"If you don't want to suffer, just return our things honestly."
Lin Tianyin looked at the trembling beret kid and his monkey in front of her with a blank face, and she tried to make her voice a bit more ferocious.
Gagaff, who was thrown like a cannonball, got up from the ground unsteadily, seemingly all right. At this time, the kid in the beret was so frightened that his nose dropped, while the monkey urinated all over the floor. This time they didn't play tricks again, they hugged together and apologized tremblingly: "I'm sorry! Don't dare again!"
Lin Tianyin thought that she had really misread the world. Looking at Mirona with the expression of "the world lied to me", Lin Tianyin originally thought that her halo of the Virgin Mary would be useful, but in the end she still had to rely on force to solve the problem...
"I grabbed two packages today. I don't know which one belongs to you...you can find it yourself."
After being honest, the kid in the beret grumbled reluctantly, and led the three of them to the door of a dilapidated house. Following the little ghost into the house, everyone found that there was no one there.
It really was that kind of child without parents... But Lin Tianyin suddenly noticed that on the gray wall in the small room, there was still a photo of the kid and a girl. The girl is much older than the little ghost, and the two seem to be quite close.
"Is that your sister?" Gargaff asked casually, and the kid in the beret nodded, showing a somewhat disappointed expression.
The little ghost led the three of them into the kitchen, and then opened the entrance to the basement from under the table, beckoning to Lin Tianyin and the others: "Come along, make an agreement first, only take back your own things."
"What does this mean?" Mirona was a little puzzled.
However, after following the little ghost into the basement, everyone finally understood what the little ghost meant—this basement was clearly a stolen goods storage warehouse, which was filled with all kinds of backpacks, luggage, boxes... there were more than 20 of them!
Seeing this scene, even Mirona, who was always the Holy Mother, was dumbfounded. She stared blankly at the stolen goods and said, "Why did you steal so much... No, this is a bad behavior. You are not allowed to steal other people's things again." Do you know?!"
"Stop rambling! I need money!"
The kid in the beret glared at Mirona, and waved his hands impatiently: "Really, I'm unlucky to meet you, find your own things, take them and leave."
"How can this be..." Mirona looked hurt, and raised her arm with the monkey next to the little ghost and squeaked twice, showing the same impatience as her master. Lin Tianyin actually understood what was going on in her heart. She looked at the bad-tempered kid with her hands on her hips, rolled her eyes and asked, "Did you steal so many things for your own sister?"
"..."
The kid in the beret was silent for a moment, then nodded reluctantly and said, "It's none of your business."
"If you have any trouble, you can discuss it with us." Seeing that the kid's attitude had changed, Mirona bent down, stared at the kid with concern, and said, "Maybe I can help you."
Seeing Mirona's spirit of the Virgin glowing again, Lin Tianyin felt a little annoyed. She was stunned for a moment when she saw the little ghost, and there was a hint of hesitation in his eyes, but soon he shook his head pretending to be impatient and said: "You can't help! Just mind your own business!"
"Don't look at us like this, we also embarked on a journey to defeat the devil." Mirona really has a good temper, calm and not angry, still looking at the little ghost with a smile, "If you don't tell it and listen, how will others know? Can you help me?"
Don't mind your own business! Lin Tianyin was secretly crying in her heart. It's all her fault for asking too much, in fact, she can more or less guess what happened to the little ghost, but it doesn't matter to her, as long as she gets her luggage back, it doesn't matter who he steals. And it won't do any good to help that brat...
"What? Demon King?" Hearing this, the kid suddenly showed an expression of "you are a fool", and looked at Mirona with disdain: "Do you think I am a three-year-old child? The Demon King is something in legends , No one alive in the world has seen the Demon King at all.”
"It's true, the demon king was resurrected when the red moon appeared last time." Mirona seemed a little anxious, and couldn't help explaining, "We came from the unnamed village on the other side of the mountain. After the demon king was resurrected, he sent red dragons to attack our village, that's why we set out on our journey!"
"That's right." Gagaff nodded at the side, and introduced to Lin Tianyin, "Shanoya is our hero, she is the one who defeated the dragon."
"..." These words made the kid in the beret quiet. He immediately changed his gaze and began to look at Lin Tianyin, then frowned and asked: "... Is what they said true? You defeated the dragon ?”
It seemed that trouble was inevitable. These two pig teammates seem to want to be good guys who are nosy. But Lin Tianyin is not this kind of person, she stared at the kid who was still mocking her just now, sighed and nodded: "Yes, the carrier pigeons from our village have already flown to Wangcheng, and the Palace Knights will come in a few days Take the dragon away."
