"Sir, what do you want with him? Come to me instead. I have good relations with many retailers and shops. This kid has no such connections." Seeing that Finn Lewis chose such a small lad, someone in the vicinity immediately voiced out. Many others seconded him right away.
However, the lad didn't rebut nor defended himself. Instead, he just quietly stood by Finn Lewis's side, waiting for his decision. His reaction caught Finn Lewis off guard. After a pause, Finn gave Dunn Monty a look. Dunn instantly pulled a stern face, loaded his handgun, and said gravely, "Step aside, everyone. Our young master has chosen this kid as our guide. Get out of our way."
Dunn's announcement finally made these people move aside. They were accustomed to such situations, they didn't pay much attention and made way for Finn Lewis and his crew quickly. None dared to mess with them.
Once they had walked a bit further, the kid spoke, "Gentlemen, are you heading to the surface?"
