Chapter 44: Doubts

After the sound of warning gongs and drums subsided, there was silence in the Green Dragon City for a while.

But the people who had been disturbed by this gong and drum still kept talking, speculating about what had triggered the warning.

Of course, no matter how outrageous the results of the speculation may be, as far as I can hear, it is still the main speculation based on what happened in the arena two or three days ago.

However, I had already eaten the food cleanly, and I felt that all this had nothing to do with me, so I calmly called Xiao Er, and after settling the bill, I was ready to go back to the room to rest.

I just left my seat, and there was the unique sound of the loudspeaker in the city, although I didn't care about it in my heart, I was still a little curious at this time, so I simply didn't go back to the room, walked a few steps, and walked to the side of the railing, crowded in the crowd, and listened to what the high-level of the Blue Dragon City was going to say, and I could hear it clearly when I stood on this side.

With the sound of the loudspeaker, the entire Blue Dragon City fell silent.

It's hard to imagine that there is only one voice echoing in such a huge city, and that is the sound coming from the loudspeaker.

The broadcast is a woman, and her voice is very sweet, but the narration is everything I did in the fighting arena that day, which originally seemed to me to be just a fight, but under the rendering of the broadcast script, I became a spy who didn't know where I came from, and after the act was revealed that day, it turned out to be the person who wanted to kill the entire fighting arena.

Later, it was the hidden demon emperor in the dungeon who took action to stop this tragedy.

A sneer appeared at the corner of my mouth, and the trick of public opinion propaganda seemed to be the same everywhere. Moreover, from the beginning of the reading of this content, I knew that the ultimate purpose of this matter was to lead to the trial, and it seemed that Boss Zhang was able to inform me of the news so long in advance, and he was indeed a powerful figure.

It's just that I remembered what people talked about before, this warning gong and drum seems to be difficult to appear once, and the last time it appeared was because of some beast tide, it was because there was a danger of destroying the city, so it was used once, because the whole city needed to be mobilized.

It is true that I made a lot of trouble in the fighting arena, but at worst, it was not big, but I only killed a nobleman and defeated a few princes, and it did not cause much loss. If you have to talk about the shocking point, it is nothing more than the appearance of several princes, so as to use warning gongs and drums?

In addition, I remembered that inexplicable trial, Boss Zhang's inside news was to kill Xin Yi and open a big array or something. And when I visited Jiu'er's house at night, Xin Yi didn't seem to know about this matter, but what she knew was that she was going to marry Jiu'er in the next few days.

Who's lying? I don't doubt Xin Yi, and Jiu'er's happy appearance is definitely not a fake, unless the upper echelons of the dungeon are hiding Jiu'er and Xin Yi together. But is it necessary?

Is that the upper echelons of the dungeon 'acting'? That's too exaggerated, isn't it? Even warning gongs and drums were used.

I'm still inclined to conspiracy theories, but I'm completely confused about the purpose of the people in the dungeon, and the sound of the horn continues, and I'm completely lost in my own thoughts, and my brow is getting tighter.

Knowing that the people around me were too crowded and bumped into me, I came back to my senses, and heard that the loudspeaker was already talking about the trial, probably because there was such a thing in the city, and it was necessary to thoroughly investigate it from the inside, and it could not be hidden from all the people of Qinglong City, and a trial meeting would be held in public, just tomorrow. All the people of Qinglong City should witness.

What the hell is going on? Dispatch the whole city? And just tomorrow? I originally thought that Boss Zhang would have to wait at least a few days for the news I was told, but without warning, I rushed to tomorrow!

More and more fog is entangled, but I can't figure it out, because I don't know their purpose, how can I sort it out? But I've already made up my mind, this matter has nothing to do with me, I just take Xin Yi with me, and let it dungeon flood, at least not yet, isn't it? According to Chen Chengyi, it should be a few more years to wait.

Ignoring the hustle and bustle of the crowd, I turned and left.

The horn continued, and he even mentioned the attack on the Counselor's Office, and reminded everyone how serious this matter was, and it must have been done by the mysterious hostile forces.

I'm funny to hear, and this can also be related, but it's crooked, isn't it true that I did it alone? What does it have to do with mysterious forces?

By the time I answered the room, the sound of the horn continued, and it began to repeat itself again. It's just that when I closed the doors and windows, the sound had no effect on me, and I was already a little tired, so I simply began to lie down on the bed, closed my eyes and fell asleep quickly.

