It's hard to imagine that on this foggy morning, Moric would actually put breakfast in the yard to eat.

On the grass of the courtyard is a simple and delicate rattan table, next to which are two matching rattan chairs. Morric's breakfast was set on a rattan table, a total of three beautiful pastries that Vince had never seen, served on intricately patterned porcelain plates. In the middle of the three pastries is a steaming pot of black tea, and next to the teapot is a small saucer with two teacups upside down.

"Feel free. Moric reached out and made a "please" gesture, then snuggled up in a wicker chair and picked up a pipe made of green chestnut wood and smoked.

"Sir, I'll ......" Vince was about to tell him what had happened to him, but Moric stopped him.

"I come to the courtyard every morning to smoke a pot of cigarettes with this pipe," he said, waving the pipe in his hand, "and this pipe has the aroma of green chestnut wood, which I always use to remember when I was young." ”

"Please don't bother me at this time. He turned his head to look at the grass in the depths of the courtyard and began to smoke.

Wins ate the pastry on the table with interest. There are three major plates in total, and this old man can really eat it.

Vince ate about half of it, drank two cups of black tea, felt a little full, and secretly raised his eyes to observe Morich.

Even in the morning when he was alone, his hair was still neat and clinging to his skin. He wore a plain white shirt and a small black vest over it, and he was a gentleman, and he didn't seem to be worried about the cold of the morning.

One by one, the smoke rings came out of Moric's mouth, and he squinted slightly, looking at the gray courtyard in the early morning fog, as if he was indeed deeply immersed in memories.

The time for a pot of cigarettes passed quickly, and Moric sat up straight, rubbed his face, which had become wet in the mist, with his big hand like an eagle's claw, and said, "Tell me about you." ”

Vince told Moric about yesterday's fight, selling vignetting powder, and being broken into his home at night, and he skipped the monster in the sewers, which only made the other party wonder if he was crazy.

After hearing this, Moric chuckled: "No wonder you ran out in such a mess, but you can actually cheat money from them." ”

Vins smiled awkwardly and asked, "Sir, do you know how they followed me? I didn't notice any signs of being followed when I was in the sewers!"

This is the question that Vince is most concerned about, and it is directly related to whether the monster he sees when he enters the sewers will be exposed.

Moric thought for a moment and said, "You don't need to follow a person all the time, there are several small monsters in the leyline corridor that can attract each other. You haven't explored the leyline corridor, so it's normal not to know. ”

"Is that a direct attraction or is it following the scent like a hound?"

Moric glanced at Vins and seemed to wonder at Vins's persistence in the question: "Both. ”

Vince held his face in his left hand, his expression uncertain.

If you follow the smell, it's all over. The sewer crowd must be crazier than this gang of robbers!

Immediately after, he suddenly thought of a terrible possibility, and his face changed wildly!

Vince said in a trembling voice, "Is that monster still on mine now??"

"How do I know? Use your brain, think about who put the monster yesterday, and where he put it. Morric's voice was unhurried, and he didn't seem to be afraid of getting angry.

Morić's silence was so powerful that he calmed down, resting his chin in one hand and recalling the events of yesterday.

The first thing that can be determined is that it is absolutely impossible for him to be tracked in the sewers, which means that the monster was put on him before he entered the sewers.

The front desk, the young man who seems to be pursuing the front desk lady, and every passerby who passes by him can easily do this, and it is undoubtedly a needle in a haystack to find the culprit. But there was no need, he just needed to make sure where the monster was.

First of all, after he went to Joel's house, he left all his clothes at Joel's house, and the other party could only find Joel's house if he wanted to find him, how could he find him directly?

No, there must be something, what did he bring all the way home from Rissac...... What is it......

"My money bag!!"

A flash of inspiration flashed through Vins's mind, and he thought of the answer!!

Morric looked at the suddenly realized Vins, his face expressionless, but there seemed to be a hint of disgust in his eyes.

Vins's mood was much soothed, he forgot to take the money bag in a hurry when he went out, and the action that made him regret a little bit actually inadvertently saved his life.

Still not careful enough!

Vince was in a better mood, and finally mustered up the courage to say the purpose of his visit today: "Sir, I want to stay with you for a few days, as I just said......"

"No, I don't. Morich interrupted Vins as he played with the teacup on the table.

Wen looked at Morich blankly, not understanding what he meant.

Moric rubbed his brows with one hand, and explained helplessly: "People who resell vignette powder can find you, how can you get rid of the black guards? Maybe the black guards want to use you to fish for law enforcement, and those people are estimated to have been caught red-handed before they even leave your building." ”

“......”

