The Wolf and the Wild Rose

In the morning, after opening the store on time, Amy lay on the counter and listened to the sound of rain outside the house that had not stopped since last night, and couldn't help but feel a little bored. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info The rain drove away all the customers, and sitting alone in the store, she could only be in a stupid daze.

Suddenly there was a crisp jingle of bells at the door, and she raised her head and looked towards the door. I saw Gary, who was wearing a gray cloak, entering the door and closing the black umbrella in his hand. So she greeted her, "Boss, are you back?"

"Hmm. Gary groaned and nodded, his expression showing a hint of exhaustion.

As she spoke, she took the drenched umbrella, shook the water off the house a little, and put it into a delicate hollow umbrella bucket full of iron flowers. This is an obligation of her work, and she is quite happy to serve this kind boss.

"Where's Fanny? Is she still working on that annoying pattern?" asked Gary, taking off his cloak and hanging it on the wall behind the counter.

"Sister, she left a note yesterday and left. With that, Amy took the note out of her pocket and handed it over.

"It's okay to go. Hearing the other party's answer, Gary just lifted a transparent glass jug, poured himself some water, and drank it slowly, but he didn't mean to take the note.

This left Amy's hand holding the note in the air, and she didn't know if she should take it back: "Boss, don't you want to see what is written on it?"

"What else could it be, isn't it that she's found the secret in the pattern, and then there's going to be a big discovery or something like that. Gary, who was holding the glass, lazily glanced at the somewhat crumpled note and said, "This water tastes good." ”

Amy thought back to the contents of the note and found that there was indeed no big way out of what the boss said. Then I suddenly remembered something, "Boss, that pot is the rainwater I brought to water the flowers......"

"Ahem......" Gary choked on the water and coughed.

"By the way, boss, there don't seem to be many magic cores in the store, and there are not enough inscription magic cores. At this time, the girl who remembered the business reported it.

"Oh, yes. It's true that the magic cores I have received recently are a little less, and I don't know what's wrong, so let's write a recruitment notice, and we'll hire a person to provide the magic cores on a regular basis. The daily salary is 2 silver coins, and 3 Tier 1 Magic Cores and 1 Tier 2 Magic Core are required every day, and the Tier 3 or above Magic Cores are not limited to recycling, and the price is calculated separately. ”

After hearing her boss's offer, Amy couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded, 2 silver coins, that's a sky-high price. You know, she only earns 2 silver coins a month working here now. But if you do the math, this price is actually not high, the recovery price of 3 first-order magic cores is about 100 copper coins, and the second-order magic core is also about 100 copper coins, so the real salary is 60 copper coins.

60 copper coins is still a high salary, but it is not easy to get this salary, after all, you have to destroy at least three first-order demonic beasts and one second-order demonic beast every day. This is not something that everyone can do, and of course, if there are people who can do it easily, they will probably not be satisfied with these wages.

After the order, Gary scratched his head again: "I'm going to go to sleep, wake up in the afternoon and start processing the magic core, don't prepare my lunch at noon." ”

"Okay, boss. ”

"You know, Amy, I'm going to have to give you a raise. Gary said with a sudden smile, and then said to himself: "I don't want to lose such a good employee, plus nanny." With that, he yawned and prepared to walk to the room in the back room.

But he was stopped again: "Wait for the boss." ”

"Anything else?"

"I almost forgot, yesterday a man who claimed to be your friend came to you and asked me to give this to you. With that, Amy ran to the back of the counter and pulled out a yellowed tooth. I couldn't tell what kind of creature it was from the surface alone, but there was some dullness between the teeth, and I could feel the uneven surface in my hands.

When Gary saw the tooth for the first time, Amy saw in his expression that the tooth was unusual. As if this was the first time, she caught such a solemn look on the other person's face.

"What does that man look like?" he asked.

"He had a scarf around his head and a hood over his shoulders, and I couldn't see what he looked like. But listening to the voice, it seems to be a middle-aged man. The girl replied truthfully, even though he tried hard to give more answers, but there really was no other impression in his mind than that strange voice, and a muddy voice.

Gary nodded slightly, clutched the beast tooth in his hand, and silently walked into the back room.

Listen to the Hai Town Sheriff's Office

Pete and one of his teammates were moving forward at the same pace, now they were all wet from the rain and their hair was hanging down in a wilted manner. But the two of them couldn't spare their hands to deal with the upsetting rain at the moment, because they were carrying a big guy in their hands.

"This guy grew up eating something, sinking like a dead pig. Said a teammate walking in front.

Looking at the guy in his hand, the blue face that was completely lifeless, Pete nodded and said, "Totally agree." "At this time, it is true that he can be called a dead pig, and they have more than one thing in common.

Carrying the corpse into the basement, a gloomy cool air came to my face, and there was a pungent smell in the cool air, but it smelled like it was hiding something.

In the dim light, after walking for a short time in the narrow aisle, the two saw an iron door that was hidden and pushed it in. The other three inside slowly moved their gaze to them, the corpse in their hands.

"Another one?" said one of them, an old man with gray hair and a goatee.

"What's so nice about these corpses? We should start arresting that murderer quickly. At this time, the middle-aged short-haired round-headed man beside the old man said. He should also be used to the smell in the air, so he can open his mouth wide at the moment. This is the chief officer of the top 10 teams of the vigilante, Albert.

Hearing the other party's usual thoughtless words, Pete couldn't help but want to glance at the pig's head that grew on a human body, but he couldn't help it. With all his might, he and his teammates placed the corpse on the long stone platform and displayed it with the other corpses. Soon, he'll be stripped of all his hair.

Looking at Albert with an anxious face, Pete really felt funny, if it wasn't for the death of so many people overnight this time, could this guy still look so nervous and serious?

"My lord, these people are all poisoned to death. The gray-haired old man said politely.

"You haven't forgotten what you said, have you? Albert said with a slight mockery.

"Then you can't forget that there was a similar poisoning incident not long ago, right? I can already confirm that the toxin in the body of the deceased today is very similar to the toxin in the stabbing incident," the old man known as Doctor Lane replied with an unchanging face, "It's just that no one died in the last incident." Speaking of which, I wonder if you remember, my lord, that I said that I should investigate that incident thoroughly?"

Albert, who was choked by this sentence, was speechless, and could only spread his anger on Pete and Pete, who were still waiting for him: "What are you two bastards waiting for dead moths waiting for?

'I'm watching a big moth yelling five and six. With that, Pete and his teammates walked out of the morgue. But since it is rare for the boss to allow an investigation, it is really time to act.

"It's been a busy morning, Pete, let's go have some breakfast!" his teammates suggested after walking back to the ground.

After secretly praising the other party's lenienness, Pete shook his head: "I still have some things, you wait for the captain to finish moving, let's go together." "You're all equally wide in heart anyway," he added to his heart.

After saying that, he picked up his umbrella and walked out of the General Administration.

Silent Wasteland

In the bitter cold, Saza opened his eyes. In front of me, a familiar picture was presented. 'It's this damn dream again!' he couldn't help but cry out in his heart.

But this time, it's raining.

In the rain, as if he had passed, he walked slowly and uncontrollably towards the village. He never turned his head at this moment, but it didn't happen, and on the dead tree behind him, there was this red figure...... (To be continued.) )
