Chapter 30 The method of persuasion

Hobert looked around. There were very few customers in the coffee shop at this time, and the two waiters were also chatting at the bar.

He asked Xio in a low voice: "Have you heard of the Extraordinary called 'Trickster'?"

Huo was slightly taken aback, this was tantamount to proving the identities of the two Extraordinary, and then she thought, there is indeed nothing to hide, Hobert should have heard from Miss Audrey that she is an Extraordinary .

And Hobert, who knew the Extraordinary doctor, must also be an Extraordinary.

Xio thought about Hobert's question: "I heard that some Extraordinary people take pleasure in cheating."

Hobert nodded: "Then there is a high probability that it is the 'Trickster', the Sequence 8 of the 'Thief' path. Fortunately, the 'Trickster' is not good at fighting, if he is not deceived, I think the two of us should can subdue him."

Xio frowned, she didn't expect that this seemingly ordinary commission would involve Extraordinary people: "You mean Zachary is a 'fraudster'?"

"It may be that the gang leader and the manager of the insurance company are the identities he designed for himself." Hobert said: "It may not be that there is another person behind him."

He drank up the cheap coffee: "I want to remind Miss Hugh that we may have to prepare for a confrontation with Extraordinary people in our investigation. This is also the main reason why I asked you to cooperate."

Xio nodded: "Thank you for your reminder. However, although we are a cooperative relationship, after completing the commission, we don't share the reward equally. Instead, you go to your client to get the reward, and I go to mine to get the reward." remuneration."

Hobert smiled and said, "Of course."

He said again: "Do you know the Cuckoo Bar?"

"know."

"Ah, it's a pleasure to have a partner who knows the East Side well."

For Hobert's praise, Huo was neither happy nor bored. She silently paid for the coffee and took Hobert to the Cuckoo Bar.

The Cuckoo Bar is also a typical bar in the East District. When you open the door of the bar, Hobert feels like the Blue Knight Bar with a different sign.It also produces unrestrained laughter and strong smells, and there are also many people who look at the people who enter the store with drunken and somewhat confused eyes, and there are also many people who are whispering about something in the corner.

Xio obviously frequented such bars, she jumped onto the stool in front of the bar counter with a calm expression, and ordered a light meal.

Hobert took out his pocket watch and looked at it, only to realize that it was lunch time. The light meals here include mashed potatoes, pies, not-so-fresh salads, etc., and the price is even cheaper than the food in the cafe.

He didn't rush to inquire about Zachary's whereabouts, but ordered a simple meal, and wolfed it down.

Hobert, who had eaten instant noodles for a week in a row, has a high tolerance for food. If Lisa, Audrey's housekeeper, saw the food here, he would probably not eat a single bite.

Hobert, who finished eating first, chatted with the bartender: "Let's talk about what's new at the Cuckoo Bar recently."

Just as the bartender was about to ask for a tip, he suddenly felt that what this gentleman said was very reasonable. He was just chatting, and it seemed that there was no need to ask for a tip: "Okay sir, I heard that the boss of the Blue Knight Bar, Bigville, is back. It seems that before The news of his paralysis is a rumor..."

Xio, who was about to watch Hobert, the young master, make a fool of himself, was slightly taken aback, and then she thought that this might be Hobert's extraordinary ability.

She lamented how convenient this ability was, and she "convinced" the other party without knowing it.

But Hobert, who is becoming more and more proficient in the extraordinary ability of "lawyer", is thinking at this time: I have already paid for the meal, so there is no need to tip you anymore!
The bartender said two trivial things and then said: "I heard that Boss Zachary cheated a lot of money. Some people said that he ran to Dixie Bay to enjoy life. Of course, some people said that he escaped to the violent ocean."

Hobert asked: "When did he leave the Cuckoo?"

"About a month ago."

Hobert nodded, matching the time described by Mr. Robin, he asked again: "Have you known or heard of Mr. Heyman?"

The bartender shook his head: "I haven't heard of it."

Hobert thanked, "Thank you for your answer."

He was about to discuss the next course of action with Xio, when a middle-aged man with a friendly face and a friendly smile on his round face came over: "Two gentlemen, oh, sorry, sir and miss, you seem to want to Do you know the news of Boss Zachary?"

Hobert asked back, "You are?"

The other party took off his hat very politely: "Sir, my name is Duck Holm, and I'm the new boss of the Cuckoo Bar. You know, some dirty work has to be done by someone."

He said: "Zachry is a respectable boss, but unfortunately he has already left Backlund. But now I have taken over Zachary's boss business, I can take you to the treasure room, if Whatever you like, I will definitely give you a discount."

As he spoke, he winked at Hobart.

Hobert was taken aback, thinking we were people who came to buy stolen goods?Also "treasure room"?Why don't you call it "Treasure Pavilion"?
As for why Darkholm winked, before Hobert had time to figure it out, Darkholm was already winking while pulling Hobert out: "Don't worry, there is definitely what you want."

Hobert decided to wait and see what happened, followed Duckholm and left the bar, and Hugh jumped off the stool to follow closely.

When he came to a corner outside the bar, Duckholm had an expression of escape: "You two, I saved your life just now. You don't know that there are subordinates who are loyal to Zachary everywhere in the bar. You're looking for death by inquiring about Zachary's whereabouts."

Hobert felt as if he had encountered a charlatan. This kind of "I saved your life" routine was too shallow.

So whether it was Hobert or Hugh, neither of them thanked them, as if they were watching Darkholm continue to perform.

Dakholm, who did not receive any feedback from the "audience", was not at all embarrassed. Instead, he said with a very loyal look: "I saved you because of my kindness from the bottom of my heart, and my respect for the goddess, the god of the goddess. It teaches us to help others as much as we can."

He sighed: "Hey, you don't know my difficulties, Zachary only treats me as a pawn, and puts me in the bar to entertain guests for him, but I can't decide everything in the bar.

"But I have the real news about Zachary, he didn't actually leave Backlund, he just found a place to hide.

"I really want to help you two, so as long as the price is right, I can take you to him."

Hobert said: "You want to use us to deal with Zachary, so you have a chance to become the real boss of the Cuckoo Bar?"

Duckholm smiled kindly, but there was some cunning in his eyes: "You saw through."
