Chapter 2 The Thousand Ears Society
In a dilapidated inn, Kira and McRae stand in front of a bad old man whose teeth are almost gone, scrutinized by his foul gaze.
The inn looked a little old, and although it looked very shabby, the contents were quite delicate, both in terms of display and hanging, and Kira even saw that there were some items in front of the old man that he had only seen in the underground auction in front of the old man who was blocked by this dilapidated counter.
This is one of Kira's achievements in the past few days, one of the gangster employment places in Yorkshire City, one of the members of the Thousand Ears Society, belonging to the older generation, quite reliable.
As the old man examined them, a crack opened in the inner room, and a childish baby face appeared in the slit, looking cautiously at the two guests outside.
The old man ignored the little Lori, and he said dryly, "Ah, yes, yes, I remember, it won't be long before the grand event, no wonder the old man's business has been much better than before." "Probably because there are too few teeth, the old man's voice is a little windy, giving people a sense of yin.
"But there are some rules for the manpower that my customers need here, which is simply ......" The old man pursed his lips, as if his mouth was very uncomfortable after talking for a long time, and after taking a sip of tea from his cup, he continued unhurriedly: "Don't waste. ”
Kira and Jesse already knew these four words, not that the old man heard this every time, but that they clearly saw the four words behind the old man's tea: Don't waste.
Since I don't know what the old man has in mind, what if the person on the other side doesn't know how to read? So Kira, although they saw it, they still didn't show it, staring at his old face without squinting, waiting for his next request.
Looking at the two unresponsive faces in front of him, Old Hank really wanted to laugh, he sensed the traces of thought in the two teenagers, but it seemed that the other party was only there, so what was the use of finding more people who found him? If you don't meet the standards, you won't be hired, and your efforts will be in vain.
Hank, who didn't want to talk nonsense, had already raised his withered right hand, ready to wave them away.
"So what's next? Sorry, I thought I was blocking me in such a big word because I was afraid that I would be blind. ”
Kira noticed the old man's movements for the first time, and she had an answer in her heart, so she interjected to reveal the message that we know how to 'condense'.
Oh? Hank's hand stopped, and it seemed that the business was about to be completed, and he could buy new clothes for his granddaughter.
He took out a menu-like piece of paper from the counter and placed it in front of Kira, "This is the name of the family that recently registered with me to recruit helpers, including the main role they hired you, choose one, and I'll tell you the rest later." ”
Gangsters in this world will declare to the outside world in the form of a family, maybe it is because the family makes the relationship between the members of the gang closer? Kira didn't know, but that didn't stop him from picking them.
Since everyone's experience is different, the boss of the gangster family often has different hobbies, orientations, and needs. Some people need to hire bodyguards, some need to hire thugs, some need to hire explorers, but in the golden age of this world's attention, their own safety is clearly above all else, and Kira clearly sees that more than 95% of the targets on the list are protection missions.
Aside from the cookie-cutter protection regulations, it was the information behind these family names that made him a little interested, similar to the format of a name with the note 'Limb Collector' at the end of the name, and each of the gang bosses registered here was divided, and I don't know if they wanted to do it themselves or the old man in front of him did it without permission, but it was convenient for Kira.
He didn't see the so-called Kluwer family on this, it seems that in this recruitment place where the passing line is to learn to 'condense', the Kluwer family is a small gang that doesn't even have the qualifications to enter here, of course, it may also be a big gang with enough manpower, but who cares?
"Collectors of human organs, there should be a lot of resentment on those organs and limbs, in fact, the faith energy transformed by those resentments is not small." Kira thought to herself: "Antique lovers, if you want to talk about antiques, less than ten out of a hundred pieces are likely to meet my standards, and antique lovers sound like collectors of human organs...... There is so much kindness. ”
"How's it going, have you chosen? You can choose from all of these families, and of course they can choose not to hire you, but I don't have much time left, old man, and it's not enough to spend time with my little granddaughter. The pace of her speech was still slow, but Kira could easily pick up the hint of urgency.
"That's it, it's just a job anyway." Kira casually tapped on the menu, not caring about it.
And the location of his finger is a well-known guy in the city, Carol, a collector of human organs.
Old Hank just glanced at it and handed the list to McRae, but the latter handed it back: "Wherever the boss goes, the younger brother has to follow, how can you have the right to choose, right?" He scratched his head and looked at Kira with a distressed expression.
"I didn't say that, your legs are still on you, after all."
"Okay, okay, I was wrong, I volunteered." McCree saw the sparkle in Kira's eyes, and finally gave up his plan to be poor, so as not to suffer.
Old Hank didn't have the time to watch the two stinky teenagers perform a drama here, so he directly took out two cards and handed them to them, "This is the certificate for the two of you, in addition." He pulled out another business card: "This is the address and phone number of your employer Carol, I will notify him in ten minutes, and you can contact him within today." ”
Kira took the card and nodded with some satisfaction.
Well, yes, yes, it's a beautiful business card, much better than the handmade one given by a guy called 'Yi Ermi' or 'One Meter Two' before, which sets off the fact that this gang should be quite rich.
As for the Ilmi in his mouth, he was standing next to a corpse at the moment, talking on the phone with an expressionless face......
