Chapter 104: Debt Repayment
Focos grabbed Xiao, seemingly lightly, but in fact, Xiao could feel that the hand with this young man was like an eagle's claw, quite powerful.
He pinned it like a prey pinned by the talons of an eagle, a rabbit, a goat, or something.
He's a hidden pickpocket because it's all too familiar.
"Well, it's worth more than five silver leaves."
Xiao grinded his teeth in embarrassment, and finally nodded, just now Focos didn't plan to let him go.
"Give me an earring, just to prevent you from playing tricks on me."
Watching Focos's talons continue to not let go, Shaw knew he still had a back hand.
"I'll take you there that night."
Seeing that Shaw gave an earring, Focos pinched the earring to confirm that it was real gold.
Xiao secretly sighed in his heart, his only vacation was wasted.
"She'll kill me, real gold for silver leaves."
When Shaw left, he complained that Theresa would really be so angry that she would go crazy on the spot.
After all, Xiao knew that she was also the one who helped people inquire, and she was wronged enough to lose her earrings inexplicably.
Back at the bar, Teresa looked at Shaw Lanzerim with a gossipy look.
"You're not really going to fold my earrings in, are you?"
Teresa's expression had already guessed the ending.
"It's not a fold, a pair of gold earrings can be exchanged for at least five pieces...... Silver leaves. ”
When Xiao himself said this, even he laughed unjustly.
"Oh my God, I'll get it back from somewhere else."
Teresa shook her head, she wouldn't let herself suffer.
"There is a saying that wool comes out of sheep."
Shaw glanced at Lanzerim and spoke earnestly.
"I don't think this sentence is like you said."
Lanzerim noticed that both men were looking at her.
"I didn't say that......"
Lanzerim muttered, she had only said that the Inglesbians had made easier money, why did they all look at her?
"So you gave away my earrings half-away, what the hell did you ask?"
At the beginning, Teresa didn't trust Shaw, she was suspicious.
But Lanzerim told Shaw after she left, Shaw, you can rest assured that you can leave the matter to him.
"New discovery, will you listen to black talk? He's a groom, I'm sure. I guess from the strength with which he pinched me just now, he is also a pickpocket, and he is still the experienced kind. ”
Shaw motioned for them to look at his wrist, and Shaw's wrist turned red, as if it had been tied with wire.
"Hey, wait a minute, is the groom I know?"
When she heard the groom, Teresa's first reaction was to drive.
"Which? Driving a car and waving a horsewhip? ”
Shaw asked rhetorically, and he made a whiplash motion, and Shaw looked at Theresa and nodded.
"Yes, but not all, the groom actually helps others carry things safely, women or valuables."
Xiao sighed, probably a regional difference.
"You're touching the vine, wow."
Theresa sighed, and she understood why Shaw suddenly said that he was sure when he got the gold earrings.
It turns out that it means to go deep into the enemy.
"Sort of, do you want to go there in person or I'll go there for you?"
"You'll go for me, please."
Theresa made a gesture of gratitude, and this in-depth approach was not Teresa at all.
"For the sake of you being a friend of Lanzerim, give me a silver leaf for my hard work, while I haven't changed my mind."
Shaw held out his hand.
Shaw replaced his earrings with five silver leaves, and then he was about to leave one with confidence, and Theresa felt a little ridiculous in her heart.
But she had no choice.
Master.
"Deal."
Theresa shook Shaw's hand heavily, and she would make Roman spit out what she was supposed to get back.
"I like cheerful people."
Shaw earned a silver leaf in this way, and Lanzerim was right.
Xiao, you can really leave things to him with confidence.
Shaw will ask you to count the money for him.
"Thank you for the like."
Theresa smiled kindly and shook hands with Shaw, at least in a few days she would be able to explain things to Roman.
It's relieving to think about, and she can't wait to blackmail Roman.
The wool comes out of the sheep.
Looking at Teresa's increasingly flawless smile, Lanzerim swallowed his saliva.
Looks like someone is going to suffer.
……
"Is she really a Delmainite? I always thought she was rich. ”
Teresa is gone, she doesn't like to come home late, she didn't lie.
Shaw asks Lanzerim not long after Theresa leaves, and Teresa takes off her earrings as if she doesn't care.
"Actually, her table mate is very rich, and I guess she asked for it."
Lanzerim wanted to bring Teresa that kind of smile and anger, she and Roman were really a living treasure, Lanzerim thought.
"The Inglese?"
When it comes to money, one must think of the Ingles, the poor Delmain, who now toils in the taverns.
Shaw glanced at his vest.
"The Ingallists, who are particularly prominent."
Lanzerim knew Roman, as the saying goes, the more afraid you are, the better you know, she corrected.
Roman was not an ordinary Ingallist, and his family was extremely powerful and wealthy.
"How could someone of great stature notice what he has lost? Unbelievable. ”
Anything in Focos' hands could have been stolen, and after Shaw was sure that the other party was a pickpocket, this inference was straightforward.
He believed that anything the pickpockets had in their hands could have been stolen by them.
So it would be strange if Teresa had come to inquire about pickpockets on behalf of someone and the person who wanted to know the situation happened to be a prominent member of the Ingleists.
Lanzerim heard Shaw sigh with emotion, and she also felt incredible.
