Chapter 5: The Ghost Incident in Union Card City

"It seems that we can only rest here for one night at night. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info" Glitter shrugged helplessly.

"I'm sorry. On the side, Mei Saki smiled bitterly and apologized for her mistake.

"I'd do the same if I had changed, and I don't need to apologize. Gretel comforted Misaki.

After the two got on the train to the holy city, the sound of "catch the thief" immediately sounded in the carriage, and seeing that all the passengers got up and prepared to help, the thief jumped out of the train and fled in a hurry. Looking at the depressed look of the owner, Yasaki also jumped out of the car and chased towards the thief, Gretel shouted a few times and saw that he couldn't stop Yasaki, so he reluctantly jumped out of the car and followed Meisaki to chase after him, and missed the last special train to the holy city today.

Lianka City is located in the bustling city south of the Holy City of the Staionia Empire, and as soon as she entered Lianka, she was deeply attracted and shocked by its prosperity that was different from that of Omosiri.

"We went to check in first and then went to buy some supplies. As Gretel spoke, Misaki on the side couldn't hold back his excitement and ran towards the market not far away.

Looking at the excitement on Yasaki's face, Gretel smiled and compromised: "Forget it, it's still early in the evening, it's rare to come here, so let's have fun for a while!" After speaking, he walked towards Yasaki.

"Get out of the way~"

Just as Misaki was attracted by something new that she had never seen before, there was a sound in the distance, and at the same time, the crowds on both sides of the market began to run for their lives, and for a while, the originally peaceful and peaceful market was in chaos.

"What's going on?" Gretel looked alertly into the distance.

"Get out of the way~"

The old voice reappeared, but this time it sounded much closer, until a horse roared and a young man on a horse rampaged through the market as if no one was there.

"Be careful, Misaki. Gretel had already seen that the horses rushing towards Misaki would hurt Misaki, and a flying pounce knocked Misaki down, and then after a series of hooves, the horse team that caused panic in the crowd walked away.

"It's okay, there's nothing hurt. Seeing that there was no danger, Glitter asked Meisaki.

"Ahem~" Yasaki coughed a few times because of the dust raised by the horse's hooves, and when he came back to his senses, he also asked about Gretel's safety for the first time, and said, "Is there any injury?" “

Seeing that Yasaki was not injured, Gretel's hanging heart fell to the ground, and he helped Yasaki to shake the dust off her body, and finally remembered the horse team just now.

"Who, don't you know that you can't ride horses in the market, and what if you cause casualties. “

Unexpectedly, Gretel's casual complaint shocked the pedestrians around.

"Be quiet. The shopkeeper, who was still packing up his wares, made a small gesture to Gretel not to be so loud.

It wasn't until everyone was sure again that the team had indeed gone far before that they finally let out a sigh of relief.

"Do you know who they are?" asked Gretel to the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper looked at Glitter and Misaki and said, "It seems that you are not citizens of Lianka City. “

"Yes, we are from Omosileh. Glitter replied.

"No wonder. Another shopkeeper on the side finished packing up his things, came over to help the merchant next to him tidy up, and continued: "Tazi Mujda, the son of the Marquis of Mistin, this kind of thing happens several times a day, and we are used to it. “

Despite what the shopkeepers were saying, Glitter could see the anger and helplessness on their faces, after all, such actions had affected their business.

"How can this be, doesn't he care about everyone's safety at all. Misaki asked.

Originally, he was not like this, the Marquis of Mistin was a nobleman, and he hoped that his son would also be able to inherit his title, but Mujida obviously preferred to dance with knives and guns, and yearned for a career in the military camp since he was a child, so he quarreled with the Marquis of Mistin, in order to express his firm determination to join the army, and finally began to do this kind of thing to put pressure on his father. “

After listening to the accounts of the shopkeepers, Gretel became even more disgusted with this local nobleman, because Gretel was influenced by his teacher Asa and father Elishu since he was a child, and it was his dream to become a soldier, but a soldier would never inflict his grief on innocent people.

Because of the sudden episode, Meisaki lost interest, and after the guidance of the owner, the two walked towards the hotel.

After completing the formalities, the two stayed.

Seeing that he had finished packing his things, Glitter went to Yasaki's room.

"I'll go out and buy something to use, you have a good rest, I'll be back soon!" Gretel told Misaki.

Perhaps tired from the long ride, Misaki nodded at Gretel and collapsed to rest.

Gretel walked downstairs and was about to ask the boss how to get to the nearest food store and medicine point, when he stumbled upon a corner not far away full of people, and driven by curiosity, he walked towards that direction.

"Did you hear that, yesterday an eyewitness saw it with their own eyes, it was a ghost draped in a white cloth......"

The words, apparently reaching Gretel's ears, caught his attention and squeezed into the crowd as well.

"It seems that we have to ask the military to intervene, and I don't know if there will be any danger. A male voice said timidly.

"It's such a small thing, and it seems to them that we are lying to them, and I don't think it's enough to send an army. “

Although Gretel has not fully understood the content of the conversation, for now, what this person said is indeed correct, not to mention the military, even ordinary people like us feel unbelievable.

When Gretel was talking nonsense and was about to leave, he heard another person say: "There are really witnesses this time, Os, who lives in Building 13 in the East District, saw it, and is still lying in bed because of excessive fright." “

Listening to the more and more outrageous conversations, Glitter couldn't help but smile from the bottom of his heart and turned away.

