The man's back seemed familiar. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 Having just returned from work at the rich merchant's estate, Hunter and his colleague were passing around a corner and saw a very familiar back. Hunter lived in a neighborhood with the colleague's family, and they belonged to outsiders, who had come here with the wealthy merchants of Ortlenburg's take-off. When they arrived, they found that the once notorious city had changed dramatically, and that there was a very strong sense of xenophobia.

It's hard for outsiders to blend in with the people here, unless it's a marriage.

Hunter has already been married, and he has no plans to marry another one, not because he doesn't want to, but because he can't afford it. A wife and two children already made him a little tired, and if there was another woman and a few children, it would be better to let him die.

Every day, he has to drink some wine with his companions before coming home, which can be said to be a hobby, or a little spice in a numb life.

But the back of the person in front of him is indeed very familiar, as if he has seen it in a certain period of time in the past few days, but no matter how he thinks about it, he can't think of where he has seen it.

It was his companion who reminded him, "That tavern." ”

Ah, yes, the tavern. Hunt's steps stopped, his face changed, and he remembered what had happened to him in the tavern, and his heart was uneasy. At the same time, he was also a little curious, he had long seen that something was not quite right with the tavern, how could there be a tavern that he did not want to do business? and he had never gone up to the second floor, and once he had a treat, and wanted to go upstairs, but was stopped by the bartender. It also made him curious about the second floor of the tavern, what exactly was there?

"What's wrong?", his companion asked.

Henry nodded, "Follow up and have a look." ”

This sudden thought made him a little baffled himself, and his companion looked at the sky, anyway, it was still early, and there was nothing to do to go back, so he agreed to Hunt's suggestion.

They were divided into three shifts, one in the morning, one during the day, and one overnight in the evening. Today they were on duty during the day, and it was only half past four, and it was not yet dark. Usually they would wander outside until six or seven o'clock before returning home, and after eating something and making out with their wives, they would go to bed. This kind of life is boring and boring, and finding some fun for themselves is something they need to think about every day.

The two men followed the man, and soon they noticed something unusual, and Hunter glanced at the two guys not far in front of him and said to his companion, "There are others following him, but are they so blatant that they are not afraid of being discovered?"

The other two people simply didn't take the mysterious man who hid his head and tail seriously, and actually walked behind the man with a big thorn, and did not hide his deeds, which was simply a joke! But this aroused the interest of the two of them to find out, and they had already seen the people with heads and faces in the whole of Oltlenburg, and they would always remember the local decent people everywhere they went, and those people could not be offended, but this guy in front of them was not among them.

Coupled with Ortlenburg's excellent order and rules, they are not afraid of what will happen to them.

After about half a circle in the city, at an intersection, the man had just turned the corner, and the moment two blatant followers slowly turned the corner, several young men suddenly rushed out from the other side and knocked them to the ground. Several people fell together, and they couldn't get up in a hurry. Hunter glanced at his companion and immediately quickened his pace and rushed around the corner. They watched as the man's back got into a very ordinary carriage.

Then a woman and a child boarded the carriage, which drove slowly in the direction of the city gates.

If it's just for fun and watching the excitement, then that's the end of it. But Hunter and his companions had traveled through most of the empire with the wealthy merchants, and they saw and heard so much that they immediately realized that there was something wrong with it.

Their main family is quite old, and they have recently revealed their intention to settle in Ortlenburg. With Rennes' status growing, the prospects for Ortlenburg's future have attracted many. Not to mention the fact that many monopolized goods could only be bought here, and that it was necessary to pass through them to transport goods to the Byron Empire, and that Ortronburg would inevitably become a prosperous commercial port city like Alexandria.

This also means that their guards, who have been adrift for half their lives, may also have to settle here. Then integrating into the local area and becoming a local has become something that they urgently need to solve. Otherwise, they will not be able to enjoy many social resources, such as the pension system, such as the free medical care system, such as free education. These are all extremely luxurious, and some things that even the elite in other cities can't enjoy, can be enjoyed here for free.

But there's one premise, and that's that you have to be an Ortlenburg native first.

