Chapter 845: The Waves of a Small Thing
After saying goodbye to Kant, the accountant turned and walked down the stairs. When the menu was handed over to the chef, the accountant was still pondering Kant’s last question: in answering that question, the accountant lied to him. In fact, the waiter was assigned to pick up the soldiers at the gate of the city.
Ask the accountant why he uses invented excuses to cover up insignificant facts. Probably because his heart is full of unknowability about the situation around him.
In case this is the task that Kant entrusted to Bundak and Abel, and Bundak and Abel handed over the reception to themselves in order to go to the pharmacy. Then wouldn't they be scolded by Kant, recalling the relaxed look of Bundak and Abel before they went out. Felit didn't want to ruin their happy atmosphere because of his slip of the tongue.
I just simplified the process of this matter to avoid trouble. Phillip thought so in his heart.
It's just that the look in Kant's eyes when he said goodbye made him feel uneasy all the time.
It seemed that his lie was seen through by the other party the moment he uttered it, but the other party did not wake up his dazed self.
"I didn't do anything wrong, did I?" Phillip read softly.
Felipe stood back at the counter, ready to concentrate on making the books. As a result, his waiter led a group of armored soldiers into the door of the hotel.
"Mr. Philett, here you are." A waiter stepped forward and whispered in Philett's ear.
"Thank you for your hard work. There will be a reward during dinner. Hurry up and change your uniform." The cashier nodded to the other waiters and instructed.
"Yes." Three or four waiters greeted the soldiers cheerfully and left.
A soldier who looked like the team leader stepped forward and said hesitantly, "Listen to those people just now: His Majesty Kant, they are all in your store."
"Yes, Commander Bandak and Captain Abel have prepared a guest room for you to rest." The accountant replied respectfully: "You can go upstairs to rest as long as you have taken the key."
"That's really great." The leading soldier exhaled and said, "However, we still want to meet the captain first."
"This." The accountant found the keys to the guest room and put them on the counter for the soldiers to take away. After hearing what the team leader said, he replied: "Master Abel and Lord Bundak have just left, and Lord Kant is still taking a lunch break. I should not see you for the time being."
The soldier leader frowned and said: "You don't let us see the real person, how can we believe that Mr. Kant and his party are indeed in your store?"
"Oh," the accountant thought for a while, and reluctantly took out the three gold coins that Abel had handed over to him from the box on the counter, and explained: "This is the room fee that Mrs. Abel paid in advance for you. If you don’t believe me, you can come and see for yourself. If you don’t believe me, I can only ask you to sit in this lobby for a while until Mr. Bundak and the others come back. Mr. Kant is taking a lunch break. As the service staff in the store, we are I won't take the initiative to wake him up."
The soldier leader took the gold coin and looked at it for a while. After seeing the head of the current king of the Elven Kingdom on the back of the gold coin. Wei Wei nodded and said, "I believe in you."
"Get the key yourself." The accountant nodded and introduced to the soldiers: "The medium-sized guest room is for six people, and there are a total of twelve rooms. The people who stay are arranged by you."
"Thank you." The team leader picked up all the keys on the counter and distributed them to the team captains. And ordered the soldiers: "Everyone, carry your luggage back to the guest room first, and rest for a while if you want to rest. We will gather again at dinner time. Disband!"
"Yes!" The soldiers replied in unison.
After the soldiers packed their luggage and left in groups of three or four, only the team leader and accountant remained in the hotel lobby.
The cashier leaned on his elbow and stood by the counter to settle the accounts. The team leader sat down at the teahouse by the door and drank the free tea provided by the store.
After the two had been together quietly for a while, Felit looked up and found that the team leader was still on the seat, drinking tea while looking at the door, as if waiting for something. Then he took the initiative to talk and said, "I said, what's your name?"
"Kerry." The soldier replied, turning his head to look at him.
"Kerry, my name is Philett." The cashier waved to him and said, "Why don't you go back to the guest room to rest?"
"I want to wait here for Commander Bundak." Kerry responded.
Felipe glanced at the sky in the sky, and it was already evening. However, there is still a long time before Bundak and Abel return.
"They will come back in about two hours, and I will ask my waiter to notify you at that time." The accountant suggested: "You go back to your room to rest first, you drove here in a carriage after getting off the boat, right? There is a bathroom in the room where you can take a bath, you can relax here."
Kerry was silent for a long time after hearing what Felipe said. After reluctantly looking at the threshold, he walked to the counter and said to Felit, "My room is No. 308. Please send someone to inform me after Commander Bundak returns to the hotel."
