Chapter 47: The Sewers
"I don't know how many kings there are in Naranst, I only know that I count as one. β
- Vito Currie
"Give, take. Justin's hand came out from under his cloak and handed Jack's sword, which he had forgotten to take as he had gone home in a hurry today. The swords of the two of them were usually kept in the storage area at the entrance of the academy.
"And yours, just bought for you. As he spoke, he handed John another long sword, and John quickly caught it with both hands, it was a brand new long sword, and the cypress scabbard was covered with black shiny buffalo skin.
"But the academy won't let you use the sword outside. As a result, John of the sword said a little embarrassed, but he was very skilled in sticking the sword into his belt, and the Northridge boy didn't know how to use a sword, but because the college didn't allow him to use his own sword, and he lived in the dormitory, he basically didn't take out his sword in the storage place, and Justin thought he didn't have a sword.
Watching Justin flip the edge of his cloak and expose the two swords he hung from his waist on one side, both swordsmen seemed to have this problem, sometimes hanging the two swords on each side, sometimes on one side, sometimes cross-shouldered on their backs, sometimes side by side.
"Who are you going to scare to death?" Jack looked at Justin with some amusement, looking at him with two long fangs in his mouth, "And why are you wearing this thing." β
Justin's face hidden in the hood of his cloak was not exposed at all, and his head was slightly bowed, and he could only see a pitch black, which looked very mysterious. Although they couldn't see Justin's face, from the movements and general direction of the Twisting Head King Alley, Jack and the others probably understood what Justin meant.
Looking in the direction of Justin's face, several people gasped.
I have never seen such a gloomy alley, at least in Luolan City, the alley in the daytime is obviously not capped, but it is as dark as the night, the long section of the entrance except for the brick and stone wall accidentally has no window or door, you can only look at the distance can see some people in the distance of the alley, and the innermost part of the alley is simply as dark as a ghost, it is incredible.
". Jack couldn't help but curse and continued, "I said Justin, this is scary enough, why are you still carrying this thing?"
Justin glanced back at Jack, although he could only see the darkness in the hood, but Jack could feel a large roll of his eyes, Justin seemed to hesitate, and reached out to pull his hood open.
"Look, look, look. Justin said helplessly, and then waited for Jack's laughter.
Jack really smiled, even Tiger and John couldn't help laughing, and sure enough, after the hood was removed, all the mystery, stability and other feelings were gone, except for the handsome, which was a big two hundred and five, and now this two hundred and five hair has turned into a bright bright red, which is better than Edward and Vivian's.
Justin rolled his eyes as several people laughed, and finally Jack finally held back a laugh and asked, "Vivien?"
"Vivien and Vice Dean Edward!" Justin said angrily, "These two are beasts!
"What would Vice Dean Edward do?" asked Jack, surprised.
He didn't do anything. Justin pouted, "That guy stared at me with a cigarette in his mouth, so I didn't dare to resist." β
"It's not like you. Jack was a little surprised that this guy wouldn't resist.
"Alright, alright. Justin didn't want to continue the conversation, he couldn't talk to Jack about the throne of the Silvermoon Kingdom in public: "Let's get to Vito quickly." β
The four of them, who were in a much lighter mood, walked deeper into Tyrone Alley, and they all frowned at the stench wafting from the alley. The sun is no longer shining, and the further you go, the darker it becomes. From time to time on the side of the road sat a ragged and unkempt man sitting against the wall, sitting motionless and not knowing whether he was dead or alive.
The further you go inside, you can see people walking around, and instead of the entrance, which is the faΓ§ade of the splendid buildings outside, there are low, dilapidated masonry houses and haphazardly built shacks of timber shelves. This is the dark side of the city, in fact, most of the other streets are like this, the slightly larger roads are more decent, and the alleys are slums, but it seems to be especially serious here.
Everyone seemed to be afraid of Jack and his party, and even though Vincent had put his hood back on before entering the alley, everyone's eyes were still on them.
"Well, excuse me. Before Jack could finish speaking, the woman ran away with her head down, and Jack, the aunt who had no appearance at all, did not know what she was hiding.
He was about to ask another bald man who came over, but before he could say anything, the man clasped his hand and walked away. However, Tiger behind Jack grabbed him by the collar.
Tiger tugged at the man's collar and pushed the man against the wall, holding the man's collar like a chicken, and the man looked up at Teggs in horror.
"Vito. Teggs asked, "Where is Vito Curry's house?" β
"Ahh
Teggs let go of the man, and the man hunched over like a mouse escaping from a cat's mouth. Teggs looked at Jack and said, "His tongue has been cut out." When the man opened his mouth just now, Tigers saw it.
Everyone was a little uncomfortable with this dark place, and they were at a loss. It occurred to Jack that Vito had said that his mother was a maid and his father was a groom, and that although he was poor, he wouldn't live here, would he? Before Jack could think about it, Justin patted Jack on the shoulder.
Jack looked at Justin and saw that he was peering through a door. Inside the door it seemed to be a tavern, and this kind of place with a counter and a few tables was almost immediately apparent. A bald man with a wrapping mustache, a tall, fat figure and a teardrop-shaped totem tattoo on the back of his head are very eye-catching.
Most importantly, he was holding a blue gold-rimmed shield badge in his hand, which was the coat of arms of the Rhine Institute.
Several people looked at each other, mainly at Tegus, this kind of thing should still be listened to by experienced people. Teggs also frowned at the bald man at this moment, his lips squirmed slightly, and said, "Sewer." β
