Chapter 70
Bai Tongtong went around the street, and when he came back, Ike Begen was already in the store. He warmly received Bai Tongtong and asked her to talk at the back.

Under Ah Huang's candor technique, Began also told everything he knew without concealing it, and mentioned Cady Burke's accent, guessing that it might come from somewhere north of the hills, but the ore really didn't know who he was Where did I find it.

Bai Tongtong wrote down this new clue and went back to the hotel to wait for Mardo and the others to come back.

In the evening, people from the Tequila Mercenary Group came back one after another. The clues they inquired were similar. No one knew where Cady Burke came from. They only knew that the accent was close to the area north of the hills, but all the cities, villages and towns in that area The combined total population is at least 30 to [-] people. It is not easy to find a liar who does not know whether he is lurking back to his hometown.

Mardo took out a map of the area north of the hills, and based on the clues they inquired, he drew circles on it with a pen. As more and more circles were made, the key areas with the heaviest lines also It slowly appeared.

"That Cady Burke's hometown is probably in this area." Mardo put down his pen, pointed to the key point and said in circles.

Bai Tongtong leaned over to look, and on the rough map, the circled place names didn't know whether it was a city or a village, "Is this a city? A village?"

"It should be two cities and the villages and towns in between. Compared with just now, this range has been reduced a lot."

"Okay, everyone will be divided into two groups tomorrow. Mardo will send a few people to investigate first, and the rest will go to the surrounding areas to investigate for another day to see if there are any new clues. They will meet up early the morning after tomorrow."

"Okay, then let's go to Binin City first, and meet at Binin's Magicians Guild early in the morning the day after tomorrow." Mardo immediately arranged the itinerary.

Everyone had no opinion and agreed unanimously, then packed up their things and went downstairs to eat.

Returning to their respective rooms after dinner, Mardo took out the runestones and opened the teleportation array, wrote a note and threw it in.The teleportation array was closed, he put away the runestones, went to find his own men, and picked half of the men to go to Bining City early tomorrow morning. Bai Tongtong also came out to look for him, and paid enough fees for those who left early.

Mardo stayed with his subordinates for a while, and after returning to his room, he opened the runestone teleportation array again, and a letter jumped out, which instructed Mardo where to find news after he arrived in Binin City, and the above would also help find clues, In addition, Maldo should try his best to establish a good relationship with Bai Tongtong.

With these words, Mardo's mood became much more relaxed. As for making friends, he would do it without the instructions from above. It is very honorable to be friends with Wuyingmao's partner in the circle.

The next day, everyone was busy working all day. We came back to meet at the hotel in the evening. We didn’t find any useful clues. It’s not as good as the news we got in the city yesterday. That Cady Burke didn’t go to the villages and towns outside the city to sell ore at all. The goal was very clear. Pointing to the powerful miners in the city, then Tavel will be out of luck.

In the early morning of the third day, when Bai Tongtong and Maldo were settling the rent, the clerk under Begen came to her in a hurry, saying that he remembered a time when he was eating on the street and met Cady Burke. During the chat, he mentioned that he loved a kind of fragrant snowball biscuits made by his mother since he was a child.

"There are many varieties of fragrant snow balls, but the only one that can be eaten is found in our hilly area, only in Bining City in the north and its surrounding areas, and the quality is also the best." The clerk said very positively, "We want to make fragrant snow balls here. The biscuits are all purchased from there, and some are specially grown."

"If it is a common raw material, this is not a useful clue."

"However, he said at the time that his mother made the most authentic fragrant snowball biscuits."

"So the range is in Binin City?"

"More than that. According to the origin of the fragrant snowball biscuits that has been circulated here, the small towns between Binin City and Bielach City are the places where edible varieties were first discovered. You will know when you go, they are still there Fight for the title of discoverer of the edible variety of Xiangxueqiu."

The corner of Bai Tongtong's mouth twitched, and he gave the clerk a generous tip, "Thank you."

Turning their heads to look at Mardo and the others, everyone smiled, "It's really good news."

No longer wasting time, everyone quickly rushed to the Magician Guild, teleported to Binin City, walked out of the guild gate, half of the team that arrived first was waiting for them on the street, called the carriage and went to the hotel for a meeting, and reported that they were in Binning City inquired about the situation.

Because of the above guidance, the half of the team went directly to the cathedrals of the dioceses, gave the priest a little alms and a few soft words, and got the opportunity to inquire about the family, date of birth, and place of birth of the residents, including nearby villages and towns. Birth records of residents are available.

The name Cady Burke may be a fake name, but people's appearance and age cannot be faked. Based on this clue, they copied down all those who matched their age.

Just in time, Bai Tongtong and Mardo took out the fresh clues they had just obtained, focusing on finding the population of the small town between Binin City and Birach City.

Because it was sandwiched between the two cities, the administrative jurisdiction of those small towns naturally belonged to these two cities, so the team was divided into two again, and some people rushed to Birach City through the teleportation array, and went to the parish that governed the town. The church looked for information, and the rest of the people went to the church in the city to sort out the population of the town.

This time, there are more people and the focus is more efficient, but the lady in the archives room is forbidden to enter, so Bai Tongtong can only sit in the hall and read her magic book, while Ah Huang lies on the ground at her feet enjoying the natural stone. bursts of coolness.

It was quiet in the hall, today was not Sunday, the cleaners left after cleaning, no one disturbed Bai Tongtong and concentrated on reading.

Ah Huang gave Bai Tongtong a good scratch, telling her not to play with her magic things in the sacred hall.

Bai Tongtong was startled, and looked up for a while, and sure enough, seeing a little assistant looking at him with strange eyes, Bai Tongtong smiled apologetically, and quickly restrained the magic element that was inadvertently mobilized because of being fascinated by reading.

