Chapter 387: Active II

h2> Dean didn't make any changes. He picked up the knife and fork and focused on the food in front of him, as if no one was around.

After a full two or three minutes, the waitress put away her seductive posture in embarrassment, and with a trace of anger, she was about to turn around and leave.

"etc!"

Dean spoke suddenly.

"What's the matter with you, sir?"

The waitress immediately turned around happily.

"Help me replace it with ordinary soup!"

Dean pointed to the mug of ale.

"Yes, sir!"

The waitress replied in a disappointed voice.

"Thank you for your service!"

Dean threw out a silver horn again, and it landed in the hand of the waitress.

"Your generosity is truly appreciated!"

The waitress happily put away the silver corner, and then walked quickly to the kitchen. After a while, a sufficient amount of soup was brought to Dean.

Putting down the soup bowl, the waitress didn't pester him again, and after nodding to Dean, she walked away quickly.

However, that silver horn obviously brought extraordinary effects. Apart from that waitress, more waitresses began to dangle in front of Dean.

At least the table next to Dean had been wiped down for the fifth time since Dean sat down.

However, no one came to Dean directly.

Rules exist there.

And here, of course, is no exception - if they don't want to be dismissed, then they must never disturb the guests when they are eating.

Dean concentrated on eating his dinner.

The waitresses shuttled by his side without giving up.

Until the arrival of the Grand Duke Swordsman.

If these waitresses were beautiful enough compared to ordinary girls, then compared to the Grand Duke's swordsman, these supposedly beautiful girls became ordinary and inconspicuous.

Just look at the amazing eyes of other guests in the tavern.

However, the next moment, some locals immediately lowered their heads and kept their eyes fixed.

Then, when the Archduke Swordsman walked in front of Dean, the guests in the tavern who were reminded also became more orderly.

"Fame spreads far and wide!"

Dean said jokingly.

"Some things are always inevitable, and then there will be some changes!" The Grand Duke Swordsman replied, and then cut to the point: "Seeing that you are in a good mood, do you have any more discoveries?"

"It can't be considered a discovery! It can only be called a fairly smooth beginning..."

Dean lowered his voice and briefly described what happened before.

"Are you trying to lure those guys out? Do you need my help?"

The Archduke Swordsman understood Dean's meaning when Dean's words fell.

"Of course! You know, the party you represent is definitely the one who most wants to know the truth about the Pirate Alliance!" Dean shrugged with a smile and continued to ask, "What do you gain?"

"There is no more information from my aunt—before I went to search there, the place was already empty, except for two or three kittens, there was nothing to gain at all! And about the Seymour joint family..."

Speaking of this, the Archduke Sword Master unconsciously glanced at Dean.

"Let's talk, it's true that I have 'Zelgaon' in my surname, but it doesn't mean how close I am to them—you should understand when you see the 'ancestral house'!"

Dean obviously knew what the Grand Duke's swordsman was worried about.

"According to my investigation, the families and chambers of commerce that the Seymour United family has been trying to win over and accept since ten years ago, once they refuse, they will have no good end - most of them are either broken or bankrupt.

And in recent years, they have encountered shipwrecks and pirates again and again! "

The Grand Duke Swordsman said solemnly, and even Dean clearly felt a killing intent.

Some things are always like this. It seems that there is nothing at ordinary times, or even not noticeable at all, but when some things connect them together, it is absolutely so conspicuous and shocking!

The archduke swordsman who grew up in Nangang is very familiar with some shipwrecks and pirates.

Familiar to the point of being like a treasure.

After all, Southport hosts a funeral every time it happens.

And as one of the heirs of the Deta family, the chief swordsman of Grand Duke Emerald, she is the main staff every time. She has seen those who lost their husbands, sons, and fathers mourn and cry.

Each time, it made her feel sad.

Every time, she couldn't bear to look directly at it.

And every time, it was so powerless.

After all, the power of the sea and the pirates hidden in it are unavoidable for Nangang County. As long as there is sea transportation, it cannot be eliminated for a day.

