Chapter 50: The Thief
Ma Shen ran wildly all the way, and just now he suddenly remembered that the black rabbit didn't seem to have seen it since he got up in the morning, but it was obviously following him last night.
In my impression, after feeding the black rabbit some forage before going to bed, he fell asleep on the bench, and then this morning because he had just woken up, he completely forgot the existence of the black rabbit in a daze.
Pills, the black rabbit must have been stolen by someone last night, but whoever has such a great ability stole the black rabbit without making a sound.
There must have been a sound when I stole it.,The black rabbit is not a dead thing.,It's a thing that can jump and scream.,It's sure to call a few times.,But I didn't seem to hear any sound last night.。 (Black Rabbit Speaks: What do you mean by not calling, you sleep like a dead pig, and you can't wake up when you scream, I'm also desperate.) )
But in a hurry, Ma Shen is not worried about the life safety of the black rabbit, this is not like the last time Xiao Nasha was kidnapped, the thief who stole the black rabbit can't make a pot of horse meat after stealing the black rabbit, not to mention that the black rabbit is a priceless war horse at a glance, even if the money is panicked, he will not think of eating horse meat, after all, the taste of horse meat is not good, I am afraid that only hungry people will be hungry to eat horse meat.
Now Ma Shen is anxious that if he can't find the black rabbit in a short time, how can he participate in the martial arts competition, or directly use his legs and the No. 11 bus as a horse.
And even if you don't need to run with your legs and find a horse, but without the cooperation of the black rabbit, you will definitely not be able to play your strongest strength.
Anxiously running back to the familiar stool, Ma Shen took a slight breath, it was really a bit difficult to run in armor.
I didn't care about resting, I touched my sweat, Ma Shen squeezed a few crow's feet, walked around the stone bench, touched my chin and thought, I seemed to have tied the black rabbit to it last night... It seems that because there is no place around the stone chair to tie it, it is tied to a small stone pillar not far away, and a small piece of stinky stuff on the side of the small stone pillar is evidence.
So where to start, Ma Shen tried to use the basic tracking skills, but found nothing, there were no clear horseshoe prints on the ground, because it was close to the Red Keep, so the ground was not the kind of dirt ground, but a hard stone road.
The only trace left by the black rabbit is a rope that only half is left, which is the reins used to tie the black rabbit, Ma Shen stepped forward and touched the break of the reins, the incision is very smooth, and there is no burr that has been slowly cut, so it should have been cut off by someone with a sharp weapon.
But this information is useless, it is easy to cut the reins, a slightly sharper weapon and the acceleration of the thief when cutting the rope can be done, the only information that can be obtained is that the thief who stole the horse is not a child, it should be an adult with a certain strength, but this information is the same with or without, there are many adults in King's Landing.
But this also shows that Ma Shen's method of tying the dead knot that he was once particularly confident in has failed, and it is better to spend a lot of time tying the reins into a dead knot, which is not as good as a thief's light knife.
Having said that, who is the ability to steal the black rabbit unknowingly, and he has not woken up himself who is not far away, Ma Shen remembered this question again. (Black Rabbit: I really screamed, you slept too soundly.) )
It's so unlucky, is it so troublesome to participate in a martial arts competition, there is no place to live, and there is a fight with the pervert after drawing a lot, and the armor coat of arms and the like is also bothered and laborious, and now even the horse has been stolen.
So what should I do now, should I go directly to the arena or go to the black rabbit? Ma Shen stood in confusion on the sparsely populated street, most of the people went to watch the martial arts competition, and the street seemed empty.
While he was wandering, Ma Shen suddenly noticed that behind a flower bed full of roses opposite, there was a little boy in tattered clothes with a dirty face secretly looking at him.
Ma Shen was stunned, what was he doing looking at himself?
Suddenly, Ma Shen's eyes lit up, according to the plot in the TV series, there are only two possibilities for this little boy to appear here, one is that he is the thief who stole the black rabbit, or the thief's accomplice, because he stole a knight's horse, he was uneasy, so he came back to secretly investigate the situation.
Another possibility is that he saw something last night and wanted to tell himself, but because he was so tall and mighty, he was hesitant to come up and tell himself.
Holding the principle of preferring to kill mistakes rather than let go, Ma Shen showed a kind smile and walked towards the little boy, and was always ready to chase after the little boy who had a certain suspicion.
Seeing Ma Shen, who was in bright armor, walking towards him, the little boy did not hide as Ma Shen thought, but ran directly over, and while passing by Ma Shen, he stuffed a small note into Ma Shen's hand.
This.. Is it the little bird of the intelligence director Varys? Ma Shen looked at the back of the little boy leaving, frowned and opened the small note in his hand.
Varys was a eunuch with a chubby, bald head, a touch of fat, a penchant for comfortable clothing, brightly colored silks, and soft slippers to hide his footsteps, and a master of disguise, who could easily change his appearance, the way he walked, the smell of his body, and the way he dressed in such a way that others would not recognize him.
He lives on a myriad of secrets and information, and these secrets and information are collected through those little birds.
In order to get more little birds, he picked up lost boys and young girls, the younger the better, after a period of training, so that these children moved quickly and quietly, and even some of the children who became little birds would have their tongues cut off to prevent secrets from leaking.
I looked down at the small note in my hand, and saw that the small note read: Flea Nest Colosseum has an extra black horse today.
Is it a trap?, Ma Shen thought.
Magic Mountain, the blacksmith shop owner Jace, the black rabbit was stolen, and then this note, everything looks like a coincidence, all go with the flow, but Ma Shen feels that these are not coincidences, it should be said that they are not all coincidences, for example, Ed recommended this blacksmith shop to Ma Shen There should be no conspiracy, just a kind introduction, of course, it is also possible that someone deliberately reminded Ed that the best blacksmith shop in King's Landing is Jace's blacksmith shop.
Everything made him feel like he was caught up in a conspiracy the moment he arrived in King's Landing, but he didn't know anything about it.
And he is only a small person at present, who else will deliberately spend so much energy to deal with himself, it seems that he needs a strategist, Ma Shen sighed inexplicably, he is not the kind of person who is particularly good at calculating others, just an ordinary person, otherwise he would not have been so miserable before, and he couldn't even find a better job.
Holding the small note and thinking about it for a while, Ma Shen suddenly took a deep breath and began to laugh, since I don't know who is calculating me, then take a look and know, being timid and afraid of things is not my style, all conspiracies must be based on strength, as long as I plan according to the situation and move with the trend.
