There was silence in the hall.

Unlike the tense silence of the first time, this time it was as if I had been shocked by something, and it was impossible to react. Even if there were mercenaries who were farther away from the bar—yes, Momo thought she was a bar, not some hellish service desk, and she preferred to simply sell something to eat and drink—and was infected by the atmosphere, not daring to speak loudly, but asking in a low voice what was going on, and then turning silent.

Momo clutched her chest and took a deep breath as she looked at the badge that shocked her again.

Yes, you are not wrong to watch it a few more times. It was a silvery-white rose.

It's not white, it's not gray, it's that silvery-white.

The representative color of "the adult——!

Tao Tao looked at the man in shock, and was speechless for a while. The other shrugged his shoulders and finally spoke the first words since he stepped into this place.

"So, do you want to verify?"

Tao Tao came back to her senses, the corners of her mouth were still twitching a little uneasily, but she shook her head, and when she spoke, her voice was even a little dry and hoarse.

"No...... Of course not. She cleared her throat and continued, "No one has the guts to assume that adult's badge...... No one. ”

As if finding it intolerable to look at him any longer, she turned her head and yelled into a corner.

"Roth!"

A dark-haired man walked over, his hair was a little too long, no, not that feminine long hair, but his bangs, so long that one wondered how he could see the way clearly.

"Get the line on, you know."

The man muttered something, but went to do his job anyway. Momo turned her head, took another deep breath, and began to talk to Yura.

"I suppose you're the one in charge of you, right?" Without waiting for Yura to answer, Momo continued, "Oh, to be honest, I didn't expect to see this badge one day...... Any one is possible, only the adult's...... Oooh...... Today's events are worth talking about for the rest of my life, even if the parties to this incident are family members. ”

Jura looked at her hesitantly, unsure if she should ask more. It didn't matter if she was laughed at herself, but she felt very guilty if she hurt her companions. And Tao Tao obviously noticed the girl's desire to speak and stopped.

"All right, this young lady. You can get the badge of the Lord, which proves that at least one of you is a VIP. Momo waved her hand, still refusing to look at the true bearer of the badge, "As a companion, you should enjoy the same treatment for the time being, and the rest depends on the attitude of the adult...... So at least for now, you can ask questions without fear of being ridiculed. No one dared to laugh at the honored guests of the adults. ”

Yura looked at the curly-haired man for a moment, then turned to look at Momo.

"The sir...... Is it the one I imagined to be? ”

Momo clutched her chest again uncontrollably.

"Yes, if you're really the head of the family, I think you'll still have that level of discernment." Momo muttered, "You have this badge, you don't need that ...... before"

Momo glanced at the man eating the candy and frowned, thinking that this person did not have anything worthy of "that adult" to treat differently except for the blonde hair on his head...... No, that's not something she should comment on.

She quickly turned her gaze back to Yura and continued, "In fact, all the Rose Badges are their personal badges, except for the black badge you gave me in the first place. ”

Momo emphasized the "private badge" and glanced at the blonde man again, but she didn't notice any changes in the other party's face, and couldn't help but be a little frustrated.

"Private Badge...... I can't arbitrarily say that the private badge is more noble than the external reception badge of their entire mercenary group, but at least ...... The exception for the adult. Of course, the lord is the leader, and a small reception badge is not qualified to ask her to come out. Momo writhed her fingers uneasily, "Are you sure that badge is real?" Although I said that no one would dare to lie...... But you don't even know that they hate their family...... Not to mention ......"

The curly-haired man raised an eyebrow.

"You're so afraid of that leader? I wonder if he achieved this position by violence, although you mercenaries are all about strength, aren't you? He smirked, "I'm worried if we see him if it's really going to be of any use......

Momo slapped the table and glared at him very angrily.

"So that's why we hate clans! So arrogant and arrogant, he talks nonsense without knowing anything......" She glanced at Jura and pursed her lips, "It seems that the reason your family has not been destroyed is only because this young lady is playing a moderating role. ”

The curly-haired man bared his teeth, a little tempted to continue arguing, but Momo interrupted him without hesitation.

