Chapter 299: Investigation
"About what they said......" Out of the council hall, Wu Zhi took the information and walked side by side with Li Yuan.
"I don't think it's useful......" Li Yuan tugged at the corners of his mouth: "After the whole meeting, the Dark Demon City Lord seems to want to show what I have done in this matter, and that Charlie completely regards this as a mobilization meeting." ”
"Ha, come with me." Wu Zhiyan smiled: "Yu, do you have any ideas?" ”
Because the clues are now messy, like threads kneaded together, the Sunset Guild is temporarily allowing people to move freely to explore clues. Therefore, most of the glorified warriors with strong blood and strength had already rushed out of the door at this time, shouting to catch the necromancer and let them taste the taste of iron and fire.
Until now, they probably thought that the necromancer was the kind of person who wore gray rags and held a terrifying skeletal staff...... Li Yuan was speechless. He sighed faintly: "Let's go to the person concerned to inquire about the situation." ”
"Well, good idea, but how do you find them?" Wu Zhi asked.
"Uh......" Li Yuan was stunned for a moment, because the information provided to them did not have the contact information or address of those people...... To put it simply, they have no valid data other than the names and numbers of victims.
The damn city lord of the Dark Demon City has a lot of tricks, but it's useless...... He cursed in his heart.
"Let's go to the surrounding businesses and ask." Wu Zhi said.
"Oh, oh, good!" Li Yuan nodded.
So the two of them walked out of the classic British style building together, and walked around the surrounding streets. Both sides of the street are well kept, and I have to say that the Black Demon City is doing a good job, Li Yuan said secretly in his heart.
When they arrived at a fashion store, the clerk who sold fashion saw their eyes light up, and hurriedly greeted: "Eh, two distinguished customers, come and have a look at my store, my fashion is the most high-end in the Dark Magic City, if you miss it, you won't miss it!" ”
Seeing that she was so enthusiastic, Li Yuan also walked to the store with Wu Zhi. The clerk enthusiastically publicized to Li Yuan how the fashion in the store was designed, and what kind of design style was designed...... Listen to Li Yuan's head.
After she said it, Li Yuan finally found the entry point and asked, "That, I want to ask, do you know where the people affected by the haunted rumors live?" ”
"Haunted?" When the clerk with a smile on his face heard this, his face darkened visibly, and his tone was not good: "We haven't been haunted here, what a ghost!" No no! ”
As he spoke, he pushed Li Yuan outside.
"Eh, eh......" Li Yuan was stunned, what do you mean? So what are they doing here?
After pushing Li Yuan out, the clerk still picked up the carpet that Li Yuan had stepped on in disgust and shook it, and snorted: "Early in the morning, bad luck!" ”
Uh, yes yes, no yes, what's the point...... Li Yuan scratched his head, not knowing why her reaction was so big.
He didn't believe in this evil, so he went around the corner and went to another shop to ask. Although it was not as fierce as the store just now, the clerk of the store also had a gloomy face, and gave an eviction order in a tactful tone.
What the hell is this, playing with hair...... Li Yuan was very speechless, and found a home again, but it was still a similar situation.
"It's cold, what's going on here? Don't even solve the problem if something goes wrong? If you don't mention it, then it's okay? "Li Yuandu was made angry, and secretly said that they couldn't go to the Black Demon City Master, right? If this Dark Lord City Lord catches them, he will kill the person who swallowed the Dark Devil's property, and I don't know if he can get out of his house.
"Let's go to the store where we had breakfast today, we paid for it there, and there is always a little bit of thin noodles." Wu Zhi proposed.
"That's right!" Li Yuan's eyes lit up.
So, they took a detour to an alley, and the fragrance of steamed buns wafted through the alley. It's already past ten o'clock, and although the breakfast shop is not as good as it was in the morning, the shop is still open.
When they arrived at the shop, the owner of the breakfast shop looked a little surprised when he saw them: "Are you two still not full?" ”
This is an uncle who looks about fifty or sixty years old, and his figure is very burly, but his forehead is full of wrinkles, and his skin is beginning to sag.
"No, you're full, boss, you still remember us." Li Yuan touched his nose in embarrassment.
"Of course, it's rare to see someone dressed like you and a woman with such temperament in the Dark Magic City." The breakfast shop owner laughed.
Is it rare? How do I feel like seeing a lot, it's all bells and whistles...... Uh, of course, compared to Sister Wu Zhi, those little sisters are still a few levels behind...... Li Yuan muttered.
"But I said brother, no matter how poor a man is, he can't let a woman pay!" The uncle gave him a thumbs up, revealing a mouthful of bright teeth.
This sentence almost made Li Yuan squirt out a mouthful of old blood, and he just wanted to turn around and leave in shame. Why does it sound like I'm a waste little white face......