When I woke up, it was already night, less than 4 hours before Xin Yi had made an appointment with me, I opened the window and looked, the curfew street was quieter than ever, but it was also more lively.

Quiet naturally means that there are no more superfluous pedestrians, and lively naturally means that there are a lot more patrols.

Closing the window, I casually asked the shopkeeper to send a lot of food, ate some at random, packed the rest in a package, changed into night clothes, and quietly left the room through the window.

Packing food is naturally to take Xin Yi to escape, after all, no one can predict what will happen, and some food will always make the situation better.

This time the departure was not easier than the last one, and the increasingly intensive patrols forced me to move more carefully.

The place where Xin Yi asked me to be in the south of the city is in the suburbs, and I still have some impression of those, from the suburbs of the south of the city, it is a barren place, leading to the work and rest area, if you want to escape, it is also a good choice. Could it be that Xinyi is ready for everything?

I had a lot of ideas, but I was at ease and didn't have any doubts, because whoever betrayed me, Xin Yi would not betray me.

It was supposed to be less than an hour away, but because of the patrols, I walked for a full two hours before I reached the outskirts of the southern part of the city.

In a place like this, there is a large oil lamp similar to a street lamp every far away, but this kind of oil lamp is not as penetrating as the neon of the city, making the originally dim suburbs of Qinglong City even darker, only a little better than the darkness that can't be seen.

I've seen this kind of drowsiness a long time ago, I don't think about it, and it won't affect my eyesight too much, but there is no patrol team here, just like the suburbs of ordinary cities, there are only some scattered houses here, which are the kind of people who live in the relatively poor and low-status people in Qinglong City, and in a slightly excited mood, I simply ran wild in this silent suburban wasteland.

The outskirts of the city are so big, I don't know where Xin Yi will be, but I don't mind, after all, no matter how big the suburbs are, there is a certain range, and out of a certain range, it is not a suburb, but a wasteland of an underground city.

I don't know how long I ran, but in short, I searched a large area on the outskirts of the city, and I didn't see the shadow of Xin Yi.

I simply looked directly out of the outskirts of the city, ready to look for it from the outside in, in my heart I was not afraid that Xin Yi would not come, the fixed memory that had been given to me for a long time had penetrated deep into my soul, that is, as long as I was there, Xin Yi would appear no matter what.

With this in mind, I ran as fast as I could, and after a while, I was running to the wasteland close to the outside of the city.

When I looked up, it was already the last large oil lamp on the outskirts of the city, and a smile appeared on my face, because the figure under the street lamp was not Xin Yi and who was it? This night, she was wearing a pale green long dress, still in the style of the Tang and Song dynasties in China, draped in a white cloak, and the silhouette looked so beautiful under the reflection of the oil lamp.

The surrounding was a dark and quiet plain, everything was silent, except for my footsteps, Xin Yi stood there, looking a little lonely, so she didn't have any expression, just waited quietly.

I resisted the urge to call out to her, after all, this was still the confines of the suburbs, with sparse buildings, and the sound of a cry here was more obvious than anything else.

But perhaps because he heard my footsteps, Xin Yi turned around.

I naturally recognized her eyebrows, her face, and her heart was filled with a joy that was about to burst her heart, it had been too long, and I had been separated from Xin Yi for too long before us. As long as I take her away this time, everything will be fine, and I can return to the way before, but I won't let her follow me stupidly, I will hold her hand and not let her leave again.

Yes, everything can be back on track. I didn't think much about it, I didn't think much about it, I just had a stubborn naivety that I felt that as long as I returned to the way before, everything would be fine.

It's just that the years that have passed, are they so easy to recover? I didn't even think about it.

Looking at me, Xin Yi didn't have any expression, she looked a little dumbfounded, but like this, I felt that the familiar Xin Yi was back, could it be that she had already remembered everything?

I ran as fast as I could, and soon I reached Xin Yi's side, I looked at her, gasping for breath, and she looked at me like this, as if she was a little more sluggish than before.

I don't care so much, am I not familiar with Xin Yi's appearance? She looks like this, I can only think that she came out this time, maybe she took a great risk, and also suffered a lot of pressure, I grabbed her hand, a little cold, I subconsciously rubbed her hands, and said: "How long have you been waiting here?" Why are your hands so cold? ”

Xin Yi didn't speak, just looked at me.

And the moment I held Xin Yi's hand, a trace of doubt rose in my heart, and I forced it down, and at this moment, looking at Xin Yi's appearance, the doubt in my heart was even worse.

A very bad thought began to linger in my mind, who is this Xin Yi in front of me?
