An Elegant Noble's Guide to Vacations
Chapter 26 Judge's shop has a lunch break, of course to save time for lunch.
Most of the customers who came to this item shop were adventurers, and when the sun rose to the zenith, almost no customers came to the door.Having said that, there are also guests other than adventurers who come to visit, and as long as someone comes to the door, even during the lunch break, he will come to welcome him.
But recently, the prop shop actually closed its doors during lunch break and is no longer open.
"Ah..." Jaggie let out a weak sigh, locked the door of the store, and put up a sign saying "going out on business".Today he was going to the business guild again, and the other party couldn't listen to what he said, and it was only natural that he was depressed.
Just feeling that the guild thought he was troublesome and troubled, this atmosphere was enough to make him cringe, but this was not a problem that could be solved by swallowing his anger, and it was impossible for him to just accept it like this.
"(Besides, those things that were stolen, maybe brother Lieser will want them one day...!)" He mustered up his energy to cheer himself up, and the effect was excellent.
"Okay...!" However, not long after he took a step, this enthusiasm was also thrown out of the sky by him.
Although it wasn't a bad thing, I don't know if it was a good thing.As he gradually approached the trade guild, the gazes of others and the conversations heard in his ears made his mind turmoil.
"I think the business guild has also fallen... Hey, I found out that he was the victim." "Yes, I heard that he was complaining to the guild recently, but fortunately he found out about it." "I didn't expect the superior clerk to do something This kind of thing... and I heard that the guild wants to hide it." Huh, why does it sound like it's been resolved?
Although full of doubts, Jaggy still went to the business guild according to the original plan.He didn't know what happened, but there were so many people entering and leaving the guild today, he barely passed through the gate, only to see that the guild was so noisy that the roof would blow over.
The merchants asked aggressively, and the staff were busy responding, running around, bowing and apologizing, and roaring everywhere, making people want to go back home.Although Jiaji was at a loss, he still quietly approached the staff member who listened to his complaint recently, and the other party didn't give him any good looks.
"That..." "Yes! Please wait a moment..." As soon as the employee who was looking for the documents raised his head, his face turned livid.The clerk kicked the chair away with a click, stood up, and bowed ninety degrees to him, obviously expressing deep apology.
"Huh!" The reaction was quite different from the indifferent treatment so far, and Jagi looked around in bewilderment.Seeing everyone's eyes on him, he would have known better not to look aside, he thought, but it was too late.
"It's all due to our negligence that caused you so much trouble. I'm really sorry! The stolen goods in your store have been found, and they will be returned to you immediately. The guild leader will formally apologize to you later. ...!" "No, don't bother..." Jaggy just needs to get back the stolen goods, so that similar incidents don't happen again in the future.
But the crowd around said in one voice, "Call the clerk who stole things out!" "That clerk also came to my store, how are you going to compensate me!" The name has already spread.
Logically speaking, it is impossible for the guild to deliberately spread this kind of news. How could this be the case?Just as Jagi was wondering, the staff hurriedly took him to another room, presumably because Jagi was the central figure in this incident, and the content of the conversation was not good for everyone to hear.
"Please sit down, please wait a moment, the guild leader will be here soon." "Okay..." "Here is the stolen product, I will return it to you first, please check to see." In another room, Jia Although Ji was confused, he still listened to the staff and sat on the sofa, accepting the goods brought by the other party.When I opened the package, I saw that it was indeed a labyrinth item stolen from my store.
He breathed a sigh of relief, and nodded towards the staff standing aside, the staff bowed deeply and exited the door.
"I'm sorry to keep you waiting." "No, I won't!" As soon as the staff left, someone walked in. It was the head of the business guild of the capital.Jiaji stood up to greet him respectfully, and sat back on the sofa again when he saw the guildmaster politely asking him to sit down.Then, the guildmaster apologized to him with a sad expression.
"That...is it convenient for me to ask, how did you get the product back this time...?" "Of course." The guild leader nodded deeply, and explained what happened this morning.
There were actually a few adventurers who came to the guild during business hours and confessed loudly that they joined forces with the guild's dispatch clerks to repeatedly sell the stolen goods he had stolen.There was no sound in the guild for a while, but as soon as the adventurers mentioned the name of the clerk and the stolen goods, there was an uproar in the audience.
"We immediately notified the Adventurer's Guild, and the staff sent over there listened to the explanation and dragged away those adventurers without any explanation." I always thought it sounded like Stad, Judge thought to himself.
The guild leader smiled self-deprecatingly with a exhausted expression.Thinking of the commotion just now, it was natural.
"We definitely didn't mean to hide the information...but we didn't expect the news to spread at an abnormal speed, so it turned into the current commotion." "Where... the clerk who had the accident?" "He noticed that something was wrong , originally planned to abscond, but was arrested by the military police because of his suspicious behavior. As for his punishment, this association and the military police will discuss and decide, and we will contact you after confirmation." "No, it doesn't matter! I just want to get it back The product is ready...!" Jia Ji desperately shook his head in denial, and the guild leader finally showed a barely visible smile when he saw this.Although he is the leader of the guild, he is only the leader of the branch, so it must have been quite hard work.
He watched Jaggie leave the room, watched his back leaving the guild from the window until he could no longer be seen.There was only one person left in the room, he muttered to himself.
"If this matter gets to his grandfather's ears, I don't know what will happen..." Just losing his job is not enough to make amends, and the business guild itself may suffer a major blow.
Although this is also self-inflicted.The guildmaster sighed softly, walked out of the room with his back straightened, and prepared to devote himself to the aftermath of this tragic situation.
"It turns out that this kind of thing happened. You haven't been active recently. I'm worried." Searle, so embarrassed to say to him.
As the shopkeeper, he seemed ashamed that the merchandise had been stolen, but it was not his responsibility.Judge's recently dejected expression finally became clear again, and Liesel patted his cheek appreciatively.
He felt Jieer's helpless gaze from the side, but Lieser didn't care at all.
"Then... that...?" "Ah, what about me?" Jaggy smiled softly while feeling the touch of the palm touching his cheek, and turned his eyes to the guest he had never met.The bright red hair flicked behind the man, and Jaggie was afraid of him for no reason, and his attitude naturally seemed a little cringe.
The man raised a friendly and pleasing smile, touched the scales on his cheeks, and opened his mouth with a harmless appearance.
"I'm Iraven, and I'm doing my best to join the team of these two, hello!" "Hey!" Dissatisfied, Jia Ji retreated further and further away step by step upon seeing this.Lieser's hand was grabbed by him, and he was naturally brought to the inside of the workbench.
Confirming that he was far enough away, Jaggie arched his slender back tremblingly, bent down, and put his lips close to Lieser's ear.Are you trying to whisper something?Liesel also listened attentively.
"Jagi?" "Brother Liesel, do you really...uh, really want to let that person join the team...?" Although Jagi was reserved, he was polite, so it was surprising that he would say that.
