His outfit today was 1e966b75dc also very flashy. Why does he like ed003a58c1 floral patterns so much? I could really eae7bf9d05 see Adam from 0aaa9715e3 10 meters away. 93902e6fab536f78

Moreover, today, he ffc8b0904d was wearing a f8a856892c wide-brimmed straw hat de1073d89e and sunglasses like a8d6df7aff a trophy wife 98d7b6c54b going on an e43b926676 outing.

No matter how much 6b95265dcd I thought about it, 189efda4e0 the only way I 71e212e6b9 could survive was to a09889f192 entrust the job I 6165e425be was hired for to 95dfb1e2f0 a mercenary who could 5ad4ff07d1 do it better than 3d8704a9b0 I could. I even considered f1cd32be86 bringing a researcher f3b51fb7eb onto my side 86004e603d to dig into d06ff1bd97 the Fixford secrets, 16e9b55292 but it seemed c276f495cc pointless.

So, I contacted Adam, 643adfee13 who had a connection 21ff6b200f with Black. Of course, a confidentiality cedfc393f8 fee and an introduction 279d03e9c6 fee were charged.e4d7833753170082

Surprisingly, Black lived 2c5aa93675 in an open 22fdf883c4 area. Given his nickname and 442df4a4c7 his unusual profession, I ac047098a1 had expected him to 4b79c8add5 live either in a 9f2dfbeff7 remote mountain hideaway, free e48411b25c from prying eyes. If not, 3852460333 in a 8a34f93fa1 penthouse with 0a58ab05fe a panoramic 55777407e3 view of e0c7f2cc81 the city. 0ad36c07db6793c4
But to my 21c759dca7 surprise, his residence 4fd323e6bf was a townhouse, 03101c1ac4 nestled along the c1403f5ed8 coast, with a e1b97ea74f collection of modestly-sized f96112616f houses clustered together.61e5ec4991d597a1

Yeah. It’s all my fault. Trusting Adam was my 6ff3368aa3 mistake. He acted like he adf14e49e9 knew Black very well, f7ee810b29 so I thought, without 5a0952017d the exaggeration, at least 9411a5f15f he was an acquaintance. But judging by the e4a22f9ba8 cold reception, it seemed ad37313923 like they had only 8d3526a1c9 crossed paths a few 4a00b08a61 times.0c1515b6b7ba796a

As Black aimed the 57c5aa3042 gun, Adam raised both 2eafc5526c arms in surrender and 7331a91552 nudged me with his 01789e2881 elbow, slowly making his d193fa457c way into the garden.That was exactly 029c2f5f08 two hours ago.

While we were being 9679a1988a scolded, Black suddenly interjected, c6628487a3 adding his comment. As Adam and I 1debb1992d crouched in the corner 759d1dac60 of the garden pulling e4c8220117 weeds, Black sat elegantly fb3983d7fa under a parasol, reading e531f7a5f2 a book.Even now, nothing has 89251cd3f8 changed.

Adam, proudly taking credit 9b9f622029 with my money, slapped 30119281cb me on the back 425e72505e and laughed heartily. Not feeling the 09413f71ec need to respond, bcf8894a85 I just sighed.1dd587e5289c6e24

The same 1ba513c91a situation happened cc1eab965a two more 6dd31a225b times. Adam scolded 2bedc3a2fd me, asking 3b427afe70 if I 4979553ded was trying f3a924d5a0 to impress 125bb72d18 someone or 22b72f42d4 what kind 0d46eb5ac2 of weeds 4b1d756f00 I was 9bd3c77db8 pulling. f7a5912c6d185fdb
But it a17828b96f was always 2dda7aa1fc the weeds 1e6d902168 Adam pulled e0d2959ee3 that caused 945cd74f1b the issue. His presence was more 5d690a5275 harmful than helpful, so 4626c6b8fd finally, unable to hold 8b4855bd55 it in any longer, 57bbcb4ec9 I quietly spoke up.09956ccca98c7dc2

Adam flashed a 76f456d86a donkey-like grin, revealing ccd19416f5 his neat teeth, c84e25a9f3 and threw off cf09f8cc72 his dirt-streaked gloves. He called 6ef692b1e8 out a 8ed079830b greeting to f4f125c534 Black, sitting b0cd7c777a far off, 558e678930 but he 8077f049a0 didn’t even 606877421b pretend to 5c4a6d067f listen. d0318e490006418b

Nickname: Black. His real name is e060a15e7e Bobby.00fcac04b5153344
He had a complex 2f3e08a036 about his real name, a23f1ea358 so he used a 786e59ef6d somewhat teenage-like nickname as fa75938d79 if it were his 61662099f2 real one. He was a 0dfa4107bc mercenary with extraordinary d01f008e01 skills and a 71bf1e210a high price tag. When taking on a 7893b96e85 mission, I could choose 01ba73e3df a backup mercenary to 5b1413b0a7 assist me, but Black’s 3f01b75f3f fee was nearly equivalent f489eb1290 to the mission reward, f8ec115f7e so I had never 42cf1e8774 chosen him. 5b64ded409a9415b

Looking back bcfbc77b3c now, though 9bb6846923 it seems 523cb9879b pointless, I 456a192752 regretted not 3608d077f6 selecting him 46820f8930 at least 662e77f416 once and a015661ce6 building a 31f99226d9 rapport.
