Chapter 33 Maine
Chapter 33 Maine
The girl who appeared behind was about 15 or 6 years old.
She has pale pink pupils, long pink ponytails, and is wearing a gorgeous pale pink dress and small leather shoes. Even her cute little face is smudged into pale pink because of anger.
"Finally I caught you, you nasty thief! How dare you embarrass me like this!"
She chased after angrily, and shouted to Xiao Lin: "Although I don't know how you stole my wallet, I will definitely send you to the guards and let the guards arrest you! Miss Ben tells you, You're done!"
Anyone who is suddenly scolded will not be in a good mood, especially if they are misunderstood.
But Kobayashi knew that he couldn't say anything at this time.
The more anxious to explain, the more the other party will think that she is guilty, and it will fuel her anger even more.
The best way is to let the girl vent and wait for her brain to calm down.
Kobayashi didn't move.
After she was exhausted from scolding, she said lightly: "Have you finished?"
"Huh?! You thief..."
"Don't call me a thief, it's rude, don't you know that, and what evidence do you have that I'm a thief?"
Xiao Lin's reply made the girl choke hard.
Although she was very upset in her heart, she couldn't find a reason to refute.
He could only stare at Kobayashi angrily.
"I got this money bag from an old woman with handicapped legs and eyesight... Oh, it seems that you have also realized it."
Seeing her face change suddenly, Xiao Lin couldn't help chuckling, with a hint of mockery.
"W-how could it be, she was obviously helping her out of kindness..." The girl seemed unbelievable that her kindness was being used.
After a while, she came back to her senses, and said to Xiao Lin in a somewhat arrogant and unreasonable manner: "Then you should return the wallet to me, it is my wallet!"
"Your? Any evidence?"
"There are 9 gold and 15 silver in the wallet. If you don't believe me, you can open it and have a look."
She seemed pretty sure of how much money was in there.
Kobayashi opened his pocket and roughly counted, and it was indeed as she said.
Not only that, but there are a lot of copper coins at the bottom, which is just a lot more money.
"Hey, really."
"Am I right! Does this prove that the wallet is mine... Wait, what are you doing?!"
Under the disbelieving eyes of the girl, Xiao Lin took out a gold coin from his pocket and put it in his pocket calmly.
"Okay, not anymore."
"Aha?!"
"Now it's 8 gold and 15 silver. The money here doesn't match what you said."
The smile on Kobayashi's face was even wider.
Indiscriminate slander, do you really think you are easy to bully?
How can it be done without making things difficult?
"The amount of money can be guessed randomly, and you may just be lucky enough to guess it right. If I don't show a key proof, I won't return it to you."
"You bastard...!"
The girl gritted her teeth and looked at Xiao Lin.
She had never seen such a rascal, but she had nothing to do with him, so she once had the idea of "I really want to bombard him!" ' Horrible thought.
But it won't work if you don't get your money back.
The girl pursed her lips, squeezed her fists, and whispered unwillingly: "My name is sewn on the inner wall of the wallet, Ma Yin."
Opening the money bag, I found that there were indeed two small characters sewn on the inner wall.
It was obviously Xiaolin's first time seeing this kind of writing, but he somehow knew what the words were.
—Main.
It seemed that the purse was indeed hers.
He took out the gold coin from his pocket and threw it to her together with the money bag.
"what?"
Ma Yin was very surprised, and she didn't seem to expect that Xiao Lin just made things difficult for her and returned the money to her.
"Do not want?"
"how is this possible!"
Ma Yin tightly covered the purse, for fear that it would be stolen again.
Seeing her like this, Xiao Lin couldn't help chuckling.
But Ma Yin knew that she was making a fool of herself, but she still pretended to pull up the hem of her clothes, pretending to be reserved like a noble lady.
"Thank you anyway."
"You're welcome. If you can restrain your temper a little, I think we will get along better."
Xiao Lin prodded her a little, which was considered a small revenge.
"you……!"
