Chapter 403 Strange People
"Up!"
Seeing that this man's movements were relaxed, the crowd around him immediately rushed up!
Well, this man who was still handsome just now, and who looked completely well-groomed, is now surrounded by these people with pitchforks, and you punch me and beat me violently.
"Let you run rampant! Let you pretend! Wasn't that amazing? You're still wearing a top hat! Feign! Dress me up again! ”
Under the punches and kicks, the top hat's hat rolled aside. But now that he's surrounded by so many people, Arrow can't see exactly what this guy looks like.
"Hey! Look! There are no bullets in this musket of his! Hahaha! It's an empty gun! And this gun sucks. Wow! It turned out to be a model? Hahaha! It's a model! ”
A man took advantage of the chaos to take out the musket in his top hat just now, raised it high, and shouted at everyone. Such a "fact" made the crowd around them even more energetic, laughing and cursing and kicking at the same time, seemingly not paying attention to this top hat at all.
However, it seems that the people around him are still a little measured, after all, there is no real fight between the two sides, and there are no bullets in the other party's musket, so they did not use the pitchfork in their hands to stab the man's body.
After a series of punches and kicks, the besieging crowd finally got a little tired. One of the leading men dispersed the crowd, then surrounded the woman who had just been protected by a top hat, grabbed her by the collar, and shouted, "Where's the money!" Give me the money back! Otherwise, this guy's fate will be your fate! ”
The woman was obviously frightened, she turned her head to look at the man lying on the ground, covered in wounds, and even bleeding from the corners of his mouth, and then looked at the men around her, and couldn't help but grit her teeth, trembling, and took out a money bag from her arms.
As soon as the leading man snatched the money bag, he slapped the woman with his backhand, and scolded and said, "Stealing Lao Tzu's money? Don't weigh how many pounds you have! Also, next time you want to find a protective (harmonious) umbrella, it's better to find a powerful one, don't look for such a coward to protect you! Hum! ”
After a curse, the crowd around the woman finally dispersed and walked away under the leadership of the leading man.
And the woman who stole the money slowly stood up and patted the dust off her body after looking around to make sure that there was no danger.
She looked away, glared at the top hat that was still not up, and after a moment, spat at him with a little annoyance—
"Damn, I didn't have a few pounds and a few taels to be a hero, I believe that you are really blind!"
While scolding, she left. In the blink of an eye, I blended into the crowd.
Looking around, the lively crowd saw that both parties were almost gone, and after looking at it for a while, the guy lying on the ground had no intention of getting up, so it gradually dispersed, what should he do.
As the crowd dispersed, Arrow also got off the lampstand. He looked around, slightly closer to the top hat lying on the ground, to take a closer look.
Gradually, the top hat finally moved a little.
It seemed as if he had finally come to his senses, and he struggled to get up slowly from the ground, stretched out his hand, and kept groping around.
It took a moment for the man to finally touch his top hat, which had been completely flattened, pick it up, pat the dust on it, prop it up with his hands, and put it on his head.
Then he began to look around again.
"The model of the musket was taken by those men. Do you need to go and chase it back? ”
As he kept searching, Arrow stepped forward and said with a smile on his face.
The top hat man was slightly stunned as he looked back at Arrow.
While he could see the short man in front of him, Arrow also really saw what kind of face the top hat looked on.
It was a slightly haggard face, and the ends of the cheeks were as if they had been shaved off by a knife, and even gave people a skinny feeling.
However, it must be admitted that this is a very handsome face. This kind of emaciated ...... like malnutrition How so? On the contrary, it brings some morbid beauty to this face.
His skin was so fair that it made Arrow think he might not have been in the sun for too long? This almost completely bloodless skin resembles the skin of a dead man. But in contrast to the white skin, there are eyes that are as red as blood.
And in addition to these, what really surprised Arrow was the man's ears.
Beneath the slightly longer sideburns were two elf-like ears.
It's just that like his skin, the skin on his ears is pale as paper, without the slightest hint of blood.
"Are you ......? No, you're not human? ”
Arrow muttered softly.
