The drinkers sitting around the tables with their ears on their ears burst out laughing, and some even began to whistle.

Bai Ye ignored these guys, but said expressionlessly:

"Give me a glass of milk, thank you."

"as you wish."

A smile appeared on the corner of the middle-aged man's mouth again, even though Bai Ye's request was very strange, but he was still as elegant and gentleman as a butler of a Victorian classical aristocrat, he took out his white gloves and took out a cup to catch the milk.

"Hahaha--"

"Come to the bar for milk, girl, are you kidding me?"

The drinkers on the side laughed even more happily, and said some unsavory words.

Bai Ye's eyes became a little unfriendly, although he looks like a girl, but he doesn't like being treated like this - I bet, if you smile and call Bai Ye little girl, he will definitely swing his thin arms and put Your arm thicker than his thigh breaks.

"Guest, here is the milk you asked for."

While Bai Ye was thinking about how to teach the guy who yelled the most, the middle-aged man who had never been named brought a glass of milk.

"Thank you." Bai Ye let out a long sigh of relief, and then took the milk.

"Here's the order list."

The middle-aged man pulled out another screen, on which was a long list of tasks.

Bai Ye first took out the holy emblem and released a magic spell of "detect poison", then raised his cup and took a sip.

"Well--"

Then the young man narrowed his eyes in satisfaction. It has to be said that the milk provided by the middle-aged man is extremely delicious. It is not only fragrant and mellow, but also has a suitable temperature, which makes Bai Ye enjoy it very much.

That's right, Bai Ye prefers drinking milk over drinking Bai Ye, which has a lot to do with his past "sickness" attribute.

While enjoying the milk, Bai Ye browsed the list, pointed to one of the commissions after thinking repeatedly and said:

"This commission, can I continue?"

The middle-aged man glanced sideways and nodded:

"Of course, but are you sure you want to accept it? You must know that if the mission fails, you need to pay a huge amount of liquidated damages."

There is no so-called level division for bounty hunters, and there is no classification for tasks. Of course, a newly registered bounty hunter can accept the commission of hunting subsonic source stone worms.

However, in order to prevent bounty hunters from accepting entrustments indiscriminately, each task entrustment failure bounty hunter needs to pay the liquidated damages set by the entrusting party.This mechanism effectively prevents a large number of hot-headed newcomers from wrestling with subsonic origin stone bugs.

Bai Ye drank the milk in the cup in one gulp, then nodded:

"Yes, I want to accept this commission."

The middle-aged man sighed, took out the instrument and signaled Bai Ye to take out the card and scanned it.Then he turned around and found a file bag from the rows of cabinets and handed it to Bai Ye.

"You have a week to complete this commission, good luck to you, little girl who likes to drink milk."

Bai Ye's eyes became kinder, but for the sake of milk, he decided to let the middle-aged man go.

After taking back the card and portfolio, Bai Ye turned around and left the Prancing Horse Tavern, but when he opened the door of the tavern, his lips trembled a few times.

At the same time, a soft whisper came from the ear of the middle-aged man:

"Thank you for the milk, and, I'm a boy."

The middle-aged man raised his head in surprise, but found that there was no one in front of him, and even the whispers in his ears seemed to be hallucinations.

With a slight smile, he took off his glasses and began to wipe them, muttering to himself:

"I missed it this time."

The last thing Bai Ye used was the priest's magic called "thaumaturgy", which was similar to the arcane trick in the caster's trick.

"This kind of magical technique used to install a magic stick is unexpectedly easy to use at certain times."

Bai Ye smiled and tossed the bounty hunter ID card in his hand, then put it back in the upper pocket of his suit.

The commission Bai Ye received was jointly issued by the Victorian government and the Colombian government. The specific content was to arrest a transnational smuggler who had fled to the Colombian Federation.

 

Chapter 17 Chapter 15 Cat and mouse game

"Peter Scott, male, 38 years old."

After opening the kraft paper file bag, Bai Ye put a stack of documents on the dining room table.

"Just the two of us, can we really catch him?"

Texas looked at the map laid out on the dining table, took a pencil and circled it twice in his hand, but didn't know where to circle it.

"I think we should give it a try ... smuggling aromatherapy products and spices between Victoria and Colombia many times."

Bai Ye carefully read the "prey" information and files provided by the entrusting party.In fact, for newly registered bounty hunters, this is indeed an extremely difficult task.

"This task is too difficult for us. Don't forget, we have just arrived in this city for less than two days."

Texas tapped his pen on the table with some dissatisfaction, and even she felt that Bai Ye was a little overwhelmed and whimsical.

"This is our chance..."

Bai Ye naturally heard the little emotions in Texas's words, after all, they only had seven days to arrest this Mr. Scott who didn't know where he was hiding.