Lieser smiled wryly, as expected of Jagi, he appreciated it in his heart.Jaggie has an excellent eye for appraisal, and it seems that the eye for seeing people should not be underestimated.This incident probably happened because the clerk was not the candidate proposed by Jagi himself.
Of course, Jagi probably never thought that he was a thief, but since he felt the fear from Irevan, he must have vaguely realized the nature of this person.
"Do you think it's bad?" "It's not bad..." Judge couldn't help hesitating.
It was impossible for Lieser not to notice what he felt.Since he knew this and allowed Irevan to stay by his side, there was no need for Jagi to say anything.Then, why did I still discourage Lieser like this?Sure enough, as Liesel said, it was probably because he didn't like it.
Jie Er can do it, but the reason why Iraven can't accept it is probably because Jie Er puts Liser in a higher priority position than anything else.
Even the cigarettes he used to smoke so often, he would never smoke around Lieser.Once, Jia Ji asked him the reason tremblingly, Jie Er just replied as a matter of course: "It's not suitable for him, the smell." In front of Jia Ji who doesn't smoke, Jie Er always smokes right now, just because the other party is Liesel, he stopped smoking.
To put it another way, it is precisely because of this that Jaggy allows Jieer to stay by Lieser's side.
"But, to join Brother Liesel's team, you should... more..." Maybe he couldn't find a suitable way to say it, but Jaggy still put his face next to him, looking up at his expression in bewilderment , seeing Lissel showing a wry smile.Probably understanding what he was thinking, Liesel patted his lowered head.
"Don't worry, he hasn't joined the team yet." "Is that so...? That's good." Then, Liesel looked at Irevan.Seeing that he seemed to be looking at this side with a little pleasure, Lieser smiled brightly at him.
"However, if Judge doesn't agree anyway, I'll reject him." "Ah! Hey, wait... Your name is Judge, right? You don't want me to join the team so much? Why?" Asked aggressively by this person who knew they didn't get along, Jagi looked to Lieser for help, crying.But Lieser returned to Jier's side at some point, and was discussing something with him, so he didn't look here.Failed to seek help.
"Hey, why?" Although the tone sounded so desperate, the man still had a smile on his lips.It is because of this kind of place!But Judge didn't have the courage to say it, and was completely overwhelmed with fear.At this time, in his chaotic mind, a friend who had nothing to do with chaos appeared.
"You, you go ask Stad!" Irevan left the item shop just like that.
"So, what if... Hey, you really left?" "Idiot." Lieser interrupted the conversation and watched Irevan, who was extremely active, leave.
Irevan has a shrewd personality, but he often acts on the spur of the moment, probably on purpose, and he probably regards it as a kind of fun.
Seeing Jagi, who was about to cry, slowly loosening his tense shoulders, Liesel laughed, and spoke as if remembering something.
"There is no commercial guild in Markaide, right?" "Ah, yes, because it is an autonomous body over there..." It is called a commercial country but there is no commercial guild, just because there are already lords in charge of managing businesses.Of course, the Merchant State is not completely unrelated to the guild, and a good relationship has been established between the two.
Merchants must meet certain conditions in order to register as a trade guild.There are no restrictions on any conditions in the commercial country, no matter what kind of shop can be opened, it is not restricted by the guild regulations, but on the other hand, it cannot enjoy the convenient services of the guild.
Both have their advantages and it's a matter of choice which one to choose.
"Has Grandpa Yinsay registered to join the guild?" "Ah, yes, because our family is in the trading industry, joining the guild can enjoy preferential treatment in many countries, so it is necessary..." "Then he must know .” Liesel smiled gently.Although Jaggie didn't understand what he meant, he tilted his head and followed with a smile.The next second, the smile froze.
"The day I saw you listless, I wanted to treat you to something to eat, so I sent a letter to Grandpa Insay and asked him what you like.
"I sent Suda. Lieser added, which is equivalent to an extra dollar.
Speed Express is the brainchild of the Postal Service Association.Letters sent to a specific country have to accumulate a certain amount before they are delivered in one batch. Express Express is a service that saves waiting time with the power of money.
The staff of the postal union will carry sturdy and durable mail bags and drive fast horses to deliver letters, and the delivery speed is quite fast.
"Woo... Grandpa might think that I, the shopkeeper, are too worthless." If it was a commercial country, it would take about two or three days to arrive, and the letter might have already been delivered to Insay.
The scandal of the business guild had spread at an incredible speed, and Jagi was depressed at this point, because Sai could easily connect the two things together.
"It's my fault." "No! Brother Lieser is worried about me... that... I, I'm very happy... yo." Jagi blushed, shyly showing joy.Now is not the time to talk about this, Jie Er looked aside and sighed.Anyone can see that Yin Sai favored Jinsun to the sky. He heard that the dispatched clerk had dirty hands and feet, and the guild dealt with it in such a contemptuous way. It is impossible for him not to be dissatisfied.
If it is not done well, Insay might quit the guild, and the logistics will no longer go through the commercial guild, but will be traded through its own channels.It can be said that Insay has single-handedly controlled the transportation and circulation in this area. Once the guild becomes an enemy of him, some chambers of commerce may choose to withdraw from the guild.
If things get to this point, the worst case may even lead to the disintegration of the business guild.
"(This guy's forensic vision sometimes fails.)" Lieser created this possibility by himself, but Jagi felt that he was a gentle person from the bottom of his heart. What's going on with this guy?The letter he wrote to Insay was probably the same. It was more than just asking Judge what his favorite food was.
If you notice this and act coquettishly on purpose, this person is terrible, but Judge is not so shrewd.Maybe.
"I was planning to treat you to something to eat. It's rare that the matter is resolved. Would you like to have something to celebrate?" "Is it possible...! I, I want to go! Ah... But the treat is still...!" Jia Ji gave a soft smile.Seeing his appearance, Jie Er nodded, it really was just a malfunction of his appraisal vision.
Liesel and Jieer parted ways in front of Judge's shop.
The two of them came here together only to appraise the maze item they just obtained.Of course, Irevan also followed up the maze just now, but surprisingly, he never got involved in Lieser's private time.That's why he immediately ran to Stad.
"(It's a bit embarrassing at this time.)" It was not yet dusk, and the sky was still blue.Although the sky was a little darker, it was too early to go back to the hotel and wait for dinner.
Coming back so early is evidence that they successfully completed the commission, but it still makes people panic.
How about going back to the hotel to study?Lieser had just drawn up plans for his amazing cocoon when a coffee shop came into view.It's also good for a late afternoon tea.
"Welcome... come...?" "Can I take a seat on the balcony?" Although the clerk who greeted him was a little stiff at first, he still smiled at the end and led him to the seat.
Lieser preferred the balcony seats.After inquiring, he ordered the black tea recommended by the clerk, listened to the pleasant hustle and bustle of the street, watched the crowds, and finally took out his book and started to read.
