins were my 'life money'...... Used to buy my freedom. ”
Buying life money?
Morabi seemed to understand something and motioned for him to continue.
“…… And then you say you're going to keep them in a 'safe' place where only you know where. ”
"That's right."
"And then you summoned me just now and said, 'The money has been settled,' right?" Kabole looked at Moraby and said, "This is not good news for you and me, after all, you like 'gold coins' so much, and I like 'freedom' so much." ”
Morabi bowed slightly.
"So my mind changed, and I wanted this money to have a reasonable place to go, and not rot to me."
"Mr. Carboley, it's very difficult for me to change your decision like this......"
Sweet and Mikaden tensed up.
"Make an exception, fat ratio." Carbole said, "As long as the two of us don't say it, even the 'gray hats' won't know about it, do you say?" ”
He asked, staring into Moraby's eyes.
Morabi didn't answer immediately, as if in deep thought.
"Maybe I can say to Spike, the old dog—"
"Deal."
Morabi interrupted him, and Kabolet breathed a sigh of relief.
"Then please come with me, the gold coin is very hidden, and the route may be a little detouring, after all, this is a shining gold coin." The goblin squirmed its bloated body and left first.
Although Mika felt that the dialogue between the two was a little strange, she didn't think much about it when she saw that Morabi took the initiative to lead the way, and followed with Sweet.
"Do you really want to do this, Captain, it will make me guilty." Carbole asked in a low voice, as if pleading.
"You were wrong in the beginning, and now you're just salvaging."
"Maybe." Kabole looked up at Moraby's back.
"For me, it's really a save."
……
The four of them went all the way down, and the sides gradually changed from golden walls to polished smooth stones.
"Below the shining gold coin is a sea of gold, where the entire gold of Hosdee is hidden, what you see below the floor of the hall is only a part of its surface, we are still some way from the entrance, and we have to pass through two barriers."
Morabi explained, reassuring Mika and Sweet, but the former stepped forward to put his hand on Kabole's shoulder to prevent an accident.
Then, as Moraby had said, the road became more and more damp and gloomy through the two barriers, and if it weren't for the light at the end, Mika would have wondered if they were going the wrong way.
"It's almost only the goblins here, or some quite important customers, obviously Carbole is not counted yet, so his gold coins can only be kept by me, and bringing you here this time is indeed an exception, so there will be some 'price' to pay." The goblin rubbed his fingers, and his little eyes shone with shrewdness.
Mika popped out a packet of gold coins, and Moraby caught it quickly, and immediately smiled.
"Mr. Mika is such a smart man."
Sweete couldn't help but sneer.
At the end of the road, a small door opened in a pitch-black wall, and inside was a sea of gold coins that rippled like a tide. Through this small square door, you can see the mesmerizing colors.
"Of course, there are high fees to maintain, and there are also some 'costs' to be paid."
Morabi said with a smile: "As the owner of the gold coin, this price can only be paid by Mr. Kabole, and ask Mr. Mika to let him take a step." ”
Mika didn't doubt him, and let go of his hand to let Carbole take a step forward.
Standing in front of the small door, with his back to the two men, Carbole threw a wry smile at Morabi before bouncing a gold coin into the door.
As if to match his movements, Morabi snapped his fingers, and the darkness was dispelled by the light at once, and all the dim crystals inlaid on the walls lit up, and two rows of gloomy cells, one on the left and one on the right, appeared in front of the four of them.
"Kabole, you-"
With a "bang", Mika's rebuke was interrupted by an elemental explosion, and Morabi detonated a fire elemental in the middle of the four, and the impact force forced Mika to step forward and protect Celestia.
Then two cold, sharp objects rose from under his feet with a strong wind, and he didn't have time to throw Sweete into the distance.
Seeing that the rising icicle was about to pierce him, Sweet, who jumped up, let out a coquettish sigh, grabbed her brother's arm with her backhand, slashed her palm into the air, and a cloud of sound exploded, not only dispersing the elements around the two, but also carrying Mika off the ground with the force of recoil.
Almost at the same time, Kabole swung his fist at Mika, who was in the air.
The brother and sister kicked each other with their feet in the air, separated and landed steadily, just to dodge the blow.
"That's right, Captain Mika, after so many years, it's still such a tacit understanding."
Carbole teased, he looked the same as he had just judged.
"It's almost time to catch up with me and Fatbi."
"Heh, if you hadn't threatened with 'secrets', how could I have compromised?"
Morabi was clearly still a little resentful.
"Man, I'm also bleeding heavily, this is a full 300,000 gold coins, counting the ones I gave you before, this is my life savings."
"After all, it's 'life money'."
The two looked at each other and laughed uncontrollably.
