Chapter 65: Deceived
By the time Tali hopped back to the hotel, Lena had already returned first, showing off the goodies she had bought to Leach and Saya.
Previously, because Tali was impatient, Lena would bargain with the stall owner every time she walked to a stall, and in the end she didn't necessarily buy it, so the two went their separate ways.
As soon as she entered, Tali quickly closed the door, proudly showing off her experience.
"You can't be deceived, are you?" said Leach, who was skeptical, he didn't believe in such a good thing.
Saya didn't say anything, and Lena clamored for Tali to take out the treasure for everyone to see.
"Hehe, Captain, you're jealous, I've decided to make this day every year my lucky day!" said Tali as she took out the treasure she had gotten.
"Isn't this just an ordinary egg colored?" said Saya after seeing the true appearance of the so-called baby.
Tali immediately retorted, looking a little angry: "No, I've checked it before, and it's like this." If you don't believe Saya, you check it and give it. ”
"Be careful not to break it!Lena, I'm talking about you!" Seeing that Lena also came up, Tali hurriedly admonished again.
"This ...... I wonder where I've seen ......" Looking at the baby that Tali was carefully guarding in her arms, Leach, who had not expressed an opinion, said with some uncertainty.
Hearing this, Tali immediately became happy: "Really, Commander, you are really well-informed, tell me quickly, what is this, is it very valuable?"
"Wait...... Let me think...... What is it......" Leech frowned, "yes, I remember! Uncle Wright showed me an identical egg, like the egg of a bird called the Golden Crow. ”
"Jin Crow, this name is very high-grade when you hear it, so this egg must be very valuable?"
Looking at Tali's expectant face, Leach really couldn't bear to pour cold water on her, but with the information he knew, she should have been deceived. After much deliberation, Leach decided to tell the truth.
"The Golden Crow is a rare bird, not a monster. Looks, how to put it, are particularly ugly. It has a purple-black disgusting-looking crown on its head, and its feathers are also pitch black, except for the golden feathers on its tail. Because every time the golden crow appears, something bad will happen around, either someone dies or there is a disaster, so the golden crow is regarded as an ominous symbol, and there is even a legend that the golden crow is the pet of the god of bad luck, and basically everyone avoids it. Well, Tali, I've said so much, you should understand, right?"
Tali was quite happy when she heard Leach say that the golden crow was a rare bird, after all, in general, rare means expensive. But the more she listened to it, the more difficult Tali's face became, and the voice of Leach's words was that she had been fooled.
Looking at Tali who seemed to cry, Leach comforted: "Okay, Tali, there aren't many people who have been deceived anyway, and you can earn it back by doing two more tasks." Fortunately, you kept an eye on it and only gave 2,000 Baileys to those two liars, otherwise, if you really have to be cheated out of 20,000, it will be a big loss!"
Unexpectedly, Leach was not comforted, but this comfort, Tali immediately cried: "That...... That's me...... Whole...... All the belongings...... Be...... Is it preparing...... Help the orphanage's ...... Child...... Guys...... ...... for buying gifts, ...... used All...... Gone...... I...... I...... Woohoo......"
"What? what do you want me to say about you, how can such an important amount of money be spent casually?" Hearing that it was used to buy gifts for the children, Leach complained with some hatred, "You have already got your hands on the things, since you know that they were also stolen, why do you leave the money to the scammers, what do you think?"
At the thought of the stupidity she had done, Tali felt so sorry that her bowels turned green and she cried even harder.
"Alright, Leach, don't blame her. Now, let's think about what to do. Why don't we get the money for Tali first?" Saya suggested, hugging Tali.
"How can that work!" As soon as she heard that she had to pay for it herself, Lena immediately stood up and vetoed, "This matter can't just be left alone! we should go and find out those two liars, we can't let them go so easily!"
"That's right, I can't let them go! I must make them look good!" Hearing Lina's words, Tali said viciously.
Although there was a little bit of a complaint that Lena was still a dime at this time, but seeing that Tali didn't cry under her drive, Leach nodded and agreed: "Okay, Tali, you clean up, while it's not dark yet, let's hurry to the place where you were deceived before, and inquire about those two people separately." Since those two people were locals, there would definitely be people who recognized them. ”
......
Things went much more smoothly than expected, and after a few inquiries, they got the information they wanted.
The two people who deceived Tali are also well-known in this area, of course, not a good name. According to local residents, the short man was exiled to the area, and the strong man was an orphan in the area.
The two of them usually specialize in some cheating and abduction, because they never touch the bottom line of the escort, that is, they don't provoke the local residents, so they have been living a fairly good life.
It's not that no one wants to get revenge on them, but the little man is very shrewd enough to pick out people who don't seem to have a backstage, and they have joined a small local gang, and seem to have taken the position of a small leader in that gang, which directly discourages those who have been deceived by them.
After inquiring about the location of the so-called gang, the four of them walked over there without saying a word.
Maybe they were used to being powerful, only two thugs were lazily leaning against the wall at the door of the station, and after seeing the four of Leach, they wanted to show off their might, but before they could speak, they were thrown against the wall by the angry Tali one by one and fainted.
"Haha, boss, today we met another fool who bought a golden black egg for two thousand baileys. Originally, I wanted to test it to see if I could blackmail a little more, but I didn't expect to be beaten up by her directly. It's a pity that a very beautiful little girl does things like a man's wife. ”
Outside, Leach could clearly hear the voices and laughter inside.
Then, Leach watched as the blackened Tali burst into the house. It's just a bunch of ordinary thugs, and Tali can handle it alone.
After a burst of noise, Leach walked in with the other two daughters, Shi Shiran.
