But at the same time that Freeman was completely honest, a slightly noisy noise suddenly broke through the wooden wall with poor sound insulation, and clearly reached the ears of Su Mu and others.

"You go out and inquire, but no one who does business in Skeva City has not accepted our protection. Besides, if you don't have us to protect your restaurant, there may be a bully who will harass you at any point. Isn't the protection fee of twenty silver coins a month still too high?"

The monthly protection fee of twenty silver coins is really not high within the boundaries of the federal capital, and it can even be said to be quite low.

Although most of the so-called hooligan bullies in the other party's threat at this moment are the black faces played by the other party themselves, if they are really not dismissed, it is really difficult for the restaurant to continue to operate.

However, although Su Mu can understand this truth, as Freeman, who is still studying in the ivory tower, he does not understand the dilemma of businessmen at all.

Seeing that before Su Mu could stop him, Freeman had already rushed out of the room, directly stopped in front of the crowd who came to collect protection money, and even said in a righteous voice:

"Don't you feel ashamed that there are still moths like you in the capital of the Federation?"

Freeman's sentence can be said to be very unsophisticated.

The existence of a complete social system will naturally give rise to a variety of industries, not to mention today's social system, even in the era in which Su Mu once lived, there will still be gray areas.

And Freeman's speech at this time obviously did not leave the other party with the least face at all.

So even if the other party has an immediate seizure, it is a matter of course.

Sure enough, after hearing the words, the other party became angry almost immediately, his face suddenly became gloomy, and his voice became full of threats:

"This guest, our affairs with the restaurant owner don't seem to have anything to do with you dining here, I advise you not to wade into this stall in troubled waters. ”

The leader who came to collect the protection fee was actually an official knight who had been promoted to the middle level.

Even in a place like Skaivo, official knights seem to be everywhere. But even so, there are not many knights who are willing to defile their identities and join the gray forces.

And the current leader is also the second leader of the forces in the old city.

Today, he made a special trip to this restaurant in person, undoubtedly to establish the system and establish authority. After all, in the entire old city today, it seems that this is the only restaurant that dares to default on the protection fee.

But even so, for those unrelated diners, the leader has no real intention of wanting to be rough.

After all, even the gray forces in the underground considered themselves to be members of the city of Skywo, and naturally they did not want any unnecessary conflicts in the city.

As long as everything goes according to their rules, and they can collect no more or no less protection money, everything is the best ending.

......

However, although he did not want to have a conflict with the first collector of protection money, Freeman, who had nothing to do with the matter, was even more excited than people thought.

In the face of the other party's admonition, Freeman not only did not let go of his body, but seemed to be a lone hero, and glanced at the restaurant owner behind him, and then firmly blocked in front of the other party.

After Su Mu in the box saw this scene, he looked at Su Tong beside him helplessly.

At this time, Su Tong's eyes were full of interest.

There is no doubt that Freeman's actions at this moment have been thoroughly illustrated...... The fact that he cares so much about the operation of this themed restaurant is not just because of his anger before. The real reason is that Freeman clearly has a soft spot for restaurateurs, which is why he cares so much about everything here.

"What now?"

Su Tong's eyes were full of play-like fun, but he quietly asked Su Mu's opinion.

Obviously, with Su Mu's current status and strength, it is only a matter of one sentence or even a glance to solve the matter in front of him.

So Su Tong is not worried about Freeman's recklessness at all, but is interested in watching Freeman go to stage this emotional drama in person.

Seeing this, Su Mu knocked on Su Tong's little brain a little helplessly, but he didn't expect that Su Tong, who was so smart and clever, would be interested in such a white romantic comedy.

However, while Su Mu felt helpless, it was the leader who was even more helpless.

As a person who is willing to join the gray forces with self-stigma, this person naturally only cares about the most practical interests, and will never make any unnecessary battles.

So today's coercion is actually just a performance to maintain the system.

The price of twenty silver coins is undoubtedly only equivalent to a well-made lantern, even if it is a small merchant hawker selling along the street, it is really not very harsh.

But who would have thought that such a performance that was actually understood by both parties would be stirred up by Freeman, an embarrassed young man in an ivory tower, and it became an embarrassing situation that he had to get angry.

......

"Are you really afraid to do it to you?"

Although the academy badge on Freeman's chest had been seen by the leader from the beginning, even the famous academy in the continent could not bully them like this, the low-level forces foraging in the shadows.

"Do you really dare to do anything in the federal capital?"

Although Freeman didn't have the confidence to fight in his heart, because of the presence of the woman behind him, he was now forcibly straightening his waist and still standing stubbornly without giving an inch.

