"How can the guild in Suzhou be like this......"

Although Suzhou is rich, the façade of the Ranger Guild is almost the same as that of Yuhang, with a small building in silver-green tones and a large signboard with the word "Xia" in red on a white background dyed red under the light of the setting sun.

Different from the simple pattern of three horizontal and four vertical in Yuhang, Suzhou as a whole presents a "hui" ring surrounded by a "mouth" shape, with a total of four rings from the inside to the outside.

As a commercial city, there are a large number of shops in the inner two rings, and other functional facilities and residential areas are basically in the third and fourth rings.

Yiru and Xiyue, who had entered the city in the morning, spent a whole day shopping only temporarily - this was when the sisters were not very interested in rouge, gouache, jewelry, and fine food.

Seeing that the sun was about to set, the red-haired girl remembered to report to the Ranger Guild. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"Hello, we are transferred from Yu Hang,"

The outside of the guild is the same, and the interior furnishings are almost the same, Li Yiru walked to the counter with a familiar car and showed the badge to go through the formalities:

"Coming to investigate the vanished passengers, if there are other tasks that need to be solved, please give me orders."

The language is decent, the attitude is also correct, it would be better if I could not read the cheat sheet of the speech written by Li Xiyue in my hand.

"Well, you are welcome to the Suzhou Ranger Guild,"

Behind the counter is an old man over fifty years old, with white hair and hair, a thin body, and a kind face.

"But there is no commission at the moment, and even your current investigation mission may have to be stopped."

"Huh? Why? ”

Li Yiru looked around strangely, and sure enough, there was not a single mission notice.

"Hehe, sit down and talk slowly,"

The old man walked out of the counter with a teapot, he was probably bored too, and finally two rangers hurriedly grabbed and chatted,

After inviting the sisters to sit down, they made two cups of tea for them, as if they were ready to start from the beginning.

"It is said that Pangu has been ...... since the beginning of the world"

It's too early!

……

The old man's surname is Han, although he is old, but before the sisters came to Suzhou, he was the only ranger here.

The scarcity of rangers is not because the people of Suzhou do not close their doors at night or the roads around them are unobstructed, and the monsters are extinct, but because of the Lin family,

The Lin family has been running the commercial and economic city of Suzhou for many years, and if something happens to the residents, if the residents do not think of the Lin family but the ranger at the first time, its "family" will be in vain.

The two sisters occasionally see when they go shopping, in groups of two, with serious expressions, and people wearing the same straight uniforms, who are the "patrols" organized by the Lin family and the government.

The function of patrol covers all the tasks in and out of the city of the ranger, "ask for help, find patrol" is a familiar sentence of the people of Suzhou,

And the native rangers of Suzhou have only been able to improve their level by dealing with powerful monsters in the wild for a long time.

"In fact, the City Ranger Guild with a family is basically unable to develop,"

Han Lao drank his own tea, and then filled it by himself:

"Recently, someone killed the surrounding monsters, and the remaining rangers have also moved away."

"Who is so boring...... No, who's that powerful? ”

Li Yiru hurriedly changed her words:

"What does this have to do with our mission?"

"It seems that a person named Dugu Sword Saint from Shushan Sect came here to solve the disappearance."

The old man shook his head:

"Powerful is powerful, but a little prejudiced, he thinks that [Confucian scholars, vertical and horizontal commentators, rangers with swords, dependent on the aristocracy for a living, and people of industry and commerce] are all moths of the world."

"We are also accused of putting civilians in danger."

"It's okay, we don't use swords,"

The red-haired girl turned her head to look at her sister:

"Well, twin swords are not swords."

"So, it's not that our mission has been canceled, but that we can't continue the investigation as a ranger?"

Li Xiyue thought,

It's no longer subordinate, but it's a bit of an opposition......

"That's right, but if you have to investigate on your own, you can go to the person in charge of the Lin family,"

"Her patrols are allowed to assist."

Han Lao began to rummage through the address:

"The location of the official residence is ......"

The second ring is in the opposite direction to the Ranger Guild.

"Thank you, we'll come to you for tea after we complete this task~"

Li Yiru walked out of the Ranger Guild with her sister, turned around and waved at Han Lao.

"Hehe......"

Han Lao watched the two little girls leave:

"If my son Zhongxi is still alive, he should be as old as them."

……

Suzhou at night gradually quieted down,

The sun had set, the wind blowing through the streets began to mix with the chill, and the pedestrians hurried one by one.

Some shops have red lanterns indicating that they will be open at night, but it is clearly not suitable to visit other people's homes at this time.

"So, let's find an inn and rest for the night,"

Li Xiyue grabbed her sister who tried to run to the night market:

"I'll visit the Lin family tomorrow."

"Uh-huh......"

As a commercial city, Suzhou is naturally indispensable for inns and inns, but it will be too noisy near the city center, and the guests will inevitably be mixed when it is far away.

In the end, I picked a plain inn not too far from the Ranger Guild.

“……”

"I don't see it, sorry."

“……”

"You're good to go—"

As soon as I stepped into the door of the inn, I heard the shopkeeper talking to a woman, as if she was looking for something.

“……”

The woman turned around and wanted to leave the inn, and took a look at the sisters.

She was dressed in a gray skirt, with large lotus lace on the neck and skirt, straight black hair, her eyes half closed as if she hadn't woken up, and she walked out of the inn after giving a skirt salute to the sisters.

"Let's go to the upper room!"

The red-haired girl began to learn the words of the legendary novel again, and then looked at the back of the woman in gray leaving with a little curiosity:

"Who is that person?"

"Okay-Tianzi No. 5 room-"

The shopkeeper didn't care about the strange hair color of the memory, and sure enough, the people in the big city were well-informed:

"Sister Xian came to Suzhou for the first time, that 'Mo Yu' is very famous here as the first maid of the Lin family."

"The Lin family?"

Li Xiyue took out the money to pay the bill and took the door key:

"Is she looking for Miss Qiao?"

Syllable! The shopkeeper gave her a thumbs up:

"The girl has good eyesight, the current head of the Lin family likes to patrol around the city, and once she forgets the time, she will be responsible for finding it."

Inspection?

The black-haired girl poked her sister and handed her the key, and continued to talk to the shopkeeper:

"So she is very diligent and loves the people?"

"If you insist on saying it...... true"

The shopkeeper suddenly lowered his voice:

"-Actually, I think she's just playful haha."

At this time, a few more guests came to stay at the hotel, and the shopkeeper bowed his hand to her apologetically and went to greet her.

"I'm kind of wondering what kind of person she is,"

Li Xiyue looked around and dragged away her sister, who was looking intently at the jugglers in the inn:

"There's a lot to do tomorrow, go back to your room and rest."
