Chapter Seventy-One: The Flying Fish Thief
The northern part of Lanji is the essence of the entire Duchy of Lanji, the largest port after Mayan City, Flying Whale Harbor is here, and there are many important port transit cities, as well as jewelry and luxury goods production areas are concentrated here, and the monks walk all the way down the road, not to mention the business travelers who come and go on the road, not to mention the towns are also endless.
This also made Huigang go to a heart, there are too many unpredictable places in the wilderness and forests of this world, there are many people, presumably Fei'er will not be in danger of sleeping in the wilderness, and the girl is quite self-reliant and self-reliant, and can take care of herself in a short time.
On the way, he was pleasantly surprised by the travelers or peasant convoys that seemed to be on the street or at the intersection, and so on, all said that they had seen such a girl riding by, and the monk at this time did not know why he could easily judge whether the other party was honest or not, and although he was weak and delicate now, there was an invisible majesty between his gestures, and others would not deceive him.
After asking all the way down, it turned out that Fei'er was actually in the place that the three of them had pre-assigned to search for - Flying Whale Harbor
Whale Harbor is the second largest port in addition to Maya City, where a large number of fishing boats and goods to be transported to the countries of the North of the Big 6 are in transit, unlike Maya City, where everything is exquisite, it seems to be much more free-spirited.
Fei'er's news was abruptly interrupted in Whale Harbor, and when Hui Gang inquired with the guards guarding the gate at the city gate, these people all remembered the cute girl holding the kitten two days ago, but after entering Whale Harbor, her news suddenly disappeared. There was no news near the city gate, and the monk looked at the big city with a population of nearly 100,000 and knew in his heart that he wanted to find the girl to fly. I'm afraid it's a needle in a haystack.
For the next few days, the monk tirelessly ran to various hotels in Whale Harbor and all the places where it was possible to find the girl, but found nothing.
However, the monk also heard some news during the inquiry. The Duchy of Lan and the Grand Duke died of a violent illness in the Mayan City, and the Grand Duke died of grief and transition, and the current regime has been jointly managed by the House of Elders and the Maritime Merchant, and the first announcement is that everything is going on as usual in the country, and all the order will not change.
The proclamation wall of the city hall in Whale Harbor where the monk saw the names of various generals, nobles, and businessmen were sprinkled with the names of the generals, nobles, and merchants. Hui Gang noticed an official position, Lan and the deputy commander of the palace guard: Jia Ni Leng Yue. Seeing this time, the monk suddenly understood a lot of things, and his bad feelings for the female elf Jiani also disappeared a lot.
But the girl Phil seems to melt into the city and can no longer be found.
In the darkness of the city, there are various forces, such as the thieves' guilds. They are the official government underground. Of course, there are also small bands of thieves who live in the cracks of various forces.
For example, "Flying Fish" in the harbor, almost all the groups use the name of the fish, there is nothing unusual, this thief trapped a total of more than a dozen people, taking on some tasks that are not too visible. But the head of the regiment, Garuda, has a strange temper and doesn't accept those unreasonable deals, so life has been very bleak.
However, Galinda's nickname in this city is 'Iron Rose', on the one hand, it shows that she has a strange temper, and on the other hand, it also shows that her skills are high, after all, the strength of the eleventh-level swordsman is not to be underestimated there, and the deputy head is a strong barbarian warrior, and he also has the strength of the tenth-level ground.
Of course, if there is no such person. I'm afraid it has long been swallowed up by other large organizations.,The members of this thief group are all children taken in by the head of the group for various reasons.,On days when there are no tasks, they all wander the streets.,Of course, it's normal to occasionally run into things like dropping your wallet when you're wandering.。
In the bazaar near Whale Harbor, it is full of loud shouting and bargaining, merchants and customers and people of all professions gather to form a noisy crowd and a bustling scene.
On the side of a bakery on the side of the street, a thin young man was watching the crowd coming and going, wearing a brown samurai costume and looking very leisurely.
Before joining Exocet, Gorak was a street thief and was adopted by Galinda to become a warrior, lamenting that his team would not receive any assignments while looking at the pockets of passers-by. Almost all of the young men in the regiment had worked as professional and semi-professional thieves, and when there were no combat missions, they gathered in the bustling streets of Flying Fish Harbor to try to 'pick up' their wallets.