"This way..." The beret kid hesitated for a moment, then raised his head suddenly, grabbed Lin Tianyin's arm and begged, "Please! Help my sister!"
Lin Tianyin turned her head away, and quickly refused with a blank face: "Stop dreaming, that's impossible."
Mirona was shocked, looked at her sister, and said in a tone of pity for everyone in this world: "Shanoya, he is still a child."
Lin Tianyin asked back as a matter of course: "This kid had to exchange our most important thing and only property for money. If we don't catch him, we should be the ones to be sympathized with, right?"
"..."
Even Mirona couldn't deny that what Lin Tianyin said made sense, she could still remember the experience of the kid deceiving her just now. If he hadn't caught this brat, he might not have been forced by his sister to beg in a restaurant.
But in the final analysis, Lin Tianyin is not hard-hearted, she just has a bad temper after encountering so many unlucky things. So she decided to listen to the little ghost's story before saying: "Although I don't really want to know, but what is your sister's situation?"
...
This is basically the traditional plot of a bad RPG game. The three of them sat down, Lin Tianyin still threatened the kid in the beret, and then everyone listened to him talk about himself.
This kid is called Ah Fu, and his parents died of illness when he was five years old, leaving him and an older sister to depend on each other. The monkey was picked up on the mountain. However, two months ago, his sister was snatched away by the bully and squire Drew in the town. He didn't know that when he was sick a year ago, his sister borrowed money from Drew's bank for him. It didn't have much money, but the interest turned into a very dire figure, which could not be repaid anyway. Therefore, my sister was taken away by Master Drew's subordinates as a debt-paying item, and they threatened to laugh at him, "If you want to get back your sister, you can redeem it with money and interest."
"So... that's why you steal other people's luggage?" Mirona looked at Ah Fu sympathetically, and clenched her fists angrily, "Usury is obviously illegal, why don't you ask the local baron or the Knights for help? "
"It's useless, Master Drew has a close relationship with the Earl of Marishan in Wangcheng... I thought about it, as long as I make a little more money, I can save my sister..."
"But you are stealing other people's money." Lin Tianyin frowned and said, wondering what Malishan is! Does the Earl also have an awl face? !
"I'm sorry...but I can't help it!"
Ah Fu blushed anxiously and wanted to argue, but Lin Tianyin shook her head to stop him.
"Although I sympathize with you, I'm afraid we can't help you." Lin Tianyin looked at the kid and said, "Anyway, we absolutely don't want you to go to the landlord's house to rob someone, it's too dangerous, and it won't do any good. "
This plot never happened in the original book. Ever since I formed a strange adventure team with the villagers, the plot has completely deviated from the original book. If the teammate is a prince at this time, it will be easy to handle. The prince can directly ask the squire to hand over the stolen girl, but their group of adventurers who have no background can only break into other people's homes and mess around.
But the reason why Lin Tianyin said this was that she really couldn't bear to tell this beret brat named Ah Fu that two months had passed, and it didn't make much sense to save his sister or not. It would be better to let her stay in Germany. It might be easier for the Lu family to be a concubine or something...
"This..." The kid named Ah Fu hesitated for a moment, then suddenly raised the monkey beside him: "If you can save my sister, I will give Pippi to you!"
"...No one wants that kind of thing!" The monkey trembled in fright, Lin Tianyin couldn't help but twitched the corners of his mouth, and couldn't help complaining.
"You will need Pippi, it is very good at stealing things." Ah Fu seemed to be serious, and Mirona immediately waved her hands in fear: "We don't steal things."
Maybe steal it too? At this time, Lin Tianyin had already started to waver. If their journey was long, they would still need travel expenses. The five hundred yuan raised by the villagers was not enough, but doing such a troublesome thing for a monkey seemed a bit outweighed by the gain...
"It's also very useful without stealing things." Afu scratched the monkey's back and continued to sell: "This guy has a very good nose, and he can often find edible things in the wild. If you have a long journey, you'd better take it with you." it."
… find something to eat.
This sentence seemed to be full of temptation, Lin Tianyin couldn't help but began to re-evaluate gains and losses. Seeing the little ghost and the monkey looking at her pitifully together, Lin Tianyin suddenly had a flash of inspiration and had a good idea in her mind.
"I have a better plan that allows you to collect all the money from the usury at once."
"What plan? Is it a gamble? It won't work either."
"No, we can let monkeys steal a super-taken."
Lin Tianyin touched her chin, and the corner of her mouth formed an evil arc.
According to her understanding of the plot of the original novel, it seemed that the bastard prince was about to pass through this town to Wuming Village. Lin Tianyin didn't like the prince very much, and this was a good opportunity to steal his purse and make him unlucky.