Putting away the magic book, and the mercenaries hadn't come out yet, Bai Tongtong left the church and walked around the streets, and bought a few pieces of the so-called most authentic Xiangxueqiu biscuits. Sugar, petals and something similar to sesame, the presence of petals seems to increase the sweetness of sugar.

Since the only food-grade fragrant snowball produced locally is considered a local snack, Bai Tongtong ate a few pieces and took the remaining biscuits to the church. paper.

The town they are going to is sandwiched between the two cities, that is to say, they are all on the border of the land, and no one has been there before. No one can give Ah Huang the direction, so they can only ask the postal carriage to see if it is available today. You can still pass, otherwise you can only wait for tomorrow.

The result of the inquiry was that the bus was indeed missed, and now there was only a short-distance bus to the suburbs, and the long-distance bus to the border left early in the morning.But I didn't ask in vain. I found out the route along the way, and it doesn't matter if I don't take a car.

We discussed it and decided to stop here today and wait for the companions from Birach City to come back and set off together tomorrow.

In the afternoon, the mercenaries who went to the city of Birach not only brought back the copied population information, but were also lucky enough to meet a villager who came to the church to report and register the new population, who happened to live in the area between the borders of the two cities.

According to the villager, in their area, the villagers mainly make a living by farming, and the richest are still big landlords. However, in Keluo Town near Binin City, in recent years, there has been a prospecting business that made a fortune. The rich rich man, a native of the town, named Reggie, Cady Reggie.

This is really unbelievably good news, Bai Tongtong couldn't sit still immediately, and wanted to go over to have a look now.It would be the best if it was really alias Cady Burke, but I don't know if he is at home. After all, it has been a few months since Tavel bought the mine vein information from him.

But no matter what, Bai Tongtong still decided to go, even if he missed nothing, it would be a harvest, and he could make a new plan as soon as possible.

The mercenaries had no objection, so everyone checked out and went out of the city. In the wild, Ah Huang led frequent short-distance escapes, correcting the direction again and again, and the advantages of the feline earth-type monsters were revealed. The faint scent of alyssum and biscuits brought everyone to a beautiful field of alyssum flowers, and then asked the farmer about the direction and distance of Keluo Town, and escaped to the outside of the town accurately.

Everyone smoothed their clothes, dispersed and walked into the town. Ah Huang also acted alone, and went directly to Lei Ji's house to have a look. No one would pay attention to an animal, which was convenient for him.

Bai Tongtong and the mercenaries were divided into several groups to wander around the town. There were quite a few bakeries and cake workshops with a wafting aroma. It turned out that each family had a different recipe for Xiangxueqiu biscuits, and each family had a unique taste. The largest one The family restaurant bears the sign of Reggie's.

Bai Tongtong walked in with the people as if nothing had happened, everyone ordered their meals, and Ah Huang sneaked out from under the table.

[Found it, he's at home, and Cady Burke is Cady Reggie.The newest big house in town is their home. 】

[Have you figured out the family situation? 】

[Parents, wife and children live together with two younger brothers, sister-in-law, nephew and niece. 】

[Okay, steal people away in the middle of the night. 】

Bai Tongtong smiled at the waitress who brought the food, and exchanged winks with Mardo, who immediately nodded to his subordinates understandingly.

So this refreshment was really a refreshment, a relaxing break without any purpose, and I stayed in this store until dinner time, enjoying today's chef's recommendation.

Ah Huang was in charge of keeping an eye on Cady Reggie who was at home. After finding out that he had dinner at home, he went to the tavern in the town to drink and play cards with his friends. This gave Mardo and the others an opportunity. Ah Huang took them After recognizing the face, he retreated.

The change of plan made it unnecessary for Bai Tongtong to go out in person. She believed that with Maldo's and his abilities, it would not be difficult to steal someone out quietly, so she went to a secluded place in the town and waited.

After Ah Huang left Mardo, he caught a hare from somewhere, squatted at Bai Tongtong's feet and ate deliciously. When it raised its head, it told Bai Tongtong that the mercenaries had returned.

Cady Reggie was carried over by Mardo's men unconsciously, no one was alarmed, Bai Tongtong didn't even bother to ask them how they did it, and after confirming that he was correct, he asked the mercenaries to wake him up , Ah Huang threw out the candor technique and asked for a confession first.

Cady Reggie didn't even have a chance to resist, so he took the initiative to confess the crimes he had committed, and used irrelevant ore and fake mine information to deceive businessmen to make money, so he never partnered with others to open mines, and only said that he I like doing prospecting work.

Tavel is not his first victim. He has defrauded no less than ten people one after another in the past few years. With the money he defrauded, he became the richest man in Keluo Town. He opened a restaurant for his family, and his mother made the most authentic ones. Xiangxueqiu biscuits, and unite townspeople and villagers to compete with competitors for the title of the first discoverer of the edible variety of Xiangxueqiu.

In the town, the eldest son of the Reggie family is the glory of everyone, and even the ideal candidate for mayor in many people's hearts, but outside, he is a harmful bastard.

After confirming that he did not catch the wrong person, Bai Tongtong threw a sleeping scroll, and Ah Huang led everyone back to Bining City directly.

They found a hotel to stay at random, and Bai Tongtong gave them enough money, so no one asked what a group of mercenaries were doing with a well-dressed civilian, and quickly opened a guest room for them to rest.

In the early morning of the next day, Cady Reggie was wrapped in a bed sheet, and the men carried him to the Magicians Guild, and returned to Volanda City through the teleportation array. Ah Huang led them to Slagosse Town to find the Tower ville.