The top hat held up the face that looked a little blue and swollen, nodded slightly, and said, "Thank you for your concern, sir." It's ugly for you......"
For the person in front of him, Arrow was just surprised. But he quickly returned to normal, with a smile on his face, and said, "No, no, no, I don't see something ugly, I see a very good quality." You've done a good job, dear sir. ”
The top hat was slightly stunned, and his slightly swollen eyes looked at Arrow, as if trying to figure out what he meant.
Arrow smiled, took a handkerchief from his pocket, stepped forward to wipe the top hat a little dust off his face, and continued: "If those people had caught the female thief directly, then that girl's beating would have been indispensable. However, she did steal, and even if she was a woman, it was not easy to stand on her side from a moral point of view. ”
"At times like these, you stepped up. In this exaggerated way, you endure the beatings of those who lost them. Although it may seem that they beat you because of your arrogance and ignorance, in fact, you are trying to get those people to vent their anger at having their money stolen by allowing you to get yourself beaten. ”
"That way, after beating you, their anger is almost gone. Naturally, she didn't bother to deal with that female thief, and a slap was a punishment. ”
"In this way, you have protected a woman who is morally deserving of being beaten, and at the same time has made the losers angry and will not be violent against her again. Shouldn't such behavior be called excellent? ”
Perhaps it was Arrow's hand touching the wound on the top hat's face, and the man frowned and shrank slightly.
Arrow smiled, stopped what he was doing, and shoved the handkerchief directly into the man's palm. At the same time, he stretched out his hand and said, "Ero Garcia, it's a pleasure to meet you." Who are you? ”
Hearing Arrow's name of self-preservation, the man in the top hat froze slightly, and then stared at Arrow. After a while, he laughed, picked up his handkerchief and wiped the dust on his forehead and said, "It really makes the president of the Mermaid Song laugh, where did I think of such a good practice?" I really overloaded it just now...... Ah, please forgive me for introducing myself now. My name is Cheese, and I belong to the Fangs Guild of Night. ”
Arrow smiled slightly, stretched out his finger and pointed at the suit on Cheese's body, and said, "The fangs on the back of your dress are really quite conspicuous. But I suggest that the next time you do something like this, it's a good idea to take off something with the guild logo on it. Otherwise...... It's easy to hack your guild. ”
Cheese was slightly stunned, then pulled the suit on his body, and said with a smile: "Oops! I was in a hurry, so I really didn't think about it that much. President Arrow, I didn't expect to meet you today. I thought you would come back in two days. ”
Just then a carriage came, and Arrow and Cheese took two steps towards the side of the road. He smiled and said, "Being able to meet you in advance is also something that I have always wanted to do. But Mr. Cheese, what about your companions? Aren't they with you? Or will they have to come in two days? ”
Cheese waved his hand and said with a smile: "I'm alone and bored, my companions...... They're running errands right now. President Arrow, let's not just stand on the road! It's rare to meet, why don't we find a place to sit down and have a good chat? ”
The attitude of the light of heaven, Arrow has seen it now. So now he can only start from the side of the fangs under the night. Since there are people from this guild who are willing to be introduced, then he will naturally not let go of this opportunity.
There isn't much in Snow Creek City, but there are definitely no fewer restaurants.
The two of them left the main road a little and turned into an alley, and sat down in a restaurant that didn't seem too crowded, but not too remote.
"What do you want to eat?"
The service staff served the menu, and Arrow glanced at it, and couldn't help frowning slightly. Then he handed the menu to the cheese in front of him, and said with a smile—
"I'm not familiar with this city, you can order it, I'll just eat it."
Cheese took the menu and flipped through a few pages, and also frowned slightly and said, "You guys...... Is it just baked? Silver cod is grilled, chicken is grilled, and even kelp and vegetables are all grilled? ”
The waiter smiled and nodded: "Yes, this is the specialty of our store, please be sure to try our store's signature specialty cod, it tastes very good!" ”
Cheese scanned up and down with the menu, and after a while, he sneaked a glance at Arrow opposite, and saw that this president really looked like he had never been here at all, so he coughed lightly and said, "Then let's have a sign of yours." Then, give me a glass of cod blood. ”
