Chapter 120: rule

  Chapter 120 Rules

When    returned to the inn near the Denglan Shipyard and instructed Renee to find it again, the sky was completely dark.

   There are fewer pedestrians on the street than during the day, replaced by many patrolling guards wearing silver and white heavy armor.

   The patrol guards consisted of a small team of five. The silver-white heavy armor on their bodies was as tight as they were born, with only a few small gaps revealed by the grid-like visor.

  Tattoo—

  The guards walked in line, the line was neat, and the steps they walked seemed to be measured by a ruler, and they were all the same length.

  Colin retracted his gaze, didn't look much, and walked quickly into this modest hotel.

  The suite he rented was at the end of the corridor on the first floor,

When    returned to the room, Renee had already prepared dinner for him.

   Not in a hurry to eat, he walked to the sofa and sat down, asking Renee:

   "How is your inquiry?"

   "It's almost there." Renee nodded, paused and began to talk:

   "There is not much information about the Bananka wizard and the Bananka Island.

   We only know that Bananka wizard is a second-order late-stage wizard, and Bananka Island is a famous trade island nearby. "

   "But it's worth noting.

   During this time, I traveled almost all over the island. "

   "But the comments about Bananka wizards and Bananka Island that can be found everywhere are almost all positive."

   Having said that, Renee paused, and hesitantly deduced:

   "Master, I think to myself—it's either that the Bananka wizard is really decent, or the Bananka wizard loves his reputation."

   "Logical inference." Colin nodded, encouraging praise.

   "Well...I think the latter is more likely." Renee added.

   "Oh." Colin raised his eyebrows and said, "The reason?"

   Renee stroked the broken hair beside her ear and said:

   "Because there are so few negative comments about Bananka Island and Bananka wizards that can be found, it is almost impossible to find them.

   Whether it is a local wizard or a businessman, they all praise Bananka wizards, thinking that Bananka Island is a free and fair trade island. "

   "But my lord, from your experience and Mr. Maud's words, the conditions on the island are clearly not as good as rumored."

   "I'm afraid, these good remarks..."

   "It's all controlled by Wizard Bananka, right?" Colin looked at Renee and smiled with satisfaction.

   "Good job, Renee."

   He asked again, "What about the information on the forces on the island?"

   Renee stroked her hair, suppressed the joy in her heart, and continued to talk.

  Colin relaxed against the sofa back and continued listening.

   Most of his previous knowledge of Bananka Island was established through the narration of the guide Maud.

   Only a small part of it is known from personal experience.

   Although this is not a big problem, Bananka Island is a new and unfamiliar environment for him, and it is always right to learn more about relevant information.

   After all, it would be unwise to just listen to what the guide, Maud, told me.

   He had this idea as soon as he came, but he was busy with cultivation and lacked skills, so it was difficult to find time.

   Fortunately, there is Renee.

   "...These days, I haven't heard of the so-called Seven Big Gangs, Twelve Little Gangs... but the Three Chambers of Commerce have heard a little." Renee continued to tell.

   "There is also the Hague Gang you mentioned a few days ago, I have never heard of it, but there is a Hague Chamber of Commerce.

   I guess it should be the same as the Hague Gang. "

   Colin nodded, and combined with the information that Renee had inquired about as an ordinary traveler, he had a clearer understanding of Bananka Island.

  Maud's words at the beginning still misled him a bit.

   Bananka Island is not Black Rock Island.

  As a trading island, the gangs on the island are not as naked and violent as the Black Rock Island.

   They all obey the rules set by the island's sole owner, the sorcerer of Bananka.

   Maud's words made him think that these gangs are all unscrupulous.

   But come to think of it now, as they do with the purported name—

   They are more like the Black Heart Chamber of Commerce.

   Compared with the gangs of Blackrock Island, their methods are more gentle and restrained.

  Even ordinary travelers have a hard time knowing that they exist.

   As if the dust were removed from a mirror, Colin had a clearer understanding of the predicament he was currently encountering.

   The worries in my heart also disappeared for the most part.

   He understood the rules of Bananka Island more deeply.

   The next day.

   The sky is dimly lit.

   The sound of patrolling the steel armored guards that had been coming from outside the suite window all night finally stopped.

   was replaced by the noise of the street.

  Colin walked out of the hotel, went to the port, and was about to find Maud for an appointment.

  But as soon as he walked out of the hotel, he frowned.

  'I didn't expect the Hague Chamber of Commerce to find this place...'

   Not far in front of him on the left, there was a man in a gray robe holding a portrait and asking passersby.

   Apparently the portrait was his.

   Colin couldn't help frowning slightly, but he wasn't worried about being recognized, after all, he was in disguise now.

   It’s just that this kind of search effort is definitely not normal.