He brushed the hair that fell to his cheeks behind his ears, and lowered his eyes to look at the words arranged on the page.The figure reading in the sun was as eye-catching as usual, but Lieser didn't mind, and his eyes were chasing the words on the page.
He was about to bring the black tea to his mouth when he suddenly noticed something.
"Ah." He found a familiar figure in the crowd.Liesel waved his hand, and the other party's expression twitched for a moment, but he continued to walk forward.
Seeing this, Lieser stopped waving her hand gracefully, and instead beckoned him to come over.The man stopped and pointed to himself.
Even though he felt that the other party wanted him to deny it, Liesel nodded leisurely.
"Please sit down." "...No, I feel like I will be killed by the leader." The man walked into the coffee shop resignedly, and Lieser asked him to sit in the opposite seat, but was refused.
In this way, he sat next to the seat indicated by Lieser. Although it was at a different table, he sat diagonally across from Lieser.Seeing that he chose a position where it was difficult to tell whether the two knew each other, the clerk was a little confused, and Lieser helped him order drinks with the clerk, and ordered sparkling water without authorization according to the impression the other party gave him.
"I'll pay for it." "No, I ordered it for you without authorization." "No, really please let me pay." The man shook his head seriously.If the man who led his group knew that he had invited Liesel to treat him, he didn't know what would happen, just thinking about it made him afraid.
The man actually paid the clerk who brought the drink.Wouldn't it be better to let him order his favorite drink?Lieser looked at it and thought, but it seems that sparkling water is completely acceptable to him.The man didn't use the straw inserted in the cup, and directly drank the beverage in the glass.
"Are you the one who is in charge of monitoring me today?" "Well, that's right." His eyes were covered by bangs, so he couldn't see the face under the bangs at all, and his clothes were completely different from last night.But you can't be wrong, this is one of the characters that Liesel saw last night, and he is a member of the bandit group led by Irevan.
It was not in vain to write down their faces last night, Lieser smiled and closed the book.If he hadn't met, he would have no way to find out, this surveillance is so invisible.Lieser is really envious, his tracking skills were only disgusted by Jieer last night.
"Thank you last night, did you get enough sleep?" "That's what you're worried about. It's okay." Lieser didn't take the adventurer's matter to heart at all, even the thief was startled, the man thought to himself .This person has an elegant temperament and a gentle appearance, but it is impossible to be a sage and gentleman in terms of heart.
"No, let's not talk about this. Is there anything you want to ask me?" "I found the person in charge of surveillance for the first time. I was so happy that I couldn't help calling you over." In other words, Rissel said with a happy expression.Really or not, the man looked at Liesel.
"And..." At this moment, the man's narrowed eyes and smiling lips locked his gaze for an instant.A certain feeling changed the atmosphere of the audience, and he almost forgot that this was an unusual balcony.
Next, no matter what you are asked, you are not allowed to lie, otherwise it is an unforgivable crime.This space made people believe so, but after Lieser smiled brightly, it disappeared immediately.If it's intentional, it's really bad, the man thought.In this way, facing Lieser, he would not be able to pass the level in a daze.
"It's a rare opportunity. I would like to ask you to talk about your leader's affairs." "...What is it?" "Everything is fine. The latest behavior is also good, or you have become a little better, or something like that." What? Possibly, the man's face twitched.It seemed that there was little hope for the latter, Liesel laughed amusedly.
According to Liesel's understanding, Irevan should not have been involved in thieves activities recently.Even so, he still can't be called a good boy. I don't know if he has done something bad, or it is essentially too late.
By the way, the man put on a calm face on the surface, but the cold sweat in his heart has already flowed into a waterfall.If this conversation will determine whether Irevan can join the team, according to the content of the answer, his head will really be lost.
"Don't worry, just tell me what he really looks like." Liesel said as if he saw through everything, urging him to speak.The man shook the glass, chose his words carefully, and then opened his mouth as if giving up.
"Ah... since a few days ago, his attitude towards you has changed. But I think, you should know about this." It probably refers to the day when Irevan dug his own grave and was warned by Liesel.It seemed that the other thieves didn't know what happened that day, but that was only natural.His eyelids were swollen like that, there was still a way to hide the truth, Lieser couldn't help admiring him.
The man watched his reaction, and continued speaking while watching Lieser's face.
"From then on, he watched you more like a guard." "Guard?" "Ah...no, it's just that he said that he doesn't want to see anything trouble you." In fact, Iraven's The wording was even more outrageous, but he only abridged what he judged to be convenient for disclosure.Lieser's pupils looked at him, and the man thanked the bangs that obscured his vision, while keeping his gaze away.
"What about yesterday? I'm wondering if it's too casual to leave this matter to him." "No, he looks happy instead." The man poured the glass while talking, and the bubbles Throat throbbed, and the mind became clearer.
"Recently, he's been thinking about how to join the team. Yesterday he was simply trusted by you, so he felt happy." "It sounds like you've known him for a long time." We got to know each other in time." At first glance, Irevan seemed to express all his emotions frankly, but in fact they were often all disguises.Being able to tell how this kind of person is feeling means that you have been with him for a while.
"(It seems that he used it and threw it away, and used it separately from another group of elites?)" Lieser began to think about Irevan's performance recently and what the young man in front of him said.I thought I'd have to wait a little longer, but the time is almost here.While tasting the black tea, he pondered leisurely.
"I'll ask you another question." "Yes?" Maybe it was to save myself a way out when Irevan witnessed it at this moment. The man pretended not to know him, and only looked at Liesel again when he heard Liesel speak. to him.
"What would you think if, apart from you elites, I killed a large number of subordinates at the bottom?" Would you hate me?Liesel said with a smile.This topic seems too sensational from that face, the man thought so, that's all.Other than that, no words came to his mind, not even mood swings.
"Well, those are just used and thrown away anyway." Although his words and deeds conformed to common sense at first glance, this man was still a thief through and through.He spoke lightly, as if talking about the weather casually, and Liesel could clearly feel this.
"It's better to say that if I can be killed by you, mere minions should be proud." In such a short period of time, the impact on myself was really significant, and the eyes of the man's bangs were peeking at Li. Searle's look.
Seeing Liesel smiling leisurely at him, he seemed to vaguely understand why the leader was so obsessed with this person.When his expectations were met, those eyes turned to him in admiration, and the sense of satisfaction brought by that moment was really incredible.
"Shall I do it?" "No, it's not necessary." The man forced his thoughts to stop, and asked Lieser.Lieser shook his head, and then suddenly spoke to the crowd passing by the balcony.
"Excuse me, excuse me." "Yes, are you calling me?" Liesel called to the man who was wearing a military police uniform.
The gendarme approached in a little confusion, but the thief didn't waver at all, still drinking sparkling water.For him, this is clearly a natural enemy, and his courage is really extraordinary.Lieser smiled and turned to face the gendarme.
