Chapter 21 Earth Mouse
Sitting next to the booth was an unattractive middle-aged man.
This man was thin and thin, with two long thin mustaches, and a pair of small eyes that shone brightly, making him look like an old fritter.

According to Hu Fenglin, he is a "connector" at the Langtou Bar, surnamed Su, nicknamed "Mouse", who is responsible for connecting the two parties and earning high commissions.

Hu Fenglin's family conditions are average, and he spent a lot of money in the Martial Arts Academy. In the past few years, in order to make money, he has dealt with gophers a few times, and he can barely be regarded as a half acquaintance, so when he saw him just now, he hurried over and pulled him over.

"These two are my companions. They have something to do and want to inquire about it."

After Hu Fenglin introduced the two parties, he got straight to the point, straight to the point.

"You know the rules."

The field mouse is obviously used to Hu Fenglin's style, squinting his small eyes, speaking in a calm and unhurried manner.

"In this world, everything has a price. Whether it is to accept a task or to inquire about news, as far as I am concerned, it has always been done with money, and I have never said it is free."

"Of course I can't let you go empty-handed." Hu Fenglin knocked on the table twice and said, "Can you still trust me, old rules."

"Acquaintances are the price of acquaintances, and strangers are the price of strangers."

The ground mouse chuckled, and was about to continue talking when Ye Lan raised his hand suddenly, and a black object slid along the table in front of the ground mouse.

"Is this enough?" Ye Lan raised her chin and lowered her voice slightly.

"Enough, enough." The ground mouse grabbed the black object, his eyes narrowed, and his smile became a little more sincere.

Both of them moved very fast, and the surrounding light was dim. Zhao Dong could only see the rough outline of the thing. It was a black disc with numbers on it, like a number plate. He couldn't help but wonder what it was for a while. It was so easy to kill the obviously difficult field mice.

Compared to Zhao Dong who has no experience in the world, Hu Fenglin is not a novice who knows nothing.

The black disc is actually a chip on the gaming table. This kind of chip is exclusively used in underground casinos in the black market and can be directly exchanged for cash. Therefore, in the black market, it is also equivalent to a currency in circulation. It is not only easy to carry, but also Leaving any traces is a common transaction method among veterans in the rivers and lakes.

As for the chip that Ye Lan took out, the number on it seemed to be 5, and it was black again, so it was [-], which was at least ten times the usual information fee.

Looking at the happy field mouse, Hu Fenglin secretly lamented that he really has good eyesight, and Ye Lan is really rich and beautiful, while looking at Zhao Dong, he couldn't help feeling a little bit envious.

There is a saying that "the blessed don't need to be busy, and the unlucky ones run away".

This kid looks dumbfounded, far worse than him, but he has such a powerful confidante, what a fool.

Zhao Dong naturally didn't know what Hu Fenglin was thinking, of course he knew, and he didn't pay attention to it now.

At this time, the ground mouse had already put away the chips in his hand, and said to Ye Lan and Zhao Dong with a smile on his face: "I don't know, what news do you want to inquire about?"

He has been in the black market for a long time, and has been in this business for 20 years. He is best at reading people's eyes and trying to figure out their thoughts. With a glance, he can see the relationship between the three of them.

Hu Fenglin is just a matchmaker today. Leaving aside, the remaining two people, a man and a woman, are obviously headed by the man. At least this generous little girl is definitely not the protagonist.

"I want to know who took this task, what is the content of the task, and who entrusted it."

Zhao Dong took out the badge he picked up, and put it on the table casually, saying calmly.

His current appearance is that of a seasoned veteran. Naturally, he must try to appear inscrutable, so that he fits the personality, and Zhao Dong also knows that in this kind of situation, talking too much will only make him feel timid. It is better to say less or not at all. , and make the other party confused.

The ground mouse picked up the badge, first looked carefully, then looked up at Zhao Dong, smiled and said: "Coincidental."

Zhao Dong raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard the words, Ye Lan and Hu Fenglin couldn't help leaning slightly, and their eyes fell on the ground mouse.

"You two are generous enough, so I won't hide it." The ground mouse put down the badge and said happily, "This is exactly what I handled. The person who took the task was a middle-aged man, and his surname should be Zhao. I can tell you the specific name." I don’t know. The task is simple, that is, go to Luluo Forest and hunt down a mutant pig-headed beast.”

Having said that, the ground mouse roughly described the appearance of the middle-aged man, and then continued.

"As for the situation of the entrusting person, I don't know."

Seeing Zhao Dong frowned slightly, the ground mouse hurriedly said: "It's not that I don't say it, you should also know the rules. In this kind of place, no matter which side of the mission, what you need is to keep a low profile and avoid people's eyes, otherwise you will go directly to It’s fine if the hunter union releases the task, the fee is low and you can earn points, right?”

Zhao Dong naturally understood what the ground mouse said, but it was a matter of his father's life and death. This might be the only clue to find his father's whereabouts, so he couldn't easily miss it.

And he didn't have to think about it at all, he could be sure that the gopher was definitely not telling the truth.

"What should I do to make this old fried dough stick loose?"

When Zhao Dong was trying to think of a way, the system in his brain suddenly reminded him: "This person is lying."

"I also know that he doesn't have the truth in his mouth." Zhao Dong was helpless, because he couldn't think of a way for a while.

If a person like the ground mouse makes up his mind not to tell the truth, even if he pries his mouth open with a knife, he probably won't be able to tell the truth.

If you spend money on it, there is a glimmer of hope, but firstly, he has no money, and secondly, Ye Lan can't let Ye Lan spend any more money.

Although he didn't know what the black disc was, he could guess a thing or two by looking at the gopher's reaction. Counting this time, he had lost count of how many favors he owed Ye Lan. He didn't know in the future. Even if I sell it myself, I can't afford it.

"Sure enough, I still don't practice much." Zhao Dong glanced at the mouse with a gloomy gaze, "If it's not me sitting here today, but Yang Zhan or that gloomy man, I don't need to say anything, just look at the mouse With two eyes, he can tell the truth."

I don't know whether Zhao Dong's expression is too cold, or his body is a little stiff after sitting for a long time. When the ground mouse saw Zhao Dong looking at him, he moved his body unconsciously, looking a little uncomfortable.

Zhao Dong's heart moved, and a vague thought arose.

After carefully recalling the brief scene of the previous confrontation with the gloomy man, as well as the look and tone of the other party's words, Zhao Dong felt that this method was more feasible.

"When I do things with money, I follow your rules."

Zhao Dong tilted his head slightly, imitating the expression of the sinister man when he spoke, his eyes were slightly lowered, and he did not look at the gopher. His tone was calm and nonchalant, "Now, you are the one who doesn't follow the rules, so don't blame me for being careless. "
