Xia Lan didn't have the heart to participate in the conflict between the "subversive fangs" and the empire, so he quietly escaped and left before the army formed a complete encirclement, but according to the black-clothed priest who swore just now, where did the empire dare to tear its face with the "subversive fangs"? Isn't the empire worried about Galbo's reckoning after he gets out of trouble? Or maybe the black-clad priest was telling the truth?

After a cursory thought, he didn't continue to investigate, after all, it was none of his business, and he had no reason to get involved in it and cause trouble for himself. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

However, one thing is certain, during this period of time, Drohichen may be a turbulent dark tide, and there will never be a return to peace.

Soon after returning to the hotel, Xia Lan heard the discussion about this matter, so she had to sigh that the people of the imperial capital were well-informed, and the slightest wind and grass could not hide from their ears and eyes, of course, part of the reason may be attributed to the impact of the continuous heavy rain, when most people have become idle, anything that happens around them can be used as a pastime to talk about, especially when the news of such topics is more likely to cause widespread discussions.

Xia Lan thought that this was a deliberate move by the Empire, if the Empire really wanted to block the news, how could ordinary civilians know about it in the first place, if there was no inside calculation, he would definitely not believe it.

With the passage of time, the conflict between the empire and the "subversive fangs" has intensified, and the situation has basically developed to the point of incompatibility.

Could it be that the "Subverted Fangs" really want to follow in the footsteps of the "Radiant Sanctuary"? It's like black humor when you think about it.

As a qualified spectator, Xia Lan didn't bother to pay attention to this seemingly significant event from beginning to end, no matter who won or lost, it had nothing to do with him, even if there was a period of sharp hostility between him and the two, but time has passed, and now he and the other party no longer have any interests, each other's well water does not violate the river water, unless the other party takes the initiative to come to the door, otherwise he can't make trouble for no reason.

From the Age of the Gods to the New Moon Apocalypse, Elderland has gone through countless glorious eras, but now people can only remember in the historical texts, even if it is the "Radiant Sanctuary" that dominates Eldran for thousands of years, it will not escape in the end, and what is the possibility of "subverting the fangs"? The gods are like this, the country is like this, and history is like this, and the dream of eternal inheritance is a dream after all.

People are forgetful, once the enthusiasm subsides, the mind shifts, the things that have been concerned before are forgotten in the blink of an eye, Xia Lan, who often stays in the hotel lobby to listen to the heated discussions, can be said to be deeply touched, he does not know what factors are affected, now there are fewer and fewer people talking about the conflict between the empire and the "subversive fangs", and the topic of discussion soon jumped to the things that are closely related to the surrounding ones, the most is the never-ending heavy rain outside the house.

Every day, there are accidents of casualties due to the collapse of houses due to heavy rains, and at the same time, the prices in the city are rising sharply and irrepressibly, many poor families are in serious economic difficulties, and the signs of social unrest are increasingly emerging, and the heavy rain interrupts the transportation of the imperial decrees, and the central government gradually loses its understanding and control of various places, and in the long run, the huge empire is likely to face the crisis of falling apart.

In such a bad situation, how can the empire solve it? Unless the rain stops, there will be no solution to these problems.

The frequent appearance of military and police patrolling the streets in the rain shows that the situation in Drochetin is becoming more and more serious, although the empire uses power to temporarily stabilize the law and order in society, but once the spark of turmoil becomes a prairie fire, no one will be able to extinguish this raging flame of terror in the future.

Xia Lan didn't care if Drohichen would become a human purgatory, he only cared if there was something he was looking for in this city, he had been in Drosichen for nearly a month, but whenever it rained heavily, he would go out and wander around, hoping to meet some unusual people or things, because he knew that staying in the hotel and waiting for the rabbit would only lead to nothing.

Unfortunately, he was disappointed.

After all, there are some things that can't be forced.

He had already decided to give himself three more days, and after that three days he would leave the boiling furnace of Drochetzein.

However, fate always likes to play pranks, especially when you are full of hope, and give hope in despair.

On this day, Xia Lan sat idly in the hotel lobby as usual, with a bottle of wine on his table, and this bottle of wine was enough for him to drink for an afternoon, he rarely drank alcohol before, it was nothing more than that alcohol was easy to numb his vigilance nerves, and now, he no longer needed to worry about this problem.