"I saw you a lot today." "Ah, don't worry, a lot of people have been dispatched, but there is no danger." The reason may be the incident that happened at the Chamber of Commerce this morning.Perhaps it was because the guild requested the assistance of the gendarmes. The gendarmes were going around to confirm the victim's shop. There were so many people that there was no need to look for them. Just sitting on the balcony and waiting could stop the passing gendarmes.
"May I ask if the Gendarmerie Chief also came out to assist in the confirmation?" "?...Well, who is it referring to?" Why do you ask?The gendarme asked puzzledly, and Liesel lightly touched his lips in thought.
"Well, I don't know his name...he is a very serious person, but he doesn't know what to do. He doesn't seem to be good at dealing with the world, and he has a strong sense of justice." Freeze in place.
The reason why he was stupid was because he accurately associated a specific person.Is it really good to judge who the other party is referring to from this description?The gendarme's gaze wandered for a while, and after he had made up his mind, he replied in the affirmative.Liesel smiled at him after listening.
"Is he nearby?" "Yes, the confirmation business is done at the store in front." "So, can I trouble you to invite him over?" The gendarme was stunned.
If it's a normal situation, just reply with "we'll come back after we're done business" at this time.But the noble and extraordinary person in front of him, even though he asked a question, never thought that he would be rejected.
His appearance, posture, words and deeds seem to be a real nobleman, but recently, rumors of "adventurers who resemble noblemen" have often been heard.If he is that adventurer... No, no matter what his status is, wouldn't it be good to call the Gendarmerie Chief over anyway?There is really no way to reject this person.No, no, as a military policeman, at this time you should...
"Should I call him over right now?" the gendarme asked tremblingly after thinking for a while, and Lieser tilted his head in disbelief.
"Can't you?" "No, I can't say it's not possible..." "Just tell him that he knows the adventurer who knows Viscount Ray, and he should know." "Go right away!!" Hearing Lieser move out For the unreachable existence of "Viscount", the military police immediately rushed to find someone.
He had long since had no intention of doubting whether this person really knew the Viscount, or rather, he had no doubts about it at all.It seems that he must have misheard when he said adventurers.The gendarme convinced himself so, and ran away, while Lieser watched him run away while drinking black tea.
"Oh, it's really amazing to actually know the Viscount." The male thief said this, and it was impossible to tell from his tone whether he was really admired or not.
"When you were in charge of tracking, I also talked to the Viscount, right?" "It was far away at that time, so I couldn't hear the conversation—" the man stopped in the middle of speaking.
Logically speaking, Lieser would not have known that he was the one who was in charge of monitoring at that time, after all, even if someone was usually watching, he didn't realize it at all.But it didn't feel like a deliberate cliché, and there was no sign of Lieser trying to test the opponent's reaction at all.
It feels refreshing to be completely played with in the palm of your hand.
"Ah, here we come." Lieser, who was looking at the crowd, suddenly raised his head.
"Sorry to bother you when I'm busy." "You called me over, you're just an adventurer...! No, you're an adventurer... no, you're...!" I'm sorry to be so messed up." The Gendarmerie Chief ran all the way over, panting a little, as if desperately trying to say something.Lieser showed him a warm smile, handed out black tea, and asked him if he would like to drink some after taking a breath.But the Chief of Gendarmerie immediately put out his hand to stop him, saying that he is on duty now, and he really deserves to be a decent person.
Since I invited him over when he was halfway through his work, let's finish the important things as soon as possible.Liesel thought so, and looked up at the Chief Gendarmerie who was grumbling but standing upright.
"I have something to ask the Viscount, and I would like to ask you to make an appointment. Can you tell the Viscount that I hope to meet him as soon as possible?" "This... no, people of my status don't have much chance to meet with him..." "Are you going to report on this business?" Although he is the Gendarmerie Chief, overall, his status is definitely not high-level, and it is impossible to report to Rey in person.Even if he told the truth to the chief of the gendarmerie, he didn't know whether the other party would respond.
"I'll tell the chief, that's fine." "Thank you." However, the Gendarmerie Chief was sure that not only would it be impossible for Rey to refuse this request, but he would welcome it with pleasure.That being the case, it is not up to you to judge yourself.After some distress, he nodded in agreement.
Although he is serious, out of the question and not good at dealing with the world, he is not a person who does not know how to adapt.
"Is it okay to take the answer to the previous hotel?" "I'm sorry for your trouble. You have worked hard." Liesel comforted.Although the Chief Gendarmerie hesitated for a moment, he returned a salute and left.
Lieser looked at the energetic figure and confirmed that he was out of sight before looking back at the thief.
"That's what happened, please tell him to come to me tomorrow morning." "Well, if our leader is turned away by you, it will be troublesome." "Then it's up to you whether to go to the appointment or not." Decide for yourself." He will definitely attend the appointment.The thief thought so, and agreed as if giving up.The options given by Lissel do not have the so-called right to choose, after all, he already knows how the other party will choose.
"It's almost time for me to leave." Lieser took a sip of the cold black tea and stood up.
Anyway, he wasn't his companion, the male thief was still sitting in his seat, watching him get up casually.He thought Liesel was going to leave, but he saw him standing at his desk, is there anything else?The man was just about to drink up the sparkling water in the glass when he stopped suddenly.
The glass that was about to be brought to his mouth was suspended in mid-air, and he saw that noble face gradually leaning towards him, his body immobilized as if being pinned.
"You probably mean what you said. But..." The glass was still in the man's hand, and Liesel slowly took the completely unused straw in the glass.The slightly tilted face, the lowered eyelids, and the slightly exposed teeth when he opened his mouth to hold the straw, were really close to the man's eyebrows.
Illustration p267 He heard a slight swallowing sound in his throat, and stared blankly at the man who opened his lips slightly, let go of the straw, and watched the straw that had lost its support sway in the cup.
"He won't kill you, absolutely not." Liesel smiled slightly, left these words and left.The thief couldn't say a word, and silently watched him leave.
Why?Because he understood the meaning of Lieser's words.Unfortunately, he was there, absolutely there.The male thief was ready to lose his life, he felt an extremely weak breath coming from behind.
Then an arm was placed on his shoulder, bright red hair appeared from behind him, the male thief turned his head to look at the man, his movements were as stiff as a malfunctioning magic tool.
"The relationship has become so good. Did I say you could talk to him?" "...No, he called me over." "You showed your face? Let that person see it? Just because we met last night? "Men are mentally prepared to die.
"Hey, don't be too arrogant to me." The man's voice was as low as a snake gliding across the ground, strangling his neck as if it had an entity.This feeling made him stiff again, in a different sense from before.
All he could rely on was Lieser's words just now.He really won't kill me, will he?Since you dare to say no, why don't you help me smooth things over before leaving?The male thief shouted in his heart, when Yi Raven's arm suddenly moved.
I never thought I would die in broad daylight.Iraven threw aside the man who was sighing so, snatched the glass, took the straw in his mouth, and sucked up the remaining third of the drink in one breath.
"What's the matter, he invited you to drink?" "Impossible." The empty glass hit the table with a crisp "knock".
