Chapter 606 595. Exposure of whereabouts
Street food stalls
Cagle. Coward bought a baked oatmeal cake piled high with pea puree and cheese, and the enthusiastic stall owner joked and sprinkled some herb crumbs on top of his scones, and there was free food in a tin bucket next to the booth The red cabbage soup, but the stall does not provide portable containers, unless you bring your own dining bucket, or borrow a few public wooden bowls from the stall owner in front of the stall, you can drink these free soups.
A large baked wheat cake with pea puree, a quarter of a wheat cake, with a layer of mashed pea puree and a layer of cheese on top, only needs fifteen copper plates.
If you want to add bacon or sausage, you have to pay the stall owner ten more copper coins.
This style of breakfast is very common in Bena City in winter. If you eat breakfast as late as possible, you can save Chinese food, and you can spend a long day with just one dinner.
As a demon hunter, Kagel Coward's business is not good this year. Fortunately, he took a few orders at the beginning of the year and saved a little money. Since the summer, the news of the Red Dragon Treasure is like a Like a depth bomb, it turned the peaceful city of Bena upside down, and almost all the most famous adventure groups and mercenary groups that were silent in Bena City took action, boarding a magic airship flying to Hailansa City, heading for Pag Los Mountains looking for the legendary dragon slayer.
Cagle. Coward somehow became a member of the treasure hunting army and went to Hailansa City at his own expense. Before winter, he took a magic airship from Hailansa City back to Bena City. bring back anything.
Having no income for nearly half a year, this is a big problem for Cagle. Coward's life has had a huge impact.
Because the rent has not been paid for half a year, the landlady has already rented that house to a young couple.
On the night of returning to Bena City, Cagle. Standing outside the yard, Coward saw the curtains in the bedroom shaking and thought that a thief had entered the house. He kicked open the locked door from the inside and stepped on the dirty long leather Boots rushed into the room, just in time to see two white striped chickens clinging to each other by the bedroom window, looking at Kagel in horror. Coward, the uninvited guest.
Then screams, fights, shouts, insults, and cries came from the house. The landlady's son happened to be a knight in the guard camp in the city of Pena.
Cagle. After Coper fiercely stabbed the young couple, he lived in the prison of the guard camp for half a month before leaving it.
A demon hunter like him who doesn’t have real estate can’t be regarded as a citizen of Bena City, but can only be regarded as a wanderer, so there are almost no human rights in Bena City.
Now because he has a bad record of trespassing on private houses, the housing rental union has drawn a big red cross on his name. At present, he can't rent a house in Bena City at all. Does anyone have friends or relatives who can turn to him? Stay in a cheap little hotel.
The main reason why he didn't leave Bena City was that only in such a big city could he receive some entrusted missions for demon hunters. Unfortunately, winter has entered the off-season for entrusted missions, Kagel. Coward has never been able to receive a serious entrusted task, basically he can only shrink in the hotel, the gold coins in his pocket slowly turn into silver coins, and he can only eat some cheap street food on the street every day, which is okay A sip of red cabbage soup can warm your stomach.
Cagle. Coward was standing on the side of the road, bending over to scoop out a bowl of red cabbage soup from a steaming iron bucket. A magic caravan was slowly passing by. The moment he raised his head, he just saw the pair of belts in the window. Black and purple eyes with a charming taste.
He was slightly taken aback, and subconsciously flashed in his mind that the woman in the car was so beautiful, she seemed to have been looking at him just now.
Cagle. Coward looked towards the magic caravan with the soup bowl in his hand, and saw the woman glance at him again through the rear window.
He wanted to catch up, but was stopped by the stall owner.
The stall owner pointed to Kagel. The wooden bowl in Coward's hand, said: "Leave the bowl!"
Cagle. Coward smiled apologetically, quickly drank the red cabbage soup in the wooden bowl, then put the wooden bowl back on the wooden stand beside him, turned around and strode across the crowd towards the magic caravan After chasing it, it was the time when there were the most people on the street, Kagel. Coward sprinted a few steps forward in the crowd, watching the magic caravan disappear into the traffic.
For the next few days, Cagle. Coward will wait in front of the scone stand in the morning, and after filling his stomach, he will watch the magic caravans coming and going on the street.
Several times the knights of the guard battalion saw him standing on the street and wanted to trouble him, but they had no choice but to give up in the end.
