Chapter 71: Exploration
This scene and this dialogue made Zhao Xin feel inexplicably familiar, five years ago, Jiawen II also used this way to bring Zhao Xin out of Noxus, and five years later, he actually used the same way, the only difference is that Zhao Xin at that time could easily keep up with the footsteps of the second, and for Diric, if he wants to keep up with Zhao Xin's footsteps, I am afraid he will not be able to do it for decades.
"Is that all right......
After a few minutes, Drake, who finally stopped retching, changed into this outfit, but compared to Zhao Xin at that time, his figure was thinner and smaller, and in order not to be discovered, Zhao Xin had to cast a magic spell on him to make him look like an adult, so that they could pass through the area smoothly.
"Okay, first of all, be sure of one thing, unless that nobleman finds a spirit mage, no one here will know that you stole something, so, be confident, you haven't been discovered yet" After making preparations, Zhao Xin tried to make him more confident, "Now it's time for us to get out of here, after you get this thing, where should you go to meet, or where should you go to deliver the goods?" ”
"Sorry...... We were only temporary partners for this mission, and the specifics of the mission were known to only one person, and the client was only in contact with him, after they fled...... I don't know exactly where they went, and I didn't know where to go to deliver. “
He doesn't know anything = one = book = read = novel xstxt...... Zhao Xin originally wanted to find the magician through him and ask for clarification, but this method didn't seem to work, but it didn't matter, the things they needed were still in Diric's hands, as long as they knew this, these people would definitely take the initiative to appear again, not to mention that the other party was a spirit mage, and now the primary goal was to ensure his safety.
"Let's go, anyway, it's time for us to act."
The regular Noxian soldiers patrolling that night may have met such two people on the road, a soldier who looked to be in his thirties walked in front with some nervousness or fear, while the young soldiers who followed him were quite calm, their clothes were embroidered with the logo of Count Carson, I heard that this nobleman was patronized by a gang of thieves today, and the people who were supposed to catch the thieves were afraid of this, and it seemed that these private soldiers were just like those waste nobles...... Forget it, after all, these nobles are also paying for the army, not to mention that they also have someone to support them, and the regular soldiers will not provoke these private soldiers at will, but they will definitely not have anything to do with them.
"Don't be so afraid, remember who you are now!"
"Okay...... I try my best, but ...... Where exactly are we going? ”
"Just hanging out."
Zhao Xin, who was walking behind Direk, reminded him from time to time that his plan was very simple, since the other party would definitely find them, then why bother to find them, not to mention that now that there are patrolling soldiers everywhere, it will inevitably be more dangerous to act at will, of course, Zhao Xin could have sent him directly to Black Rose, but obviously, this was not his plan.
Count Carson's privates were probably going to be able to search in vain tonight, and they had plenty of time to wait for those people, the only question was, what if they didn't find Diric? Do you just keep wandering around? Although I have no problem, how can a child of this age spend a whole night like this? Zhao Xin had to figure out what to do next.
"That...... May I ask a question? “
Just when Zhao Xin was thinking about how to balance his affairs and the original task, Diric, who was walking in front of him, finally couldn't help but ask, Zhao Xin gently pushed him to signal not to look back, and replied in a low voice: "Say." “
"You...... Why do you know my name? “
This question couldn't be more natural, but because he was disturbed before, he didn't ask it, Zhao Xin was silent for a while, he was hesitating whether he should tell the truth, but in the end, he still made up a lie: "This is the information of the Black Rose, is there any problem?" “
"No, of course not!" Diric immediately replied, "It's just that I think ...... We look about the same age, probably ...... Maybe we've seen it before, of course! I'm not trying to flatter you! But...... You know what I mean. ”
Of course, Zhao Xin understands that although there is an eight-year difference between them, at least five years ago, they were still living in the same place, but after so many years, it is not only themselves who have changed......
Looking at Diric, who was careful not to let people stronger than him get angry, Zhao Xin's heart was actually not calm, standing behind him, of course Zhao Xin wanted him to know that he was Viscello, when he recognized Diric at a glance in that secret room, Zhao Xin immediately chose to save him without thinking about it, but after really saving him, Zhao Xin himself fell into a contradiction, how should he face him now? A person who had disappeared for five years and was missing suddenly appeared in front of him, and he was already a member of Demacia, not to mention that after seeing him, Zhao Xin's suppressed desire to go back to the small farm resurfaced clearly, but he knew that he couldn't- at least now, he definitely couldn't do this, from the most objective point of view, the current Diric is a low-level person belonging to the Black Rose, and Zhao Xin is a member of Demacia's elite guards, and the relationship between the two was originally close to hostility, And saving him was just for his own purposes, so ......
So......
So that's what you have to say, "take advantage" of this person? He's a friend of his own!
No, it's definitely not like this, Zhao Xin immediately denied himself like this, this is just some coincidence, he is the only way to find that spirit mage by himself, but he also happens to be his neighbor, junior, and friend, which has nothing to do with his origin, he just wants to ......
But what do you want?
Through him, he can find the spirit mage, and after finding the spirit mage, maybe he can ask the meaning of what he said, and after asking the meaning, he can understand......
It became such a situation again, still only thinking about "what to do next", without thinking about "why do you do this", Zhao Xin couldn't help but stop and began to really think about this question, what do you want to do? Listen to Noxus' thoughts? Acknowledging your past? Or is it......
Why should you be loyal to Demacia?
Chad's question suddenly sounded in Zhao Xin's mind, this person who usually always guides him once again pointed out the way for him, there is no doubt that all Zhao Xin's confusion and confusion came from the night Chad asked: Why are you loyal to Gavin II, and the more important question after that, although there are many tasks, and after coming to Noxus, Zhao Xin really wants to do only one thing, that is, to find the answer to this question, but obviously, sandwiched between various identities, In the midst of tasks and emotional bonds, he did not find the answer at all, on the contrary, the childish thinking and exploration he did like a baby only brought one consequence.
He was almost utterly confused.
Rumble!
"How...... What's wrong? “
Suddenly the sound of shattering from behind him startled Direk, he immediately looked back, Zhao Xin, who was standing behind him, pressed his forehead hard with one hand, and the other hand had already punched a hole in the wall next to him, Zhao Xin, who was caught in various whirlpools, was a little confused at this time, he didn't know what to do next, he was trapped in the nation, the country, the past, the future, and the real and the unreal, he was simply a mess, the words given to him by the black rose before seemed to be confirmed at this moment, on the way to find the past, Zhao Xin is already on the verge of losing his future.
"Are you alright? Hey...... "Looking at Zhao Xin's chaotic appearance covering his head, Diric was also nervous, not only because he was worried about Zhao Xin, luck seemed to be making things difficult for them, on the way to the oncoming road, a small group of Earl Carson's private soldiers were walking towards them, if it was Zhao Xin, there must be a way to deal with this group of people, but on his own, how to deal with them?
"Hey, that guy doesn't look good, hurry up and take a look." There was no reason for the two people on the side of the road to be ignored, seeing this group of people getting closer and closer, but Zhao Xin still didn't have any intention of making any moves, he could only watch them walk towards him.
