Chapter 422: Aged wine vinegar

   Even though 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 a sound.

  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 would be 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.

 The guard's attention was suddenly diverted when he saw the gold coins falling to the ground.

 The obsession with wealth can sometimes be very fatal.

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

After the guard saw the gold coin, he picked it up with great joy, not paying attention to Nao who walked away with his back 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 that 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 with a 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 all the archers disappeared, Erina decided to find a better place to hide in an ambush.

After the target was finally released, Erina saw the right moment to cast a spell to stun it, and hurried to the target to collect her belongings.

 There is indeed a list.

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

 This is probably the fastest she has ever written in her life.

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

Erina did not forget to take away all the money he had after copying the last word.

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

 The two discussed until the end and agreed that it would be better to start with something like this: a large barrel of aged wine vinegar.

 The reason why we did not choose other goods is because only wine can be easily emptied quickly and there is 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 will make it easier to use your hands and feet.

As for why this barrel of wine is so special, it is probably because it is relatively expensive and rare. It cannot be purchased in any high-end winery.

 Luxury accessories are also divided into grades.

 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 that is brewed turn into vinegar after a long time? So, won't it turn into vinegar?

Why is it called wine vinegar? Is it called wine vinegar just because it’s grape vinegar?”

“I don’t understand this very well. But I seem to have vaguely heard of wine 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.

, brought it to his mouth and let him suck... At that time, I thought it was torture. I thought it would be too miserable to not give a person some water when he was about to die. Now that I think 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, no matter! 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 and 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 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 radish puree!”

“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?"

"It's because it's fresher," Nao said with a smile, "In this world, this kind of thing is quite expensive...because it's obvious that when you grow up, you eat more meat. When you were young, you just eat it.

If you eat it, the price per kilogram of meat will definitely go up."

 "Well...yes." Erina looked at the cargo list and couldn't help but frowned: "Uh, wait, what is this? Why is there preserved egg 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 thought of Yoshiyuki, and couldn't help but feel a little sour in her heart: "He will eat it directly dipped in white vinegar... and he will also use it to make fun.

Crushed and mixed with tofu. I’ve tried it too, but I can’t accept it at all.”

“Yes, Maekawa seems to eat a lot of things that we dare not try? Maybe he can also accept stinky canned herring.”

"Haah... 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?”

"This depends on how we act." Nao showed a serious expression and said: "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