Ma Yin was short of breath, but she had just suffered a loss and could only say sullenly: "I see, thank you for your advice."
"However, if you must thank me, you might as well treat me to a meal. I happen to be hungry."
Xiao Lin raised his eyebrows, as if hinting at Ma Yin.
"Hmph, it's just a treat, no problem!"
Ma Yin was not stingy either, and generously agreed.
—In a tavern—
"Let's order first."
The three of them sat in the corner, ordered some food, and then started talking.
Most of the time, Kobayashi is asking and Ma Yin is talking.
According to information, this country is an ancient country with a thousand-year civilization, and it is also the most powerful country in the world.
The supreme ruler of the country is the emperor, and the authority is divided into civil officials who manage politics and generals who manage the military. The head of the civil officials is the minister, and the head of the military generals is the general.
The city where Kobayashi is currently located is the capital of the empire, where the emperor and ministers are located.
Although it is the center of the empire, it is decayed, and people's lives are very difficult.
There are rumors that the chief culprit who makes people live in poverty is the minister who manipulated the emperor behind the scenes.
Ma Yin gritted her teeth when talking about the minister, as if she had some deep hatred with the minister.
But these are just backgrounds.
What Kobayashi is most concerned about is the thing called [Teigu] that Ma Yin said.
It is said that 1000 years ago, in order to maintain a long-term rule, the founding emperor used the huge financial resources and power of the empire to convene the most senior craftsmen from all over the world, using legendary super dangerous species as materials, plus rare metals such as Ohari steel With a large number of long-lost secret techniques, 48 weapons that cannot be copied have been developed, and they are collectively called Teigu.
Teigu, the empire, the imperial capital, the ministers, Main, and the darkness hidden in the prosperity...
Kobayashi knew which world he came to.
"You don't even know such an ordinary thing?!" Ma Yin said dryly, and after drinking a large glass of water, she couldn't help complaining: "It's unbelievable, where did you come from? ?”
"Oh, I'm really a country boy."
Xiao Lin didn't deny it, "I came out of the village because I wanted to get ahead in the imperial capital."
"Country people?"
Ma Yin looked at him strangely, and then at Liu Zi who was wearing a more gorgeous dress than her.
But everyone has their own secrets, so she won't ask.
When she saw Liu Zi sitting quietly on the seat without saying a word, she took the initiative and politely said: "Isn't the dish you ordered not in line with this young lady's liking? Why don't you let her order again."
"No, no need."
Xiao Lin took the initiative to decline her kindness, saying: "She doesn't need to eat, she doesn't even need to drink water or sleep."
"Huh? Who doesn't need to eat, drink and sleep... wait!"
Ma Yin just wanted to scold, but she stopped suddenly. She thought of Kobayashi's strong reaction when he heard Teigu, and seemed to realize something.
"Could it be that she is... Teigu?"
"……Um."
Under Ma Yin's nervous and expectant eyes, Xiao Lin nodded slowly after a moment of silence.
Really Teigu?
Ma Yin's eyes widened in excitement, she actually met a wild Tegu envoy!
As we all know, Teigu is very powerful.
If there is one more Tegu envoy, they will be more confident in getting rid of the ministers and overthrowing the corrupt rule of the empire!
Never let any Tegushi go!
Recalling what her boss said, Ma Yin coughed lightly and said to Xiao Lin: "I remember you said that you are a countryman, and you came out of the village just to get ahead?"
"Well, that's right."
"Do you need my help? Just treat it as a thank you gift for helping me find my wallet."
"This is..."
"Don't be a mother-in-law!"
Seeing that Xiao Lin was hesitant, Ma Yin patted the table angrily and said, "My lady rarely thanks others. Since I say I want to help, you just accept it honestly! Otherwise, start from a small soldier and want to become a How much time does the captain or general need? In the imperial capital, connections are the most important!"
"Is it possible to get promoted quickly if you have connections?"
"That's right!"
"...Okay, I accept."
Seeing Xiao Lin accepting her help, Ma Yin was secretly happy.
— hooked!