It seems that there is a little bit of truth in what you say?!

"Go home, maybe there are two black guards waiting for you to take notes at your doorstep. Seeing that the matter was settled, Moric stood up and prepared to leave.

"Wait a minute!" Vance suddenly remembered something very important.

"What time is it, Mr. Morich?"

Moric took out a quaint pocket watch from his bosom, opened it, looked at it, and said, "Half past seven." ”

It takes about forty minutes to get home from here, and it takes more than an hour to walk from home to the City Lord's Mansion......

There was no choice, although it would be difficult to raise his head in front of Mr. Moric after doing so.

Vince clenched his fists, seemed to have made up his mind, lowered his head and said to Moric in a shy tone, "Mr. Morich, do you have ...... Well...... A formal outfit for me?"

The disgust that Moric had been hiding well in his eyes could no longer be concealed at the moment.

"Hmm...... I'm going to visit the City Lord's Mansion later, and I'm going home now, huh...... It's a little too late, I don't know if Mr. can do it, huh...... Do me another little favor. This visit, huh...... For me, hmm...... Very, very important!"

With great difficulty, Vince finished the passage with a twist, and looked up at Morich boldly with his sincere eyes. Morich's old face was long, and the expression seemed to say:

What a troublesome poor relative!!

Vince squeezed out a smile and tried to look as shameless as he could......

......

At 8:15, Vince stood at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion in a formal suit that was obviously not in line with the current trend.

The castle lord's mansion was moved from the old district to the new district in order to call on the people of the city to build a new district in the year when Vins was born. At that time, just in time for the second cooling of the magma layer, adventurers from all over the continent gathered in Cariton, and the construction of the new area made the entire Cariton's economy have a qualitative take-off.

Now, almost twenty years later, the adventurers who came there have become a handful of dust in the depths of the leyline corridor, but the new district is still the most developed and prosperous place in the city of Carryton. The wise decision of the castle lord is still talked about by people today.

"Stop! What are you doing?!"

The two guards guarding the gate of the City Lord's Mansion stared vigilantly at the strangely dressed Vins, as if they were facing a great enemy.

Wince politely replied, "I'm Wins Griffin, and I've come to Mr. Southke at the appointment." ”

After listening to Vins's words, the two looked at each other mysteriously and nodded secretly.

Excited, Vins didn't notice the small movements of the two guards, straightened his clothes, and strode towards the main entrance.

"Stop! Ahead is the City Lord's Mansion, and no idle people are allowed to enter!" shouted the guard on the left.

What the hell??Didn't Mr. Sothke tell the guards that I was back today??

Vins was confused, but he still smiled and said, "Two guard brothers, I did make an appointment to meet Mr. Sosk, who is temporarily staying in the City Lord's Mansion this morning, and no one informed you?"

The guard immediately replied, "No!"

"Then why don't you go in and help me report?" Vance rubbed his hands anxiously and immediately suggested.

The guard squinted at Vins and said in a loud voice, "We only accept guests with reservations, please leave quickly!"

What kind of development is this? Seeing that it is about to kick the door, it will capsize in such a place?!

Wen Si was anxious, and hurriedly said: "I have an appointment, maybe I just forgot to inform you, can you go in and verify it again?"

The guard looked ahead and shouted, "The guard is not allowed to leave his post while he is standing guard!"

"Your Excellency, please leave quickly!"

The two guards raised their voices louder than the other, as if they were afraid that others would not hear them.

There were people coming and going in front of the City Lord's Mansion, and many people noticed the loud voices of the two guards, and gradually surrounded them, pointing at Wens, who was stunned in front of the door.

"Hey, boy! I said you don't pretend to be crazy and stupid here in the clothes left by your ancestors! For the past two days, there has been a plague every day, and every two days there are always a few people who are forced to go crazy here. I said, how old are you and still playing with children? If you have this time, you can go to the West End to move two more bricks, and you can earn two lunches!"

Someone shouted in the crowd, causing everyone to burst into laughter.

"Go back, I won't let you in! no matter how beautiful the city lord's daughter is, it won't be your turn!"

"This man must have the plague, do you? I would say it's better to go to the tavern twice than here." It's a brain sickness!"

"Let's go, let's go, there's nothing to see, it's just a fool who wants to give himself a little presence here. It's probably a useless waste!"

"If you want me to say, you shouldn't let those untouchables in Xiacheng enter the new district and do some sensational things every day!"

Every word was like a steel needle, piercing deep into Vins's heart.
