Kind people are easy to be bullied in the East Side, and it is even less likely that there will be kind people among the gang members in the East Side.

So when Hobert and Hugh saw Darkholm's kind smiling face, they knew that the guy's smiling face was a disguise.

Hobert said to Duckholm: "If you can show us to meet Zachary, I can make a promise that he will never influence you to be the boss of the cuckoo bar in the future, and I believe this is the best price." ”

Darkholm shook his head and bargained with a grin: "Honorable sir, I am a very loyal person to Boss Zachary, and I will only betray him when I see the actual benefits." ”

Hobert twitched the corners of his mouth, gotta add money?

He said, "Okay, okay, how about 2 pounds?" ”

"Ten pounds!"

Hobart laughed: "Zachary's life is not worth so much money, 3 pounds!" ”

"Honorable sir, as a gentleman, you should not argue with a lowly person like me over such a small amount of money. 8 pounds, no less, if it is less, my conscience will hurt. ”

"Who told you I was a gentleman? You're a gentleman, your whole family is a gentleman! 5 pounds, no more than a penny. This time it was all his own money, and Hobart was nowhere near as happy as he had been when he had spent the firm's public money.

Hugh looked at Hobert, who was bargaining with Darkholm regardless of his demeanor, hadn't he heard that lawyers were rich? Why does this lawyer seem to be very poor?

Then it occurred to her that she was also saving up for the potion recipe for Sequence 8 "Sheriff"? It seems that poverty is a common problem of the "wild extraordinary".

While Hugh was lamenting, Hobert and Duckholm negotiated amicably, and Zachry's hideout was finally closed for £5 and 10 sules, and after seeing Zachary himself, he paid immediately.

A layer of sweat broke out on Duckholm's face: "I have never seen such a good bargaining gentleman of yours, sir, I have a small request, you can not pay me a commission immediately, but please let me take a look at your wallet to prove that you are capable of paying the commission." ”

Hobert took out a 5-pound and a 1-pound note a little impatiently: "Hurry up, it's going to be dark if you keep grinding any longer." ”

"As you wish," Darkholm's kind smile reappeared on his face after seeing the money, "Please follow me." ”

He was in front of him to introduce Hobart and Hugh to the streets and features of the East Side, and at the same time, he humbly led the way in front.

After walking for a few minutes, Darkholm led the two men to a small circular courtyard.

When they saw Duckholm, they threw down their laundry, or the half-pasted matchbox, and trotted all the way back to the house, closing the doors and windows.

Duckholm's expression changed, and he said coldly: "Come in!" ”

More than a dozen scoundrels appeared outside the courtyard gate, blocking the courtyard gate tightly.

This courtyard is special, the courtyard wall is very high, and there is only one exit, as if it provides a good place for these scoundrels to extort money.

They either looked back and forth at Hugh with a wicked grin, or stared at Hobart viciously, as if trying to scare each other with their eyes.

Darkholm smiled and said to Hobert: "Sorry sir, I hope to get more commissions, I don't want to be rude to you or this young lady, please hand over all your money and finances yourself, and then please leave this decent trench coat and fine shirt and leather wallet on you, in order to ensure your decency, we will leave you a pair of trousers." ”

Hobert immediately understood that Darkholm probably didn't know anything about Zachary, and that he had just betrayed Zachary just to make sure he had any cash worth plundering.

Because he haggled with him, he suspected that he might be a poor ghost, so he also made a special determination of his wallet.

If it were an ordinary person, this time it would definitely be a heel, but Hobert and Hugh were not panicked.

Hobert handed Hugh the cane: "Miss 'Arbiter', I think you need a weapon that is worth it. ”

Hugh took the cane: "What about you?" ”

Hobert took out the revolver from the pouch: "Although my marksmanship is not very good, but at such a close distance, six bullets should be able to finish two or three enemies, please buy me time to change bullets." ”

When Hobart pulled out his pistol, Darkholm's subordinates visibly panicked.

As gangsters, they also have pistols, but they don't carry them with them, because they don't have a "gun certificate", and going to the street with guns in broad daylight is equivalent to giving money to the police.

The point is that Darkholm didn't expect Hobart to have a pistol at all, this is Beckland, and the more rich people gather, the better the security. Moreover, the "gun qualification certificate" is not very easy to handle. In the middle-class districts of Jowood and St. George's, there are very few people with guns in their hands.

Queens and the West End are mostly rich and noble, and they generally have "gun certificates", but it is impossible for nobles or wealthy people to come to the East End.

For Darkholm, the "prey" has a gun in his hand, and it is definitely a "black swan event".

"He only has one gun!" Duckholm quickly reacted: "He has dozens of pounds in cash, which is worth more than your life!" Rush up and grab the gun! ”

Boom~

Hobart fired a shot, the bullet flew through the scoundrels' hair, and nailed to the wall: "This shot is just a warning, the next shot is going to be aimed at your head!" ”

A layer of cold sweat had broken out in his palms, and he was still a little nervous when he shot at a living person for the first time.

Fortunately, the fighting spirit of the scoundrels was completely shattered by this shot, and they rushed out of the courtyard gate, only hating their parents for missing two legs.

Duckholm followed, but Hugh stepped forward with his cane in hand, aimed at Duckholm's back, and knocked him to the ground.

The "Arbiter" path has excellent fighting ability in sequence 9, while the "lawyer" sequence 9 only has a strengthened lip.

Hobart also stepped forward quickly, pointed a pistol at Duckholm, and his heart suddenly moved: "Mr. Duckholm, everything that happened just now is evidence of your extortion, I file a lawsuit against the 'arbitrator' Miss Hugh, according to the relevant regulations of the Criminal Law, you will face two to five years in prison." If you have any objections, you can ask a lawyer to communicate with me. ”

Darkholm, who was sitting on the ground with his hands raised, was a little dumbfounded: "Ah, ah? ”

Hugh also looked at Hobart with a strange expression, wondering what this kid was doing?

Hobart continued: "In view of the many inoperable nature of the punishment procedure against Duckholm, I suggest that it be done simply and break one of Duckholm's legs. Miss 'Arbitrator', please do the final arbitration. ”

Hugh also thought that this was Hobert's method of coercing confessions: "My arbitration is: your punishment plan is very precise, and it will be implemented immediately!" ”

Hobert took a deep breath in intoxication, feeling for the first time the potion show signs of loosening.
