Mystery: Mr. Witch and Miss Hunter

Chapter 144 Harpoon
The three of them followed the snake head down the hillside, bypassing the sailor's family area where the whale meat was dried from the upwind direction, and arrived at the port.

"Look, that's the Harpoon I was talking about."

The snakehead pointed to a small wooden building in the port.A heavy-looking harpoon with one tooth broken hangs from the door of the shop, which is very conspicuous among the same buildings.

"Sailors like to go to this kind of place, so be careful when you take children to eat."

The snakehead rubbed his hands awkwardly, "I'll talk to Captain Basque first, you can go to the tavern first... I feel that the weather today is colder than yesterday."

"Come on, let's go and see."

Adele took the suitcase from the smuggler's hand and curtsied politely to him.

"You're quite comfortable with the role."

Venata couldn't help laughing at Adele's appearance.

"Can you keep your mouth shut? If I lose control because of embarrassment, I will be the first to kill you."

Adele gave her a white look.

"Okay, okay, let's get down to business."

Seeing Adele's appearance, Venata resolutely shut up and changed the subject as if her bad taste had been satisfied.

"Have you thought about the reason why we went to Feysac? This kind of captain must have a military background, especially in a place like Conston City that used to have a large-scale garrison. A captain without a backer may not even be able to keep his own ship. .”

"Don't worry, Gagaran has already prepared a new identity for us."

Adele produced two identification documents from her robe pocket. "Originally, when I left Backlund, I wanted to familiarize you with this thing in advance to deal with the possible investigation of going out of the city, but I didn't expect Gagaran to use his extraordinary ability to send us out directly to Conston City. My train ticket is also a black ticket that can be bought without an ID, so I didn’t remember it until now.”

"I think you should really use that bracelet less... At least for now, its impact on your memory is real."

Venata cast a reproachful glance at Adele, then took her identity certificate and studied it carefully.

"By the way, this time I am a single mother who brought her children back to Feysac's hometown to visit relatives, and you are the bodyguard and nanny I hired for five pounds. Considering the price described in your employment contract, please Act more rookie."

Adele took out a bunch of documents that Gagaran had prepared for her and looked through them.

"Why are you emphasizing price and capability? I suspect you are doing it on purpose."

Venata reached out her hand in dissatisfaction and wanted to pinch Adele's waist.

"Pay attention to your identity, you are my bodyguard and Sophie's nanny now, don't be so rude," Adele deliberately put on a straight face, and reached out to push Venata's hand away, "Now help the employer to carry the luggage, I'm going to take Sophie to the restaurant for dinner."

"Tch, a bad man who uses children as a shield... No, a bad woman."

Venata smacked her lips, but still took the package that Adele handed over.But she quickly noticed one thing, and asked Adele:
"What about Sophie? Does she have a false identity?"

"The problem is the two of us, what kind of fake identity did you give her?" Adele replied in a low voice, "She's not even old enough to apply for an identity certificate, even if you give her a fake identity and let her act, it's possible Something went wrong. Let her be."

After finishing speaking, Adele knelt down, helped Sophie straighten the scarf, and at the same time said to Sophie: "When the captain asks you later, you can answer truthfully. Except in front of the captain, remember Except for calling me mother, other names can be used as usual, you can also call me sister Venata, do you understand?"

Sophie nodded, but seemed a little uncomfortable with Altaïr turning into a woman.

"Seriously, why didn't Gagaran let me play the mother? You see, little Sophie is a little uncomfortable."

Venata complained from the side.

"Take it as the sect's privilege." Adele stood up, took Sophie's hand and walked towards the restaurant, "Besides, it's as if you will play the widow of a wealthy businessman with an annual income of more than 300 pounds."

"Although I can understand that you are mocking me for not seeing the world, where did you take pride in being good at playing the widow as a man a week ago?"

Venata picked up the suitcase and followed behind Adele.

"Shut up, talk nonsense and you won't have the fried whale meat later."

"Good good..."

The two walked into the Harpoon restaurant while bickering in a low voice that only the other could hear.

This is a very typical restaurant for sailors, and the decoration style is very close to the style that fishermen like.

The restaurant is divided into three floors. The middle of the second floor is completely hollowed out. Except for a circle of seats near the window, there is a huge whale skull built on the wall of the second floor.The cavity at the bottom of the skull was blocked by the owner, tables and chairs were placed in the middle, and a small private room was taken out.

Looking at the whalebone on the wall, even though Adele has never seen a whale before, she can imagine how huge it was in life.Along the way, there are occasionally a few whale bones placed in the yards of fishermen on both sides, but none of them are as huge as the whale bone in the Harpoon restaurant.

It was at least three meters high and more than 20 meters long... I really don't know how those whalers caught it by relying on pneumatic shovels.

Adele was in a daze, and a waiter was already greeting her.

"Watching Leviathan, ma'am?"

A waiter in white attire with a blue handkerchief around his head came over to say hello.

"Leviathan?"

Adele was appropriately surprised.

"It's the name of the whale. It's based on the monster in the doctrine of the Lord of Storms... You know, most of the fishermen by the sea believe in the 'Lord of Storms', even Feysac, who does not allow other religions to exist, or even Intis, there are also many fishermen who secretly believe in this great existence."

"His miracles are indeed shocking." Adele casually brought up the topic of belief. After all, the beliefs they involved were too complicated, especially for her who secretly believed in an ancient god.

If Sophie, a devout believer in the storm, finds out, I'm afraid my status in her heart will drop...

Adele thought guiltily.

"Uncle, how did you catch such a big whale?"

Sophie asked the waiter curiously.Her innocent demeanor and her lovely face make it difficult for people to refuse her request, or even ignore her dark green hair and ruby ​​​​eyes that have been turned into dark green by the fall of the devil.

"Ah, we didn't actually catch this whale, it beached itself a few decades ago. Seems to push another, smaller whale back. I was young at the time, so I don't know much about it. learn."

The waiter was a little emotional, "Perhaps in its heart, this matter has more important meaning."
