As it turned out, Hu Tao's "Face Fruit" was indeed powerful. The flaxen-haired girl ran to the back and rummaged for a while. Soon, she picked out some commissions and brought them over. As a result, Hu Tao found a commission to go to the City of Silver.
"Look, I found it!"
With the commission in hand, Hu Tao excitedly ran up to Fangzheng and Kuang San and waved it in front of them.
"The client is the Sacred Silver Chamber. They want us to help escort a batch of supplies from here to Grey Whale Port, and then go to the City of Silver. Let's take this!"
Hearing Hu Tao's question, Fangzheng nodded, then glanced at Kuang San. Kuang San also smiled.
"That's good. Let's get ready. We'll set off in a while."
"No problem. I'll go get the paperwork done now."
After saying this, Hu Tao carried the shovel on her back and rushed to the counter with the commission in hand. Fangzheng saw her sign her name on the commission and stamp it smoothly. Then, the flaxen-haired girl looked at Hu Tao with a reluctant look in her eyes. She waved at her and left ….
It was like a wife looking at her husband who had left home.
At that moment, Kuang San commented, "Today's one is not bad.
"Today's one is better. He's more introverted."
"What do you mean?"
Hearing Kuang San's comment, Fangzheng glanced at her, while Kuang San smiled.
"Hu Tao's popularity is beyond your expectations. There are many fans of her in the Mercenary Association. Several girls are obsessed with her. This one is not bad. She's introverted. She'll be satisfied after saying a few words. The one with pink hair last time was more interesting. She came to me and asked me about my relationship with Hu Tao. She even said she wanted to confess to Hu Tao and marry her …. "
"Is there such a thing?"
Hearing this, Fangzheng was shocked. He had been in the Origin World for a long time, but he had never thought about marriage in the Origin World.
"Of course, you don't know how powerful these little girls are. In the past, there were a few blind guys in the association who slandered Hu Tao behind her back and harassed her for no reason. In the end, he was coaxed by these girls into running off to god knows what wilderness. It's hard to say if he can even come back alive …. "
"And then?"
At this moment, Fangzheng felt like he was listening to a story. The more he listened, the more interesting it became. As for Kuang San, he covered his mouth and chuckled.
"A little girl will always be a little girl. She had already asked Hu Tao out to confess her love, but she couldn't say anything at the last moment. Instead, she made Hu Tao think she was sick, so she took her temperature …"
As he spoke, Kuang San pressed his forehead to take his temperature. Fangzheng instantly understood.
"…. Then the little girl fainted, so the confession didn't succeed?"
"That's right."
"That's interesting …. Hu Tao didn't notice it herself?"
"Hu Tao's personality …."
At this point, Kuang San paused, as if thinking about something.
"…. She didn't notice it. I felt like she was deliberately avoiding this kind of thing, so I didn't ask too much."
Hearing this, Fangzheng nodded and didn't say much. Everyone had their own secrets. Fangzheng actually didn't know much about what happened to Hu Tao. If she didn't want to talk about it, he wouldn't use the book to investigate. But no matter what happened, it was all in the past. It was enough to see Hu Tao so happy.
"Okay, let's go."
At this time, Hu Tao ran back to Fangzheng and Kuang San excitedly and said to them with a smile, "The person in charge of the Sacred Silver Chamber is in Half Duck Hotel.
"The person in charge of the Sacred Silver Chamber of Commerce is in the Half Duck Inn. We'll go and contact him now, then we can start preparing … Little Red, are you alright?"
"No problem."
Fangzheng nodded slightly and answered. At that moment, Fangzheng also noticed a gaze. He turned around and saw the flaxen-haired girl behind the counter staring at him with a complicated and conflicted gaze. There was anxiety, uneasiness, envy, and a hint of threat ….
It seemed that Kuang San was right.
Hu Tao had been here for several months, so she could be regarded as a local snake. She knew the situation around here like the back of her hand. Without much effort, Hu Tao led Kuang San and Fangzheng to Half Duck Hotel. Then, Fangzheng saw a girl with a short ponytail greeting them with a familiar look in her eyes. Hu Tao chatted with the girl for a while and immediately received a reply. They then went to the door of the client's room.
Knock, knock, knock.
When they reached the door of the room, the lively Hu Tao finally restrained herself. She stretched out her hand and knocked on the door gently. Soon, a voice came from behind the door.
"Who is it?"
"Hello, we are mercenaries who have accepted the commission. We want to discuss the details of the commission with you."
"Okay, please wait a moment …."
Hearing Hu Tao's answer, the voice inside the door paused for a moment. Then, with a soft click, the door slowly opened.
"Come in."
Hu Tao didn't seem to care. She walked in with a smile, followed by Kuang San and Fangzheng. But what made Fangzheng curious was … .for some reason, he felt that he had heard the client's voice somewhere before.
After entering the room, Fangzheng looked around. It was just an ordinary guest room, but if there was anything wrong, it would be … .it was empty.
At that moment, the client's voice sounded again.
"Shovel? You're …. Miss Hu Tao? "
Because Hu Tao's surname was very difficult to pronounce in the language of the Overworld, it was as difficult as reciting a jingle. So after staying here for a long time, people basically called her by her name or simply called her the "Shovel Princess". Hu Tao got used to it.
"It's me."
Hu Tao also looked around curiously. From the looks of it, she was as curious as Fangzheng about where the client was. As for the client, she was still nowhere to be seen. Her voice was also suppressed and she looked a little timid.
"Where are you?"
"Ah, sorry …. I'm not very good at meeting people directly …."
Along with this voice, Fangzheng soon saw a shadow flash in front of him. Then, a girl in luxurious clothes appeared out of thin air behind the chair. She grabbed the back of the chair and carefully poked her head out like a soldier facing a fierce artillery attack from behind a bunker. She looked at the group and nodded.
"Hello, I'm Katie from the Sacred Silver Chamber …."
So it's her!
Upon seeing this, Fangzheng immediately recalled that he had found the client's voice a little familiar. Now that he thought about it, wasn't it the noble lady who had raised her Stealth to the Legendary stage that he had encountered during the mission?
That was close!
Seeing her appear, Fangzheng couldn't help but suck in a cold breath. Fortunately, he had transformed in advance just in case. Otherwise, if he had bumped into Katie without any warning, he would have been exposed in an instant. How the hell could he play Peerless Sneak then? But now …. no matter how smart Katie was, she probably wouldn't have thought that he would transform into a red ponytail sorceress.
Although strictly speaking, this was nothing to be proud of.
"Hello, Miss Katie."
Hu Tao didn't seem to care about it. She nodded at Katie, then took out the letter of entrustment and read it again.
"You need to hire two or three mercenaries to escort a batch of goods to the City of Silver, right?"
"Yes …. I'll also …. go with them …."
"Then, can I ask what kind of goods it is? It won't be some contraband or something, right? "
"No, no, no!!!"
Hearing Hu Tao's question, Katie hurriedly shook her head.
"It's just some very ordinary specialties, and …. some valuable things, but they're all legal …."
"Okay, I understand. When can we leave?"
"Let's leave early tomorrow morning …."
Katie also sighed. Fangzheng saw a trace of haggardness on Katie's face.
It seemed that the Thief lady's recent situation wasn't too good.