"Have you been short of money lately, and you volunteered to go deep into the enemy?"
Shaw is not a man who likes to pick up work, he stares at the clock every day to get off work, and even uses pineapples to induce drunkards to drink more in order to make them fall.
He's lazy.
So, it's unusual for Shaw to suddenly be willing to help someone do it for him.
"Oh, that's a thing, I also like money, okay?"
Shaw had no particular interest, but his presence here to work at least showed that he needed money to make ends meet.
"You're suddenly too fond of money."
Xiao is a kind of person, as long as he wants to make extra money, there is almost no money he can't earn.
But Shaw was not interested in anything.
There is nothing to ask for outside of three meals a day.
Lanzerim felt that Shaw's sudden enthusiasm was quite novel.
"Nothing."
Xiao smiled and didn't go into the question.
A few days ago, Danmu approached him privately and offered him a condition to help Shambhala keep an eye on him.
The quid pro quo is that he will reveal the test questions of a subject before the start of the class admission assessment with the prefix 0.
It seems that at this stage, Shambhala has set up a narrow clearance for their group of students in non-0 classes.
As long as they meet a certain standard, they can advance to the next stage to work with students in the prefix 0 class.
It's a point game, and as long as Shaw completes a certain number of Shambhala Secret Operations, he'll be able to get all the subject questions before the exam starts.
In this way, he will be a little less anxious about competition than those who read dead books.
It's much easier to memorize the answer than to think about it.
This pair of Xiao, who had no intention of competing for the 0-word class, opened another way.
Of course, Xiao gladly accepted it, his academic performance was decent in Sing Tao arithmetic, and he expected that he would not have a chance to compete in the nobility circle of the 0 digit.
He originally planned to enjoy the peaceful life of Sing Tao, but he didn't expect that the time would come, and when Mu let him use his expertise in exchange for his own future.
Why not?
Shaw pulled out Teresa's earrings and looked at them, and Shambhala wanted him to infiltrate the gray circle.
Of course, Shambhala doesn't want to wipe out all pickpockets, and Sing Tao is a balanced ecosystem with a bustling appearance during the day and dirty deals at night.
Shambhala wants to know...... Who keeps pickpockets.
……
Roman always thinks that Teresa is strange today, not because she ignores her, but because she seems to be missing something.
That day, Roman went back and looked at his waist in the mirror, and there was a bruise, and her feet were really good.
It's not yet a day off, and news of Shaw hasn't come yet, and Theresa is standing still for the time being.
So there was a rare silence at the same table, one was watching what was missing from the other, and the other was standing still.
Today was a class that Roman was going to escape, but he wanted to leave, but his body was still bored and stayed in this class.
Ever since Cangna's courses on the development of human potential, Roman has tried to convince himself with the resemblance of Teresa to his dead mother.
This reason is not valid, and Roman himself finds it very inexplicable, because he knows that the image of his mother was indirectly fabricated by himself based on the memories of his brother and sister.
The characters fabricated by thinking are actually what they are most willing to see in their hearts.
It is likely that his mother's true appearance is the same as Teresa's sudden kicking quality, maybe she is also a person with a good face and an evil heart?
Only the elder brother and sister who have actually come into contact with the mother really know.
All of the above is his imagination.
He didn't know his mother, but he knew Teresa better than his mother.
Teresa was playing with her fingers, watching her fingers move according to a pattern—she was deserting.
Most people with nimble fingers are not stupid, and Teresa plays with her fingers flexibly, which can explain why she is his tablemate.
Roman lifted a page of the book, why his head kept thinking about things endlessly, and it was outrageous that there was no focus.
Just when Roman was a little depressed, God gave him a hint.
Teresa's earrings......
Roman's eyes shifted, Teresa had always worn earrings, his mother had earrings because of her small earlobes, so she wore earrings to make up for it, and Teresa's ear flesh was actually not small.
Instead, her earrings just encircled the flesh of her ears, and her earlobes were full.
Teresa's ears are empty today, except for a small piercing left by wearing earrings for a long time, her ears are very monotonous today.
"Where's your earrings?"
In the past, Teresa would respond to him, but now Teresa is holding her ground, in other words, holding her anger.
"Theresa."
Theresa's fingers paused, then continued to exercise regularly.
"I don't know."
Teresa felt amazing at the thought that Shaw had exchanged her earrings for five silver leaves and news, and the most powerful thing was not the five silver leaves, but Shaw who had rightfully taken one.
Teresa said coldly, continuing to play with her fingers intently.
Roman was about to say something, but Teresa spoke faster than him.
"Don't talk to me, I don't want to talk."
Just when her mouth was tired and she didn't want to move, Theresa secretly took a deep breath.
One thing is the same thing, although her earrings were exchanged for gold and silver, Teresa felt very disadvantaged...... But in fact, what made her really uncomfortable was indeed - Roman was very nervous and pinched his nose that day.
This wasn't Roman's first time breaking distance, and Teresa was also impressed by the fact that Roman suddenly pinched her chin during a class and forced her to look away.
Truth be told, if there is a third time in this intimate distance, Teresa will become wary and she will alienate Roman, because she is very uncomfortable with this suddenly somewhat ambiguous relationship.
Whether Roman intentionally or not.
She minded anyway.
