The water of the Rhine River flowed 'rattling', and the waves crashed against the banks of the river, making loud movements.

Soldiers armed with new guns surrounded the inn, and in the cold wind, soldiers in iron-gray winter coats stood motionless like hard stone monuments.

Drunken idlers gradually surrounded him.

Looking at these soldiers with solemn faces, some bold sailors mixed in with the crowd and shouted: "Sir, the old camel is not a good thing...... He knew that sooner or later he would have such a day. ”

"Are you here to catch the old camel? If yes, we can report him! Ha ha! ”

Schadenfreude laughter rang out from the crowd.

The two royal knights raised their riding spears, and the Hydra coat pennant 'hunted' in the wind. In the crowd, some sailors with a little knowledge whispered what the two pennants meant, and the nearby streets fell silent.

These people who are fighting on the docks, they dare to make fun of the police and the soldiers...... But in the face of the high nobles, especially the supreme authority representing the royal family, they have awe and even fear that comes from the marrow.

Joe rode Xiaobai and blocked the gate of the inn.

On the gate of the inn, on a huge old shipboard, with quite old-fashioned brushwork, the image of an old camel with a shrewd and treacherous appearance and a high back is drawn, and there is a line of big characters next to it, which is 'Old Camel Inn'.

Joe looked at the inn in front of him and lowered his voice: "This place? He's here? This place is a bit ...... grade Bad, huh? ”

Dock...... Although it is a wharf by the Rhine River, the general rules of the wharf are the same, just like the wharf in the port of Tulum. Joe has been messing around in the docks of Tulum for many years, but where has he not seen it? The old camel inn in front of you knew at a glance that the objects it served were the lower-class sailors and coolies on the docks.

Even, on those cargo ships, the first mate, accountants and others with a little status, they would not come to such a low-grade place.

A middle-aged man in a black coarse cloth coat and a felt hat, with an ordinary appearance, and most of his face hidden in the shadows, laughed dryly and said in a low voice: "He, right here...... As soon as we received the order, we rushed here. So, you can't go wrong. ”

The middle-aged man bowed slightly to Qiao, then took two steps back, silently blended into the crowd, and disappeared without a trace in an instant.

The royal family of the Delen Empire has a secret force directly under them.

Mata XIII is the leader of this secret force.

When Mia and Michael said that Ferdinand was the main messenger behind the chaos in the imperial capital, Mata XIII, who got the news, immediately mobilized manpower to monitor and protect Ferdinand.

Ferdinand, indeed, is happy in this old camel inn!

Qiao Jiling shuddered, he looked back at Mr. Si Gengs, and muttered in a low voice, "It's all, what hobby?" ”

Mr. Strons pursed his lips, took a frozen pear from his bosom, split it into two slices, and handed it to Kuba, who was sitting on the horse's ass behind him.

Poor Kuba, the cold of the imperial capital makes it extremely unaccustomed.

Kuba, who was wearing a special mink coat, trembled and reached out to take two pieces of frozen pears, and the cold pear fell into the palm of his hand, and it also shivered and squeaked twice.

Looking at the gate of the old camel inn, Qiao was hesitating how to go in and arrest people, in the gate of the inn, an old man with a pale face and a crooked step came out with a smile on his face, surrounded by several tall men and horses.

From a long distance, the old camel bowed deeply to Qiao, he looked at the ground, did not dare to raise his head, and said extremely humbly: "Dear lord, the old camel shop welcomes your great arrival...... Ah, we're a decades-old shop, we've always been law-abiding, we've always followed the rules, we've got good wine, good meat...... We ......"

As the old camel spoke, his voice was filled with an unconcealed cry.

"We've been doing nothing bad lately...... Please believe me, it's winter, business is booming, and we haven't done anything bad...... You, you ...... You're ......"

The owner of a low-grade, third-rate inn is surrounded by sailors and coolies with the lowest status on the dock on weekdays, and in terms of operation, he must inevitably touch some unsightly gray areas.

However, the top of the sky is to fight and hurt people, let go of usury and the like, and the old camel has no courage or strength to do more evil deeds.

On weekdays, at most, there are patrol officers who come to the door to make a few noises, and the old camel can easily fool these policemen over. Everyone eats on the same dock, and they don't see anyone who looks up when they look down, as long as there is no major incident, who will be fine?

The old camel dared to swear with the heads of all his ancestors that all the shady things he had done in the past would not allow his inn to be surrounded by the imperial army!

Not to mention...... Surrounded by these royal knights dressed in gorgeous costumes and with a strong atmosphere!

In particular, they also unfurled the Hydra coat of arms pennants that represented the will of the royal family...... The old camel really wanted to cry in front of everyone present - he didn't offend the royals? Even if he has the guts, he has to have this opportunity!

