After Emilio left, Xinghe re-estimated the current situation, Ling's cost in the hospital is about 500 to 600 Dan per day, and the cost of dialysis with low-concentration demon water once a week is 1,000 Dan, which means that Ling's treatment cost for a month will reach a terrifying 40,000 Dan (a month is 49 days in the Illidan calendar, five days a week), and this does not include the follow-up costs, medicine costs, and the cost of surgery, and the cost of surgery is not groundless.

In this case, Xinghe has no reason to refuse to return to Shiva to find Ling's past medical records, two full years have passed since the events in Shiva, and Valhalla has sent out the news that Shiva Town has been buried by mudslides due to geological changes caused by the earthquake, and none of the townspeople have been spared, so they have also set up a monument on the outskirts of Jiangcheng to commemorate those who died in the disaster, and the Jiangcheng government has returned all proposals to rebuild Shiva Town on the grounds that it is too difficult to rebuild and the local government cannot afford it, and Shiva Town, a remote mountain town, has been completely forgotten by the world。

Xinghe knew very well that Shiva Town must have been dealt with by those who covered up what happened in Shiva Town, and it was likely that Shigego would not find anything when he returned there, but even he still had a little hope, at this stage, anything that would help Rei's treatment could not be ignored, and he heard what Emilio said very clearly, if he could, he didn't want to use a high concentration of magic water injection on Rei, Rei's body was already very weak, and it was hard to imagine what her body would be destroyed after extreme treatment。

So he finally agreed to Shigego's decision to go back to Shiva Town alone, and their group saw him off on the outskirts of the city, he didn't have much luggage, a cloth bag, which contained a few pieces of bread, two corns, and the old man Balbo didn't know where he heard the news that Shigego was going to travel far away, and actually asked Emilio to send a small bag of jerky, but he didn't come over, Xinghe watched Shigego carefully put the bag of jerky into the cloth bag, and felt a little emotional, he didn't understand why the old man Balbo was so good to them, and he might really need to find an opportunity to apologize to him。

"Stay safe. "Anton gave Shigego a bear hug.

"Come back early, you won't think that you won't be there when Xiaoling wakes up. Lan Yue pulled her hair to her ears and forced a smile to say.

Shigego nodded, and finally turned his head towards Xinghe, he opened his mouth, wanting to say something to Xinghe, looking at his reaction, Xinghe knew that he wanted to say that he leaked his mouth in the hospital, he patted him on the shoulder helplessly, he didn't actually have any intention to blame him for that incident, "It's nothing, just pay attention in the future, be smart along the way, although there should be no one over there, but you better be careful, run if there's anything wrong, don't be reckless, I don't want us to have another sick number here when you come." ”

Shigego nodded, "Then I'll go." ”

"Let's go, let's go, it's not a, do you still want to cry and cry?" Anton slapped Shigego on the shoulder.

Lan Yue stood behind him and suddenly kicked him, and then as if nothing had happened, when Anton looked back at her, she asked calmly, "Is there anything wrong?"

Looking at her eyes, as long as you dare to answer no, she will kill you, Anton suddenly wilted, "It's okay, it's okay, it's just that my feet are a little itchy." ”

Seeing his reaction, Shigego couldn't help laughing, even Lan Yue couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly, and the atmosphere of parting suddenly became much more relaxed.

Xinghe also smiled and said to Shigego, "Go ahead, we will wait for your good news." ”

Shigego then turned around and left with his cloth bag, looking at his back as he walked away, the smiles on the faces of the three of them gradually faded, and Xinghe clapped his hands, "Okay, it's time for us to do what we can do now." ”

"There's something we can do. Anton asked.

"We went to see if there was any work to be done in Dominica. Xinghe replied with a complicated expression, and Anton and Lan Yue were surprised by his words.

Jiangcheng's Dongcheng District is a complete underground world, a gray area outside the law, Xinghe and their means of making a living here rely on stealing, and naturally they also need channels to sell stolen goods, and Dominica's pawn shop is their biggest channel for selling stolen goods.

