In the middle of the night, there are still not many houses with lights on in the city of Stanlow, especially in the slums in the south of the city, which will be completely darkened at night, while in other areas, you can occasionally see a little spark. Ordinary people usually have kerosene lamps for walking at night, and candles are a lighting prop that only the more wealthy in the city can afford.

And because there are few entertainment activities at night in Stanlow City, and everyone has the habit of going to bed early, it is rare to see people walking outside at night.

But tonight there was an extraordinary, and I saw two carriages rolling slowly towards the city gate, the front one carrying people, and the one behind carrying goods.

"Who?" was guarded by the night watchman at the city gate, and when he saw the carriage coming, he surrounded him with a torch in his hand.

"Knights, our Naibao Chamber of Commerce, this time we are in a hurry to go out of the city to deliver goods" I saw a middle-aged rich man jump down from the carriage, blocking the night watchman who was about to surround and hurriedly said affectionately, and took out a cloth bag from his arms and stuffed it into the hand of the person led by the night watchman.

"It turned out to be the owner of Naibao, brothers, this is the owner of the Naibao grocery store in the city, my acquaintance. The man weighed the cloth bag in his hand and immediately smiled.

"Exactly, exactly" The middle-aged rich man also nodded hurriedly when he saw this.

"Release!" a man waved at the men on the city wall.

The huge wooden gate made of alpine red pine, covered with iron leaves, and chiseled with large copper nails, was slowly opening, and the night watchmen who had been surrounding them were making way for the caravan to pass.

"Wait!" suddenly came a cry from behind the caravan.

A fast horse came out of the way, and it was none other than Gna, one of Mick's lieutenants.

"Captain Mick has an order, stop all movements and close the city gates!" Suddenly the night watchman was in a commotion, and the person who was the leader just now suddenly turned pale, especially after seeing Gnar glaring at him.

As soon as the words fell, several fast horses appeared behind the carriage, and then slowly appeared in front of everyone under the light of the fire.

It was none other than Mick and his party.

"I said that anyone who leaves the city gate in this short period of time must be searched strictly! How dare you be so negligent!" After saying that, he immediately stepped forward and directly whipped the leader of the Night Watchman, and suddenly the thick cotton jacket cracked, and brought out countless cotton wool against the horsewhip, and then I saw that the raised horsewhip splashed a little blood stain.

As soon as he lifted the reins, Mick turned the horse around his crotch and looked up and down at the two carriages.

"Boss Naibao, why are you in such a hurry to get out of the city?"

"The other party was in a hurry to receive the goods, so I chose to go out at this time on this cold day. It's not easy for us to be the head of the Mike, and the lords have been advocating the development of commerce recently, so I guess the head of the Mike group will not stop it."

"Business is business, but whether it is related to business in your carriage is not necessarily. What if it's human trafficking?" Mick said.

"Don't make such a joke, adults," the middle-aged rich man looked serious.

"I'm not joking, how could Boss Naibao not know? Since Boss Naibao said that I was joking, it would be better to let us search these two carriages and let us know if it was right, wouldn't it? This is the best and fastest way to prove Boss Naibao's innocence. If I'm really wrong to blame Boss Naibao, I will definitely come to the door and apologize in person" Mike's words were also extremely firm, not like a joke.

"My boss is here in this carriage, he doesn't want to show his true face, Captain Mick shouldn't be strong."

"Lord Lord ordered me to search everywhere and find out the driving force behind today's central square within a time limit, and it is not easy for me, so Boss Naibao should not be strong. Besides, even if we see the true face of this boss, we will definitely not leak it to the public."

"You!" Boss Naibao looked indignant, and it seemed that he was really angry at Mike's unreasonableness. But I didn't know what the man heard in an instant, his face changed and he smiled, "Okay! Our boss also said that he would not ask Your Excellency to come to the door to apologize, but he must not leak the boss lineup."

"That's right," Mick laughed, "and you guys go and search the wagon behind you."

After speaking, he didn't care about the mood of the boss of Naibao at this time, and rode directly towards the carriage in front of him.

"Why is Captain Mick so embarrassed by a merchant?" and his familiar voice came from behind the curtain of the carriage, and Mick thought of someone.

The curtain was lifted, and it was the Duncan priest.

But Mick smelled blood, very light, but it was very familiar to him, especially when he saw blood all over the floor in the central square today.

Mick jumped off his horse and slammed into the carriage, startling the groom, and Duncan frowned slightly.

Regardless of Duncan's reaction, Mick lifted the curtain and entered the carriage.

This move made Duncan, Boss Nanaibao and others unaware of it, and by the time a few people reacted, Mick had already forced himself into the carriage.

'The smell of blood is stronger'

It was a spacious place, but Duncan was sitting at the front at this time. There was a charcoal fire inside the carriage, which was burning vigorously, dissipating all the cold air in the carriage.

"It's too cold outside the carriage, and when I see such a charcoal fire inside, I can't help but want to come in, Priest Duncan, I'm sorry" Although Mick said apologetically, he didn't behave in his demeanor.

As soon as he entered the carriage, Mick stared at the empty space of the carriage behind Duncan.

Duncan seemed a little uncomfortable with the extra person in the carriage, so he moved his position, but it just blocked Mick's view.

Mick looked down and looked at Duncan instead.

"This carriage is really luxurious, I didn't expect that Officer Duncan is still the behind-the-scenes boss of Naibao, and I hope that Officer Duncan can take care of it more in the future."

"What is the reason why Captain Mick came to my carriage?

Mick glanced at the vacancy in the carriage behind Duncan a few more times and said, "Officer Duncan is indeed the only one in this carriage."

"But," Mick said, staring into Duncan's eyes, "Officer Duncan should probably change the carriage, it seems to be a little unclean, some red stuff I don't know if it's dry paint or something else"

"Since Captain Mick didn't find what he was looking for, then please go back" Duncan didn't make any superfluous movements because of Mick's words, and he only wanted to ask Mick to leave.

"Since Priest Duncan doesn't welcome me so much, it looks like there should be something urgent and inconvenient to rush, so I won't bother" With that, Mick turned to leave.
