Chapter 172 - A Hymn to Victory 07

As the minutes ticked by, the foggy sky of the Forbidden City after the rain did not make people feel comfortable, and the wind chimes under the eaves made an irritating chime. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Dio bites the cigarette holder of her pipe, and the empty streets after the rain always calm people's minds, although the irritable wind chimes and the sound of the ticking rain make her a little unhappy, but she still desperately turns her mind.

The first is Bai Ze's ability. The only thing she was worried about was that before she could lay out the necessary layout, Bai Ze would use her ability again, even if it seemed that there was still plenty of time now, Bai Ze's ability could "erase" time at any time. Well, leave this matter to Jacqueline. Then there is You Guang's ability, if she can't say You Guang's real name, then she just needs to prove that she knows You Guang's real name.

In any way, even if you don't say it or tell others, as long as words and language have their own meaning, then the ability to swim in light is not perfect. The point is that even if you don't know if it's Yuguang's real name, as long as you want to say it, the memory will be erased. Not only the person who spoke, but even the person who was told about it would not be able to remember the name of the person because of her ability. Originally, for the sake of safety, Dior should have experimented with the ability to swim light again, but time was running out.

"Whew~"

Hot air and smoke poured out of her lungs, and the sensation of breathing perhaps reminded her brain of the need to breathe for oxygen, and she felt slightly clearer. That's right, it's a gamble. She wasn't actually sure of winning, and she didn't gamble everything on her own plans. In the face of monsters with unimaginable abilities, there is only one way for her to win. Of course, it is impossible to expect You Guang to say her name by herself, instead of expecting the other party to make that kind of low-level mistake, it is better to consider what ability she can awaken at a critical moment.

"Let me do the math, what else?" she muttered to herself, "Zi Buyu, Liao Xueqing, Jacqueline, You Guang, Bai Ze, Su Xiang, and that monk..."

So... Su Xiang, are you ready to win?

After contacting Jacqueline, she strode towards the Forbidden City with a cigarette butt in her mouth. You Guang must still be waiting for her there, only there can receive the news of Zhu Yuanfang's intelligence network in the Forbidden City as soon as possible, if not, she will not be able to react immediately when she and Su Xiang are about to approach the Forbidden City, and take immediate measures, and only the top of the Imperial City can have a glimpse of the Forbidden City.

Without pausing, she strolled through the streets of the Forbidden City, looking at the vendors on the side of the road, and headed in the direction of the royal city. Occasionally she stopped by a roadside vendor to buy some, but when she shoved them into her mouth, she remembered that she didn't need to eat such food for a long time. The scraps of food left a dry sensation in her mouth, and she pursed her lips and poured a bottle of water in one gulp.

"Wow~"

An irritating cry suddenly came from a short distance in front of her, and she frowned, threw the empty plastic bottle into the trash can, and then glanced over there. A little girl with pigtails is wiping her tears, probably lost with her family. Dio glanced around, leaning against the side of the alley, staring silently at the crying little girl. Most of the pedestrians around just glanced at the little girl and ignored her. I don't know how many minutes later, the little girl seemed to be tired of crying, squatting in the corner of the alley opposite Dior and resting.

It's a safe city, Dio looked around, if it was in the town where Dio was born, it wouldn't be long before such a lost little girl would never be found. She grinned weirdly. In the more remote areas of the Ming Empire, it is also the same as the town where Dio was born, after all, it is the capital of the world's first empire.

The little girl also seemed to notice Dio's gaze, and Shui Ling's glasses also turned to stare at her. Notice yourself?Dior snorted. It is rumored that children can see certain things that adults can't, and maybe that's true. Dio deliberately hid her body in the dark, she didn't breathe, her pulse, heartbeat frequency, and body temperature were lower than that of humans, so it stands to reason that her sense of existence should be very low. Could it be that this child is a human on the surface, but in fact she is a half-demon? No, she has been in the Ming Empire for just one week, and the probability of encountering two half-demons in a row is too low.

While she was still thinking, the little girl ran up to her and tugged at her sleeve. This little guy... Isn't there really a sense of crisis at all? Dio was just about to shake off her hand, and suddenly felt that this might be a good opportunity.

“... Are you lost?"

"No, I'm hungry. The little girl grabbed her sleeve with one hand and wiped the tears from her hands with the other.

Hungry?

"Your dress is not ordinary, you should be an ordinary little girl from a rich family. Generally speaking, someone will accompany you to go out to take care of it, once you lose it, someone will come to look for it, and the servant will inevitably be scolded, and when you cry, maybe your family has been scolded for a bloody head," Dio snorted coldly, "and you are still here looking for someone you don't know to eat, as if you are not worried about your situation at all." You think as long as you can cry, someone will come to you, right?"

"Yes, because I'm the 'eldest lady'," the little girl also pursed her lips a little dissatisfied, "everyone is polite to me, and you don't look like a good person, so I came to you." ”

"It's not like a good person, that's right. ”

"In the past, someone came to kidnap me and demanded money from my father, but then he was arrested by the yamen," the little girl sighed, "obviously he doesn't look like a bad person, his wife is separated, he is helpless, and finally he has no way out to do this kind of thing." ”

"Don't you think that the so-called "bad people" will have a reason to do bad things?" Dior sneered, "Let me teach you one thing, those who do evil "without a reason" are the "wicked people". A little girl like you, if she gets lost in England, she will be sold to a green house. ”

"Isn't that good?" wiped away the tears, the little girl cried before as if pretended, she pulled the corner of Dior's clothes and squatted at her feet, "Anyway, I will marry in the future, and there is no need for me to exist in this world." Wouldn't it be great if I could benefit somebody because of me? At least my existence has value. ”

“... Interesting, what's your name?"

"Liao Yuqing, everyone says that my family is very rich, but in fact I don't have any money, so I don't have servants or anything," the little girl said, "Actually, I just got lost, and I used to cry like this when I was lost, and the catchers would take me home." ”

It's... Interesting. Is this the so-called fate? Dio took out a string of sugar gourds from the snack bag he had bought and handed it to her.

"Aren't you hungry?"

She took the sugar gourd, took a bite, and then said:

"I don't like sweets. ”

Still picky?Dior shook his head. At this time, the shouts of who came from the streets:

"Looks like I'm looking for you. "Dior didn't know when he was holding a cigarette and striking a match.

"Smoking is not good for your health, my brother also likes to smoke, and now he always coughs. Liao Yuqing glanced at Dior

"Xiaoyu!Xiaoyu!Where are you?!"

Liao Xueqing held the sugar gourd in one hand, took out one hand to pat the dust on her clothes, looked at the anxious girl outside the alley, waved her hand and shouted:

"I'm here!"

The black-haired girl was covered in bandages, on crutches, and with cold sweat on her forehead, her anxious expression when she saw Liao Yuqing finally eased, and she staggered to her side.

"Really, why are you lost again, we have to come to you every time. Liao Xueqing laughed bitterly.

"I usually go back by myself, and if I'm injured, I'll stay at home and rest," Liao Xueqing handed her the sugar gourd, "Do you want to eat it?"

"Huh, do you have any money on you?" Liao Xueqing was stunned.

"No, it's this kind big sister... Huh?" Liao Yuqing turned around, where was Dior's figure.

Only the half of the pipe remained on the ground, and she thought for a moment before shaking her head.

“... Just now a kind blonde big sister gave it to me. ”

"Blonde, isn't it a monster?" Liao Xueqing was taken aback, "It's all said, there are many monsters in the Forbidden City, and people who aren't black-haired shouldn't talk to them casually." ”

"Yes, yes, yes. Liao Yuqing replied casually.
