"Is that her?" Dudian recalled the smell wafting from the carriage, his eyes flickered slightly, and after a moment, he set off to pursue in the direction of the smell. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

An hour later.

Following the trail left by the scent, Dudian came to a nearby town, where the streets were dirty, with some dark alleys sparsely populated by rats and few people, and the shops on either side of the street were uninquired about.

Dudian came to a stop in front of a huge manor at the edge of the town, and saw that the carriage that had passed behind him was parked in a corner of the manor, and near this carriage, there were seven or eight other carriages, all of which, judging from their shapes, were not professionally drawn carriages on the streets, but privately built vehicles, of different fabrics and sizes.

Dudian stood around the corner, surveying the manor, and soon noticed that the lawn of the manor was extremely clean, and there were four guards at the door, and behind the other walls of the manor, there was a fixed smell, wafting back and forth along a fixed route, which should be the patrol guards of the manor.

Du Dian looked at it carefully, and said secretly in his heart: "Sure enough, it's her!" Then he turned and walked around the town, and soon found a tailor's shop, went inside, and said to the boss, "Make me a robe, and I want it now." ”

The boss was a curly-haired woman, and when she saw a guest coming in, she hurriedly greeted her warmly and said, "Please take a seat, the robe is very convenient, and it will be ready immediately." ”

Dudian nodded.

Looking around the shop, I suddenly smelled a faint fishy smell, and looked in the direction of the smell, but it was emanating from the wall behind the tailor's shop, which was extremely hidden, and I couldn't help but be slightly startled, and looked at the curly-haired woman imperceptibly.

The curly-haired woman happened to turn around and asked, "What color do you want?" ”

Du Di'an's eyes moved slightly, and he said, "Black, linen will do." ”

"Good!" The curly-haired woman turned around and picked out a piece of black cloth and pulled out scissors to cut it, in an era when mechanical energy had not yet been used, and the sewing machine had not yet been invented.

Dudian silently looked at the back of the curly-haired woman, and suddenly found that the color of her nails was pale red, and there were still some dregs left in the gaps.

"A murderer? Or a Life Faction Alchemist? Du Di was secretly awe-inspired, he didn't expect to find a random tailor shop in this town, and he encountered such a thing, thinking of the many carriages parked in front of the manor, he faintly felt that he seemed to have entered an incredible alchemy stronghold.

After a moment, the curly-haired woman handed the finished black robe to Du Dian and said, "Please change it to see if it fits." ”

Du Dian didn't wear it, just glanced at it and said, "It's okay." "Paid, picked up the black robe and turned to leave, as for the mask, although it is sold in this store, he still gave up the purchase, otherwise it is a black robe and a mask, it is too weird, if the other party is also an alchemist, most likely he will guess his identity, and thus leave his face information.

Dudian went to other shops in the town and bought ink and pens, as well as stuffed dolls and masks, as well as flowers.

When he came to a small hotel, he threw the plush doll aside, dipped his pen in ink, and carved an alchemical tattoo on his chest, and after a while, the black cross tattoo from before was burned on his chest again, and he begged the boss for some coals, lit it in the room, dried the ink on his chest, and then crushed the flowers, smeared the juice on his chest, and ripped off the remaining petals and threw them in the underwear compartment.

Finally, holding the black robe and mask, he left the hotel.

Before returning to the manor, Du Dian was around the corner, taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, and changed the black robe and a white cat mask that he bought casually, and then walked towards the manor.

"What people!" The four guards noticed Dudian and waited until he approached before he stopped him.

Dudian said, "Get out of the way." ”

The four guards glanced at each other when they heard such a tough voice behind the white cat mask, and one of the guards had a cold face that narrowed slightly, and said in a low voice, "Do you have an invitation?" ”

Du Di'an frowned slightly, thought for a while, and said quickly: "I didn't bring it." ”

"Didn't bring it?" The four guards were slightly stunned, and their faces suddenly turned cold, "Please leave, this is a private territory, and you are not allowed to enter without an invitation." ”

Du Dian said: "I'm here to find a friend, please help me inform her, she just came over, called Nightingale, she brought an invitation, I made an appointment with her to come here today, she can prove my identity." ”

The four guards looked at each other, and one of them shook his head and said, "No, we are not responsible for the report here." ”

Du Di'an's voice was cold, and he shouted lightly: "Don't be ignorant, if you delay today's big event, you can't afford to take this responsibility!" ”

The guard frowned slightly, and sneered: "Don't talk nonsense, it's just that my master beckons friends to have a private party, what's not a big deal, if you are verbose, we can only use strong means to ask you to leave." ”

Du Dian didn't expect this doorman to be so difficult, so he could only say: "Yes, may I ask what star your master is?" Even the face of a mere doorman is so big? He spoke with a lot of anger, as if he blurted out in anger.

The faces of the four guards suddenly changed, and the person from before looked at Du Dian carefully, and said, "You just said you were looking for a nightingale, right?" I'll go in and ask you to see if there is such a person, if not, don't blame us for being polite! ”

Du Dian snorted coldly and said, "Let's just say that it was her old friend from three years ago, and the hound was looking for her." ”

"Hounds?" Hearing this obviously nickname, the four guards looked at Dudian's face and softened slightly, and the guard immediately turned around and ran into the manor.

After more than ten minutes, the guard returned, but his attitude became polite, and he said in a humble tone: "Wait a minute, I will help you inform her, and she will be fine immediately." ”

Dudian stood with his hands in his hands, waiting quietly.

A moment later, the door to the manor was opened, and a tall figure wearing an owl mask came out with a dress, she was brightly dressed and looked like a common masked ball.

After a while, the nightingale came to the door, looked at the white cat mask figure outside, and had some doubts in his heart, "You are a hound?" ”

Dudian heard this beautiful and graceful voice, although it was a little different from three years ago, more clean and mature, but it was still the familiar timbre, and he knew that his nose was not mistaken, and immediately said: "Mouse, viper, nightingale, hound." "Say four code names in a row.

Nightingale was slightly stunned when she heard this, muttered for a moment, and said, "Can you let me see your tattoo?" ”

Dudian nodded slightly.

The guard next to her opened the door, and Dudian came up to her, lifted the black robe from her chest, and pulled open her undershirt, revealing the black cross tattoo on her chest.

After a glance, Nightingale breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "I didn't expect it to be you, how did you find me?" ”

Seeing that Du Di'an's identity was confirmed, the four guards next to him also breathed a sigh of relief.

Du Dian said: "I've been wandering around this town recently, and I accidentally saw you today." ”

Nightingale's owl mask revealed a pair of clear eyes, looked at Du Dian playfully, and said, "Unintentionally, I haven't seen you for three years, you can still recognize me, it's not easy to explain." ”

Du Dian heard her relaxed and teasing tone, but his heart was panny, his brain spun rapidly, and he scratched his head and said: "Okay, in fact, I also heard about it from a friend, but I'm not sure if it's the same person, I ventured over today to give it a try, only to find out that it was really you." ”

Nightingale said with interest: "Friend? Which friend? I may know if I say it. ”

Seeing her get to the bottom of the matter, Du Dian smiled slightly bitterly and said, "My friend doesn't really want others to know his name, for fear of causing trouble, so I hope you will forgive me." ”

Nightingale looked at him for a while, with a smile in his eyes, and said, "Forget it, anyway, I'm basically sure of your identity, and no stupid knight of light will come to this town to investigate, let's go in first, I still have a lot of questions to ask you." (To be continued.) )
