Mystery: The New Dark Emperor Arrives

Chapter 110 Catch the Thief

"Hahahaha, have you seen Jamie's old face?" Stan laughed.

Naturally, the family was very happy. They didn't expect that the problem would be solved immediately when the lawyer came.

They all thought the 10 pounds were well spent.

Stan asked Hobert: "Mr. Lawyer, how do you know that the wild boar will definitely run to my forest farm? Jamie can't even blow it away! Hahahaha."

Hobert said in his heart: Of course I used my extraordinary ability to distort the thinking of those three sows, and those little pigs would only follow the sows.

Using his extraordinary ability to distort the sow's thinking and solve the commission with a reward of only 10 pounds, Hobert always felt sorry for his extraordinary ability, as if he had made these abilities very cheap.

He said in his mouth: "I happen to have read some books on the habits of wild animals. In terms of hunting experience, I am definitely not as good as you, but I know the habits of wild boars better.

"The location of Ni's forest farm is more suitable for growing the food they need, so after being frightened, they will run towards you."

Stan said: "Sure enough, knowledge is wealth. I have been hunting all my life and I don't know this knowledge."

Back at the farmyard of the Stan family, it was around one o'clock in the afternoon. The Stan family warmly entertained Hobert and the coachman for lunch.

I was eating lunch, and the sound of horseshoes on the road, which was not very fast, attracted everyone's attention.

There were three knights in rider uniforms, riding over at a leisurely pace.

From a distance, Hobert discovered that one of them knew him, the man who had introduced him to the participants at the Mercenary Club's meeting as "the son of the Commodore General".

Hobert remembered that his name was Harvey Hayden, and he seemed to be the leader of the three.

Harvey Hayden waited for the three of them to get close before dismounting, and then politely asked Stan for some water.

The Stan family was very enthusiastic, took their water bladders to help fill them with water, and invited them to lunch.

Harvey Hayden was about to reject the lunch invitation when he saw Hobert greet him, and he smiled and said, "Hobert! I didn't expect to meet you here. Is your father okay?"

He used to be Christine's subordinate, and seemed to have some affection for this superior.

"Thank you for your concern, everything is fine with him." Hobert said politely.

The two sides chatted for a while, and the water over there was also filled. Harvey Hayden was about to leave, and suddenly seemed to think of something: "We are catching three thieves, and we just don't have enough manpower, Hobert, please help, wait When the matter is over, I will give you a part of the commission."

Hobert knew that the case that Barton gave him could not be so simple, but he didn't expect that this unexpected development was to catch a thief?

Seeing Hobert hesitated, Harvey Hayden said again: "Those thieves didn't even have guns in their hands, and they were surrounded by us on a mountain.

"You just need to help guard one of the directions, there is not much danger."

Stan, who lives here, said worriedly, "I can help."

"No need." Harvey Hayden smiled and said, "Those thieves have knives and daggers in their hands. To be safe, we professionals should deal with them."

Then he looked at Hobart again.

Hobert could feel the sincerity in the eyes of the other party: "Okay, I will go with you after eating this piece of bread."

In fact, Hobert just decided to follow Harvey Hayden to catch the thief, because he guessed that Harvey Hayden should also know Rex, and he could extract some information about Rex from him.

And he also wanted to see what surprises the "Law of Convergence of Extraordinary Characteristics" would bring him this time.

In order to prevent accidents, he carried "Teleporting Stone Statue", "Wood of Order" and so on, as long as he didn't encounter an enemy of Sequence 6 or above who was determined to kill him, he would be sure to retreat .

Hobert finished the bread in his hand and said goodbye to the Stan family.

Stan happily gave the commission fee and gave Hobert some dried meat and wild vegetables.

Hobert gave the driver some dried meat and asked him to drive back first. He didn't know how long it would take to finish.

Harvey Hayden led the horse and walked with Hobert to join the others.

As he walked, he said, "Last night, a batch of jewelry was stolen from Earl Vincent's house. The earl's son Simon immediately issued a mission to the Mercenary Club, so nine mercenaries, including me, formed a temporary team. Catch these thieves.

"We followed the clues to find the three fleeing thieves and chased them all the way here."

Hobert asked: "A group of thieves will patronize the dignified Earl's house?"

Harvey Hayden whispered: "I also know that this incident is very unusual, Simon must have concealed something, but don't worry, I have seen the three thieves on the mountain, and there is only one Sequence 9 Extraordinary.

"According to the mission issued by Simon, it is enough to capture these three people, and we don't need to intervene further."

Hobert nodded. Of course, an old mercenary like Harvey Hayden would not get involved in the mess of the nobles.

At the three-way intersection not far ahead, Hobert and the others joined other mercenaries.

Harvey Hayden introduced Hobert to everyone: "He is also a member of the Mercenary Club. He was performing a mission nearby, and I pulled him over to help."

The credibility of the mercenary club was very strong, and there were two mercenaries who knew Hobert. With their evidence, the trust of other mercenaries in Hobert immediately increased a lot.

The actual commander of this operation, Simon Vincent, also smiled and said: "We are currently short of manpower, and you are welcome to join."

After everyone drank a few sips of water, Simon began to assign tasks. First, two people were appointed to guard the horses and carriages here, and Simon, Harvey Hayden, and a "hunter" went to search the mountains.

The remaining six people stood in groups of two and two and stood in three directions on the side of the road, waiting for Simon and the others to drive the thief out of the woods.

On the other side of the road is the deep mountain. If the three thieves were still rational, they would not enter the deep mountain.

Hobert and a mercenary named Vico arrived at the designated location. They found two adjacent trees, climbed to the trees and waited condescendingly.

After waiting for more than an hour, the two of them were a little bored, so they chatted without saying a word.

While discussing the "Corn Bill", Hobert suddenly felt as if he had entered a coma, but then he woke up again.

Before he could understand what was going on, he saw Vico not far away was dazed and motionless, sitting stiffly on a tree branch.

The "psychological spoon" in the clothes suddenly became hot, and Hobert realized that he had just encountered a psychological attack.

At this time, a middle-aged man in luxurious clothes jumped from the ground to Vico's side.

The middle-aged man didn't seem to notice that Hobert still maintained his will, he asked, "What's your name?"

Vico replied with absent-minded eyes: "Vico."

Hobert also hurriedly pretended to be sitting on the tree branch. The enemy's situation was unknown, so of course he had to pretend to be controlled by the opponent.

The other party asked Vico again: "What are you doing here?"

Vico described their plan in detail just now.

The middle-aged man jumped under the tree, and Hobert vaguely heard him say to another person: "I've confirmed it, it's the mercenary hired by Earl Vincent to catch the thief."

"Then don't bother them."

"Yes," the middle-aged man jumped back to the tree, and said to Hobert and Vico, "You will ignore the convoy passing here for a while."

Vico nodded blankly: "Yes."

Hobert felt that the "Psychological Spoon" was a little hot again, apparently blocking another psychic attack for him, and he quickly nodded: "Yes."
