Chapter 32: Halfway Attack
At three o'clock in the afternoon of the second day, Xiao Chen and Li Jia left the Magic Association and went to their residence, and Tasia, Feng Qi and two other members also went to participate in the first activity of the reading club. After the two carriages they were riding in left one after another. Six figures emerged from behind a large tree not far away.
The leader was Sancho, who had been staring at Xiao Chen and his party for a long time, the other was a young man in a gray robe, Sancho's confidant Orva, the other two were also good hands he brought from the Black Mountain branch, and the last two were natives sent to Sancho by Prato. Since the last outrage at Yepes, Marcola and Prato have had to give Sancho plenty of support.
"Lord Sancho, you see, I'm right, Xiao Chen seems to be busy doing something with his mage friends these days, and he doesn't have time to take care of that woman, they went home separately yesterday, and today too. ”
"She hasn't come out yet. Sancho said, "Is there really no way for the Magic Guild to get in?"
"Don't do that, sir. One of Prato's subordinates said, "The Sage of Time's warning not to let the Shadow Troupe get involved in the Magic Guild is no joke. A few years ago, in order to track down a suspicious wild mage, all of us who infiltrated the Magic Society were silently killed. One high-level assassin and five mid-level assassins died in our division. Master Yepes's predecessor was transferred because of this incident. ”
"yes. My lord, she will always come out, let's wait for her to come out before we do it. ”
Sancho knew that no matter how powerful the Temple of Nature was, it must respect the will of a Sage, so he snorted coldly and said, "Has the identity been clarified?"
"She is a low-level warrior, Xiao Chen will take her with her every time he comes to the Magic Association, and we guess that she may be someone that Xiao Chen takes great care of and trusts. Orva said.
"A low-level martial artist, what do you do every day at the Mage Tower?" Sancho pondered, touching the beard on his chin.
"Maybe Xiao Chen's favorite concubine. One said.
"Maybe it's a tool Xiao Chen used to curry favor with other mages? This also explains why she didn't act with Xiao Chen, maybe she was accompanying someone else at this time. Another said.
Orva shook her head and said, "I don't agree. In the past half a month, I have never seen them overly intimate. She couldn't be Xiao Chen's tool to coax others, she had never stayed overnight outside. I guess she may be Xiao Chen's very good friend or important partner, such a person is the most valuable torture. ”
"Well, there's no point in speculating here. We have wasted half a month, we must make a breakthrough, otherwise we will not be able to explain to Lord Yepes. Sancho said solemnly, "Go and set it up." Although the other party is a low-level warrior, but this is the royal capital, everything must be done cleanly, understand?"
Sancho took out a scroll and handed it to Orva and said, "Forgetting the scroll, for this kind of martial artist with average mental power, you can forcibly erase the memory of today's day." ”
"Yes. Don't worry, adults. Orva agreed.

Ye Zi finished reading the information as usual today and played with Javier for a while.
When he was about to leave, Xavier asked, "Sister Ye Zi, I have a question about the model structure, and I want to ask Teacher Xiao Chen today." ”
"Today, he's gone out of the Magic Society. He and a few magicians had a party at home. Ye Zi said.
"Can I go to the party?" asked Javier.
"This ...... You can't run around as a prince, can you? And if you suddenly run to a party, and people see the prince coming, can you still have fun? Ye Zi was already familiar with him a lot, and he didn't have too many scruples when he spoke.
"It's okay, Sister Mei will protect me. And most of the people in the mage tower don't know who I am. ”
"You're a prince!" Ye Zi said strangely.
"What's wrong with the prince, many of them don't even know my father, how can they know me. I'm just a humble kid. ”
Ye Zi suddenly realized that he was not facing Prince Harry in the information age, but a medieval prince, in which most people didn't even know the king's name, let alone his appearance.
"Well, should we ask Miss Mei for her opinion, but where is she?"
"It's okay, she's always going to pop up. ”
When Ye Zi and Javier arrived at the door of the Magic Association, an inconspicuous black carriage was already waiting there. May poked her head out of the carriage and said, "Little Javier, I heard you're going to go around somewhere else. ”
"Yes, I want to go to Mr. Xiao Chen's party. Sister Mei, is that okay?"
"Well, that sounds interesting, I'm not your mother, and I want to hide you under the covers all day. She smiled at Ye Ziye, "Then let's go." ”
Ye Zi couldn't find a reason to refuse, so he had to get into the carriage with Javier.
————————————————————
On the way from the Magic Association to the office, you will pass an abandoned riverside mansion. The house belonged to a marquis of the Litong Empire during the war of the previous two years. After the marquis himself was hanged by the king, the entire family was reduced to slavery, and the mansion was abandoned.
Outside the door of this house, across the road is a small pier, and when the house was occupied, fishermen would bring fresh fish and shrimp every morning.
When Ye Zi's carriage arrived here, I don't know who stacked some boxes of haystacks on the side of the dock, as if a ship had temporarily unloaded here. The boxes blocked the road to allow only one car to pass through, so the driver naturally slowed down to avoid debris from rubbing into the car.
At this moment, suddenly two stacked boxes in front of them fell down, blocking the road ahead. The two horses pulling the carriage were frightened and tried to dodge from one left and one right, which suddenly made the carriage difficult to control. The coachman on the seat shouted, burst out of vindictiveness, and wanted to pull the horse's head hard, at this time, several small balls flew from all sides, and they exploded on the car and the ground, bursting out a large green fog, and the coachman, who was a middle-level warrior, did not hold on for a moment, and passed out with the horse.
"There's a mid-tier warrior driving? Orva frowned, a little worried.
Orva himself was a high-ranking Assassin, and all four of his men were mid-level warriors and assassins, and it was overkill to capture and interrogate a low-ranking warrior, but he felt a faint sense of unease at this time.
But the matter has come to this point, and there is already no turning back from the bow. No matter who she is, she has to be tried properly. Anyway, they weren't prepared to hurt her life, and when the time came, they just erased the memories of these people.
When the smoke cleared and there was no movement in the carriage, Orva looked at the window covered by the curtain and said, "Be careful, go get that woman out!"
