Chapter 889: The waiter I met by chance
"Terrible."
After taking a bath, Bandak soaked comfortably in a wooden barrel filled with hot water for a while. The bathroom in the guest room has a window facing the street. It was noon at this time, and the noise of pedestrians on the street slapped Bundak's ears like a tidal wave.
The sunlight from the sky is reflected on the water in front of Bundak. If you don’t care about the things that sink to the bottom of the bucket, the quality of the hot water provided by the store is still very good: fresh and transparent.
"It should be considered spring now." Bandak looked at the ripples in the water and said softly.
In the process of extracting the antidote from Pique, they have already encountered quite a few members of the dark side organization.
What happened in the guild yesterday has been blocked by the goblins. Even the politicians who were present at the time were ordered not to spread the strife in the guild.
So, among those who know the inside story, whether it is the Goblin Nation or the Dragon Clan and the Dwarf Clan, Kant and the others should be the ones who want to contact them immediately.
Bundak, who had just escaped from a life-threatening disaster, didn't think too much about what would happen next.
In his heart, he was just full of gratitude for life.
While Bundak was still recuperating quietly in the bathroom, Kant and Abel had quietly left the guest room.
The two walked slowly to the entrance of the spiral staircase, and Abel leaned out and looked at the lobby on the first floor.
The number of diners who came to eat in the store was much less than the previous few days, most of them were affected by the raids of the orc men.
"Your Majesty, the chef you mentioned will disappear." Abel spoke to Kant while paying attention to the whereabouts of the waiters who were active in the lobby.
"We should see you again." Kant thought for a while and replied, "I just don't know what the scene will be like then."
"What a mysterious person." Abel said with emotion.
The two of them have inquired a lot about the chef of the restaurant in the past three days. It's just that there is very little news.
The waiters in the entire hotel seem to be unable to contact this mysterious figure. Even today, a messenger walks into the store saying that he has been asked to deliver a letter of resignation. And this letter was indeed written by the chef.
"Let's go upstairs and have a look." Kant lingered at the stairs for a while, and after making a decision in his heart, he said to Abel.
"Above?" Abel asked softly, pointing his finger in the direction of the fourth floor.
"Well. Let's go." Kant nodded. Then he opened his legs and walked up the stairs leading to the fourth floor.
"Wait, Your Majesty." After looking around, Abel bowed his waist and called to Kant who was walking forward.
Kant turned around and looked at him. After that, the two cautiously climbed up to the fourth floor in the same posture.
"Eh? Lord Kant, and Lord Abel?" A familiar voice came to the two of them, and Abel who was following Kant couldn't help being startled.
Kant reacted quickly and crawled on the stairs, pretending to be looking for something. After seeing the figure gradually approaching him, he straightened up with a smile on his face, looked at the half-orc man in front of him, and responded, "Nite, is it you?"
"Why are the two adults here?" Nite stopped at the same level as Kant and asked suspiciously.
"Abel lost my ring accidentally, and we both searched many places but couldn't find it. We just thought about whether the ring fell on the stairs." Kant explained quickly.
"But this is the stairs leading to the fourth floor." Nite turned his head and glanced upstairs, and asked puzzled after confirming that it was indeed the fourth floor.
"Fourth floor. Ah, fourth floor!" Abel, who was standing aside, said, "We were too busy looking at the stairs, and didn't pay much attention. Otherwise, how would we find this place?"
"Oh, so that's the case." Nite nodded in a daze and said, "The fourth floor is dedicated to our boss. Adults try to avoid appearing in such places."
"Yeah." Kant's expression also became serious.
"Lord Kant, the ring you lost may be able to find it for you with the help of the waiter in the store." Nite enthusiastically suggested to Kant after explaining the rules of the store in a serious manner.
"No need." Kant looked him up and down, waved his hand and said, "It's not very important, it's just that I bought a gift from a vendor when I first came to the town. However, I have a question to ask you ?”
"What question?" Nite asked guiltily.
"Why are you here?" Kant stared straight at Nite and asked.
"I'm here to pack things for the boss." After some hesitation, Nit confessed frankly.
"Have you seen Trubin?" Abel asked loudly after hearing Nite's answer, his eyes widened.
"Hush!" Nit quickly put his index finger in front of him, made a silent gesture, and said anxiously: "Please keep your voice down. Mr. Trubin has a special status, I think you all know that. This time he was going to hand over the affairs of the store to me because he trusted my ability to handle affairs. Please don't spread this matter."
"When did you meet?" Kant noticed at this moment that Niter was carrying a square package on his left hand, which was probably packed for Trubin.
"The day before." Nite was very awkward when he was questioned by the two of Kant.
"What did he ask you to bring to him?" Kant frowned and continued to ask.
"This..." Nite hesitated all the time, and didn't say the rest.
"Such a small package, wouldn't it be gold, silver and emeralds containing some small items?" Abel guessed.
After hearing this sentence, Nite hugged the package tightly in his arms, and looked at Kant and Abel with disbelief in his eyes.
"It seems that Trubin really wants to leave this town." Abel said immediately, "I guess he won't come back in the future."
"The boss will come back." Nite said, wanting to cry but without tears: Abel's words hit his inner worries.
"You're going to see him now, aren't you?" Kant quietly stared at the young waiter in front of him, and after seeing the wet corners of his eyes, he felt a trace of regret in his heart.
"You guys." Nite swallowed, and said uneasily.
"Don't you think we will rob you of the hard currency you prepared for Trubin?" Abel couldn't stand it anymore, and woke up Nit with one sentence.
