"Looks like you're still scared, sir. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"

The dim light not only stretched the shadows of all present, but also blurred the line between them and the dim ground, and the wind was still strong at the top of the mountain, and the shadows on the ground seemed to merge with them—the shadows were indeed about to merge with each other, but their intermingling ceased for a moment by the order of an old man.

The old man's face was as dim as the sky at this time.

"You're the one who didn't figure it out, lad." He looked at the man who was still sitting on the ground without fear, and then looked at the little girl next to him: "Although I don't know why you have embarked on this desperate road, since you have reached this point, don't expect ......"

"I'll let you go."

"You mean to say that no matter how much we try to argue, it won't work, will you?" Duan Qing smiled: "Then why are you talking so ......much nonsense?"

"Come on! Kill me, and thousands of them! ”

The righteous and awe-inspiring expression could not change the old man's attitude towards him, on the contrary, his face became more gloomy. His withered hand bobbed back and forth in the gale, and at last he crumpled the politeness of his hand a lot.

He ...... What was said? ”

"This is the mayor I know." Duan Qing raised his head: "Be cautious and thoughtful, even if there is even the slightest possibility, you will not make a move easily...... If we die here and something worse happens, ......"

"Something is wrong, is it?"

The old man's hand clenched even tighter.

"Looks like we can talk." Seeing the old man's face that was about to distort, Duan Qing knew that the other party's patience was about to reach the bottom line: "Haven't you ever doubted who we are looking for these days?" ”

"You can test it first...... My patience. ”

"Okay, okay, I'll say that's it, Yaschi entrusted Nina to us before she died, and then ...... Let's be wary of a man named Laska. Looking at the other party's ever-changing expression, Duan Qing said self-deprecatingly: "At first, we thought that Laskar was sacred, but then we found out that ......"

"That's you."

"So from the very beginning, we had a distrustful attitude towards you, which is why we worked so hard to find someone, so when you said that at the Wind Dance Plaza, we didn't feel the slightest surprise."

"Including you...... When you came to me that night? ”

"Oh, I didn't know it then." Duan Qing replied: "But judging from your performance at that time, I think the news you got from me should also be first-hand, so you showed the opposite emotions of surprise and stability - now that you think about it, you should also start from that time to send us adventurers into the fire pit...... Ha, it's ironic, the code name Cuong went to you, maybe it's just icing on the cake. ”

"To be honest, judging from the first time we met, I still have a pretty good impression of you, Mayor, but thinking about Nina's reaction at that time, it was obviously more than the level of disgust with ordinary strangers...... It seems that your feud with Yasqi has been going on for a long time, and even a child like Little Nina who doesn't know anything about the world knows about it......"

"That's why I say she's a descendant of sinners, boy." The old man interrupted Duan Qing's words.

"Oh? Are you sure you're not afraid that she will know something she shouldn't know and then accidentally say it to others? Duan Qing blinked: "If she wasn't a little girl who didn't like to talk by nature, you must have done it a long time ago, right?" ”

The old man's eyes narrowed again.

"Why, haven't you heard her?" As if guessing the other party's thoughts, Duan Qing smiled and touched the head of the little girl next to him: "So the person you sent ...... will be the first to rummage through the things in her house, instead of ...... Trouble with her? ”

"Although it's only for a short time, but now I want to ......" Duan Qing propped up his chin with his fingers: "At that time, Nina's house did not look like any paper items were gone, even the storybooks I bought for Nina were ......"

"It seems that you have a deep preconception about me, but that's not what we're talking about." The old man's voice seemed to be speaking faster, a sign that he was about to lose his patience: "Let's go back to the previous topic. ”

"That's what you want to know the most, right?"

"Let's talk about it." Ignoring Duan Qing's rhetorical question, Rama asked directly, "Who does he want you to find...... Who is it. ”

"Feeney."

To the surprise of Mengzhu next to him, Duan Qing said the name very simply.

