Examination of the Imperial Examination - Chapter 50
Alvin looked sideways and saw a boy of about fifteen or sixteen, with a thin body, a green face, delicate facial features, a pair of bright red eyes, mature and mature, wearing an old coat that was not suitable for his age, wearing a dome hat, his back Wearing a worn shoulder.
“Hey!” This outfit was similar to the Zimang party mentioned by the thief before, and he instantly matched the boy in front of him with a character in the original book.
“Mr. 5 pounds, Ian Wright.” After figuring out who it was, he smiled kindly at the other party.
“Don’t meddle, kid.” Seeing someone disrupting the situation and finding out that the other party was a child, he wanted to pretend to be vicious to scare the other party away.
Originally, he should have left if he was exposed by others. There are a lot of patrolling police at the station, but he thought that the thick wallet might change his current bad life, so he decided to take a gamble.
Ian Wright nodded slightly, continued to look at the homeless man in front of him, and said:
“As far as I know, the station is the site of the pickpocket party. If you do business on their site without saying hello, it will not end well. Also, you have been standing here long enough, and the patrol officers over there have already Noticed this way,”
“Doing business? Do you call it business? Is this the ‘slang’ in Taoism?” It was the first time Alvin heard the word business defined in this way, and he felt very interesting.
When the thief heard Ian Wright talking about the pickpockets, he couldn’t help shrinking his right hand, then turned his head to see the left side, and the patrolling policeman kept looking this way.
Looking at the wallet in Alvin’s hand, he glared at Ian Wright reluctantly, turned and walked into the crowd.
“Thank you for your help, I think, I should pay you.” Alvin smiled slightly, took out a note from his wallet and handed it over.
“No sir, I just happened to be passing by. You can solve it without my help.”
Ian Wright shook his head and said with a smile.
“That might waste my time and delay plowing more important things. You deserve it at this time. After all, you took the risk.” Alvin shook his head and said.
Just kidding, how could I let you run away? In the original book, Ian Wright has very well-informed information, and later became the leader, so Backlund might be able to use it in the future.
Ian Wright, who had planned to refuse, saw that the other party handed him a 1-pound bill. He felt that the George III on the bill seemed to wink him, and his hand actually took it over.
After hearing the news for Detective Zeriel for so long, I only got 4 pounds of praise. I didn’t expect that it was just a small favor on a whim, and the other party directly gave a pound as a thank you gift.
“Thank you, you are such a generous gentleman.” Ian Wright put the money in his pocket, touched the 5-pound note inside, and sincerely thanked him.
“I may need to leave first, and you are welcome to Backlund.” Ian glanced at the crowd, took off his hat and bowed slightly.
“It’s a pity, originally I wanted to invite you for a drink and look forward to our next meeting.” Alvin also saw Ike’s actions. The other party may be waiting for someone, and now the target appears and wants to leave.
“I met an acquaintance when I first came here, and I started to look forward to it. This time’s trip to Backlund.”
Looking at Ian quickly entering the crowd, skillfully interspersing in the crowd, until the figure disappeared, he smiled and said to himself.
“Meow.”
Yuumi, who was on his shoulders, shook his head ill-naturedly, expressing his objection. Now he is starting to miss the lawn at home and the old man’s garden.
“I told you to stay at home and wait for you to come.” Looking at the listless Yuumi, Alvin felt a little distressed.
Looking at the three black handprints on the brown-yellow wallet, he shook his head.
“I bought this for today’s negotiation.” He took out his handkerchief and wiped it. In order to prevent this from happening, he put the wallet in the dried fish skin bag that had been emptied around Yuumi’s neck.
He unfolded the map to confirm the direction, walked towards the department store, and went to prepare to experience the subway of this era.
However, when he arrived at the ticket gate, he was stopped by the security guard, pointing to the wooden sign next to him.
“Pets are not allowed in the car.”
“Then how can the steam train take it.” Alvin was a little confused, shook his head helplessly, and could only turn around and leave to find a rental carriage.
