Broad World

Walking out of the gate of the arena, Henry shook the heavy purse in his hand, pretended to be generous and said to the girl: "Tell me, little wild cat, what do you want to eat at noon today? Mr. Hamid's treat, we at least There is a budget of eight hundred gold coins."

"Damn it! Are you still thinking about eating? This matter is simply too dangerous. In the dungeon, that old man really wanted to kill me!" Fatini cursed in a low voice while patting her chest, from the shock It can be seen in her eyes that her emotions have not really calmed down.

But it's no wonder that a girl who grew up in a slum can bear the aura exuded by a big businessman like Hamid, let alone she is not yet thirteen years old.

"Haha! The little wild cat is also scared sometimes." Henry laughed and stroked the girl's hair. "Don't worry, no one can hurt you without me. Well, think about what to have for lunch. If you don't give an answer within ten numbers, we'll go to the Giant Spirit Hotel and order thirty of the most expensive dishes. .”

As soon as the words fell, Fatini, who was still a little scared, jumped up instantly, grabbed the purse and shouted: "Don't think about it! That hotel is a robbery! Follow up, I will take you to taste the economical, affordable, Also very delicious folk snacks.”

Seeing the girl clutching the purse tightly, Henry knew that she had finally come out of the psychological shadow, so he finally felt relieved and shrugged his shoulders indifferently: "Okay, but you have to make sure the food is clean, I don't want to eat it Rat in the sewer."

Although he is not very picky about food, he is still not sensitive to some "special" dishes in Faerun. For example, the common rat meat skewers in slums, dirty dog ​​meat pots, grilled beetles, etc., let alone eating them, just thinking about them makes my stomach feel sick.

"Don't worry, respected young master, I won't let those cheap food stain your noble mouth." Fatini imitated the appearance of a maid and raised her skirt. Said sarcastically.

"Wow! That's really mean. I pushed Mr. Hamid back just now. Why aren't you afraid of me? Is it because I'm younger and handsome?" Henry continued to tease the girl.

This is his latest hobby. When he has nothing to do, he bickers with the little girl in front of him who has long fiery red hair and has an equally hot personality.

Fadini squinted at Henry deliberately, and curled her lips in disdain: "Afraid of you? Although you did look bluffing just now, in my eyes you are just a big obscene boy."

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!"

After listening to the girl's evaluation of himself, Henry couldn't help laughing. There was no way not to laugh, since he got the fief of Angomei Island, it was the first time someone called him a big boy, and he also added the prefix of obscene and obscene.

obviously. Henry's current performance in Calimport is very good. No one will associate him with Henry Angomey, who has many titles and is revered by many people. In this way, the plan to lead to the Talisman Club will be lost. biggest hindrance.

"What nerves! Don't laugh, hurry up, aren't you hungry? The place to eat is just ahead." Saying that, Fatini trotted through the alley and walked into a house with a heavy purse in her arms. A small shop in a slum.

There is neither a signboard nor a loud shout, but it is densely packed with ordinary people wearing patched clothes. They hold the unique flatbread of Calimshan. There was a bowl of chowder stewed in front of him, and they were devouring it. A pair of fifteen or sixteen-year-old twin boys were busy delivering meals to the guests.

Henry stood at the door and glanced inside. Nodding slightly: "It looks pretty good, but why is there no signboard?"

"Of course it's for tax evasion! Just the money that needs to be paid to the members of the gang is enough. If it is slaughtered by a greedy tax officer, this store may have closed down long ago." Fatini rushed to the two boys. He beckoned. "Hey! Akailamu! Aliyi!"

"Oh! Damn it, little wild cat, it's you!" One of the boys was stunned for a moment, then immediately wiped the oil on his hands, and ran out quickly to give the girl a high-five. "Aha. The clothes are not bad. They are worth at least fifteen gold coins. I heard from people on the street that you were kidnapped, but judging by your appearance, you are obviously doing well."

"Hey! Are you the one who ransacked the bastard who kidnapped you?" Another boy also rushed out and asked excitedly.

Fatini turned her head and glanced at Henry with a helpless face, and explained with a smile: "Things are a little different from what you think. Forget it, let me introduce it. The person behind me is the one who brought me The person who left was not kidnapped, but hired, and I am now his maid and guide."

"Ha! Hello, friend. My name is Aliyi and I am brother." The boy who ran out first introduced himself with a smile showing his white teeth.

The second boy who ran out also said in a half-joking tone: "My name is Akailam, and I am my younger brother. I just had a sense of humor just now, I hope you don't mind."

