Chapter 48: Successive encounters

The Clay family to which McKinn belongs has incredible power in the underground world of South City.

In just one hour, most of the shops around Hotel Street and the gangsters on the street knew that the Clay family was looking for two young people.

At dusk the next day, news came back and it seemed that the person McKin was looking for appeared in a restaurant called Xiaoyaoju.

Xiaoyaoju is a relatively large restaurant on the hotel street. Those who can come here to eat are considered rich little businessmen. McGin, the shopkeeper of this restaurant, also happened to know him. In order to avoid disturbing the other party, the shopkeeper led McGin, and Arthur and others approached the restaurant from the back door.

"The person you are looking for is in the private room on the second floor, with three people in total. One of the thin young men seems to be one of the two people you are looking for." The young man from the restaurant took the initiative to come up to introduce the situation to McKin. It was the letter he had heard from the face that he was familiar with.

McGin grabbed a handful of gold coins from his pocket and stuffed them directly into the hands of the shopkeeper and the guy.

Arthur asked, "Do you have any private room next to them? Let's eat next to them."

The shopkeeper, who had obtained a surprise fortune, was filled with joy and immediately led McGinn, Arthur, Joan and Becky to the second floor. McGinn kept a few nimble subordinates to keep a close eye on the front and back doors.

There were indeed three people talking in the private room next to McKinn, but the voices were very light, and they were all talking insignificant things.

"Is it the person we are looking for?" Qiong asked in a low voice with an excited look on her face.

Arthur frowned, "I can't confirm, and there is a voice that sounds familiar to me. I want to verify it myself."

"What do you want to do?"

"Stop worrying, you can wait here with peace of mind." Arthur said and left the private room.

Arthur went downstairs to find the shopkeeper of the restaurant, and directly asked for a suitor's clothes to change into it, then took a plate of cold dishes from the kitchen and went straight to the private room on the second floor.

Arthur tapped the private room and pushed it in, "Guest, your food."

Arthur saw clearly the situation in the room with three people in the private room, a small black and thin young man sitting alone on one side, and two middle-aged people sitting opposite him. When Arthur saw one of them, his wrists trembled slightly, and the dishes served on his hands almost sprinkled.

The familiar voice Arthur heard before was the bearded Ranger.

In an instant, countless thoughts flashed through Arthur's mind: "How could he be here? Could it be that he did this?"

As soon as the two sides contacted their eyes, the bearded Ranger also recognized Arthur, but was a little stunned, but said, "Is the dish wrong? The dishes we ordered have already served."

Arthur grinned, "This dish is a special side dish for our Xiaoyaoju. It was given to several guests by the shopkeeper."

"There are such good things, so let it go." The black and thin young man made his statement first.

Arthur put the dishes on the table and then stepped out, helping the guests close the door and deliberately intersect with the bearded Ranger again.

Arthur gently wiped the sweat from his forehead. Thanks to the bearded golfer Jianghu's rich experience, he deliberately pretended not to know him.

"Man, let's have a pot of tea." Another familiar voice sounded behind Arthur, and Arthur was so scared that he was shocked.

The door of the private room next to it was pushed open, and a tall old man poked out half of his body.

Arthur slowly turned around, and the sweat that had just been wiped from his forehead faintly emerged. How could the royal magician Alman appear in this place?

After Arthur and others rushed out of the black fog, they met the great royal magician on the hunting platform. Fortunately, Arman didn't seem to remember Arthur.

At the critical moment, Arthur remained calm and smiled on his face, "What tea do you want? I'll give it to you."

"How could the dignified great magician appear in such a small place? Is it a coincidence?" The intense curiosity drove Arthur to bring tea from downstairs and pushed the door and walked into the private room of the great magician Alman next to him.

In addition to Alman, there is also an old man in coarse cloth clothes in the private room. The old man looks very strange.

Arthur had never seen this person before. When he put the teapot and teacup on the table, he glanced at random. Arthur knew that the old man was a powerful warrior. The power that was about to emerge from a powerful warrior's body and the energy in his eyes could not be concealed by a piece of coarse cloth clothes.

As soon as Arthur exited from the box, he was hit hard on his shoulder. Arthur almost subconsciously wanted to hit him back, but as soon as his arm was raised, Arthur, who realized that he was disguising himself, quickly put it down again.

"You kid is so down-and-out that you rely on a restaurant to work for others to make a living?" The bearded ranger's voice rang in time in his ears.

Arthur was delighted, and the bearded Ranger obviously understood the meaning of his gaze just now.

Arthur pulled the bearded Ranger to the corner of the first floor before he dared to speak, "Uncle Bearded, why are you here just now?"

"I told you last time that the three of us are now living in a friend's house nearby. He runs a small grocery store and privately receives some shameful things. The boy named Jay Ji happened to have something in his hand. I accompanied him to see the goods. The other party was very cautious and made an appointment to meet here."

Arthur's tense heart then relaxed a little. Although he had only seen bearded rangers before, he knew that these free and easy rangers would never lie on some irrelevant things.

"Why are you here? You are wearing such a dress?"

"The goods in Jaggie's hand were thrown by my friend, so I'll help get them back." Arthur said without any concealment.

The bearded gown couldn't help but smile and said, "It's such a coincidence! Since the owner has come to the door, we will definitely not do this business. I will go back and call my friends to leave immediately, and wait until we leave before the matter between you will be resolved."

"Don't hurry to leave with your friend, I want to ask the uncle to do something?"

"Tell me, I haven't paid back the favor you helped me to save last time?" The bearded Ranger agreed very happily.

"There are three people who robbed the goods this time, and two of them did not show up. In addition, I don't know where the goods were hidden? I hope the uncle will continue to play tricks with them, and we will follow this line to get the goods back."

"Well, you're still thoughtful. How do you hope I can help you?"

"Just just lend me a personal belonging for the time being, and don't care about the rest. Just pretend that I haven't seen me before."

Arthur knew that the people from the Light Church were also catching these people and did not dare to plant dark marks on the bearded ranger, so he planned to use Xiaoqing to continue tracking.

"This is easy." The bearded Ranger immediately untied the handguard on his wrist and handed it to Arthur, and then returned to the private room as if everything had happened.

At the same time, hundreds of Punishment Knights who had changed into casual clothes were quietly scattered around Hotel Street.