Then there was an extremely ridiculous scene by the clear pond next to the restaurant.

The leader, who was obviously the leader of the underground forces, was now a little hesitant and didn't want to do it immediately, but looked at the stunned young man in front of him with some annoyance, and his heart was full of helplessness like a chicken and a duck.

As the owner of the restaurant, the woman was actually ready to spend money to eliminate the disaster, but now after being stopped by Freeman, she has no chance to resolve the crisis.

As for Freeman himself, who rushed out by himself, he immediately put himself in an extremely dangerous position.

Although Freeman is indeed a full-fledged mage at the middle level, as Freeman himself said, he is simply miserable in learning combat magic.

Not to mention, the leader, who was an official knight, was now less than two meters away from him, which was obviously an absolute disadvantage for the caster.

For a moment, everyone was silent with each other.

But as time passed, no one was able to get out of the stalemate early.

An extremely inexplicable confrontation with each other was presented in Su Mu's eyes in such a way that it was laughable and laughable, which made Su Mu a little helpless and unable to laugh or cry!

......

"Have no mercy on you, go ahead and show the leader the emblem that truly represents me. Presumably, people like them, who live in the shadows, will naturally be extremely alert to this. ”

After a moment of stalemate, Su Mu still couldn't sit back and watch the romantic comedy turn into a tragedy.

When Qin Wupian heard this, he also took out another emblem that even Freeman had never seen before, and then gently pushed the door and walked out.

As Qin Wupian pushed the door out, the two sides of Qingchi's stalemate naturally looked at Qin Wupian's position at the same time.

The leader of the protection fee was shocked when he saw this, he hadn't even been able to discover Qin Wupian's existence before, which undoubtedly showed that Qin Wupity was far stronger than himself.

Compared with the collector of the protection fee, Freeman was slightly stunned when he saw this, and only then did he react to his abruptness...... He actually left a few of his guests behind, and suddenly formed this stalemate outside the box.

However, while the two of them were thinking about each other, Qin Wuxian walked directly to the person headed by the comer, and gently displayed the extremely special emblem clearly in front of his eyes.

Then, very casually and naturally, he directly instructed the comers:

"My young master is dining in the box, so don't continue this matter. As for the face you gave to my young master today, it will naturally be of great benefit to you in the future. ”

The leader was stunned when he heard this, but he didn't expect Qin Wupi's words to be so arrogant and strong, and there was no room for bargaining at all.

However, the next moment, when the leader completely saw the emblem in Qin Wulian's hand, a trace of cold sweat that slipped from between his eyebrows directly caught this person's gaze.

At this moment, the visitor didn't even dare to look in the direction of the private room. It's just a little incredulous, and he is extremely careful to confirm to Qin Wulian:

"Which one, he's here now?"

Qin Wupian nodded reservedly when he heard this, and did not answer in words.

And once the leader determined this, he no longer had the slightest intention of staying, and even bowed directly to Qin Wupian, and then retreated and pleaded guilty:

"The boys have no eyes, I don't know that one is also here, and the actions just now are still looking at Your Excellency Haihan, and the boys will disappear. ”

After the leader said this, he had already withdrawn from the restaurant with his subordinates.

Then they turned around and left without looking back, and they were obviously making underground rules in the old city, but they had a vague feeling of panic and helplessness.

The thing they were flustered about was naturally that they actually met that person.

And what they are helpless about is that for the person they longed for in their hearts, the previous offense even made them feel uneasy, let alone stayed.

A simple emblem, coupled with Qin Wulian's words that weren't even a threat, were already able to make the leaders of the underground forces leave in a hurry.

Such a person, such a prestige, is obviously something that Freeman never expected.

In Freeman's cognition, Su Mu is just the son and son of a big federal family, and where can he have such amazing energy.

It was only at this moment that Freeman finally began to seriously think about the identity of the other party.

But Freeman would have been fine if he hadn't thought about it, but once all the information had been summed up in everything, a guess that had made Freeman suddenly uneasy could no longer be erased from his mind.

Of course, there are many young genius mages, and there are also many who have dabbled in alchemy, and those who can travel with the United States are even more unknown.

As for the frightening status, although there are not many, there is not only one.

However, although each single condition does not make people panic, when all the conditions are gathered in the same person.

The only answer seems to be on the horizon.

Somewhat incredulous and indescribable, Freeman stole a glance at the box he had just left, but he didn't even notice that his voice was trembling a little:

"So...... He's actually that guy, the man who shrouds in light?"