Chapter 890: Differences in Thinking Angle
Nit looked back and forth between the faces of Abel and Kant, and was finally overwhelmed by the calmness shown by the two. Taking a breath, he replied: "Now I don't think so. However, I still can't disclose the information about meeting the boss to you."
"It's okay." Kant shook his head lightly and responded.
After saying this, Kant said goodbye to Nit: "You are busy with your work, so we will leave first."
"This..." Nite looked at Kant's back and said helplessly.
Abel glanced at Kant, winked at Nit, and left with his legs up.
The two returned to their guest room with brisk steps.
"Your Majesty, do you need to send someone to follow Nit?" Abel asked Kant who was arranging his coat after closing the door of the guest room.
"No need." Kant waved his hand and said, "It's not necessary."
"Okay then." Abel patted the dust on his body, and hung his coat on the hanger in the entrance. Continued: "Trubin chose to leave at this time, and it is really decisive."
Kant beckoned Abel to sit down at the tea table, and poured a cup of tea for Abel after hearing this sentence. Then he responded: "The big trees in the supervision station have all fallen down, and the business on this street has become difficult. If you don't leave at this time, when will it be appropriate to stay? It's just a pity that the boy he adopted A group of half-orc orphans."
"The business in the store is indeed not as prosperous as before." Abel said after taking a sip of tea, "However, if Nit and the others only want to earn food and clothing, the favor left by the boss is not bad. "
"Hehe, maybe Nite can transform into a second boss." Kant glanced at him, raised his teacup, and said.
"That's not good," Abel said with a frown after a pause.
"The resources used in the store now can't be borrowed without the owner's own connections." Kant judged: "If people are in the store, if they leave like this, this hotel will not be what it used to be. gone."
"I see." Abel said with a bow. There was a sigh in his tone.
The two didn't talk to each other until the first cup of tea was finished.
"Go and see Bundak." Kant did not continue to focus on this topic, but told Abel: "If staying in the room is too boring, it's better to just walk around."
"Okay." Abel nodded. Then he stood up and walked to Bundak's guest room.
"Boom!" Abel raised his hand and knocked on the door, shouting loudly, "Bundak, are you asleep?"
I stayed quietly outside the door for a while, but never heard a response from inside the door. Abel hesitated for a while, and finally tried to unlock the door.
The moment he opened the door, a white mist rushed towards him, hot.
"Huh?" Abel couldn't help but wondered. And raised his hand to touch his face that had been attacked by the heat: it was water vapor.
After recovering, Abel found that his field of vision had been filled with white mist.
The culprit of all this is Bundak who is sleeping soundly in the barrel.
"Bundak! What are you doing!" Abel ran to the bathroom in a hurry, and immediately shouted angrily after seeing the continuous hot water pipe and Bundak motionless in the bathtub.
The water accumulated in the bathroom has overflowed Abel's ankles, so Bundak fell asleep an hour and a half ago.
Abel stood on tiptoe and turned the switch of the hot water pipe completely. After the water flow gradually diminished through the drain, he looked down at the soaked leather boots on his feet. Angrily walked to the side of the barrel, stretched out his hands and shook Bandak's upper body, and shouted: "Bandaker! Wake up!"
"Oh, Abel, why are you here?" Bundak was woken up like this, and when he opened his eyes in a daze: he didn't seem to know what he had done. I was just a little puzzled by the appearance of Abel.
"Look at this bathroom." Abel's anger was blocked back to his chest by the expression on Bundak's face, and he said sullenly after taking a few deep breaths.
"Ah? Ah!!!" Bundak looked at where he could see without knowing why. After discovering the messy scene around him, he couldn't help shouting in surprise: "How could this be?"
"You bastard! Sleeping in the bathtub without turning off the water!" Abel sat down on the low stool by the bathtub and explained roughly to Bundak: "If we come back later, or we don't expect to watch over you. You're going to drown yourself."
"Thank you." Bundak said shyly. Being drowned by himself, if he died in this way, even if he ascended to heaven, he would be ridiculed by his comrades.
"Hurry up and get out of the bathtub." Abel pointed to Bundak's hands and said, "Look, your hands are wrinkled from the soak."
"Okay." Bundak stood up from the bathtub with a "shua", and wrapped his lower body with a towel. Walked to the sink and started to wash.
"Are you hungry? I'll ask the waiter to prepare some meals." After Abel got angry, he was still more concerned about Bandak's recovery.
"A little bit." Bundak was gargling his mouth, so it was not very convenient to speak, so he just turned around and pointed to his stomach, and replied briefly to Abel.
"Yeah." Abel nodded and stood up slowly. When he was about to leave, he glanced into the bathtub where Bundak had soaked in. After seeing the dark green dirt, he frowned and asked, "These are the poisons expelled from your body?"
"Hmm." Bandak looked in the direction of Abel, and nodded after understanding what he was referring to.
"Pike told us: In fact, the eggs of 'Yinchi' left your body the moment you drank the antidote. But their toxins are mainly accumulated in their excrement. So you need to After drinking the antidote for a few days, constantly clean up the toxins from the body."
Bandak turned around slowly, looked at Abel, and asked in amazement: "You mean, those eggs are excreted in my body?"
"Yeah." Abel covered his face with a weird smile and said, "Let me just say, why do you feel that you swelled a lot a few days ago, but it's a good thing that you can lose weight now."
Bandak fully understood that this kid was deliberately teasing himself. But I really can't bear to imagine the scene where the eggs are excreted in my body.
Chapter 891: Talking about the past few days
Abel's words made him want to wash his body again.
"Get out, I'm going to take another shower." Bandak said while pushing Abel out of the door.