Dominic is a well-known black merchant in Dongcheng District, reselling all kinds of things in Dongcheng District, it is said that there is nothing he dare not collect, which Xinghe is not very clear, but so far, Xinghe has not found any stolen goods that Dominic does not collect.

However, what many people don't know is that Dominica has another identity, that is, "bridgemaker", which is a term in the industry, when some people, especially those in the upper class, need to use the power of the underground society and it is inconvenient to come forward in person, a person responsible for matching the two sides appears, this kind of person is the "bridgesmith", the employer places an order for the "bridgemaker", and then the "bridgemaker" goes to find the right person to complete the task.

Dominic is a leader in the industry in Jiangcheng, but he has a characteristic when building bridges, most of the things he is responsible for building bridges require the use of thieves, and he has never been involved in things such as human trafficking and hiring murder.

However, even so, Galaxy still hardly took Dominic's work, most of Dominic's customers had already selected the person they wanted when placing an order, Dominic was only responsible for contact in the middle, and those orders that did not require the completer were either too poorly paid, and Galaxy felt that it was not worth doing, or it was too dangerous for them.

But given the current situation, Galaxy plans to see if Dominica has some remuneration that is okay, but not too dangerous, at least with what they can do.

When they arrived at Dominica's pawnshop, they happened to meet the two small leaders of the "Evil Dragon Society" coming out of the pawnshop, and the two of them were talking about something in their heads, and they didn't notice that Xinghe passed by them, and Xinghe was happy to see this situation, and quickly inserted Anton and Lanyue into the pawnshop from their side.

"How do I feel like these bastards are going to do some kind of fucking trick up again. Anton said as he stared at the two small leaders of the "Evil Dragon Society".

Xinghe glanced at them, "Let them do it, we don't have time to take care of them now." ”

"Oh, look, who's coming, I'm still wondering if you're not coming again, and what kind of garbage do you have to sell this time?" Dominic happened to come out of the back hall of the pawnshop, and when he saw the Xinghe people, he said half-jokingly, "By the way, what about that cute little girl with white hair, and that clumsy boy, why are they gone?"

Dominic is a human being, about forty years old this year, his hair is combed to three or seven points and shines with the luster of hairspray all the year round, a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose forever, a small goatee on his chin, and his clothes are always a white shirt with a hot and straight color vest, this dress may be very sparse and ordinary at a certain high-society drinking party, but in the smoky Dongcheng District, it seems a little out of place here.

He looked polite to Xinghe and them, always greeting them with a smile, but Xinghe knew that under that smiling face was a face of a profiteer who slaughtered you and didn't pay for your life, Xinghe They had to negotiate the price with him for half an hour every time they came here to sell stolen goods, and a watch with a final price of 200 Dan may have only been quoted at 50 Dan at first.

Xinghe was not in the mood to brag with him now, and said straight to the point, "Dominic, we need to work." ”

"Ah, I need to work, I'm still wondering when you're going to come to me, I heard that you've not had such a good time lately. Dominic took out a list from his sleeve and handed it to Xinghe, "Don't worry, rest assured, I definitely don't mean to gloat, this is a list I specially left for you, there is absolutely no problem, and the pay is not low, look, I'm helping you." ”

Xinghe took the list and subconsciously read out the above task.

"Catch the spotted cat in the photo and pay 300 Dan?"

"The stupid cat swallowed a diamond ring and ran away, but the employer was anxious to find him, and I heard that someone had seen it in the west side of the city two days ago. Dominic interjected

"Retrieve the record crystal confiscated by the public bathroom security office, and the honorable fee is 500 dan?"

"It is not excluded that some of our guests have some special fetishes. Dominic made a look of what you know.