"Okay, I see." The accountant nodded.
"Thank you." After Kerry bowed slightly to the cashier, he turned around and was about to go up the stairs, but he didn't expect his stomach to make a 'gurgling' sound at this time.
"By the way, you've been on your way today, so you haven't eaten much lunch, have you?" Felit said thoughtfully, "I'll ask the kitchen to prepare some meals for you."
Kerry stood there silently, a blush stained her cheeks. He said softly, "Thank you."
"It's okay." When Felit passed by his side, he patted the other person's shoulder with his hand and comforted him: "Marching is a very hard work."
After saying this, he turned and walked into the back kitchen. Instructed the chef in the back kitchen to prepare a steak set meal for 70 people.
After dealing with this matter, he returned to the counter and said to Kerry: "Now you can go back to your room to rest, as I said, take a good bath. The lunch will be delivered to you in an hour Room."
"Okay." Kerry took out a few silver coins from his pocket, and said to the cashier, "This is the meal fee."
"It doesn't matter, this lunch is regarded as a free gift from the hotel in order to welcome you." Felit did not accept the coin handed over by Kerry, but waved his hand and refused.
"But." Kerry insisted with a troubled expression on his face, "No, I still have to ask you to accept it. We won't eat overlord's meal."
Chapter 846: The Rekindling of Heart
"It doesn't matter." Felit returned Kerry's hand, shook his head and said, "If your captain finds out: I took your money for meals. The business you brought, I can't do it. Then I have to apologize to the owner of the store."
Under some "threats" from Felit, Kerry finally took back the money in his hand and thanked Felit: "Thank you."
"It's okay, let's go to rest now." Felit said with a smile.
"En." Kerry didn't say anything more, and then he left politely.
"The place where you live is on the third floor, don't go wrong." Felit shouted and reminded Kerry.
Kerry glanced back, nodded, and continued climbing the steps of the stairs.
When Kerry first appeared in front of Felix, Felix fell in love with the child. Because there is a tenacity in his eyes, persistent and tenacious. Such eyes appeared on a disheveled 18-year-old human soldier, which was indeed eye-catching.
In the process of talking with Kerry, Fletcher discovered that he was very introverted. This gave birth to infinite curiosity.
Why is there such a dazzling light in the eyes of a young child, even if he is so introverted, he still becomes the leader of the soldiers.
Countless guessing thoughts flew through Felit's mind, reminding him of his original intention of opening a hotel together with the brigade orc boss. They want a stable life and a firm foothold in this small town. I also want to meet all kinds of people and digest their experiences into my own development experience.
When such an idea was first proposed, it wore an aura of idealism.
Unknowingly, not only him, but even the hotel owner never mentioned a single word about this.
Felite is a half-orc. According to human age, he is already thirty-eight years old. But because of the eyes of a young human soldier, in his heart, the flame of going out and wandering was ignited.
Feeling this emotion, Felit looked up at the sky outside the window. There are no legends of the origin of species that form a system on this continent. So most races think they are made by God.
In Felipe's mind: that soldier just now was a masterpiece of God, otherwise how could he have been so strongly infected in a short period of time.
"God, should I believe that this is your arrangement?" Philet muttered silently.
Although he has reached middle age, he has not married yet. His parents had left him long ago for another world, and now, apart from the position of hotel clerk, he had no obligation to fulfill his obligations.
He can put everything down generously, pick up his luggage, and go out for a walk.
In the afternoon of this day, Felipe pushed away the ledgers that were piled up in front of him on weekdays. Standing at the counter with his head propped up, he imagined everything that happened after he went out and wandered: what kind of adventures he would encounter, what kind of people he would meet, where would the end of his life be, when others mentioned his name, what would he say? What.
Unknowingly, the window has been shrouded in night. The lobby of the hotel also became dark.
Felite, who was swimming in fantasy, forgot to light a candlestick on his table. As a result, when Bundak and Abel walked into the store, they were taken aback by his figure in the corner.
"Why is it so dark?" Abel wondered as he walked towards the store, and when he saw Felipe who was silent at the counter, he screamed, "Ah! This is Felit?"
Felit was awakened from the fantasy, and his body trembled with Abel's scream. He looked up at the two of them and said, "Ah, you are back."
"Fillett! It's really you!" Abel walked to the counter, lit the candlestick, carefully confirmed the appearance of the person in front of him, and asked suspiciously: "Did you fall asleep just now? I'm going with Bandak I didn't even notice you when I came in."
