“If you don’t want to suffer, then honestly give us back our stuff.”

Lin Tianyin looked at the shivering beret brat and his monkey in front of her with an expressionless face, and she tried to make her voice sound menacing.

Gagaf, who had been thrown out as a cannonball, staggered up from the ground and looked as if he was fine. By now the beret brat had dropped his nose in fear, and the monkey was pissing all over the floor. This time they did not play tricks, hugging into a shivering ball and apologizing, “Sorry! I’ll never dare do it again!”

Lin Tianyin thought she had really misread the world. Looking at the face of the ‘world cheated me’ expression of Milona, Lin Tianyin originally thought that her aura of holy mother will be useful, but the result is she still have to rely on force to solve the problem……

“Today I grabbed two packages, I do not know which one is yours …… you find it yourselves.”

The beret brat is honestly down reluctantly grumping, and led the three to the door of a dilapidated house. The people who followed the kid into the house found that it was empty.

So he was an orphan ah …… but Lin Tianyin suddenly noticed that on the gray wall of the small space in the house, hung a photo of the kid and a girl together. The girl is quite a bit older than the brat, and the two look quite intimate.

“Is that your sister?” Gagaf asked casually. The beret brat nodded and hmmed, showing a somewhat lost expression.

The little ghost led the three into the kitchen, then opened the entrance to the basement from under the table and waved to Lin Tianyin and the others, “Come with me, let’s say first that you are only allowed to take back your things oh.”

“What does this mean?” Milona was a bit puzzled.

However, after following the kid into the basement, they finally understand what the kid’s words mean – this basement is clearly a warehouse forue srilen goods, filled with a variety of backpacks, luggage, boxes …… more than 20!

Seeing this scene in front of them, even the consistent holy mother Milona is dumbfounded, staring speechlessly at those stolen goods and said: “Why did you steal so many …… No, this is bad behavior, do not steal other people’s things again understand?”

“Stop nagging! I need money!”

The beret kid glared at Milona, impatiently waved his hand: “Really, it’s my bad luck to meet you guys, find your things and take them away.”

“How can this ……” Milona looked hurt, followed by the monkey next to the brat raised his arm and ‘squeak’ twice, showing the same impatience as the master. Lin Tianyin actually understood what was going on in her heart, she crossed her arms and looked at the little kid with a bad temper, rolling her eyes and asking, “Are you stealing so many things for your sister?”

“…………”

The beret brat was silent for a moment, then nodded reluctantly and said, “It’s none of your business.”

“If there’s any trouble, you can talk to us about it.” Noticing that the brat’s attitude changed a bit, Milona then bent down and stared at the kid in a concerned manner and said, “Maybe we can help with something too.”

Seeing Milona’s holy mother spirit glowing again, Lin Tianyin really felt a little annoyed. She saw the little kid freeze for a moment, a hint of hesitation appeared in his eyes, but soon shook his head in mock impatience and said, “You can’t help! Mind your own business!”

“Don’t look at us like this, we also embarked on a journey to defeat the demon lord.” Milona has a really God tenper, tender and not angry, still smiling at the kid, “If you won’t say it for us to hear, how do others know if they can help?”

Don’t be nosy! Lin Tianyin was secretly screaming in her heart at this moment. It was her fault for asking a question. In fact, she could more or less guess what happened to the kid, but it was none of her business. As long as she got her luggage back, who cares who he stole from again. And even if you help the brat there will be no benefit ……

“What? Demon lord?” Hearing this, the kid suddenly showed a ‘you are a fool ah’ expression, looked disdainfully at Milona: “You think I am a three-year-old child? The demon lord is only a myth, no one alive in the world has ever seen the devil king, okay?”

“It’s true, the demon lord was resurrected when the last red moon appeared.” Milona looked a little anxious and couldn’t help but explain, “We came from the Nameless Village over the mountain, and the demon lord resurrected and sent the red dragon to attack our village. That’s why we embarked on the journey!”

“That’s right.” Gagaf on the side nodded and pointed to Lin Tianyin and introduced, “Shanoa is our brave one, she is the one who defeated the dragon.”

“…………” This remark made the beret brat quiet, and he instantly changed his gaze and began to look at Lin Tianyin, then frowned and asked. “…… Is what they said true? You defeated the dragon?”

It looks like trouble can’t be avoided. These two pigmies both seem to want to be nosy good guys. But Lin Tianyin is not this kind of person, she glared at the brat who was taunting her just now and nodded with a sigh, “Yes, our village’s carrier pigeon has already flown to the King’s city, and within a few days the King’s palace knights will come to transport the dragon.”

