Chapter 202: This accomplice is very familiar

"You mean, you've seen that woman in her twenties before, with blond hair, a pointed chin, and a weird-sounding voice, was here before?"

In the largest potions shop in Garter City, Wallis stands with Benjamin. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info They suppressed their excitement and looked at the clerk who looked a little dazed, and asked.

After coming to the city, they split up as caravans. Wallis gave them a simple introductory lesson in caravanserais, so they wouldn't have any major problems with acting. As a result, they can naturally communicate with the people here, carefully probing the whereabouts of the "lady" and Augustine without revealing themselves.

Wallis and Benjamin, on the other hand, went to the potions shop in the city for mages and mercenaries, first, to find clues, and second, to deal with the novice potions made by the two apothecaries these days.

Originally, they didn't have much hope in their hearts. Nothing was heard along the way, and they even began to wonder if the "lady" had used some kind of disguise to disguise all the physical features they had taken out of the robbers' mouths. That's why they don't find anything all the time.

However, what they didn't expect was that in this beautifully decorated potions shop, they suddenly found a clue again.

"Ah...... Yes, it was a very beautiful lady. The clerk nodded, then showed some puzzled eyes, and said, "Don't you have a batch of healing potions that you want to sell at a low price?

"She's a niece of mine. Wallis said without changing his face, "Some time ago, one of my merchant ships went missing. She was also nowhere to be seen on that ship. We have been in a hurry to find her back, and finally found out that there is her nearby, so we couldn't help but ask more, have you really ever seen her?"

As he spoke, Wallis also showed a somewhat sad expression, and Benjamin hurriedly cooperated with the performance, patting him on the shoulder sympathetically as a sign of comfort.

"That's right......," the clerk's expression seemed a little embarrassed, "It's true that I saw her, but I'm afraid you will be even more sad when you hear the specific news." I think she probably deliberately didn't contact you. ”

Wallis shook his head and said, "It's okay, just say it, I know what kind of person she is." ”

However, the clerk looked around for a moment, and suddenly lowered his voice: "So, you also know about her eloping with someone?"

...... Elope?

Hearing this, Benjamin and Wallis glanced at each other, and couldn't help but show some subtle expressions.

"I know it's a bit ugly to say this kind of thing, and you must be very sad. The clerk sighed, and then continued, but his tone gradually became gossipy, "But ah, that lady first had a big fight with the man in our store, and then, she chased after the man, and the two of them chased him all the way out, which was really eye-catching." ”

The expressions of the two were even more strange.

At that moment, Benjamin even began to wonder if the clerk had recognized the wrong person. The woman he described was just similar in appearance to the "lady", but in fact they were two people?

Otherwise...... Why does this unfolding sound a little wrong?

"I want to ask. After thinking about it, Benjamin opened his mouth and described Augustine's appearance, "Is the man with her a middle-aged man of nearly forty years old, with brown hair, medium height, and a hump on his nose?"

If the two people described by the clerk were really "Madame" and Augustine, then Benjamin would have to think carefully about what had happened and whether they would have to continue their search.

Thankfully, the clerk shook his head.

"No, the man looked young. "He has light brown hair and is not short." If it weren't for that annoying laziness in him, I would even think that he was a perfect match for that lady!"

At this moment, the brows of the two people furrowed again.

What's the situation?

They were relieved to confirm that the man who was traveling with them was not Augustin. But correspondingly, an unidentified guy appeared in front of their eyes.

Who was he? The woman's accomplice? What the hell were they going to do, and the accomplice came up?

"That'...... Have you found a big box or sack or anything like that on my niece?" asked Wallis, after a moment's hesitation.

"Yes. The clerk replied unusually cheerfully, "The two of them also have a cart with bags and bags of stuff." What's wrong? Is it the goods she stole from you?"

Hearing this, Wallis showed a clear expression, did not speak, but nodded a little sadly.

Nine times out of ten...... Augustine was knocked unconscious and stuffed into the sacks, and his mouth was gagged, so he couldn't use the spell at all.

However, at this moment, Benjamin's face changed slightly, and he spoke, and said a little solemnly: "I want to ask, is the man who is with her green eyes, short hair, and a faint scar behind his ear?"

The clerk's eyes widened immediately and he nodded, "yes, you know him too?" I tell you, if he hadn't been arguing with the lady in the store for a while, I wouldn't have noticed the scar. ”

Hearing this, Benjamin's expression also became a little complicated. He didn't say anything, just smiled politely at the clerk, but in his heart, he suddenly sneered secretly.

Oh, yes......

If he hadn't frozen the man in the ice for so long, he wouldn't have found the scar.

Listening to this conversation, Wallis looked at Benjamin with a dazed expression. Obviously, he didn't know what Benjamin meant by the sudden question.

Who are they talking about? Has this man ever appeared?

But...... He couldn't ask on such an occasion.

Suddenly, no one spoke, and the scene was awkward for a while, and Wallis immediately smiled professionally when he saw this, and said, "Thank you very much for the news you gave us, if I find her, I will definitely thank her." But for now, let's talk about healing potions. ”

Hearing this, the clerk was stunned, and then smiled: "Okay, I'm happy to be able to help." Yes, regarding the treatment of the drug, the price of our store is ......"

In this way, the conversation was diverted, and Wallis returned to his identity as a merchant, and began to bargain with the clerk about the sale of healing potions. As for Benjamin, he stood to the side, with a polite smile on his face, but his eyes fell to some empty place, not knowing what he was thinking.

About half an hour later, Wallis and the clerk finalized the deal. Probably because the healing potion is too basic, and there is no room for maneuver in price, so even if Wallis has many years of experience as a businessman, he can't raise the price.

So, they sold the healing potions they had made these days for more than a hundred gold coins at a low price, and then left the shop together.

When leaving, the clerk also warmly wished them that they could find their "niece" as soon as possible, what a nosy and good person.

Soon, Wallis returned to the inn with Benjamin, confused.

"Mr. Benjamin, what's going on? Do you know that accomplice in the clerk's mouth?" After confirming that there was no one around, Wallis couldn't suppress the doubts in his heart, and immediately asked.

Benjamin shook his head and sighed.

"If I really knew him, I wouldn't have to worry about it. After thinking about it, he opened his mouth and explained, "This person ...... Before we had just entered Ikor and had not yet arrived in Hanktown, there had been a guy who had appeared in the Queen's barracks during the night. He disguised himself as a lost businessman, came to our camp, and ......"

In this way, Benjamin gave a general description of the scene, and told the story of the man who easily broke free from his ice and disappeared without a trace. Hearing this, Wallis was also a little surprised by that kind of power, and he had to show a frightened look.

However, Benjamin did not tell Wallis what was on the last strip of cloth that the man left behind.

-- The mysterious young man who appeared with his wife was the only one who knew how to call Benjamin Benjamin by the name "Benjamin Reese."
