When Mu Yan came to Mika's House, it hadn't opened yet, and the sign "Temporarily closed" was hanging on the crystal window, giving him the illusion of returning to the morning star in a trance.

In my memory, Morningstar has a coffee house with the same name as the Warrior's House, called "Milk Love", which is also this style of dressing, and its owner is named Marcus, one of the most famous aristocratic poets of Morningstar.

It is said that after the player consumes a certain amount of milk love, he can also hear some gossip information from the waiter, such as the countess who secretly came here in the middle of the night, and the occasional strange gasp sound in the storage room behind the kitchen, etc., which set off a craze of "counting how many hats Marcus sent out" at that time.

Mu Yan was naturally not interested in these, but he couldn't stand Principal Huaien's high interest. This guy not only collects, but also secretly verifies in the name of visiting, which can be said to be quite a bad taste.

……

After knocking on the door, a somewhat familiar dwarf ran out of the back room with his head bowed.

"Don't you even look at the signs? It's all ......"

The dwarf stopped halfway through swearing.

"Hello." Mu Yan didn't see his appearance clearly, and bowed slightly and said, "I'm looking for Mika......"

When he raised his head, he was also stunned.

Isn't that the guy named Jerry? How could he be in Mika's shop, still wearing clean white overalls? Aren't he and the Grey Hat thief named Tom?

Mu Yan suddenly became vigilant.

Could it be that the three of them are in a group?

Jerry was also confused, this is really a narrow road, and it is so unlucky to find such a commission that a mercenary is unwilling to do, and meet this guy...... It took him and Tom a night to find out that some of their memories were inexplicably missing, and they also lost their jobs because of the failed commission.

"Jerry, what about you? How about opening a door—"

Tom's voice came from inside, and it stopped abruptly.

The atmosphere suddenly froze, none of the three of them wanted to speak first, you look at me and I look at you, eyes collide in the air, blooming sparks, each cluster is an endless story.

Keywords such as "Grey Hat", "Soul Grabber", "Tracking", and "Commission" are all good to use alone, not to mention that they are still in full swing.

"Do we know each other?" After a short period of stunnedness, Mu Yan pretended to be confused.

Jerry stared at him, not sure how to answer.

At this time, a mellow voice came.

"Mr. Mu Yan?"

The manager of Mika came from behind, followed by Sweet.

"Oh, Mr. Mika." Mu Yan's attitude towards him was also subtle. "Didn't bother you, did you?"

"It's okay, come in and sit." Mika greeted warmly, glancing disappetly at the two newly recruited buddies.

"Mr. Jerry, Mr. Tom, should you both show up in the workshop now?"

"As you wish, Mr. Mika."

Jerry withdrew his gaze that was about to be nailed to Mu Yan's body, and scurried into the back room with his hands and feet, where the two of them prepared spices.

"Mr. Mika's new buddy is pretty athletic." Mu Yan smiled.

He noticed that things didn't seem to be what he had made up for in his head, at least Mika treated Jerry with the same arrogance as he did with a normal employee, and only the latter was nervous, and the former looked like he was normal.

"The main thing is that the nose is good, and the rest looks okay." Mika chimed in: "The fishing season is approaching, and many people have gone to Port Geoor to try their luck, and they have to go to the mercenary union to issue a commission to recruit two guys. ”

"Mercenary Guild?"

"That's right, I wanted to go to the front desk named Uno, but who knew he quit." Mika shrugged, "That kid has only been to the store once, but I'm pretty sure he's in this business." ”

Mu Yan looked at the other party's figure, recalled Uno's physique, and felt that he had a reason to think so.

Probably this is the legendary "tiger in the heart but sniffing roses", rough on the outside but very gentle on the inside?

After the three of them took their seats, Sweet couldn't stand the polite greetings between the two for a long time, and went straight to the point.

"Boy, what did Lord Glazer tell you to do?"

She stood up, propped up the table, and glared at Mu Yan angrily.

This expression may be more convincing on Mika, but it is a bit coquettish on her.

Seeing her face, Mu Yan's mind naturally came to mind the old man's teachings before leaving......

"Sweet's child is a girl who likes to fantasize, and if it weren't for Mika taking care of her, I don't know how she would have survived in Heru...... Although there were no bloody 'knights' in this place, there were indeed many romantic histories full of erotic descriptions, and she may have seen too much of these things, especially hating the savage and rude Hostids, but she had a special affection for her father from the East, who was infatuated with his temperament and disgusted with his behavior on the other. ”

Although Glazer didn't say it explicitly, Mu Yan still felt that the old man had noticed something early on: Sweete was very infatuated with him.

For he found a hint of ostentation in the old man's rather smug eyebrows.

