Lord of the Oasis - Chapter 814 - The Grand Finale (1)
Chapter 865: the mission thrown in front of him
“Your Highness, put on your coat. The Night is humid.”Abel, who had arrived later, noticed the quiet and sad atmosphere at the scene. He bowed and walked to Kant’s side and whispered to him.
“Yes.”Kant came back to his senses. He turned his head and glanced at Abel. He responded softly and nodded.
Abel carefully put on the sheepskin coat for Kant. Then, he retreated to the side.
“Bunduk, add more firewood to the fireplace in the room.”Kant raised his head and told Bunduk, “Go to the kitchen downstairs and get some.”
“Yes.”Bunduk nodded. Then, he walked to the fireplace to check the iron barrel that placed the firewood. When he found that there was not much firewood left, he threw the remaining firewood into the fire. He told Kant that he was going downstairs to get firewood.
“I’ll go with you.”Seeing that Bunduk was already near the entrance, Abel hurriedly said.

Bunduk was stunned and stood in place. After getting Kant’s permission, Abel first unlocked the door and walked out.
“Wait for me.”Bunduk picked up the metal barrel and followed him out of the door.
After the two left, only Kant and turubin were left in the room.
The firewood in the main hall was burning more and more vigorously, and the temperature in the room also rose.
After turubin sorted out his emotions, he took off his gloves. He said to Kant, “I’m Sorry, Your Majesty. I’ve made a fool of myself.”
“It’s okay.”Kant had an encouraging smile on his face. He waved his hand and said.
……
“The people of the supervision center haven’t found out where Jackie is hiding yet.”Trubin’s eyes became moist again, he said, “I really can’t believe that he would do such a thing. Maybe I shouldn’t have adopted him seven years ago.”
After hearing Trubin’s words, Kant fell silent.
In the world that he had experienced in his previous life, it had become the consensus of everyone not to interfere with other people’s lives. People were originally insignificant. It was very difficult for them to interfere with other people’s destinies when they were receiving the blessings of God.
Before coming to this world, Kant had always had the attitude that ‘Other People’s matters have nothing to do with me’. However, after coming to this world with the memories of his previous life, his values were gradually loosening.
Perhaps he didn’t know himself as well as he had imagined.
“Those bastards who bullied Jackie have already been sent away by me,”Turubin said angrily. “I absolutely can not let such people continue to stay in the inn.”
“Yes.”Kant nodded slightly. “They deserve this kind of result.”
“Your Highness, we are back.”Bunduk, who was carrying half a barrel of firewood, and Abel, who had accompanied him, stood at the entrance and greeted Kant.
“Come in quickly.”Kant waved his hand and said, “It should be quite cold outside.”
“It is indeed a bit cold.”Bunduk put the Iron Tong by the fireplace, rubbed his hands and replied.
“When we went downstairs, we found that many of the guests’rooms were still lit by candlesticks. I guess everyone didn’t Sleep well tonight,”Abel reported.
“The waiter in the kitchen told me that this month’s firewood had been used up in advance. “He said that we should take the opportunity to store more firewood. “We have to make it through the last two days.”Bunduk grinned. “Then, I ordered the soldier who was still awake to go to his place to get firewood.”
Abel quickly gave Bunduk a look, indicating that the owner of the inn was still here.
“Oh, OH, no.”Bunduk covered his mouth and quickly explained, “The waiter told me…”
“It’s my fault that the people under me didn’t take the initiative to tell me when something happened,”turubin interrupted Bunduk’s clarification and said.
“We still have to find a suitable candidate to replace the position of the cashier,”Kant tried to smooth things over. “Otherwise, if these waiters encounter any trouble, I don’t know who to talk to.”
“I usually don’t pay much attention to the people in this inn. Fellett has always been busy with hiring people. Where can we find a suitable candidate now?”Trubin said in distress.
The four people in the main hall fell into deep thought, and the atmosphere became quiet again.
“Boss, we have been staying in this inn for quite a long time.”Kant suggested, “Otherwise, we will pay more attention to you in the following days. “See if we can find a candidate?”
“Okay,”Trubin agreed. “Sorry to trouble you. I Won’t stay in this town for more than a few days. I will leave for the city the day after tomorrow. I wonder how long you will stay in the Inn?”
“We have a mission. After the mission is over, we will leave the island.”Abel thought for a moment and answered, “I think we will stay for at least half a month.”
“That’s Great.”A rare smile appeared on Trubin’s face. Kant and the others were willing to stay and give some support to this inn. From the bottom of his heart, he was very touched.
“If boss will come back before then, I think we will give reliable advice,”Kant promised.
“Okay.”Trubin nodded. “Then I will take my leave first. I am really sorry to disturb you in the middle of the night.”
Kant stood up to send him off. “Boss, you still want to stay in this town for two days, right? If there’s anything you want to say, we still have a chance to continue chatting.”
“Yes.”After being courteous for a while, Trubin left the guest room under the watchful eyes of the three people.
“This is troublesome. We haven’t even found the person we want to find. Now, we also have to find a cashier for this inn,”Abel said as he walked back to the main hall and leaned on the tea table dejectedly.
“What’s The Big Deal? Is It suitable for business? This point is very obvious in terms of a person’s temperament,”Bunduk said nonchalantly.
“You have to choose this person carefully. At least give the boss an explanation.”After leaving these words, Kant turned around and left.
When Abel went to look for him, Kant was changing his bathrobe and preparing to go to bed.
After talking with Trubin for a while, Kant was extremely sleepy. He would probably sleep until noon the next day.
“His Majesty has returned to his room.”Bunduk yawned and said, “Let’s talk about picking people tomorrow. I have to go and rest too.”
“That’s fine too.”Abel waved his hand at Bunduk and said, “I’ll let you go and rest now. When I Wake You Up Tomorrow, you have to get up willingly.”