"It's still washed!" Abel was surprised for a moment, after all, what he said was just for teasing.
"I won't be able to take it if I don't take a shower." After Bundak pushed Abel out of the bathroom door, he closed the bathroom door with a bang.
Abel was left standing alone outside the bathroom door and shouted helplessly: "Are you going to wash off the outermost layer of skin too? Just wash it casually. You just made a lot of water, be careful. The waiter downstairs doesn't supply water to our room, and His Majesty Kant and I can't take a bath casually at night."
"Understood!" Bandak's voice came from the bathroom.
"Sigh." Abel walked out of Bundak's room shrugging his shoulders. After seeing Kant's eyes, he explained helplessly, "Bundak is still taking a bath."
"Why are your boots wet? Hurry up and change them to clean ones." Kant didn't pay much attention to Abel's explanation, but nodded lightly. But after spotting the watermark that Abel stepped on the floor with sharp eyes, he suggested in a worried voice.
"Yes." Abel nodded, walked carefully to the entrance, and changed out his soaked boots and cotton socks. After tidying up everything cleanly, he sat back to the seat next to Kant and took the hot tea that Kant handed to him.
"Your Majesty." Abel glanced at Bundak's room, then looked at Kant and asked, "Then shall we go to the fourth floor to collect the evidence left by Trubin?"
"Forget it." Kant shook his head and said, "Since Trubin can think of asking Nit to pack his luggage for him, most of the evidence upstairs is worthless to us. If after that , Trubin’s identity was found out by the people on the island. Those things may be able to save this hotel.”
"Yeah." After thinking about it, Abel agreed with Kant's decision.
After the two looked at each other, Qiqi laughed. After that, I started chatting about other lighter topics.
After a while, Bundak came out of his room while wiping his hair with a towel.
"What are you talking about?" Bundak asked curiously after sitting down at the teahouse.
"It's nothing," Abel said with a smile, "I'm just talking about the first time I went to the island."
"Sounds very interesting." Bandak said with a smile: "However, when you first came to the island, Bandak, it should be when the Elf Kingdom just discovered that the dwarves had disappeared."
"Well." Abel responded: "At that time, I was just an ordinary soldier who joined the army. The leader of the team took us to this small town over the mountains. It seems to have happened last summer."
"So it's been so long." Bundak took a deep breath and said.
"You and I both came to this island for the first time this spring. Naturally, we will be surprised." Kant said amusedly to Bundak's reaction: "How is your body recovering?"
"By the way, I haven't told the waiter about lunch yet." Abel suddenly thought of this after hearing Kant's words, and said, "You guys chat first, I'll go say hello to the waiter."
"good."
After the voice fell, Abel immediately left the table and walked to the door of the guest room.
"Actually, I'm not very hungry." Banda Ke touched his stomach embarrassingly, and said, "It's just that after taking a bath, I suddenly feel that I have a little appetite."
"Hehe, other people take a bath to reduce their appetite, but you are the only one who feels hungry after taking a bath. It seems that this antidote will indeed make a big difference to your body." Kant looked Looking at the healthy Bundak in front of him, he was in a good mood. Talked a little more than usual.
"So that's how it is." Bandak covered his face, his ears were flushed.
Everyone knows that I usually eat a lot.
The antidote Pique gave was probably just to maintain the best condition of his body while detoxifying toxins, and replenish his vitality. It's just that when the curative effect lasted to the end, the feeling of hunger gradually emerged.
"Is there any inconvenience?" Kant asked Bundak after taking a sip of tea.
"There is nothing inconvenient. I feel that my body has become stronger again. On the contrary, a few days ago, I felt a very strange feeling, as if the things I came into contact with were not real. It's imaginary. There's no real sense of being 'alive.'"
During the presentation, Bandak's tone gradually became sad.
These were the words he was going to take to his grave. When Kant and Abel were comforting him, he also endured not expressing to them how painful he was.
Now that the Gu poison on his body has been cured, he can calmly speak out about the past. It's just that when I mentioned it, I still couldn't help bringing in the emotions at that time.
"Are you talking about...before you got it?" Kant's tone was very gentle. Now that I think about it, the strength that Bundak showed at that time: beyond his imagination.
"Well." Bandak nodded silently and responded, "Not everyone will have such an experience. Perhaps with this story, I will be able to be more aware when facing people who suffer from such accidents in the future. understand their feelings."
How kind! Kant was so choked by Bundak's words that he couldn't speak for a long time, so he could only read silently in his heart.
An existence that can transform the pain in oneself into the power to tolerate the pain of others. This is how good nature must be to have such an idea.
"Well, that's pretty good." Kant nodded to Bundak after thinking twice.
"Am I such an idiot?" Bandak laughed at himself. As a soldier, he has been reused since he entered the barracks, and has been promoted all the way, even becoming the commander of the army. What filled his life: only the tactics on the battlefield and the tasks Kant entrusted to him. He was in a position out of the reach of his peers, so naturally he didn't know how ordinary people of his age could live in peace with this world.
"I think that if people are lucky enough to be born in this world, they will definitely pay the corresponding price." Kant replied calmly: "But this world is so big, and the gods who created us out of selfishness will not exist in the world looking down on us." Heights."
Chapter 892: Lunch after recovery
"Your Majesty, what are you talking about?" Bundak was taken aback for a while, but he still couldn't figure out what Kant wanted to express in his words. At the end, he asked suspiciously.
"What I mean is, if you feel that being alive is a good thing, then live it well." Kant said with a smile: "As an unusual part of people, live well."
