Son of the Olden Days

Since entering the dark calendar, this continent has not been peaceful.

For Gray Screen Town, which is located on the border of the mainland, the past two years have been particularly turbulent.

Plague, famine, and monster night attacks.

Some people came, some died, and some fled in panic.

Fortunately, the disaster is over after all, and everything seems to be back to the past.

Recently, the monastery has had new troubles.

It's not a big deal, it's just a theft.

In fact, this incident has been happening intermittently since the restoration of order in Gray Screen Town after the early spring.

Every few days, the backyard kitchen of the monastery is always stolen from time to time, and the thief steals a cloth bag of food every time.

At first, this incident did not attract everyone's attention, because only a small part of the rations of orphans and handymen were stolen, which was not worth much. Talent will pick up the belly.

In response to this theft, almost everyone in the monastery who is qualified to make a sound has participated in relevant discussions.

Everyone agreed that it was not worth it to pay a lot of money to invite people outside to catch the thief. After all, the thief did not come every day, sometimes four or five days, sometimes seven or eight days, without any regularity.

The final result of the discussion faintly targeted the orphans and handymen at the bottom.

Immediately after a series of internal investigations and rectification of customs, the cunning thief was still not found.

The food supply of the monastery is strictly under the management of the nun elder Melissa, but now someone has challenged her authority and affected the order and stability of the monastery.

This made Melissa the eldest nun in an extremely irritable state for a long time. Unfortunately, no matter how she rolls and swears viciously, it is all meaningless, because there is no opponent.

Later, a lock was added to the door of the kitchen.

It is said to be made by a craftsman in a small town. The quality is excellent. It can prevent people, cats and dogs.

This made the nuns and deacons feel very relaxed for a few days.

But soon they couldn't laugh, because the lock was opened and it became a decoration, and the theft continued.

Speaking of unlocking, the eyes of the entire monastery inevitably gathered on someone who was only associated with the Thieves Guild.

Bathed in the enthusiastic monitoring gaze of everyone, Shuggs still looked cynical, with a big grin on the corner of his mouth, stepped boldly and swaggered across the market.

So this matter was so half-dead and dragged down, it has become an unsolved mystery of the monastery, to this day.

Soon after nightfall, a figure appeared outside Melissa's room.

At this moment, it is too early to fall asleep, coupled with the gradual warming of the weather, obese people have always had poor heat tolerance.

The eldest nun Melissa was slumped in a large soft chair like a pig, her fat hand kept fanning in the wind, and her sluggish eyes didn't know what she was thinking.

Perhaps to maintain ventilation, the door of the room is now in a state of concealment.

"Boom...boom...."

The visitor outside the door did not enter the room directly, but politely knocked on the door.

Hearing the sound, Melissa lifted her fat head and glanced through the half-open door, then an angry expression appeared on her face.

"Disgusting mouse, get away!"

With a friendly smile on his face, Shuggs squeezed into the room and leaned against the wall next to the old fireplace with his hands in his arms.

"Dear Sister, I am actually here to send a message."

There was a trace of doubt in Melissa's eyes, but she did not speak, but stared at Shuggs contemptuously, waiting for his next words.

"It's about the food theft in the monastery. I know who did it."

While talking, Shuggs held out a hand in the air at the right time, as if he was holding a heavy money bag there.

"...If the news is unreliable, let me see how I will clean up you when the time comes." Melissa sipped her head to the ground, raised her fat hand and pinched a few copper coins out of her purse, and then just tossed it. , Smashed on the low table in front of him.

Shuggs didn't care either. He stepped forward and swept the coins on the table into his hand, and carefully picked up the coins on the ground before he looked up at Melissa and said:

"It's Sol, Sol Drake."

"How can that kind of trash be so courageous..." Melissa and Shuggs looked at each other, the color of disbelief in their eyes was gradually deepening.

"The weaker the person is, the devil is often hidden in his heart."

Shuggs returned Melissa's meaningful smile and continued:

"Actually, this was just an accident. Just now, I was soaked in the backyard cemetery, and then happened to see Saul sneaking in the cemetery. Out of curiosity, I quietly approached him for a certain distance, and then found him. Eating."

"Of course, I don't guarantee the reliability of the news. I just saw it, guessed it, and then said, nothing more. Maybe he only ate the snacks he saved by himself..."

Melissa's eyes quickly turned twice.

"Squeak."

After getting down the poor chair and moaning in pain, Melissa's fat body finally left, ravaged the floor like a wild boar out of a cave, and ran away, faintly speaking further and further in the air.

"Little beast, I will make him regret living in this world..."

All the way into the cemetery, Melissa only glanced at Sol's sneaky back.

Perhaps feeling the heavy footsteps approaching behind him, Saul glanced back in horror, then quickly turned back and hid something in the bushes.

Then Saul quickly stood up and greeted Melissa tremblingly, as if trying to block the tall and fat figure in front of him.

"Ms. Melissa, oh no, grown-up nun, you... why are you here?"

"Snapped!"

Melissa raised her hand and slapped Sol directly to the ground with a heavy slap.

"Cunning little bastard, let me see what little secret you are hiding."

Rushing to the position where Sol just squatted, Melissa stretched out her fat feet to push the bushes to the side, revealing a box inside.

The box seems to be wooden and not delicate, but its square shape is very regular.

Following her curiosity, Melissa squatted down with some effort, picked up the box, and then lifted the lid of the box.

"Huh!" Melissa exclaimed quickly.

Through the immortal rest lamp on the old tree, you can clearly see the neatly stacked layers of sliced ​​fish in the box, and the golden yellow fish that has been fried and cooked is exuding a refreshing rich fragrance.

It is not a valuable item of actual value, but the fish in front of you can be called ‘advanced’ in the food category.

The fish in the uppermost edge area was missing seven or eight yuan, and it had obviously entered Thor's dog's belly.

Melissa gritted her teeth distressedly, then quickly reached out and twisted a few pieces of fragrant fish from the box and threw it into her mouth.
