My name is Akatosh,

Don't let me open three times, hey!

Helmet City, Villa Halim.

As one of the many meeting places for "shawl blondes", it is often visited by noblewomen and girls with bright blonde hair, so the act of pushing the door in a small way is ignored by the nearby patrolling guards—even if they think that a certain woman is eye-catching, they have to consider whether the other party is a noble family member who lives in a simple place, and with the strength of the Broken Shield family, it is naturally impossible for any unsightly thieves to come to patronize.

"We didn't catch 'Lin Wei', he ran away with the [Star of Azura], but we have already taken this task from Ms. Azula, so he will not trouble you." After walking into the living room of the villa, Xiao Fu saw Yoti Kuhai spinning around, in order to prevent her from rushing over directly to ask if there was something, she immediately said the most important step in advance.

Well...... From her expression and face, you can clearly see what it means to be surprised and happy, surprised, and not surprised.

"That'...... The jewelry? After the surprise, Yoti began to look up and down, and his face began to turn pale again: "Is it your companion named Amir?" ”

“…… I am here. With a click, Emile took a crisp bite of the honey feast as he appeared on a chair.

Xiao Fu looked at Yoti, who began to have water in his eyes, and made a helpless expression.

"Whoa-" Yotty cried, "Sister Fliga is going to eat me-"

"Huh? Long time no see, is there an extra you on Friega's recipe? Xiao Fuxing laughed.

"Woooooooooo......oo

"Hehe, haven't you seen it yet? It's a little annoying because you played with her when you first met and deliberately scared you. A woman's voice, although not in a high tone and in a relatively gentle tone, gave people a very confident voice.

Xiao Fu turned around and saw Friga Broken Shield, who had not seen him for several years, the girl who had to grit her teeth to resist the pressure because of the identity of the eldest daughter of the family, although she was strong, she could still feel that the girl who was strong on the outside was gone, at this time her whole body exuded a confident aura, and her face that was once slightly green has also become a very aggressive and beautiful appearance, although she is wearing a skirt made of exquisite material, there are medium-length pants that are easy to move underneath, and a strange long sword with a slight arc is pinned to her waist.

"Miss Friega—" "Hey! "Xiao Fu, who was wearing the leather armor of the master of the Thieves' Guild, planned to symbolically perform a skirt salute, but was directly hugged by the other party.

Although he didn't plan to hide, it was another matter to not be able to hide at all, and Xiao Fu looked at this friend he hadn't seen for a long time with a slightly sharp gaze.

"Tsk, you haven't grown up at all." "Don't be verbose, you cow."

The interaction between Xiao Fu and Fliga surprised Joti so much that he forgot to cry.

"Don't make a fuss, return those jewels to Yoti, that place was cleaned so clean, how could it be that 'Lin Wei' did it?" Fliga let go of her annoyance and patted her on the shoulder.

"Well, little Yoti gets worse and less fun the older she gets," he said, turning to the girl who was picking up a green apple, "Amir?" You can keep a few you like without having to return them to her. ”

“…… I don't like either. As he spoke, a thick black mist appeared out of thin air in the conference room, which slowly fell to the floor and dissipated instantly, and then a large number of neatly stacked jewelry appeared where it landed.

"Wow!" Jotti, the only one in the room who was interested in them, immediately pounced, and Xiao Fu and Friga had already begun to discuss the next step of cooperation.

"So, we, the 'Shawl Blondes', will provide shelter for the Thieves' Guild's operations in Windhelm - you really don't plan to return?" Friega said.

"Heh, you know, after Wu ...... 'that person' raised the flag of rebellion, there was no room for reconciliation between us," Xiao Fu shook his head slightly: "I'm a little annoyance now, and it's just a little annoyance." ”

"Well, if you insist," Fliga paused, changing the subject, "A mage friend of mine may know something about the escape method of that 'Lin Wei', she is a 'Shino Scholar' who has spent a long time in the mage academy in Winterhold, although I don't know if she is still there, but you and your companions can go to her and try it." ”

"Name?"

"Jeanne, Jeanne Darke."

——19：36——

Rift City, the Black Thorn Family Villa.

"You've handled the matter of Sabjon well," Marven Blackthorn was checking the color of her long nails against the bright candle flame, "There's no one who can provoke the Blackbrand family without paying a price." ”

The current head of the Black Thorn Family looked to be only about thirty years old, with almost no wrinkles on her face, and the luxurious aristocratic dress on her body made her barely be praised as "bright and moving".

