Two more days later, Ian finally approached the outskirts of Albana.

When we got here, the sight of yellow sand all over the sky was no longer visible. Instead, there was a scene that gradually became prosperous.

Although Alabasta is experiencing continuous drought, there has always been sufficient rainfall near the capital Albana. The city was originally built on an oasis, so it is still green today. You can often see it even if you have not entered the city. The lush trees and jungles were really a relief for Ian, because he was tired of looking at the sand all over the sky these days.

"B! B!"

Camel BB also seemed very excited. Ian rode it forward and felt that this guy's steps were much lighter.

Ian allowed this guy to run forward on his own, while he put his hand in front of his eyebrow and looked forward.

The city is already far away, visible from this position, but Ian should still be on the outskirts of the city now, and it feels like there are still very few people.

However, at this moment, Ian was suddenly startled, because he saw a small building not far ahead, and the building seemed to have a signboard, and it looked like some kind of store.

Opening a store in this remote suburb, is this like getting kicked in the head? It’s amazing to have business!

"Man, let's go take a look!" Ian patted BB's hump and said.

BB nodded happily and ran straight towards the building.

Having said that, Ian discovered that there are many animals on Shengting Island with high intelligence. The camel BB he bought is not a special case. When he was in the desert two days ago, Ian also encountered a group of animals. There were moving crabs walking sideways in the desert. When Ian was stunned to see them whizzing past in front of him, one of the moving crabs in the team actually grinned at Ian!

Ian can swear to God, that moving crab is really smiling! He was definitely not wrong!

Moreover, in the country of Alabasta, you can see statues of three animals everywhere. One is the sea cat, which looks cute. It is said that this creature is a very sacred existence in Alabasta. They can often be seen among them, and the people of Alabasta also regard sea cats as their patron saints.

There are two other statues of patron saints, one is a jackal, and the other is a falcon. Together with the sea cat, these three animals are the most common animal statues in Alabasta.

When it comes to the desert, many people probably have the impression of desolation. Ian was the same way before, but it wasn't until he landed on Shengting Island that he discovered that it was completely different from what he imagined. The strange animals in this desert, But there are many of them, and most of them are very spiritual and intelligent, which makes Ian always wonder whether the animals on this island have mutated.

While thinking this, Ian had already arrived in front of this building.

This so-called building is actually a large-looking house. Around the house, in addition to sparse grass, there is a wooden shelf, and on the top of the shelf, there is a water tower.

Water towers are a common water storage device in desert areas, so Ian doesn't find it strange. What really surprises him is that this room is actually a well-decorated and delicious coffee shop!

At the front of the room are four X-shaped pillars, behind which is a row of brown glass. At the top of the entire coffee bar room is a long signboard.

"Spider Cafe?" Ian raised his head and read the name of this place, and then felt a familiar feeling.

A coffee shop actually appeared in this wilderness. Ian also found it quite novel, so he stopped outside the coffee bar.

After falling off BB's back, Ian faintly heard a burst of melodious music coming from the coffee bar. He couldn't help but feel moved, so he pulled BB's reins and walked over.

"Man, you stay outside first and don't run around!" Ian told BB.

BB seemed to understand what Ian said and actually nodded.

As a result, as soon as Ian opened the door of the coffee bar, the BB outside ran away in a hurry!

"I'll choke you!" Ian turned around and watched BB run away happily, feeling dumbfounded for a while.

& nb

sp;"Giggle!" A burst of laughter came from the coffee bar, saying: "Don't worry, that little guy may have ran away to the city. The animals in this country are all so unique. If you are destined, You may encounter it in Albana City."

Ian looked at the direction in which BB was leaving. Sure enough, he was running in the direction of Albana: Could it be that he couldn't wait for himself and wanted to go to the city to have fun first? ?

Unable to complain, Ian had to look back at the coffee shop. He saw that there was not a single customer in the huge coffee shop, but every table had been wiped clean, and behind the bar, a man with a flower wrapped on his head A fashionable girl wearing a cloth headscarf, a pair of black-rimmed glasses, and a strand of wavy hair hanging on her forehead was sitting with her legs crossed and reading a newspaper. Next to her, an ancient gramophone was playing soft music. A little further over, there was a pot of water boiling on the stove.

The person who laughed just now was the fashionable girl reading the newspaper. After seeing Ian walk in, she put down the newspaper, lowered the glasses frame on the bridge of her nose, and said to Ian: "Guest, do you want something?"

"Of course!" Ian nodded. He was the only customer in the cafe. It was hard for him to find a table by himself, so he came to the bar and sat down and said, "I want iced coffee, is that okay?"

The fashionable girl nodded without saying a word. She stood up and took out a cup, put a few ice cubes in the cup, poured coffee into the cup, and brought it to Ian.

After placing the coffee in front of Ian, the fashionable girl lay on the counter, looked at Ian with her chin clenched, and said, "I am Paula, the boss here. Are you traveling alone? Are you going to Albana?"

Paula! ? When Ian heard the name, he was stunned for a moment, and then he recalled the name of this cafe, and he suddenly remembered it!

This... this Spider Cafe seems to be the base of Baroque Studio!

Ian carefully looked at the sexy-looking Bola girl in front of him. He did not expect that he would meet a senior executive of the Baroque Studio here.

Pola, the partner of Mr. 1 in Baroque Studio, nicknamed "Two Fingers"! In fact, the meaning here should be January 1st, New Year's Day, because if you use your fingers to point out this date, it will happen to be two fingers, so you have this nickname. This lady, her real code name should be "Miss·New Year's Day" Festival" is right.

This is the unique code name of Crocodile's Baroque Studio. As a secret criminal company, Baroque Studio is engaged in the bounty hunter business. It feels like a bounty hunter guild, but the company The real boss behind the scenes, but no one knows it. The senior cadres of the studio all call each other by code names, usually a combination of a man and a woman. The man is coded by Mr + number, and the woman is called Miss + holiday. Make a code name, and the higher the serial number is, the more powerful it is.

In fact, judging from the organizational structure of Baroque Studio, Crocodile is really a talent. This organizational structure is actually quite strict, and although these senior cadres don't even know who their boss is, they still Very loyal to the organization.

However, there is a saying that... time-travelers are all idiots! This is the situation of Ian.

Even Miss New Year's Day doesn't know who her boss is, but Ian does!

Ian's original idea was to go directly to Albana and find the Rainland. In his impression, Crocodile's casino was opened here. Nico Robin served as his deputy and served as deputy director of the Baroque Studio. For the position of president, as long as you find Crocodile, you can find Nico Robin.

However, after meeting Miss New Year's Day by chance, Ian also realized that the Baroque Studio was now active in Alabasta.

Pola opened a coffee bar in this place, which should be used as a contact point. So, other senior cadres of Baroque Studio should also appear here?

"Brother, why don't you say anything?" Pola noticed that Ian was looking a little distracted, so she smiled charmingly, stretched out her fingers to gently lift Ian's chin, and exhaled with a breathy giggle: "Let's talk , Little brother, are you fascinated by me?"

Paula does look very beautiful. If she is really just a coffee bar proprietress, Ian wouldn't mind chatting with her casually. But for Ian who knows her identity, it is another matter. .

So, Ian shrank back a little, got rid of her fingers, then pointed at her chest and said: "Beauty, your cushion fell out!"