Due to the soaring prices, the hotel business was inevitably affected, and there were only a few guests dining and drinking in the lobby, which was a world away from the noisy scene some time ago, which made Xia Lan hear less and less gossip.

On the table near the window, there are often two familiar faces chatting with local accents, but the topic between them is boring, and others feel that it is not very interesting when they hear two sentences, but these two people talk with relish, and there are strange people and strange things everywhere, and it is not uncommon for one or two more.

Originally, Xia Lan didn't care about the content of the chat between the two, but a woman who was suddenly talking about behind the other party suddenly caught his attention.

"Recently my wife told me something very strange."

"How weird?"

"Hmm—a strange and mysterious woman, to be exact, I know about the Iris neighborhood three blocks away from my house, right?"

"Of course, who in the city doesn't know that the neighborhood is a rich area, and many dignitaries live there."

"I'm going to talk to you about this community...... You and I both know that there are many dignitaries living in the Iris community, and there are many mistresses of big people who live there, and my wife, because she often does some handiwork for the ladies and ladies there, so she often goes in and out of there, she was employed by Mrs. Celine in the first two years, and as a result, she did nearly three months of work there, and the neighbors are familiar with a lot, among which she is most impressed by a lady who lives alone next door, according to my wife's description, this lady is very beautiful and elegant, and her smile is clean and flawless, At first, my wife thought she was the lover of a big man, but later I learned from Mrs. Celine that the lady who lived alone had moved from a distant place some time ago, and I heard that she was a relative, but she had never seen an outsider enter her house, nor had she ever seen this lady go out, and all the food and clothing were taken care of by an old maid......"

"What's weird and mysterious about this? Many lovers who have been abandoned by big names live like this. ”

"The problem is that my wife went to Mrs. Celine's house again after a long time yesterday, and I heard Mrs. Celine say that the lady next door is still living her old life, and has never gone out, has never had a visitor, and has never taken the initiative to communicate with people, if it is you, can you stand this lonely lifestyle? I can't stand it anyway! ”

"That's right, it seems that the lady is a woman with a story."

"Who knows...... But I've heard an even more bizarre rumor. ”

"What rumors? Interesting? ”

"Nonsense! Of course it's interesting, and it's so much fun! Let me tell you, my wife heard Mrs. Celine say that some time last year a daring thief broke into the iris community and was caught stealing, according to the thief's account, he had sneaked into the house of the lady next door, and you know what he saw? ”

"What do you see? Speak up, talk fast! Don't whet people's appetites! ”

"He said he didn't see anything, there was not a single piece of furniture in the house, the floor and the staircase were covered with a thick layer of dust, and it didn't look like it was inhabited at all!"

"Wow—that thief wouldn't be in the wrong room, would he?"

"Impossible! According to the thief's confession, he investigated and learned about the situation of this house and its owner, and planned to rob it by the way when he was stealing, but he didn't rob it, but the person was exposed! ”

"How did he get exposed?"

The thief said that he had gone through the whole house, and not only did no one see it, but he was even horrified to find that the house had not been inhabited for at least three years, so what would happen to the woman who lived here? The thief fled in fright, and in a panic he bumped into the patrolling guards. ”

"Shhh Is the thief's claim true? ”

"It should be fake, when the investigators went to the house to understand the situation, it was the lady who opened the door herself, and invited into the house by the way to entertain her, it was not the deserted scene described by the thief at all, but it was so magnificent that it was not like words, but the thief insisted that the room was a deserted house with no one at all!"

"It's weird to hear you say that!"

"Who knows, anyway, I haven't heard of a thief who doesn't have long eyes ever been to that room again."

……

……

Hearing the content of the chat between the two, Xia Lan felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity, because he had also met such a woman.

Violet, a woman in Cologne that everyone keeps secret.

The woman mysteriously disappeared during the Cologne turmoil, and he forgot about this woman with the outbreak of the holy war, but after all these years, he would hear rumors about a similar her.

He decided to find out for himself what had happened.

Is she or not!

And who the hell is she! Whether it has something to do with what he's after!
