I, the prince in distress, send money

Chapter 8 Chris's Story
The nameless slum tavern had turned into a human slaughterhouse, with eight thugs hacked to pieces by four players and completely routed.

Everything happened so fast.

From the moment Lin Ruoyu suddenly attacked and took two bloods in a row, to the moment Xiao Gui was stabbed in the shoulder and entered a blood rage state, transforming into a berserker, the whole process lasted only two minutes, and all eight thugs were lying down.

The person who tried to escape failed as he was caught up from behind by the fourth player who stabbed him in the heart area with a dagger. He fell to the ground and died with convulsions.

The waitress, wearing a thick long skirt, stood blankly in the middle of the tavern. She witnessed the beginning and end of everything. The players who suddenly jumped up saw that she was a woman and let her go, so she was still able to stand now.

Lin Ruoyu stood up from half-kneeling. He raised his hand and wiped his face, wiping off some of the warm red liquid, successfully turning his face into a clown face.

"Do you have water and cloth?"

Lin Ruoyu asked the waitress in a normal tone. The latter's face turned blue and her lips trembled. When she heard the question from the most brutal of the four thugs, she pointed tremblingly at the bar counter.

"There's...cloth inside, and water...the water is in the kitchen..."

"Great. Is anyone on the second floor?"

"Two people were drunk and sleeping."

"very good."

Lin Ruoyu was very happy with the waitress's cooperation. He raised his hand and pointed at the little ghost and another uninjured player, then pointed to the stairs.

"You two go up there and clean up the mess. Take your weapons and stab everyone lying on the ground in the heart to prevent anyone from pretending to be dead."

"That guy whose head was split open by the little devil, wants another blow?"

"One more blow, don't let it go."

"okay."

Then he looked back at the waitress.

"Go get water."

After saying that, Lin Ruoyu walked to the back of the bar, stepped over the stretched body of the tavern owner, and rummaged through the counter full of wine bottles. He found a gray rag and an iron box full of coins.

What an unexpected gain!
Lin Ruoyu took out the iron box without hesitation, placed it on the bar, and prepared to take it away later.

At this time, there were abnormal noises coming from upstairs. Someone was struggling and screaming, but Lin Ruoyu didn't care.

At this time, an iron basin was placed on the bar, and the rising hot steam hit Lin Ruoyu's face. He subconsciously looked up and found that it was brought by the waitress.

She didn't run away?
Lin Ruoyu judged from the waitress's reaction that she was so scared that she didn't rush forward with her weapon during the fight just now. The latter should have no direct relationship with the bar hooligans, so he deliberately asked her to fetch water and found an excuse to let her escape.

Unexpectedly, the waitress was so honest that she not only did not run away, but turned around and brought over a basin of hot water.

Lin Ruoyu didn't think much about it. Since she didn't run away, it didn't matter. He didn't intend to kill her anyway. If the latter had any ulterior motives, it would not be too late to take action later.

So, Lin Ruoyu put his hand into the basin of hot water, scooped up the water to wash his face, and washed the blood off his face.

This blood is not his, it's okay to wash it off.

While he was washing his face, there was a banging sound on the stairs and the little kid ran down, shouting to take credit.

"The two drunks have been taken down. Boss, you'll never guess what's on the second floor."

"There's wine and three girls."

This was not said by Lin Ruoyu, but by the waitress who brought him water.

Lin Ruoyu, Xiao Gui, and the player who stabbed the corpse on the ground immediately turned their attention to the waitress.

The latter looked a little scared, but did not back down. She licked her lips, mustered up her courage, and continued.

"Those three women were the ones Hubbard kidnapped and forced to work as skilled women. They were outsiders from out of town who wanted to come to Neama to work."

"What about you? What are you doing here?"

Lin Ruoyu now understood that the waitress didn't run away and must have other intentions.

"I'm a local from the slums, and Hubbard's son happened to like me, so they let me work as a waiter here."

"Who is Hubbard?"

"The owner of this tavern." "Where is his son?"

"over there."

Lin Ruoyu followed the waitress's finger and looked at a corpse on the ground that had happened to be killed by the fourth player.

Well, Hubbard and his son are both dead.

"What's your name?"

"My name is Connie, the daughter of Isaac, the thief from Neama District 21."

Connie's tone had become very steady and composed by now. When she introduced herself, she emphasized her father's name.

At this moment, a light called pride flashed on her face.

Lin Ruoyu looked back at the third player and pointed to the second floor.

"Go check with those girls and question them separately."

"clear."

Lin Ruoyu is not an idiot. He will not believe everything Connie says. There just so happens that there are three living people on the second floor whose statements can be checked.

If Connie was deceiving herself, then the three girls' answers would definitely have flaws.

"Boss!"

At this time, the little devil ran out from behind the tavern.

"I found the entrance to the basement wine cellar."

"Go open the door, let them out, and clean up the scene...

Hey, kid, don't come and wash your face. Your face was cut by a knife. Washing your face now will only make the wound burst open. Go find a clean towel, or something like that, and wrap your face up."

Lin Ruoyu instructed.

"We'll get Chris to treat your face when we get home."

"Ok."

The little ghost left, and Lin Ruoyu looked back at Connie, who also quickly tensed her toes and stopped moving.

"Chris...did you just say Chris from Thirteenth Street?"

"What do you mean by Chris from Thirteenth Street? I only know Chris Lin."

"it's him."

"You know him?"

Connie nodded heavily.

"I know him. He's the Prince of Bagnia, a miracle doctor on Thirteenth Street who's willing to treat the poor. Mr. Chris is a very prestigious person in our Twenty-First District, and many poor people respect him."

"The prince of Bagnia, the miracle doctor?"

Lin Ruoyu had a lot of questions in his head.

"What's going on? Explain."

Connie said,

“Many people know that Mr. Chris is the hostage sent by the Kingdom of Bagniya to Neama. He is the youngest prince of the Kingdom of Bagniya. He is also a doctor who was willing to treat the poor a few years ago.

In the past two months, he has successfully saved many poor and seriously ill patients who were considered incurable by pastors, so his fame has soared."

Oh, I knew that the novice instructor NPC was not simple, but I didn’t expect that he would have such a background story. Interesting!

Lin Ruoyu and another player's eyes suddenly lit up, and something called gossip and curiosity appeared on their faces.
