Draw the Poké Ball at the start

"No, no, I wouldn't be dissatisfied. You really wronged me."

Qi Kaidong was still thinking about how to explain it, but he kept denying it.

He was afraid that Captain Wu would find an excuse to attack the caravan.

"Oh, is it so?

Then please explain to me, what do you mean by what you just said? "

Captain Wu looked at Qi Kaidong pitifully and called the longhorned lion behind him.

If Qi Kaidong's explanation is unreasonable, he will take action.

The long-horned lion seemed to understand the meaning of his pet master very well. He opened his mouth slightly, revealing a mouthful of sharp teeth.

There were constant low growls coming from its throat, and its front paws were pawing back and forth, as if it was eager to try.

Seeing this, Qi Kaidong's heart skipped a beat and he groaned secretly.

In order to spend the night safely, he finally persuaded Zhang Shaoyang and the others not to conflict with the night watchmen.

I thought that after I had taken care of them, I would be fine if I gave them the night watch fee tonight.

I didn't expect that I wouldn't be able to escape this disaster in the end.

If I had known this was the case, I might as well have taken action directly against the man named Wu.

There is no need to speak in a low voice and say things that go against one's will.

After thinking about it, Qi Kaidong suddenly felt his heart change and wanted to give it a try.

Let Zhang Shaoyang keep all these people.

Then the caravan changed its route and did not go to the town for now.

Go back and hide for a few days, and wait until the storm has passed before coming back.

In this case, it would be difficult for the Night Watch Alliance to discover that they were the murderers.

However, Qi Kaidong did think so in his heart, but his words changed.

"Captain Wu, I think the wind is a bit strong tonight, so you heard wrong just now.

I said 'no need', not the 'you dare' you said.

I am very grateful to your Night Watchmen Alliance, how could I say such bastard words..."

Having said this, Qi Kaidong showed a grateful expression.

After a pause, he looked at Captain Wu and found that he had no intention of speaking, so he continued:

"Captain Wu, you don't know. After listening to your words, I wanted to thank you on behalf of Lao Zhou and Lao Huang.

With you here, their families will definitely be able to survive well.

But then I thought about it, it’s not easy for you night watchers either.

We have to enter the mountains during the day and protect our caravans at night.

Wouldn't it be a waste of energy to take care of orphans and widows?

It's not worth it to waste energy on ordinary people.

But I am different. I am just a businessman with lots of energy.

And based on my relationship with Lao Zhou and Lao Huang, helping them take care of their families is worthy of being a friend.

More people means more mouths to eat, and my little caravan still has this ability.

Therefore, I’d better spare you the help of the Night Watchmen Alliance. "

After saying these words, Qi Kaidong felt guilty and did not dare to look at Captain Wu again.

I kept praying in my heart that Wu could quickly turn this page.

But after waiting for a long time, he didn't hear Captain Wu make a sound.

Feeling confused, he secretly turned his head and glanced at Captain Wu.

Good to death happened to meet Captain Wu's eyes.

He was so frightened that he quickly looked away to prevent Captain Wu from seeing his little thoughts.

Although Captain Wu looks tall and strong, he has the most delicate mind and the deepest mind in the entire Night Watchmen Alliance.

Before the Night Watchmen Alliance was established, his viciousness and calculating skills had spread among the circle of pet masters on the outskirts of the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountains.

Many pet masters who were stronger than him had suffered at his hands.

But he is still alive and well.

This alone makes it especially clear that he is meticulous in his work and cannot easily offend or deceive.

Just when Qi Kaidong looked away anxiously, Captain Wu spoke:

"After all, I heard it right, you know it, and I know it too.

But as you said, I have a lot of money, so I am not as knowledgeable as you. "

With that said, he let the longhorn lion return to its previous position.

"As for Lao Huang and Lao Zhou, this is not something that I, a little captain, can decide.

I say this, can you understand? "

Qi Kaidong nodded hurriedly and said with an apologetic smile:

"I understand, I understand.

I just want to ask Captain Wu to help deliver a message to the alliance.

I'm doing this for everyone's benefit, right? "

"Um."

Captain Wu agreed without comment, then changed his tone and said:

"Let's not say much else. Since I'm here, you don't need to remind me what to do."

"I know, I know."

Qi Kaidong smiled apologetically, took out a small cloth bag from his chest, and handed it over.

The bag contained gold coins, of course.

He had prepared this money a long time ago to avoid the embarrassment of counting money on the spot.

Captain Wu took the small bag, opened it without ceremony, and counted it.

Suddenly, his face darkened and he said:

"Isn't this the right number?"

Qi Kaidong, who just wanted to settle the matter quickly, was stunned for a few seconds when he heard this, and then said cautiously:

"Probably not, I counted the money in advance and put it in.

I haven't moved it since then, so how could it be missing?

Why don't you, Captain Wu, please order more? "

Captain Wu said nothing, tied the small bag again and then said:

"No need to order, the number is indeed the same as before.

However, you also saw..."

He raised his chin slightly and motioned Qi Kaidong to look at the dozens of injured royal pets.

"Tonight those royal pets who ran away from the mountains appeared again.

It took a lot of effort to drive them away.

In the past, this amount of money would have been enough.

Not today.

Another one, have you forgotten something? "

Qi Kaidong took his eyes away from the injured royal pets and thought about it.

There should be nothing missing, he said doubtfully:

"What's up?"

"Lao Qi, I just praised you for being smart, why are you pretending to be stupid for me now?"

Captain Wu glanced at Qi Kaidong with a smile on his face and turned his attention to the last cart of the caravan.

“The night patrol fee is calculated based on head count, not a fixed amount.

If you have three more people, the money will naturally increase accordingly.

Otherwise, if several caravans come together, should we only charge one caravan? "

If you think about it carefully, there is some truth to this statement.

The Night Watch Alliance is not a charity organization, and people will not take advantage of these loopholes.

"Then... how much is left?" Qi Kaidong hesitated and said.

If the difference is close, he will make up for it from his own pocket.

As long as tonight can pass safely, it will be worth it.

Captain Wu did not answer directly, but threw the small bag to a night watchman not far from him and said:

"Ali, let Lao Qi calculate how much is missing."

The man named Ali caught the small bag, opened it, took a casual look, and said loudly:

"Report to the captain, there is still a hundred gold coins left."

"What, one hundred gold coins!"

Qi Kaidong was startled.

His bag only contained twenty gold coins in total, even if it was true as Captain Wu said.

The night watch fee is calculated per person, so there shouldn't be a hundred gold coins left.

Seeing Qi Kaidong's shocked expression, Captain Wu's lips curved into a sneer.

Immediately he quickly restrained himself and said to Ali:

"It seems that Lao Qi doesn't know how the money was collected. Please explain it to him."