"Yes." After listening to Kant's words, Bundak's eyes overflowed with moisture. At the moment when Kant's words reached his heart, for some reason, a burst of sadness overflowed.
"Boom!" At this moment, both of them heard the sound of the door closing from the entrance. Abel, who had just left, led the waiter in, and the two of them worked together to lift the dining car up the steps of the entrance.
Kant glanced at the plates displayed on the dining car, and asked strangely, "Why are there so many dishes? Haven't we already had lunch?"
"I asked the waiter to prepare some sweets for afternoon tea." Abel explained with a smile: "But most of the dishes here are still prepared for Bundak. Didn't the doctor say it? You must eat the first meal when you wake up Just be full."
Kant thought for a while after hearing the words, and greeted the waiter: "Thank you for your hard work, we will send the dining car back to the back kitchen later."
"It's okay. Because Master Abel has been helping." The waiter took out the towel from the dining car, spread it flat on the tea table, and replied shyly.
"The store seems to be a little busy recently, so I asked him to bring this dining car upstairs with me." Abel's expression on his face was very clear, and he said frankly: "Young man, after finishing the tablecloth , leave the rest to us. Go and do your own work."
"Thank you, Lord Abel, I will take my leave first." After receiving Abel's instructions, the waiter stepped aside and bowed to leave.
Bandak personally sent the waiter to the door, and when he returned to the tea table transformed into a dining table, the three of them had already set up the tableware provided by the hotel.
After Abel lifted the lids of the dishes, Bundak exclaimed: "I can't eat these!"
"Don't worry, these are all made from the recipes I asked for from the doctor." Abel winked at Bundak and said, "Just don't worry about it."
"Hmm." Bundak swallowed and nodded.
"Have an aperitif first." Abel wrapped the champagne in the ice bucket in his hand with a towel. However, after seeing Kant's eyes, he stopped immediately and explained: "The doctor said that drinking alcohol in moderation is good for the body. Bundak, drink less."
Kant shook his head helplessly, and did not say anything to stop Abel's actions.
Bundak looked at Abel pouring wine for himself, and asked with a smile, "Will you get a good bottle of wine under my guise?"
"This..." Abel immediately covered up after discovering that his little thoughts had been punctured: "How is it possible, this is a good wine that I asked the clerk in the store to leave for me. It is just to celebrate your recovery from a long illness. "
After hearing Abel's explanation, Kant coughed twice amusedly, and joked, "Isn't your explanation the same as what Bandak just said?"
"Ah! I..." Abel was stunned for a moment, and after he realized it, he said discouragedly, "Well, Bundak is right."
"Hahahaha." Bundak and Abel looked at each other and laughed.
"Abel, I didn't realize you were a drunkard before?" Kant said jokingly after taking a sip of champagne.
"Of course I'm not an alcoholic." Abel said with a smile on his face, "It's just that your Majesty said that this wine is good, so I naturally want to try it."
"This wine." After taking a sip of champagne, Bundak said with a straight neck, "Why does it feel a bit strange? It's not quite the same as the wine I mentioned in the restaurant in Calradia."
"The blending method is just different." Kant waved his hand and said, "It's easier and easiest to drink this kind of wine. Bundak, you should eat the vegetables first."
"Hmm." Bandak put down his wine glass in approval, and rinsed his mouth with snow clam soup. Then he picked up the knife and fork at hand and chopped up a large piece of meat.
Abel was immersed in the atmosphere of the wine, and didn't pay much attention to Bundak's eating.
It wasn't until he was almost passed out that Abel realized that Bundak had cleaned up all the dishes in front of him. He drank the soup with satisfaction.
"You said you couldn't eat that much." Before he could finish his words, Abel fell down on the tea table with a "Boom!"
Kant was so frightened by the sound that he turned around. After seeing Abel's collapsed appearance, he sighed and said, "This guy obviously doesn't know how to drink."
"Let me help him back to the room." Bandak volunteered.
"Okay." Kant nodded lightly in agreement.
"Yeah." Bandak stood up from his position, helped Abel beside him onto his shoulders, and helped him walk to his guest room.
After watching the two of them leave, Kant looked at the desserts placed in front of Abel's place, and silently exchanged his empty plate with it. Picking up a silver spoon, he ate bit by bit.
Knowing that Bundak had placed Abel, when he returned to the main hall, there were still more than half of the pastries in front of him.
"Your Highness, haven't you already eaten pastries?" Bandak asked Kant suspiciously after sitting down.
"Well," Kant smiled and put down the tableware in his hand, and responded, "I thought I could eat some more, but I still couldn't finish Abel's portion."
"Leave it to me." Bandak smiled, moved the dessert placed in front of Kant to his own, and ate it with a fork.
Kant quietly watched him finish the dessert. At the end, he poured a cup of green tea for Bundak and asked, "Isn't it sweet? The desserts in this hotel taste good, but the sweet cream is added more some."
"It's okay." Bundak was so sweet, but he shook his head and denied.
"Have some tea." Kant advised Bundak, handing the teacup to Bundak.
After Banda Ke took the teacup, he immediately poured down a whole cup of hot tea. The sweet and greasy feeling in the mouth was finally diluted by the taste of the tea.
"Perhaps this dessert should be served with tea." Banda Ke couldn't help sighing as he recalled the fragrance and sweetness in his mouth.
"Hehe, what you said is right. You shouldn't be in such a hurry." Kant said with a smile.
Bundak stood up to clear the table, while Kant stacked the dishes and utensils neatly.