It's just that her eldest son, Heiming Black Thorn, who is obviously over thirty and never leaves, and her younger son, Sippy Black Thorn, who is about twenty and always troublesome, have made the lower limit of outsiders' guessing about her age invisibly raised a lot.

Palasos didn't know if she knew it was the bard she had encouraged Bland-Shea to take away, but since she didn't mention it, she pretended not to know.

"It's an honor to serve you, ma'am," Captain Sharp-Eyed Eagle, who had seen many royal and noble women, naturally had nothing to fright in the face of an ordinary nobleman in Skyrim Province: "It's just that no one knows that he was unlucky because he offended Black Thorn." ”

"It doesn't matter the cause of a single incident, Mr. Parry," Marven continued to stare at her fingernails, "It is important to maintain the fact that 'all those and forces who have offended the Black Thorn will be unlucky'. ”

It was tiring to talk to a scheming man, and Palacus couldn't be sure if Marven knew if the thieves' guild was not happy with the status quo of being controlled, and maybe she was just habitually threatening.

In short, memorize and relay all these words, and give those guild masters a headache at that time.

If it weren't for the fear of being beaten by Sapphire equally, Palacos also wanted to express his thoughts about Princess Emilia - although it was not a subjective factor, he did let the princess act on her own again, and the eldest sister was afraid that she would use her giant sword to make a mural on the wall.

"Enemies will meet misfortunes, and our friends will naturally be helped." Marven put down her hand and took a letter from the hand of Heim Ying beside her and unfolded it.

"A friend of the Black Thorns, a baron who lives in Solitary City, has asked us for help," she said, scanning the contents of the letter, picking through the contents of the letter, "a very profitable captain has rejected his request for investment, so he has decided to use some means to compel him to agree. ”

It's Ericul's guy! It must be him! After the princess left, he wanted to do something again, right?

"However, since the people or organizations near Dugu City that can do such things are stared at by the sharp-eyed eagle and have no way to do it, and he can't hold the 'Dark Ritual' in the city," Parasos noticed that Marven's voice paused slightly, and raised an eyebrow, "So he sent a messenger to ask the Black Thorns for help." ”

"So, what do you want me to do?" Palasos put on an obedient expression.

"Look, I just like Mr. Parry, talk less, do more." Marwen said to Heimying, and the Nord man nodded with a dry smile.

"The people of the Thieves' Guild must have been blacklisted by the Sharp-Eyed Hawks, so they can't be sent on this operation," Marven said, "Unlike you, as an adventurer, Baron of Rift City, and never joined the Stormcloak, they have no reason to target you at all." ”

One, there wasn't that kind of list, and second, they had good reason to pack up 'Mr. Parry' - if I really went back without any cover-up, Palashos would be tempted to pout.

"I'll give you the name of the ship, the name of the captain, and most importantly, the 'stolen goods'," Marwen took a potion bag commonly used by alchemists from Heiming's hand: "This is the 'Blue Balmora' that is more than ten times more powerful than Skuma, and it has not yet been put on the market, even if it is caught, it will not be found if it is not checked by a senior alchemist, but as long as it appears in the captain's warehouse, our noble friend will naturally have a way to get what he wants." ”

So the previous Scuma case really had her behind it? Palashos put on a look of tangle and fear.

The executor has no idea which nobleman he is working for, even if he fails, it will have no effect, and the enforcer of Dugu City is also beyond the reach of the Black Thorn Family in Rift City, even if this executor wants to betray and report to the City Lord of Rift City, there is no key evidence - that thing is not on the market yet, and the best alchemist in Rift City himself has an apprentice of the Black Thorn Family.

Palasos took the package with a confused expression, but his hand suddenly sank, and there was a clanging sound of gold coins colliding inside, and according to experience, there were at least a thousand.

"Since that captain is very profitable, he naturally won't wait on the dock, this money is for you to live in Dugu City and get through contacts before you find the opportunity, except to find out the identity of the employer, you can do whatever you want." Marwen was satisfied to see the shocked and moved look of Parasos before she smiled.

If he is really an adventurer who became a baron by luck, I am afraid that he will obey Ma Wenyan from now on...... These things that require brainstorming are really not suitable for you.

Marven also seemed to be very satisfied with her grace and power, and after a few casual conversations, she sent "Baron Parry" away.

Anyway, according to your current status, go and report to the guild first, and then go out to find the princess.