"Why is it so dark in the store, is something wrong?" Bandak asked concerned.
"It's okay. You're right, I fell asleep just now." Felit hurriedly waved his hands and said, "It was dark when I woke up, and no one turned on the lights in the store."
"Where are the people in the store?" Abel asked, looking around.
"Before I sent the waiters to receive the soldiers at the gate of the city, it has been two hours since they came back. They should be preparing for dinner." Felit glanced at the stopwatch in his arms and said.
"So that's how it is." Bandak nodded and said, "You mean, the soldiers are already staying in the guest room?"
"Yes, they have been on the road all day, and they should have finished their lunch by now, and they are taking a rest." Felit thought for a while, and said: "There was a child named Kerry who said that he would stay in the lobby all the time. Wait until you come back. I also persuaded him to go upstairs. He seems to be the leader of the team or something."
"That's right, Kerry is here." Bundak's eyes lit up, and he said, "He's usually a bit dull, and he's not good at communicating with people. But he still has a good heart, and he is also excellent in completing tasks. "
"I think he seems to be quite young. Did the Calradia barracks start recruiting at such an early age?" Felit asked suspiciously.
Bundak saw that Felett was somewhat curious about Carrie, so he patiently explained: "Carrie seems to be eighteen years old this year. In fact, according to the normal procedure: eighteen years old can be officially Join the army. It’s just that he is an orphan adopted by one of our mid-level officers. After the formation of the army, he has been kept in the barracks. I used to see him perform well when he practiced boxing with the officers. I asked him if he had any ambition to join the army , with the consent of him and his adoptive father, he was recruited into the army when he was sixteen years old."
"I see." Philip nodded and replied without saying anything more.
"Where is Your Majesty now?" Abel asked.
"His Majesty Kant should still be in the guest room." Felit replied, "It should be after waking up, eating the lunch sent by the kitchen, and now reading a book in the guest room."
"Your Majesty has been working hard recently." Abel lowered his head and said, "When you can relax, let him relax for a while."
"Have you bought the medicine yet?" Felit asked, remembering the purpose of the two going out.
"I got it." Speaking of this, both Abel and Bandak showed a hint of joy on their faces, and said happily: "Thank you for the few pharmacies you recommended for us. The scale is really amazing , after we raised the symptoms with the people at the pharmacy, they immediately found the medicine for us."
Chapter 847: The daily routine of the hotel
"For things like medicine, you still have to drink it to see what counts." Felit was also happy for them, but he still reminded him carefully: "Have you asked about the daily dose of medicine?"
"Well." Bandak nodded and said, "Not only that, the boss of the pharmacy also gave me a set of acupuncture, saying to seal the spread of poisonous gas on my body. Now I feel that my body has become my own again."
"That's really great." Felipe nodded and said, "No wonder you came back so late, and you even met a hermit who knows acupuncture."
"It happened by chance." Abel replied happily: "The medicine prescribed by the prescription has to be boiled for several hours. I wonder if I can borrow the stove from the hotel."
"Of course." Philett agreed, "As long as Lord Bundak's condition improves, you can rent the facilities in this shop to you whenever you want."
"Thank you." Bandak said heartily.
"It's all right." Felit said with a smile: "People outside your island really like to say 'thank you' or something. In fact, since we are already familiar friends, we don't need to be so polite in these details."
"Hehe." Bandak smiled helplessly, and explained: "Maybe it's a habit to say thank you. I really can't think of anything else to say except thank you."
"Then it's up to you." Felit said indifferently.
Abel glanced at the carriage parked at the door, and suddenly remembered that he hadn't cleaned up the stains that Bundak vomited in the carriage, so he took the initiative to say goodbye to Philett: "I'm sorry, Philett. We still have something urgent, I will bid farewell first."
"Huh? Where are you going?" Felit looked suspiciously at the two who were walking towards the door of the hotel, and asked.
"We." Abel turned around and replied awkwardly, "We want to take the carriage back to the shed."
"It doesn't matter. A groom will come and take it away later. You don't need to do this yourself." Felit walked out of the counter and explained kindly.
"No, no, no, I think we still have to do it ourselves." Bandak shook his head hastily and said: If the carriage is returned like this, then it's fine. You can't lose face in front of others.
The two left the lobby in a hurry, and Felit looked at the back of the two leaving with a puzzled face. After being dazed for a while, he walked to the corner of the lobby and lit the candlesticks of the hotel.