As if to match this atmosphere, the mountain wind that had always been strong slowly stopped, and under Duan Qing's observant gaze, the old man's head slowly lowered, as if he was thinking and reminiscing in a temporary tranquility. The guards in the rear didn't make a sound, and Duan Qing didn't mean to disturb the old man, until the sun was about to set and the magic lights around the library behind Duan Qing were about to turn on automatically, that the old man broke away from the silence and shook his head to look at the other party.

"I ...... Haven't heard the name. ”

"It's a shame." Duan Qing waved his hand and said, "I thought you would know about this ......"

"We searched for people who we didn't find for days."

"It seems that you have been working very hard these days to fulfill Yaschi's legacy." The old man said, "Is the key to this...... Is it on this guy named Finney? ”

"Yes, that's what Yaschi said on his deathbed...... The most critical part. Duan Qing did not shy away from saying all of this: "A few days ago, there were no more than five people in Fenghua Town who knew this name. But you should know a lot by now, because ...... We've been looking. ”

"So...... You guys really didn't find it...... Is it? ”

"Oh, we're not going to be like you." Ignoring the frowning brows on the old man's face, Duan Qing continued to reveal his bottom without any vigilance: "We really haven't found it, even the news that Richard wants to send Nina out, we just found out...... By the way, forgot to ask, how did you find out about this? ”

"Whatever you want." The old man said.

"Sigh ......" knew the other party's attitude, Duan Qing no longer dwelled on this issue: "We don't dare to rely on anyone, so we have to quietly inquire in Fenghua Town by ourselves, but unfortunately there are only four of us, so we really can't find out...... And then something like this happened. I thought you, the omniscient adults, would solve the answer to this puzzle for us...... It's really disappointing. ”

"A lot of people have fake names." The old man explained quite kindly at this time: "For example, for me, for example, Yasqi, for example...... Anyway, this Finney may just be a pseudonym, just look it up......"

"That's right! That's what Wiesel said at the time, so I didn't dare to let him come looking for it. Duan Qing praised loudly: "Those of you who have much more resources than us adventurers, if you step in, you will definitely know faster than we know, so I'm afraid ......"

"Afraid of what?"

"I'm afraid that you'll find that person first, I'm afraid you're going to do us badly, I'm afraid...... Roll little Nina in. ”

Looking at the waning sunset in the distance, Duan Qing sighed helplessly: "It's a pity that it ended up like this." ”

"Fate is so fickle." The old man followed, "It's a pity, but it seems ...... You still lose your last chip. ”

"Now, as a loser in battles and negotiations, do you have anything else to say?"

"Of course there is something to say." Duan Qing said: "My logic is not finished yet. ”

"It's almost time for dinner, boy." The old man put his top hat on his head: "So you still have time for the last word." ”

"Okay." Duan Qing nodded in agreement: "Actually, this sentence is very simple. ”

"The last words, the names, the whole thing we are concerned about, in fact, started with Yaschi - this is what everyone thinks, and it is the source of the matter. But only we are different, we ...... It started with little Nina. ”

"This is what Mengzhu reminded me." Looking at the little girl in the purple burqa with tears in her eyes, Duan Qing smiled and shook her head: "She once said that if it weren't for Nina, who would care about this big thing......"

"I'll admit it, you're loving." The old man raised his hand again.

"We've searched almost the whole town for this purpose, and even after you asked, we still don't know who this Finney is, where he's hiding...... Oh, and trust me, if you were me now, you'd be curious about the subject too. ”

"We do, though, have one of the most deserving people who haven't asked."

The old man looked quietly ahead, and Duan Qing, who had turned his back to his hand, looked up at the sky.

"Now looking back and thinking about it, how Yaschi felt before he died...... What should it look like? ”

"Those few words he said seemed to have come true, and even when we came back, little Nina was almost poisoned by you...... Then the person he asked us to find should not be so difficult to find. ”

Ignoring the increasingly murderous mayor in front of him, Duan Qing looked at the little girl beside him: "Did you say, little Nina?" ”

"If it weren't for that series of things, I should have asked you this question a long time ago......"