Before, at every funeral, the Grand Duke's swordsman always used such excuses and reasons to comfort himself.

Therefore, when she discovered another scene, the anger in her heart can be imagined.

"Tsk, the blindness of greed has driven them crazy!"

Dean sneered, and then said directly: "We split into two groups. I will stay in the 'Seagull Hotel' to attract attention, and you instructor, please continue to investigate the matter about the Seymour United Family!"

"Leave it to me! Be careful yourself!"

The archduke swordsman nodded, and at the same time, told Dean.

"Ok!"

Dean smiled slightly.

Afterwards, the Archduke Swordsman sat aside and watched Dean finish his dinner; then, the two got up and left the 'Extinguished Wind Tavern' together, heading towards Emerald Castle.

However, when leaving Southport, Dean returned to the wharf area of ​​Southport again under the cover of the Archduke Swordsman.

A wide, thick cloak with a hood large enough to hide the face.

Dean walked into the 'Seagull Hotel' slowly——

This is a moderately medium-sized hotel, and its customers are only ordinary businessmen or civilians.

Therefore, in medium-sized buildings, most of them are one-by-one shops.

"Give me a private room!"

Dean said to the innkeeper behind the bar.

"Your choice is not wrong. The single room in my hotel is definitely the best in the entire dock area. It allows you to overlook the entire dock area. The morning sun for breakfast will shine into your room as soon as possible. , imagine this scene - you are basking in the sun, listening to the sound of the waves of the sea... and it only takes three silver horns a day!"

Amidst the continuous compliments, the boss smiled and quoted a price.

The price is fair, and it doesn't mean to rip off customers.

So, Dean paid directly.

Then, under the guidance of the enthusiastic boss, Dean walked into his room—although the hotel owner was exaggerating about his hotel room.

However, it is located on the third floor of the hotel, and with the big windows, it does allow Dean to see most of the dock area, and the sunlight will naturally shine in here.

Of course, the sound of the waves of the sea cannot be heard at all.

"Ok!"

The innkeeper, who had been staring at Dean nervously, worried that Dean would repent, immediately showed a smile after seeing Dean nod, and walked quickly to the door of the room——

"I provide dinner here, do you want it? Only five coppers!"

inquired the innkeeper.

"No need, I just want to have a good rest now!"

Dean waved his hand in refusal.

Although no more business was made, the innkeeper still smiled and closed the door.

Hearing the sound of footsteps going away, the door was gently opened, and a 'D' was carved on the bottom of the door frame with a dagger in an inconspicuous position.

After that, Dean quietly closed the door.

That position, for ordinary people, unless the distance is extremely close, and the line of sight happens to pass by.

Otherwise, it's hard to see at all.

However, for some special groups of people, it is the first place to pay attention to.

...

The night is getting deeper and deeper.

The busy and noisy Nangang Wharf area also fell into silence in the dark night.

Except for some hotels, all the shops have already closed—the signboards have been put away, the gates have been locked tightly, and there are no people except for the people who are on duty at night.

However, for the owner of the 'Seagull Hotel', today is a very good day.

After nightfall, several groups of guests came.

It's not the kind of guests who can only find enough food and clothing to stay in Datongpu, but the guests who need a single room.

Although each of them seemed a bit hidden, but the Kimpton they brought was real, and this was enough to make him stop thinking about anything.

After asking the staff to hang up the full sign, the 'Seagull Hotel' closed the door.

Except for one clerk who was on duty at night, the rest of the people all returned to the room.

After about ten minutes, the whole hotel was silent.

The only movement was the snoring from the bed.

And this kind of snoring completely covered up some subtle sounds.

After a short rest, Dean waited energetically.

Through some subtle movements, Dean even outlined the situation in front of the door and in the corridor in his mind——

A figure guarded against each other and quickly searched for the mark he left.

The sound of piercing the air from time to time is the movement left by the dagger cutting through the air.

However, these people showed restraint before they found their target.

No real fights.

Dean turned on the candlestick at hand, walked to the door, and pulled out the latch; then, leaning on the chair in the room, he quietly waited for the first person to enter his room.
