It was a few hours' carriage ride south to get from Ian's mansion to the capital of Manda. This is considered close, the base camp of the nobles is usually not far from the capital, Ian held the map of Manda and compared it horizontally and vertically, thinking that Manda was about the same size as the map of Europe, but the shape was completely different, just a solitary, regular continent floating on the ocean.

He watched Isa's hand holding the reins tense, ready to get up at any time to meet the enemy, the capital was no better than other places, and for the Ian family, the closer north they were to the Black Tower, the safer. Going elsewhere now would undoubtedly be a place of death for the fledgling Ian IV.

Many things hung in the balance, the bloodthirsty relatives, the House of Lords who were on the sidelines, the chief of the Black Tower who showed his attitude, and even the panic.

As for why he chose to participate in that panic, Ian does regret it a little now, he has made the same mistake of listening to others, this time he came to a world that is not as good as the earth, it seems, there are not many good people.

"Young Master, we've arrived. ”

Isha had already found an inconspicuous square to park the carriage, and the plainly dressed Ian IV carefully stepped out of the carriage, which no longer had the mark of the Ian family, and looked like a child of an ordinary family.

This is the capital of the country of Manda, the city of Yanbarren.

Ian looked around, and the only thing he could see was two people whispering on the corner, but other than that, the capital was quiet.

"It's the same, that's how the capital is, young master, let's go. ”

"Isn't there a lot of stuff hidden here, the Blacktower and the city ......of Corvey," Ian felt the atmosphere of the Sherlock Holmes era as she walked through the arch, the same scenery he had seen in the House of Lords that night, low buildings, somewhat dark, damp streets, shops with golden clocks and ticks, and behind the window was a craftsman with one-sided glasses and a vest.

But something was wrong.

The materials used in the construction seem to have transcended their time, with almost no visible joints between bricks and, in some places, robotic arms hidden in shops.

The energy used behind it can't be steam.

"Ah, I'm sorry. "Passing around the corner, a pedestrian accidentally bumped into Ian's shoulder.

"It's fine. Ian subconsciously turned his head, and the other party lowered the brim of his hat, revealing only a side face.

"It's a bad day, isn't it?" the other man smiled and nodded, and quickly turned the corner away.

Ian felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say it, and when he turned around, he saw Isha looking at the other person's back, revealing an obvious wry smile.

"Young Master, put your hood on. Ishara pulled Rayan's coat and reached into his left pocket, pulling out a fresh note from it.

The note read: "The weather is terrible today. ”

This kind of bridge Ian is not strange, but what makes him puzzled is that he and Isha are standing together, and it is obvious that he is not the one with the money.

Although the value of the lie is recorded on the Internet, the country of Manda still has gold and silver as the anchor currency, which still gives thieves an opportunity to take advantage of.

"Young Master, control your expression, they can see it. If you can't control it well, put on a hat to cover it. ”

Ian followed Isha's gaze and looked down the street, where there were many people wearing hats, and they lowered the brim of their hats so that others could not easily see their expressions.

Occasionally, a few aristocratic girls holding flower umbrellas and wearing skirts walked by, laughing all the way, but they did not hide their expressions.

Even in the land of lies, there are high and low lies. As a nobleman, not only does he have an insurmountable information gap compared to the commoners, but even if he participates in lying, he has enough wealth to guide the ending.

They don't need to be hidden.

Isa took Ian's hand, lowered her eyes, and hurried by.

The House of Lords is in the center of the capital, with its bell tower and dome visible in the distance.

But that's not the destination.

The suburbs are.

It's more than two kilometres from the House of Lords, and it's dotted with low-slung office buildings that remind Ian of a detective jumping off a building.

"It should be, this is it. Isha muttered to herself, and the next second, her lips moved slightly, and an inexplicable power was transmitted from her body to the distance.

Third-Order Spiritual Spell: Cloud Sparrow.

Detecting, reporting, and finding out the whereabouts of the Black Tower, this is the spiritual spell that belongs to the Black Tower.

Nemesis gave the general directions, and the two planned to find the sniper's trail first. It stands to reason that mercenaries of this level are not easy to leave behind, but Isha is confident in her spells.

"Maybe the person has been disposed of. Ian wandered aimlessly around the capital, like an older sister with her younger brother, "Anyway, Gufer seems to know that person, why didn't we ask her at the time?"