The male thief watched Irevan's expression tremblingly.Those irritable pupils turned to him, there was no warmth in the eyes, and the long and narrow pupils were narrowed, making the man shake his head immediately, otherwise he would be so small.
But recently, the prop shop actually closed its doors during lunch break and is no longer open.
"Ah..." Jaggie let out a weak sigh, locked the door of the store, and put up a sign saying "going out on business".Today he was going to the business guild again, and the other party couldn't listen to what he said, and it was only natural that he was depressed.
Just feeling that the guild thought he was troublesome and troubled, this atmosphere was enough to make him cringe, but this was not a problem that could be solved by swallowing his anger, and it was impossible for him to just accept it like this.
"(Besides, those things that were stolen, maybe brother Lieser will want them one day...!)" He mustered up his energy to cheer himself up, and the effect was excellent.
"Okay...!" However, not long after he took a step, this enthusiasm was also thrown out of the sky by him.
Although it wasn't a bad thing, I don't know if it was a good thing.As he gradually approached the trade guild, the gazes of others and the conversations heard in his ears made his mind turmoil.
"I think the business guild has also fallen... Hey, I found out that he was the victim." "Yes, I heard that he was complaining to the guild recently, but fortunately he found out about it." "I didn't expect the superior clerk to do something This kind of thing... and I heard that the guild wants to hide it." Huh, why does it sound like it's been resolved?
Although full of doubts, Jaggy still went to the business guild according to the original plan.He didn't know what happened, but there were so many people entering and leaving the guild today, he barely passed through the gate, only to see that the guild was so noisy that the roof would blow over.
The merchants asked aggressively, and the staff were busy responding, running around, bowing and apologizing, and roaring everywhere, making people want to go back home.Although Jiaji was at a loss, he still quietly approached the staff member who listened to his complaint recently, and the other party didn't give him any good looks.
"That..." "Yes! Please wait a moment..." As soon as the employee who was looking for the documents raised his head, his face turned livid.The clerk kicked the chair away with a click, stood up, and bowed ninety degrees to him, obviously expressing deep apology.
"Huh!" The reaction was quite different from the indifferent treatment so far, and Jagi looked around in bewilderment.Seeing everyone's eyes on him, he would have known better not to look aside, he thought, but it was too late.
"It's all due to our negligence that caused you so much trouble. I'm really sorry! The stolen goods in your store have been found, and they will be returned to you immediately. The guild leader will formally apologize to you later. ...!" "No, don't bother..." Jaggy just needs to get back the stolen goods, so that similar incidents don't happen again in the future.
But the crowd around said in one voice, "Call the clerk who stole things out!" "That clerk also came to my store, how are you going to compensate me!" The name has already spread.
Logically speaking, it is impossible for the guild to deliberately spread this kind of news. How could this be the case?Just as Jagi was wondering, the staff hurriedly took him to another room, presumably because Jagi was the central figure in this incident, and the content of the conversation was not good for everyone to hear.
"Please sit down, please wait a moment, the guild leader will be here soon." "Okay..." "Here is the stolen product, I will return it to you first, please check to see." In another room, Jia Although Ji was confused, he still listened to the staff and sat on the sofa, accepting the goods brought by the other party.When I opened the package, I saw that it was indeed a labyrinth item stolen from my store.
He breathed a sigh of relief, and nodded towards the staff standing aside, the staff bowed deeply and exited the door.
"I'm sorry to keep you waiting." "No, I won't!" As soon as the staff left, someone walked in. It was the head of the business guild of the capital.Jiaji stood up to greet him respectfully, and sat back on the sofa again when he saw the guildmaster politely asking him to sit down.Then, the guildmaster apologized to him with a sad expression.
"That...is it convenient for me to ask, how did you get the product back this time...?" "Of course." The guild leader nodded deeply, and explained what happened this morning.
There were actually a few adventurers who came to the guild during business hours and confessed loudly that they joined forces with the guild's dispatch clerks to repeatedly sell the stolen goods he had stolen.There was no sound in the guild for a while, but as soon as the adventurers mentioned the name of the clerk and the stolen goods, there was an uproar in the audience.
"We immediately notified the Adventurer's Guild, and the staff sent over there listened to the explanation and dragged away those adventurers without any explanation." I always thought it sounded like Stad, Judge thought to himself.
The guild leader smiled self-deprecatingly with a exhausted expression.Thinking of the commotion just now, it was natural.
"We definitely didn't mean to hide the information...but we didn't expect the news to spread at an abnormal speed, so it turned into the current commotion." "Where... the clerk who had the accident?" "He noticed that something was wrong , originally planned to abscond, but was arrested by the military police because of his suspicious behavior. As for his punishment, this association and the military police will discuss and decide, and we will contact you after confirmation." "No, it doesn't matter! I just want to get it back The product is ready...!" Jia Ji desperately shook his head in denial, and the guild leader finally showed a barely visible smile when he saw this.Although he is the leader of the guild, he is only the leader of the branch, so it must have been quite hard work.
He watched Jaggie leave the room, watched his back leaving the guild from the window until he could no longer be seen.There was only one person left in the room, he muttered to himself.
"If this matter gets to his grandfather's ears, I don't know what will happen..." Just losing his job is not enough to make amends, and the business guild itself may suffer a major blow.
Although this is also self-inflicted.The guildmaster sighed softly, walked out of the room with his back straightened, and prepared to devote himself to the aftermath of this tragic situation.
"It turns out that this kind of thing happened. You haven't been active recently. I'm worried." Searle, so embarrassed to say to him.
As the shopkeeper, he seemed ashamed that the merchandise had been stolen, but it was not his responsibility.Judge's recently dejected expression finally became clear again, and Liesel patted his cheek appreciatively.
He felt Jieer's helpless gaze from the side, but Lieser didn't care at all.
"Then... that...?" "Ah, what about me?" Jaggy smiled softly while feeling the touch of the palm touching his cheek, and turned his eyes to the guest he had never met.The bright red hair flicked behind the man, and Jaggie was afraid of him for no reason, and his attitude naturally seemed a little cringe.
The man raised a friendly and pleasing smile, touched the scales on his cheeks, and opened his mouth with a harmless appearance.
"I'm Iraven, and I'm doing my best to join the team of these two, hello!" "Hey!" Dissatisfied, Jia Ji retreated further and further away step by step upon seeing this.Lieser's hand was grabbed by him, and he was naturally brought to the inside of the workbench.
Confirming that he was far enough away, Jaggie arched his slender back tremblingly, bent down, and put his lips close to Lieser's ear.Are you trying to whisper something?Liesel also listened attentively.
"Jagi?" "Brother Liesel, do you really...uh, really want to let that person join the team...?" Although Jagi was reserved, he was polite, so it was surprising that he would say that.
Lieser smiled wryly, as expected of Jagi, he appreciated it in his heart.Jaggie has an excellent eye for appraisal, and it seems that the eye for seeing people should not be underestimated.This incident probably happened because the clerk was not the candidate proposed by Jagi himself.
