Chapter 61: Who Is She?
In two or three sentences, the killers were all killed by the uninvited guests in front of them, no exclamations, no screams, everything was done quietly. Even the several spirit bundles that penetrated the killer leader, the strength was just right, and there was no excess spirit seed, and as soon as the person fell, the technique was lost.
A killer capable of taking out a killer? Such a word suddenly popped up in Su Mu's mind.
From the bottom to the top, he was dressed in purple-black nocturnal tights, with a short cloak on his shoulders and a hood on his head, and the mask under the hood tightly covered his face. Because it was late at night, it was dim, and it was good to be able to see the outline and dress clearly, but the slight bulge on the chest made Su Mu realize that this was a woman.
The unknown woman glanced at Su Mu a few more times, and then stepped on the wall to reach the top of the building in a few steps, her movements were light and fast. Su Mu wanted to say "thank you", but it seemed that there was no chance.
As soon as the person left, the sound of rapid running followed, and as soon as Su Mu raised his head, Claudia and Qinia appeared not far in front of him one after the other.
"Su Mu! Hurt? As soon as Claudia came over, she squatted down, grabbed Su Mu's arm, and crossed her head to see if there was any injury.
Su Mu shook his head, slowly stood up, and pointed to the blood on the Antya short sword, "I'm fine, there are a few guys here who I stabbed to death." It was a woman who rescued me in time, otherwise I would have been knocked unconscious and dragged away now. ”
"I'm so sorry! I was careless! Claudia blamed herself, if Su Muzhen was arrested, she would not be able to explain to Wang Li. Since that lady entrusted her son to her from the bottom of her heart, she should use her life to protect Su Mu's safety, which is also her personal creed.
"It's okay, you can't be blamed for that." Su Mu patted the dust on his body and prepared to continue his journey. "Let's go, I've got something new to tell you."
For the rest of the journey, the three were more cautious, they stuck to the house, leaned against the wall, and every time they came to a spacious place, they would confirm that it was safe before continuing on the road. On the way, Su Mu told Claudia and Qinia what he had just seen.
"They're killers sent by Suren? How did he know you were here? Kinia was a little surprised, she had been hiding her whereabouts for the past few days, and she would not be discovered if she reasoned.
"I'm not surprised by this, as long as I go out, I can be discovered. You can also feel that these people are professional killers, but they are not as strong as Claudia, and they are not very good at psychics. Suren must have spent a lot of money to hire this killer group, and he must have caught me. He must have been in a hurry. Su Mu said.
As soon as Su Mu said this, Qi Niya thought of the attempts of those black-robed alien races behind Su Lun, and if she caught Su Mu, she would be able to know the whereabouts of the compass. Ripley said in Jenny's Rose Square that he couldn't find the compass and tore his face with Marga, indicating that Margara had put a lot of pressure on them. It is likely that Su Lun was forced to hire a killer to arrest Su Mu.
The compass is the secret agreed between Qinia and Su Mu, because Claudia was present, Qinia did not say her analysis, she was going to find a time to communicate with Su Mu again. However, she has a lot of questions about the unknown woman in the purple night walker.
"There are few people who know your whereabouts now, and they want to kill you and arrest you more than they want to save you, why does this unknown woman want to save you?"
"How do I know, our family is a businessman, but we don't know any assassin killer organization, those people in the black street are more spy and intelligence dealers, and they can kill so many killers in one breath without a word, and that person shocked me at the time. But..."
"But what?"
"But I did feel a kind of affection from her, how to say, it should be said to be a kind of cordial atmosphere, there is no basis, just a simple feeling." Su Mu didn't have much time to observe the other party at that time, and as soon as he had some outlines of his appearance, the unknown woman disappeared from the wall, but the feeling of déjà vu was not false at all, so that he didn't feel any sense of distance, and he didn't feel murderous from her.
Claudia then turned around, and she interjected, "I think she's trying to hide something." Now that North Star City is surrounded by storms, no fool will save the Su family openly. ”
"Hmm..." Qinia and Su Mu nodded almost at the same time, and touched their chins, falling into the thought of the unknown woman.
Carefully sailing the 10,000-year-old ship, the three of them walked cautiously and smoothly for a long time, without encountering any sneaky people, nor were they attacked by hidden arrows. After stepping through the shadows of the houses, a mansion about ten meters high appeared in front of everyone's eyes, and under the moonlight, the pointed towers on both sides of the building were particularly conspicuous, like a unique aristocratic small castle.
As early as when the laurel tree met, Alec told Su Mu Reni's residence, and Su Mu was also the first time to see such a magnificent house, and the restrained and reserved Su family mansion were completely two styles.
"This Miss Renee has a pretty good family! Young Master Su, when are you going to marry someone? ”
Su Mu glanced at Qinia, didn't pay much attention to her words, and walked straight to the door. The door was locked, Su Mu grabbed the iron bar in the gap above the door, jumped hard, and jumped over. If he had been, he might have wanted not to disturb others.
"Hehe, Chenia, you're jealous." Claudia tilted her head and winked at Chenia, who was also a woman, and she could see that Qinia had a competitive psychology with Renee.
