There is a sentence to describe the east of the city, that is, spring is like the four seasons, the weather in this early spring is changing, just now the sky is still clear, and now the dark clouds are rolling.

Ye Fei went to a nearby convenience store to buy two umbrellas, Lu Shi fought with her, An Yutong and Beiteng.

"Is it going to rain or not?" Ye Fei walked for a long time with an umbrella and didn't drop a drop of rain, she looked at the sky a little annoyed.

"I'll take it." Lu Shi took the umbrella: "There are about ten minutes left, and we will arrive at the residence of the puppeteer Zuo Yue nearby." ”

"Is it a woman?" Ye Fei stole a glance at the information in Lu is hand.

"Well, it's a woman, about seventy years old."

Speaking of which, the puppeteer's age really can't be seen from her appearance, such as this Zuo Yue, Ye Fei looked at the ID photos she took in the past five years and was no different from a little girl in her early twenties.

If he hadn't known the identity of her puppeteer, Ye Fei might have suspected that the other party was a vampire.

"Are the puppeteers living in such a remote place?" An Yutong looked at the increasingly quiet alleyway and couldn't help but say.

Lu is glanced at An Yutong, and he didn't even want to say more to this blood clan, but fortunately, there was a Beitou beside him to adjust the atmosphere.

"After all, the puppeteer's job is there! Miss, in fact, this is not remote, the place where I used to live is more remote than this! ”

Ye Fei subconsciously looked at Beiteng.

Kitto was looked at like this, and his interest in speaking became even higher: "The place where I used to live was a peripheral refugee area, and many people there did not have a hukou, because some of them ran out of the blood domain, and some of them were refugees who fled from other cities. ”

Ye Fei subconsciously thought that when he and Lu were first taken to the Donglan Orphanage, it seemed to be the same, and the identity registration was not very clear, and most of the details of their household registration information were blurred in that hunt.

No one would investigate the origin of the two orphans, and if they were dead at that time, no one would pay attention.

"So, some people are born with gold and enjoy all the best treatment, and some people are born with all the humble means to climb up, and that's the difference." Kitto whistled.

"I don't even know who my parents are, I can remember begging for a living in that refugee area, when I was younger, I could go out and ask for food, and for the sake of my young age, I could get a lot of food, but then when I was 12 years old, I didn't want to get much, so I had to find a way to find a job."

"But people who don't have identification, even if you write the word "good person" on your face, no one is willing to use you with kindness." Kitato gestured, "I went to almost half of our shops over there, and no one would use me, even though the price I shouted to hire me was the lowest among all the hired people. ”

Ye Fei tilted his head, "What happened later?" ”

"Later." Beito took out a piece of beef jerky and handed it to her, Ye Fei took it and subconsciously wanted to eat it, Lu is slapped her palm, Ye Fei had to pinch it in the palm of his hand, and he didn't dare to eat it.

"Didn't I find the thick thighs of the eldest lady later?!" Kitto smiled and didn't forget to pat An Yutong on the back, but Lu Shi glanced at him and didn't say anything.

An Yutong kept a cold face, as if the person Beitou said was not herself, Ye Fei felt that this girl had not spoken much, except for the initial greeting, she rarely spoke.

Could it be that the attributes of the partners are complementary these years?

Because there are too many words in Beiteng, An Yutong has few words?

Ye Fei thought silently.

"Here we are." Lu was right, right to the address: "This is Zuo Yue's home." ”

Zuo Yue lived in the deepest part of the alley, which didn't surprise Lu Shi and the others, it was the place in front of him, how could it not look like a puppeteer living in a place!

"This is the hotel?"

Ye Fei smelled this taste, and couldn't help but drool.

While they were talking, the door in the depths of the alley quietly opened, and a plainly dressed young woman walked out with a large vat of wine, she had a pair of clear eyes, a delicate and lovely face, and the woman saw them and froze.

"You're here to buy wine?"

Her eyes fell on Kito, who looked to be the oldest in the group, Kitato paused for a moment, and under the attention of the other three teenagers who were less than fourteen years old, she stepped forward stubbornly, "What good wine do you have here to sell?" ”

The woman hugged the wine jar and said, "I'm here, I'll sell a kind of wine." ”

Kitato "!! ”

Ye Fei asked curiously, "What kind of wine is it?" ”

"Plum wine." The woman placed the vat next to the door. "I'm afraid you're not here to buy wine, so come in and talk."

Knowing they're not here to buy alcohol and letting them in?

It was the first time that Ye Fei and Lu had seen such a cooperative investigation subject.

Of course, they hadn't seen a few subjects before.

is different from what they imagined, Zuo Yue's room is not so gloomy, but it is very open and atmospheric, and there are many flowers planted next to Ye Fei that Ye Fei can't name, her house is very warm, even if it is in the depths of the alley, but the windows are very open, the lighting is not bad, and you can even see her neatly placed wine vat in the small courtyard.

The aroma of flowers and wine is refreshing, with a pleasant feeling. E-Book Workshop

None of this is consistent with her status as a puppeteer.