Of course, Jagi probably never thought that he was a thief, but since he felt the fear from Irevan, he must have vaguely realized the nature of this person.
"Do you think it's bad?" "It's not bad..." Judge couldn't help hesitating.
It was impossible for Lieser not to notice what he felt.Since he knew this and allowed Irevan to stay by his side, there was no need for Jagi to say anything.Then, why did I still discourage Lieser like this?Sure enough, as Liesel said, it was probably because he didn't like it.
Jie Er can do it, but the reason why Iraven can't accept it is probably because Jie Er puts Liser in a higher priority position than anything else.
Even the cigarettes he used to smoke so often, he would never smoke around Lieser.Once, Jia Ji asked him the reason tremblingly, Jie Er just replied as a matter of course: "It's not suitable for him, the smell." In front of Jia Ji who doesn't smoke, Jie Er always smokes right now, just because the other party is Liesel, he stopped smoking.
To put it another way, it is precisely because of this that Jaggy allows Jieer to stay by Lieser's side.
"But, to join Brother Liesel's team, you should... more..." Maybe he couldn't find a suitable way to say it, but Jaggy still put his face next to him, looking up at his expression in bewilderment , seeing Lissel showing a wry smile.Probably understanding what he was thinking, Liesel patted his lowered head.
"Don't worry, he hasn't joined the team yet." "Is that so...? That's good." Then, Liesel looked at Irevan.Seeing that he seemed to be looking at this side with a little pleasure, Lieser smiled brightly at him.
"However, if Judge doesn't agree anyway, I'll reject him." "Ah! Hey, wait... Your name is Judge, right? You don't want me to join the team so much? Why?" Asked aggressively by this person who knew they didn't get along, Jagi looked to Lieser for help, crying.But Lieser returned to Jier's side at some point, and was discussing something with him, so he didn't look here.Failed to seek help.
"Hey, why?" Although the tone sounded so desperate, the man still had a smile on his lips.It is because of this kind of place!But Judge didn't have the courage to say it, and was completely overwhelmed with fear.At this time, in his chaotic mind, a friend who had nothing to do with chaos appeared.
"You, you go ask Stad!" Irevan left the item shop just like that.
"So, what if... Hey, you really left?" "Idiot." Lieser interrupted the conversation and watched Irevan, who was extremely active, leave.
Irevan has a shrewd personality, but he often acts on the spur of the moment, probably on purpose, and he probably regards it as a kind of fun.
Seeing Jagi, who was about to cry, slowly loosening his tense shoulders, Liesel laughed, and spoke as if remembering something.
"There is no commercial guild in Markaide, right?" "Ah, yes, because it is an autonomous body over there..." It is called a commercial country but there is no commercial guild, just because there are already lords in charge of managing businesses.Of course, the Merchant State is not completely unrelated to the guild, and a good relationship has been established between the two.
Merchants must meet certain conditions in order to register as a trade guild.There are no restrictions on any conditions in the commercial country, no matter what kind of shop can be opened, it is not restricted by the guild regulations, but on the other hand, it cannot enjoy the convenient services of the guild.
Both have their advantages and it's a matter of choice which one to choose.
"Has Grandpa Yinsay registered to join the guild?" "Ah, yes, because our family is in the trading industry, joining the guild can enjoy preferential treatment in many countries, so it is necessary..." "Then he must know .” Liesel smiled gently.Although Jaggie didn't understand what he meant, he tilted his head and followed with a smile.The next second, the smile froze.
"The day I saw you listless, I wanted to treat you to something to eat, so I sent a letter to Grandpa Insay and asked him what you like.
"I sent Suda. Lieser added, which is equivalent to an extra dollar.
Speed Express is the brainchild of the Postal Service Association.Letters sent to a specific country have to accumulate a certain amount before they are delivered in one batch. Express Express is a service that saves waiting time with the power of money.
The staff of the postal union will carry sturdy and durable mail bags and drive fast horses to deliver letters, and the delivery speed is quite fast.
"Woo... Grandpa might think that I, the shopkeeper, are too worthless." If it was a commercial country, it would take about two or three days to arrive, and the letter might have already been delivered to Insay.
The scandal of the business guild had spread at an incredible speed, and Jagi was depressed at this point, because Sai could easily connect the two things together.
"It's my fault." "No! Brother Lieser is worried about me... that... I, I'm very happy... yo." Jagi blushed, shyly showing joy.Now is not the time to talk about this, Jie Er looked aside and sighed.Anyone can see that Yin Sai favored Jinsun to the sky. He heard that the dispatched clerk had dirty hands and feet, and the guild dealt with it in such a contemptuous way. It is impossible for him not to be dissatisfied.
If it is not done well, Insay might quit the guild, and the logistics will no longer go through the commercial guild, but will be traded through its own channels.It can be said that Insay has single-handedly controlled the transportation and circulation in this area. Once the guild becomes an enemy of him, some chambers of commerce may choose to withdraw from the guild.
If things get to this point, the worst case may even lead to the disintegration of the business guild.
"(This guy's forensic vision sometimes fails.)" Lieser created this possibility by himself, but Jagi felt that he was a gentle person from the bottom of his heart. What's going on with this guy?The letter he wrote to Insay was probably the same. It was more than just asking Judge what his favorite food was.
If you notice this and act coquettishly on purpose, this person is terrible, but Judge is not so shrewd.Maybe.
"I was planning to treat you to something to eat. It's rare that the matter is resolved. Would you like to have something to celebrate?" "Is it possible...! I, I want to go! Ah... But the treat is still...!" Jia Ji gave a soft smile.Seeing his appearance, Jie Er nodded, it really was just a malfunction of his appraisal vision.
Liesel and Jieer parted ways in front of Judge's shop.
The two of them came here together only to appraise the maze item they just obtained.Of course, Irevan also followed up the maze just now, but surprisingly, he never got involved in Lieser's private time.That's why he immediately ran to Stad.
"(It's a bit embarrassing at this time.)" It was not yet dusk, and the sky was still blue.Although the sky was a little darker, it was too early to go back to the hotel and wait for dinner.
Coming back so early is evidence that they successfully completed the commission, but it still makes people panic.
How about going back to the hotel to study?Lieser had just drawn up plans for his amazing cocoon when a coffee shop came into view.It's also good for a late afternoon tea.
"Welcome... come...?" "Can I take a seat on the balcony?" Although the clerk who greeted him was a little stiff at first, he still smiled at the end and led him to the seat.
Lieser preferred the balcony seats.After inquiring, he ordered the black tea recommended by the clerk, listened to the pleasant hustle and bustle of the street, watched the crowds, and finally took out his book and started to read.
He brushed the hair that fell to his cheeks behind his ears, and lowered his eyes to look at the words arranged on the page.The figure reading in the sun was as eye-catching as usual, but Lieser didn't mind, and his eyes were chasing the words on the page.
He was about to bring the black tea to his mouth when he suddenly noticed something.
