Chapter 1500 The reason for being late
“Beautiful sister, you mean Ms. Lesa Kevos...”
Father Lorenzo touched the sparse hair on his chin Stubble, muttered in a low voice and then frowned and said: "But why three?"
Hermes snorted lightly, put the stack of cards into his pocket, and said with some displeasure: "Maybe I don't understand the rules, or maybe I'm timid."
"Look at what you said."
Alma had no intention of putting her legs down from the table. She just took a puff of cigarette lazily and glanced at the young man next to her with a half-smile: "Brother Hermes, when you first came to our committee, But the entire [Blue Sacred Scripture] was brought here to support the scene.”< br>
Hermes was not angry, but said calmly: "That's because I didn't understand the rules at the time, and I was also very timid, couldn't I?"
"Haha , the main reason is that our Bella Street is different from other places, what matters is A kind and humane person."
With dozens of lives on her hands, Mrs. Imelda, who is indeed the most kind and humane person on the street, grinned and said kindly: "Brother Hermes. There was nothing wrong with the original approach. I heard that many neighborhood committees The threshold of the membership is all about hard power, and it doesn’t take much to fight for a seat.”
The young man named Ghost Fire immediately shrank his neck when he heard this, and said weakly. : "It's not good to fight...ah, here we are."
Then, the moment the young man finished speaking, the cubicle at the end of the second floor of the bungalow was pushed open from the outside. The first person who appeared was a petite and pretty face named Bai Changzhi.
The seemingly thin and slender figure, the giant long blade that is more than two meters long on the back, coupled with the simple yet gorgeous (minimum size) black and blood-striped female official uniform of the Kevos family, almost makes the girl The fashion value has been pushed to the limit. It can be said that it is a super cool Gril that has cute features such as cold face, girl, Bai Changzhi, Sanwu, dwarf, giant sword, etc.! If you add in her foodie attributes that have not yet been revealed at this time, her "cuteness" will almost even rise to a higher level, the kind that can definitely occupy a place in the popularity vote.
【The eyes are not red...um, bodyguard? It would be nice if that guy could be more detailed. Judging from this trend, I don't even know how to cooperate. 】
Hermes sighed in his heart, but on the surface he stared at the white-haired girl quite domineeringly. It was obvious that Officer Hao had no intention of giving up his role as the gangster leader, even if I have already decided to cooperate, and I still have to go through the process.
Then she was ignored magnificently. The girl who was suspected to be a bodyguard just stood expressionlessly by the door, standing there coldly like an emotionless machine, sighing silently in her heart. by——
【I am so handsome. 】
Mu Xuejian, who seemed to have put himself into the role of a master, thought this way.
After that, Lesa Kevos, who was wearing an exquisite court dress, also walked slowly into the room, smiled lightly at everyone, and then sat down next to Alma. Sitting on an empty chair, he smiled and said: "Hello everyone, I am Lesa Kevos from No. 4 Bella Street, a pure-blood blood seeker and the patriarch of the Kevos family."
"I am one of the senior advisors of the Keyvos family, Wormwood."
A girl with shoulder-length flaxen short hair and a delicate baby face walked into the room last, and then took it with her After closing the door, he stood respectfully behind Lesa and nodded to the other five people at the table: "Nice to meet you all."
[Black Curtain] The owner of the church, Father Lorenzo, the president of [Imelda Chamber of Commerce], Mrs. Imelda, and the young cadre of [Fire Demon Mercenary Group], Willow Fire, all gave kind feedback, and [Blue Holy Scripture] Hemis, the leader of [Roman Abyss], and Emma, the store manager of [Roman Abyss], looked at Lesa and Xiao Ai with scrutiny...or rather provocative eyes, and they didn't seem to buy it very much.
Lesa continued to maintain an elegant and decent smile, and did not give any feedback to the five people with good or bad attitudes, while Xiao Ai coughed lightly and took out five workmanship cards. The elegant scroll was placed on the table gently: "This is the application form for our Kaivos family to join the street committee and contribute to the neighborhood. If you are interested, you can take a look."< br>
“Oh, okay.”
