"...Being a beggar also requires talent. I think you might not be able to do it." There was no other way, the conversation started, and Benjamin could only prevaricate a few words.
Then, before the organ man could speak again, he immediately answered and asked his own question:
"By the way, have you ever seen a tall, thin, freckle-faced young man nearby? He looks a bit silly and wears tattered linen clothes?"
The organ man showed a troubled expression, and then said: "There are people like this everywhere in the king, which one are you looking for?"
Benjamin was a little confused.
How should he describe it? You can't ask the system to bring up the picture, let's show it to the organ man.
After thinking about it, Benjamin suddenly lowered his voice and said, "Have you heard about the people in this tavern who were killed some time ago? The person I'm looking for was also present at the time. I heard that other people They all call him 'Bamboo Rod'."
There is no other way. If you want to find the person, you can't do it without exposing a little more information.
Finally, after listening to Benjamin's description, the organ man also looked like he suddenly understood. He looked around, then approached Benjamin and whispered:
"Why are you looking for those people? I advise you to stay away from them. These people are very cruel. For small people like us, killing them is as easy as trampling on ants."
Hearing this, Benjamin's eyes lit up.
There is drama.
This organ man obviously knows the scarred man and his group. Not only does he know it, but he should even understand it, otherwise he wouldn't have said such a thing.
"It's okay, their boss and I are distant relatives, but I haven't heard from them for a few days, so I want to find them." So, Benjamin said.
The organ man looked puzzled. Looking at Benjamin, he didn’t seem to believe the lies Benjamin made up.
Benjamin quickly continued: "Don't even think about it. Beggars are such a lucrative profession. If it weren't for my relationship with them, how do you think I got into this business?"
The organ man tilted his head and thought for a while, and then said hesitantly: "It seems... it makes sense. Well, actually I haven't heard from them for a while, but if you want to find them , you can go to the boss of Silver Fox. They have been very close, and most of those people were gathered together by the boss of Silver Fox."
"Silver Fox" boss
Who is this
Benjamin asked the system in his mind, but the system also said it didn't know. But from what the organ man said, Benjamin guessed that he must be the leader of some gang in the outer city.
The gang leader who helped Scar Man gain a foothold here... can barely be considered a clue.
Would you like to go over and ask
It's okay to try, anyway, even the gangsters can't do anything to him.
"That 'Silver Fox' boss, where can I find him?"
The organ man stretched out his hand, pointed to the other end of the street, and said, "Go down this road and walk for ten minutes. Turn left at the next intersection and walk for another five minutes. You will see a hotel. When you walk in, you can find the boss of the 'Silver Fox'."
Benjamin nodded and ordered the system to write down the route.
Then, he patted the organ man on the shoulder and said, "Thank you, you know so much."
"Of course." The organ man said with a proud smile, "My dream is to become a great troubadour and let every street performer sing the songs I wrote. Of course I know everything."
Hearing this, Benjamin also smiled and said, "Then I wish you good luck."
"I also wish you good luck." The organ man nodded, then glanced at the tavern behind him that was still being renovated, and said, "It's almost time. I'm going to interview the musicians of this new tavern. Goodbye."
Just like that, the organ man waved goodbye to Benjamin, turned around, and walked into the tavern.
Benjamin also waved goodbye to him.
As luck would have it, I met a simple and kind man just as I was about to get some information.
He suddenly felt a little emotional.
In order to stabilize its rule, the church is killing its opponents; in order to overthrow the church, Michelle plots against everyone she can; Benjamin runs around in order to practice stably... And under the same sky above them, there is also a person Such a young man, carrying an accordion on his back and shouting the troubadour's dream, walked into a pub that had not yet opened to interview for a brand new job.
What a mouthful of chicken soup full of positive energy.
What a dream...
Benjamin raised his head and looked at the sky. It was afternoon, and the strong sunlight made it difficult for him to open his eyes. Some random birds of unknown origin flew past, their cries were as noisy as the people on this street.
"My dream is probably to become the protagonist in the stories sung by these bards."
Suddenly, he laughed at himself a few times, shook his head, and talked to himself.
"Brother, how old are you? Do you really think that you are a sixteen or seventeen-year-old kid?" The system complained in his mind speechlessly, "Don't get chuunibyou here, just do what you should do. "
Benjamin was not angry, but said to the system in his heart: "In life, you always need a little chicken soup."
"This is chicken soup from the 1980s, so it's not too bad."
"It's okay. Chicken soup has a lot of preservatives, so it won't expire."
"Your musician husband who has a dream, he just held your shoulders and said that he would change his career to become a beggar with you. Do you believe his dream?"
"That's enough, you're the only one who talks a lot of nonsense..."
While arguing with the system in his mind, Benjamin took a step forward and walked towards the location of the "Silver Fox" boss that the organ man told him.
The two places were not far apart. After walking for about a quarter of an hour, Benjamin arrived in front of the hotel.
It was an old little hotel, and you could feel a damp smell from the outside. The walls of the hotel were covered with moss, and traces of water leakage extended from the roof to the base of the walls.
Would a gang boss stay in a place like this
Benjamin was a little confused.
…who knows? Looking at those movies, gang bosses have very weird tempers.
I wonder what the gang boss in the outer city of Havenright would be like
Thinking this, he took a deep breath and walked in.
What he saw in front of him was the narrow lobby of the hotel and a table. There was a half-bald old man sitting behind the table. Apart from that, Benjamin didn't see anyone else. The whole hotel felt a bit deserted.
The old man glanced at him, lowered his head again, and continued to read his newspaper.
Benjamin walked over and said, "Excuse me, do you know where the boss of Silver Fox is?"
The old man put down the newspaper and looked at him with disgust:
"Why are you looking for the boss of Silver Fox?"
Benjamin didn't mind the other person's eyes. After all, he was dressed as a beggar, so it was normal for people to look at him like this. People who open stores these days are more or less snobbish.
He just laughed, took out a gold coin from his pocket, and threw it on the table.
"I want to ask him to help me find someone."
The gold coins landed on the table with a thick sound.
The old man looked surprised. He picked up the gold coin, looked at it carefully, put it in his mouth and took a few bites with his teeth. After verifying that the gold coin was genuine, he cast a confused look at Benjamin.
"Are you sick? You are obviously very rich, why do you dress like a beggar?"
“…”
In the spirit of respecting the old and loving the young, Benjamin ignored the old man's words and repeated his purpose: "Where is the boss of 'Silver Fox'? I want to ask him to help me find someone."
The old man heard this and shook his head. He put away the gold coins, then looked at Benjamin without changing his expression and said, "I am the boss of Silver Fox. Tell me, who do you want me to help you find?"
