Bab 114: Ploy (4)

Louise and her group led Billy and the others to the back of a certain tavern as if they knew the best roads to use at night without being found. Although it was past midnight, the place was still working, even though not many people were there. At least, that is what Billy assumed, considering the amount of noise he could hear.

"Some of our friends work here, and they will offer us shelter and help with that task of yours," Louise said. "Stay here, and I am going to explain things to them."

The back of the tavern was like a stable, pretty messy place where travelers left the horses. In any case, Billy didn't mind letting Louise out of his sight because her friends were with him. Considering that she asked them to be freed, knowing that she would end up owing more favors, she wouldn't do anything to put them at Billy's Wrath. Not that it was something impressive, but people tend to fear the unknown.