"He is my vice president, and when he comes out to eat, he naturally pays for it as the president, and he goes back to reimburse him." Wu Zhi said indifferently.
"Oh! I see. Uncle nodded.
"By the way, boss, I'd like to ask if there's something special on your side." Wu Zhi's words changed.
"If there's anything you can ask, you're welcome."
"It's been the last month about the haunting, no problem, right?"
"I see. You've probably hit a lot of walls before you came here, right? Uncle immediately came to his senses.
"Uh......" Li Yuan's face was full of embarrassment.
"Hahahaha!" The uncle laughed loudly: "I said how do you think you have an extraordinary bearing, sure enough, it's from the brave tribe!" ”
"But!" The uncle's laughter stopped abruptly, startling Li Yuan, who thought that the uncle was the necromancer and was going to attack them.
"It's dangerous, are you sure you want to get involved?"
"Uh, uh...... If you're here, you're going to ......."
"Actually, you can also choose not to take the task so seriously, anyway, aren't you the only ones who come, doesn't it say that when the sky falls, the tall man will be on top of it first?" Uncle looks imposing at this moment.
, this uncle seems to be very powerful, did he meet a sweeping monk-like character...... Li Yuan was shocked.
But what the uncle said is right, it's a good choice to pretend that he doesn't know anything and shout and kill those guys to catch some necromancer......
Anyway, is everyone doing this, the Black Magic City is so big and has such a population, even if you don't catch it, isn't it normal...... The right to travel at public expense is a vacation.
What's more, Sunset didn't have a good intention to invite them this time, shouldn't their first element be to protect their own safety, and when the time comes, go back and make some money......
But no, the look of anticipation when the woman entrusted this matter to him was still in front of her, and that urgency was like a drowning man grasping a life-saving straw, even if he was not sure that he would be able to go ashore......
Although Li Yuan is not a helpful three-good boy, seeing such a situation, he still can't choose to turn a blind eye when he has the ability to help, not to mention that the bastard of Merlin also issued a task......
"They may have their own ideas, but we still want to find out more in our own way, and maybe we can find something else." Li Yuan said. He didn't even feel that when he said this, there was something like a sense of mission.
"Really?" The corner of the uncle's mouth grinned, and his hands were crossed: "So, what do you want to ask?" ”
"Well, we just want to ask where the victims live in this matter, and I'm going to go to their families to find out first-hand about the situation, and maybe I can find some clues." Li Yuan explained.
"Oh! So you wanted to ask about this. The uncle suddenly said: "If you want to know about their situation, you can go to the market in Beicheng District to inquire, the people who have accidents are the hunters in that area, and they rely on going into the mountains to fight monsters to eat, and the merchants in the market over there should be able to know." ”
"Okay, thank you, uncle!" Li Yuan was overjoyed in his heart, his brain was running rapidly, and the uncle's words revealed three pieces of information, the people of Beicheng District, Orion, and going into the mountains to fight monsters......
"It's okay, anything else?" Uncle asked again.
"Huh?" Li Yuan was stunned: "What else do you know?" ”
"Probably not, right? Now that you've all been here to investigate, I think I know, you should all know about it, right? The uncle scratched his head honestly.
"Uh......" Li Yuan was speechless for a while, and then said goodbye to his uncle and left.
In the shop, the uncle looked at them with a smile, and when their figures disappeared around the corner of the alley, he was suddenly stunned, as if he had just woken up from a dream, scratching his head: "Hmm? What did I just do? ”
He had a rolling pin in his hand, minced meat and set it aside, a steaming steamer behind him.
"Oh, it's hard to make a brain when you're old, and the buns aren't ready yet!" The uncle patted his head and continued to get busy.
…………
After spending a copper coin on the side of the street to buy a map of the market in the Black Magic City, Wu Zhi took out a mountain buggy and drove Li Yuan through the noisy streets all the way north.
In less than ten minutes, after passing through a high wall, we walked through a stretch of countryside, and the houses on both sides were dilapidated.
The roads were uneven, the streets were dirty and littered, and the ragged homeless men lay on both sides of the street in broad daylight, their faces dark.
Seeing their mountain buggy speeding by, they only glanced up and lowered again.
Their gazes are cloudy and lifeless.
"Is this what the Dark Devil really looks like?" Li Yuan subconsciously clenched his fists, in front of this naked reality, the luxury of the city center was like an unrealistic dream, making people feel like the next day.
If the guilds of the Brave tribes had built a high wall to separate the nobles from the commoners, it would have been a more tangible demonstration of this.
No, if most people come to the Dark Magic City, they will just be amazed by the prosperity of the central area, walk through the fantasy world weaved, and then think that they have learned all about the Black Magic City, right? Li Yuan thought secretly.
After about ten minutes of speeding through dirty and dilapidated dirt roads, a noisy market surrounded by iron fences appeared in front of them.
