Chapter 422: Aged Wine and Vinegar

Although it was certain that the victim could not scream, Nao still covered the deceased's mouth just in case.

This minimizes the possibility of the other party making noise.

To a certain extent, it is also a very considerate approach.

Because dying is already very painful, and if you have to cry out again, it will make the whole process even more uncomfortable.

Then it is better to die quietly.

In this way, the transition from life to death can be completed very easily.

The way Nao killed the second guard surprised Erina.

She seemed to know that her position would be discovered by the other party, so she simply walked over in a muffled voice, and before the other party asked her who she was, she dropped a golden "angel coin" - its appearance The number comes from the pair of angel wings on the gold coin pattern of the long-lasting coin.

When the guard saw the gold coins falling to the ground, his attention was suddenly diverted.

The obsession with wealth can sometimes be very fatal.

And this was the last mistake he made in his life.

When the guard saw the gold coin, he picked it up with great joy, not paying attention to Nao who walked away from him as if nothing had happened.

However, the moment he bent down to pick up the coin, Nao suddenly turned around and rushed over, throwing him behind a pillar.

In an instant, the assassination was completed.

Nao dodged out from behind the pillar, picked up the bloody dagger and threw it towards the last archer.

His neck was stabbed through by the short knife, and his whole body was staggered backward by the impact, and was nailed to the wall.

So awesome... Erina watched all the archers being quickly and silently dealt with, and then turned her attention back to the servant who sent the list: He didn't notice all this at all!

Very good, when he walks this way again, I can take action!

Since the archers had disappeared, Erina decided to find a better place to hide that would be more suitable for an ambush.

When the target was finally near the target, Erina saw the right moment and cast a spell to stun it, then hurried to the target to search for his belongings.

Sure enough, there was a list.

She quickly took out a pen and paper and copied down everything on it.

This was probably the fastest she had ever written in her life.

Some of the words were scrawled to the point that only she and Yoshiyuki could understand them—perhaps a little Ji could be added.

After Erina copied the last word, she did not forget to take away all the money from him.

She left the place in a hurry, and after meeting Nao in a safe place, they discussed the items on the list.

At the end of the discussion, the two agreed that it would be better to start with something like this: a large barrel of aged wine vinegar.

The reason why I didn't choose other goods was because only wine could be easily emptied quickly and there was enough space for them to hide.

In addition, although several types of wine will be delivered, only this wine vinegar is marked with the specific winery to be ordered from and the day it must be delivered.

This makes it easier to use hands and feet.

As for why this barrel of wine is so special, it is probably because it is relatively expensive and rare. It’s not something you can buy at any high-end winery.

Luxury jewelry is also divided into levels.

In fact, even its name is special.

"Now, what is wine vinegar?" Erina looked at Nao and asked in confusion: "Wine is wine, and vinegar is vinegar, right? Won't the wine turn into vinegar after a long time? So? Why is it called wine vinegar? Is it called wine vinegar just because it’s grape vinegar?”

"I don't really understand this. But I seem to have vaguely heard of wine and vinegar before... In our world, it seems that Europeans also drank it for a while, right?"

"Have you seen it in the Bible? I've seen it before when I was bored and flipping through a book. It mentioned that Jesus was thirsty when he was crucified, and the Roman soldiers dipped a stick wrapped in a sponge into wine and vinegar. , put it to his mouth and let him suck... At that time, I thought it was torture. I thought it would be too miserable for a person to die without giving him some water. Now thinking about it, the wine and vinegar may be the soldier who was planning to kill himself. Is it something to drink?”

"Oh! Erina-chan knows a lot. But I seem to have seen wine and vinegar in a fairy tale... It seems to be a Grimm fairy tale? Or is it from Andersen... Well, never mind! These two fairy tales I I’ve never been able to tell the difference clearly!”

Nao said this with a smile, thought for a moment, and then said it slowly.

"Anyway, maybe wine vinegar is a drink between wine and vinegar. It's lighter than vinegar, more acidic than wine...? Does this thing need to be mixed with water before it can be drunk? In this way, it looks a bit like us The kind of concentrated juice you buy in supermarkets..."

"It's hard to imagine the taste of this kind of thing... But if it is really grape vinegar, it should taste pretty good, right? After all, grapefruit vinegar is very good! It will be even better if it is paired with mashed radish!"

"Ahaha... Then it's not for drinking! It's completely turned into a dipping sauce."

"But to be honest, I really want to eat it... I haven't tasted something so exquisite in a long time." Erina looked at the list and couldn't help but said: "Many of the things on this list look very good. Food! For example, roasted suckling pig, roasted suckling lamb, roasted suckling pigeon... Why are they all made from suckling?"

"Because it's more tender." Nao said with a smile: "In this world, this kind of thing is quite expensive...because obviously when you grow up, you can eat more meat? When you were young, you just eat it directly If you eat it, the price per kilogram of meat will definitely go up."

"Um...yes." Erina looked at the cargo list and couldn't help but frowned: "Uh, wait, what is this? Why is there preserved eggs on the list..."

"Oh, it's Chinese food~ I don't dare to eat that thing at all, it tastes very strong."

"...But the servant likes to eat it." Erina looked at the list and suddenly remembered Yoshiyuki, and couldn't help but feel a hint of sourness in her heart: "He would eat it directly dipped in white vinegar...and also make fun of it. Crushed and mixed with tofu. I’ve tried it too, but I can’t accept it at all.”

"That's right. I feel like Maekawa will eat a lot of things that we don't dare to try? Maybe he can also accept stinky canned herring."

"Haha... maybe... By the way, I still have a question." Erina thought of such an incident and asked worriedly: "The feeling of carrying a barrel of wine, and the feeling of carrying the two of us inside." The feeling of the wooden barrel should be completely different, right? It won’t reveal its secrets?”

"It depends on how we act." Nao said with a serious expression: "As long as we do it after they load the barrel into the car, and then put the barrel back to its original position, it shouldn't be It will be noticed!”
