Fish is the most important island in the Fish Sau Islands, and the Kingdom of Ogu and the Kingdom of Sugajung are the two most important countries on the Fish Sau Islands.
Aier City is one of the four most important cities in the Sujajon Kingdom besides the capital. Maur is one of the many newsboys in the city. Maor did not sell newspapers today. He took a good job yesterday and someone promised him
A generous reward, 1 gold coin plus 20 silver coins per day, allowed him to find a person, or to be precise, to find clues to the person in the photo. It would be even better if he really found the person.
He was not the only one who received this good job together. Many of his friends had their photos sent by the mysterious thin man. They didn't believe it at first. Selling newspapers for a day rarely had the opportunity to earn as much as 20 silver coins.
They didn't believe it until the man carried two large baskets full of silver coins from a stone coffin.
Maur and his fellow newspaper sellers all got 20 silver coins. This mysterious boss was actually willing to pay first. They have been selling newspapers and flowers for so long, and they have never seen anyone pay first and then do the work. Xiao
The partners were very happy and worked hard to find people to inquire according to the area defined by the previous newspaper sales.
Of course, Maur was not far behind, because the mysterious man said that whoever can find the person or clues in the photo will receive a reward of 10,000 to 100 gold coins.
Oh my god, you can get 10,000 gold coins if you find one person. Even if there is only a very small piece of information, you can get at least 100 gold coins. A fourth-class official in his hometown, Leibshire, earns less than 100 gold coins per month.
If he could get 10,000 gold coins, or even 1,000 gold coins, he could build a small house in Deng Town, take his blind mother and brother out of the garbage dump, live in a dry and warm house, and open a small house of his own.
Mill, you can live a good life in the future.
Maur longed for such a day, hoping to be able to live a happy life and go to school like most ordinary people.
Seven days later, the silver coins in the two large baskets were all gone. The mysterious thin boss picked up his sarcophagus and left. Although he didn't find out anything about the person in the photo, he still brought a bag of gold coins to everyone.
Everyone was issued one.
Seeing the man carrying the coffin walking away in the alley, Maur suddenly chased after him. This was a life-changing opportunity. He could not lose the possibility of getting 10,000 gold coins. Even if the possibility was slim, he would use all his strength to seize it.
.If he loses this opportunity, he may be like the vast majority of beggars in this city, growing up alone and spending his whole life alone.
"I have been to more than a dozen counties. I have been to more than half of the counties in Sujiaqiong. I have also been to the Principality of Bolong. Can you take me with you? Wherever I go, I can quickly kill the local orphans and beggars.
Gather them together and mobilize them, and I won't charge you if they don't work."
The mourner looked at him, seeing the sincere eyes and eager mood of the young man, he nodded: "Just be my guide." He continued walking forward.
When they were about to leave the city, Maur couldn't help but asked curiously: "Shall we just keep walking? You have so much money, why don't you hire a car? Also, isn't it tiring to carry such a big stone coffin?
?”
The mourner stopped.
Maoer covered his mouth, raised his head and whispered: "Am I too talkative? I'm used to selling newspapers. I always have to talk to others. If I don't chat for a while, they won't buy..."
The mourner took off the white cloth money bag on his waist, took out ten gold coins and put it in his hand: "Go hire a car."
When Maoer saw the ten gold coins in his hand, his mouth made an 'O' sound, he responded with a smile, and ran to hire a car.
A cart was quickly hired, and it was pulled by an ox. However, the mourner did not get on the cart, and instead let Mauer sit in the cart.
"Aren't you coming up?" Maoer looked at him.
"I prefer walking." The mourner walked forward and said without looking back: "Walk quickly, don't drag your feet."
Maur really couldn't understand this strange coffin-carrying man, so he quickly caught up with him in a car: "I've never driven a car before, so I'm not very good at it."
"After a while, you will get it."
"Oh, I've surpassed you."
The mourner walked silently behind, his pace seemed slow, but no matter how fast the car in front ran, he always kept the same distance.
…
Nearly two months passed in a row, from last winter to this spring. Under Maur's guidance, the mourners moved from one place to the next.
