Alien landlady

Chapter 52 Going to the Royal Capital
In the crowded hall of the mercenary guild, a magical light suddenly flashed, and the mercenaries dispersed one after another. Then there was an uproar, and Bai Tongtong appeared with a captive covered in blood.

The staff of the guild immediately stepped forward to receive the object of the task, carried the prisoner to the back on a stretcher to check his identity, and invited Bai Tongtong to be present together.

It is very easy to verify the authenticity, and the candor technique came in handy, and there was no lie in the answers to any questions, so after ten minutes, Bai Tongtong's manual was stamped with a mission accomplished seal, and he got a money box with tax deducted, Inside is the commission she deserves for this mission.

After two consecutive long-distance escaping techniques within a few hours, Ah Huang was so tired that he could hardly open his eyes, and after barely performing a candor, he fell asleep in Bai Tongtong's arms. Therefore, Bai Tongtong deliberately left through the guild's side door, Take a long circle in a taxi and go back to Galty's house to rest.

After completing a series of procedures, the mercenary guild sent the person to the General Public Security Bureau. Apart from the task issued by the city lord, it was also the standard procedure for this type of task. Moreover, there were important clues on the subject that required the Chief of Public Security Go to deployment.

In front of the chief executive, the earth magician who was specially called performed the honesty technique again. Kutra confessed to the complicated relationship with the famous tea merchant Fati in the city, whether it was an accomplice or a relative. Fati's personal vendetta.

In the afternoon of the same day, Fati was arrested by the sheriff and soldiers at his home, and the business store was also sealed up.

The news spread wildly in the city, and the merchants on Cello Street were overjoyed. Many people flocked to Faseas Firm to express their gratitude to Faseas and Balbo.

Balbo was allowed to leave work early today, and went home to ask Bai Tongtong for details.

At that time, Bai Tongtong had already counted all the high-grade sheep's milk cheese produced by Viscount Hope's farm from the spoils, and piled them in the living room on the first floor. Balbo just happened to count them when he came back.A box of 12 yuan, after counting, the quantity shipped by myself is in it, and there is also the quantity lost by other merchants.

Originally, when the cheese was sold, some of them shipped it separately, and some other merchants bought it and packed it with other products for delivery.Among them, all the convoys that he independently delivered goods were robbed, while some other merchants were robbed, and some were lucky enough not to encounter robbers, so looking at so many boxes of cheese, Balbo couldn't figure out which ones were for a while. Which one, there is even a half and a half of a box left in it, and I don't know how much the robbers ate.

Balbo made the decision and used the half of it to cook for the cook. On a whim, Bai Tongtong grated a little shredded cheese and made baked potatoes, which were so delicious that they swallowed his own tongue.

The next day, Balbo went to work with a space bag containing only cheese. Faseas was ecstatic to see that so many of the lost high-end goods were recovered. This saved him from the brink of bankruptcy and generously I gave five boxes of Bai Tongtong as a thank you gift.

This good news cannot be hidden from others, and soon other merchants came to ask about their goods cautiously. Balbo asked them to compare the goods list back and forth, and the ugly thing is that the quantity and variety may not match. God knows what the robbers do with the loot, especially the wine caravans, which are the robbers' favorite.

The merchants were aware of this reminder, and if there was no nonsense, they hurried back to sort out the list and sent it in a hurry. In addition, they had to prepare documents to submit a claim to Fati in court.

In the evening, Bai Tongtong saw that the heads of these lists were getting bigger, so she threw all the space bags containing the loot to Balbo and asked him to get them by himself. The only complete package was the one she brought back from the scene yesterday, and the others were estimated to be more or less Or less loss.

The quantity of these goods is large and the total price is high, but no matter how high it is, it cannot compare to the value of the space bag itself and the spoils obtained from Rizzoli. Bai Tongtong has no intention of embezzling these ordinary goods. It's worth it to give the victimized businessman a good reputation.

Balbo was helpless with so many goods, and the next day he took the space bag to discuss with the boss, and decided to rent a large warehouse and return the goods publicly.

The news spread that the merchants were very grateful, and the merchants with large warehouses were willing to provide a suitable space for free. After hearing about this, the sheriff in the Selo District sent soldiers to help take stock of the records, and announced that no merchants would be allowed until the official permission They claim it by themselves, because these are now the important physical evidence of the court's judgment of the leader of the Black Spear Bandit Group, Satra, and the behind-the-scenes messenger Fati, including the goods that Faseas has taken back. Register truthfully.

