Chapter 4. Eavesdrop


    The two people in front of him were acquaintances. They were manager Felix of the Light Chamber of Commerce and his lover, Madam Lorent.


    "Fantasy World" was a game for all ages.


    Therefore, he would not see what he was not supposed to see.


    The two of them just hugged each other and kissed endlessly.


    It had nothing to do with his appearance. It was just that Felix''s movements were too rough, and his voice was harsh, like a pig''s nuzzling.


    Char could not stand it anymore, so she threw a pile of junk into the distance, and the sound interrupted the two.


    "Who''s there!"


    Felix looked around nervously, and Char and Apple Pie squatted down to avoid his gaze.


    After a series of rustling sounds, there was no more sound outside. The female seal looked up.


    "They''re gone," She said softly, her tone excited.


    The ce was small, and the female seal''s soft body was almost stuck to Char''s body. He had no choice but to grab her shoulder and move her away before he coulde out.


    This area was divided into three areas by shelves and containers. The wooden container against the wall was 1.5*1*1.5, which was once used to transport ves in the Colosseum.


    "I''ll go in and change my clothes. You hide outside first." Char pointed at a cab.


    "What about me?"


    Apple Pie''s eyes were shining.


    "If you use stealth, those who shouldn''t be able to find you won''t be able to find you, and those who can find you won''t care about you at all," Char said. "There won''t be any problems."


    "Oh."


    "It''s big enough inside. You cane in after I change my clothes. We''ll have to stay inside for at least an hour."


    "Oh!"


    "If you were a man, you''d have long been arrested for being a fanatic."


    Char muttered as he entered.


    However, he was stunned for less than three seconds before Apple Pie crawled in in horror.


    It was pitch-ck inside the box, and the two of them held their breaths.


    Outside, there was the sound of noisy footsteps.


    Their voices were surprisingly messy, and Char could not recall where they were.


    "Officer Kruber, what''s the meaning of this?"


    It was Felix''s voice.


    Char was shocked when he heard the name that he was calling!


    "Why is Kruber from Makus City, the husband of Mrs. Lorent, back so soon?"


    Felix and his wife had just been having an affair here, and in the blink of an eye, Kruber hade down with his men?


    "I''ve heard some rumors, Sir."


    Krupp''s voice was very fierce, and Kruber could already imagine Felix''s fat face trembling.


    It sounded like Mrs. Lorent was not at the scene, and Kruber was questioning him about the false ounts he had made for his wife.


    While the two were arguing, the soldiers led by Kruber spread out in the room, and the sound of the soles of their feet rubbing against the floor could be clearly heard.


    A person was standing outside the cab.


    He was still shaking his legs!


    The cab was big, but there was not much space left after Charid in it, so Apple Pie had to squeeze on top of him.


    The situation was urgent, but this guy was not afraid! Instead, he was so excited that his breathing became hurried.


    His breathnded on Char''s face, and he was getting closer.


    The people outside were shaking their legs faster and faster.


    Until a loud p was heard.


    "You vulgar human, you, you actually dare to hit me!"


    "I''ve been tolerating you for a long time! Where did you hide her?"


    "You''re talking nonsense! I''m not rted to your wife!"


    One could tell from the sound that Felix had rolled twice and knocked over a few chairs.


    Then Kruber said, "I saw the two of youe in, and you''re the only one who went out, and you still want to deny it! Search!"


    F*ck!<novelnext>  </novelnext>


    "Kruber, are you crazy?"


    Char''s muscles tensed up. If he was found out, it would be the most embarrassing moment he had ever experienced.


    A man and a woman were hiding in the dark, and he was even wearing women''s clothes!


    Creak


    The cab door above their heads was opened.


    Then, there was the knocking sound of a sword inside.


    The voice seemed to knock on the two''s hearts.


    Char unconsciously clenched her fists, thinking about how to escape.


    Apple Pie was not nervous. Instead, she was even more excited.


    The breath he exhaled was like a burning fire.


    The door above was closed.


    Char could even imagine the soldier bending down to open the door.


    The timing was just as he had expected. The door had just been pulled open a crack, and the light of the torch shone in. An orange line fell on the two''s crossed legs.


    "Here!"


    An excited shout came from the other end, followed by the scream of a woman being pushed.


    It turned out that Felix hadn''t sent Mrs. Lorent away, but had hidden her in a box opposite.


    The soldier outside the cab seemed to be looking back and didn''t notice the person inside. He closed the cab door with a bang and quickly went to meet hispanions.


    Char heaved a long sigh of relief, and his entire body finally rxed.


    However, in the darkness, the girl''s eyes were burning with fire.


    The fire slowly spread.


    Everything quieted down, and the air became calm again.


    The argument outside had ended.


    The hot air had yet to spread when a new wave of people came outside.


    Char perked up.


    This time, it was the main character.


    Other than the sudden appearance of Kruber, things were still under control.


    "Can you tell me now? Why are you being so mysterious?"


    If Ri was here, she would have noticed that the speaker had an obvious South Sea county ent.


    John Hokin, from South Sea County, was the man who flirted with big-bobbed girls on stage. He used to be Francis Drake''s first mate, a former pirate, and now a merchant. Their Chamber of Commerce was called the ck Pearl.


    The industry transition was very sessful.


    "As expected of One-legged John, straightforward enough. I''ll just be direct. The ck Pearl is hidden here."


    The other voice was sharp and familiar.


    "What?"


    John raised his voice at first, then suddenly lowered it.


    "If it was in the past, you would have jumped off the deck to tell such a lie. Don''t tell me you''re joking!"


    "Don''t put on an act, John. Didn''t youe here because you heard the news? Don''t tell me that you''ve been idle these days."


    "Hmph, I don''t believe in some random rumor. Are you saying that she will appear at the auction tonight?"


    "I didn''t say that. I just heard that there will be apass that won''t move in the auction. With it, you can find the thing you want the most."


    John Hokin was silent.


    "You called me here just to tell me this information that everyone knows?" He asked sternly after a moment.


    "No, I''m here to talk business with you! After all, you know that we, the Mushroom Man, love to talk about business the most."


    "Hmph, I''ve heard that those who do business with you don''t have a good ending!"


    "Haha... Let''s put it this way. I also want to get that treasure. Why don''t we work together to find what I want? Don''t think that the Chamber of Commerce is full of stinky fish and rotten prawns. There might be a few sharks hiding behind them, and they are also after the treasures. We can sign a contract, and this will be more secure." John Hokin silent again. He was clearly tempted.


    Every sailor desired to return to the sea and die at sea.


    Just as he was about to make a decision, the cab door beside him was suddenly pushed open and a voice came out.


    "Count me in on this deal!"