Chapter 893:
After tidying up everything, Bandak carried the dining car outside the door alone. When hesitating whether to call a waiter for help. The waiter who just appeared in the room has reached the stairs on the second floor and greeted Bundak: "Master Bundak, please put the dining car in the corridor. I and others will come and take it away of."
"Ah." Bandak nodded embarrassedly, and said, "Okay then, I'll trouble you."
"It's fine." The waiter replied with a smile.
Despite this, Bundak personally pushed the dining car near the stairs. I thought silently in my heart: the waiter in charge of cleaning up the room will also take him away after seeing the used dining car.
After confirming that the dining car was intact, Bundak patted the dust on his hands, turned and walked towards the guest room: the door of the guest room was still open. Kant came out of the bathroom with a pot of freshly brewed tea. Bundak turned back and asked, "Why did you come back so soon?"
"I met a waiter on the road and told me: just put the dining car in the corridor. Someone will clean it up later." Bandak changed the leather boots he used to go out. Barefoot walked to the tea table and sat down.
"Hmm." Kant asked Bundak after sitting down at the tea table, "It's as if water was splashed everywhere in the bathroom. What did you do?"
"That." Bundak was stunned, and explained embarrassingly: "I accidentally fell asleep while taking a bath. The switch of the hot water pipe was still on."
"So that's the case." Kant responded flatly: "After waking up this time, is it easy to get sleepy?"
"No." Bandak replied while thinking about it: "I feel that my spirit is not bad."
"I've sent someone to send a letter to the doctor in the hospital, asking him to come to the hotel at this time tomorrow to check you up." Kant confessed, "Don't let other pigeons go."
"Yes, Your Majesty. Is it the doctor from the elves?" Bandak recalled the scene of going to the pharmacy in the east city with Kant and Abel for medical treatment. Although the elf doctor seemed calm and reliable, at that time, he probably never thought of curing his illness in the past.
"Yeah." Kant nodded, took a sip of tea, and said, "The doctor seems to be very interested in how the worms on your body dissipated. Before you woke up, he had already come Twice."
"So that's the case." Bandak nodded clearly, "However, Pique gave me the antidote, and only that one dose. He came to see a doctor for me. What can you see?"
"I don't know about that." Kang De nodded lightly, and responded: "You also know that it takes a long time to come here from Dongcheng. It can be seen that the doctor sincerely wants to see you .”
"Well." Bandak nodded slightly: "Yes, Your Majesty. Do you know what the medicine Pique gave me? I really want to know."
The moment he drank the antidote, Bandak felt that his body was roaring like a tsunami. That kind of experience is probably something I will never forget in my life.
"I don't know." Kant glanced at Bundak and said, "Pike didn't mention this to us."
"Huh? I thought you would ask him." Bandak said unexpectedly. After all, his performance after drinking the antidote is really worrying.
"No." Kant recalled: "After you fainted, your hands turned dark green and began to detoxify outward. We were all shocked, but Pique also fainted at that time So Abel and I can only take care of the two of you separately. When you wake up, you two slept for a whole night."
"And after that?" Bundak asked nervously.
"After that, nothing happened." Kant raised his eyebrows and replied, "Pike left the city immediately after waking up. Of course, at that time we already knew that all the Gu poison in your body had been cleaned up. "
"I see." Bandak nodded and said, "The question about the antidote is really a mystery."
Kant raised the teacup on the table to his lips, and the steaming heat covered his eyes. It was impossible to see what was expressed in his eyes.
That night, after hearing the sound of Pique falling to the ground, Kant turned around quickly at a speed second to that of Abel. Watching Bandak drink the antidote in Pick's hand.
He actually didn't believe that Pique would just hand over the real antidote to them. So at that time, I also sweated for Kant.
Bandak's painful appearance after drinking the antidote made his heart shrink even more.
When Abel was in a hurry to appease Bandak, Kant rushed to the very weak Pique and grabbed him by the collar. I want to ask aloud.
At this moment, Kant caught a glimpse of the scratch on Pick's middle finger.
"This is." Kant frowned, looked at the wound that was rapidly healing, and said in a low voice.
"Let me go." Pique immediately pushed Kant away with the last bit of strength after noticing that Kant's eyes moved to his hands. When the soldiers on both sides were about to come over and clamp him, Pique had already fainted from the pain.
After Kant was pushed away by Pick, he was silent for a while, not knowing what he was thinking about. Then he turned around and confessed to the two soldiers: "Help Pique to the bed in the guest room and let him have a good rest."
"Yes" the soldier agreed obediently. One of the soldiers immediately stretched out his right hand, trying to help Pique onto his shoulder. But unexpectedly failed to shake Pique's figure.
"Give me a hand," said the first soldier to Bubin.
"Huh?" Bubin looked at him suspiciously. The two stood in the direction of Pique's head and tail, and they used all their strength to lift Pique from the ground.
"Why is he so heavy!" Bubin growled in a low voice.
Pique belongs to the short stature category in the human race, and looks very thin. If you just look at it, it probably doesn't even weigh fifty kilograms.
But when Bubin and the others were carrying out weight training in the barracks on weekdays, the target weight started at two hundred catties.
"I don't know either." The other soldier had already had veins on his arm, and he replied with difficulty.
"This kid is really a monster." Bubin complained.
"Let's hurry up, Commander Bundak still needs help." The soldier suggested. The two held their breaths and helped Pique to the bed in the guest room.
After Peake's body touched the soft quilt, it lost its previous weight again.
Chapter 894:
"Okay. Let's go back quickly." After covering Pique with a quilt, Bubin wiped the sweat from his forehead and said to the soldiers beside him.