The merchants were very cooperative with this order, and even if it delayed their return of the goods by a few days, it was worth seeing the master's messenger go to the gallows for it.

Bai Tongtong was rewarded by the city lord for her deliberate and noble behavior, and sent someone to send an invitation to invite her to a dinner party.

Bai Tongtong was flattered to look at the invitation, and found a time conflict. The dinner date was at the beginning of July, and she was in the capital at that time.

The city lord's reply was astonishingly fast. He invited her again for a simple lunch on the last day of June, and hoped that she would not refuse. As the lord of a city, it would be a shame if he couldn't thank her personally, and he would arrange it at After lunch, send a car to take her to the Wizards Guild.

With such earnest words, Bai Tongtong readily agreed.

The merchants on Selo Street learned from Balbo that this brave and capable Miss Bai was about to leave for the capital. In order to express their gratitude, they sent their best high-end products one after another, and all the offices of Faseas Trading Co., Ltd. The piles were full, and the value was hard to estimate. For this reason, Balbo had to go home and borrow a space bag from Bai Tongtong, and then bring back the thank you gift the next day.

Seeing that her personal property has increased by a considerable amount, Bai Tongtong grinned from ear to ear.

The next few days were like a vacation for Bai Tongtong. After having breakfast in the morning and preparing a picnic basket, Ah Huang took her to the surrounding countryside to spend the day, watching the mountains, rivers and forests, and occasionally going to Viscount Drago or Viscount Hope’s house for an afternoon drink. Tea attended a small dinner party, and by the way, I heard a gossip that the well-known art dealer Rizzoli left his wife and children at home and disappeared. She took her wedding jewels and part of the cash converted from the remaining dowry, so that she and her children would not be deprived of food and clothing. Fortunately, she was taken in by her natal family and recently sent to a rural manor for recuperation.

Bai Tongtong didn't understand why Rizzoli disappeared without taking his family with him, but it didn't prevent her from giving a little sympathy, um, only for the part of the money.

Ah Huang was yawning boredly under the table, the man was missing, so the wives and ladies chatted for so long.

The current situation is like this, as long as Bai Tongtong goes out, Ah Huang will follow, including during morning exercises, to fully increase the exposure, for fear that the world will not know where it is.

There are still people who want to snatch the Shadowless Cat, but most of them are outsiders who don't know the depth of Bai Tongtong. The workload of the sheriffs in various parts of the city has increased significantly. Come out and fill up the ground, and then turn around to charge the idiots for rescue fees and fines for disrupting the city's law and order, directly turning these mercenaries who are used to spending all their money today into negative equity, so they have to go to prison Squat for a few days.

Bai Tongtong didn't feel sorry or sympathized for this at all, this is the way of life of mercenaries.

The mercenaries stationed at Fort Chemington as a fixed site have long since given up the idea of ​​overreaching themselves. Instead, they are complacent about the existence of a shadowless cat in this city, and deeply feel that this city is blessed by the gods place.

The fishhooks are still circling around Bai Tongtong, and when she buys a bag of candy balls on the street, it will be recorded in detail which street, which store or which vendor she bought, which brand and flavor of candy she bought.

It is of course easy to get rid of their stalking. Bai Tongtong also has the intention of using them. The more powerful they write about themselves in the information they submit, the more they will be in the eyes of important people in the future, no matter whether it is for someone in the future. Whether she is a threat to be killed or silenced, or whether she is favored by someone and wants to be recruited into a certain camp, there will be various variables due to her strength.

On the last day of June, Bai Tongtong packed her bags and bid farewell to the Galti family. Lauley drove her to the Santo's Mansion for a luncheon.

The invitation said a simple luncheon. Bai Tongtong didn't dare to take the word simple to heart. After arriving, she realized that it was really a simple luncheon in terms of the number of participants. There were only ten people including the city lord and herself, but Everyone's status is not low, the two justices of the noble court and the civilian court, the chief of the public security, the chief of the city defense force, the chief of the interior, the president of the magician's guild, the president of the mercenary guild, etc., are all present in the city's political circle. .

The city lord even prepared a chair for Ah Huang. Its lunch was a large plate of assorted fresh meat. It was so happy that Ah Huang rested its front paws on the edge of the table and kept shaking its tail. A large plate of meat was eaten so that there was not even a scum left, and the plate was licked off.