“Alright.”Bunduk did not hear what Abel said at all, but simply agreed.
Chapter 866: soldier who smells good and sells his skills
Abel looked at Bunduk’s departing figure and sighed. He began to stay up all night and work hard alone.
At noon the next day, Kant woke up from his sleep. When he walked out of the bedroom, he found that the main hall was empty.
“Have the two of them gone to patrol?”Kant muttered in his heart. Then, he walked into the bathroom and washed up.
Just as Kant was lying in the barrel filled with hot water and enjoying his leisure time, the sound of footsteps came from outside the bathroom door.
Before Kant had any thoughts, Abel’s voice came in.
“Your Majesty, we are back from that guild! Michelle brought reliable news!”
“When did you go?”Kant jumped out of the water tank and shouted towards the door, “Wait for me to go out first.”
“Yes!”Abel’s mood was very high.
After putting on his cotton-padded jacket, Kant opened the bathroom door and walked out. The heat in the room immediately retracted when it came into contact with the cold air outside the door, forming a white gas that lingered at the door.
Kant glanced at the two people sitting at the tea table drinking afternoon tea.
After walking into the tea table, Kant pointed at the pastries on the table and asked in puzzlement, “These were sent by the waiter?”
“We didn’t trouble them. These were brought by the two of us to the kitchen.”Bunduk drank a mouthful of tea and said indifferently.
Looking at the two people’s smug look, Kant raised his eyebrows and sat down in his seat, he said, “You did well. You found a candidate so quickly. You even completed the mission. Tell me, how did you do it?”
“Actually, it’s nothing. I just suddenly remembered that a soldier in the team is good at smelling.”After seeing Kant take his seat, Abel immediately sat up straight, he explained, “Let their captain take him to the streets near the guild to perform.”
“The guild found them just like that?”Kant was amused by Abel’s idea and asked.
“Yes.”Abel couldn’t help but show a proud expression, he continued, “After the name of the soldier spread in that street, the members of the Guild also noticed the existence of the group of people who perform. They immediately rushed over and told the soldier that they would invite this soldier to meet with the boss of the Guild at noon tomorrow.”
“HMM, your idea is really convenient,”Kant praised.
The guild was secretly involved in drug trafficking. Finding a talented person like the entertainer soldier, the content of the conversation was most likely related to the hidden production chain.
“I was just lucky,”Abel replied embarrassedly.
“By the way, what’s the name of the Soldier?”Kant raised his head and asked.
“Michelle!”Abel replied.
“Can he handle the meeting tomorrow?”It was not until now that Bunduk interrupted.
“This…”Abel’s face showed a hesitant expression.
“Although it’s good to be able to smell the fragrance, I told you at that time to choose someone suitable for dealing with strangers.”Kant’s words were also filled with a trace of worry.
“That child…”Abel glanced at Bunduk, “His temperament is more lively than other elven soldier’s. “However, after hearing about the sinking of the ship, this child’s temperament became much quieter. “Today, I sent a group of them to the vicinity of the guild. I didn’t really listen to him during the entire journey.”
“The impact of the sinking of the ship…”Bunduk’s expression also became complicated. He raised his head and turned his gaze towards Kant.
Under the gaze of the two people, Kant was silent for a moment. Finally, he said, “No matter what, we still have to think about how to carry out this plan. Abel has made a good start. The rest needs everyone to work together.”
“Yes,”Abel and Bunduk answered in unison.
“After dinner tonight, arrange for Michelle and I to meet,”Kant thought for a moment and requested.
“Okay,”Abel agreed.
After having afternoon tea, Bunduk and Abel left the inn. Today, many soldiers escorted the inn’s guests to the city gate, so they had to rush to the streets to patrol.
Kant walked to the restaurant on the second floor. After passing through the lonely cafeteria, he arrived at the restaurant that ordered dishes.
The chef who made lunch for him yesterday greeted him, “Good afternoon, Lord!”
“Hello!”Kant replied with a smile, “Why are there so few people today?”
“Those people didn’t want to stay in the inn. After breakfast, they went to the street to stroll around.”The chef smiled humorously, “But to me, it doesn’t matter. “Anyway, not many people come to my place.”
“I think they just haven’t tried it. If they tried it once, they would definitely be fascinated by your cooking.”Kant blinked and said, “Just like me and your boss.”
“Well… Hahaha.”The chef’s face was wrinkled at first, as if he was imagining the scene Kant had mentioned. After a while, he laughed heartily and said, “Thank you. What do you want to eat today?”
“The same as yesterday.”Kant sat down by the window. After looking at the scenery in the sky for a while, he turned his head and asked the chef who was busy in front of the stove, “Didn’t the boss come here today?”
“The boss went out very early, but I prepared his breakfast.”The chef raised his head and said confidently to Kant, “Fresh shrimp, vegetable roll, and peanut paste.”
“Hehe,”Kant laughed and said, “The boss has really worked hard. He has to go out to work every day.”
“The boss’s daily routine is indeed quite irregular. After all, he is the one who has to worry about this inn.”The chef cut the saintly virgin fruit in half, he replied, “However, fortunately, his body is still pretty good. As long as he adjusts his daily routine, he is no different from other people of the same age.”
“Actually, the inn has been running well before we arrived,”Kant said softly, “Why didn’t the boss give himself more time to rest?”
“Hehe.”The chef laughed softly, “Lord, look at the street in front of the inn. How many people will pass by? The boss came to the island ten years ago and opened the inn in this place. His heart is not in running this shop.”
“You see it quite clearly.”Kant raised his eyebrows and said, “Are you interested in telling me more details?”
The chef smiled and raised his head. He looked at Kant and shook his head. He put his left index finger on his lips and said, “People like us can’t talk about this kind of thing.”