The hukou system is a piece of waste paper a lot of the time, but it plays a vital role here. If you don't have a local household registration, don't think about any benefits.

And now, perhaps, it is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

"You go and inform the garrison, and I'll follow. He patted the long sword at his waist, and immediately followed the slow carriage after giving a command. His companion did not dare to take it lightly and ran quickly.

The pony cart seemed to have a very definite purpose, and it didn't seem to move fast, but it crossed two blocks faster than expected, approaching the city gates. Hunter wasn't sure if he should talk to the soldiers defending the city about it, so he decided to wait and see.

The carriage soon stopped in the gate hole, and the three people inside came down, but Hunt rubbed his eyes, for he found that there was no one before among the three.

A little woman in her thirties, dressed in a cheap dress, blushing like a monkey's buttocks, and the inferior foundation and blush made her miserable. The child bit his fingers woodenly, his eyes did not have much luster, and he smiled from time to time like a fool. The only man was also hunched over, with a flattering smile on his face, and his coarse shoulders made him not much different from the ordinary residents around him.

"Where are you going?", the soldier took the household registration and carefully examined it, scanning the faces of the three men against the description on the household registration before returning the household registration to them. There is no such advanced thing as a camera in this world, and magic imaging has been produced in the Imperial Research Institute, but due to the cost, further research and development has been stopped. Therefore, there are no photographs and portraits on the household register, only descriptions of human characteristics.

For example, there is a mole on the chin and three long hairs on the mole. There is a birthmark behind the ear, and the birthmark is like a pig's kidney that has been gnawed by a dog.

If Hunter had planned to talk to the soldier before he had met the three men, especially the man, he hesitated instead. The city gate is one of the most important places in a city, and if something happens, it is likely to cause martial law in the whole city, and he can't afford this charge, so he is willing to wait a little longer.

"My lady is from Lilith's side, and we're going to visit the elders at her house. The man took back his household registration and nodded his head and didn't look like a big man at all.

The soldier nodded, walked to the side of the carriage, lifted the curtain, looked inside, pounded it with the stick in his hand, and retreated, "You can go." ”

"Thank you, thank you!", the man picked up the child and put him in the car, helped the woman into the carriage, and thanked the soldier again before climbing up slowly. This has happened all the time since the radical changes that have taken place in Ortlenburg. Many people from other places are proud to marry their daughters into the city, and the people of Ortlenburg can also stand up and behave, and they were looked down upon before, but now they have changed dramatically, and many people are even proud to have a relative in Ortlenburg.

Many people are happy to visit their relatives like this.

Hunter didn't dare to stop longer, after all, it was the horse that pulled the cart, and he might not be able to keep up once he galloped. Glancing back at the calm street, he gritted his teeth and followed.

He was carrying a long sword, which was naturally the type that attracted much attention, and before he reached the city gate, two soldiers were lying on the side of the road. He immediately took out his identification and handed it over, one of them stared at him vigilantly, and the other checked the certificate and changed it to him, "Out of the city alone?"

Hunter stared at the carriage that began to move, nodded absentmindedly, a trace of doubt flashed in the eyes of the two soldiers, and at the same time pressed his hand on his shoulder, "We're going to check." ”

Hunter was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously wanted to raise his hand to push the soldier away, he was unintentional, but the soldiers were intentional, and immediately pulled out his long sword and put it on his neck.

After Wren returned to Ortlenburg, the level of martial law in Ortlenburg increased by more than one step, in fact, the previous checks on entering and leaving the city were not so strict.

In a hurry, Hunter couldn't help but shout, "Stop that carriage, there's something wrong with the people inside!"

The soldiers at the city gate were stunned, and the driver immediately whipped the whip in his hand, and the carriage instantly shot out like a sharp arrow from the string!

It was at this time that Hunt's companions arrived with the men of the garrison. His companions had already found the garrison, but they didn't find Hunter and the carriage nearby, and it took a while to remember to look at the city gate.

"Stop that carriage!", shouted the guard, and the soldiers at the gate immediately rushed into the horses tied to the cave in the gate, turned on their horses, and whipped out.
