Beast Summoner
Chapter 873: The Rogue
"You don't have to force yourself too much. If it's inconvenient, forget it!" Li Zhenbang said with some embarrassment.
"Customer, as you said, I am a guest. How could I neglect you, Sir! What do you want to know? Just ask! In this shop, I am known as Jin Guangcheng Bai Xiaosheng. As long as I have a little fame
There’s nothing I don’t know about!” The waiter puffed out his chest and looked proud.
"In that case, let me ask. What's your name? The waiter yelled, "It doesn't feel good." Li Zhenbang looked at the waiter with a kind face, and started to get close.
"Sir, you are worrying too much. In fact, it is a coincidence that I am the second eldest child in my family. My name is Li Xiaoer, and I work as a waiter in the shop, so everyone often calls me waiter." Li Xiaoer was satisfied.
He responded with a smile on his face.
"That's a coincidence! How long have you lived in Jinguang City?"
"Guest officer, I have been living in Jinguang City since I was born. It has been twenty-four years now."
"It's been a long time, so it seems like you've seen the development of Jin Guangcheng?"
"Needless to say, Jin Guangcheng... Jin Guangcheng can be said to be developing better and better now, especially under the wise leadership of the two city lords. Everyone has no worries about food and clothing. Aren't you also here because of its reputation?
"?" Li Xiaoer's eyes flickered for a moment before he continued.
Li Zhenbang frowned. Li Xiaoer's expression did not escape Li Zhenbang's eyes. Li Xiaoer's words were obviously not sincere.
"We have no interest in the development of Jinguangcheng, so you don't need to be nervous. I haven't been to Jinguangcheng for a long time. Is there anything special or famous in Jinguangcheng in the past few years? If I can tell you what I am satisfied with, then
This silver coin is yours." Elena shook the silver coin in her hand, her voice full of temptation.
In fact, Elena can use the charm skill to make words, but if she uses the charm skill on these ordinary people, one is too wasteful, and the other is that the ordinary people may not be able to bear it and become idiots.
I don’t know if it’s because of the charm of beauty, the charm of money, or because this question is not difficult to answer, so after hearing Elena’s words, Li Xiaoer breathed a sigh of relief.
"There are many more famous things. After the death of Widow Chen's man, she often had affairs with others. Some people said that she poisoned her man to death just so that she could stay together with her lover..."
Elena frowned. Li Xiaoer was a person who was good at observing people's emotions. Seeing Elena's expression, he knew naturally that she had no interest in this kind of news, so he hurriedly changed the topic.
"Baron Joseph brought back a beautiful woman from abroad some time ago, but this woman seems to have some intellectual problems, and she almost never leaves the Baron's residence alone..."
"We are not interested in these trivial things. Is there any explosive news? For example, robbery, murder, etc." Omega stared at Li Xiaoer and asked.
Li Xiaoer felt his body tense up, as if he was the prey being targeted by a wild beast, and he did not dare to move at all.
"Robbery...murder...you...you don't want to..." Li Xiaoer's voice was trembling.
"You have also seen our strength. To tell you the truth, what we do most often is killing people. But don't worry, we have no interest in killing ordinary people. We kill the most evil people and rob them.
We will give some of our property to the poor, so everyone calls us the thieves." Omega looked at Li Xiaoer proudly.
"Huh... I'm scared to death. I feel relieved after saying this. I thought you were going to kill people and silence them!" Li Xiaoer let out a long sigh.
"But speaking of Rogue, I wonder if you have ever heard of something?" Li Xiaoer looked around nervously, and then asked cautiously.
"What's going on?" Omega looked at Li Xiaoer in confusion. From Li Xiaoer's look, it was obvious that he was about to get to the point.
"Um... A few years ago, some poor people accidentally got a bunch of gold coins, but they were all executed later. The government did it because they colluded with bandits, and many of the city lord's guards died because of this!
But everyone knows that those poor people can't collude with robbers. It's basically the thieves who gave them some of the looted property." Li Xiaoer said mysteriously.
"Oh? There is such a thing? Tell me." Li Zhenbang's eyes lit up. He actually knew about this matter, because it was Yuchen who did it, but he still pretended not to know anything.
.
Li Xiaoer came to the table, bowed, stretched his head on the table, and whispered: "Actually, everyone knows what happened, and it was also widely spread at the time. After all, dozens of people died in one fell swoop.
, it’s no small matter in Jin Guangcheng.”
