Chapter 93 Drool
“Okay, maybe you are right, it seems that my moving plan needs to be investigated on the spot.”
This weird discovery made it feel It was a little creepy. It couldn't figure out what was going on. Only the mouse knew how tenacious the mouse was, but now all its relatives had disappeared.
This discovery made it feel a little scared, but it is a mouse after all, and it has definitely encountered many dangers in daily life in the past, so it quickly stopped thinking about it, Nohill promised The generous reward given to it did not give it back, but...
The tail quickly climbed up the table leg along the table with a whole pig thigh. He stood on the table and looked around. , sniffed twice more, then directly moved his mouth to nibble a small piece of meat from the pig leg, held it with his two paws and started eating.
"...Tail?"
"What? I was frightened. It's okay to eat something, Chewchew."
Nohir covered his head with a headache, this one The fat rat's body of meat really didn't grow for no reason. If it got the chance, it would really eat it with all its might.
"...You are free to do as you like, but the longer you stay here, the greater the possibility of encountering danger."
Nohir was also helpless when encountering this situation. After all, It wasn't actually familiar with the tail, and he couldn't force the tail to go against his will. He could only use words to admonish it, hoping that it would finish the job soon.
"Oh, come on, you stingy man, don't scare me with these words. What I eat is not yours. Besides, there is so much food here. How much can I eat as a little mouse? Who cares?"
After Tails said this, he chewed the meat in his hand twice more, swallowed it, threw the remaining food in his hand casually, and once again turned his main attention to Nohir and handed it to him. on the task.
It had been very full before, but it had never eaten this pork leg before, so it couldn't help but be curious and wanted to try it. But it was not Nohir who made it move so quickly. With the urging, it smelled more fragrant.
Nohir didn't think much about it after seeing the tail start to move. At this time, he connected all his senses to the tail.
Although doing this will make his body completely lose all five senses, he must remember the internal structure of the manor from all aspects so that he can easily sneak in at night.
Nohir wrapped himself tightly in a cloak of concealment, and used the effect of activating the cloak to hide himself in the corner with pure darkness. From this moment on, his vision, hearing, and smell were all shared with Tails, and even Under the function of animal communication, he can also use the mouth of his tail to communicate with other animals, but this function has no practical significance at present.
“Oh, it smells so good. I haven’t smelled this fragrance for a long time. There must be something better than the food here hidden behind this door!”
Tails came to the door of the storage food storage room. It couldn't wait to get out, but the door was closed tightly, and it was absolutely impossible to squeeze out. It could only look for other people of the same kind again to get out before that. channel.
“Aha, I found it.”
Tail found a secret hole in the corner of the door. However, when it was about to reach the end of the hole, it found that the hole was occupied by someone. Blocked with gravel.
But this is not a problem for it. The mouse has very flexible claws. It only takes a little time to clear the blockage caused by these small gravels, or at least clear a channel that it can pass through.
"Who would hate mice so much? Who would do such a cruel thing? Blocking the road that the mice worked hard to build, this mouse cursed him. No matter who did this behavior, this mouse would like him to eat it. He choked on cheese when he was eating his own cheese. Oh, this rat hates any unnecessary activities except walking."
Tail complained while muttering to himself, and at the same time, he used his paws to clean up the things he could reach. It tried its best to move carefully without making any sound, and Nohir also focused on the tail's hearing. He heard some human conversations while the tail was cleaning the passage.
"Mr. Gabore, how are the servants preparing the food?" "Don't worry, Butler Fendrick, it's almost ready. Is the Duke still satisfied with the breakfast I prepared for her today?" ”
"Well, I think the Duke should be satisfied. If he is not satisfied, then I am not here to confirm how the food you prepared for the servants is."
"The Duke will probably give it to you directly I’ll give you a sum of money and send you away.”
“Haha, no scolding is considered satisfactory, and no praise for good work. It seems that I don’t want the Duke to give me a salary increase. What a pity. , but fortunately I am just a cook, even if the food is not good, I will not be slapped downstairs by the Duke."
"Please be careful with your words, Mr. Gaborei, and the Duke's behavior. It's not something we servants can discuss at will. Please cherish this job."
"Oh, Mr. Butler, please believe me, I couldn't be more satisfied with working in the Duke's family. Although the money I can earn is not as good as when I was a chef in a tavern, and I am the only one working in the entire kitchen, with no one to help me, but at least this resume can allow me to work in the kitchen. I have earned a lot of face in front of acquaintances, but I don’t want to lose this reputation.”
"...Then please don't say anything to embarrass me, Mr. Gabore. I will arrange for a servant to pick up the meal in five minutes. After that, I will ask you to carefully prepare the Duke's lunch. Today's staple food is smoked ham." Paired with a wheel of Waterdeep cheese, a whole roasted turkey and a bottle of Ebanks,...I want the wine now."
"Understood, sir, I'll get it right now."
Then there were heavy footsteps. The chef opened the door to the pantry and walked towards the wine rack. Then there was a crisp sound of glass bottles clinking together.
Seeing this, the butler turned and left, while the chef stood on tiptoes and began to rummage through the wine rack.
“Look, Ebanks, damn, this wine rack is full of Ebanks. I really don’t understand why the Duke drinks such cheap wine. Although this wine is indeed delicious, Shouldn't the Duke drink something more stylish?"
Gaborei took down a bottle of wine and walked towards the kitchen lift. The Duke did not allow servants to go upstairs. No one was allowed, not even the butler, so in the Duke's mansion, no matter whether it was food or orders, Passed by the Duke via a series of exquisite lifts.
Just yesterday, a maid did not listen to the advice and went upstairs to clean, but was slapped down by the Duke. He was complaining about this just now because he had a good impression of the maid. This incident caused his long-simmering dissatisfaction to explode in front of the butler, but he still did not dare to say such words to the Duke.
“Damn it, who did this!”
Gaborei turned around and walked a few steps when he suddenly saw the smoked ham on the chopping board that he just bought yesterday. With a clear bite mark, he immediately rushed over to take a closer look, and found the small piece of leftover crumbs.
“Damn it! These rats are so pervasive, they obviously just cleaned up a batch last week!”
The sight of the bite mark almost made Gabore faint. He immediately checked the other food in the storage room. The sausages hanging on the wall were untouched, as was the smoked turkey, and the pile was reserved by the Duke for lunch. of cheese wheels, oh thank goodness they didn't get bitten either.
Gaborei immediately picked up a knife and trimmed off the bitten piece of flesh, so that others could not tell that the thing had been gnawed by rats. Then he remembered that the bottle of wine had not been sent over yet. , he quickly placed it on the lifting frame and shook it up. After doing this, he started shouting directly.
"Slobber! You have your work cut out for you! Go catch that damn mouse!"
"Meow."
