Chapter 116: Windfall from the Sky
Fragrant leaves bar, corner location.
Erlan found a man in a coffee-colored jacket, patted the other party on the shoulder, and laughed:
"Why don't you drink Lie Langzi?"
The man was in his thirties, with a very popular face, but it was obvious that he was of Rune blood.
He had brown hair and brown eyes, the bridge of his nose was high, and his original drunken appearance suddenly disappeared, and his eyes suddenly became sharp.
He glanced at Erlan and Klein, and his eyes became cloudy again, as if they were full of wine:
"I've already drunk it, let's have a Zarha hangover. β
Zarha is a local specialty of malt beer, which is cheap and has a good flavor.
Hearing this, Erlan laughed twice, pointed at Klein and said:
"Gelman Sparrow. β
Then, he introduced Klein:
"Uss Kent, just call him Kent.
"You talk, I have to go back and prepare, and I'll leave the port tomorrow morning. β
He waved his hand and turned away without hesitation.
Klein pulled over the chair next to him, sat down, and looked at Uss Kent with a blank face.
Kent was extremely uncomfortable, and poured out Zarha:
"You can come to me for anything in the future, as long as you can provide valuable information or help us do something. β
He wasn't worried about the drunkards around him overhearing the conversation between the two, as many gangsters and pirate groups would say the same, and recruiting informants often spoke the same words.
"Good. Klein was tempted to ask if the cost of the costume for pretending to be Elaine to assassinate the sick lieutenant general would be reimbursed, even though it was Daniz's money.
But that's all he thought.
Uss Kent laughed drunkenly:
"I've heard some things about you in Erlan, but I still have to remind you that on the sea, you can't be so crazy, especially be careful, try not to provoke pirates, I mean don't confront them head-on, it's okay to give us information privately, we'll keep it secret for you. β
This time, he lowered his voice visibly.
Seeing that Gelman Sparrow did not respond, he added:
"Pirates won't talk to you about chivalry, and they won't obey the laws and rules of the kingdom, Hiccup, if you make your home in various port cities or island colonies, they will definitely do anything to attack your family. β
Family...... Klein was silent for a second, and said flatly:
"I don't have a family. β
"......," Uss Kent said, almost not knowing what to do, "and they're going to attack your friends." β
Then he heard Gelman Sparrow respond in an unwavering tone:
"I don't have any friends. β
...... Uss Kent suddenly felt choked, and subconsciously took a sip of Zarha beer before relieving himself.
He coughed twice and said in a low voice:
"They will also sneak up on you, they will also buy people, they will figure out your itinerary, they will intercept the ship you are on, and on the sea, the power of the individual is often small. β
Klein said quite calmly:
"I don't refuse money from people.
"It's courtesy. β
Sending money? Uth Kent was visibly stunned for a moment, not understanding what Gelman Sparrow meant.
It was only after a few seconds that he realized that the other party was using the pirates as a moving bounty.
He took a sip of beer, and then a sip of beer, and was speechless for a moment.
............
Fragrant Leaves Bar in the underground area.
"Strange adventurer?" "Clever Talker" Misool King perked up and sat up straight.
"Julius," Ozil nodded:
"According to 'Blue-Eyed' Meate, the adventurer was very faceless, probably not long after he had just been in the waters of the archipelago, but he felt quite dangerous. β
Quite dangerous? Could it be the one who teamed up with Daniz the "Flame" to kill the "Steel" Maiviti gang? Could it be the one who pretended to be Elaine and attacked the captain? Misool suddenly had a certain association in his mind, and asked in a deep voice:
"Is there a picture or portrait of him?"
Ozil beckoned to his subordinate and took a blank piece of paper from the other party:
"There's a ritual that makes Blue-Eyed Meath depict the strange adventurer, you know, to get a foothold in the underground world of Byam, it's not the same as being a successful pirate, you have to have support personnel, hey, I spent a lot of money to hire them. β
Misool understood the hidden meaning of the other party, and said with a chuckle:
"As long as this matter can be clarified, the captain will not be stingy with rewards. β
He took the portrait and unfolded it, and found that it was a grim man with black hair and brown eyes, a thin face, and sharp angles, wearing a long black double-breasted gown and a half-height silk top hat.
I haven't seen it, so I can't confirm if it's the person who is disguised as Elaine...... Misool raised his head and said:
"Find out who he is and where he is. β
"I have commanded them to do it. "Julius," Ozil said with a calm smile.
The two fell silent at the same time, each drinking South Will's red wine.
After a few minutes, a bar guard came in, breaking the silence.
He glanced at the "clever talker" Misoor, leaned into the ear of his boss, and whispered a few words.