Chapter 867: Clues left by the chef
“Hehe.”Kant looked away and said, “It’s fine if you don’t want to talk about it. But I think the people in your small town are really unfathomable.”
“There’s no such thing.”The chef put down the cook and explained, “Just like me. In front of you, Lord, I’m just a common chef. Then, isn’t my identity just a chef?”
“I can’t be bothered with you.”Kant only felt that this chef’s words were very interesting. If he argued with him about any topic, he would definitely be tricked by him. So, he waved his hand and continued to enjoy the scenery outside the window.
The chef chuckled for a while, and then he automatically stopped talking.
After more than ten minutes, the delicious and delicious lunch was served on the table. When Kant was arranging the napkins, he found that the chef had brought another cup of peanut butter.
“I spoke too much just now.”The chef stood at the table and apologized with a smile. “This cup of peanut butter is my apology to Lord. I hope Lord can forget my mistake.”
“No, no need.”Kant quickly declined. “We had a good chat just now. Why are you doing this?”
After hearing this, the expression on the chef’s face became serious. He said, “This peanut butter is our boss’s favorite and my favorite. Please accept it.”
Kant raised his head and looked at the chef for a while. Finally, he compromised and nodded. “Okay, then let me try what this taste is.”
“I’m very grateful.”The chef heaved a sigh of relief. After bowing, he left the table.
After watching the chef leave, Kant picked up his knife and fork and began to enjoy the first meal of the day. When eating, one’s mood was always happy. During the break, Kant caught a glimpse of the peanut butter placed in the corner of the plate.
Under the contrast of the silver cup, this simple drink became mysterious and luxurious.
“When do you drink this?”Kant asked softly as he looked at the open stove. In the end, he found that there was no one there. The chef had already left.
Kant raised his eyebrows in surprise. His right hand could not help but hold the handle of the cup. He brought the peanut paste that the chef had given him to his face, put it to his lips, and took a sip. The taste was rich and fragrant, the peanuts were finely ground.
Kant drank the entire cup of peanut paste in one go. When he put the empty cup back to its original position, a crisp sound was heard by Kant’s ear.
A key was placed on the coasters that were placed on the cups.
Kant’s eyes immediately became alert. This key must have been left behind by the chef. However, why did he invite him to meet him in such a secretive manner?
“This peanut milk is our boss’s favorite and also my favorite. Please accept it.”What the Chef said not long ago was reflected in Kant’s mind.
“Is it about the inn owner?”Kant took a deep breath and silently put the key into his sleeve. After confirming that there was no one around, he left the restaurant in a hurry.
After leaving the restaurant, Kant stood at the staircase and hesitated for a while. He decided to go back to his room first and reorganize what had just happened.
It was about 3:30 in the afternoon. Kant closed the curtains in the main hall and sat down at the tea table. He took out the key from his pocket and began to study it carefully.
The key was made of copper and iron, and it was now covered in rust. It was impossible to predict that he would go to the dining room to eat lunch today. Moreover, Kant had never seen the chef leave the stove during the time between ordering and waiting for the dishes to be served. The chef carried this key with him. In such a humid environment like the kitchen, it was indeed easy for it to rust.
The key was engraved with the three numbers ‘503’.
But this inn did not have a fifth floor. Where did ‘503’refer to?
Kant carefully recalled what the chef said in his mind. During the conversation, he did not leave any information about the time of the meeting.
“This room…”Kant, who could not find any clues, was ready to ask for the answer himself.
At this time, a knock came from outside the door. Kant was so frightened by the sudden sound that he stopped breathing. He answered vigilantly, “Who is it?”
“Your Majesty Kant, I am Moliere.”A sharp voice came through the crack of the door.
“Moliere?”Kant recalled for a long time in his mind, and then he remembered that the owner of this name was the dwarf who had publicly argued with him in the lobby yesterday. He stood up and asked, “What’s the matter?”
“The group of people who attacked the hotel yesterday, I don’t know what kind of connections they had, but they were released today,”the dwarf explained loudly.
“Wait, come in and talk.”After hearing this, Kant quickened his pace, walked to the front of the entrance, opened the door of the guest room, and greeted the dwarf in front of him.
“Thank you.”The dwarf immediately walked into the guest room, sat down at the tea table before Kant, picked up the teapot, and guzzled. After catching his breath, he wiped his mouth, he continued to say to Kant, who was sitting opposite him, “That group of people was really too impudent. After being released by an acquaintance in the monitoring institute, they immediately went to a tavern on Collin Avenue. “Coincidentally, they met the soldier who escorted the guests out of the city. Two groups of people picked up their weapons and fought.”
“What happened? who made the first move?”Kant said with a frown.
“Uh, this…”. The ORC man’s words were too harsh. He even made a comment about the family members of the CARADIA soldier. “So one of us couldn’t help but make a move.”The dwarf observed Kant’s expression, he explained.
“Where are they now?”Kant let out a long breath and asked.
“They were taken to the monitoring station by the soldier of the Acropolis on the street.”The dwarf said, “This is why I came to look for your highness. You have to hurry over.”
“You have been schemed against. I can not personally take part in this matter. Otherwise, I will fall into their trap.”Kant calmed down and said, “Does Bunduk and the others know about this?”
“Yes. After hearing the news, Bunduk and Lord Abel are rushing to the monitoring station.”After hearing Kant’s deduction, the dwarf was stunned, he replied, “Your Highness, if you don’t go personally, I don’t think you can settle this matter.”
Kant glanced at him, he slowly said, “I can’t be distracted by their tricks anymore. That orc man is cannon fodder for the dark side. “If you go and clean them up now, it will be like you want to cut down a tree but only care about sweeping the fallen leaves under it. “I have more important things to do now.”
“… I see.”The dwarf was frightened by Kant’s aura and nodded timidly. After a while, he left.