After buying the things he needed, Gretel, who was returning from the bustling city of Lianka, stopped at a street corner and looked at the picture of a father in the distance kindly teaching his son's swordsmanship, which made Gretel's heart can't help but have memories and thoughts of Asa again.

Because of the relationship between Elishu and Asasaki, Glitter has often played at Asasa's house since he was a child, and Sprouts and Sprouts are childhood sweethearts, due to the influence of his father's soldiers, growing up to become a soldier has become Gretel's unswerving dream since childhood, after seeing Glitter have such awareness and determination, Asazuo has taught Glitter swordsmanship and life since he was a child, so the relationship between the two has been very special since childhood.

The memories of the past reminded Gretel of the "North Plains" incident that year, and he couldn't help gritting his teeth in annoyance and ran back to the hotel.

Late at night, Gretel tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, so he simply got up and went outside, maybe with Gretel with him, from the exhaustion after leaving Omosiri suddenly hit, Bud Saki slept very soundly, even when Gretel, who was not sleepy because he was thinking about things, walked outside Bud Saki's room, he could hear the snoring sound coming from inside.

"It's still the same as when I was a child, and I don't sleep like a girl at all. Gretel laughed and whispered outside the room.

Leaving the empire for 10 years, not to mention Bud Saki, even Glitter was surprised by the great changes that happened in front of him, Grett who came to the balcony alone looked at the strange and familiar country in front of him, and his thoughts returned to 10 years ago, in order to shoulder the burden of being able to protect Bud Saki, Elishu entrusted Bud Saki to Yajia, and took Glitter to the south of the polar region to exercise Gret's martial arts and will in the severe cold, during that time Glitter is still scary in retrospect, but the only thing that makes him happy is that he relied on his understanding of what Asa taught back then, and actually learned the teacher's stunt that year, Sakura Blowing Snow。

"簌簌~"

The city of Lianka, already covered in night, was very quiet, and a sudden noise in the distance immediately alerted Gretel.

Just as Glitter was about to make a decision on whether to go and see what was going on, a white shadow flew over the eaves in the distance, Glitter did not hesitate, and immediately ran back to the room, and once again heard the snoring sound from the room of the bud, he breathed a sigh of relief, returned to his room and picked up the Hongyun double sword, and ran out of the hotel, chasing towards the white shadow.

In order not to be noticed by the White Shadow, Glitter kept a long tracking distance all the time.

"It seems that the ghost that everyone is spreading is not necessarily nonsense, now it depends on who made this prank and the purpose behind it. Gretel muttered to himself as he tracked the white shadow.

Late at night on the streets of Lianka City, Gretel has been aimlessly tracking the White Shadow Man through several streets and alleys, and finally stopped in a dark alley.

"It's slow. At this time, a black shadow man who had been waiting for a long time approached the white shadow man.

"There's no way, I can only come out so late, or I won't be able to do anything. The White Shadow Man said.

Gretel, who was hiding on the side, listened to the conversation between the two and verified his previous guess in his heart.

"Did you find anything after checking?" asked the Shadow Man to the White Shadow Man.

The white shadow man shook his head, looked dejected, waved his hands and replied: "It can only be done secretly, and you can't inquire about anything, how can you come to a conclusion so quickly." “

The Black Shadow Man seemed to have thought of this, so after listening to the White Shadow Man's words, he didn't say anything, and just when he looked up, through the moonlight, he spotted Gretel's shadow who was hiding not far away and eavesdropping.

"Go, someone. The Black Shadow Man noticed that something was wrong, and immediately motioned for the White Shadow Man to retreat.

Gretel, who didn't find out the strength of the other party and didn't fully grasp it, didn't choose to continue tracking rashly, and seeing that the other party had no intention of wanting his own life, Gretel sighed. But the conversation between the two just now made Gretel a little concerned, although he didn't know whether the other party was friend or foe, but he always felt that there was a conspiracy that seemed to be brewing invisibly.

"Eh~!I slept so comfortably last night!" Early in the morning, Mei Saki stretched her waist and yawned, apparently last night's sleep made her completely recover.

"But I didn't think so, including the whole hotel, and thought that a wild boar had rushed in the middle of the night. Glitter looked at Mei Saki angrily, and spat out bitterness for her snoring last night.

Gretel's words resonated with the guests around, and all the guests on the spot cast a non-malicious smile, making Mei Saki suddenly lower her head in embarrassment, and hurriedly apologize to the guests around.

"Alright, hurry up and eat, we have to catch the nearest train to the Holy City. Glitter said to Misaki.

When the two of them arrived at the station, it was still early for the car to enter, and they decided to find a place to sit for a while, and as soon as they sat down, there was a beautiful sound of a whimsola in the distance, accompanied by the sound of a bard singing something in a looming voice.

"Descendants of light, open the wings of prophecy, if there is peace, I would like to turn into a guide of light, and drive the gears of destiny to spin again. If I were a human being, I would like to turn into the power of God, rewrite the course of history, and compose a magnificent ......."

The bard walks past Gretel and Misaki in beautiful verses.

Just as Misaki was attracted by the beautiful verses and was intoxicated by the listening, the bard stopped and sang again with his back to Misaki:

"When the smile of light blooms again, the gears of fate spin again, it is destruction, it is rebirth, it depends on the respect of the world for the guide of light. “

Just when Mei Saki was puzzled about what the poet was singing, he was puzzled.

The bard stopped playing the lure and turned his back to Misaki and said, "Protect yourself!"

Then he walked away.