Zuo Yue washed his hands and poured a cup of tea for each of them.

Ye Fei looked at the floating petals in the cup and asked, "What kind of flower tea is this?" ”

"Rose tea." Zuo Yue moved a few stools and put them next to the stone table in the small courtyard, her residence exudes a classical meaning, there are not many modern facilities, and even the wine seems to be handmade by her.

"It's delicious." Ye Fei held the quilt, took a sip, squinted his eyes comfortably, the mellow and silky taste slid into his throat with warm water, and he felt that the whole person was sublimated.

Zuo Yue smiled and looked at the other three who didn't drink tea, "Don't you like this kind of shoddy handmade tea?" ”

Lu is very shallow sip, he has always been a non-drinker, and An Yutong ignored it, although Beitou said that he wanted to drink it when he looked at this cup of tea, but An Yutong didn't move, and he didn't move.

The already faint smile on Zuo Yue's face became even lighter: "You were sent by the government, right?" ”

Lu is raised eyebrows: "Yes." ”

"Also, my place, it's remote and hard to find, except for those who come to buy wine, only you will come, what's the matter, what happened this time to involve our Zuo family?"

Zuo's?

"The puppet master of the human race is divided into three sects, and the Zuo clan used to be the leader of the puppet master sect. ”

Ye Fei opened his mouth wide: "Then is there a Luo's?" ”

Shouldn't the number one in the world be Rockwell?! Luo Yingyan is the most powerful puppeteer in history!

Zuo Yue took a sip of tea and knew what she wanted to say, "Without Luo's family, Luo Yingyan is not from any sect, but all the puppet masters in the world are from Luo Ying's master." Whether it's bloodline, or human. ”

Luo Yingyi, Master? Well, what a great look!

Ye Fei pulled Lu Yes's sleeve, and the bottom of his eyes showed this meaning.

Lu knocked on her head helplessly. "This time, we saw the shadow of a puppet in the Mingtian Mercenary Group, and it was used for profit-making business, which was officially forbidden."

Zuo Yue was silent for a moment, "I'm the only one left in my Zuo clan, and my puppet disappeared forty years ago, and this matter has nothing to do with me." ”

Is there only one left in the puppet master's faucet, Zuo Yue?

Ye Fei and Lu glanced at each other, and they both saw the shock from the bottom of each other's eyes, but An Yutong and Bei Teng didn't react, they were people who left the city in the east, so they naturally knew about Zuo's loneliness.

"Would you like to inspect my house?" Zuo Yue put down the teacup in his hand and said, "Left and right, I, the old woman, can provide you with some help." ”

A woman who looked at her twenties at most said that she was an old woman, Ye Fei really felt incapable of adapting.

"No need." Lu is stood up, "Since you said so, we don't have any reason to doubt you, it's just that this matter is always inseparable from the puppeteer, I hope you have to pay attention to yourself recently, we will suspect you about this matter, and it is not that there are no other people's fingerprints." ”

Zuo Yue took a sip of flower tea and didn't say anything.

It was already noon when they came out of Zuo Yue's place, and Ye Fei said, "Let's go have a meal first?" ”

Lu is looked at the information sheet and nodded, "Then let's eat first." ”

An Yutong subconsciously frowned, and wanted to say something, but Kitto grabbed her in time, "Okay, okay, I'm hungry too, let's eat first and then act!" ”

Lu chose a restaurant specializing in barbecue, mainly because Ye Fei couldn't move his legs when he saw this shop, so Lu had no choice but to choose this.

"Speaking of which, you are the thirteen horsemen who left the city in the east, don't you two horses have to act with other people?" Lu is sauce for Ye Fei and said.

Kitto said, "No, except for some large-scale occasions where we need to appear collectively in the town, the rest of the time we are all taking on tasks separately, after all, the high salary of blood hunting is not for nothing, and blood hunting is also the most dangerous and busiest of all professions." ”

Lu is deeply convinced. "I remember you said that Carnival is in early spring, but this year it's already over?" Lu is tearing a piece of meat for Ye Fei and asked.

"No, there are three days left, and you can also participate in this year's carnival!" Kitato was excited when he talked about this, "On that day, many stores would give discounts and do promotions, and there were performance teams on the street!" ”

Ye Fei listened and became interested, "Do you have anything to eat?" ”

"Of course there is! In the evening, the bustling streets are full of food stalls, and there will be a big carnival dance party in the center of the city, and the lord of the city will also come out to have fun with the people that night, which is also one of the occasions when we thirteen horsemen need to appear at the same time. "Kitto said it all in one go, but what he said was Ye Fei and Lu can know after a little inquiry.

"Sounds fun, yes!" Ye Fei looked at Lu is excitedly.

Lu is lowered his eyes, "Let's come out and have a look that night." ”

Performing tasks is one thing, and when it comes to this kind of festival, Bloodhunt can also apply for a holiday.

Ye Fei nodded excitedly, "Okay!" ”

Little did they know that the night of the revelry, like the New Year's Eve of that year, would usher in a brutal massacre.