Chapter 868: the dispute in front of the mansion
After the dwarf left, Kant sat quietly for a while and then walked to the lobby of the inn. He found the waiter who was busy in the kitchen and asked, “Do you know where the chef who is responsible for cooking is on the second floor of the restaurant?”
“The chef is not resting in the inn. Lord, you didn’t find him in the restaurant. He probably went back to his home.”The waiter was stunned and answered.
“When will he come again?”Kant asked.
“This chef was invited by our boss from nowhere. He comes and goes whenever he wants. We don’t know either.”The waiter’s introduction.
“Alright, thank you.”Kant walked out of the kitchen with slight disappointment. After sitting in the tea seat in the lobby for a while, he finally decided to find room 503 in this inn during this period of time when he could not see the chef.
On the other side, Bunduk and Abel, who had rushed to the entrance of the monitoring station, coincidentally bumped into the bruised and swollen orc man and his group.
These seven or eight nomads took the initiative to walk in front of the two of them. The leading orc man frowned and said, “Why is it you? where is the one leading you?”
“You have stirred up such a small storm, but it is still not enough to reach the side of Your Highness’shoes.”Abel clenched his fists and said, “Go back to your cell and stay there!”
“With just you, you want to save your brothers? I’m afraid it is still not enough.”The ORC man shook his head and continued to say.
“Where are they now?”Bunduk asked.
“I don’t know. After all, we’ve only entered the temporary detention center here.”The ORC man giggled at the people beside him and mocked, “What kind of scenery is this prison? We’ve never seen it before.”
“I told you to get out of the way!”Abel kicked the orc man’s waist, causing him to retreat a few meters.
“Abel, let’s Go!”Blue veins popped out on Bunduk’s forehead. After enduring for a while, he said to Abel.
Seeing the two people leave, the other nomads gathered around the orc man and said indignantly, “These two people really need to be taught a lesson.”
“Our mission is completed. Let’s go drink.”The orc man put away his mocking expression, he said nonchalantly, “The more angry these two are, the faster we will reach our goal. There’s nothing to be bothered about.”
The Beastman left the monitoring station with the support of his underlings.
Abel and Bunduk were now overwhelmed by anger. They walked to the reception desk of the monitoring station, he asked, “We are the soldier and officer of Caradia. Our people were sent here by the city guards. We are here to bring them back.”
“You…”the staff member in charge of receiving them noticed the anger in their eyes. He timidly said, “Please Wait a moment. I will go find Captain Vermont. He brought them here with his team.”
“Okay,”Abel agreed. “We will wait for him here.”
The staff member quickly spread his legs and ran to a public office in the corridor.
Five minutes had passed. Bunduk and Abel stood motionlessly in front of the reception desk. The passers-by began to place their gazes on them.
“This person doesn’t look familiar. could he be a newly transferred staff member from this place?”A merchant who often walked around the monitoring station commented in a low voice.
“He seems to be a human and an elf. Judging from their clothes, he should be an outsider.”Another person in the crowd spoke up. “What are they doing here?”
“I just received news that today, on the road leading to the city gate, Bowen’s group fought with a group of human soldier,”a passerby said to his companion after hearing the discussions around him.
“Bowen?”His companion said in surprise, “Then these two people aren’t here to ransom people, right? Those who oppose Bowen don’t have a good ending.”
“If the Outsiders want to poach him from the monitoring station, they probably don’t have any news.”
Bunduk and Abel silently listened to the comments of the people around them. In their hearts, they snorted coldly and said, “Today, we have to take this person away.”.
At this moment, the waiter who had just left walked over with a half-beast man in uniform. He made an introduction to Bunduk and Abel. “This is Captain Vermont, who is in charge of handling this matter. He is a first-grade officer in the station.”
“Hello.”Fremont extended his hand to greet Bunduk and Abel.
“Hello.”Bunduk and Abel politely replied.
Fremont glanced at the surrounding crowd and suggested to Bunduk and Abel with a smile: “There are too many people and too many eyes here. Let’s go to the civil service office to discuss it in detail.”
“Okay.”Bunduk agreed.
The passersby who pretended to pass by unintentionally and eavesdropped on the conversation by the side felt bored and took the initiative to disperse.
Vermont led the two of them to a small public office on the first floor. The layout of the room was roughly the same as the one Abel had met with the Midget clan last time, but the space was much smaller.
After signaling for the two of them to take their seats on the leather chairs, Vermont placed his hands on the table and said to Bunduk and Abel, “You came here this time for the incident that happened this morning, right?”
“Yes.”Bunduk nodded.
“May I ask what the punishment method given to our soldier by the monitoring station is?”Abel asked.
“Imprisonment for three months. After all, the impact of this incident is quite great.”Fremont lowered his head and pondered for a moment, he then said, “The decision was made by the judge. In the monitoring station, the power of the judge far surpasses that of all of us. Therefore, even if you came here personally today, it’s probably impossible for you to take them away.”
“Three months? “Just for a group fight?”Bunduk said angrily, “What about that group of people? “They were just released today, and they deliberately found our people to take revenge. Why can they leave here without any responsibility?”
“This…”Vermont’s face showed a troubled expression as he explained, “These people were acquitted in yesterday’s case. So the judge only paid attention to their role in this dispute.”
“Acquitted?”Abel’s eyes widened as he said, “What About Fellett’s death? What about the injuries suffered by the guests? How were they acquitted?”
“Wasn’t the person who killed Fellett a waiter? Those guests didn’t come forward to testify, so the attack couldn’t be considered…”Vermont slowly explained.
“Bullsh * T!”Bunduk pushed the table aside, he roared at the officer in front of him, “I see that this monitoring station of yours is to exonerate those bastards. The Nomads on Your Island believe in this, but we don’t! Today, you have to hand them over!”
