I bought a few clothes that were not so conspicuous in the shop on the street. Although the mage was very rich, in order to keep a low profile, the laundry items selected by them, including jack, were second-hand goods with obvious mending marks or defective products after repair. Looking at his companion''s happy appearance of holding these clothes, cheese''s heart was actually very sad, but when the mage proposed that he could buy some less conspicuous new clothes, he was refused by the client.

    "Those bright colored clothes look terrible." That''s Mona''s answer to cheese. For the simple northerners, the basic function of clothes is to prevent cold and provide little defense. They don''t care about the style and appearance of clothes, as long as they are convenient to move. In the wild near Longji mountain, wearing too bright colors can easily expose yourself in the white snow.

    In this case, cheese is not easy to say, but maybe it is to compensate them. In the next action, as long as the three people are interested in the things on the roadside stall, the mage will buy them after a symbolic bargain. So when they came to the door of the hotel, even Mona, who had always been a steady woman, was holding all kinds of groceries and snacks. Pushing open the thick oak door, cheese strides into the hotel with the Red Hammer and black heavy shield emblem, which indicates that the hotel is an industry run by the strong hammer family, and it is also the most secure store in the whole liehammer chain. Naturally, a night''s room charge in such a hotel is not cheap. According to the price tag on the board behind the receptionist, the room here is at least one-third more expensive than the ordinary hotel I saw before.

    The waiter in the hotel naturally noticed the four cheese men. At this time, Mona and they had finished dressing up. Therefore, from the appearance, the three members of the team were dressed as poor mercenaries. According to the experience of the waiters for many years, such people would not come here for the night. So if these people aren''t just in town and can''t figure out what''s going on, it''s the guy in the gray robe who''ll pay. Sure enough, cheese went to the counter while the other three were still looking at the various weapons and animal specimens hanging in the hotel lobby. The master silently took out a money bag from his robe and threw it on the counter.

    "Four rooms. Help me find four horses." The simple mask made it difficult for the waiter to see the face under the shadow of the mage''s hood, while the deliberately lowered voice made the cheese sound older than his actual age.

    "Yes, sir. Your room is at the end of the corridor on the second floor, and your horse will be waiting for you in the stable tomorrow morning. Would you like me to prepare dinner for you At this time, the waiter had completely regarded cheese as a businessman or scholar in the past. As for the remaining three people, they were regarded as his hired guards. Although the order of the strong hammer collar has always been good, it is not surprising that a rich man who acts alone employs several mercenaries as bodyguards in order to guard against nomads or robbers disguised as nomads.

    It''s just that the cheese asked for four rooms as soon as he opened his mouth. Generally speaking, the boss of mercenaries would not pay for his employees. He was covered with the signboard of Lord hammer. He could let the three mercenaries go to other parts of the city for the night and come back to meet here tomorrow. However, the subtext of the master''s writing is that he is a generous employer. This kind of gold owner naturally has to flatter. Maybe a few copper coins will be better than standing here for a whole day.

    Although the servant''s flattering smile makes cheese a little uncomfortable, sometimes it can save a lot of unnecessary trouble by properly showing financial resources. Cheese dropped a few more copper coins on the counter and said.

    "You don''t have to prepare dinner for us. It''s rare to come to tiebao. Is there any restaurant worth recommending? " The busy battlefield life had already made the mage dissatisfied with the diet for a long time. Now that we have decided to have a good rest in tiebao, we should take this opportunity to have a big meal. Moreover, restaurants and pubs have always been the best choice for intelligence gathering.

    "In the restaurant, I''ll push you to try the barbecue with tiebao characteristics. It''s said that the boss learned the skills from the nomads. You know, although those damned guys can''t do anything else, they have their own unique skills in cooking beef and mutton. The shop is not far away. It''s in the second lane on the left side of the door. If you go now, you should come back quickly. The iron fort is under curfew recently. If you stay on the street after sunset, you will be put into prison! " The waiter reminded me attentively.

    "Curfew? Why? I don''t think there are any banners posted at the gate of the city? " Although urban curfews are not a big deal, they are implemented in many cities and towns. However, there is no need to implement curfew in cities like tiebao. Moreover, the waiters clearly mentioned that curfews have been implemented only recently. Does this mean that there are some problems in this city?

    "You don''t know. Isn''t count Saron leading the plague? The Lord of the city burned several refugees infected with plague at the gate of the city a few days ago. As a result, from that day on, there will be a lot of mice on the streets of the iron fort in the evening Speaking of this, the waiter stopped warily, looked around to make sure no one was paying attention to it. He lowered the volume and continued to say to cheese."Now it is said in the city that it is the victims of those refugees who have turned into these rats, ready to take revenge on the people of the iron fort. The Lord of the city has just started curfew, and he is said to be hiring a pharmacist to get rid of the rats. But let me say, if those mice are really made of evil spirits, it will not work to find a pharmacist. It''s better to find some priests in the church. "

    Knowing the reason for the curfew, cheese certainly didn''t fully believe the rumors of the waiters, but it seems that there will be rat infestation in the evening. After thanking the waiter in a low voice, the mage generously threw several copper plates to him, and then turned to meet his partner in the hall.

    "What''s the matter? Why did it take so long? " Although she has never been to such a big city, Elsa also runs a part-time hotel in her hometown after all. She is quite clear about the process of accommodation, so she is puzzled about why cheese came back so long.

    "Nothing. We''ll eat and talk later." They told the other people their rooms, told them to put down their things, and then they left for the barbecue shop recommended by the waiter.

    To his surprise, although the front of the barbecue shop was well decorated and the interior decoration was comfortable, there were fewer people eating in the restaurant than he thought. But now that he sat down, cheese had no plan to go. He read almost half of the items on the menu. The mage took out a silver coin in the boss''s suspicious eyes. As the silver coin was thrown into the boss''s hand, the suspicious color on the boss''s face turned into ecstasy.

    "Come on, this is our own wheat wine. Please don''t dislike it. In recent days, because of the curfew, there are almost no guests in the evening. If you wait a moment, I will go to prepare for it After the boss enthusiastically put four oak cups filled with golden ale on the party''s table, cheese also learned something about the store.

    "What curfew? What''s going on? " Jack asked.

    So cheese took a sip of ale and told the rest what he had just heard from the waiter. For this kind of strange things, they would not believe it at ordinary times, but after all, a few people were still fighting with rat people two days ago, and now they hear about mice, it is inevitable that the warning line in their hearts is raised again.

    "Do you think it has anything to do with the rat man?" Mona whispered.

    The mage continued to drink the ale in his glass with a big gulp, then put the empty wine cup on the table and made a hiccup. He said casually.

    "Whether it''s OK or not, we''ll take a night off, replenish as planned tomorrow, and then come back tomorrow night to have a good look at it."
