Early the next morning, the bright sunshine replaced yesterday's drizzle, and Wei Ran got up early after not sleeping well all night.
As the door opened, the first thing he saw was a little girl who looked to be sixteen or seventeen years old at most, with freckles on her face. She was carrying a fishing rod and holding a fish in her hand. He was carrying a small tin bucket and was ready to go out.
"Are you awake?"
In the living room, Frank first greeted Wei Ran, and then said to the freckle-faced girl, "Karen, before you leave, Help bring Victor’s breakfast.”
The freckled girl named Karen rolled her eyes helplessly, put down the iron bucket and fishing rod in her hands, and got into the kitchen to serve Wei Ran. A piece of bread and a piece of ham came, and then a boiled egg and a glass of milk were placed on the table.
"Can I go out now?" Karen asked with her hands on her hips.
"Stay away from those warships" Frank reminded with a smile.
"I know, I know." Before Karen could finish her words, she had picked up the fishing rod and tin bucket again and ran out of the door.
"My sister"
Frank explained with a smile. When the door closed, he lowered his voice and said, "After breakfast, go back to the tavern. If you are questioned about your behavior yesterday, I was late, so I asked him to come over to help repair the leaky roof and have a few drinks."
"Have you disposed of the body?" Wei Ran sat down and asked while peeling the eggs. road.
"It's taken care of, don't worry."
Frank picked up the milk and touched it with the fire, "I remember that the roof on the dark side of the attic is leaking. We are repairing the roof. I had a drink there afterwards, using the liqueur you stole from the tavern." "Is someone already waiting for me in the tavern?" Wei Ran said cautiously after eating an egg in two mouthfuls. asked.
Frank smiled gently, "It shouldn't be that fast, but you have to be prepared in advance."
"That makes sense"
Wei Ran said something absent-mindedly, finished his share of breakfast in three or two mouths, then changed into clothes that had been dried by the fireplace, said goodbye to Frank, who was also preparing to go to the post office, and walked alone on the muddy road for a while. Walking slowly towards the Siren Tavern.
It was not until this time that he truly saw the difference between this tavern and later generations. The most conspicuous thing is that there is no big and scary anchor. At the same time, there is an extra barrel-shaped mailbox. Moreover, these two mailboxes are placed on both sides of the door. On its upper waist, there are also words for receiving and sending letters written in German.
"Victor, you are late today." Artur breathed a sigh of relief the moment Wei Ran walked in.
"The box from last night..."
"Brought it back," Artur responded in a low voice, "Is he dead?"
Wei Ran nodded incomprehensibly, "Isn't anyone here to ask?"
"It won't be so soon."
Artur responded worriedly. He didn't seem to be much happy about the death of the chain dog Adam. "Thanks to you showing up in time last night, otherwise I would have been killed by now." They caught him."
"Did they find you?" Wei Ran tensed up secretly.
"It should have been discovered." Artur nodded with lingering fear, "Where is Adam's follower?"
"Killed," Wei Ran replied in a low voice, "The body. Frank helped take care of it."
"That's good." Artur nodded, "I'll leave the tavern to you. I'll go out first."
Wei Ran was sensible and didn't ask any more questions. He got into the bar and continued to slowly wipe the glasses that seemed to be endless. At the same time, he secretly wondered what skills he could learn.
As time passed by, the sun outside the window also rose to its highest point, and the hungover guests upstairs also staggered downstairs shortly after Artur returned. Groups of five sat around the table, enjoying the lunch served by the mute old man.
"Artur, where is the wine promised to us last night?" A submariner shouted dissatisfied, "You don't think we forgot, do you?"
"Indeed There is such a thing."
A follower in a pilot uniform said, "I remember Artur said that he would provide us with as much red wine as an oak barrel."
" That's right!"
The submariner slapped the table and reminded, "I remember clearly that Artur promised us after that bastard Adam was called away by Major David last night. "
"That's true," another soldier shouted, "I also saw Petra drinking with her without any clothes."
"There is also a Siren Tavern. This service?" A second lieutenant wearing a navy uniform suddenly became interested.
"Wait, Adam came up last night?" He asked in surprise, "Why didn't I know about this?"
"He made excuses to leave. He killed Major Felix and snatched Miss Petra from him."
The submariner who started the topic gave a different explanation for what happened last night in a few words, with a vulgar look on his face. He continued, "But before he could finish a bottle of wine, he was called away by people sent by Major David."
