Chapter 152: The Underground and the Transaction
At the entrance of a brothel, two burly orc slaves stand on either side of the gate, acting as doormen. Upstairs, there was a table of revealing women sitting by the window, looking out the window boredly.
Mona, who was caught, was inside the brothel......
Looking at the brothel not far away, Green couldn't help but check the system map again.
That's right! This is it.
But...... Why is it here?
Green doesn't think the brothel would send someone to kidnap Mona. It can't be provided to rabbit lovers for kidnapping, right?
Green looked around. This is a relatively remote side area of the outer wall in the city, and the towering outer walls block the surrounding lighting, making the area look a little dark and damp.
As Green looked around, a woman sitting by the window in one of the rooms upstairs of the brothel seemed to notice Green, and the woman smiled and waved at Green, and threw a teasing look at Green.
Green smiled awkwardly and hurriedly left.
"Strange. It's not reasonable...... How did it end up here? ”
Green didn't rush in, but wandered around and walked into a tavern not far from the brothel.
There weren't many people in the tavern. Green asked for a drink, sat down at the bar, and looked down in thought.
"Guest, you seem to be bothered, is there something bothering you?" The bartender asked, wiping his glass.
"Nothing, just thinking...... Well, by the way, I'd like to ask you, are there any pharmacists in the city who are good at R&D? ”
"Good at R&D? Huh~ That's a really strange question. If you want to talk about research and development, it is really Miss Merlily, a genius alchemist in the west of the city, we have an explosive drink she once developed in the tavern, do you want to have some? ”
"Is that Miss Merly an alchemist or a chef, and why are all the dishes she has researched?" Hearing the bartender's recommendation, Green couldn't help but complain.
"Oh? Looks like the guests have already met Miss Merrily. The bartender didn't seem surprised, "Genius always has a special fetish, but his ability is unquestionable." ”
"In addition to Merlily and the second lady of the Izeta family, are there any other pharmacists who are good at research and development?"
"Although there are many alchemists in the city, I have not heard of anyone who has invented anything special except for Miss Merlily."
"That's right......" Green was a little disappointed, but then Green couldn't help frowning, looking at a guest sitting in the corner drinking alone, his eyes narrowing slightly.
As soon as Green entered, he glanced at the tavern and didn't notice anyone there. If it weren't for Chikage reminding him, he wouldn't even be able to discover the existence of that person.
"What's the matter with that man?" Green pointed to the corner of the tavern and asked the bartender.
The bartender raised his eyebrows and looked at Green: "Guest, what are you asking for?" ”
"It's just curious. After all, transcendent thieves aren't something you can encounter anywhere. ”
……
While Green was talking to the bartender, a young man in a cloak walked in through the back door of the tavern and went straight into a room.
There was a table in the room, where a red-haired female thief in tight leather armor was sitting on a chair, holding a dagger, trimming her nails, and two men around a table, playing cards.
The cloaked boy glanced at the two men playing cards, walked up to the woman, and said indifferently, "Where's the thing?" ”
The red-haired woman glanced at the cloaked boy: "What about the rest of the money?" ”
The cloaked boy took out a money bag and shook it for a moment. The crisp sound sounds very pleasant.
"Where's the stuff?"
"Mouse, go get something."
"Okay, big sister." A man threw his cards on the table, stood up, and walked into a nearby room.
There is a cellar in the room.
The man opened the cellar and jumped.
This is a cellar that is used to hide from monsters. The cellar is deep and the entrance door panel is very, very thick.
A few minutes later, the man climbed out of the cellar with a cage covered with a black cloth, returned to the room, and placed the cage on the table.
The red-haired woman pulls back the black cloth from the cage, revealing what is inside the cage. It was a white creature that looked like a rabbit - Mona!
Seeing the contents of the cage, the cloaked boy threw the money bag on the table: "Happy cooperation. ”
The red-haired woman picked up the money bag, weighed it twice, opened the money bag and took a look: "Happy cooperation." ”
The cloaked boy covered the black cloth, carried the cage, and left the tavern.
"Huh?" In the tavern, Green, who was talking to the bartender, was suddenly stunned and frowned slightly.
Stuff...... Moved? Moved from the brothel next door to the tavern?
Green looked at the door of the tavern. Green didn't see anyone coming in. Is it a secret passage? Something underground?
Green quickly judged.
"Huh~" Green squinted his eyes and scanned the situation in the tavern, stood up, and dropped a silver coin on the bar, "No need to look for it." ”
Green turned and left the tavern.
Putting away the silver coins on the bar, the bartender glanced up in the direction Greene had left. Turning to the thief in the corner, he nodded slightly, got up and walked into the room at the back of the tavern.
In the room, the red-haired female thief was lazily counting the silver coins in her hand.
Bartender: "Big sister, there is a cargo that has been tracked." ”
The red-haired female thief raised an eyebrow: "Do you know what they're looking for?" ”
"They're looking for alchemists who are good at potions. I don't know if it has anything to do with the goods. ”
"An alchemist who specializes in potion development?" The red-haired female thief frowned slightly, "Have you already left?" ”
"Yes. He seemed to sense something, and then left. ”
"Already gone?" The red-haired female thief thought of a guest who had just left, "I see. Who is the stalker? ”
"A young master who looks very rich." The bartender paused, "There may be a stealth guard." ”
"How's the strength?"
"The little young master doesn't seem to have good combat effectiveness, but the stealth guard is estimated to be not weak. I couldn't see the guard at all. ”
"Looks like a pretty good assassin...... Forget it, leave them alone. The thing has already been sold, and what happens next should have nothing to do with us. If he comes next time, just pay attention. ”
"Okay, big sister."
……
Green didn't know that the tavern he stumbled upon was one of the contact points of an underground guild, that the brothel next door was actually just a cover, that this tavern was the real lair, and that the kidnapped Mona had just been handed over from the underground guild to the "employer".
But even if you don't know anything, as long as you can locate the location of the target, none of this is a problem. Green can follow the positioning displayed on the system map and directly kill the location of the target!
Walking along with his target, Green came to a place he knew very well.
"Melily's alchemy workshop?" Green looked up at the workshop in front of him, and then at the location shown on the map.
At this point, Mona had stopped moving, and the target location was the alchemy workshop in front of her.
"So coincidentally?"