As Maur himself said, he has been to many places. Although he only stayed in some villages and towns for a short time in the past, he has been a wanderer for a long time. Even in a completely unfamiliar place, he can quickly become familiar with and adapt to it, and quickly find local homeless people.
Those who return.
On this day, the mourners and Mauer arrived at a new place. Although it was already evening, Mauer still diligently searched for the local homeless people. After distributing photos and coins, he thought it was still early.
Also go to town and ask around.
There was a beast troupe performing in the town, and many people in the town gathered at the open-air venue in the north of the town to watch the performance. He found this place to ask questions, and found that several beggars and children had already come here holding up photos to ask questions.
He also took the photo and joined the questioning team, but most of them impatiently told them to go away.
As he asked, Maur noticed that an old ticket collector from the Beast Theater took the photo handed to him by the beggar and looked at it for a long time.
The beggar asked: "Do you know him?"
The old ticket inspector came to his senses and returned the photo: "I don't know him."
There are many similar people in the world. If you want to identify a person from a photo, you have to look at it several times. The beggar left disappointed, but Maoer was not disappointed. He was used to it. But he soon found the old ticket collector standing there.
He stood there in a daze, and after two or three minutes he disappeared into the crowd.
Maur was very observant, and he could tell that the old ticket inspector was in a bad state after seeing the photo, which made him a little suspicious. He followed quietly. Being a small man, he could easily get squeezed in the crowd. He followed
We walked all the way to the warehouse area outside the venue. There were many vacant warehouses here, where the members of the Beast Troupe and their monsters lived.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The old ticket inspector entered a warehouse. Maur wanted to get closer, but found that there was a vicious dog guarding the door. He went around to the back of the warehouse, climbed the wall to the first floor of the second floor
There is a light outside the window.
The soundproofing effect of the warehouse was very poor, and there were no protective measures against magical mechanisms. Maoer leaned against the window and saw the people in the room. Sure enough, there was the old ticket inspector and a person who seemed to be in charge. They were whispering
Maur couldn't hear what he was talking about, so he risked putting his ear against the window to listen. As a result, this movement attracted the attention of the people in the room.
"who!?"
Maur was so frightened that he let go, fell down from the second floor, and ran away. However, he was quickly blocked by people chasing him from the warehouse.
"Boy, what are you doing?" The person in charge walked up to Maur angrily, scaring him so much that he sat down on the grass.
"I, I, I, I..." In the past, when he was caught stealing, he would always argue that he was not a thief, but now he wanted to make these people think that he was here to steal, which would make his words worse.
The old ticket inspector was one-eyed, with a gray artificial eye and a real eye staring at him at the same time, which made Maur even more furious. Fortunately, the man said: "I'm afraid you're not here to steal anything?"
Maur nodded quickly, shook his head hurriedly, and nodded again.
The manager smiled and said, "This kid must have been so scared. He was shaking his head and nodding. He didn't even know what he was doing."
Maur looked timid and frightened, and coupled with his shabby clothes, he really looked like someone who had been caught stealing.
The old ticket inspector searched him: "Nothing was stolen."
The manager said: "He is also a poor man. If he doesn't steal anything, let him go."
Maoer thanked him repeatedly and quickly got up to leave.
"Wait a minute." The person in charge suddenly felt that something was wrong. There was no way they were lying behind their windows to steal things. Thinking of the old ticket inspector saying just now that there were many people looking for people with photos, he immediately became alert: "You are here.
Find the person in the photo!”
Maur's whole body was shaken, and he ran away again, but was caught by the steward again. This time Maur hurriedly shouted for help, which confirmed the steward's suspicion.
The old ticket inspector was surprised and said: "We are really here to find that person. What should we do?"
The manager thought about it, threw Maoer to him and said, "Force him to find out who is looking for the person in the photo, and then kill him."
"Ah, killing someone is bad, right?"
"What are you afraid of? Looking at him like this, you can tell that he is a wild child. Kill him and feed him random monsters. Who knows that he died in our place?"
When Maoer heard that he was going to be killed, he was almost scared out of his mind, but his mouth was covered and he couldn't scream.