Looking at the people around him, they already knew what happened last night. It was almost done. Artur, who had been watching the excitement just now, also called Wei Ran for help and moved an oak barrel filled with red wine from the room behind the bar.
"It seems that the generous Artur is ready to abide by the agreement last night?" the submariner who has been manipulating the topic asked proudly.
"There is only one request."
Artur said helplessly, "If any of you offend that bastard Adam, can you solve it outside the pub? Last night I even thought he was going to bring People are coming to my place to arrest Jews, Yuan Tou testified, in my tavern.None of the mice have Jewish ancestry. "
"Yuanshou will not come here to testify for you"
A pilot came up and took a large glass of red wine, "Artur, let Mia come out and sing for everyone. A song? Maybe we can prove to you that not even the rats in your tavern have Jewish blood. ”
“Mia only goes to work in the afternoon.”
After Artur finished speaking proudly, he also asked for a glass from Wei Ran’s hand, and after receiving a glass of red wine, He said with a pained face, "Okay friends, I got this barrel of wine specially from France. Now let's have a drink together and forget about last night's noise! ”
There is no doubt that this proposal was cheered by everyone, and the large bucket of red wine was also consumed at a speed visible to the naked eye in the toasts of Artur and everyone.
At noon, soaked in alcohol, these drinkers who had only just sobered up became drunk again, making the Siren Tavern as busy as yesterday.
As the evening wore on, the atmosphere in the tavern reached its peak as singer Mia came on stage. However, she had just finished singing a song when the lingering chain dog appeared again. Disturbing everyone’s interest
“Adam?
Artur looked at the visitor with a blank expression, "It wasn't last night... To be precise, it should have been early this morning. Wasn't Captain Adam already called away by Major David?" Many of us here have seen it. "
"I didn't see it, I was woken up by their movements. "The submariner muttered in a moderate voice.
"Major David? The visitor was a little confused after hearing Artur's description, "Are you sure it was Major David who sent someone to call him away?" "
"Of course,"
Artur said dissatisfied, "Because the soldier who asked him to leave made too much noise, I even compensated everyone with a barrel of red wine this morning. Sir, please be sure to tell Major David that Captain Adam has affected my business more than once. If this continues, I will have no choice but to close the tavern and leave Kiel Port with the girls. ”
“He also robbed Major Felix’s woman. A captain robbed a major’s woman. How majestic! We all saw it! "I don't know who shouted in the crowd, which immediately aroused the response of most of the drinkers, denounced the unpopular chain dog.
Looking at the two reluctant As the chained dog fled the tavern, a series of jeers and cheers erupted in the hall on the first floor. However, both Artur, Wei Ran, and even Mia on the stage knew that this was just a matter of time. It's just the beginning.
But compared to Artur and others, Wei Ran is even more worried. This is already the second day. Not only has he failed to enter the basement in Mia's room, We haven’t even figured out who Juliet and Romeo are yet, let alone how to help them complete their tasks..
While he was thinking deeply, the increasingly dark night also lit up the lights of the Siren Tavern. Under the stimulation of this feasting and feasting, today's business was much better than last night.
It wasn’t until this military port town started to black out the lights as usual, that the drunkards who were enjoying themselves or not enjoying themselves either chose to leave, or they chose to go upstairs with the dancers to talk about the meaning of life. , on the contrary, the chain dog that Wei Ran and others had been worried about did not come to the door.
"Artur, he can't wait any longer."
Mia, who returned to the room not long ago, ran out, approached Artur who was cleaning the room and whispered, "We must find a doctor as soon as possible now."
"I went out for a walk in the morning." Artur glanced in the direction of the kitchen and saw that Wei Ran had not come back yet, so he lowered his voice. "But I haven't found a doctor I can trust at all."
"Can we just..."
"Shh-" Artur saw the sound coming from the direction of the kitchen. When there was any movement, he immediately made a silent gesture.
When Mia saw Wei Ran coming out of the kitchen, she breathed a sigh of relief and whispered seriously, "Are we just going to watch him die slowly? He must undergo surgery now. Okay!"
Glancing at the curious Wei Ran, Artur gritted his teeth and said, "A little later, I will ask the veterinarian in the town if he is willing to help us."
< p>"Excuse me, do you need a doctor?" Wei Ran came over and asked in a low voice, "A doctor who can perform surgery?""Do you have a suitable candidate?" Mia looked at him in surprise. Wei Ran asked.
"Yes, of course!" Wei Ran assured, patting his chest.