Chapter 869: Kant who appeared unexpectedly
Vermont frowned, he waved his hand and said, “In that case, I have nothing to say to the two lords. But I still have to remind you: since you are on this small island, you have to understand the rules of this island.”
After saying this, Vermont walked to the door and unlocked it. He turned around and continued to say to bunduk and Abel, “The two Lords, please go back first. Go and Ask Your Majesty if he will agree with your words.”
“Where is the prison cell?”Bunduk walked quickly to Vermont and asked aggressively.
Vermont looked at the human soldiers in front of him. His eyes narrowed dangerously and he slowly said, “You want to break out of the prison?”
“We will not let our soldier suffer this injustice in vain.”Abel walked to Bunduk’s side and called out to him, “Bunduk, let’s go back to the inn.”
“Abel!”Bunduk called out in confusion.
“I’m leaving.”After Abel lightly left these words, he lifted his leg and left the meeting room.
Bunduk glared at Fremont with dissatisfaction and followed Abel out.
The two of them walked straight to the gate of the monitoring station. At that moment, Abel stopped and turned to Abel. “You were too impulsive just now. You shouldn’t have said that to the officer in the station.”
“Didn’t we come here to bring the soldier back?”Bunduk frowned. “That officer didn’t take us seriously at all.”
“I also feel that his attitude toward us is very strange.”Abel shook his head, “Including when we met the orc man and his group at the door, their behavior was also very strange. Let’s go back to the inn first and Tell Your Highness Kant about what happened here.”
“Okay.”Bunduk turned his head and glanced at the sign of the monitoring station, silently spitting in his heart. Then, he left with Abel.
The location of the monitoring station was not far from the inn’s address. About ten minutes away, Abel and Bunduk rushed back to the inn.
After hurriedly walking up to the second floor, they knocked on the door and found that Kant was not in his room at the moment.
“Tindy, where is His Majesty?”Bunduk stopped a passing waiter in the corridor and asked.
“I just saw His Majesty Kant waiting in the lobby on the first floor.”The waiter called Tindy stretched his neck and looked downstairs. He replied, “I will help you ask the others.”
“Okay, please.”Abel nodded.
After Tindy left, the two walked to the third floor of the inn and searched for Kant.
This entire floor was rented to Caradia’s soldier by the boss. However, at this time, Caradia’s soldier did not stay in the guest room. Instead, he was patrolling the streets.
After the search was fruitless, Abel and Bunduk met at the stairs.
Looking at the stairs leading to the fourth floor, Bunduk looked at Abel in confusion. He said hesitantly, “Should we go to the fourth floor and take a look?”
“The fourth floor doesn’t seem to be open to the public.”Abel recalled the night when they searched for clues, and the inn’s attendant said that they wouldn’t be allowed to go to the fourth floor no matter what. He said, “Your Highness Kant probably wouldn’t barge into such a place. Let’s go ask Tindy and see if he has any news.”
“Alright,”Kant agreed.
Just as the two were about to leave this floor, Kant sneezed and walked down the stairs of the fourth floor.
After seeing the two of them, he greeted them, “Bunduk, and Abel. Why are you here?”
“Your Majesty!”Abel cried out in surprise, “Why are you here? We were looking for you. Why did you go to the upper floor?”
“It takes a long time to talk about this,”Kant said. “Let’s go back to the guest room first. “The fourth floor is closed, and outsiders are not allowed to enter or leave. If the inn’s attendants find out that I stayed there for a while, it will be troublesome.”
Bunduk walked forward and helped Kant to dust off his coat. He frowned and said, “How long has it been since anyone went to the upper floor? Your Highness, the Dust on your body is really thick.”
“We really can’t stay in that place for too long.”Kant took out his handkerchief, covered his mouth and nose, and coughed lightly for a while.
“In that case, let’s hurry back.”Abel glanced at Kant worriedly and said, “We also have an urgent matter that we need to report to His Majesty Kant.”
“Yes.”Kant nodded and agreed.
The three of them walked back to the guest room side by side and sat down at the tea table in the main hall. Abel immediately poured a cup of tea for Kant and urged, “Your Highness, this tea is to clear the lungs. You should drink a few mouthfuls first.”
“Mm, then I’ll listen to you while drinking the tea.”Kant nodded and held the Teacup in my hand. He said, “You’ve been to the inspection station, right? How’s the situation there?”
“The officer who received us told us that the judge’s decision in a case can not be changed. The soldier has to stay in prison for three months,”Bunduk replied.
“Mm, then have you met the soldier?”Kant asked after taking a sip of tea.
“No, that officer didn’t seem to have any intention of letting us meet the soldier.”Abel sighed, he said, “At that time, Bunduk and I were both in a fit of anger. Now that I think about it, perhaps the person he wants to meet isn’t us, but Your Majesty.”
“Your Majesty, Right now, only if you personally appear can we…”Bunduk looked at Kant and said seriously.
“I can not appear. The group of people who planned the attack was just to make me beg Gilbert or the leader of the Midget clan. When the time came, they would definitely interfere again, and our relationship with the Gnome and midget clan would be speculated. “It’s not good for the people who help us,”Kant replied calmly.
“Then what should we do now?”Bunduk asked anxiously, “There’s still no news about the soldier sent by Caradia. “With the strength of only a few dozen of us, it’s still too difficult to rescue the soldiers tied up in the monitoring station.”
“If this had happened yesterday, perhaps we could only accept our fate. “But now, we can bypass the barrier of the monitoring station and directly find the person behind the scenes who interfered with us.”Kant’s lips curled up into a confident smile, he promised the two people beside him.
“Your Highness, did you encounter a member of the Dark Side organization today?”Abel asked in surprise.
“Met? Not Really.”Kant paused for a moment and told Bunduk and Abel about what happened in the restaurant at noon today. Then he said, “In the end, I held the key and couldn’t find the chef himself, so I began to look for him in the inn.”