This is definitely not to doubt his fidelity to love - this is probably a common problem of men.

So Mu Yan had a countermeasure.

"Miss Sweet." His expression furnished as usual, "I have come here for two things, the first is to bring Mr. Glazer's greetings to the three, especially you, Miss Sweet. ”

"Huh?"

Sweet was visibly stunned, and then a hint of crimson appeared on her face, and her originally domineering attitude softened a little.

"Lord Glazer, he...... What did he say? ”

"He asked me, 'Have you seen Søvie, is she still as beautiful as she used to be,' and I replied, 'I don't know how beautiful Miss Sylvest used to be, but she is still radiant.'"

"The adult seemed to be very happy, and he asked again, 'Then she still likes sweets so much', and I replied, 'I don't know much about that, but she has a great figure', please forgive me for being offended......"

"Tell me, say it, what else did I say, my lord?" Sweet's face flushed, unconcerned by his words.

Mu Yan continued: "Then the adult sighed and said, 'It's great that she hasn't changed after so long', and I was a little puzzled by this sentence, and then he said, 'In a place like Hosdi, loyalty is the most meaningless thing, especially in the face of interests, it seems not worth mentioning. But I'm sure Selvia isn't that kind of person, and she must have the same pure heart as before.'" ”

As if moved by this sentence, Sweet's eyes were a little red, and she covered her mouth and sat down in disbelief.

"Why did your lord bring this up, and why didn't he come to Hosdy to find us?" In contrast, Mika was very calm.

Mu Yan said in his heart that what should come will always come, so he began to make up a second story, which he and Glazer made up together. The story compiled by two leading scholars, coupled with the speculation of one of the parties on people's hearts, is absolutely justified and convincing.

"Adults are doing a very special study." He deliberately kept his voice down. "You two know the imprint on the outsider, right?"

Mika and the two nodded solemnly.

"Years ago, Lord Hablon of the port of Guiorr lost a slave whose name was 'Ash'. Not knowing how to unravel the imprint on himself, he ran all the way west to Hosdi, still trying to hide in the fog.

It just so happened that Lord Glazer was studying the fog in the south at that time, and was mistaken for a Miao, so the two inevitably clashed.

"And then?" Mika couldn't help but ask, it was clear that he had something in mind. The vicious conjectures that Carbole had put forward before were also shattered by the "truth" at this moment.

"Of course Master Glazer won." Mu Yan said as a matter of course: "But at the same time, he also contracted a strange disease. ”

"Strange disease?"

He nodded, "That's right, weird sickness, or curse." The disease has been dormant for more than twenty years, and it was not revealed until seven or eight years ago. It was a special disease that originated from outsiders, and it had a strange reaction after merging with the brand of the Michao people, and it was because the adults discovered this that they had to lurk outside the outskirts of Hosti to treat their own disease. ”

"Is it serious?" Sweet asked eagerly.

"It's not so much 'serious' as 'bad.'" Mu Yan sighed and said, "This disease will not affect his strength, but it will make him unable to see people." His face was covered with tentacles, and his nose gradually degenerated into gills, and he had to soak in a special solution every day, and over time his body was covered with aquatic plants...... Trust me, you don't want to see that face, that's a ...... It's horrible.

"This change is becoming more and more obvious now, his appearance is now more and more deformed, the whole person is more and more inseparable from water, and his temper is becoming more and more irritable......

Then he sighed again.

"Mistress Glazer and I are from east of the River Styx, and he and my father are old acquaintances, and I really don't want to get involved in this matter if we don't have that relationship. Five years ago he hired an assistant, and it just so happened that the man was also named 'Ash', and guess what happened to him? ”

Sweet's eyes widened and asked, "What's wrong with him?" ”

"When he came out to buy experimental materials a few days ago, he miscalculated the dose, and when he returned, he was killed by adults and burned to ashes." Mu Yan said in a sad tone: "Lord Glazer is obviously such a wise and elegant person, how can he be contaminated with such a vicious curse......"

"Oh my God......"

Sweet thought of the hideous face described by Mu Yan in her mind, and then remembered Glazer's handsome appearance (youthful appearance). The two faces merged in her mind, as unacceptable as a nightmare.

She looked at her brother and saw the shock in the other's eyes as well.

"Fortunately, my lord, he came up with a solution." He suddenly changed his words, "That's why I was sent to ask for the help of the two of you." ”

"What helps?" Mika asked hurriedly.

"The source of the curse is outsiders, so naturally we have to go to the place where they appeared." Mu Yan moved his fingers and sketched a map with elements in the air, among which the River Styx, which happened to form the diagonal, was particularly conspicuous.

"Need a trip to the River Styx."
