Sword and Magic and Taxi

Under the dim light, two young men in frivolous clothes were looking at Zhao Mai's car. They held cigarettes in their mouths, and the firelight flickered, reflecting the metal rings inlaid on their faces, two on their noses and two on their lower lips. Are there already such costumes and looks in this era? Zhao Mai frowned.

Hey, driver! One of the young men took a long puff of cigarette, pulled out the cigarette butt with his fingers, and spit out the remaining residue between his teeth. Do you have the keys to this car?

Yes, do you want it? Zhao Mai smiled: I won't give it to you, so you only have two options left. One is to try to grab it from me, and the other is to give up. thoughts.

Hey! Why are you so long-winded? You don't even let me have the pleasure of talking! After the young man was robbed of his words, he obviously didn't know how to speak. Two people came over, one facing Zhao Mai from the left and the other from the right.

Zhao Mai sniffed, and besides tobacco and body odor, there was another smell on the two people's bodies. He sniffed around and then said to the corner: Logan, what are you doing at the corner? Hurry up and pick up your pants and come out, there's going to be a fight over here!

The two young men looked at each other, then took a step back. Then he saw Wolverine Logan tugging hard on the zipper of his jeans and hopping on one leg as he came out of the alley. Mike? Your hair is completely bald! It's been a long time!

We haven't seen each other for a while. Are these two your people?

My people? Oh, no, you are wrong about this. Logan walked over and came between the two people. The two people were obviously a little afraid of Logan and gave way to both sides. what's going on?

Actually, I didn't figure it out either. Just now they asked me if I had the keys to my car... Forget it, I won't be so long-winded anymore. Do you two have any other opinions about my car?

No more! the two men replied in unison.

But Reserve Liang still bared his teeth and stared at the two guys, looking left and right. Zhao Mai and Luo Gen glanced at the dog, then sighed, raised their fists at the same time, and punched each of them. Only two overlapping crisp sounds were heard, and before the young man could react, he fainted and fell to the ground.

Reserve Liang licked his lips and yawned, wagging his tail to show that he was satisfied.

What are you doing here? Zhao Mai and Luo Gen said at the same time, then looked at each other and smiled. Let me talk first. Zhao Mai said: I'm here to visit a friend and talk to him about the wizarding world and sponsorship. What about you?

It's not a glorious thing to come here to help others collect debts after you owe a favor. Logan said: Actually, this matter has something to do with you. After we separated from the Army Department, I continued to track down the plague. Then I found a group of vampires. I was accidentally discovered by them, and they actually had many special effects weapons to deal with werewolves. Unfortunately, I was caught.

Suffer it... Now that Logan is standing in front of Zhao Mai today, the most important thing left is the process.

It's a good beating. But I'm not a werewolf, so I can always recover from my injuries, and they can't do anything to me. It's just that my blood has been drained several times, and it's not a pleasant feeling. Logan took out half of his body from his pocket. A thick cigar was placed in his mouth. Zhao Mai gave a thumbs up, with red flames jumping on his fingers.

Your spells are better. If I had your skills, I wouldn't be so miserable. Logan exhaled a breath of mist, and then said: Later, those vampires were killed and I was rescued. , so I owe a favor. I'm trying to think of ways to earn gold coins to repay the debt, and I'm a little frustrated. I'm not taking on a boring errand. The main thing is to go out and relax.

Come out? What does that mean?

An underground mercenary organization, there are many strange people, just like me. They gathered in a place called the Continental Hotel, which is a place worth seeing. Logan pointed at Baker Street 191 No., said: Your friend doesn't live here, does he?

Exactly. Now that we have encountered this matter, it would be better to find him and talk about it together.

Logan also nodded, and the two of them turned back together and knocked on the door of Newt Scamander's house again.

Gentlemen, what's the matter? Newt blinked and looked at Zhao Mai with a puzzled expression.

Newt, this is Logan; Logan, this is Newt, he's better at dealing with animals.

Newt? I'm looking for Mahan Scamander.

Oh, that was my father, he passed away, Newt replied.

Does he have a very old compass that never points north. It looks like this... Logan rummaged through his pockets and finally took out a crumpled compass from the last pocket. Paper. Sorry, this is the least likely place to put toilet paper. It's relatively safe.

On the paper was a sketch of a compass, a compass with graduations but no symbols, placed in an octagonal box with a lid. It seems that this compass has experienced many adventures, and the sketch clearly reflects the scars of impact, water immersion, and salt corrosion.

This is it. The news I got is that your father borrowed it from someone else and it has expired but has not been returned. Now I am here to get it back.

I do have such a compass, but I have never heard that my father borrowed it from someone. This thing has been in our house for a long time, as long as I can remember. Newt shook his head: I I can't give it to you, no... no...

There is no evidence that this thing belongs to someone else. Zhao Mai completed the sentence for Newt.

Don't look at me, I have nothing here. The mission I received is very simple. Get this compass back from Mahan Scamander. If there is no compass, beat Mahan to death. Logan looked at He looked at Zhao Mai and said: In my opinion, I didn't get the compass, and Mahan is dead. I don't care what happens next, but my mission is completed, right?

I think so too. Zhao Mai said to Newt: Okay, today's matter seems to be solved, but you have to think of a way, maybe there will be troublesome things in the future. If you need help If so, you can come to me and just send an owl.

Thank you, Mike, and thank you, Logan. Newt gave a rare smile.

Okay, the work here is done, how about the two of us find a small bar that is open for a drink?

Zhao Mai looked at the sky, and the first ray of morning light had already faintly appeared in the eastern sky: The one that's not closed? It's better to find one that opens early in the morning!

Damn, this time is not very good. Logan thought for a while and said, But I know there is a place that never closes!