   Before that, he had only seen his own portrait on the Hague gang members he met on the road and on the notice board fixed on Lambay Street.

   And on the notice board, there are several other portraits next to his portrait.

   He is just one of them, nothing special.

   Apparently back then, the Hague Chamber of Commerce was just a normal search.

  I didn't expect... Now you can even see people searching here.

  It was getting late, he withdrew his gaze and moved on.

   The newly found hotel is near the Denglan Shipyard, and the port is not far from here.

   After a while, he came to the appointed place and looked around, but saw no sign of Maud.

  Click.

   Take out the pocket watch, the time on it is exactly 9:00.

   Colin frowned slightly and looked up, but he still didn't see Maud.

It is not the first time that    has made an agreement with Maud, and he has always been late.

  Maud always arrives about five minutes early.

   It's never too early, and it's never too late.

  But now...

   Waited for a few more minutes, but still didn't see Maud.

   hesitated, Colin looked for the direction where he saw Maud come.

  If Maud came as planned, this time may be nearby.

  ‘I don’t have much hope, but is it a thing to always wait in place.

  Take two steps and take a look, don't come back and wait. ’

  Thinking like this, he has already walked to the street on the left of the intersection.

   Before taking a few steps, he saw the figure of Maud.

  Beside Maud, there are two familiar figures standing.

   It was the wizard of the law enforcement team and the members of the Hague Gang that he had seen when he sneaked back to the auction house.

   His face remained unchanged, Colin paused, turned and turned into the dark alley on the left.

   After a while, when he came out again, he had already changed his appearance.

  Colin continued to walk slowly towards Maud and others.

   Soon, the sound of conversation not far away came to my ears along the breeze.

   "Master Hart, I can cooperate with your investigation, but please remember—

   No matter who the previous owner was, the gold four-leaf clover in my hand was auctioned by my real gold and silver from the Golden Anchor Auction House of the Wizard of Banan! "

   At this moment, Maud is emphasizing something to Hart of the law enforcement team.

   Although the speed of speech is not fast, the tone is not as smooth and gentle as before, but a bit tougher and sharper.

   But Maud has given up too much.

   I have worked hard and frugally for decades, in order to obtain such a potion that can improve my aptitude.

   Now that he is in his fifties, he cannot afford to lose this potion.

  Hart looked a little sullen when he heard this.

   But before Maud finished speaking, his tone slowed down and continued:

   "Of course, I believe in the long-standing reputation of the Golden Anchor Auction House, and I also believe in the law enforcement team led by His Excellency the Wizard of Bananka. My interests will not be damaged.

   Two days ago, I also praised the Golden Anchor Auction House and the law enforcement team with the supervisor of the Bauhinia Caravan. The head of the Jackdaw Caravan who is currently stationed on the island, I also recommended the Golden Anchor Auction to him when he came to the island before. "

  Hart suppressed his impatience, stretched his brows, put on a smile and said gently:

   "Don't worry, I'm just doing business. Your Excellency Bananka has always taught us to respect your interests, and I won't forget it."

   "I just hope you can understand that although you paid for the magic stone, this golden clover belongs to the Hague Chamber of Commerce, not the thief.

   So this golden clover must be temporarily impounded. "

   "As for the magic stone, I can't return it to you for a while, I hope you can understand.

   After all, most of the magic stones you paid for have already been handed over to the thief by the Golden Anchor Auction House. "

  Maud's expression darkened, and he was about to question.

   But Hart was the first to continue:

   "Of course, no matter whether the thief can be recovered or not, I will try my best to ensure your interests."

  Maud's lips moved, but after all, he didn't continue to speak.

   He would rather Hart be angry at him than Hart answer him so sternly.

   He is a wise man.

   Hart said he would try to protect his interests.

   But he knew very well that it was just perfunctory.

   But what can he do, he is just a junior apprentice.

The only special thing about    is that I met some people because I was a guide at the pier.

   His face was gloomy, but he didn't give up in his heart.

How can    give up?

   It can be said that he spent the first half of his life working hard for this golden four-leaf clover.

   And this potion that can improve his aptitude also determines the rest of his life.

  How could he give up?

   Hart saw the unwillingness in Maud's eyes, and frowned slightly in his heart.

When    came, he had already investigated.

  Maud is a wizard born and bred on Bananca Island. Because of his work, he has made many friends and has a wide range of contacts.

   is not a foreign wizard who is easy to bully.

   Hart sighed slightly in his heart, his status as a law enforcement team not only brought benefits to himself, but also brought restrictions.

   Otherwise, a junior wizard apprentice like Maud would not need to be treated so politely.

   But Bananka shamans valued the image of Bananka Island harshly.

   Solving Maud's junior wizard apprentice is no problem.