He is a muddy pond here, and there are countless kinds of leprosy-clam-toad, old turtle and so on weekdays, but the members of the royal family ...... Those are all white swans high above, how could they come here and give him a chance to offend and offend?

Joe coughed.

The old camel was about to bend even lower, and he said with sincere fear: "Sir, if you have anything, just give orders...... Even if it's a broken bone, I'll do it for you. ”

Joe looked at the people around her.

The centurion of the Knights of Dadra, who followed Joe, and the centurion of the Royal Order, both drooped their heads, motionless and silent like dead men, and even a little red.

Joe sighed...... I can't say that.

In front of so many people, could he say something like 'Please hand over the Crown Prince'?

Jo sighed, and the old camel knelt on the ground with a 'coo' knock, and several fierce-looking and meaty men behind him also trembled, and knelt on the ground after him.

"Sir, I, I, I've been really ...... lately It's true...... I followed the rules and didn't do anything illegal. The old camel's head was swirling with countless thoughts—was it not that he had recently received a few delicate knick-knacks, and the owner of these knick-knacks had come to the door?

But those few knick-knacks, although delicate and rare, were worth about thirty or fifty gold marks with his eyesight, and the most expensive gold-shelled pocket watch was probably from the hand of a well-known watchmaker, that is, the level of five hundred gold marks......

It is impossible to attract so many regular soldiers and noble knights with this little bit of stolen goods!

Joe touched his head, he had a little headache, there were more and more people watching the excitement in all directions, he felt that there was no way to speak!

At that moment the noise and scolding came from the old camel's inn, and Ferdinand, staggering and swearing, snatched out of the inn's tavern, and staggered towards the door like an old madman.

Behind Ferdinand, two flowery women shouted and cursed hysterically, they followed Ferdinand closely, extremely nimble, like a butterfly wearing flowers, chasing him closely, dexterously waving their claws, grabbing his head again and again, on the back of the neck, there was even a woman who jumped up flexibly from time to time and kicked Ferdinand's ass fiercely with the high heels on her feet.

Several gloomy and desperate Hydra guards, dressed in tattered coarse cloth clothes, staggered out of the tavern and fled after Ferdinand.

"Catch them...... They also owe me thirty-seven gold marks, eleven silver finneys, and twenty-three sous! ”

The shopkeeper of the tavern, a chubby, greasy-faced fat man waving a white towel, mingled in the crowd and shouted loudly, and chased out with a few bartenders.

"Play-woman-people don't pay for it...... This kind of bad old bastard, he definitely won't honestly give me money for drink...... Catch him, catch him, hang up, hang up...... If you don't hand over my wine money, I'll break his old bones! ”

Ferdinand ran out of the tavern out of breath and past the huge parking lot behind the inn's door.

Two inn mastiffs scurried out of the darkness and happily chased Ferdinand, the two large creatures roaring loudly and opening their mouths to figure out if they were going to bite Ferdinand's ankle.

Ferdinand, whose hair was messy and his big nightgown was almost falling off his body, was so embarrassed that he rushed out of the inn door in a puff of smoke.

Then, he jerked in place.

Joe sat on Little White's back and looked at Ferdinand with a stiff expression.

Ferdinand stood outside the threshold of the gate, looking at Joe with the same stiff face, and the many familiar faces around Joe - really, too familiar, whether it is the Knights of the Great Della or the Royal Knights, the knights here are all young children of the major noble families of the Deren Empire......

They frequented Hydrera, and Ferdinand had more or less dozens of meetings with them!

The two women gritted their teeth, screamed, and rushed out after Ferdinand, grabbing him twice and then ...... The two women froze in place at the same time.

It was surrounded by torches and lanterns, illuminating the street in front of the inn.

Jo and a group of richly dressed knights, who were obviously of extraordinary origin, rode tall horses and lined up in the streets.

All around, a large number of soldiers and knights can be seen......

There were two 'coo' sounds, and the two women were as frightened as old camels, and knelt on the ground without saying a word.

A few panting Hydra guards rushed out of the inn gate in embarrassment under the siege of dozens of people, and they were about to pull Ferdinand to escape, when they suddenly saw the scene in front of the door......

The first reaction of several Hydra guards was to raise their hands at the same time, cover their faces, and then turn away.

They are shameless!

Ferdinand suddenly laughed wildly, with a pungent smell of wine, and he swaggered in front of Joe with triumphant steps.

patted Xiaobai's horse neck vigorously, and Ferdinand shouted triumphantly: "A group of uninformed bastards, sir, my money, isn't it coming?" ”

Lowering his voice, Ferdinand whispered to Joe, "Dear Joe, little one...... Yes...... Will you lend me tens of thousands of gold marks? ”
