The roast goose dismantled by Aldrich himself, after being broken into pieces, each Night Watchman only got about six pieces, perhaps it was a miraculous knife technique, and everyone felt that the taste was different from before, and after carefully tasting it, they stared at other people's plates with unsatisfied satisfaction.

Knight Triss pushed his share to Lynn, who was sitting beside him, and the poor open-air canteen helper was at first reluctant to accept it, but was infected by the smile that Aldrich always maintained, and wiped away his tears and accepted it calmly.

She had no knife or fork, so she had to eat in her hands, and sat opposite Aldrich Triss, and the full-time knight named Perry Prescott couldn't help but sneer under his voice, and Lynn, who was keenly perceptive, suddenly blushed a lot, and was about to burrow under the table with her head bowed.

Knight Triss snorted coldly, and without a trace, he reached out and pressed lightly on the girl's waist that was about to break, Lynn's body straightened suddenly, raised her head and chested her abdomen, and was stunned and at a loss, but saw Aldridge beside her holding a roast gooseneck with not much shredded meat in both hands and struggling.

He laughed self-deprecatingly: "A country knight like me, who has not much education, is not used to using knives and forks, and it is more enjoyable to eat with his hands." ”

"Knight, I ......" Lynn didn't know that this was Aldridge helping her hide her gaffe, and she was moved to tears.

"I have sworn under the Code of Knights to protect the old and the weak, women and children, and it would be my greatest dereliction of duty if I made you cry. Lynn, you're not trying to make me break my oath, are you?"

Out of the corner of the girl's eye, she saw the full-time knight on the opposite side sitting on pins and needles, with an embarrassed and even extremely embarrassed look on her face, and immediately understood, and shook her head vigorously.

Not far away, Raven Bol took in the full view of what had just happened, smiling and narrowing his eyes into a line, "It seems that this Aldrich Tris is not a fool whose brain has been ruined by the rigid education of knights, and what kind of true face he hides under the disguise of traditional knights, it is really exciting." ’

Aldrich Tris...... Tris ...... Sword and shield armbands, well! Could it be Orton Tris, one of the first twelve knights to follow Viscount Eastwood in the Pioneer Era, with the unique title of Eye of Vigilance? Could it be that Aldrich is a direct descendant of the House of Triss? I remember my ancestor serving as Viscount Eastwood's intelligence officer, and working together for many years in the spy system led by Eye of Vigilance. In this way, the two of us are close friends, and belonging to the Knight of Tris does not affect my status in the family. ’

Thinking of this, Tim Pol couldn't help but laugh, which immediately caught the attention of the Brown Pelican Pilquain brothers, who shook his head lightly without elaborating on it.

After a hearty dinner and a short rest, the Night Watchmen were ready to do their duty, greeting each other with good-natured jokes, looking for their mounts, and entering the streets of the city in twos and threes following the established patrol route.

Aldrich kindly asked Captain West about arranging a place for the maiden, and Rufer West, considering that the Nightwatchman's garrison was occupied in the walled rooms, asked Lynne to take a tent and set up a temporary lodging place in a clean and remote corner of the station.

Aunt Rosie, the cook, didn't want to clean up the messy open-air canteen by herself, and it was rare to have a free helper, so how could she not be exhausted, so she just stared at Captain West and kept Lynn busy for a moment.

In desperation, Rufer West and the Knight of Triss could only work together to help the girl build a complete tent, complete with straw mats and sheets to keep out the cold on the ground, but unfortunately the years are relatively old, and I don't know which warehouse box to dig out of the object, it smells a little moldy, but it is better than nothing.

The boar Sain had been impatient for a long time, but he couldn't complain because he saw that the two of them were busy and didn't come over to help. It's not that he doesn't want to, but he thinks it's unseemly to set up a tent for a canteen helper with his deep qualifications, so he sits and blows the night breeze and mocks Captain Rufu West and Aldrich Triss Knight.

"Alright, a thick straw mat and two cashmere sheets, and a safe place for the little girl named Lynn to sleep safely, and you may set off in peace, my Knight of Tris. Captain West joked with a smile that Aldridge didn't know how to respond.

"Let's go, this is my first time doing my duty, the last time I was disturbed by a veteran thief, I haven't experienced the taste of a night patrol. ”

The two looked at each other and smiled, and walked side by side in front, and the boar Sein did not know where to pull out an old colt, although the body was a little thin, but it was more than enough to bear the burden of a knight wearing only leather armor.

Facing Captain West's inquiring gaze, Sean grinned: "The ones I bought at the horse market are all horse dealers with licenses, I know them well, and they won't be stolen goods at a cheap price." I used to be a military horse, but after I retired from the army, I did hard work in the mill, and if I hadn't bought it, it wouldn't have been long before I would have died of exhaustion. ”

The dark horse Hayek suddenly snorted, spewed out a white gas like smoke, and vigorously dug the earth with his hooves, Aldrich immediately turned over and dismounted, walked to the wild boar Sain, and then looked at the old horse with dull eyes, reached out and stroked the withered yellow mane that was gradually falling, and muttered to himself in a strange tone.

