Chapter 33: Cats
The moment the secret door was opened, the sunlight shone obliquely into the secret passage.
The backlit figure made Qin Ran, who was in the underground secret passage, squint.
"Nikelle?"
Although he had already seen the other party's appearance clearly, Qin Ran was still not sure.
After all, in his mind, Ni Carlet was not in the city at the moment.
"Of course it's me!"
"Suspicious little one, come up quickly!"
"Or do you want me to give me more evidence?"
"The first book you read in my library was "The Characteristics of the Nightcrawler", and then you flipped through "The Distribution of Man-Eating Monsters......"
The old woman looked at Qin Ran, who was unmoved, and had to repeat some things that only Qin Ran and she could know.
"Is it okay?"
The old woman who had explained the order in which Qin Ran was reading in the study asked Qin Ran again.
"Hmm!"
Qin Ran nodded and walked up the ladder.
Qin Ran was not surprised by how the old woman knew the order in which he read.
After all, the ghost butler was always by his side while he was reading.
Moreover, with the old woman's ability, it was too simple to 'see' what he was doing.
Wait a minute!
'See'?!
Qin Ran, who thought of something, was stunned.
However, the upward speed did not slow down, and he rolled over to the ground in three or two strokes.
The old woman holding the cat moved her steps to make way for Qin Ran, and asked Qin Ran to put Simmons down.
"Let me see Simmons ......"
"Take some damage, but it won't be fatal, every time."
"What a poor and lucky fellow!"
The old woman carefully examined Simmons, who was still in a semi-comatose state, and couldn't help but shake her head and sigh, and then, her eyes looked at Qin Ran.
Or. To be more precise, behind Qin Ran.
There's someone behind you!
Wilk's accomplices!
Qin Ran reacted immediately.
He didn't turn around like an ordinary person, but rolled straight forward.
Sou!
A cold glow passed against Qin Ran's tumbling body.
The sharp blade and the biting chill it brought made Qin Ran's heart tighten.
Especially when he saw that the attacker was like a chameleon. When he came out of the void, it made Qin Ran's scalp tingle for a while.
That's a level that even the Peerless Level [Stealth] can't do.
Extraordinary?!
Qin Ran guessed.
And the attacker missed the blow, but did not give up, and once again swung his knife at Qin Ran.
The blade appeared in front of Qin Ran almost instantly.
"Meow!"
Just as Qin Ran was about to make a move, a low cat meow sounded in his ears.
The next moment, Qin Ran saw that the cat 'Tiqi' in the old woman's arms appeared on the attacker's spine at some point.
Yellow and white, a little chubby, Tiqi seemed to have no weight at all, hunched on the spine of the knife. It seems that it was not a narrow knife, but its cat nest.
But the attacker, wrapped in a black cloak, used his strength to twitch his weapon when he faced the seemingly weightless, light, fluttering Titch.
But even so, his weapon remained unmoved.
It's like 'fixed' in the air.
That's right, it's 'fixed' in the air.
No matter which direction the attacker twitched the hilt of the knife from up, down, left, right, or right, the knife did not loosen in the slightest.
And when the attacker realizes that something is wrong and wants to let go of the knife. only to find that he could not move himself.
Qin Ran on the side could clearly feel the fear of the attacker.
Even if you can't see the other person's face clearly, the rapid breathing is too obvious.
In fact. Not only the attacker, but Qin Ran could also feel his own rapid breathing.
Powerful!
Far more powerful than he imagined!
There is no earth-shattering momentum, but the understatement is more and more set off this power.
Qin Ran couldn't help but look at Titch.
At this moment, he can no longer think of the other party as a cat.
"Meow!"
Under Qin Ran's gaze, Titch yawned boredly.
The old woman walked slowly.
"Please go back and tell Moreduk that I don't want war with the Daredevil Society. It's just because I have more important things to do, and not to be afraid of him! ”
"So, I want him to come to Black Street 1 and give me a reasonable explanation - why the members of the Daredevil Society attacked my assistant!"
"A week!"
"The deadline I gave him!"
The old woman said in a flat tone.
After the words fell. Titch wagged his tail, and in an instant, the attacker rolled back into the secret passage with the opponent's long knife.
And the secret door was closed.
Tiki jumped back into the old woman's arms out of thin air.
With a different look, the old woman gently stroked Tichy's forehead.
After a while, the old woman looked at Qin Ran again.
There was a hint of appreciation in his eyes.
"2567, you're better than I thought!"
"Being able to defeat Wilk, as well as the previous reaction, is enough to show that you can be on your own!"
The old woman said with a smile.
Facing the old woman's praise, Qin Ran did not get carried away.
On the contrary, the previous idea became clearer.
He asked subconsciously.
"Did you 'see' again?"
"Hmm!"
The old woman nodded.
"In other words, even if I am captured, you will show up in time?"
"Hmm!"
The old woman nodded again.
Looking at the old woman's smile and nodding, Qin Ran couldn't help but rub her temples.
He found that he had been overlooking an important point: the difficulty of the second dungeon.
Wilk's sudden appearance, with his strength and malice, made him concentrate on dealing with the other party, and forgot about it.
For such 'neglect' and 'forgetting', Qin Ran didn't have any more chagrin.
After all, he won the eventual victory.
And, even if he were to keep this in mind, he would probably take a risk when he found an opportunity to overcomplete side quests or make more gains.
But the vigilance he should have reminded him that he was still not calm enough.
"Even in the face of death, be calm!"
"Otherwise, you will only really meet death!"
Qin Ran, who was meditating again in his heart, looked up at the old woman.
"What are we going to do next?"
Qin Ran asked.
"Back to No. 1 Black Street."
"With your foundation, a week is enough time for me to teach you some mystical knowledge!"
"This is the promise I once gave you."
The old woman replied.
Teachings on mystical knowledge!
Suddenly, Qin Ran's heart was on fire.