   But if this leads to the damage to the image of the Golden Anchor Auction House and the law enforcement team...

   He was reluctant to take such a risk, even if it was just a little bit.

   After all, you must know that there were gangs in Bananka Island long ago.

   And now... they've all turned into chambers of commerce.

   Those who do not understand the rules have long since disappeared.

   "Lord Hart." Mark from the Hague Chamber of Commerce listened to their conversation and asked him suspiciously with a golden four-leaf clover, "What about this golden four-leaf clover?"

   "Store and keep our Maude well, and try to catch the thief as soon as possible."

   "Okay." Mark understood and carefully put away the golden four-leaf clover.

   Obviously, Hart in front of him changed his attention again.

   seems to be out of some concerns, and he doesn't plan to choose to take Maud's golden four-leaf clover directly, and instead continues to try to find that target.

  Mark sighed slightly in his heart, recalling yesterday.

   Yesterday, the three of them were chatting at the Golden Anchor Auction House.

  White-robed auctioneer Eli, after seeing the portrait, mentioned to them that he had also seen the target in the portrait. And undoubtedly revealed that the target was the owner of the golden four-leaf clover that was auctioned at yesterday's auction.

   Finally, Eli asked him curiously—

   "Why does the Hague Gang want this man?"

   When he was about to answer truthfully, Hart, who was next to him, answered first:

   "Because he took a potion from the Hague Chamber of Commerce!"

   Then he turned his head and gave him a wink, and said with a smile:

   "Are you right, Mark?"

   There is no doubt that he finally echoed Hart's words.

   This is nothing to tangle.

The    target killed two members of their Hague gang, which was the target they wanted to deal with.

   Now to find out that he is carrying a treasure is just the icing on the cake.

   He was just distressed to be known by Hart.

   Since then, the Hague Chamber of Commerce will inevitably give him a share of the pie, and naturally his commission will be less.

   "Mark, the task of searching for the target still requires a lot of effort from your Hague Chamber of Commerce." Hart smiled at him.

   Then he got closer and whispered in a low voice:

   "After all, if I seek the help of the law enforcement team, I will inevitably have to give other people a piece of the pie.

   So, you The Hague will no doubt get less, you see. "

   "Yes... As far as I know, the gang has increased the search for the target." Mark replied quickly.

   I felt more and more regretful that I agreed to Hart's help yesterday.

  Hart smiled and said again: "I'm not taking it for nothing. If the law enforcement team needs to come forward at that time, just call me."

   said here, his tone changed, full of self-confidence:

   "The target is just a wizard from out of town, with little power. As long as we find him and control the wind, it's not for us to knead."

  Mark nodded.

  If they do it with the Hague gang, maybe it can't guarantee complete success, but add Hart from the law enforcement team.

   That target can never escape their palms.

"correct."

   At this moment, Hart seemed to be thinking of something, pointed to Maud next to him, and suddenly said to Mark:

   "Mark, show the portrait to Maud."

   He turned his head and smiled at Maud:

   "In terms of people who have dealt with each other, the two of us together may not have as many as you. Maybe you have seen the thief."

  Maud took the portrait and unfolded it.

   His pupils shrank slightly and he was about to open his mouth.

   He heard a familiar voice next to him.

   "Looks like you guys are looking for me?"

  Colin walked towards them, no longer hiding his face, and appeared directly in front of Hart and Mark.

   looks calm and calm. He was tired of running away and didn't want to endure it any longer.

   Your own thinking may have gone wrong in the first place.

   Now that the rules on Bananca Island are clear, it's time to deal with it!

  Hart looked at Colin, and couldn't help but be startled, but he didn't respond for a rare moment.

   On the side, Mark didn’t think so much. He looked at Colin, smiled in surprise, and shouted:

   "How dare you throw yourself into the net, the thief who stole the golden clover of our Hague Chamber of Commerce."

   "Oh." Colin smiled lightly, "How do you prove that the golden four-leaf clover belongs to your Hague Chamber of Commerce, not mine?"

  Mark heard his naive words, with a mocking smile on his face, and continued:

   "Then how do you prove that the golden four-leaf clover belongs to you, not our Hague Chamber of Commerce?"

   He sneered inwardly, ready to watch Colin try to prove it to him.

   Finally letting Colin know it was all in vain.

   But he did not wait for Colin to prove the words.

   heard Colin continue:

   "Since we can't argue, no one can prove..."

   "The man next to me is the law enforcement team, why don't we let the law enforcement team investigate and find out the truth?"

  Mark froze for a moment, but then sneered.

The wizard in front of    did not know where he came from, but he was so innocent and childish.

   "Yes." He said without hesitation, "Then let the adults of the law enforcement team judge."

   Da Zhang Ha