"Ah." He found a familiar figure in the crowd.Liesel waved his hand, and the other party's expression twitched for a moment, but he continued to walk forward.
Seeing this, Lieser stopped waving her hand gracefully, and instead beckoned him to come over.The man stopped and pointed to himself.
Even though he felt that the other party wanted him to deny it, Liesel nodded leisurely.
"Please sit down." "...No, I feel like I will be killed by the leader." The man walked into the coffee shop resignedly, and Lieser asked him to sit in the opposite seat, but was refused.
In this way, he sat next to the seat indicated by Lieser. Although it was at a different table, he sat diagonally across from Lieser.Seeing that he chose a position where it was difficult to tell whether the two knew each other, the clerk was a little confused, and Lieser helped him order drinks with the clerk, and ordered sparkling water without authorization according to the impression the other party gave him.
"I'll pay for it." "No, I ordered it for you without authorization." "No, really please let me pay." The man shook his head seriously.If the man who led his group knew that he had invited Liesel to treat him, he didn't know what would happen, just thinking about it made him afraid.
The man actually paid the clerk who brought the drink.Wouldn't it be better to let him order his favorite drink?Lieser looked at it and thought, but it seems that sparkling water is completely acceptable to him.The man didn't use the straw inserted in the cup, and directly drank the beverage in the glass.
"Are you the one who is in charge of monitoring me today?" "Well, that's right." His eyes were covered by bangs, so he couldn't see the face under the bangs at all, and his clothes were completely different from last night.But you can't be wrong, this is one of the characters that Liesel saw last night, and he is a member of the bandit group led by Irevan.
It was not in vain to write down their faces last night, Lieser smiled and closed the book.If he hadn't met, he would have no way to find out, this surveillance is so invisible.Lieser is really envious, his tracking skills were only disgusted by Jieer last night.
"Thank you last night, did you get enough sleep?" "That's what you're worried about. It's okay." Lieser didn't take the adventurer's matter to heart at all, even the thief was startled, the man thought to himself .This person has an elegant temperament and a gentle appearance, but it is impossible to be a sage and gentleman in terms of heart.
"No, let's not talk about this. Is there anything you want to ask me?" "I found the person in charge of surveillance for the first time. I was so happy that I couldn't help calling you over." In other words, Rissel said with a happy expression.Really or not, the man looked at Liesel.
"And..." At this moment, the man's narrowed eyes and smiling lips locked his gaze for an instant.A certain feeling changed the atmosphere of the audience, and he almost forgot that this was an unusual balcony.
Next, no matter what you are asked, you are not allowed to lie, otherwise it is an unforgivable crime.This space made people believe so, but after Lieser smiled brightly, it disappeared immediately.If it's intentional, it's really bad, the man thought.In this way, facing Lieser, he would not be able to pass the level in a daze.
"It's a rare opportunity. I would like to ask you to talk about your leader's affairs." "...What is it?" "Everything is fine. The latest behavior is also good, or you have become a little better, or something like that." What? Possibly, the man's face twitched.It seemed that there was little hope for the latter, Liesel laughed amusedly.
According to Liesel's understanding, Irevan should not have been involved in thieves activities recently.Even so, he still can't be called a good boy. I don't know if he has done something bad, or it is essentially too late.
By the way, the man put on a calm face on the surface, but the cold sweat in his heart has already flowed into a waterfall.If this conversation will determine whether Irevan can join the team, according to the content of the answer, his head will really be lost.
"Don't worry, just tell me what he really looks like." Liesel said as if he saw through everything, urging him to speak.The man shook the glass, chose his words carefully, and then opened his mouth as if giving up.
"Ah... since a few days ago, his attitude towards you has changed. But I think, you should know about this." It probably refers to the day when Irevan dug his own grave and was warned by Liesel.It seemed that the other thieves didn't know what happened that day, but that was only natural.His eyelids were swollen like that, there was still a way to hide the truth, Lieser couldn't help admiring him.
The man watched his reaction, and continued speaking while watching Lieser's face.
"From then on, he watched you more like a guard." "Guard?" "Ah...no, it's just that he said that he doesn't want to see anything trouble you." In fact, Iraven's The wording was even more outrageous, but he only abridged what he judged to be convenient for disclosure.Lieser's pupils looked at him, and the man thanked the bangs that obscured his vision, while keeping his gaze away.
"What about yesterday? I'm wondering if it's too casual to leave this matter to him." "No, he looks happy instead." The man poured the glass while talking, and the bubbles Throat throbbed, and the mind became clearer.
"Recently, he's been thinking about how to join the team. Yesterday he was simply trusted by you, so he felt happy." "It sounds like you've known him for a long time." We got to know each other in time." At first glance, Irevan seemed to express all his emotions frankly, but in fact they were often all disguises.Being able to tell how this kind of person is feeling means that you have been with him for a while.
"(It seems that he used it and threw it away, and used it separately from another group of elites?)" Lieser began to think about Irevan's performance recently and what the young man in front of him said.I thought I'd have to wait a little longer, but the time is almost here.While tasting the black tea, he pondered leisurely.
"I'll ask you another question." "Yes?" Maybe it was to save myself a way out when Irevan witnessed it at this moment. The man pretended not to know him, and only looked at Liesel again when he heard Liesel speak. to him.
"What would you think if, apart from you elites, I killed a large number of subordinates at the bottom?" Would you hate me?Liesel said with a smile.This topic seems too sensational from that face, the man thought so, that's all.Other than that, no words came to his mind, not even mood swings.
"Well, those are just used and thrown away anyway." Although his words and deeds conformed to common sense at first glance, this man was still a thief through and through.He spoke lightly, as if talking about the weather casually, and Liesel could clearly feel this.
"It's better to say that if I can be killed by you, mere minions should be proud." In such a short period of time, the impact on myself was really significant, and the eyes of the man's bangs were peeking at Li. Searle's look.
Seeing Liesel smiling leisurely at him, he seemed to vaguely understand why the leader was so obsessed with this person.When his expectations were met, those eyes turned to him in admiration, and the sense of satisfaction brought by that moment was really incredible.
"Shall I do it?" "No, it's not necessary." The man forced his thoughts to stop, and asked Lieser.Lieser shook his head, and then suddenly spoke to the crowd passing by the balcony.
"Excuse me, excuse me." "Yes, are you calling me?" Liesel called to the man who was wearing a military police uniform.
The gendarme approached in a little confusion, but the thief didn't waver at all, still drinking sparkling water.For him, this is clearly a natural enemy, and his courage is really extraordinary.Lieser smiled and turned to face the gendarme.
"I saw you a lot today." "Ah, don't worry, a lot of people have been dispatched, but there is no danger." The reason may be the incident that happened at the Chamber of Commerce this morning.Perhaps it was because the guild requested the assistance of the gendarmes. The gendarmes were going around to confirm the victim's shop. There were so many people that there was no need to look for them. Just sitting on the balcony and waiting could stop the passing gendarmes.
