Hunting College - #2138 - Vol 5 Chapter 260: snow
The next Sunday.
Sunday is light snow.
It is not only the light snow on the solar terms, but also the light snow in the actual sense.
When the sky was dawn, tiny snowflakes floated on the campus, like salt and sand, rustling, smearing a thick blue-gray color between the sky and the earth, but overnight, the world seemed to be a little colder again.
The black cat Xiaobu shuttled through the campus and shivered a few times involuntarily.
Yes, black cat.
After turning into a cat and going for a walk in the Wandering Bar last night, Zheng Qing thought that his next transformation would be a week later, but unexpectedly, just one night later, he received a message from the Wandering Bar – a little earlier, the Wandering Bar Received a piece of information related to those ‘ravens’.
This caused the young public student to have to cast Polymorph for the second time in a short period of time.
“Definitely the last time this week!”
The black cat’s heart was broken, and while worrying about whether the two transformations in succession would lead to the sequelae of transformation, he walked along the corner of the wall, alertly avoiding the unintentionally sliding eyes around him.
This behavior stems from both the feline’s instinct and the result of its active choice. After all, even at a wizarding university, if a black cat wearing a mask and a ring swaggers around in broad daylight, it’s still a bit too conspicuous.
Phew!
A large silver-white grass owl (xiao) passed silently over the head of the black cat, holding a fat toad in its claws that was still kicking its legs. A lot of heat that was originally not much was swept away.
The black cat hissed and shivered again.
“Damn magic.”
It cursed in a low voice, complaining that this art of distorting nature made two nocturnal animals meet in broad daylight, and regretting that he did not go out wearing the ‘lion’s mane’ and ‘fox tail’.
If you wear those two furry things, it will definitely warm up a lot. But from another point of view, it was somewhat unsafe to show those two gifts in front of a famous dark wizard.
With full of complaints, the black cat is familiar with the door and knows his way and walked into the stray along the gap last night. At the end of the gap, the multi-armed waiter was still waiting with a smile on his face, and the place to meet the wandering wizard was still the small private room on the second floor last night.
“The cat is a fascinating creature because it has a kind of lazy and alert indifference, no matter how anxious you are.”
This is the first sentence the wandering wizard said after seeing the black cat. He looked at the black cat that was shaking its fur, and added repeatedly: “This contradictory quality is fascinating.”
“Fucking fascination.”
The black cat cursed unceremoniously, raised his paws, and supported the small white mask on his face: “There is a reason for every member of the Seven Deadly Sins to wear a mask… If you can’t keep a low profile and secret, So what does this mask mean to us?”
Although for a cat, the meaning of a mask is really not much.
The stray wizard—this time it was the body of the stray wizard who appeared in front of the black cat—smiled and pushed a glass of goat milk in front of the black cat, nodding in agreement: “Agree…let a masked cat be in daylight. Come and wander, it is not low-key enough. But the information we received has a certain timeliness, the ‘hunter’ who placed the order said that if the task payment is not received within six hours, the transaction will be cancelled, so…”
The black cat who was licking the goat’s milk in the cup raised his head, the corners of his mouth were stained with white milk, and his tone was a little confused: “How else can you do this? Why?”
“Many possibilities.”
The wandering wizard was adding ice cubes to his gin, and shrugged his shoulders when he heard this, and briefly analyzed: “For example, the hunter is leaving Phuket Island this morning, or he needs to buy something that is exactly three jade coins short; Another example is that he has signed some silence contracts, and he will not be able to disclose relevant information after six hours… Of course, it cannot be ruled out that in another six hours, the news will appear on the news page of the “Beta Town Post”. Just trying to make a quick buck… In short, every unreasonable thing in the world has a very reasonable explanation… All you can do now is take a gamble.”
The black cat tugged at his ears and licked the corners of his mouth in annoyance.
Indeed, this is a gamble.
Or he bet that the hunter only had a six-hour trading window for some other reason, or he could bet that this piece of information would make it to the Betatown Post – pick the former and he would only lose three jade coins; but pick the latter , he not only had to risk the possibility of losing this clue, but also risked the risk of sequelae in vain to come and wander in the daytime.
The marginal cost can be said to be very high.
The wandering wizard didn’t urge him, he just took a small silver spoon and patiently stirred the ice cubes in the glass, but he didn’t know the meaning of stirring an ice cube.
The black cat stepped on the soft sofa and walked back and forth twice, looking up at the bar owner: “You just said three jade coins, which means that this information only charges the minimum remuneration, without any additional remuneration?”
“After all, you have to take a lot of risk to buy this news.” The wandering wizard nodded slightly.
“I bought it!”
The black cat raised its paw and waved it decisively – during this period of time, the income was a lot, but the expenditure was not much. The biggest disadvantage of making fast money is that it will not feel distressed when it is spent~www.readwn.com~ But three jade coins Thirty golden beans, just a little dividend from D&K, or Dr. Xiao’s payment for writing a few homework. This feeling of occupying the fruits of other people’s labor puts the cat in a somewhat subtle mood.
The wandering wizard put down the wine glass, took out a small parchment roll from under the bar, showed the black cat that the seal of the roll was intact, and then unlocked the seal with a spell.
The black cat counted out three jade coins and a golden bean, and lined them up on the bar.
Jade coins are the reward for intelligence, while golden beans are the commission for wandering wizards.
The content of the intelligence is very simple – on the afternoon of November 17th, the First University Teaching Assistants raided an illegal laboratory deep in the silent forest and seized a large number of illegal experimental subjects. Numbered crow mask.
On the parchment roll are not only clear photos of the masks, but also several photos related to the experimental subjects.
The black cat looked at the photos and confirmed at a glance that it was indeed the target he was looking for.
“November 17th, which is this Tuesday, the day of the Winter Clothes Festival.”
The black cat was talking, and ‘lion’s mane’ and ‘foxtail’ flashed in his mind again, he couldn’t help shaking his head, and regained his energy: “That is to say, those guys are still active these days? Where’s the location? Why is there no specific location in the intelligence!”
“The relevant specific information must have been silenced by the teaching assistants. I personally think it is quite successful to be able to obtain such a non-ambiguous piece of information.” The wandering wizard tapped the wall of the glass with a silver spoon, looking very satisfied.