"Listen," Momomo raised her head proudly, "that lord is the greatest, I just don't want that lord to waste her precious time just for a small family with a fake badge." ”

"She gave me that badge with her own hands, unless...... According to your words, the person who gave me the badge had the audacity to claim to be the head of the Fili mercenary group, otherwise you might be questioning her personally. ”

The blonde man said this flatly, and Momo winced at the imaginary image of the latter in his words.

"Of course I won't question that adult, but of course I can question you ...... lying," Momo snorted with little confidence, "Also, since you have such a good relationship with that adult, how can you allow your companion to make such accusations...... He didn't even know the gender of the adult. ”

At this point Roth walked out and returned to his corner, and Momo threw down the four men and walked in, while the curly-haired man stared at the blonde man with wide eyes.

"You didn't say it was 'her' and not 'him'!"

The blonde man chuckled disdainfully.

"Shao and I have said before, you just didn't listen to Shao yourself."

The curly-haired man's face darkened at what he said, and even the words he uttered had a kind of "hiss": "Do you want to say that she is with you when she is not working, gossiping about useless things?" ”

"At least not like you." The blonde man's tone was a little disdainful, "Noble as you, I guess I don't have time to listen to her own troubles." ”

"Oh, stop." Once again, Yura held back a battle that could break out, and perhaps as Momo said, she was indeed a palliative in the family, "There's no point in arguing here. Seriously, Huck, your provocation is incredible...... That's the only chance we can have to get Shao back, and if we lose it, it's you who will regret it. ”

Huck, the curly-haired man, gritted his teeth unwillingly, exuding a gloomy aura all over his body.

"Can she really save Shao? I doubt that you have deified her, why do you all say that she seems to be omnipotent...... Other options were simply abandoned. ”

"Huck, we've said it many times at the time, it's not that we've given up on other options, it's obvious that we've all been to the best places for medical care, but 'our' medical care can't do it." Jura whispered, "So we can only ...... Come and seek 'their' miracles...... And even if they don't want to give us a 'miracle', then with their level of connections, they will always be able to give us some pointers...... Tell us where we can save Shao. Whatever the price you are willing to pay, this is the oath you swore before you left, Huck. ”

Huck didn't say anything, just turned his back. Jura had no doubt that he was desperately looking for something to vent his emotions at the moment. Huck wasn't resisting "miracles," she thought, he was just ...... I feel very annoyed that I can't save Shao and can only turn to others for help.

"I can't help but say that your face is really big enough." Momo returned to the bar at some point, pouting subtly dissatisfied, "That adult said he would come over later, so you can find a place to wait." ”

For unknown reasons, Yura sensed that Momo had become a little hostile to them since she knew they had that silver-white badge. In order not to provoke anyone here, she dragged Huck and Gail into the corner, and the rest of them naturally did not stir up any more trouble, but followed them unhurriedly.

They chose an inconspicuous corner to sit down, but it was only relatively inconspicuous. The people of the family sat in the mercenary hall so openly and brightly, no matter what, it was impossible not to be conspicuous. The mercenaries around them looked at each other with a hostile gaze, and even if the four of them were now protected by that person's badge, it wouldn't make them feel nervous. Jura silently prayed in her heart that the One would come soon.

Or I hope that as Shao said, their engineer will be more important to that person than ordinary people.

Thinking of this, Yura secretly apologized in her heart. Perhaps because of the atmosphere here, she now felt that even the slightest thought of that person was an act of transgression. In order to relieve this pressure on herself, she turned her mind to this mercenary guild.

It's not that she doesn't want to know about mercenaries, but she really wants to know. However, due to the long-term hostility between the family and the mercenaries, it was difficult for her to obtain information about the mercenaries. And the families are also hostile to each other, everyone is afraid that they will be grabbed by the other party's pigtails, and it is impossible for other families to know that they dare to cooperate with the mercenaries.

