Chapter XXVII. Gathering Information

readx; When Peter and the others left the church, Wren said inexplicably: "That's it, I thought it was going to make things difficult for us, but it turned out to be like this? Isn't this task very simple, maybe there are some dangers in the forest, as long as we are careful." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info" He spread his hands out and made a puzzled look at Peter.

Peter pursed his lips and waited until he had finished before answering him earnestly: "How can it be so simple, although it is just for us to find some herbs." But there is no mention of the type, no mention of the quantity, no clear task requirements, just look for herbs and it's over. I don't think it's that simple, don't we go and don't find it or find it back, he says the type is not right, the quantity is not enough. It's so easy for us to make such a general request and find a reason to make it difficult. Peter sighed and looked up at Father Kerver in his heart.

After listening to Peter's analysis, Wren looked shocked, he tilted his head, and thought for a while, there was no good way to deal with the situation in front of him, so he asked Peter repeatedly. "Is there anything you can do to cope with the past?"

Peter just shook his head and didn't say anything. Seeing this, Wren had no choice but to remain silent, and the group hurried back to the hotel they had just left.

The innkeeper was dozing off on the counter, and when he heard the movement, he tried to raise his head, opened his eyes, and saw that they were lazily saying hello and wanted to continue sleeping on his stomach. Peter hurriedly glanced at Wren, and Wren came to the boss with understanding, chatting with each other. Peter and Eva went upstairs to take a look at the map given by Father Eddie and study it to see if there was any detailed information about Taji.

However, to his disappointment, there was only a few sketches of information on the map, which was not very useful for their next mission.

Eva sat on the edge of the bed with a rejuvenated Emma in her arms, and she knew the current situation by looking at Peter's face. She teased Emma and said to Peter, "Do you want us to find a guide? She smiled as if she had thought of Peter leading everyone to get lost in the forest.

Peter ignored Eva's jokes, and he threw the map in his hand onto the table in front of him and slumped into his chair and sighed.

"I really can't do it, I can only find someone to lead us in, it's not enough, I don't think there is much hope. Looking at the prestige of Father Kerver at this gathering point, it is clear that no one will help us. He said in a dejected tone.

"He's still prestigious here? Didn't the boss say that the people here hated Kerville so much. Eva retorted dismissively to Peter.

Peter scratched his head in annoyance, and he said to Eva uncertainly, "We don't know if what the boss said is true, maybe they were forced by Father Kerver to tell us some false information." So now we can only rely on ourselves, and there is really too little help that others can give us. ”

Eva sighed when she heard Peter say this, teasing Emma and saying nothing.

The room fell silent, and Peter felt a hint of oppression. He twisted uneasily, and took the map in front of him again. For a moment, both of them were quietly thinking about their own thoughts. Emma's eyes rolled back and forth on the two of them, she didn't know what she thought, she opened her mouth in surprise and quickly covered it with her thin little hands, she stayed quietly in Eva's arms, and she didn't dare to say anything.

After a while, Peter irritated himself as he took out his pocket watch and looked at it, muttering to himself why Wren hadn't come back yet. Finally, he looked at Eva in silence, licked her lips, and said, "I'll go downstairs and see what Wren is doing." You wait for me for a while. Eva came to her senses, nodded and watched Peter leave the room.

As soon as he reached the top of the stairs, he heard the boss's loud voice and kept saying all kinds of words of unknown meaning.

Peter was stunned for a moment, and walked downstairs curiously, and saw Wren sitting at the counter with a desperate face, listening to the innkeeper's mouthful, and he looked sluggish, as if he had received a huge psychological blow. When Wren saw Peter coming down, he was in high spirits, and hurriedly used all his strength to break free from the boss, holding his hand tightly and running in front of Peter.

Peter couldn't help but feel a pang of shock when he saw Wren's miserable white face, and just as he was about to find a reason to get out of here, he saw the boss wave to the two of them in a hurry and motioned for them to go and sit together.

Wren didn't want to be tortured any more, so he shook his head at Peter, and when he saw that he didn't understand, he stomped his foot, gritted his teeth, and ran upstairs himself. Peter was stunned when he heard the boss say, "Hey, why did you run away, I just talked about the wonderful place." Hey, people, what a ......," Peter was shocked when he saw the boss's unfinished look, and he quickly turned around and wanted to go upstairs.

At this time, the innkeeper managed to find a few listeners and how could he let him run, and the owner shouted at Peter's back: "Oh, don't run away when you talk about you." Aren't you going out into the forest to look for herbs, I know some news, are you interested?"

Peter stopped with difficulty, and his mind struggled for a while, and a voice said to him, "Don't go." It's dangerous," another voice shouted in his heart after a while, "come and listen, maybe there's some important information." ”

He thought about it for a long time before he made up his mind, and with great perseverance turned around and walked to the front of the counter, and the innkeeper saw Peter coming, smiling like a flower.

He enthusiastically wiped the counter and poured a glass of water for Peter, who sat down in surprise and was mentally prepared. As he expected, the innkeeper couldn't stop as soon as he spoke, and what nonsense he had been talking about for a long time was of no use to their next task. Peter tried to interrupt him several times, but his boss diverted him from the topic and continued to tell the story he thought was wonderful.

Just as Peter was feeling impatient, the boss sighed as if he knew he had reached his limit, and then turned to the forest outside.

"There are no other dangers in the forest, except that you have to be careful of the bears. The forest is the habitat of the giant bear, and many, many giant bears are there. Be careful when you go in. Just because of those goddamn bears, my business is so bad right now. The boss said and cursed a few words at the end.

Peter didn't quite understand what the bear had to do with his business, but it didn't matter, and his attention was now drawn to what the boss said.

When the innkeeper had just finished pouring a glass of water to drink, Peter hurriedly asked, "So do you know what kind of herb we need to find?"

The innkeeper looked at him in surprise and said with a smile: "How can I know this, I don't even know what herbs are used for, how can I know what you need to find." If you're looking for a guide who can help you, I'm sure you're looking for the wrong person. After saying that, he shrugged his shoulders and grinned a mocking expression at the corner of his mouth.

Peter didn't pay any attention to this, and he turned to the innkeeper, "Do you know where to find a guide?" he looked at the other man expectantly, anxiously.

The innkeeper sighed at Peter's anxious expression, hesitated before whispering to Peter, "You are late, and the best guides have been sent elsewhere by Father Kerver." Now, no one in the entire gathering point will accompany you to the misty jungle outside. ”

Peter smiled wryly and thanked his boss, turned around and walked upstairs. He felt a chill rise from the soles of his feet to the top of his head, and his back was soaked.