Ozil's expression suddenly became rather strange, mixed with some smile that was hard to hide.
He put down the tall glass, paused, and said:
"Found the strange adventurer. β
"Where?" Misoll blurted out.
Ozil pointed upward:
"It's right in the bar. β
Misool looked up at the ceiling and said in silence for a few seconds:
"I'll go up and take a look, make sure. β
He thought that he had been in contact with the person who pretended to be the red-haired Elaine, and he had a general understanding of similar abilities, and thought that even if the other party could disguise again, he should have a certain sense of familiarity, so he decided to confirm it himself.
According to his original habit, he would not actually take the initiative to come forward like this, but first do a peripheral investigation, and only then cut into it with a lot of certainty, but this time he didn't trust Ozil's subordinates too much - if it was really someone who was disguised as Elaine, as soon as he noticed that something was wrong, he would immediately change his appearance, change his identity, and disappear.
Moreover, Misore knew that he was currently in a state of punishment by the captain, and that he had to make a quick contribution in order to return to the Black Death.
"Hey, whether it's a lack of ability or a lack of caution, the result can't be changed, so the pretender was deceived by the pretender, took 'her' to the Black Death, and almost killed the captain......
"If you were Ziringus, you wouldn't have forgiven me, heh, he's always been greedy, and he's been hungry for my extraordinary abilities for a long time......
"The captain did not assume that I had cooperated with the attackers and called others to surround me on the spot, just because Zielingus could also use the 'creeping hunger' to change his appearance, and he was forgiving enough to send me to Baiam to investigate the matter...... Compared to Ziringes, she is a captain who is truly worthy of allegiance, and I must make a meritorious contribution as soon as possible, and have an excuse to contact her and live up to her treatment. As Misool King got up and walked outside, his mind couldn't help but roll a little.
Although he is a pirate who has killed many people and robbed many ships, he also has a soft place in his heart, and he did not find that in his long-term relationship with the "Sick Lieutenant General" Tracy, he has been repeatedly seduced by the other party, and his good feelings have penetrated deep into the bone marrow, even if the "Sick Girl" has no helper, let him kneel on the ground and kiss his toes, he will not resist and do so.
Of course, this will not affect his inner fantasy of doing something inappropriate with Tracy, and if he has the opportunity, even if he does not have the captain's permission, he believes that he will take the initiative to do it.
As a pirate, he's done a lot of similar things.
Coming to the upper floor, Misool King followed the prompts of Ozil's men and walked around the bar wall for half a circle, and saw the strange adventurer sitting in the corner from a distance.
In line with portraiture...... But there is no familiarity...... Is it good enough for him to disguise himself, or is there someone else, such as Edwina "Iceberg"? It's not impossible that she can simulate the extraordinary abilities she's ever seen, and change like Zielingers...... Misore paused for two seconds before cautiously retracting it.
By this time, the soothsayer's spiritual instincts had told Klein that someone was watching him.
Klein didn't hide it, and immediately looked back and saw a man with short eyebrows, deep-set eye sockets, and tan eyes.
"The Clever Talker" Misool King...... "Lieutenant General of the Disease" third mate of the flagship Black Death...... Klein immediately recognized who was observing him.
Suddenly, two thoughts flashed through his mind at the same time.
One is: "Bounty of 5,400 pounds!"
The other is, "Why did he observe me? He started with Daniz and found me?"
Military liaison Uth Kent noticed Gelman Sparrow's anomaly and followed his line of sight, but was blocked by several drunkards due to the angle.
At this time, Crane had already instinctively had a countermeasure, which was to pretend not to recognize Misoor King, withdraw his gaze, ask for a drink, and secretly observe where the other party went, and then use the Faceling's ability to infiltrate Misoor's hideout and hunt the other party silently.
The thought flashed, and Klein suddenly found a problem:
"It's being myself.
"And now I'm Gelman Sparrow, a seemingly calm but crazy adventurer!"
In a flash of thought, he suddenly turned around, pulled out his revolver, and in the bustling bar, he aimed at the "clever talker" Misool King.
Bang!
A gunshot shook the entire bar, and many of the guests reflexively crouched down with their heads in their hands.
Many drunkards fell to the ground, and a dozen or so dodged on their sides or rolls, and their movements were extremely skillful, including Misool King.
However, Klein didn't actually pull the trigger because he was afraid of accidentally injuring the innocentβthere were many drinkers between him and Misoor.
That gunshot stemmed from his ability to create illusions!
At this moment, there was an open space in front of him, and people were falling down like straw, so he Shi Ran aimed at Misoor, who had just landed on his side, and really pulled the trigger.
Bang!
