"You're not a local...... Is that right? Alberta looked at the elderly sheriff and asked him what he said.

"Why? Would you ask me that? The old sheriff watched Alberta silently.

On the contrary, the latter stood up from his seat, and the old magistrate sighed slowly: "There should be no conflict between the duchy and the court, don't you think?" ”

Alberta never knew why the old sheriff kept asking him if he had good intentions, then he should save himself and leave, unless he had other intentions, or the old sheriff already knew Alberta's true identity. Alberta shuddered at the thought of this......

"You don't have to think about it...... I'm just an old man...... There's nothing else to think about. As the old sheriff spoke, he stood up, and he came to Alberta's side, and said, almost like a wolf, "You're not a businessman, you're a soldier!" You are a soldier...... Have you seen the sensation of death slipping away beside you...... You've seen it! That's why you have a cold gaze of death in your eyes! ”

When the old sheriff had finished speaking, he went to the door of the inn room, and he said to Alberta, "I am an old man, and I want nothing more." Anyone can see that war is about to break out again...... The Principality of Castilipa is the support of the Akron Atrium Parliament, and if the country we rely on is defeated, our vassal state will naturally not be much better...... As soon as a new war breaks out...... I just wish I had a home......"

As the old sheriff spoke, he snapped, "I...... There is also a grandson, who is very young and naively longs for the plot of the battlefield hero in the novel...... But I know what war is like, I fought when I was younger...... Once the war starts, then ...... It's the world of heroes! Your eyes...... It reveals your qualities...... I just hope that when the situation gets out of hand, there will be a place to stay! ”

When the old sheriff John pushed the door and left, he left a sentence: "Don't forget, I saved you...... When I ask you for the same day, I hope you will give me the same help! ”

……

The old sheriff left, and Alberta sat on his bed in silent contemplation. He sensed that the old sheriff had come by coincidence. Why was he able to show up in a moment of his own distress and help himself when he was about to die?

Alberta was puzzled...... He suspected that he had been targeted as soon as he stepped into the city of Aboxa. As for the old sheriff's statement, Alberta will be skeptical. As a professional trained in counter-espionage, he would not be naïve to believe the words of an old man at will, and he still saved himself, and the time of his appearance was very coincidental to save himself. Alberta sensed suspicion.

……

In the dead of night, Alberta lay in bed, looking at the crumbling ceiling and the flickering lights on the ceiling, the not-so-bright chandelier tied to a rope and wires wrapped around the top of the lamp rope. Alberta looked at the lights, which were pushed by the wind and swayed from side to side as the wind kept blowing in. The light and shadow in the room are sometimes bright and sometimes dark......

Due to the shaking of the chandelier, the room is half bright and half dark, and there is always a feeling of coldness. At this moment, a cold wind suddenly blew outside the window, blowing the push hand of the glass window, and because the glass window was old, the strong wind blew on it and made a buzzing sound. It's like a wolf neighing.

The cold air was blowing into Alberta's room, and it was probably late March, the night of March 24, 903 A.D. to be exact. It shouldn't be too cold, but when this gust of wind blows in, it feels chilling.

Alberta shuddered all of a sudden, and with the sound of a wolf's howl, Alberta suddenly felt the unpleasant feeling of his hairs standing on end. He looked at his wristwatch, and the time was written on it: 10:31, and there was about an hour and twenty-nine minutes to reach twelve o'clock in the evening, that is, about an hour and a half later, the next day......

Alberta stood up, he went to the window, pushed the old window shut, and locked it. When he closed the window, he looked at the situation on the street again, and it was still not optimistic. Fights and screams can be heard from time to time.

Alberta closed the window, and the old window made a "magnetic button" sound, and then Alberta had just turned around when suddenly he heard a knock on the door!

Alberta was a spirit, he hurried back to his senses, he held the pistol in his right hand, he slowly came to the door, and when he came to the door, the knock suddenly became loud!

Alberta gripped the doorknob and clenched the pistol in his right hand. Then he opened the door mirror, only to see that there was no one outside the hotel!

