Chapter 7 (1/2)
One day there was no commission. After dinner and plenty of rest, arrow led Brad, Buffy and Napa to leave the guild again.
From a distance, you can hear the cries from the square of Pelican town.
When you enter the square, you can see dozens of young men gathered there with pitchfork and torches, and the town cheese is now standing in the middle of the square. Obviously, this rally was proposed by the mayor.
When ello saw the little liquor, he immediately came forward and said hello. The bar owner nodded slightly, then looked at the direction of the mayor and stopped talking.
”I'm sure you all know! Recently, many strangers have come to Pelican town! Some of them are welcome. I hope they can join our friends in this big family in our small town! I just hope these strangers don't ruin their popularity because they are too greedy! ”
As he said this, the mayor of round cheese looked at arrow. There are not many new people in the town. At present, other townspeople turn their heads and look at ello with doubts in their eyes.
”But there are others that we absolutely don't welcome. They are thieves! It's a robber! It's a monster that harasses our lives! This hateful thief has stolen a lot of things from our town one after another. He thinks we will continue to tolerate his boldness! But he was wrong! Today, we're going to catch this guy, hang him on a branch and let him accept the end of being a thief! ”
With the mayor's call, the people who had just stared at the mermaid song immediately turned around, raised their arms and cheered. They raised their pitchfork one after another, as if they were ready to fight with someone.
Watching the team start to walk towards the West Street under the leadership of the mayor, arrow forked his waist and said with a gentle smile: ”is this a thief or a war? The other party is just a thief. Can you catch him with such a big action? ”
That said, arrow's plan made him have to follow the team.
The small spirits in the same trade were empty handed and did not seem to carry any weapons and props. Dressed as a bartender, he didn't look like a thief, but more like he was going to work in a bar. The tavern owner walked behind the line, stood side by side with arrow and opened his mouth leisurely: ”there are few people in the town. This kind of thing is all about helping each other. If there are any problems, everyone is used to acting together.”
Following the crowd, the little liquor glanced at ello beside him and said coldly, ”so, I advise you. The adventurers guild in this town really has no future. Shrem can only say that you receive the list by chance, but more often it is like this. The townspeople solve the problems together. ”
Arrow is not worried about being bullied.
After all, from small to large, he has almost never been favored.
But it doesn't matter, because it's not a quick thing.
The team moved slowly along the street. The mayor of round cheese walked in front with a torch in his hand and shouted angrily, as if he could blow out the thieves with two more shouts.
Ello doesn't mind this behavior, because I'm afraid the mayor never thought he could catch thieves in this way? It may be more practical to improve your prestige among the villagers than to catch thieves.
But the problem of thieves always needs to be solved.
As long as the thieves are not caught and a few more theft cases occur, naturally some people will think of their guild and things will naturally develop in a good direction.
”Who?!”
Just as arrow was thinking about how to advertise next, a townsman suddenly roared loudly!
Hearing the exclamation, Brad immediately rushed to arrow with the log stick in his hand. Although this guy's brain is hard to use, he still remembers the warrior rules taught him, which makes arrow very happy.
”There it is! In front of that window! ”
The villagers who had just shouted pointed to a dilapidated house that had been uninhabited for a long time, and a shadow appeared on the second floor window. From that shadow, it was obviously a human, and a petite human!
”Thief! Catch the thief! ”
Round cheese waved his torch and pointed angrily at the deserted house. The strongest townspeople rushed into the house like enraged bulls.
About three minutes later, the townspeople came out of the building with a figure.
”Got it!!!”
It can't be true?!
Although arrow still wanted to maintain the smile on his face, there was still a slight twitch in his smile.
The little liquor on one side snorted, turned and said, ”it's solved. Our town has always solved problems in this way. Go home and sleep, then pack your bags and leave before you lose much. ”
Can this result please arrow?
Of course not!
The thief can lie dormant in the town for several months, steal so many things, and then suddenly get caught in less than half an hour on patrol in one night?
His promise of a gold coin has been released. If the thief is really caught in this way, it will be a major blow to his guild's reputation!
Arrow couldn't end like this. He quickly separated the villagers in front and crowded to the front to see what the thief looked like.
Under the protection of Brad's huge body, arrow didn't spend much time pushing to the front. I saw two strong men kneeling in front of the round cheese with a small body.
It was a girl, a girl with short gray hair, wearing a ragged robe, hands and feet looked very delicate, and her age was definitely no more than 12 years old.
The girl was held by two strong men. Her face was full of fear. The tears of fear pattered down and her lips turned white.
Round cheese with a big belly looked at the little girl in front of him happily. He put the torch in his hand close to the little girl and shouted, ”who are you? There's no one like you in our town! You must have stolen so many things from us, you little thief! ”
The little girl trembled with fear. She seemed to want to say something, but she didn't dare to say anything.
The nearby looking arrow glanced at the little girl's dress and felt a little at ease.