I wasn’t able to see the steam subway that Klein was shocked by as described in the original book, so I was somewhat disappointed.
After spending 1 pound 3 soles, the driver agreed to take him to the Hilton.
It took about forty minutes to finally find Townsend Street in the Hiltons District. According to the address on the telegram, he pushed open the door of the Red Roof Hotel and walked in.
“Hello sir, this is the Red Roof Hotel. How can I help you?” Walking to the bar of the hotel, a female waiter with beautiful blonde hair asked him with a smile.
“I’m looking for Mr. Benoy in Room 217.” Alvin said with a smile.
“Excuse me, are you Mr. Alvin Tieyan?” The female waiter said with a blushing face looking at Alvin’s gentle smile.
“Yes.” Alvin nodded affirmatively. It seems that lawyer Benoy notified the bar in advance.
“Yes, but we stipulate that pets cannot enter the accommodation area.” The female waiter looked at him apologetically.
“Why are there so many rules? I remember that Audrey the Justice often brought Susie to various precious occasions.”
Alvin cast a helpless glance at Yuumi, Yuumi seemed to have understood something, and twitched her tail in dissatisfaction.
“Then can I trouble you to tell me about it?”
“No problem, please wait a moment.” After the waitress finished speaking, she turned and walked to the second floor.
He touched Yuumi’s cat’s head and comforted the little guy.
After a while, I saw a familiar figure walking down the stairs.
“Welcome to Alvin, I thought you would arrive tomorrow.” Lawyer Benoy said happily when he saw Alvin.
“Good noon, lawyer Benoy, you still look so energetic.” Alvin greeted with a smile.
“You look in formal clothes, which is more in line with your temperament. I think you still lack a cane.”
Benoy was a little surprised when he saw that Alvin was dressed in formal clothes, but it was a little weird. Instead of a top hat and a cane, he brought a cat with him.
“I think we need to find a place to have a good talk. I can’t wait to hear the results of this battle.” Al pointed to Yuumi on his shoulder and said helplessly.
Seeing the black cat on Alvin’s shoulder, Lawyer Benoy immediately understood and said, “Wait a minute, I need to bring those documents.”
Alvin and lawyer Benoy, who was wearing a copper-colored soft hat and holding a silver cane, left the Red Roof Hotel~www.mtlnovel.com~ and walked a long way before they found a restaurant that allowed pets to enter and was of quite good quality. It’s called Dixie flavor.
“I didn’t expect you to bring it.” The two sat in the box, and lawyer Benoy looked at the cat on Alvin’s shoulder and said.
“Meow” Yuumi shook her ears and glanced at Benoy.
“It’s my bodyguard. When I came to Backlund this time, what impressed me the most was not only the air here, but also the pickpockets at the station.”
Alvin smiled and learned in an exaggerated tone, a way of greeting that Backlund has been popular for hundreds of years.
Hearing the word “bodyguard”, lawyer Benoy was at a loss for words. He clearly remembered how cruel the cat was, and instantly sympathized with the thief.
“Tell me about this cooperation.” The waiter who was knocking on the door came in to put down his drinks, and after he went out, Alvin said.
Speaking of this business, Benoy’s face was obviously excited.
“The day after I got the idea of ”rickshaw” from you, I took a steam train to Backlund. After a day of getting to know the person in charge, I successfully met with the person in charge, and the other person was very interested in the idea of ”rickshaw” .”
“I’m very interested. It looks like I have a plan, and I have great success.”
Alvin breathed a sigh of relief silently. This was related to his promotion to Sequence 8 “Scholar”. If he was unsuccessful this time, he might have to postpone it, which he didn’t want to see.
Benoy took a sip of the black tea, and then said: “I personally think that this idea is very promising, and it is obviously not cost-effective to sell it directly to the other party. You can think about it, so I didn’t propose it. We have plans to sell it directly. In case the other party knows the hole card, even if they want to sell it, they can get a good price.”