Yura quietly watched the various interactions of the mercenaries here, watching the mercenaries fight in front of the board to snatch a certain commission, watching the mercenaries triumphantly compete with other mercenaries for the completion of their commissions, and the people who were compared were annoyed and angry to fight back.

And as soon as they left the task board - whether the commission was finally taken by a mercenary group, or the competition finally had a result - they didn't care about what had happened before, and with a smile on their faces, they took a large amount of wine from Momo, put it on the table, and began to drink heavily.

Time passed in Yura's complicated gaze, and Huck pinched his fingers impatiently, but Gail was not impatient - rather, as long as it didn't involve Yura, Gail was a very calm and wise man.

The blonde man was as silent as he had just walked in, he just stared at his candy wrapper, as if he was hesitating about something, but finally he pursed his lips and carefully folded the candy wrapper and put it in the palm of his hand.

The waiting time full of anticipation is always extraordinarily long, and even the mercenaries seem to have squandered their enthusiasm and begin to communicate with each other lazily, and some of them have even spread out on the table and started to take a nap. And the person the family was waiting for still didn't show up.

"Damn, I shouldn't trust the mercenaries, I've wasted so much time here, I can even find more possibilities for this time-"

Huck let out a low growl and tried to jump out of here, but Gail joined the blonde man to suppress him.

"You've been waiting so long, do you want to fall short?" Gail frowned, trying to press down the guy who had become extra frizzy since he learned that the black badge was useless, "Today isn't over yet! ”

However, Gail's persuasion was useless, and Huck's eyes were even a little bloodshot. Jura sensed that Huck was in a completely abnormal state. Yes, even though Huck had been angry about his powerlessness before, according to his personality, he should have quickly realized that anger was useless, and he would have worked harder to deal with it aggressively-

"You can be considered a leader like this?" The blond-haired man squinted at Huck, "If you can't be as calm as a leader should have, then at least for Shao's sake, you should also understand what you do right." ”

I don't know if it was because he was provoked by a man who didn't like him, or because he mentioned a best friend, or maybe both, but Huck finally reluctantly sat himself down. In fact, he himself began to realize that his state was a little out of control, but his condition made it impossible for him to think calmly.

He began to stare at everyone in the hall, wondering if he had been drugged or ...... Magic, yes, isn't that what these mercenaries love? With that inexplicable power, people can order something black without realizing it-

Squeak –

The door was pushed open again, accompanied by the crisp sound of heels tapping against the ground.

Silence once again spread through the hall, and this time beneath the calm there was an indescribable excitement and reverence.

Jura felt her heart beat violently, and she knew that this was the person they were waiting for today, yes, it was her. No one else has such an indescribable temperament.

All four of them were looking towards the door, and in fact everyone in the hall was looking at the door now. A sturdy man in a black plush cloak and a head-to-toe bag strolled in. When she reached a point where the backlight of the doorway caused by the setting sun no longer interfered with people's view of her, she pulled her hat back and pulled her hair out of her cloak.

"Momo-" she dragged out her last note and complained lazily, "please give me a warm drink, thank you, it's so cold outside that I regret my decision to go out today." ”

The blonde man exhaled softly. The long silver-white hair that made him familiar with him showed who he was, and after the warm tea that the courteous girl had handed him—God knows why there was tea in this place—the red eyes swept over him and raised one eyebrow.

His face was softened by the expression he had seen so many times—even if he didn't realize it—and for a moment he didn't even think that the other party was the mercenary he had crossed paths with.

Without further delay, the woman walked up to the four members of the family and held out her hand to the only girl among them, even though she was looking at the blond man.

"Apaya, since you're here as a member of your family—" The woman seemed to have a slightly complaining tone, and her voice became brisk again when she saw the candy wrapper in her hand, "Then I'll introduce myself formally." Reins Fili, as you have heard, is the head of the Fili mercenary group. ”
