My Maid Knight

2022-03-09/p> Chapter 33 Pseudonyms (Second Update)

“Squeak–”

The old door was pushed open, Roy stepped into the funeral hall and looked around.

Literally, this place is dedicated to white affairs, with all kinds of wreaths hanging on the walls and black boxes of various shapes on the floor, ranging from coffins to small boxes.

We want to meet the various needs of different customers.

“A guest?”

A Mediterranean head sticks out of a compartment inside the house.

Then he saw Roy’s outfit clearly. The boy’s clothes were exquisite in workmanship and looked extremely decent, and his temperament was completely different from the sloppy and airy gangsters and mercenaries outside.

Every shrewd businessman has a pair of Divine Vision. He understands that today’s business is coming to the door.

“You’re the boss here?” Roy extend the hand.

“Yes, I am.”

Mediterranean uncle trotted out of the cubicle and shook his hand.

When he closed his hand, there was already a silver sol in his hand.

A silver sol is already worth the profit of the store for several days.

Mediterranean uncle narrowed his eyes with a smile.

“Oh, you’re so generous. My name is Green, sir, what should I call you?”

“I’m a reporter for the Sidonia newspaper, and my name is Roy… uh, My surname is Roy and my name is Yi.”

Roy pondered, suddenly feeling that it would be better to use a pseudonym at this time.

“Reporter?” Green was slightly taken aback, “What can I do for you?”

There are not many newspaper offices in Sidonia, and most of them are located in Upper City. It is precisely the proof of Roy’s noble status.

Although he also had some doubts in his heart, after all, this boy looked too young, but it was not a big problem. As long as he paid more, he would believe you if you said you were the boss of the newspaper.

The smile on Green’s face became even more flattering, and he warmly welcomed Roy into the booth and poured tea and water.

“I’m going to do some research.”

Roy took out the prepared note and pen, and finished the interview, “How’s business in Lower City, Green Boss? “

“It’s alright! We are a century-old brand, and almost everything in the three districts is in my hands.” Green said proudly.

“Excuse me, but I don’t think your store is very big, so I thought the business was not good.”

“There are so many poor people!” Green sighed , “In Lower City, what kind of people die the most? Mercenaries! How dangerous are outside the wall, they run outside the wall all the year round, can’t they die quickly!”

“But they are also the poorest. People have a bad life. When they die outside, they can’t even get their bodies back. Even if they bring back a whole body, most people can’t pay for the funeral. You bring your own cards!”

“Is the cost of the funeral too high?”

“Actually, it’s okay, they mainly pick it up, and they don’t even have the money for a coffin board. I don’t want to come out.”

Green shook the head, “I’m a mercenary, I don’t take my own affairs in my mind by nature, I only care about being chic in my life, but I don’t know that the small box is their eternal life. My home! So most of our clients are decent people in the city.”

“Is there a commission from the residents of Underground City?”

“Underground City? haha, Sir, you are joking, those poor ghosts can’t even afford to eat! The mercenaries are poor, but they can support themselves, but what about those trash?”

Green slapped the table, “They eat reap Without sowing alms, living next to the cemetery, thinking about swindle every day, the crimes that happened in Lower City were most likely done by people from Underground City, they were Sidonia’s assholes!”

” But I heard… you guys just hired a girl here a while ago, called Daisy, and she’s also from Underground City, right?”

“ahhhh, yes, but a gentleman bought her Lower City. She is from the military, and with him as a guarantee, there should be no problem with the girl’s character.”

Roy looked thoughtful: “Do you remember what that gentleman looked like? ?”

Green was caught in the memory: “Well, he should also be from Upper City. Wearing a top hat, holding a cane, well-dressed, young and well-spoken.”

“Black hair, gray eyes?”

“Ah yes.”

Roy asked: “The military people, always helping… Underground City’s Can someone solve the hukou problem?”

“How is that possible!”

Green He shook his head again and again, “The people in the military actually hate the residents of Underground City more than we do, because they always cause trouble and cause a lot of trouble for the military. It is not uncommon for Underground City residents who smuggled to other towns to be caught by the military, even killed.

“So I guess, it should be the residence certificate that the master bought for her out of his own pocket. I was surprised at the time, I thought he wanted to support a lover, but it didn’t look like it! Otherwise, why should What about working in our store? And we haven’t seen each other since.”

Roy nodded: “Is Daisy in the store now? I have something to ask her.”

Roy nodded. p>

“I’m here, wait a moment.”

Green walked out of the cubicle and shouted, “Elena! Come here quickly!”

He turned his head and explained, “I changed her name. Daisy is a cheap name for Underground City. It’s too cheap to say it.”

The residents of Underground City don’t have their own surnames, even The names are also randomly taken from animals or flowers and grass.

A few seconds later, there was a rush of footsteps from far to near.

“Boss, what are you calling me?”

A 16- or 17-year-old girl walked in quickly, wearing a plain gray work uniform, with a thin body and a pale face. Yes, it has a youthful and lively feeling that matches his age.

“This gentleman wants to see you by name.”

Green instructed with a serious expression, “Be smart and don’t make the guests unhappy, you know?”

When he turned to Roy, his face was full of smiles again: “Mister Luo, then you can talk slowly, I won’t disturb you.”

Roy’s mouth twitched slightly.

I always feel as if I have a pseudonym, and I don’t seem to have a pseudonym.

“That…”

Elena looked at him nervously, “What do I need to do?”

“No. I’m worried, I’m a reporter, and I just want to hire you as a guide for a day.”

Roy said with a blushing face, “I plan to go to Underground City to gather information, but I’m not familiar with the place, I hope You can go with me.”

He stood up and threw a silver saur at Elena, “Don’t worry, I won’t treat you badly. If there’s no problem, let’s go now? “

Roy walked to the exit of the compartment, but found Elena’s pestle motionless in place, and couldn’t help but wonder: “What’s wrong? The price is not a problem, when I come back, I can give you more.”

Elena stared blankly at the Silver Coin in her hand, her eyes filled with fear, she pleaded in a low voice: “Sir, please forgive me, I can’t do this kind of thing again. “

“What kind of thing?” Roy asked quickly, “Have you ever been threatened?”

“No, no…” She shed helpless tears, “I promised my benefactor that I can’t do such shameless things again, please forgive me!”

Roy: “???”

Is this an illusion? ? I always feel like it’s not the first time I’ve been misunderstood like this.

“Listen, Miss Elena.”

Roy took a deep breath, “I’m serious, please believe me, I’m really serious, you just have to be me Really!”

Elena looked at him with tears in her eyes: “Why do you give me so much money if you just point me in the right direction?”

I I don’t have change, I can’t find it!

Roy has a toothache. Today he understands how big the price difference is between Upper City and Lower City.

Seeing that she didn’t believe her lies, Roy took out the note: “Actually, I know your benefactor, he introduced me to you, his name is Klein, right? “

Elena was illiterate and could not read the writing on the note. She clutched her chest and her eyes became more vigilant: “I don’t know any Klein, my benefactor’s name is Sherlock.”

Roy: “???”

Klein, you also use a pseudonym?

Thanks to the dilapidated scholar for the reward, and continue to ask for tickets for the second update!