Chapter 870: thick smoke to fool people
“Is that room on the fourth floor?”Bunduk asked nervously.
“Yes.”Kant nodded, he said, “I heard that the original inn was originally a fifth-floor inn. However, after experiencing the racial war in the city, the various floors of the inn were damaged at different levels. The fourth floor was the most severely damaged, so the midget smiths in charge of repairing it planned to rebuild the fourth and fifth floors. However, this proposal was rejected by the inn owner, saying that he did not want the inn to appear too prominent on the entire street. He only requested that the fourth and fifth floors be renovated and merged into one floor. “Therefore, some rooms on the fourth floor still have the house number on the fifth floor.”
“I see.”Abel took a deep breath and sighed. “I didn’t expect it to be because of the war.”
“Then, why are the rooms on the fourth floor not open to the public again?”Bunduk asked in puzzlement.
“I also asked the waiter about this question, but he also said: he doesn’t know.”Kant shook his head and said.
“In that case, the truth about this matter should be the privacy of this inn, right?”Abel commented.
“But that waiter doesn’t seem to be pretending.”Kant recalled the tone and expression of the waiter in the hall when he answered him.
“Don’t worry about that for now.”Bunduk waved his hand and said, “Your Highness, what did you find in that room?”
“The inn owner is also a member of the Dark Side. The desk in that room is filled with all the travel records after we went ashore by the sea. In the folder of the bookcase, there are a lot of information about the members of the dark side that we haven’t seen before. “I found pick and Shadow in there,”Kant explained in a deep voice.
“How is that possible?”After hearing Kant’s statement, Abel’s heart almost jumped out of his chest. He blurted out, “The inn owner couldn’t have been framed, right?”
“When I ate with the inn owner before, I found that his habitual hand was left-handed. “This means that he is left-handed,”Kant replied. “The whole inn, including the cashier, the cook, the waiter, and so on. “He is the only one who is left-handed. Judging from the furnishings in the room, it is indeed for the convenience of left-handed people.”
“I don’t think we can make a conclusion right away.”After hearing Kant’s words, bunduk hesitated and said, “Let’s continue to investigate and compare.”
“You’re right.”Kant nodded and said, “But I still want to testify on the spot with the inn owner. Let’s end this quickly.”
“Okay.”Bunduk and Abel said in unison.
Kant took out a information form from his clothes. The portrait on it was of Pick.
“The inn owner will leave the town tomorrow. We must find him before then,”Kant said with a determined expression.
“Should we mobilize our own people to search the town, or let the inn’s attendant inform him?”Bunduk asked in puzzlement.
“You don’t have to worry about that.”Kant stood up and walked to the entrance. After hearing the footsteps and discussions outside the door, he said confidently, “We just need to wait quietly at the entrance of the stairs on this floor.”
“It’s on fire! It’s on Fire!”The waiter who was busy cleaning the streets threw his broom to the ground when he saw the thick smoke coming out of the window on the fourth floor. He rushed into the shop and shouted, “The fourth floor is on fire!”
The waiter who was busy in the lobby rushed to the outside of the shop and looked at the fire upstairs.
“What should we do?”The waiters asked the waiter who was standing at the front anxiously.
The waiter who was being watched by the crowd was Nate, who was temporarily appointed as the captain of the waiters.
Nate frowned. His position as the temporary captain was decided internally by the employees. And his performance during this period of service was crucial to whether he could be promoted to an accountant.
When such a thing suddenly happened, Nate could not help but panic. He called out to a young waiter beside him, “Quick! Quickly inform the boss! And you guys, follow me up to put out the fire.”
“Yes!”The waiter who was called out immediately nodded and agreed.
He followed Nate back to the inn and rushed up the rotating stairs with brooms and the like.
“Where are you guys going?”Bunduk who suddenly appeared at the stairs gave them a fright.
“Lord… Lord Bunduk, the fourth floor is on fire. I’ll bring people up to put out the fire,”Nate replied nervously.
“On Fire? The fourth floor is the boss’s private area, right? I’m afraid it’s not good for you to rush in like this,”Bunduk said worriedly for them.
“That’s true. We’ve never gone up there before. However, the situation is critical now, so we can only offend him,”Nate replied.
“Alright then. Do you need my help?”Bunduk nodded and continued to ask.
“No, no need.”Nate hurriedly waved his hand and said, “The fire isn’t too serious. Just the few of us will be enough.”
“Mm, that’s good. I Won’t disturb you.”After confirming that Kant, who was downstairs, had made a ‘yes’gesture to him, Bunduk silently let Nate and the others pass.
After watching the group leave, Bunduk walked down the stairs and sat down at the tea table where Kant and Abel were. He asked, “Has the messenger really set off?”
“Yes.”Abel nodded. He was the one who had to confirm this matter.
“Your Highness, you said that you set a fire on the fourth floor. You didn’t burn all the documents, did you?”Bunduk asked worriedly.
“No.”Kant waved his hand and said, “I just put a part of our information into the brazier and burned it.”
“That’s good.”Bunduk calmed down and said, “After all, we still don’t know who the owner of this room is.”
“Yes.”Abel nodded in agreement.
After a while, Nitte and the others carried the brazier down the stairs in a noisy manner.
With a thud, the Brazier, which had been burnt black, was thrown onto the floor tiles in the lobby. Nate looked around, he said angrily, “Who is it? ! Who Did this prank? If you are not satisfied with anything, you can just tell me directly. What is the meaning of this?”
He led his men and rushed upstairs. When he carefully walked into the room, he found a brazier, which was emitting black smoke, placed by the window.
Nate was completely enraged. In his eyes, the person who did this at this time was targeting him.
“If you have the guts to do it, why don’t you admit it? Come out and let’s fight,”Nate Roared.