"Dominic!" Xinghe took a deep breath and put down the list, although the tasks on these lists seemed unreliable, it could be seen that the tasks given by Dominic were still more taken care of them, "I don't have time to joke, I need money, a lot of money." ”

Dominic tucked the list back into his sleeve and shrugged, "Xinghe, you know, the big deals are basically the designated people. ”

"Isn't there a single anonymous block deal now?" Xinghe asked.

After thinking about it for a while, Dominic stroked his goatee and said, "If I want to say, I just received a big deal with no designated person, the employer bid for 20,000 dan, and then pay 40,000 dani after the deed, but..."

"Just what?" Xinghe asked.

Dominic thought for a while and then answered the question, "This deal is a bit special, the employer didn't say what exactly he wanted to steal, he only said that he wanted to find a skilled but small enough thief to act with them, and just now the employer sent someone to say that the price can be increased, but you know that this is consistent with the rules of our industry, so I haven't made it clear that I will take this order." ”

Just now, Xinghe remembered the two little leaders of the "Evil Dragon Society" who walked out of here just now, "The entrusting party is the 'Evil Dragon Society'?"

"Xinghe, you know the rules of our business, I have nothing to say. Dominic replied with a smile, Xinghe is not a fool, so he naturally understood what Dominic meant.

"Xinghe, we can't take this job. After Anton found out that the client was them, he immediately objected, and Lan Yue also persuaded, "Brother, Anton is right, this is too dangerous." ”

Xinghe knew that Anton and Lanyue's worries were justified, and from the time Xinghe refused to recruit the "Evil Dragon Society", the contradiction between them became irresolvable. It's unwise to join a group of people who are at odds with you and don't know what they're going to do.

"But we need money. Xinghe was silent for a moment before saying, "We may not find a better opportunity for that money." ”

"We sold it. Lan Yue suddenly ripped something from her neck.

"Xiao Yue!" Xinghe stared at Lan Yue's palm tightly, it was a pendant, on the pendant was a piece of crystal clear amber, in the middle of the amber was a leaf with a broken ground, Xinghe didn't recognize what kind of leaf it was, but he felt that the leaf looked very comfortable, he didn't know if this pendant was worth it or not, but this was the only relic that Aunt Ye left her, even when they almost starved to death when they first came to Jiangcheng, the two didn't mention selling the pendant.

"It's okay, the pendant can be redeemed later when you find a chance. Ling smiled and looked at Xinghe, as if she didn't care, but Xinghe noticed that when she handed the pendant to Dominic, her other hand was clenched into a fist, and the joints were white.

Dominic took out a comically looking glasses from his pocket and put them on his left eye, then carefully examined the pendant that Ling handed him, "Hmm... This is natural amber, yes, there are few impurities, and the color is good, but the plant remains are still much worse than insects, and the processing technology of this piece of amber is very rough, I am afraid I can only give the price of 200 dena a gram...... Wait a minute. Dominic seemed to have noticed something before taking the pendant to be weighed, and suddenly stopped, turning to stare at Lan Yue, "Where did you get this pendant from?" ”

"What's the matter, is there anything wrong with the pendant?" Lan Yue looked at him nervously.

"Where did the pendant come from?" Dominic's expression was serious, and it seemed to scare Arazuki.

"Dominic!" Xinghe drank to him.

Dominic also noticed his gaffe, and immediately said to Xinghe with a smile, "Don't get me wrong, I'm just a little curious, I don't mean anything else, really." ”

Although he said this, Xinghe didn't believe what he meant, Dominic never checked the source of the stolen goods and never asked, so he must have found something on the pendant that Xinghe didn't notice, there must be something wrong with it.

Xinghe snatched the pendant back from Dominic's hand, and said without hesitation, "We don't sell the pendant, we take the single job." ”

"Brother!"

Anton and Lanyue called out at the same time, and Xinghe glanced at Dominic and said to them, "I'm measured. ”

Then Xinghe pulled Anton and Lanyue, who were still a little hesitant, out of Dominica's pawnshop, and before taking them away, Xinghe didn't forget to go back and add, "Remember to tell them that we are going to meet in the main square." ”
