Chapter 1292 Being Beaten
Today is the last game of the top ten matches of the Zephyr Championship.
There was a sea of people outside the arena, the auditorium was packed with people, and even the high platform around the auditorium was full of people.
Almost half of the people in Balaam City gathered there.
I specially gave the store employees a day off to go to the game.
He stayed in the store and packed his things.
Anna, the new deputy store manager, wanted to accompany me quietly to clean up the store, but I sent her away.
Because if she stays here, it will be very troublesome.
Although she is smart and intelligent, she would still be at a loss when facing the store manager being beaten.
In fact, since the morning, when I came to the store, I had noticed someone following me, and there was more than one person. At the same time, I also noticed that these people had extraordinary auras, and they were definitely not ordinary people. In other words, they were thugs sent by the fat boss. .
Now that the thugs are here, it means that there is no way to escape this beating.
Sure enough, after I left the store, I wandered on the street as usual. When I reached a closed area, I was suddenly put in a sack and pulled to a corner, and then I was beaten randomly.
To be honest, this random beating was not that good. It was not even as painful as a stick from the Goblin Warrior, but I still screamed heart-breakingly and unbearably.
As the beating continued, my shouting gradually stopped, and finally, all that was left was humming.
By the way, my acting skills should be pretty good. The only drawback is that there is no bleeding.
It won’t work without seeing blood.
So, I aimed at the bridge of my nose, secretly used force, and punched myself.
The bridge of my nose and eye sockets instantly felt sore, but I knew that this strength was still not enough, so I gritted my teeth and punched myself again.
As a result, the blow was so severe that he burst into tears. The heat flowed down his nose, staining his face, neck, and collar red along the way.
When there was no movement around, I stood up slowly, struggled to drop the sack, got up from the ground with a bloodied face, glanced around in horror, and then walked timidly against the wall.
As soon as I walked out of the corner, I met the fat boss.
He was startled at first, then looked surprised. He took two steps forward and asked with concern: "Brother, what's wrong with you?"
"I don't know, brother," I cried, as if to vent my grievances: "I don't know why, but I was put in a sack as soon as I left the store, and then I was beaten severely. Look at how hard I was beaten, woo woo woo. , I usually never get into trouble, why would I get into this!"
"Brother, did you see clearly who hit you?" The fat boss turned his head and said righteously: "Tell me who it is, and I will help you get justice!"
"I didn't see clearly," I continued to cry, "I'm covered in a sack, where can I see clearly?"
While pretending to cry, he glanced at the fat boss with his peripheral vision and found a smile on his lips. Ha, this guy is quite proud.
"Let's do this, brother. I have some connections, so I'll do you a favor. You give me some money, and I'll find someone to help you check and see if I can find those bastards who beat you!"
"How much does it cost?" I pretended to be embarrassed and asked with an angry expression.
"Well, only two gold coins," the fat boss Lion said loudly, "Look, this is not a lot of money!"
Not much peat!
Two gold coins, that's two hundred silver coins, and twenty thousand copper coins!
In terms of food, an ordinary meal costs almost twenty copper coins, which is equivalent to the price of a thousand ordinary meals!
I scolded this guy in his heart for being so thick-skinned, but he still said politely: "Brother, isn't this a bit much?"
"Not much!" The fat boss said: "Not much at all, and besides, I don't have to handle this matter directly. I have to beg our boss. Only when our boss agrees can I send someone to help. Think about it. , who is our boss? He is the most powerful person in the organization. I am afraid he may not be able to appreciate two gold coins. Maybe I will have to help add more money, but well, you and I are brothers. , forget about the extra money.”
Why are you pretending to me? I already know that you are the boss of the loan organization, I just don’t want to expose you!
Finally, the gold coins were paid to him.
I went back to the jewelry store miserably alone and closed the door.
I took off my clothes, found a towel, wiped off the blood on my body, washed the dust on my body, put a new bandage on my left arm, then changed into a new set of clothes, and threw the changed clothes into Burn it in the brazier, then quietly leave through the back door.
When I came to the basement, I asked Boss Renne: "How is it? Is my play good?"
"Very good," Boss Ren said, "It's just that the punch you gave yourself was a bit too hard."
"Don't we have to pretend to be as similar as possible?" I asked.
"I'm trying to pretend to be as thoughtful as possible, but I'm not asking you to harm yourself," Boss Ren said, "It can make your nose bleed. This punch of yours can probably kill an adventurer of around level 4 in an instant."
"There's nothing we can do about it," I said, "Fortunately, they were just beating me up. If they had stabbed me with a sharp weapon, they would have killed me."
"Yes," Boss Ren said: "Not only is your healing power extremely strong, but the flesh of an eighth-level adventurer is also extremely dense. There is no problem with ordinary blows. Once you use a sharp weapon to pierce it, it will pierce the gang. However, This also illustrates a problem.”
"What's the problem?" I asked.
"The boss of the lending organization already regards you as an ordinary person."
After hearing this, I smiled slightly: "That's good, my plan can finally be put into action."
My plan is very simple. First, I want him to treat me as an ordinary person. Then, I will try to get him to invite me to the lending organization for a visit. Then, that is the key to my plan.
He will definitely send someone to follow me.
I believe that the person who can be sent to follow me must be no ordinary guy. After all, the jewelry store is a big piece of meat, and he will definitely not let other bosses of the lending organization get a piece of the pie.
Therefore, these people sent to follow me must know most of the secrets of the lending organization.
As long as these people are captured and tortured, a lot of the information I want will be forced out.
If I can master this information, my next plan will become smoother.
Thinking of this, I vaguely felt that the beating I received today was well worth it.
After the Zephyr Hegemony Tournament, there will be a week's rest to allow the five teams that are about to enter a more rigorous battle to recharge their energy and prepare for the five-to-three match.
At first, I planned to accompany Phoenix and the others to appreciate the surroundings of Dashai City during this break. Unexpectedly, I suddenly encountered a smear incident. I had no choice but to hand over the task to Mr. Taylor and ask him to help take care of Phoenix and the others.
Mr. Taylor nodded in agreement. Although he answered simply, he also looked unhappy.
In fact, I know that because of my incident, his old man's plan has also been disrupted. According to the initial plan, his old man planned to taste all the fine wines in Dasai City in the past few days to try the feeling of being enchanted by wine.