"If we only take some tasks such as finding kittens, we can indeed complete them easily." Bai Ye explained patiently, "But we don't have so much time to waste on these scattered and low-return tasks."

Texas nodded, and she actually agreed with Bai Ye's words in her heart.After all, Texas doesn't want to go all over the street looking for cats and dogs, or repair sewers for others.

Come on, Texas is a strong warrior who has been strictly trained by the Texas family. How could he do these weird and trivial things like a hand sweat god who only wants five yen?

"The commissioning party this time is very interesting. In addition to the Victorian and Columbian governments, an aromatherapy company also paid a considerable amount of bounty for this."

Bai Ye put the documents back on the dining table, obviously the boy had already browsed all of them.

"...Incense formula? I see, our Mr. Smuggler seems to have worked as a thief part-time." Texas also looked at the files in the kraft paper bag. She raised her eyebrows and said in a strange tone.

"The information only gives us rough clues and some conjectures, which obviously have no reference value. Otherwise, the government patrols would have caught him long ago."

Bai Ye shrugged his shoulders, and then turned his gaze to the map.

"Is there anything you can do?"

After closing her eyes and thinking for a while, Texas opened her eyes. She really didn't have a clue.Finding someone in a strange city is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

"First of all...Of course I'm looking for Father God!"

Bai Ye took out the holy emblem from his chest pocket, and after holding the wooden holy emblem, Bai Ye closed his eyes and put his hands on his chest.

Texas tilted his head, watching Bai Ye's actions with interest.

"Great Goddess Laif, I will omit it below, please guide me in the direction!"

Bai Ye whispered nondescript prayers. The silver helmet girl Anna was right. This pretty guy didn't have any belief in his god.

[Find it yourself! 】

Soon Bai Ye got a reply from God, it seems that he didn't succeed.His god would not help him in such a trivial matter, let alone—he didn't ask the question sincerely at all, how could God tell him mercifully?

"Well, I knew my god was not reliable." Bai Ye obviously didn't realize his mistake, "Fortunately, I didn't really expect to get the answer so easily."

Bai Ye returned to the chair and stroked the smooth holy emblem. He began to try a new method, and the boy opened the task panel.

After receiving the entrustment from the middle-aged man in the butler uniform, the new task appeared on Bai Ye's task panel.

【Cat and mouse game】

Mission description: A smuggler and part-time thief stole the formula of an incense company, you need to find and catch him within seven days.

Task Rewards: Knife and Vine Sword Skills, EXP, Skill Points*2

Failure penalty: Texas has a lower favorability and is heavily in debt

Remarks: This is the first commission you accept as a bounty hunter

Bai Ye felt that he seemed to have figured out the rules for the system to issue tasks. As long as he accepted the commission or task through formal channels in reality, the system would also refresh the task panel.

However, this conjecture still needs to wait for further experiments to be confirmed.

The purpose of Bai Ye to open the task panel is to complete another guess.

"Hawkeye."

Following the silent recitation of skills, Bai Ye opened Hawkeye.

That's right, the boy wants to try to see if he can find Mr. Smuggler hiding in the city with his eagle eye skills.

"Okay, I thought about it again, and it really didn't work."

Bai Ye shook his head and closed his eagle eyes, obviously he was thinking of eating peaches.The eagle eye skill is still a modified version of the system, so naturally it will not mark Bai Ye's mission goals like in the game.

"So you can only rely on yourself to complete this commission?"

Bai Ye began to think carefully after trying other shortcuts to no avail.He re-read the information in the file bag carefully, and then closed his eyes.

"Do you have a clue?"

Texas asked curiously, now she is not as experienced as three years later.Now in Texas, tasks such as assassination can be easily completed, but the commission that Bai Ye took over is quite tricky in her opinion.

"There are several breakthroughs." Bai Ye said slowly, "The first is the smell of spices, and the second is the word 'smuggling' itself contains many clues."

"The smell can be eliminated through sealing measures and cleaning measures." Texas narrowed his eyes, "Also, don't count on me, I am indeed a Ruper, but my nose...isn't that bad either!"

"Ahem... so we still have to analyze from the second point." Bai Ye scratched his head in embarrassment.

"Well, you go on."

"It is not an easy task to bring spice products from Victoria to Colombia. In addition, he will naturally find someone to take spices to Colombia, otherwise he would not have done it for nothing?"

"Indeed, this is not the first time he has been smuggled. There must be someone here to support him. However, even you can think of it, and the governments of the two countries are not fools, so naturally you can think of it."

"They're only on the first floor, and I'm on the fifth floor... ahem." Bai Ye said a cold joke that only he could understand.

"No, I think you're only on the first floor."

Texas's words have always been sharp, and it seems that this is in line with her swordsmanship or fighting style.The same crisp and neat, simple but extremely deadly.