Bunduk sighed softly, while Kant and Abel completely ignored Nate’s roar.
Chapter 871: The Exchange of hostages
Seeing that no one responded for a long time, Nate let out a long sigh, picked up the Brazier on the ground, and left the hall.
Kant put down his teacup and said, “It is indeed a bit too much to cause such a ruckus.”
The three of them sat near the edge of the door. In order to see Reuben immediately, dinner was also settled in the hall.
At about seven o’clock in the evening, the inn owner hurried into the inn and found Nitte, who was busy working at the counter, he asked, “How is it? The waiter who informed me didn’t explain clearly. which room is the room on Fire?”
“Room 502,”Nitte answered nervously. “The fire has been put out, and it was found to be a prank. Sorry, Boss. I asked you to make time to come back because of such a small matter.”
“Prank?”Turubin’s face became very ugly. He asked, “Have you checked the door lock? How did that person get in?”
“The door lock is intact,”nitte answered while recalling, “That person should have gone in through the window.”
“Are you sure?”Turubin stared at Nitte and confirmed carefully.
Kant, who was sitting at the door, felt that it was the best time for Turubin to shift his attention to him. He immediately said, “Boss Turubin!”
“Your Majesty Kant.”Turubin was stunned. When he turned around and saw that it was Kant, his impatient expression immediately became respectful. He glanced at the table in front of the three people and replied with a smile, “Why do the Lords want to eat in the lobby today?”
“There are too few people in the dining hall. The hall is more lively,”Kant replied indifferently.
“I see.”Trubin nodded and said, “I didn’t expect to see you again before going out. We are really fated.”
“Maybe.”Kant replied with a deeper meaning, “However, I have always believed that man-made strength is more reliable.”
Turubin raised his head slightly and met Kant’s gaze. After carefully sizing him up for a while, he said, “It sounds like King Kant has something to say to me?”
“Yes. Boss, please do us a favor and sit at our table for a while.”Kant nodded and said, “We have some matters that we haven’t decided yet, and we need to find you to confirm them.”
Turubin’s gaze turned cold. After noticing the change in the aura between the two, Abel and Bunduk quickly came over. They stood on both sides of Kant.
Turubin’s expression softened, and he said apologetically to Kant, “I’m Sorry, Your Majesty. Tonight, I have an engagement in the western district. I’m afraid I don’t have time to chat with you.”
After saying this, Turubin turned to Nate and ordered, “Tell the groom to prepare immediately.”
“Yes.”Nate had long sensed the strange atmosphere between the inn owner and Kant. After hearing the order, he left the scene as if he had been granted amnesty. He walked to the backyard.
“Boss, I’m afraid it’s not good for you to leave in such a hurry, Right?”Abel said with a troubled expression.
“The matters in the inn have been settled,”Trubin said seriously. “I’m leaving now.”
“Settled? Haven’t you found the culprit of the prank?”Bunduk asked indifferently.
“You…”Turubin clenched his fist and said, “Did you break into our room?”
“No, no. Absolutely not.”Kant hurriedly waved his hand, he took out the page of information from his pocket and said, “But this page floated in from the window of our room. I want to confirm with you, boss. Is this the thing in that room?”
Turubin subconsciously raised his hand, wanting to grab the page from Kant’s hand. The information that depicted Picker’s portrait was pulled into two halves. Turubin stared blankly at the half of the form in his hand. Then he raised his head to look at Kant and roared, “You bastard!”
Bunduk and Abel immediately stopped turubin, who had pounced in front of Kant, and forced him to half-kneel on the floor.
“Are you really a member of the Dark Side?”Kant took a deep breath and said. Although he had predicted this result, he was still in disbelief at the moment.
“So what if I am?”Turubin said disdainfully.
“What about the waiters in this inn? Are they also members of the Dark Side?”Kant asked.
“No. They know nothing about the forces in the town.”Turubin lowered his head and said, “So what if you found out my identity? Those children won’t believe you. You Can’t Take Me Away.”
“Aren’t you too confident about the forces on your side?”Bunduk leaned over to Trubin’s side and asked, “Now the dark forces are the common enemy of all nomads. As long as we hand you over to the monitoring station. The people behind you can’t Save You.”
“What do you want?”Trubin said angrily, “Nate! Nate! !”
“The waiters have gone to the second floor to eat. Nitte is probably helping feed the horses in the backyard.”. “Stop shouting.”Kant said indifferently, “Since the beastmen can come back from the monitoring station, you must be involved, right?”
“Yes.”Trubin nodded and answered.
“Well, ask your superior to let our men go. Then we will let you go.”Kant proposed a condition.
“So that’s why you’re here.”Trubin snorted. “Fine, I Promise You.”
Kant waved his hand, motioning for Abel and Bunduk to release Trubin. After trubin stood up, he raised his head and said to him, “It should be easy for you to contact the other members, right?”
“You don’t need to worry about that,”trubin said. “Actually, I don’t need to participate. You guys stay quietly for a few days. Your brothers will be released after receiving some corporal punishment at most.”
“Then we’ll add another condition. The soldier who is released can not receive any injuries. Otherwise, your life will still be in our hands.”Hearing this, Bunduk threatened fiercely.
“Hehe, this request of yours is a little beyond my ability.”Trubin shook his head indifferently and replied.
“This is one of the requirements. You’d better remember it.”Abel, who was at the side, said leisurely.
“Okay.”Turubin thought for a while and agreed. “But this matter requires me to personally go to the monitoring station. You Can’t restrict my personal freedom.”
“Yes, as long as Bunduk goes with you,”Kant said to turubin.
“Him?”Turubin questioned. “Are you kidding? This person is on the blacklist of the organization. Among the people above, the first one who wants to get rid of Is You, and the second one is him. You want me to take him?”