“So ……” the beret brat bowed his head and hesitated, then snapped his head up and took Lin Tianyin’s arm and pleaded, “Please! Save my sister!”

Lin Tianyin looked away, expressionlessly and quickly refused, “Don’t dream, that’s impossible.”

Milona was shocked, looked at her sister and said in a tone of pity for everyone in this world, “Shanoa, he’s still a child.”

Lin Tianyin rightfully asked rhetorically, “This child had taken our most important things and only property before. If we don’t catch him, the person who is sympathized with should be us, right?”

“…………”

Even Milona can’t deny that Lin Tianyin has a point, she can still remember the experience of the kid cheating them just now. If she hadn’t caught this brat, she might have to be forced by her sister to ask for food in a restaurant.

But in the end, Lin Tianyin is not hard-hearted, she just became a little bad-tempered after so many unlucky encounters. So she decided to listen to the brat’s story first before saying, “Although I don’t really want to know, but what exactly is your sister’s situation?”

…………

This is basically the traditional plot of a bad RPG game. Three people sat down, Lin Tianyin still threatened the beret brat, and then everyone listened to him talk about himself.

The brat was called Ah Fu, and his parents died of illness when he was five years old, leaving him and an older sister to live with. The monkey was found in the mountains. However, two months ago his sister was snatched away by the town’s bully, Squire Drew. He learned that a year ago when he was sick, his sister borrowed money from the Drew family’s money changer for him. Originally there was not much money, but the interest turned out to be a very terrible figure that could not be repaid in any case. Therefore, the sister was taken as a compensation by Master Drew’s men, and threatened mocking him, “If you want your sister back, take the money and interest to redeem her.”

“So that’s …… why you steal other people’s luggage?” Milona looked at Alfred sympathetically and clenched her fist in anger, “Extortion is clearly illegal, why don’t you ask the local barons or knights for help?”

“It’s useless, Master Drew is close to the Earl of Marishan in the King’s City …… I had considered that with a little more money, I could get my sister back ……”

“But you’re stealing other people’s money.” Lin Tianyin frowned and said, thinking what is Marishan! Is that count also cone face?!

“I’m sorry …… but I can’t help it!”

Ah Fu’s anxiously red face wanted to argue something, Lin Tianyin shook his head to stop him.

“Although I am very sympathetic to you, but we are afraid we can not help you.” Lin Tianyin looked at the brat and said, “Anyway, helping you to rob that landlord’s house is abosloutely a thing we cannot do. It is too dangerous and there is no benefit.”

This episode in the original did not happen at all, since the villagers and the formation of a strange adventure team after the plot completely deviated from the original, this time if the team is the prince then it is good to do. The prince can directly let the Squire hand over the robbed girl, while they are only a group of adventurers with unknown origins. They can’t just break into people’s home and mess around.

But the reason Lin Tianyin said so, mainly she really can’t bear to tell this beret brat called Ah Fu. Two months had already passed, so might as well let her sister stay at the Drew’s and become a concubine or something. Then she can have better days ahead……

“This ……” the brat called Ah Fu hesitated for a moment, then suddenly raised the monkey beside him: “If you can save my sister, I will give you Pippi!”

“…… No one wants that kind of thing, okay!” The monkey shivered in fear. Lin Tianyin could not help but draw the corners of her mouth, and spit out.

“You’ll need Pippi, it’s good at stealing things.” Ah Fu seemed to be serious, and Milona immediately waved her hands in fear: “We don’t steal things.”

Maybe they should also to steal? At this point Lin Tianyin has begun to waver. If they have a long journey, they need expenses and the 500 raised by the villagers were simply not enough. But for a monkey to do so much trouble seems to be a bit more than worth it ……

“It’s also useful not to steal things.” Ah fu scratched the monkey’s back and continued to sell: “This guy’s nose is very spiritual. It often can find things to eat in the wild. Your journey is long then it is best to take it with you.”

…… can find something to eat.

This statement seems to be full of temptation, Lin Tianyin can not help but start to remeasure the gains and losses. Seeing the little kid and monkey together with a pitiful look at themselves, Lin Tianyin suddenly had a flash of light and a good idea in her head.

“I have a better plan that will allow you to come up with all the money for the loan shark at once.”

“What’s the plan? Could it be gambling? That won’t work either.”

“No, we can get the monkey to steal a super ingrate.”

Lin Tianyin stroked her chin and the corners of her mouth grinned in an evil arc.

According to her understanding of the original plot, that bastard prince seemed to be about to pass through this town to head to Nameless Village. Lin Tianyin didn’t have a good feeling about that prince, this was a good opportunity to steal away his money bag and make him unlucky.