"Hmm." The soldier glanced at Pique lying on the bed, and left the room with his feet.
The two happened to meet Kant who was visiting Pique at the door of the bedroom, and they saluted, "Lord Kant, we have settled Pique."
"Okay, you go to Bundak's place to have a look. His situation is a bit troublesome now." Kant nodded and instructed the two.
"The kid who fell asleep inside, he must have given Commander Bandak a fake antidote." The soldier frowned and said with worry in his tone.
"No." Kant shook his head and said firmly.
Bubin exchanged glances with the soldiers around him: Although he didn't know how Kant came to this conclusion, since his attitude was so certain, the soldiers had no choice but to believe in Peake.
After the two bid farewell to Kant's luggage, they rushed to the main hall of the guest room. But Abel had already helped Bundak out of here, and only a pile of excrement on the floor was waiting for them.
Immediately after Kant walked into the bedroom, he sat down beside Pique's bed. Under the light of the candlestick in the room, Pique's face was almost pale.
After hesitating for a while, Kant stretched out his hand to reach Pique's forehead: what he touched was a biting cold. Kant frowned immediately, stood up solemnly, and carefully pulled Pique's hands out of the quilt. Traces of dried blood were found on the middle finger of the right hand.
When he saw it for the first time, Kant still had a hint of disbelief in his heart: because Pique was a human animal trainer, but the blood flowing in his body was green.
But now Kant has been able to make himself face it calmly.
"It seems that the antidote he gave was indeed the blood in his own body." Kant murmured while observing the healed wound on Pique's finger.
However, Pique, who fell on the bed and was still unconscious, borrowed some strength from nowhere, and grabbed Kandeto's raised hands with his backhand.
"Ah." This strength was not considered gentle, Kant cried out softly, and saw his wrist turn red at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Don't tell anyone." Peake shouted in a daze.
Kant looked at Pique's face in amazement, and found that his eyes were still tightly closed. It seemed as if he was still immersed in sleep.
"Don't tell anyone." Pique repeated. The strength in his hands didn't seem to relax at all.
"I won't tell anyone." After taking a deep breath, Kant looked at Pique's face and solemnly promised.
"... Hmm." Pique stopped mumbling after hearing Kant's voice in his sleep. The hands holding Kant's wrists were also weakly placed on the quilt covering him at this time.
"Have a good rest." Kant moved his wrists, and then neatly covered Pique with the quilt. whispered to him.
Pique completely fainted this time, and did not respond to Kant's words in the slightest.
Kant sat quietly on the edge of the bed, seemingly thinking about something. Before he knew it, half an hour had passed by the time he came back to his senses.
"Tat-tat-tat." Slight footsteps sounded in the silent room, and Kant walked into the bathroom carried by the bedroom. Use the water basin provided by the hotel to catch a basin of boiling hot water, and take a clean towel from the hook behind the door.
"Although I don't know what effect this will have, but if it can make you feel better, it will be good." Kant dipped the towel into the basin, and after wringing out the water-soaked towel, he used a The hot towel wiped Pique's forehead and neck repeatedly.
Pique seemed to feel that someone was taking care of him, and the tangled features on his face became more relaxed.
"It seems to work well." Kant said to himself.
After taking care of Pique like this until midnight, Kant, who couldn't bear the tiredness, yawned. He stood up from the edge of the bed, walked to the corner of the bedroom, and blew out the lit candlestick with his mouth. Then he left the bedroom.
The next afternoon after that night, Peek woke up.
Kant and Abel are watching the elven doctor leave at the door of the hotel. When he walked back to the lobby, he saw Peake walking down the stairs on the second floor wrapped in a padded jacket that he carried with him.
"Are you okay?" Kant took the initiative to greet him.
"Hmm." Pique frowned at Kant's words, as if he didn't understand the meaning of the other's words. After remembering the fact that she fainted yesterday, Qianqian nodded.
"The doctor from North City confirmed that the toxin in Bandak's body has disappeared. When are you going to leave?" Abel's eyes were black and blue, and he took care of Bandak for a night, but he didn't care about Pique. Good temper to speak of.
"Right away." Pique replied briefly.
"Then we will arrange a carriage for you now." Kant agreed casually.
Such an attitude surprised Pique, but he really didn't like the people outside the archipelago, so he didn't speculate in his heart about the opportunity for Kant's attitude change.
"A trustworthy person is not too bad." Pique nodded slightly to Kant.
"That's because you are very trustworthy." Kant said unabashedly: "Before you leave, do you want to sit down and have a cup of tea together?"
"Is there any pastry?" Peake stood on the steps of the stairs and looked around the entire lobby, looking at the dishes presented on the tables of the diners.
"Yes." Kant said with a smile, "If you don't mind, let's have some refreshments in this lobby and chat a few words at the same time."
"As long as there is food." Pique walked down the stairs slowly and sat down at the tea table Kant pointed to.
"Go and ask the waiter in the back kitchen to prepare some pastries and order a pot of high-quality tea." Kant knew Abel's resistance to Pique, so he dismissed him in the name of arranging a task.
"Yes, Your Majesty." After arranging everything on the tea table, Abel walked up to the second floor by himself. When he looked back in the direction where Kant was, Kant and Pick had already chatted back and forth.
"Look closely, if Pique makes any strange movements, come to the guest room and report to me immediately." Abel told the soldiers guarding the stairs.
"Yes, Captain Abel." The elf soldier immediately agreed.
"What are your plans after leaving the town?" Kant asked after pouring tea for Pique.
"Nothing," Pique replied casually while waiting for the pastry to be served, "Anyway, I didn't think about staying in this town for long."