At this time, the smell of freshly cooked dishes came from the back kitchen.
Felit walked to the stove in the kitchen and asked the chef, "How long is it until dinner starts?"
"Master Accountant, in about ten minutes, all the dishes will be ready." The chef turned around and responded.
"That's good." Philip nodded and said, "The guests on the third floor will take over the kitchen on the second floor today. Don't forget to send someone to clean up the table."
"Yes." The head chef agreed.
After leaving his instructions, Felipe turned and left the kitchen. Notify the waiters who are busy in the yard to rush to the various restaurants to make meal preparations. Things like cleaning up and turning on the lights.
Most of the in-store affairs on weekdays are taken care of by Felit. The owner of the hotel is responsible for socializing outside.
Felit stood hesitantly by the banister of the stairs on the first floor, thinking in his heart: If he left the hotel, what kind of person the hotel owner would find to take over his job.
He and the hotel owner have been friends for many years. When they first bought this site, most of them were borrowed funds from the hotel owner. Filitter put in only a fraction of the money. However, the owner of the hotel did not ask him to accompany him to go out to socialize because of his status as a cashier. Instead, he thoughtfully handed over the affairs of the hotel to him, while he was busy running outside.
When Felit thought he was fearless and could walk away. The cause sown by the innkeeper many years ago has blossomed in his heart.
Felit looked at the door of the hotel and realized that with his current strength, there was still a long way to go before crossing the threshold.
At dinner time, after Kant received the news of the arrival of the soldiers, he was not in a hurry to meet them. Instead, he walked to the dining room first and waited quietly for the arrival of the others.
Abel, who was washing the carriage with clean water by the shed, also smelled the smell of food coming from the hotel.
The dirt inside the carriage has been completely cleared by him, but there is still some smell left in the carriage, and Abel can only wipe the inner wall of the carriage inch by inch.
Bundak stood aside, responsible for picking up the trash.
"It's all because of you. We should have stayed in the restaurant at this time." Abel said angrily, "Where would it be like now, cleaning the carriage in this shed, and the whole body is stained with a stench."
"Isn't it because you insisted that you must ride in your carriage? I think you did it on purpose." Bandak responded.
The two lashed out at each other, unknowingly prolonging the time for cleaning the carriage.
Until Bundak and Abel changed into neat clothes and appeared in the restaurant. The soldiers in the dining room were already feasting. Only Kant is still waiting for them.
"Why are you coming so slowly?" Kant asked, frowning.
"Bundakta."
"Don't talk about it while eating." Abel was about to explain, but was cut off by Bundak midway.
"Hmph." Abel snorted lightly, and then lost the will to continue.
Kant smelled a strange smell floating on them, and glanced at Abel's face again. It is clear in my heart.
"You guys." Kant said disgustedly: "Forget it, Kerry is having dinner with us today, he has been waiting for you for so long, you have to say hello anyway."
"Ah." Abel, who was stirring the salad, raised his head in surprise and said, "Kerry?"
Then his eyes moved to a young soldier on the table, and he continued to ask, "Are you Kerry?"
"Yes." Kerry met Abel a few times on the coast before, but he only knew that he was the leader of the elves' team. Because there is no work that needs to be handed over to Abel, they are not familiar with each other. At this moment, he could only nod shyly in response.
"I heard Bundak mention you. He said that you grew up in a military camp and you are very talented as a soldier." Bundak said with a smile.
"Thank you." Kerry nodded shyly.
"It's rare for me to hear him praise others like that." Abel continued to stir the salad while saying, "Sorry, we were in a hurry before the meal, so we came late."
Chapter 848: Chatting at the dinner table
"It's okay." Kerry clenched his fists nervously,
"Kerry is a stranger, so he looks shy." Bundak explained to Kerry from the side: "It's okay, Kerry. Now that we're here, you can start eating with confidence. do not worry about it."
"Yes." Kerry looked back at Bundak and nodded in response.
The amount of time Bandak spent with him was second only to his adoptive father. So Bundak is also one of the two closest people to Kerry in the army.
"You went to the pharmacy in the town today, did you find anything?" Kant asked Bundak and Abel next to him after seeing Carrie started to eat dinner in peace.
"I found out, I met a doctor with rich experience." Bandak immediately responded: "He prescribed some medicines for me, and also gave me acupuncture and so on. And it got under control."
"Did the doctor tell you anything?" Kant continued to ask.
"I didn't say anything, I just said that this kind of poison is temporarily unsolvable." Abel replied: "However, we can make good use of the method of slowing down other poisons to control its spreading trend."