"Which... How's that! A rush of enthusiasm rushed to her face, and she tried to explain something, but everyone knew that explanation was a cover-up. Her red appearance is very cute, jealous and cute.
Su Mu knocked on the front door a few times, and it didn't take long for the door to slowly open, and a white-haired old housekeeper walked out. The old housekeeper was dressed very gentlemanly, and the way he greeted Su Mu was also personable, he crossed half of his body, leaned slightly, and then nodded politely. However, his eyes were not so friendly when he looked at Su Mu, and in his torch-like gaze, it was like a wolf examining its prey.
Su Mu's recent appearance has long been far from that young master of the Su family, to put it more vividly, similar to those grizzled beggars, but he is dressed more neatly, without bare feet and no shoes.
In the midst of the star-to-eye confrontation, Kinia stepped forward, knowing what the other party cared about. Because she didn't wear a lady's dress, she changed to a different way of saluting - one hand in front, one hand behind, her left leg backward in a beautiful curve counterclockwise, followed by a slight bend of the leg, the body forward, cherished to express her intention. "Sir, we have something important to tell Miss Renee."
"Well, it seems that there are still cultured people who are better to deal with." The white-haired old man turned around and walked to the hall with an expressionless face, and then said, "I'm glad I'm lucky, Miss hasn't slept yet, otherwise I wouldn't have let you in." ”
Under the faint yellow light, Su Mu and they walked into the huge hall, three lily-shaped multiple chandeliers hung in the center, most of the furniture in the hall was made of ancient paulownia wood, and there were rows of wine racks and potted flowers and plants everywhere, these were neatly arranged, simple and atmospheric, and the air could also make people smell a faint fragrance from time to time, which all showed the elegant taste of the owner.
The old housekeeper asked Su Mu to stay with them, and walked up the surrounding stairs next to them.
A moment later, Renee stepped down, dressed in a long white dress like a pure lily. She saw Su Mu, three steps and two steps, and sped up, if she could come over so late, there must be something important to discuss. Behind her was Demps, the white-haired old butler.
When Renee came to Su Mu, Su Mu was a little stunned, the impression of Renee should be bouncing and eccentric, changing into the dress in front of him, he felt that he was looking for the wrong person.
Not only him, but Qinia seemed a little uneasy, originally thought that she was just a young lady from a rich family, nothing unusual. As a result, you have to have a figure, you have to look good, and your short blonde hair shines brightly against the light. This reminded Kinia of the aristocratic ladies of the imperial capital of Farah, who were extremely intellectual.
"Hmm, is there anything strange on my face?" Renee looked at Su Mu with a bunch of question marks on her face.
Claudia naturally understood the situation, covered her mouth and laughed, Su Mu came back to her senses and said a little embarrassedly: "Ah, you are very beautiful today, I can't even recognize it." ”
"Poof, each other, I don't recognize you like this, Sue. Few. Father. Before the words fell, Renee took Su Mu's hand and walked towards the spacious reception area, and with a gesture, Su Mu's familiar lively Renee returned.
"Really, is this method of seducing men popular now, do I have to study it, going out on adventures for too long and being eliminated by the times?" Chenia muttered so quietly that only she could hear it.
"Smack!" Claudia gently knocked on Chenia's head, "Miss, don't think about it, I'll still vote for you." It's important to get down to business! As soon as she strained her hands, Kinia was pushed forward.
After a few words of greeting, Su Mu told Renee about the changes in the past few days, listening to Su Mu's words, Renee's eyes rolled slightly, and after hearing the key information, she would exchange glances with the old butler Demps, as if confirming something.
"Archbishop Haino and Ripley's meeting, as well as Suren's killer, there is an amazing amount of information behind this, and Suren can put it aside for a while. If Ripley really wants to kill Heino, then saving him will be a great opportunity for us to use. In a few days, the Inquisition will arrive, and Inquisitor Talia will love the gift. Renee said.
Su Mu was hesitating whether to tell the clues left by Su Cheng, time was pressing, and if he could meet Wendell, he would be able to know what his father had told him earlier. In order to avoid leaking the compass as much as possible, he embellished it a little and said the matter: "According to the internal information of the Sheriff's Bureau obtained by Alec, my father once said a few words to Director Wendell, and if I can meet Wendell, I can know what my father said." ”
"Now that the wind is tight, it's inconvenient for you to go and see him, but it can create an opportunity for you." Renee's eyes sparkled with an idea, and a plan had been made.
Su Mu also thought of something from this, "The opportunity you are talking about, is it the banquet in a few days?" He looked at the other two, and Chenia and Claudia followed suit, giving them promising glances.
"Hehe, your news is also very bright, it is indeed that banquet, Ripley has invited many people, including the consuls, the treasurer, and the justice, and Wendell is naturally on the list."
"So, how do I get in touch with him? Gotta get in there, right? ”
Renee didn't answer, she was deliberately silent for a few seconds, just responded to Su Mu with a simple smile, until Su Mu spread her hand forward, as if to say, "Okay, Miss, don't sell it." ”
"It's very simple, I'll get you an invitation, and then become my dance partner, and you can go in."