Chapter 872: Captain Heading to the mansion
“Of course not.”Trubin immediately denied.
“What if Bunduk is a surrendering?”Kant asked.
Trubin frowned, glanced at Bunduk, turned his head and replied, “You guys are really bold.”
“Is it beyond your imagination?”When Kant smiled, his eyes curved into crescent moons. His tone was so cold that it made people shudder.
“If this kid dies in the hands of the people of the organization, what should we do?”Trueben asked hesitantly.
Abel put his hand on Trueben’s shoulder and warned, “The soldiers of Caradia are not as weak as you think. Everyone has their own fate. Just don’t get involved.”
“Hehe.”trueben shook his head and said, “Do you trust him so much?”
“Cut the crap. Your carriage is here.”Kant immediately stopped talking when he heard the sound of horse hooves by the door. He told Bunduk, “Be careful on the road.”
“Yes.”Bunduk nodded.
The idea of accompanying Trubin to the monitoring station was thought up by the three of them during dinner. At that time, everyone was hesitating whether to send Bunduk or Abel. They could not make a decision.
Until Bunduk took the initiative to mention: if the members of the Dark Side confirmed the news to Trubin and believed that Bunduk was a traitor, it was very likely that they would call pick, who was staying in the city, over.
After all, before the person who cast the voodoo arrived, they still could not confirm the purpose of Bunduk’s arrival.
Kant and the others could then set up an ambush near the monitoring station. Intercept Pick, who had rushed over in the middle of the night. Find out the method to remove the GU poison from him.
“Boss, your carriage is ready.”Nitte stepped over the threshold and reported respectfully to Reuben.
“Okay.”Reuben agreed. Then, he led Bunduk to the door. They boarded the carriage.
“Lord Bunduk, this is…”Nitte looked at the backs of the two of them shoulder to shoulder and asked curiously.
“It’s quite late now, and it’s not very peaceful around the hotel recently,”Kant explained, “So I sent Bunduk to escort the boss.”
“I didn’t expect Lord Kant to be so worried about the boss,”nate replied gratefully, “Neither of us thought of this.”
“It’s nothing, it’s just that the current situation is quite special,”Kant said, “With your boss’s strength, one or two small thieves can be completely dealt with. “It’s just that bringing Bunduk along makes people feel more at ease.”
“Yes, yes,”Nitte answered. “Lord, do you still want to continue eating? I want the kitchen to prepare a few more good dishes.”
“No, no need,”Abel said. “We have some things to do, so we don’t need the kitchen staff to worry.”
“Alright then.”Nitte nodded. “Are you two going out?”
“Yes, we need to get the medicine for Bunduk,”Kant explained. “The shop two streets away. We’ll be back soon.”
“I see. However, I don’t know if the medicine shop is still open. How about I send the staff to ask around for you?”Nitte thought for a moment and suggested.
“No need. Let’s just treat it as a walk after dinner to digest our food.”Abel shook his head gently and replied, “After all, His Majesty Kant also said that he wanted to go out for a walk.”
“Yes.”Kant nodded.
“Then I Won’t disturb your elegant mood.”After that, Nitte did not say anything else and immediately bowed and left.
After Kant and Abel walked out of the inn, they parted ways at the entrance of the building on the street. One of them was in a hurry to inform the soldier who was patrolling the street, while the other rushed to the monitoring station at a leisurely pace.
When Abel walked to the front door of the monitoring station, he was still quietly worried about whether Kant would be able to call his soldier in time. Although the location of the patrol was planned by Kant himself.., but from the sensitivity of the soldier’s movements, Kant was relatively slow.
And the reason why they acted so separately was because of one thing: Abel’s disguise.
Abel’s disguise could not be considered the Orthodox version of disguise. The traditional disguise always needed to add or subtract something to a person’s face. And Abel’s disguise was developed by himself. The main method was to control the circulatory system in the body and make a person’s face change in detail. It could change a person’s temperament in a short period of time.
This method required that the person being cast was also a water mage.
As for Kant, let alone a water mage, even the title of mage was not close to him.
Therefore, in the current assignment of tasks, such a situation was formed.
Before walking through the door, Abel was still a strong soldier in his thirties. After stepping through the door, he had become a tired-looking politician in his forties. His aura was the same as the people walking in and out of the hall.
“Everything is going well,”Abel said proudly in his heart.
When he saw a waiter approaching him, Abel quickly restrained his expression. He blended in with the surrounding environment.
“You Are…”the waiter looked at Abel’s face and tried hard to recall. After making up his mind, he asked, “Captain Abel?”
“HMM?”Abel met the messenger’s gaze. A shrewd light flashed in his eyes. “Yes, it’s me.”
“AH, Captain Abel! You haven’t been here for a long time! “What brings you here?”The attendant was overjoyed. “Recently, it’s been Miss Fanny who has been running to the office. “I thought you had already handed over your position to her?”
“Fanny, she…”Abel paused and said, “How is it?”
“Miss Fanny?”The attendant did not expect that the special officer would come to ask for the opinion of an unknown attendant like him. In addition to being shocked, with a smile on his face, he replied, “Miss Fanny has a very good attitude toward the front desk staff.”
“Yes.”Abel nodded and didn’t make any unnecessary comments.
Judging from the enthusiasm of the attendant, he probably mistook him for a big shot with real power. Since things had come to this point, Abel had to put on the airs of a big shot.
“Lord Bernard,”the attendant said, “What brings you here this time?”
Abel glanced at him indifferently, remaining silent.
“I’m sorry, Lord. I spoke too much. Please Don’t blame me.”The attendant was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly explained, “I just want to ask, is there anything I can help with?”
“Where are those old guys? I want to see them,”Abel asked in a low voice.
“Are you asking… Judge Ethan and the others?”The waiter said in surprise.