"What are you ......" Sain was a little confused, and when he looked at Captain West, he saw him wave his hand, signaling the 'boar' not to interrupt the actions of Knight Tris.

'Hmph!' You are kind enough to let Aldrich Tris dictate me, why should you use my mount to sell favors to him. Sain was a little indignant, but let him turn around and leave, but he didn't dare to lose the face of Captain West on the spot, so he could only barely endure it.

After a few moments, Knight Tris nodded, "Theon is right, it is indeed a retired military horse, but just now it told me that if there is a chance, it will continue to gallop as before." By the way, Sain, please be kind to it, dragging the abrasive for many years will seriously damage its health, and don't raise the whip high and fall on it hard at every turn. ”

"Of course I know that, I don't need you to remind me. Feeling that his tone was a little excessive, the wild boar put away his fangs, "It cost me half a month's salary, how could I put my important property into the water so easily." Rest assured, I'll take it well, just like my family. ”

I remembered this phrase as a promise you made. Aldrich withdrew his right hand, and the glazed old horse turned his head to look at him, his huge eyes a little damp.

'Damn, you're not done!' was full of insults and slanders in his heart, but Sain's face maintained a professional smile, "I always do what I say, so don't worry." ”

Eastwood at night, perhaps because of autumn, when the cold night breeze blows, makes many people prefer to stay in the warmth and comfort of their homes rather than blow the wind on the streets.

As the road became less crowded with pedestrians, the Night Watchmen had more and more room to retreat and turn, and they met twice at the White Dove Tavern in the middle of Amber Boulevard, always casually stepping into the night, resting for a while, and then continuing to patrol the road until late at night.

The gray sky was filled with the haze of burning coal, and there were no stars in the sky, only a little of the moon's bright light sprinkled through the cracks, and in the blink of an eye it was obscured again. On the Rosin Boulevard, which spaciously allowed ten carriages to walk side by side, Rufer West, Aldrich Triss, and Sein rode on horseback.

They whispered to each other, mostly Captain West teaching him the keys to being a successful Night Watchman, and Sain the boar sometimes couldn't help but say a few words about himself.

The Knight of Tris wrote it down like a sponge, and there were some doubts that were inconvenient to ask now, so he kept them until he had the opportunity to talk about them.

"Those street bastards are a bit of a trick, unless they are caught on the spot, there are thieves and owners who are willing to stand up and testify, otherwise they escape, it is best not to chase them. Last year, a young man who had not been in the company for a long time rushed to chase a teenager who acted as a bridge crosser, and turned back and stabbed one foot in the center of the cemetery because he was desperate. Don't underestimate this, suddenly, few people can block it, even if you are wearing half-body armor, you will be pierced. ”

Aldridge nodded, "I remember that the last time I went to capture that veteran thief, Captain West shouted not to chase him, and it turned out that this was the reason. Thank you very much for your good intentions, but I can predict the next move of the target by his muscular movements, and this unruly 'return to the rifle' trick has not worked for me at least. ”

Rufu West was a little happy and a little worried: "I know you are very interested, but there are accidents, maybe what awaits you is not a sharp knife, but a group of thieves who are ready to trap you to get into, how do you deal with it?"

"First of all, I'm extremely sensitive to danger and don't put myself in danger. Secondly, thieves have no chance of winning against a knight, and I am a little different from ordinary knights, I am not afraid of siege. Aldrich pointed to his throat, "The smaller the place, the better, the more people, the better, my lion's roar will settle the battle in an instant." ”

"Hey, your hole cards are too much, and you can even practice this rare knightly skill?" Captain West looked at the young man in front of him who was talking and laughing freely, and his heart was filled with a little frustration.

Knowing that diligence is difficult to make up for the lack of qualifications, after being successfully promoted to a full-time knight, he did not spend a lot of time practicing knight skills, but put his mind on favors and taking the way, so that he could serve as the captain of the night patrol knight at the age of less than thirty years old, and have the qualifications to be in charge of the party, which is too beneficial to the promotion of knight chief in the future.

"That's right! Speaking of that veteran thief, Musk, who wields the power of shadow, as a person who walks in the dark realm, acts similar to pickpockets and thieves, and it is a little unwise to hurt people in the street in public, I think it is a little strange, there are too many suspicions. Knight Triss couldn't help but ask.

Rufer West: "You'd better keep silent about this matter, there are so many aspects involved, and the relationships behind it are intricate, like a mess of dead knots, and it's hard to figure out." ”

A thought suddenly appeared in Knight Tris's heart: "West, I want to go to the execution ground to see, I have a premonition that I can't say whether it is good or bad, obviously something is about to happen." ”

Knowing that Aldrich had been in the Whispering Forest for a long time, and that the revival of the wild had given him a special sense, Rufer West did not refuse this time, and immediately turned his horse's head and went to the execution ground.