"That's fine." Kant nodded approvingly, "Although the Yinchi worm is a rare product that has been bred, it seems that Yao Wang's experiment is still within a controllable range."
"Your Highness, we heard that you stayed in the guest room all day after we left today. Is it because you have been too busy recently that your body has been damaged?" Bandak asked worriedly.
"That's not the case. I do have a lot of work going out recently." Kant said with a relieved smile, "It's just that I think it's good for my body. It's just that I've been with people for a long time. I just want to go back to my own space for a while.”
"Since the body is fine, we can rest assured." Abel didn't know Kant's way of decompression, but he was also very worried about Kant's physical condition, and he could see that he took the initiative to stop and rest. Abel was also happy in his heart.
"Excuse me. What is the Gu poison you mentioned just now?" A weak voice of inquiry came from the side of the three of them.
Bundak looked back in surprise and saw Kerry looking at him awkwardly, and said in a panic: "It's nothing, it's just."
"Commander Bandak has been poisoned by a very rare poison," Kant said at this time: "Now his body is not as good as before, and after two months, he will still be swallowed by the eggs in his body." As consciously as possible.”
"What?" Carrie's eyes conveyed disbelief. At this moment, he covered his mouth and screamed.
"Kerry, don't worry." Bandak didn't want to overthrow Kant's statement, because he knew that his previous cover-up was the real situation. At this moment, he could only say softly, "My brother's illness will recover."
Abel raised his head and glanced at Bundak, opened his mouth, but still held back the words on his lips.
"Really? Brother Bundak." Kerry's emotions became fragile, and he asked Bundak with red eyes.
"Well, yes." Kant nodded aside, "As long as we stand by his side, God can't take him away."
"Hmm." Kerry clenched her fists, stopped her tears, nodded and said, "Brother Bundak, can you tell me how to cure your illness?"
"Just find the bastard who tricked Bandak and force him to hand over the antidote. Bandak can continue to live." Abel said: "The important step to achieve this goal is that our Did the eyeliner laid by the gang in the city find any clues of the murderer?"
"I will go all out for this action." Kerry said resolutely.
Bundak looked at a child who was ten years younger than himself and almost watched him grow up, showing the responsibility that an adult should have at this moment.
The inner emotions have also become complicated.
"You don't need to participate in this matter yourself." Bandak said: "Let your more experienced soldiers do it."
"No, I must go." Kerry shook his head and said, "If I don't go, I won't feel that I have paid for this action, and I will regret it for the rest of my life."
"Okay then." Bundak reluctantly agreed, "But you must be careful."
"Yes." Carrie agreed.
"We haven't disclosed this matter to other soldiers." Abel warned: "In order that the soldiers will not have too much psychological burden when they are in action, Kerry, you can't let Bundak's condition go away." To anyone among the soldiers."
They ignored Carrie listening quietly by their side before, so they accidentally leaked the news.
"Well, I see." Kerry nodded.
"By the way, Carrie, how did you find this place today?" Kant asked after swallowing the food in his mouth.
"It was the waiters at the hotel who came to pick us up. When they saw us, they told us: Commander Bandak and Captain Abel personally ordered us." Kerry replied in detail.
"I see." Kant nodded lightly and said.
Then he looked around, and after not seeing the accountant, he lowered his head to look at the food in the bowl.
"It's true that we asked Philet to arrange it." Abel nodded and admitted: "Your Highness, what's the matter?"
"It's nothing, I just want to advise you: don't get in touch with Felit in the future." Kant said lightly: "If you need help with anything in the future, please ask the owner of the hotel first."
"The owner of the hotel doesn't really stay in the store." Bundak thought for a while, and said, "But, why would you think of letting us have less contact with Felit, Your Highness?"
"I saw that there were fewer waiters in the store today, so I asked him strangely: Where have all the waiters in the store gone? As a result, he told me: The waiters in the store have gone to the gate of the city to buy goods. And Kerry just now Said: The waiter in the hotel is going to pick them up." Kant said word by word.
After listening to this passage, Bandak and Abel looked at each other, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Your Majesty. About this."
"You don't need to explain, what the accountant thinks in his heart, and how you asked him. I know it all in my heart." Kant waved his hand, interrupting Abel's explanation. And said: "You may not understand my decision very well now, but if you think about it carefully, you will know: When Felix is doing things, he always arranges his position in the safest place. It doesn't spill over to him. It's a fear of taking responsibility."