"May I ask if the Gendarmerie Chief also came out to assist in the confirmation?" "?...Well, who is it referring to?" Why do you ask?The gendarme asked puzzledly, and Liesel lightly touched his lips in thought.
"Well, I don't know his name...he is a very serious person, but he doesn't know what to do. He doesn't seem to be good at dealing with the world, and he has a strong sense of justice." Freeze in place.
The reason why he was stupid was because he accurately associated a specific person.Is it really good to judge who the other party is referring to from this description?The gendarme's gaze wandered for a while, and after he had made up his mind, he replied in the affirmative.Liesel smiled at him after listening.
"Is he nearby?" "Yes, the confirmation business is done at the store in front." "So, can I trouble you to invite him over?" The gendarme was stunned.
If it's a normal situation, just reply with "we'll come back after we're done business" at this time.But the noble and extraordinary person in front of him, even though he asked a question, never thought that he would be rejected.
His appearance, posture, words and deeds seem to be a real nobleman, but recently, rumors of "adventurers who resemble noblemen" have often been heard.If he is that adventurer... No, no matter what his status is, wouldn't it be good to call the Gendarmerie Chief over anyway?There is really no way to reject this person.No, no, as a military policeman, at this time you should...
"Should I call him over right now?" the gendarme asked tremblingly after thinking for a while, and Lieser tilted his head in disbelief.
"Can't you?" "No, I can't say it's not possible..." "Just tell him that he knows the adventurer who knows Viscount Ray, and he should know." "Go right away!!" Hearing Lieser move out For the unreachable existence of "Viscount", the military police immediately rushed to find someone.
He had long since had no intention of doubting whether this person really knew the Viscount, or rather, he had no doubts about it at all.It seems that he must have misheard when he said adventurers.The gendarme convinced himself so, and ran away, while Lieser watched him run away while drinking black tea.
"Oh, it's really amazing to actually know the Viscount." The male thief said this, and it was impossible to tell from his tone whether he was really admired or not.
"When you were in charge of tracking, I also talked to the Viscount, right?" "It was far away at that time, so I couldn't hear the conversation—" the man stopped in the middle of speaking.
Logically speaking, Lieser would not have known that he was the one who was in charge of monitoring at that time, after all, even if someone was usually watching, he didn't realize it at all.But it didn't feel like a deliberate cliché, and there was no sign of Lieser trying to test the opponent's reaction at all.
It feels refreshing to be completely played with in the palm of your hand.
"Ah, here we come." Lieser, who was looking at the crowd, suddenly raised his head.
"Sorry to bother you when I'm busy." "You called me over, you're just an adventurer...! No, you're an adventurer... no, you're...!" I'm sorry to be so messed up." The Gendarmerie Chief ran all the way over, panting a little, as if desperately trying to say something.Lieser showed him a warm smile, handed out black tea, and asked him if he would like to drink some after taking a breath.But the Chief of Gendarmerie immediately put out his hand to stop him, saying that he is on duty now, and he really deserves to be a decent person.
Since I invited him over when he was halfway through his work, let's finish the important things as soon as possible.Liesel thought so, and looked up at the Chief Gendarmerie who was grumbling but standing upright.
"I have something to ask the Viscount, and I would like to ask you to make an appointment. Can you tell the Viscount that I hope to meet him as soon as possible?" "This... no, people of my status don't have much chance to meet with him..." "Are you going to report on this business?" Although he is the Gendarmerie Chief, overall, his status is definitely not high-level, and it is impossible to report to Rey in person.Even if he told the truth to the chief of the gendarmerie, he didn't know whether the other party would respond.
"I'll tell the chief, that's fine." "Thank you." However, the Gendarmerie Chief was sure that not only would it be impossible for Rey to refuse this request, but he would welcome it with pleasure.That being the case, it is not up to you to judge yourself.After some distress, he nodded in agreement.
Although he is serious, out of the question and not good at dealing with the world, he is not a person who does not know how to adapt.
"Is it okay to take the answer to the previous hotel?" "I'm sorry for your trouble. You have worked hard." Liesel comforted.Although the Chief Gendarmerie hesitated for a moment, he returned a salute and left.
Lieser looked at the energetic figure and confirmed that he was out of sight before looking back at the thief.
"That's what happened, please tell him to come to me tomorrow morning." "Well, if our leader is turned away by you, it will be troublesome." "Then it's up to you whether to go to the appointment or not." Decide for yourself." He will definitely attend the appointment.The thief thought so, and agreed as if giving up.The options given by Lissel do not have the so-called right to choose, after all, he already knows how the other party will choose.
"It's almost time for me to leave." Lieser took a sip of the cold black tea and stood up.
Anyway, he wasn't his companion, the male thief was still sitting in his seat, watching him get up casually.He thought Liesel was going to leave, but he saw him standing at his desk, is there anything else?The man was just about to drink up the sparkling water in the glass when he stopped suddenly.
The glass that was about to be brought to his mouth was suspended in mid-air, and he saw that noble face gradually leaning towards him, his body immobilized as if being pinned.
"You probably mean what you said. But..." The glass was still in the man's hand, and Liesel slowly took the completely unused straw in the glass.The slightly tilted face, the lowered eyelids, and the slightly exposed teeth when he opened his mouth to hold the straw, were really close to the man's eyebrows.
Illustration p267 He heard a slight swallowing sound in his throat, and stared blankly at the man who opened his lips slightly, let go of the straw, and watched the straw that had lost its support sway in the cup.
"He won't kill you, absolutely not." Liesel smiled slightly, left these words and left.The thief couldn't say a word, and silently watched him leave.
Why?Because he understood the meaning of Lieser's words.Unfortunately, he was there, absolutely there.The male thief was ready to lose his life, he felt an extremely weak breath coming from behind.
Then an arm was placed on his shoulder, bright red hair appeared from behind him, the male thief turned his head to look at the man, his movements were as stiff as a malfunctioning magic tool.
"The relationship has become so good. Did I say you could talk to him?" "...No, he called me over." "You showed your face? Let that person see it? Just because we met last night? "Men are mentally prepared to die.
"Hey, don't be too arrogant to me." The man's voice was as low as a snake gliding across the ground, strangling his neck as if it had an entity.This feeling made him stiff again, in a different sense from before.
All he could rely on was Lieser's words just now.He really won't kill me, will he?Since you dare to say no, why don't you help me smooth things over before leaving?The male thief shouted in his heart, when Yi Raven's arm suddenly moved.
I never thought I would die in broad daylight.Iraven threw aside the man who was sighing so, snatched the glass, took the straw in his mouth, and sucked up the remaining third of the drink in one breath.
"What's the matter, he invited you to drink?" "Impossible." The empty glass hit the table with a crisp "knock".
The male thief watched Irevan's expression tremblingly.Those irritable pupils turned to him, there was no warmth in the eyes, and the long and narrow pupils were narrowed, making the man shake his head immediately, otherwise he would be so small.