"It is said that the reason why these poor people are killed is because the people above want to lure this robber out. As long as he comes out, those poor people will not have to die. The people above are also desperate. You don't know, at that time
More than a dozen of Deputy City Lord Hou's personal guards died, and it is rumored that they were all killed by this rogue."
"It's a pity that the so-called robber didn't show up until the end. The people above killed all the poor people without leaving a single one alive, not even the babies who were still waiting to be fed. The scene at that time was simply Shura.
Hell! Later, people who lived around the execution ground said that every night, they would hear the cries of children. Those were the unwilling souls of the dead!" Li Xiaoer's face was gloomy, making the atmosphere quite scary.
"The people above are really beasts!" Omega said through gritted teeth.
"Sir, you can't say that! If that robber had appeared in time, wouldn't such a thing have happened?" Li Xiaoer shook his head, "In my opinion, he was a robber, but he caused such harm.
Many people died violently, how is it any different from a real thief?"
Li Zhenbang frowned, "Xiaoer, I have a question for you."
"Sir, please tell me!"
"If, I mean if! A group of bandits suddenly came outside and surrounded us, and then said that as long as one person takes the initiative to die, they will not kill everyone. Then will you take the initiative to die?"
"I'm not going out? I'm just an ordinary waiter, and I'm not a hero. Whoever is the hero gets better!" Li Xiaoer's head shook like a rattle.
"Then if the bandits say that it is useless for anyone else to go out and die, and only by killing you can everyone else be spared, then can you go out and die?"
"I didn't provoke them, why should they kill me?" Li Xiaoer looked at Li Zhenbang with an aggrieved look.
"I have already said that if, if they want to kill you, they will let everyone go. So, are you going to die?" Li Zhenbang picked up the tea bowl in front of him and took a sip.
"Then I won't go either!" Li Xiaoer shook his head and took a step back.
"If you don't go, everyone in the inn will die. If you sacrifice yourself, everyone in the inn will survive."
"Why should I exchange my life for other people's lives? I..."
"Okay, okay, it's just a what-if, there's no need to be so serious. This is Jinguang City, how could there be a bunch of robbers and bandits?" Li Zhenbang's mouth slightly raised, showing his sarcasm.
People are like this. When things don't fall on them and they are just spectators, they will put themselves on the supreme moral high ground and then criticize others without any scruples.
But once misfortune befalls them, they will long for the pity and understanding of others, and even want to drag innocent people into the water and bury them with them, just so that they can breathe a little longer.
"Let's talk about what happened just now! What happened to the thief in the end?" Elena took out a silver coin again, placed it flat on her index finger, then flicked it with her thumb, and the silver coin rose into the air with a crisp sound.
There was a buzzing sound, and then it fell on Elena's palm again.
Li Xiaoer's eyes never left the silver coin. Although Elena's appearance was very attractive, Li Xiaoer knew his identity very well, so he paid more attention to the silver coin that was likely to fall into his pocket.
silver.
In fact, this is also the cute thing about ordinary people. They tend to pay more attention to their immediate interests. For those things that are out of reach, they can only think about it at most and will not really try it.
"Dead!" Li Xiaoer shook his head and said decisively.
"Dead? How did you know?" Li Zhenbang suddenly stood up and stared at Li Xiaoer. Li Xiaoer was startled and took several steps back before stopping.
"Uh... well... just recently, Jin Guangcheng has been promoting it with great fanfare, saying that the man who killed and injured Jin Guangcheng's guard was caught, but he resisted during the arrest and was executed on the spot.
." Li Xiaoer said cautiously.
Only then did he remember that these people claimed to be thieves, and the person who was executed on the spot was also a thieves. Maybe the two groups of people were in the same group! Thinking of what he had just said about the thieves, Li Xiaoer felt a chill running down his spine.
.
"Do you know what that person's name is?" Li Zhenbang took a big step forward and stared into Li Xiaoer's eyes.
"No... I don't know. They didn't say what the person's name was. They just said that he was executed on the spot. We didn't even see the body. In fact, many people are suspicious. The above is just a statement, and there is no real explanation.
After all, no one saw the execution site, nor the real person." Li Xiaoer rolled his eyes and said hurriedly.
"only……"
"Just what?" Li Zhenbang grabbed Li Xiaoer's collar directly.
"It's just that since that time, there has indeed been no news of any guards being killed." Li Xiaoer said with a trembling voice.