Chapter 895:
"Your parents should be troubled by having a child like you." Kant took a sip of tea and said to Pick.
After hearing the topic about his parents, Pique immediately sat up straight and responded: "My father is a man with a big heart, why should he care about trivial things that happen around me?"
"It sounds like your father is a very powerful person." Kant smiled lightly.
"Well." Pique is still very shy about talking about his father's achievements in front of outsiders, because his father educated him since he was a child: the achievements of others cannot be used as capital to show off, even if the 'other' is yours loved ones.
"What about your mother? Does she care about you?" Kant asked.
"Probably not." Pique shook his head and said, "My mother is just an ordinary peasant woman, how could she think of everything I'm going through now?"
Kant put down his teacup upon hearing this, looked at Pique and said, "Then your family is really interesting. Your father is a powerful animal trainer, and your mother is an ordinary farmer who cares about the harvest of the land."
"It's not interesting at all." Pique glanced at Kant and said with his mouth curled up.
"Your parents are extraordinary people in their respective fields, otherwise how could they have combined together to give birth to you." Kant said: "You should be only fifteen or sixteen years old now, right? How many years have you been wandering outside?"
"Seven years?" Peake lost interest in talking immediately after seeing the waiter with tea coming towards them. After a rough recall, he replied casually.
"Lord Kant, these are the pastries that Abel asked the chef to prepare." After bending over Kant's luggage, the waiter put a small plate of pastries on the table one by one.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work." Kant nodded to the waiter with a smile.
"I will take my leave." The waiter seemed to treat Pique as air, and after bowing to Kant, he turned and left.
And Peake didn't seem to notice the rudeness shown by the waiter at all, and his eyes were glued to the refreshments on the table.
"Don't worry about me. You can have a sip of tea first, and then you can start eating your own share." Kant said to Pique.
"Yeah." Pick looked at Kant with an expression of appreciation in his eyes, and nodded. Hastily drank a cup of green tea to moisten the stomach. Then he casually picked up the pastry on the plate and ate it mouthful.
During his time with Pique, Kant found that: Generally speaking, Pique is a relatively well-educated and domineering child. From the details of the meal, we can see the degree of education the other party received as a child. This kind of temperament cultivated since childhood cannot be played out. In addition, it is very admirable that a large part of Pique's arrogance comes from his self-confidence in his own strength. In this world, it is a good thing to have such character traits.
"The waiter didn't seem to see you just now, aren't you angry?" Kant broke the pastry in his hand in half, chewed and ate it slowly. After swallowing the first mouthful of delicious food, he spoke to Pique.
"Don't be angry." Pique shook his head indifferently, and said, "I haven't reached the point where everyone respects me."
"Hehe." Kant smiled softly and said, "How are you going to make everyone respect you?"
"I haven't figured it out yet. After all, everyone has different standards in their hearts." Pique replied.
"Then do you still want everyone to respect you? After knowing that there are many strange people in this world." Kant wiped the crumbs of bread attached to his fingertips with the handkerchief in his arms, looked at Pique, He solemnly asked, "Perhaps it will never be realized in this life."
"Hmm." Pique paused, then nodded and said, "I think maybe I can."
"Yes." Kant nodded, and ended the conversation here.
"Is my carriage ready?" Pick clapped his hands after finishing the pastry on his plate. He raised his head and asked Kant.
"Hmm." Kant glanced at the door and responded.
"Then goodbye, no. It's better not to see each other again." Pique showed his first smile of the day while standing up from his seat.
"Don't you want to see us? I really want to meet you." Kant said with a smile as he held Pique's outstretched hand.
"Your actions this time are really ruthless." Pique turned his gaze aside, and told Kant: "However, don't think about it, let this matter, let the dragons and dwarves I have changed my opinion of you. An outsider is an outsider after all."
"Well, thank you." Kant accepted the suggestion from a teenage human boy and responded with a smile.
"There's no need to say this." Pique waved his hand, walked out of the hotel alone, and said to Kant before boarding the carriage: "By the way, Yin Chi's poison effect is not so easy to get rid of. You have to wait When Bandak is detoxifying outside the body, it is necessary to find someone to watch him at all times."
"Okay." Kant nodded to Pique.
"Let's go." Pique took a last look at Kant standing by the threshold, then turned and said to the groom who was driving.
"Sir, sit still." The groom yelled loudly after seeing Peake enter the carriage.
"Bon voyage!" Kant shouted to the back of the galloping carriage.
I don't know if Pique heard the last sentence.
Kant, who came back to his senses from the memory, turned his gaze to Bundak who was on the side.
"Would you hate Pique?" Kant asked.
"No." Bandak was taken aback when he heard the words, as if he didn't expect Kant to ask such a question. But after reacting. Immediately and firmly expressed his attitude.
"Why?" Kant said.
"I don't know very well. It may be that I never thought that I would die by his hands from the beginning to the end." Bandak described vaguely.
"Hehe." Kant laughed softly and said, "Is it because he is young?"
"...No." Bandak lowered his head and denied, "Perhaps when we were fighting back then, that kid's eyes were different from those of the soldiers who charged forward on the battlefield."
"Hmm." Kant nodded after listening to Bundak's answer, and didn't say anything more.
"If there is a chance, I really want to meet him again." After a while, Bandak said.
Kant looked at the scenery outside the window, silent.
When the atmosphere in the room gradually became quiet, Bandak heard Kant say: "See you later."
The two stayed in the main hall drinking tea silently until evening.
Chapter 896: Request from all the waiters
The sun had already set in the sky when Abel woke up in his bed.