The atmosphere at the luncheon was very relaxed, and it was all about small talk. Thanks to being sent on a business trip by President Hart during the winter vacation, those places and travel experiences that I had been to and travel experience came in handy at this time. With some help, Bai Tongtong didn't show any timidity at all, and left a good impression of rich knowledge and experience on everyone present.

It is necessary to ask about birth details, but maybe it is because of Wuying Mao's face, or maybe Bai Tongtong made up too scary an excuse. She said that her home was destroyed in a mudslide, and the survivors struggled to climb out of the suffocating mud. After coming out, no one came to rescue them. After a few days, the soil hardened and hardened under the scorching sun. It took nearly a year or two to do it alone as a mercenary.

This is a way for many ordinary people to become mercenaries. First find a mercenary squad or a low-level mercenary regiment for a few years, and then choose to switch to a better team or become a freelance mercenary after gaining experience and fame. Therefore, Bai Tongtong’s reason No one looked into it, and expressed sympathy for the destruction of her home by natural disasters.

Bai Tongtong thinks that when the luncheon is over, these people will definitely search the information and look up the flood records of previous years. For insurance, she added the sentence that no one rescued, so that even if no corresponding records can be found, it cannot prove that she You are lying, and you can also shift the responsibility to the lord who manages the land, because most of the low-level lords treat the people in their territories as tax machines, and they don't care about life and death. If they do not report natural disasters, no one will be held accountable.

The city lord and the others knew better about the bad behavior of the noble circle, and no one had the idea of ​​looking for information. They directly and naturally thought that Bai Tongtong's home was managed by an unscrupulous lord, and laughed at that unknown idiot in their hearts.

The luncheon is over, all the big shots have business in the afternoon, Bai Tongtong bids farewell to everyone, the butler of the city lord comes in with a trolley, and there are gifts of all sizes on the cart, said to be gifts from the wives, Bai Tongtong thanks again and again , accept all.

It just so happened that the president of the Magician's Guild was also going back to the guild, and invited Bai Tongtong to go directly in his carriage.

The president is a water mage wearing a blue robe, with six drop-shaped grade marks on his chest, just like Principal Hart.

The two chatted happily along the way. The water mage is famously gentle and considerate, but just like water can change a lot, once the water mage gets angry, the consequences are also unbearable.

The two chatted in the car about the shadowless cat, an animal that existed in the age of mythology. In Bai Tongtong's consciousness, it was compared to animals such as crocodiles, giant pandas, and platypus that survived the age of dinosaurs. She felt that such a time Lines can explain the identity of a rare animal like the Shadowless Cat.

Ah Huang has no objection to this.

When the carriage arrived at the guild, Bai Tongtong had already mastered the routine methods of raising magic pets. The president recommended to her several well-known shops dedicated to magic pets in Wangdu, where all kinds of supplies were sold, and there were even specialized veterinarians.

Thanks and farewell to the president again, Bai Tongtong stepped into the teleportation array.

After coming out of the magician guild in the capital, Bai Tongtong originally wanted to go directly to Principal Hart's house, but Ah Huang clamored to go to the magic pet shop first. pet store.

There are two floors of wide storefronts. The first floor sells all kinds of magic pet supplies, and the second floor is the nursing and treatment room. A Huang wandered around in front of the dry food and snacks counter for a long time. I tried a lot of monsters of the feline family, and finally chose a small dried fish shape, made of high-grade sea fish meat, and Bai Tongtong bought a whole bag.

After buying the snacks, Ah Huang ran to the daily necessities counter again, and took a fancy to the combs for grooming. The clerk placed more than a dozen combs of different sizes on the counter, all of which were suitable for the length of his hair. He tried them out one by one, and selected three combs. One to comb the coat, one to comb the belly hair, one to comb the head and tail hair.The clerk also presented a hair trimming set, which is actually a pair of small scissors and a small row of combs, which are used to groom the hair of the four claws, so as to prevent the hair from being too long and contaminated with outdoor dirt, which is harmful to the health of the owner and his family.

Ah Huang was satisfied with snacks and combs. Seeing that Bai Tongtong was interested in things like collars, he kept scratching her with his paws, and dragged her out of the store.

The clerks behind were laughing like hell, and they all sympathized with this female customer. There are various reasons why feline monsters are not popular as magic pets. One of them is that they are not very obedient and have a terrible temper. Center them.