In the afternoon of the fifth day, Cagle. Coward had already used up his last bit of patience. He spit into the flower pond by the side of the road and wanted to go to the Mercenary Union to see if there were any suitable tasks for him.
He walked along this street to the crossroads, turned left along the sidewalk, and saw a carriage coming out of the alley on the left. A beautiful face was reflected in the glass window, except for the dark complexion. , everything else is perfect.
Cagle. Coward was so excited that he could hardly breathe. He strode towards the magic caravan. Seeing that the magic caravan was about to disappear into the traffic, he quickly jumped onto a magic caravan parked by the roadside. Caravan, threw a silver coin to the coachman, and hurriedly said to him: "Follow the magic caravan ahead."
…
Aphrodite has been in a good mood these two days. Bena City is at least ten times larger than Hailansa City, and there are many places to hang out.
Every morning, she rents a magic caravan to leave the hotel, and wanders aimlessly on the streets of Bena City. When she sees interesting buildings or novel places, she will stop the carriage, and then start the day from here journey.
Aphrodite didn't even know the name of this small square, but thought that the maze made of shrubs and low walls in the square seemed very interesting, so she stopped the coachman, threw a silver coin to the coachman, and held up her skirt, Walk briskly into the square.
In the city of Bena in winter, ladies always wear hoods when they go out.
There are many ladies wearing a veil like Aphrodite, so she doesn't look very special in the crowd. There are many people in the square, and many women stand outside the low wall of bushes, waiting for the children to come out of the maze. Drilled out from inside, everyone chatted lively together, the women were obviously not interested in this maze of low shrub walls, only a group of children kept running in from the entrance.
Aphrodite didn't go in, she just walked around the low wall of bushes, walking around casually.
The sun was shining brightly at noon, and the gusts of north wind still made the temperature of the square a bit low. Several children squatted behind the low wall. In front of them stood an older child, who was flipping through the pockets of the children one by one. Most of the children's pockets were empty, only one boy was clutching his pocket nervously. The older child looked over vigilantly. He bent down and opened the children's fingers, and found a few candies and Three copper plates.
"Give me back...Big Bad!"
The boy found that the candy and money in his pocket had been snatched by the older child, so he hugged the older child's leg desperately and refused to let go.
The older child reached out and grabbed the boy's blond hair, kicked him on the chest, then smiled triumphantly, and disappeared into the bushes.
The boy fell under the low wall of bushes, and the rest of the children scattered in fright, only the boy fell to the ground crying sadly.
Aphrodite was slightly taken aback, she stopped and walked up, squatting in front of the boy who fell to the ground, Aphrodite put her hands on top of the boy's head, stroked his hair lightly, and spoke to him Comforting: "You are a boy, no matter what happens, you can't cry like a girl. Crying has no effect except to make you look more miserable."
"Come on! Stand up, and I'll bring you back your candies and coins!"
The boy wiped away his tears and snot, and quickly got up from the ground. His right face was a little red and swollen, and there was a clear footprint on his chest.
Aphrodite held the boy's hand, led him slowly into the low wall, and said to him as he walked:
"Promise me, if something like this happens in the future, just stand up bravely and take back what you lost by yourself!"
Aphrodite just straddled two low bush walls, and from behind a row of low bush walls, she found the older child who was squatting under the low wall and peeling off sugar paper. The older child raised his head and looked at Afu in a daze. Rudy and the boy who was holding her hand thought it was an adult from the family.
The elder boy was as nimble as a rabbit. He wanted to pass through the low bush wall, but when he saw Aphrodite's eyes, he was stunned. He foolishly took the candy and three A copper plate was taken out and handed to the boy.
Aphrodite comforted the boy again, touched his head, turned around and walked out of the maze surrounded by low bush walls.
The boy also ran away grabbing the candy.
Only the older child was left standing there in a daze.
A few seconds later, the older boy came to his senses, shook his head vigorously, turned and ran away into the low wall of bushes.
These were all hidden behind the flower bed by Kagel. Coward saw it.
Is that... black magic 'charm'?
Cagle. Coward stared at Aphrodite with a puzzled expression. He wasn't sure what Aphrodite's identity was, but he knew that "charm" belonged to black magic. He guessed that he had met a black magician. The magician belongs to the kind of hidden person who can't see the light in the city of Bena, so he hid behind the wall with a face full of fear, and his eyes on Aphrodite became more curious...