Father Lorenzo immediately reached out and took a scroll. When he was about to open it, he found that none of the four people around him made any move. He put it back on the table and said with an embarrassed smile: "What about that, I'll look at it later, I'll look at it later."
And Alma turned the pipe around and knocked it on the ground. Yan Hui said leisurely: "Compared with this application, I am actually more interested in why you are so late."
"Just some trivial matters. Of course, if the store manager Alma is interested, I will be happy to answer your questions."
Xiao Ai turned to look at Alma with a smile and said briskly: " In fact, just before coming here, we went to the main store [Maozhu Guan] not far away at No. 9 Alex Street and had a chat there. ”
< br>【Mao Zhu Pavilion? 】
When hearing this name, apart from the will-o'-the-wisp who seemed a little heartless and just a representative, whether it was Elma, Imelda, Hermes or Lorenzo, they all frowned subconsciously. He frowned, obviously he had heard of that name.
It is a large-scale restaurant with a rough style. In addition to the main store, it also has three branches of famous dine-in restaurants. It is a medium-sized organization with a total of more than fifty waiters and two hundred security guards. It is powerful. The scope even covers the two blocks adjacent to Alex Street, Bella Block and Cobb Block.
That’s right, in addition to the main store and No. 1 store of [Mao Zhu Guan] on Alex Street, the restaurant’s No. 2 and No. 3 branches have spread to the next two streets, and the No. 3 branch is in Business at No. 21 Bella Street, less than five kilometers away from this small bungalow, is quite prosperous.
The booming business of [Mao Zhu Guan] has also caused a lot of trouble for the managers of this street, that is, the members of the street committee present here.
Of course, the five people sitting here are not jealous of how much other people earn, nor are they dissatisfied with the fact that the powerful people in the next block have reached out here, but because [Mao Zhu Restaurant], in addition to catering services, Customers will also be provided with some 'special services' of a nasty nature.
However, the 'special services' here are not the 'special services' imagined by those who need to face the wall, but some are packaged as seasonings, but are actually the alchemical products of some kind of potent hallucinogen.
To put it bluntly, it is a kind of drug that is similar to "drugs" outside the game. It is seriously harmful to health and extremely addictive.
This thing will not cause any harm to the vast majority of people whose strength exceeds the middle level. After all, toxic substances that can destroy an ordinary adult in reality are basically unaffordable in the face of the average physical fitness of the innocent people. What a storm, but its addictiveness is dozens of times that of other drugs outside, and its price is also ridiculous.
We can understand that the lethality of this thing is not as good as tobacco for most people, but once people smoke it to a certain extent, their dependence on it is no less than that of most drugs.
Coupled with the fact that the selling price is outrageous...ah, I understand everything.
In short, the colorful 'seasonings' that look similar to grains of salt and have different flavors are the main income of [Mao Zhu Pavilion]. In addition, they also provide 'Credit' service, to put it bluntly, is a loan shark, the kind that returns nine times out of ten, maybe a bit higher.
As for the consequences of failing to do so...
Let's put it this way, this is the city of freedom. Since people dare to provide you with 'credit' services, it means that there must be a way for you to pay back your debt. As for those who really have capital and don't pay back, they either don't have enough money. , Or not addicted, to say the least, even if you really meet someone who is so messy and can't afford to offend him, hey, at worst, you'll lose a little bit, but you can't lose a piece of meat.
To sum up, [Mao Zhu Pavilion] is such an unpleasant force. Although it can even be regarded as a breath of fresh air in the smoky Alex Street, in Bella Street, everyone is Those who still understand the rules are completely rat shit, but they are very unpopular anyway. Among them, the ones who were most unhappy about watching [The Pig House] were Alma and Hermes.
Alma, it’s because a few of her little girls and boys got into contact with that stuff and ended up being destroyed.
Although Hemis has no conflict of interest with [Mao Zhu Pavilion], and the gangsters under him will never be addicted to that kind of thing because they are players, but as a decent person at heart, He was a martyr who could stain twenty or thirty red scarves even if he spilled some blood after rushing to the street. He almost instinctively hated these illegal things.
Even throwing garbage everywhere would make Officer Hao uncomfortable, not to mention real crimes such as drugs and loan sharking, so the conflicts between [Blue Bible] and [Mao Zhu Pavilion] were the most.