The wine provided in the hotel is not bad, at least at this moment, Abel has no signs of headache.
"Why did I fall asleep?" Abel smelled the alcohol on his body, and immediately understood in his heart.
The body becomes limp due to the effect of alcohol. Abel struggled to get up and put on clean clothes for himself.
Walking to the door of the bedroom, the conversation between Kant and Bundak came from the main hall. Abel stood in front of the door and hesitated for a while, his right hand resting on the doorknob hangs down.
After a while, he returned to his bed. Lie on the bed and stretch your body.
"Ah." Abel looked at the window in front of the bed, gradually lost in thought.
He thought of Claremont: in the last few months, things had happened around him too hastily. Before he knew it, a long time had passed since he met Kant and Bundak.
And all of this should start from the seaport of the Elven Kingdom.
At that time, Calradia had just been founded. The soldiers sent by Kant crossed the desert and came to the country of elves to join Abel and others. That night they rested in a hotel by the harbour. The soldiers of Calradia, who saw the sea water for the first time, had a good time by the embankment. Until Abel himself went to call them back to the hotel restaurant for dinner...
Recalling what happened on the way to the volcano, Abel's eyes overflowed with tears.
It would be great if Claremont was able to get to this point. Countless chats during the dinner made Abel feel distressed for this young man who resolutely joined the army.
Among the three of them, Claremont was probably the most qualified to become a senior officer.
Abel made a decision in his heart: if he could return to the Elven Kingdom alive, he must go to the border of Calradia: to see the soldiers injured in the shipwreck, to visit the widow in Claremont's home high hall.
"Abel, are you awake?" While Abel was still wandering in bed, Bundak unlocked the bedroom door and walked in. When I saw Abel turn his face to himself. Bandak's eyes widened and he said, "So you're already awake. Get up quickly, we still have to go out."
Abel sat up immediately after hearing Bundak's words. Asked in surprise: "Going out? I didn't hear His Majesty say that I need to go out today."
"The leaders of the dwarf clan, dragon clan, goblin clan, and other forces on the volcano have all arrived in the town and are preparing to hold a meeting at the monitoring station. The message we just received, they are waiting for us to rush over." Bandak explained patiently.
"So that's the case, then I'll start preparing quickly." Abel tidied up his bed quickly and hurried to the bathroom.
"His Majesty Kant asked me to send you a letter: don't be too anxious, just let the people from the inspection station wait for a while." Bandak glanced at Abel's back and shouted to him.
Before Abel could reply, Bundak swaggered out of the guest room and returned to the main hall.
"What's wrong? Is Abel awake?" Kant asked Abel.
"Awake. However, when I walked in, he was still lying on the bed and wandering. I don't know what he was in a daze." Bundak nodded, sat down on the chair, and replied to Kant.
"It's been hard for Abel in the past few days. Not only have to take care of you, but also accompany me in and out." Kant glanced at the corridor leading to the bedroom and sighed.
"Well." Bandak naturally agreed with what Kant said in his heart, nodded and replied: "Your Majesty, the matter on this island should be coming to an end soon."
"It's coming to an end." Kant said softly with a hint of melancholy in his tone, "We've stayed on this small island long enough. Just in tonight's meeting, we will make a simple conclusion." Bar."
"Yeah." Bandak replied affirmatively.
After a while, Abel rushed out of his room. He anxiously asked Kant: "Your Majesty, do we need to call the soldiers back to the hotel? There are no people from us in the hotel now."
"No, the three of us are enough." Kant shook his head lightly, and responded to Abel: "This is a meeting, not a war. Even if there is a conflict, with only these dozens of soldiers, we will go away." It can’t be lost. Why risk the lives of soldiers.”
"This..." Abel hesitated.
"Don't worry about it." Bandak grabbed Abel's shoulders and said to him, "Now my martial arts are back. Isn't it enough for the two of us to ensure the safety of His Royal Highness?"
"Okay then." Abel finally compromised.
Kant and Bandak exchanged glances, stood up and walked out the door.
The moment I opened the door of the guest room, I found that there were waiters in the store standing in front of the door.
Kant looked at Nit, the leader, and asked suspiciously, "What's wrong?"
"We heard that, Your Highness Kant, you are going to the Supervision Office," Nite said in embarrassment.
"Hmm." Kant glanced at the waiter who had just reported to him and Bandak, thought for a while, and nodded to Nitt.
"We were thinking, can you please do us a favor, His Royal Highness Kant?" After Nit's voice fell, the waiter standing beside him immediately bent down and saluted Kant and the others: "Please three grown ups!"
"Tell me first, what can we help you with?" Kant said lightly, his eyes sweeping across the crowd in front of him.
"We hope that Mr. Kant can help us keep this shop." Nite begged with a bow.
"What news did you receive?" Bundak, who was standing behind Kant, asked.
"The boss seems to have been discovered by goblin soldiers outside the city, and he is now being escorted back to the inspection station." Nite said: "However, he has already told the soldiers in charge of his identity. It will be treated as a place where the dark side organizes social exchanges, and it will be handled by the police.”
"Then you can rent this store back from the government." Abel said, "After all, you have nothing to do with the contacts your boss runs."
"They won't allow us to continue doing business here." Nit shook his head heavily, and replied, "Although I don't understand politics, I still know the principle of changing dynasties. This store, after being confiscated, , there will be no further intervention from us.”
"Hmm." After hearing Nit's words, Kant nodded and replied: "Many of you were brought up by the boss, and the boss also helped us a little bit before. Although the process was a little bit There are twists and turns. But your request, I will agree."
