The men who came with the ship walked down the dock one by one, and the seamen vigorously moved a large box wrapped in copper skin off the gangplank. A man who looked like a captain briefly negotiated with the "Dock Emperor" before walking to the breakwater with a few retinues.

These men caught the attention of Garlic Nose, one of the beggars on the morning shift in the docks. He poked his companion in the ribs with his arm, then quietly pointed over there. This man with Garlic Nose has a special magical ability, even if there is a small pile of gem coins with a not-so-pure texture fifty paces away, his nerves will flutter for it.

There was something in the seamen, or rather their captains, that excited the nerves all over his body, and he kept sending the strongest signal to his brain: A windfall is just around the corner! Sure enough, the captain-like man took out his money bag, took out a few handsome gem coins from it, and kept playing with them in his hand.

Garlic's body trembled like a hazelnut branch that had detected a water source. He stabbed his companion again, telling him to hurry to the city center by taking a nearby path. He picked up the begging bowl and trotted all the way through the streets, with a flattering flattery on his face, "Hello, my lord, if there is anything I need to serve, I am the most reliable 'bag inquiry' in the city of soft maple." ”

Hearing his self-promotion, the captain's face showed a look of confusion at first, and then he opened a black pamphlet on his belt and flitted around it for a moment, and then he said, "You ——! waste."

"What?" this time it was Garlicnose's turn to look dazed.

"You consume," the man repeated, his voice unnecessarily multiplied, and carefully biting out every vowel and consonant.

"You can 'consume yourself' by yourself," Garlic Nose replied, scolding in a dark voice, and then turned to leave.

But there was a smile on the man's face, and a strong man stood up behind him, and he just walked up to Garlic Nose and stretched out his hand to grab him by the neck, and carried him back like a chicken. The captain opened his palm, revealing a large gem coin inside, larger than the largest gem coin Garlic Nose had ever seen in his life.

Although he had never seen the carved pattern on this gem coin, it was as if he heard this "baby" open in his head, and the language could not be clearer, "My current master needs help, and if you are willing and able to provide this help, then I can go with you, and it is better to have some fun together." ”

The beggar's garlic nose was put on the ground, and after listening to what "baby" said, his heart was much more steady. The richly dressed fellow, who looked like a captain, checked the pamphlet in his hand again. "I want to be taken to a hotel, inn, apartment, tavern, guest house, hostel......"

"Ahh ”

Garlicnose noticed that many people around him were watching them with interest, including many of his competitors. The thought that the "baby" might fly away from his hand with wings made him tremble with nervousness.

"No, even if Charlen, the thief in the city, takes all my treasures," he said, without considering the actual value of his treasures, "I'll have to keep this 'baby' with me, and that man has a big suitcase with maybe more 'treasures' in it." Even if I can't get them all, I'll get five, no, I want ten!"

The man ignored him, still looking down at the pamphlet in his hand, "I would be glad to be taken to a 'hotel,' which means 'a place to rest for a fee,' and 'inn,' which means ......."

"Okay, understood, follow me!" Garlic Nose interrupted the ill-written explanation, and he muttered in his heart, "Whatever, when you get to Charron's territory, you can have everything." ”

......

"Strange. Charron said.

"They got off a big boat with a big box with copper on it. The companion of the garlic nose added.

"Most of them are dealers, or agents of the gnomes," Charlen said to himself. He picked up the knife, tore a piece of meat from the pork cutlet in front of him, and threw it into the air, but before the meat touched the beam, a black shadow appeared from the dark corner of the roof, and viciously took the meat away.

"It's not a dealer, it's an agent for the injections. Charron muttered to himself, "I wish it was the latter." Twice as much money is earned from them. Under normal circumstances, ask him for a sum of money. Then give him to the rebels outside the city, and get an extra reward. What do you think, Mr. Wither?"

The second largest thief in Soft Maple City stood opposite Charron, his eyes half-closed and half-open, shrugging his shoulders but not making a sound. Who made him just the second biggest thief? Since the disappearance of Dalton, who is "the big guy among the big guys" and "broom eyebrows", Charlen has climbed from the original second position to the throne where the boss can sit.

There was a flapping of wings from the window, and Charron dragged his fat body out of his chair and walked to the window, bringing back a black crow. He untied a sealed letter from the neck of the ugly bird's feet, which was as obsessed as his master, and the crow flew to the dark corner of the roof to talk to his companion.

Wither didn't like them at all. Everyone knows that Charlen's ravens are loyal to their masters. Charron's current right-hand man, Wither, had also tried to get his hands on the boss's throne, but the crows had an eye taken away from him. He did not die, thanks to Charlen's "big" heart. The current boss is learning everything like Dalton used to be, so he won't ignore the abilities that the other party has because of who is ambitious.

"From Observation Point Twelve," Charlen said. He opened the letterbox, knocked out the small note inside, and unfolded it to look at it.

"It's the old cat," Wither said at once, "he's keeping an eye on him near the obelisk in the Temple of Courage today. ”

"He said that the temple was not moving, and well, the only remaining enforcers did not come out to patrol. This is definitely good news," Charron nodded, "Bartender, get your wine ready, our guests will arrive in a moment." You'll have to give a warm welcome to your new friends. ”

In the distance, near the bar, a tall bartender responded, "Those who can make a good deal for us are good friends." Those 'babies' have always been charming, and only men like us deserve them. ”

"Hahaha!"

Looking at Charlen's drastic mood, Wither said nothing. Being the assistant of the current No. 1 thief is like being used with an incense insole, slowly pumping to death all at once, which is really uncomfortable.