However, due to the strong power of [Mao Zhu Pavilion] and several large backers behind it, although I did not dare to go too far on Bella Street, I did not suffer a few losses. After several conflicts with the [Blue Sacred Code], it even feels like a strong dragon overpowering the local snake.
Ever since, after hearing Xiao Ai’s statement that he had gone to the main store of [Mao Zhu Pavilion] on Alex Street, Alma and Hermes’ eyes immediately became sharp.
“It looks like you guys were having a good time chatting.”
Elma Heche’s voice suddenly turned cold, and she laughed contemptuously: “What? Are you going to pick on those butts? Does the Xixi cook support me? ”
Hermes also narrowed his eyes slightly and echoed in a deep voice: "It must be so. Is the reason why you are late because you had a quick lunch there?"
"Sorry, let me You two are disappointed."
Xiao Ai shook his head slightly and said softly: "Actually, we are with [Maozhu Pavilion]. 】The store manager didn’t have a pleasant conversation.”
Elma’s eyes narrowed slightly and she raised her eyebrows and said, “What’s so unpleasant?”
“We want him to move out of that store. Bella Street, because Countess Lesa, who recently returned to the mansion, doesn’t like the smell of oil smoke.”
Xiao Ai shrugged and spread his hands helplessly: "But the store manager doesn't seem to want to cooperate."
Hemis, who obviously didn't believe this statement, smiled contemptuously and hummed. Said: "Is this the reason why you are late? For the sake of the neighborhood environment Negotiating with others and then being driven back in despair?”
“It’s just because Countess Lesa doesn’t like the smell of oil smoke. After all, the Kevos family is not yet a member of the street committee. So there is no need to take on the responsibility of improving the neighborhood "Obligation of the environment."
Xiao Ai directly ignored the step that Hemis secretly handed over, and said briskly: "By the way, the reason why we were late was not to negotiate with them. The unpleasant chat was actually It only lasted less than five minutes.”
Seeing that the other party did not ask for this step, Hermes immediately stood up with confidence, patted the table in front of him, and said angrily: "So the reason why you are fucking late is just because you want to Are you kidding me? ”
"Be patient, Mr. Hermes."
Xiao Ai showed a sweet smile and said with a harmless smile: "This matter is actually not complicated to explain..."
As soon as he finished speaking, Mu Xuejian, who was standing guard at the door, immediately raised his hand, and then, with two muffled sounds of 'dong-dong-', two bloody people suddenly appeared on the table. thing.
Except for the will-o'-the-wisp who was forced to turn on the [Minor Sensory Protection System], whether it was Imelda, Lorenzo, Alma or Hermes, they all took a breath of cold air at this moment.
The head of Jersey Hampshire, the founder and store manager of [The Hairy Pig House], and the head of another male elf with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks are rolling slowly on the table. The heavier ones are The former stopped in the middle of the long table, while the thinner head rolled all the way to the equally shriveled Lorenzo before stopping. Those small, unblinking eyes happened to be eye-to-eye with the old priest.
"Ah!!!"
With a scream, Father Lourenco, the most shameless member of the committee, fell down from his chair.
"Sorry, Father Lorenzo."
Only then did Xiao Ai say with an apologetic expression: "We don't mean to offend, we just want to explain it in a more intuitive way... …The reason for being late?”
“Wow~”
The will-o'-the-wisp took a breath and stared at the two heads on the table: "So the blood of pig-heads and elves is also green?"
And Hermes turned his head in astonishment. Looking at Xiao Ai: "I know the head of that animal in Jersey Hampshire. That elf over there is..."
"Ochoa Kuteng, the owner of the special seasoning at [Mao Pig House] Developer, high-level alchemist."
Xiao Ai still maintained a decent smile and said softly: "Unfortunately, unless a necromancer can wake him up as soon as possible, that special seasoning will be gone. It will become history forever”
Next second——
"I agree with Countess Lessa Keyworth's application to join the street committee."
Irma Heche moved her legs off the table and raised her hand lazily.
“Second.”
Hermes leaned back in his chair and snorted ‘reluctantly’.
