Chapter 56: Clues

"It's an honor to be rewarded?" Ling was dumbfounded.

Seeing that there seemed to be a trace of regret and yearning in Kirito's eyes, Ling somewhat understood.

In this world where strength is respected, neither good nor evil is synonymous with honor, only strength is the truth.

The strong people who can make a name for themselves in the ninja world, whether it is the shadow of a village or the renegade, are all achievements achieved by strong strength.

For example, the later scorpion, in order to study the puppet, can slaughter the city and destroy the country because of this, and the blood in his hands may be able to gather into a river.

But because of this, he has become a strong man, and when people mention him, they will only be afraid to look up, because he is a powerful "Red Sand Scorpion".

Ling thought wildly in his mind, and as time passed, the outline of a small town appeared in front of him.

"Ling, the underground black market is in the town ahead, after entering for a while, you follow me, don't talk." Kirito said with a little seriousness.

"Yes, Captain!" Ling replied with a low snort.

The two of them came to a store, avoided the crowd and came to the backyard, removing the clutter in the corner, Kirito gathered the chakra in his palm and slapped it on the ground, and a dark passage appeared in front of him.

"Alright, let's go down."

"Good!"

The secret passage was a little dim, winding down, Ling felt that he had gone deeper than ten meters underground, and a secret door appeared in front of him.

Ling could feel the fluctuations of the enchantment around him, and it seemed that the passage was under surveillance.

Retracting his gaze, the secret door in front of him had opened, and the two walked in.

A clear sound of footsteps was heard, especially evident in the dark room underground, and a man in a cloak approached, his hood covering most of his face, making it difficult to see.

"Why are you two here?" His voice was hoarse, like a night owl in the wilderness.

Kirito revealed the aura of his body, and the other party clearly felt it, but there was no change on his face.

"Let's find out about a gang of rebels." He spoke.

The cloaked man handed Kirito a thick booklet, and then stepped aside in amusement.

Kirito looked through it, and Ling also surrounded him.

The booklet records are very detailed, including the name and strength of the origin, and the information of a traitorous ninja is recorded on it, weak to medium ninja, strong to unknown strength, extremely dangerous.

"Huh? Got it. Kirito's gaze froze, and Ling also looked over.

"Shinichiro Morishima, the strength of the elite ninja, the rebellious forbearance of Iwakuin Village, is good at earth escape and physical arts.

A year ago, he became a traitor ninja, formed a team with four other traitorous ninjas, and was active in the country of grass, robbing passing merchants, and at the same time intercepting and killing elite ninjas in various ninja villages in exchange for bounties. ”

Kirito then printed his portrait and returned the booklet to the cloaked man.

"Let's go." Greeting Chao Ling, Kirito took the lead and kicked it.

Ling followed closely behind him, and the cloaked man retreated without saying anything.

When Ling and the others returned to the inn, You and Xia Sheng had already returned.

After hearing the movement and confirming his identity, Yu couldn't wait to ask, "Captain, how is it, have you found any information about the other party?" ”

Kirito took out the portrait, "What about you, what are the results of the investigation?" ”

Xia Sheng replied, "We walked around the town in the morning, and all the elite ninjas of the upper ninja level, as well as teams in similar situations, are here. ”

As he spoke, he took out four copies of the same map, with a lot of circles on them, which seemed to be the possible location of the mission target.

"Well, without further ado, everyone will remember the portrait, one person takes a map, a total of ten suspicious locations, and the next ......"

Kirito arranged the next tasks in detail, Xia Sheng, who was good at reconnaissance, was in charge of three locations, captain Kirito was in charge of three places, and Ling and Yu were each in charge of two.

It seems that after the last mission, Ling has integrated into the team, and several people have also regarded Ling as a companion, and they are no longer a "burden" that needs special care.

"Be careful when investigating, be careful not to reveal your identity, put a signal flare if there is an accident, and gather at the post house after completing the task."

After Kirito instructed again, he made a gesture of disbandment, and everyone left the post house in a flash.

Ling came to the first mission location, and there was a shop and a restaurant nearby.

After finding nothing in the store, Ling went to the restaurant.

Because it was noon, there were still a lot of people inside, but most of them were ordinary people, and only the two people in the corner had very different breaths.

"Boss, three strings of meatballs, a bowl of red bean soup!" Ling Chao shouted inside, Ling did not use the transformation technique to change his appearance, at this time he was only a ten-year-old child, and he was not afraid of exposing himself.

"Okay!"

Ling sat at an empty table, glancing at the two people in the corner from time to time.

As a ninja, Ling Neng could clearly feel the dangerous aura on their bodies, they were definitely two ninja-level ninjas, and they were dangerous elements who had been killed for a long time.

However, it can be seen from the side face that it is not Shinichiro Morishima who he is looking for, although so, Ling is not careless, maybe it is the two of the other party's gang.

Soon Ling's food was served, and Ling watched them as he ate.

The two ninjas were quite vigilant and didn't communicate during the meal, and Ling couldn't get any more Sorry.

Suddenly, one of them turned his head abruptly and looked behind him, and the ninja's instinct made him feel that someone was watching him.

"Am I feeling wrong?" Then he turned his head, and the two made eye contact for a moment, then got up to pay and left the restaurant.

"Boss, I'm done, thank you for your hospitality." After Ling checked out, he saw the two of them walking a little farther away before he walked out and quietly followed behind them.

When they came to a secluded alley, the two dodged into an alley.

Ling hesitated for a moment.

According to the normal plot, they must have discovered that someone was following, and if they walked in, they would definitely be discovered, and they might be in danger at that time......

But just after hesitating for a moment, he felt a little helpless, and it made no difference whether he could enter or not at this time.

Regardless of whether they are the target of the mission or not, since it has been discovered that someone is following, the investigation has failed, and the main owner, Shinichiro Morishima, will definitely not be found.

He left here without hesitation and came to the second mission site, but unfortunately this was a street, and even if Shinichiro Morishima was here at the time, he would have run away at this moment.

Ling sighed, it seems that his mission experience is still much worse, if his eyes were not discovered by the other party at that time, maybe there would still be a chance.

No longer wasting time, Ling went straight back to the post house where he had gathered.

At this time, You and Xia Sheng had already returned, and when they saw the door open, the two looked at Ling at the door, and several people looked at each other and shook their heads, it seemed that the investigation mission of several people had failed.

I can only wait for the captain Kirito to come back and make plans.