"First, just because she knew at the time didn't mean the sniper wasn't dead. Second, we asked her about it to ensure that her family would not know about it. Master Ian, although you two children have your own ...... Friendship, but now you have to be careful in everything. ”

"I don't remember much about the past. ”

"It's not a bad thing, Master Ian, it's a rare friendship. Most of the children of the nobility are reluctant to go to the Black Tower to endure hardships, and Gufir is willing to be a mage, which should have something to do with you. ”

"Okay, I remember. ”

Suddenly, Ian saw Isa's expression change suddenly. She looked up expressionlessly and glanced from east to west.

Next to them was an alley, and the line between the alley and the main entrance of the House of Lords seemed to be unobstructed.

It's a coincidence, it's a coincidence. Nearly three kilometers or so, if this line with a not wide field of view can really be used, then the other party is not simple.

But Isha didn't stop, squatted down to tie her shoelaces, and tidied up her clothes before pulling Ian away.

"Sister Isha?" Ian asked, tilting his head.

"There was a problem with that building, the fourth floor was clearly cleaned, unlike the others. And the top of the few rooms, the windows are facing the sun, if there were people living in it before, there should be furniture, the wooden floor should have obvious color difference, but all the rooms have no floor. If no one lives in it for a long time, there should be no one to clean it. Moreover, between that building and the House of Lords, there was no obvious barrier, not at all. Master Ian, your arrival in the House of Lords was very sudden, and the other party was not prepared, but he still picked the most suitable position......"

"Maybe, none of them are aimed at me. ”

"This kind of thing, don't guess. Isha shook her head, not daring to think further.

Because of this building, it was obviously prepared, but Ian may have arrived a little too hastily, giving them time so that there would not be two floors left uncleaned.

It was the first assassination attempt against Ian, and it was quick, precise, and the evacuation was perfect.

It should also be the previous enemy.

"So what now?"

"Don't worry, follow me, I can track his location. The right hand drew the spell again, and countless cloudy sparrows walked stealthily around the building, looking for the trail left behind.

The overturned basin of water and the trampled grass may have been their doing. The more professional the mercenary, the more recognizable the evidence left behind, even if it is hidden. For example, they will choose to walk in corners that are not seen, and those plants that usually do not see the light and are not trampled by pedestrians may leave their footprints.

Following this trail, Isha circled around suspicious places like a lion hunting, wandering aimlessly as much as possible to avoid anyone seeing their purpose.

Those people are also very sensitive to pursuit.

Soon, Ian noticed that Isha's steps were slowing, and he looked up and looked around.

On both sides of the calm street, there are long-abandoned yards and houses on one side, and on the other side it looks like there are still people living there, with two bags of garbage pushed at the door, and the lawn is neatly manicured.

Isha subconsciously looked at the abandoned house.

But Ian felt that something was wrong.

"Sister Isa, go first. Ian tugged at Isa's sleeve hard, and the two of them naturally left the place.

But in the shadows, someone sees it all.

"Young Master, what's going on?" Hiding in a secluded place, Isha set a silent spirit spell.

"You found him?"

"yes, the house that looks like no one lives. ”

"I think there's a problem, Isha. Someone is deliberately obfuscating the public, which is a kind of ...... Counter-reconnaissance means. There were obvious signs of entry and exit in that room, both at the front door and in the windows......"

"Young Master...... Where did you learn that?" Isha frowned, recalling the teacher she had hired earlier, and it seemed that he hadn't given him such a lesson.

"You don't care about it for now, I just went to other countries and learned it when I lost my memory. Isa, I look familiar with the other party's counter-reconnaissance methods, listen to me this time, let's wait here, you have a spell to monitor the situation there, right?"

Isha nodded, and Ian whispered in her ear. Soon, a black crow silently flew to a nearby tree.

But instead of looking at the abandoned house, it looked at the opposite side of the house.

Because Ian noticed that although there were signs of occupancy in the house, the garbage at the door, the stench was very obvious, and I was afraid that it had not been lost for a long time.

But to speak of anomalies, all the houses in the neighborhood have anomalies.

The two huddled in the alley and waited quietly, and Isha took out two sandwiches and laid out the carpet. The alleys of Yanhuang City are very clean, and I don't know what means are used to prevent others from littering.

"Young master, tell me honestly, what happened?"

"Oh, my sister, I'm really honest, I'm really from another world, and all the stuff I learned before......" Ian was forced to tell his story again, but Isha clearly didn't believe it.

When night fell, today's Manda country was also shrouded in fog, and just as the fog began to fill, someone quietly opened the door opposite the abandoned house.

Naturally, he descended the steps, lowered his hat, and disappeared into the mist.

"Isha, let's keep up. Ian made a decisive decision.

"There's something wrong with this person?"

"Yes, this house is clean from the inside out, but there is a garbage can not far away, he still hasn't emptied the garbage at the door, he is not a resident of this house, and now, he is going to run. ”