"It's okay, I like to joke the most, Fadini must be deeply touched by this." Henry shook hands with the two brothers, teasing the girl mercilessly.

"Sorry, I have to remind you that your joke is not funny at all!" Fadini rolled her eyes angrily after speaking.

Seeing such an interesting scene, Ekailam laughed and spread his hands: "Dude, I like your tone, but be careful, there is usually no good end to annoying the little wild cat."

Henry pretended to be deeply touched and sighed: "Hey...you are right, I have already experienced it deeply."

"Shut up both of you immediately! I'm here for dinner! Not for sarcasm!"

Fadini waved her fist angrily, then walked directly across the hall and into the back hall. She was quite familiar with this place, and the middle-aged woman in charge of collecting money didn't even have the slightest intention to stop her.

"Well, nothing is more important than eating. Come to the back hall, and I'll ask my father to make some special dishes for you." Ariyi greeted warmly, then turned and led the way.

A group of three people plus Ares squeezed through the front hall full of people, and soon came to a small small room. Fadini was sitting at a table at the moment, chatting and joking with a slightly obese middle-aged man Laughing, looking very happy.

"Roar!"

Smelling the aroma coming from the kitchen, Ares, a foodie, couldn't bear it anymore. He arched Henry's legs hard, which means you hurry up and let them serve the food.

"Don't worry, buddy, it's not even noon yet, bear with it for a while." Henry patted his animal companion on the head to reassure him.

"Good afternoon, you must be the young man Fatini mentioned just now, my name is Wahid, the father of the two cubs, and also the owner and chef of this restaurant. I heard that you brought Omer with him yesterday. His subordinates beat him up hard. I just want to say that it was done beautifully, and I wanted to do it a long time ago."

The middle-aged man slapped the table and yelled while laughing, his fleshy face looked more like a thug than a chef.

Henry noticed that his palms were covered with thick calluses, which could not be grinded out with a kitchen knife, only those who had actually engaged in killing could have them. Obviously, the identity of the other party was definitely not as simple as the owner of a restaurant.

"Come on dad, when Omer came to collect the protection fee last time, my brother and I wanted to teach him a lesson, but you stopped him?" Akailam clenched his fists, eyes flickering There was a cold light.

Wahid shook his head helplessly and explained: "Son. We are running a restaurant now, not a gang, so don't always think about fighting. Let me ask you, if you annoy Balk and him after beating Omer What about the phantom guild? Could it be that the three of us have managed a guild? Have you forgotten who is supporting Balk?"

"Then we can't let this bastard sit on our necks and shit!" Aliyi was very angry and stood in the same camp as his younger brother.

"Cut! Two ignorant brats, don't make people laugh. I won't tell you anymore. Anyway, don't make trouble. I have to cook." Wahid stood up and walked into the kitchen after a while. After a while, there was a burst of fragrance.

But Henry's attention is no longer on lunch at the moment. Instead, he became very interested in the father and son. He quietly leaned into the girl's ear and asked, "From what you said just now, this store seems to be a little troublesome?"

"Yes. Uncle Wahid used to be the leader of the Scorpion Guild, and he had some grievances with the Phantom Guild. Later, the Scorpion Guild was disbanded, so he had no choice but to open a store here. But Balk obviously still remembers the previous hatred , so people often come to make trouble. How about it, can you solve it?" Fadini lowered her voice and said everything she knew.

Obviously, she chose to eat here for a purpose. Perhaps it was the way Henry and Hamid talked in the morning, so I subconsciously felt that the other party must be capable of solving this problem.

After all, Phantom is just a small guild occupying a few blocks, while Hamid is the contractor of the East District Arena. The two are not of the same heavyweight at all. The latter has been honored as "Your Excellency" by many people.

"Of course, it's easy to solve this little trouble. But I have a better plan, a plan that can let the beast out of the cage and return to hunting in the wild." Henry's eyes showed a deep look, inadvertently Flicked across the faces of the sulking brothers.

Now that he has decided to start with the underground forces in Calimport, he wants to occupy a small guild first. Although killing the boss is very simple, it is very troublesome to manage. There must be someone who is trustworthy and experienced.

You must know that gang management is not a child's play, all kinds of bribery, win over, betrayal, and assassination methods emerge in endlessly, and it is entirely possible to become a polished commander overnight.

As a smart person, Henry knows what his shortcomings are, and he hates tedious and boring work extremely, so he is going to find an opportunity to take Wahid and his son into account. A stranger is much better.
