Chapter 32: The Butler
Jack walked out of the core territory of the Sand Knife Gang, but he didn't go directly to the trouble of the Red Enchantress, not to mention whether he could get out of the enemy's base alive, as far as Jack's crispy little body, whether he could break into the Red Enchantress's base was a question. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info And, more importantly, the information given by the Sandknives is an extremely broad address, and Jack doesn't really know where the Red Enchantress's base is.
Jack first took a carriage to the north of Starry City, and then he found an inn to stay in.
This hotel is called the Grand Hotel Risbar, one of the five five-star hotels in Star City, not only occupies a huge area and is luxuriously decorated, but also has a very conscientious service, Jack chose a luxury suite on the fifth floor, which has a large floor-to-ceiling window facing south - looking directly into the city lord's mansion.
After settling in, Jack lay down on the large fluffy bed and pulled out a small black square box from the space ring.
He turned the knob on the small box, and first, some noisy sounds came from the box, and the next moment, the hoarse and old male voice overshadowed the others.
"Of course we made this business, silly boy, think about it, a magic rifle is worth fifty gold, what? Of course it's not worth fifty gold, idiot, are you stupid? Who called your math? These 100 rifles are worth at least 500 gold!"
"Boss...... Yes, it's five thousand gold!" an unfamiliar young voice interjected, and the trembling voice didn't seem very confident.
But hearing this, Jack smiled with satisfaction.
The eavesdropping device he had placed in the Sandknife Gang was working steadily and well, converting the voices of those people into radio waves and transmitting them wirelessly to the receiver in Jack's hand, which was converted back into clear sound waves.
The next second, Jack heard Old Bard's voice again.
"You're new here, who allowed you to speak?" Jack was gone, and Old Bud's voice lost its deliberate indifference, but instead carried a wealth of emotion between the laughter and scolding, and of course, the thick accent of the starry city and countryside.
"No, Boss, don't you usually say that you should point it out when you make a mistake!" said the unconfident voice.
"I said yes, should you say you don't know?"
In the sound of ping-pong, the owner of the previous voice seemed to be violently pulled in front of Old Bud, and his voice suddenly became much clearer.
"Uh, boss, I, I think, should I say it......"
The uncertain tone of the voice made old Bard laugh.
"Hahahahaha! What are you worried about? Do you think I'm going to beat you, rob? Don't worry, you have something to say, do what you say! This is our sand knife creed, you do a good job, be brave. Tsk, look at your little body, you still have to exercise, robe!" Old Bard paused and asked suspiciously, "Tom, what do you want to say?"
"Boss, why don't we tell that boy the news?" said Tom in a suffrage of voices.
"Are you talking about the inexact news? Heh, the one that the red enchantress is sure they can open the ruins? No, no, what we pay attention to in doing business is a letter, how can we tell others if the inaccurate news is, besides, Tom, do you know what the ruins are? Any treasure in it can make you a diamond knight in minutes, and you will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of your life, how about it, do you want it?"
"Yes, of course, boss!"
"yes, who doesn't want it!"
...... Not only Tom, but also the old men of the Sandknife Gang shouted together, which made Jack feel irritable for a while.
Thankfully, Jack wasn't the only one who was upset.
"Don't be noisy!!"
Old Bard roared, and the scene fell silent, and he shouted in a rough voice, "I know you all want it, so do you want to tell that kid or not? Let him spoil this good thing? And then the red enchantress can't break the ruins, and we can't be fishermen, you want to do this?"
"Of course not!
"That's it! If that kid dares to mess around without knowing how to do it, Lao Tzu will let him die in the Hengsha River first!"
......
Jack turned off the receiver, his eavesdropping would destroy his magic circle when his magic ran out, so he didn't need to worry about his listening being discovered.
What's more, this wave of his surveillance has undoubtedly made an important discovery.
Relic.
Perhaps it is at the center of this maelstrom!
Jack found a guide map of Starry City from the wooden cabinet in his hotel room, and he planned to visit the library of Starry City to learn more about the city's history, culture, and mysterious ruins.
He opened the door, turned the corner of the hallway, and the next moment he noticed the woman at the end of the straight.
He is about 1.7 meters tall, with a high ponytail, blonde hair, a goose egg face, a high nose bridge, green eyes, and red lips like fire, but he maintains a cold arc. She wears a white undershirt, a black tuxedo and black trousers, and her small but modest breasts and straight ass are perfectly curved by well-cut pants.
Although the woman's face was cold and serious, she had a certain quality that made people impress.
Jack couldn't tell, so he quickly dismissed his idea again, thinking that the reason why he thought the woman was conspicuous was probably because there were only two of them in the hallway.
But soon, Jack stopped vigilantly in front of the woman. The woman in the housekeeper's uniform kept staring at him firmly, which made Jack's heart a little uncertain.
"You're looking for me?" asked Jack, confused, but he had already changed his stance and stopped slashing when he was ready.
The woman nodded and said coldly.
"Are you Earl Jack Scarlett?"
"Uh...... It's me. ”
"I'm Duke Stars' butler, Leigh. On behalf of all of us in Starry City, and the Duke of Starry, I would like to welcome you to our city. ”
"Ah...... Oh, you're from Duke Stars, how did you find me?"
"We have heard that Monsieur Earl is coming to negotiate a business partnership, and the Duke admires his invention and thinks it is a great change, so she has been telling us to keep an eye on his whereabouts. The manager of the Hotel Risbar had informed me of your arrival, and I hurried over. ”
"Hmm...... Then you're here ......."
"I'm here to invite you to the Duke's Palace, and Duke Fanxing attaches great importance to this business cooperation, so she decided to talk to you personally. ”
"So fast, can I walk around the time of Starry City first?"
"Of course you can, but I think it wouldn't be bad if you were to finish your business first and then enjoy the beauty of Star City?"
Hehe......
I'm afraid that if I go to the Duke's Palace, I won't be able to get out again, okay?
