Hearing this, Benjamin frowned.
"Are you the gang boss?"
However, the old man once again showed disgust and said, "I am not a gang boss."
Benjamin was confused: "Then why did you say you are the boss of the 'Silver Fox'?"
Old man: "Because I am the 'Silver Fox' boss."
Benjamin: "But shouldn't the boss of Silver Fox be the boss of the gang?"
Old man: "Who told you that the boss of 'Silver Fox' must be the boss of the gang?"
“…”
Benjamin was speechless, feeling that he no longer knew the word "boss".
Another tragedy of overthinking.
The old man looked at Benjamin with a look that looked like he was mentally retarded, which made Benjamin even have the illusion that he was really mentally retarded.
"My nickname is Silver Fox. When I was a child, I was the eldest son in the family, so everyone called me the 'Silver Fox' boss." The old man stared at Benjamin. Suddenly, he shook his head and laughed a few times, explaining interestingly. He said, "There is no future for gangs in Havenright. The church is too powerful. Any gangster who shows up will be pinned to the ground. The gangsters in the outer city all fight their own way, and no one dares to form a gang." group."
"... I'm rude." With a blushing face, Benjamin was silent for a moment and could only reply like this.
The old man laughed briefly again and looked Benjamin up and down.
"Tell me, you came to me dressed as a beggar, who are you looking for?" I heard him say.
Benjamin took a deep breath, put out the spirit of a dead pig and put the shame behind him.
"The person I'm looking for is a new subordinate recruited by the leader of the North Mountain bandits after he came here. They all call him 'Bamboo Gang'." After finishing speaking, he thought for a while and added, " New bamboo poles, not old bamboo poles.”
After hearing the words "North Mountain Bandit Leader", the old man's expression changed obviously.
From that indifferent and dismissive attitude, he suddenly became a lot more serious.
Seeing this, Benjamin's eyes lit up, and he secretly thought something was wrong.
However, after a moment of silence, the old man suddenly spoke and said something like this: "Don't talk nonsense. The bandits in North Mountain have been wiped out by the church long ago, and not a single person was left alive. What do you mean? I do not understand."
Benjamin's face suddenly darkened.
… Oh shit.
You accepted the money, and now you're pretending to be stupid for him here
Benjamin was really angry now. It's amazing that you have the nickname of 'Silver Fox' boss, I still have Firefox in my fucking head!
"You don't have Firefox installed. You are obviously using Sogou." The system suddenly bubbled up and spoke.
“…”
Why is the whole world targeting my excellence
Benjamin felt hopeless.
Just when he was thinking about whether he should show off his magic to scare this arrogant old man, suddenly, a strong force came from behind him. He couldn't stand still and was pushed to the side, almost falling to the ground.
"I..." Because he was so angry, he almost cursed. However, after looking back, he held back.
I saw three paladins and a priest standing in front of the hotel. One of the Paladins just stretched his hand back. Obviously, he was the one who just pushed Benjamin.
Seeing this, Benjamin suddenly calmed down.
Because he recognized the priest.
The same priest who came to his bedroom that night and "politely" invited him to church and let the bishop read his memory.
How come he is here
Benjamin didn't have time to think too much, so he could only lower his head, let his hair cover his face, and look scared, hoping that he would not be recognized by the priest.
"Welcome, gentlemen, how can I serve you?" The old man's expression changed quickly, and he said to the four of them flatteringly. After speaking, he glared at Benjamin and angrily said, "What are you looking at?" Look, I told you that there is no money for you, but you still stay here and refuse to leave. The eyes of several adults have been stained by you!"
Hearing this, Benjamin was not angry at all.
The old man is helping him.
It's not like he didn't even understand this.
Therefore, he cooperated with the old man's words, squatted down, covered his stomach, and cried: "I... I just want to beg for some food, where else can I go... I really didn't mean to offend the adults. of."
Seeing this, the pastor smiled kindly and said, "It doesn't matter, we won't blame you."
Benjamin breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, he was not recognized.
After recovering from the panic of the sudden change, doubts quickly arose in his mind.
What's going on? Shouldn't the church be busy fighting openly and secretly with the nobles? Why would they send people to this small hotel
Is there something fishy in the store
Thinking of this, Benjamin lay on the side, like a beggar who really refused to leave, lowering his head and covering his face, watching all this.
"Hello, old man, we don't need to trouble you." The pastor turned his head and showed his signature pastoral smile, "We are just doing some routine inspections to prevent degenerates from hiding in your store. , old man, you don’t have to worry.”
The old man was stunned, then immediately said with a smile: "Of course, thank you Pastor for caring about us. Pastor, what do you want to check? Just take a look!"
Hearing this, the pastor smiled and nodded.
He turned around and looked at the three paladins. The paladins nodded, walked to the corridor, and began to search each room.
When Benjamin saw this, he couldn't help but feel that something was not right.
What are they looking for
Could it be that it was really just a simple routine check
The paladin's search method was extremely rough, and he would kick open any door he encountered, regardless of whether there was anyone inside. For a time, the whole hotel was in a frenzy, and several pairs of fateful mandarin ducks were frightened. Some people may have been scarred for life.
They just kicked and searched all the way, and gradually went deeper into the corridor. And if there were any travelers in the rooms they searched, they all ran out, cursed and left the hotel.
The pastor stood in front of the stage and did not stop the departing passengers. He just waited for the results of the search and looked at the old man with a smile.
The old man also nodded and bowed, and responded to the pastor with a smile.
Neither man spoke.
For a time, the atmosphere of the entire hotel became a little subtle again. Benjamin squatted aside and watched, starting to feel a little strange.
I don’t know how long it’s been…
"Master Priest, come and take a look." Suddenly, a paladin walked out of the corridor and said, "There is someone in the room on the second floor. We don't know if he is the one you are looking for."
Hearing this, the pastor suddenly showed a more cordial smile and looked at the old man with a bit of surprise in his eyes.
The old man looked at the pastor with an innocent look on his face, as if he didn't know what he was talking about.
The pastor's eyes stayed on the old man's face for about ten seconds, as if he was examining something. The old man's expression did not change at all, and he looked at the pastor with a mixture of confusion and confusion.
Suddenly, the priest withdrew his gaze and looked at the paladin.
"Okay, take me to see it."
Hearing this, the paladin nodded without saying anything, turned around, and walked towards the second floor of the hotel. The priest followed him and walked towards the stairs at the end of the corridor.
The old man was still sitting where he was, watching the priest and paladin with a look of state on his face.
Just like that, the two of them walked away.
And Benjamin, who witnessed the whole process, as an onlooker who had no background information to see, was a little confused about which song was being sung. He could see the rivalry between the priest and the old man, but he didn't know why the two men were competing.
Who is the pastor looking for? What does this have to do with the elderly
He had a guess in his mind, but he wasn't sure.
However, at this moment, the old man sitting behind the stage suddenly changed his expression. He strode to Benjamin's side, knelt down, and began to whisper to Benjamin in a low voice.
Listening to that murderous voice, he really looked like a gang boss.
He said: "Help me kill the four of them. You can find anyone you want. Not to mention the North Mountain bandit's men, even the Pope's little lover, I can dig it out for you!"