Rama's eyes lit up.

"Do you know who Finney is?"

It was as if it was stuck in the viscous air, the old man's thin arm still did not fall, and in the solidified atmosphere, the little girl who was in the focus of her gaze, with her two big crystal eyes, looked at the man in front of her fixedly, and blinked in the bated breath of everyone.

She lowered her head, then ...... handed the doll in his hand to Duan Qing.

"Do it!"

Time seemed to start flowing again, and at the same time as the old man's arm suddenly swung down, Duan Qing also jumped up from the ground and held his sword in front of Nina: "What are you going to do!" ”

"The three of them are criminals suspected of stealing grain, arrest them, life or death!"

"Rama is the biggest liar in Windflower! Everything he says is a lie! Illusion! We can now prove his guilt, but he wants to destroy it! ”

Like a powder keg that has suddenly been ignited, the originally peaceful and harmonious negotiation scene instantly becomes tense. The old man in the top hat quickly retreated in the roar, allowing the other guards to protect him, and the other side on the other side was much thinner in comparison—except for the little girl who retreated to the gate of the dome building with Nina in her arms, the combat strength on this side seemed to be only Duan Qing alone.

However, none of the guards present dared to underestimate this opponent.

"Don't even come! I'm going to do it again! ”

"What are you afraid of? Hurry up! He's only one man! ”

The guards in the front row moved their feet to the sound of the clashing of armor, making a small noise on the bluestone floor, and then quickly covered by the sound of the wind. In the dimly lit square, the soldiers who had experienced this sudden and absurd battle did not have the courage to rush forward like this—perhaps their rush would doom the other party, but the guards in the front row could not pat their chests and promise that they would survive.

Only Rama had the guts to shout and curse at the other party.

"Humble adventurer! You're trying to fight against the power of Windflower Town! You are contempt for my authority, for the rule of the principality! ”

"The rule of the principality and you are not two sides of the same coin! Why, do you dare to refute it? Have the ability to give me a chance to show Finney to everyone......"

"Ridiculous! Monkey business! I can't stand your provocations again and again! From the very beginning of the conversation, you have not the slightest intention of surrendering, who do you think you are deceiving, who are you playing? ”

"That's you, old man! I can't fool you no matter how much I can, you old fox, the whole Fenghua Town may have let you deceive you for more than ten years! And most importantly...... You actually want to bully Nina! ”

"Hey, your uncle's image is getting weirder and weird......" Mengzhu in the back muttered quietly.

"Less nonsense, don't interject...... Drink! ”

In the dim light, the dazzling sword light suddenly lit up and went out immediately, but in front of the feet of those guards in the front row, a ravine drawn by the slash stretched shallowly from left to right, in front of Duan Qing—they wanted to take advantage of the gap between the other party and talk, but they almost lost their lives.

"Whew, whew...... Hey. Duan Qing, the initiator, gasped hard, and then wiped the sweat on his forehead with his left hand holding the sword: "Sneak attack is not a knight's style......

"You guys! From both sides! Seeing this, the old man in the rear jumped to his feet and shouted: "Fence up!" I don't believe ......."

"So many people will be afraid of him alone!"

"A smile can last for a minute, how can I last for five seconds......" Seeing that more and more people were bold, Duan Qing also took two steps back, until his heel touched the steps in front of the library, and then he suddenly straightened up and put the short sword across his chest: "But I won't be afraid of you either!" ”

"Come on!"

The air was compressing, the crowd was crowding, and a roar erupted from nowhere, and the human wall made of steel armor pressed towards the hut like a tsunami landslide, and the black pressure wrapped in various emotions made people feel as if they were facing the whole world.

The whole sky darkened - and the sun had finally set.