Galinda basically turned a blind eye to these petty thefts, so the emboldened men grew.
Goulak looked at his companions not far away, and estimated in his heart how much income the other party could have, and for them, the stolen money was a secondary pleasure, comparing with each other. Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he saw a young man in front of him asking someone on the side of the road about something.
He naturally didn't care about what he inquired about, but he noticed that the golden young man's waist was bulging, looking at the shape, Gao Lac immediately judged that it was filled with gold coins, and looking at the golden young man's dress, it was definitely not a local person in Flying Whale Harbor, looking at his demeanor and expression, he was very kind, and there was no other weapon on his body, such a person was the best person to be stolen.
Goulak quietly squeezed through the crowd and slowly approached the young man who seemed to have finished the conversation, and thanked the other party with a disappointed look on his face. Gorak pretended to have tripped over something, staggered towards the man, and when he was about to hit him, the young man of Kim was actually very nimble, dodged on one side, and reached out to help him.
The two still rubbed each other, this collision was enough for Gorak, his hand had already held the other party's money bag in his arms, Gorak stood firm, and quickly apologized to the other party. The other party smiled and said sorry, didn't pay attention to anything, and left in a hurry.
In the Flying Fish Thieves, there was more than one person who noticed this golden young fat sheep.
By about one o'clock in the afternoon, the people who were wandering outside in the small courtyard where the Flying Fish Thieves lived began to return, because it was lunch time.
Ten days ago, Captain Galinda took in a girl, not to mention the cuteness of the girl, and took the initiative to take on the meals and housework of all the people in the group, which was a blessing for those of them who had eaten a broken meal for a long time.
After seeing the girl's handiwork, the gospel immediately rises to the level of the blessing of the god of light.
As soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw several people of similar age winking at him in the corner of the courtyard. He hurried over, and while he was here, several young people were together to share each other's achievements with each other whenever they came here. Gorak felt a little proud in his heart, and he had a good harvest today, and he could show his face to his companions.
A few people inside had already squatted there and saw him coming. One of them hurriedly smiled and said:
"Gorak is waiting for you to come, and together we will compare today's harvest. ”
A man on the side hurriedly said:
"Be quiet, be quiet, let the eldest sister hear that we will die, don't you wait for Xigen?"
Several people said in unison, no wait, no wait. Everyone was very excited, and they all looked like they had caught a big fish.
Gorak looked at his companions proudly, thinking that the money I stole today must be the biggest share, but everyone's faces were smug and smug, and he couldn't help but feel strange in his heart, is it that everyone has good luck, sometimes even if they are on the street for a few days, they don't get a little bit of it, is it so coincidental today
"We shouted one, two, three, and pulled them out together. ”
"One-two-three"
Several young people took out the book they had put in their arms, and all of them were dumbfounded, and what was in their arms was actually a stone holding a piece of cloth.
One of them shouted out at the time, and I clearly remember stealing the wallet out of his arms, and it was full of gold coins. Gorak on the side opened his mouth wide in astonishment, the size of which could almost swallow the stone in his hand, and he said:
"I took it out of that golden young man......"
"What I'm also a young man from Kim ......"
"I'm also from that Kim foreign ......"
Several people looked at each other, thinking that this was too coincidental.
The semi-professional pickpockets of the Flying Fish Thieves exchanged views with each other, and now they were all targeting young people with golden short expressions and gentle money bags in obvious places, and it was obvious that they had met the same person.
In the streets of Whale Harbor, all the people know that there are many pickpockets, and they protect their wallets very well, a foreigner walks on the streets with money and no protection, like a light in the dark, and almost every pickpocket will be moved. After stealing the money, it is natural that they will not take it out to look at it, whether it is a densely populated place or a secluded alley, which will obviously cause unnecessary trouble for themselves.
One of these people took a closer look at the stone and the cloth that was wrapped, and the cloth was actually the hem of the back of their shirt, and the stone was the gravel of the road. All of them gasped, that is to say, as they passed by, the young man of gold took out the stone from the ground, tore the cloth from them, wrapped it up, put it back, and retrieved his purse.
This has to be a lot of degrees and skills, if it is a dagger in the arms??, several people felt a chill from the bottom of their hearts.