Alberta suddenly felt a chill in his back, and cold sweat broke out of his back...... At that moment, the window behind him suddenly opened, and a gust of wind hit, and Alberta almost pulled out his pistol, but he looked back to realize that the windows of the inn were so old that the handle of the window was broken by the strong wind......

He was so concerned about who was knocking on the door, and instead of closing the window, he opened the door, only to find a letter on the floor......

Alberta looked left and right, only to see no one around. He picked up the letter and locked the door of the hotel. He suspected that there had been a knock on the door, left the letter, and then left at a rapid pace.

He first pinned the window again, and observed the letter, which was stamped with fire paint and seals, and that there was nothing else on the stamps. There is no token that identifies the identity or the person who came.

Alberta opened the letter, and he took out the letter, and when he opened it, he suddenly found that there was not a word on it!

At this time, a loud knock appeared at the door of Alberta again! Alberta was furious, he held the pistol on his back and came to the door as fast as he could, only to find it empty when he opened it......

Alberta looked to the left and right of the hotel aisle, and it was equally empty...... Just when Alberta is ready to take the step towards a hostel house! He stopped like an electric shock!

Alberta has one foot in the air and the other foot is in place...... He was sweating profusely...... He even felt his hands cold......

He hurriedly withdrew his dangling feet, and first wiped the beads of sweat from his body, he slowly leaned down, his body almost close to the ground! He suddenly discovered that a steel wire thinner than a human hair was laid out at the foot of Alberta, that is, outside the door!

Alberta knows too well what this device is! It's a miniature bomb! If Alberta had not been calm and stepped out of the door of the room, he would have triggered the device immediately, and the bomb hanging in the air would have bounced down immediately, blowing his head to pieces......

This device is a type of ricochet bomb, which is extremely expensive to make, and is generally a special means used to assassinate some important person.

Alberta's sweat fell violently...... At this moment, seeing that the beads of sweat were about to fall on the steel wire, Alberta caught the beads of sweat, and at this time he slowly stood up and carefully closed the door......

Alberta knew he was being targeted. At this moment, a violent gust of wind almost lifted the window frames, and the windows of the Alberta hotel were opened at once, and he hurriedly prepared to close the windows again, and at this moment, he vaguely saw a reflection in the distance!

Rao is well-trained in Alberta and extremely agile in his movements! He squatted almost thoughtlessly!

It was just as he crouched down that a small "poof" sound sounded violently, and then the window of the Alberta Hotel immediately became fragmented......

Alberta knows too well that it's the sniper in the building across the street preparing to kill him! Alberta was unclear who was going to kill him, and who was going to use such a troublesome method.

The shopkeeper downstairs heard the sound of broken glass upstairs, and hurriedly went upstairs as fast as he could, shouting as he went upstairs: "What are you doing!" Broke something! Gotta lose money! ”

Alberta did not dare to let the shopkeeper push open his door, he shouted: "Break the glass bottle, tomorrow I will accompany you for three times the money!" The boss doesn't have to make a trip to you! ”

At this time, Alberta heard the shopkeeper's voice getting closer and closer, and even he heard the shopkeeper's voice, judging from the sound, the shopkeeper was outside the door!

But the shopkeeper didn't open the door and stepped in, and he angrily rebuked outside: "Don't think about not losing money! ”

Alberta hid under the window in a sweat and said, "Be sure to give money!" Give money by all means! Thrice! ”

The shopkeeper snorted in a fully nasal voice, and then Alberta let out a sigh of relief as he heard the shopkeeper's footsteps leave. He began to wonder if the old sheriff was a man sent by the enemy's spy forces to assassinate him!

Alberta was very remorseful, how could he be so easily fooled! Then the sheriff came to the inn......

At this moment, he wanted to make sure that the sniper on the opposite building had left, and he took out his top hat and propped it up with the staff of civilization, the moment he just held the staff of civilization and exposed it to the window of the house!

A muffled sound in the distance sounded, and it was the kind of sound similar to "poof"! Alberta's top hat was pierced in an instant and flew into the distance......

Alberta knew very well that the "poof" was the sound of a muffler...... Now, Alberta's life is on the verge of sweat...... It was the first time he had been in such a crisis situation, and his mind was almost blank...... All he could think about at this time was why he was so reckless and fell into the trap of the enemy!
