Chapter 441: Breakfast
The moon rises and then sets. The clouds gather and then disperse.
A new day, with the sun shining down, descended on the heart of the Maleno Empire, the city known as the "Castle of Kings".
The pace of life in Wangcheng is much faster than in other cities.
So early in the morning, Su Wen and the three of them, who lived in a hotel that was not up to the same grade, woke up early because of the room facing the street because the sound insulation effect was not good-of course, Ellie, whose body structure was different from that of the three, was not affected by this, but just covered the ear canal with a diaphragm and continued to sleep with her head covered.
Ellie's sleep didn't last long, and then she was grabbed from the bed by Su Wen, who had finished washing.
Next to this inn is a breakfast stall.
The store is not big, but in the room, there are even six square tables. It's just that these six tables, after counting Su Wen's four people, are only enough to fill three.
Most of the people who lived in the royal city asked for a sandwich or bread to take away to save time.
There is time to sit down and enjoy breakfast slowly like Su Wen and them, after all, there are only a few. Moreover, those who have the capital to enjoy the rush of the morning are mostly the bourgeoisie who are close to financial freedom, and they usually do not appear in such small shops.
The shopkeeper and the helper were so busy that they didn't have time to chat with a few people, and they repeated the two actions of collecting money and preparing food like a war.
However, the other two tables in the small shop seemed very leisurely, sipping a cup of steaming coffee while chatting with the newspaper.
"Hey, what's the big news at the Morpheus Hotel, why are the newspapers all written in one piece?"
"I know this, when I went out in the morning, I heard the neighbors talking, saying that it was a banquet over there or something, and there were unidentified people mixed in, but specifically, that guy didn't go into details, and the mouth of the city guards was still strict. ”
“...... Could it be, the Ancient Demon Sect?"
"Possibly! Yesterday there seemed to be martial law!" another interjected.
The faces of several people became serious, as if they were worried about the safety of Wang Cheng, but under such an environment and identity, they seemed a little worried.
"Don't talk nonsense, how can this place in Wangcheng be mixed into the Ancient Demon Sect!" An elderly man interrupted the reverie of several people: "Yesterday, that place was a grudge against a wealthy family, I heard that there were still dead people!"
"Dead?
Once the murder was involved, everyone's curiosity was aroused more and more.
"It was said that it was Baron Gao Frey's family, or a love killing! Because his lover had an adulterous affair with the young master of Dayun Logistics behind his back!
"The men on both sides also fought, and I heard that even the garden in the Morpheus Hotel was destroyed!"
"Ho, didn't you do anything at the hotel?"
"I don't know ...... this."
......
The conversation of several people reached the ears of the four people almost word for word. The three girls showed puzzled expressions at the same time.
Why, what they say is completely different from what they have experienced?
The location was indeed at the Morpheus Hotel, but if anything, shouldn't it be that Kempins was pretending to be Su Wen?
"They...... Are you talking about last night's events?" asked Ellie strangely to Su Wen.
"It seems so. ”
"But ......"
Su Wen took a sip of coffee and sighed, "Why do you still believe what they say, or do you think they know what happened better than you?"
“...... Wow, how do I know, what if something happens in the back again!"
"So at this time, you have to think more with your brain. ”
"Hush. ”
Ellie glanced unhappily and turned around to get the boss to serve five more sandwiches.
However, Mia and Yumi turned their inquiring eyes to Ellie, wanting to know what the outcome of last night's farce was.
"It's nothing, then a few doctors and the food safety department came, after all, Barry didn't faint, and then it was treated as a food poisoning incident. ”
"Cooper informed the city guards and asked them to take Kempins away, and they should still be cooperating with the investigation. ”
"Anyway, yesterday I saw a lot of people in all kinds of uniforms there, and in the end it seemed to be gone. ”
Ellie told the two of them what she had seen yesterday.
In this special period, there is nothing small about what happens. Whether it was the Morpheus Hotel, or the main people who attended the reception, even Cooper, they were inevitably interrogated by various institutions.
As for how Cooper and Ballyjimmy colluded, that's their business.
However, according to Su Wen's guess, the confessions of several people about last night must be different, since there are different places, then the various agencies led by the Security Bureau will naturally not let them go so easily.
“...... That one. Mia thought for a while, but then said, "You say, are we also wanted by them......?"
"The odds of being wanted should be slim. Su Wen said: "After all, we haven't done anything, even if Ballyjimmy will give us out, Cooper probably won't ......"
The conversation between the four of them was relatively quiet, and the people at the other tables, of course, could not hear it, and of course, they were also immersed in their own heated discussions, and they seemed very enthusiastic about this kind of "lively thing" that rarely happened in the royal city.
With mixed feelings, the shopkeeper accepted a few one-sided silver coins handed by Ellie, and skillfully retrieved some change. The four men, three women, had already added dishes nearly ten times after sitting for a long time.
It's a good breakfast for the whole morning......
Is the amount of food these people so large? It seems...... They are not very strong warriors, look at their plates, there is no waste......
With the mentality of wanting to witness how they eliminated the food, the shopkeeper actually took his attention out of his eyes and stared at a few people while he was busy.
But every time he turned back to pick up customers, and when he came back, there would be less food on their tables. After a few times, the plate that was still full just now has been wiped out......
How the hell do these people get eaten???
Until a few people left, the shopkeeper didn't figure out the problem. And he didn't have a chance to figure it out. And this question will be entangled in his heart for a long, long time.
In addition to Ellie, who is the main force to destroy food, the slimes in Yumi's backpack are soft and soft, and they also contribute a lot of strength.
Although the size of the soft food has not grown, its food volume is constantly increasing, and as long as it contains "energy", it can be used as soft food.
Usually Yumi feeds him some ordinary bread and the like, and when he is shy in his pocket, he will quietly take the soft out at night to "walk", but in fact, it is "grazing", allowing it to find food in the nearby grass or woods by itself.
"So, shouldn't we go to the royal city now?" that guy from the Ancient Demon Sect ......"
Yumi still remembered the purpose of his visit to the royal city.
"That's not a problem. Ellie said, "I think I can let Su Wen take me directly in and pull that guy out, Su Wen, aren't your stealth skills so powerful?"
After actually experiencing Su Wen's stealth technique, Ellie almost felt that Su Wen's previous actions were all grinding foreign workers. Why do you have to make things so complicated when you have such great abilities?
In fact, Su Wen's idea is very simple, because things cannot be solved. If Su Wen had to intervene in everything, then there would only be more and more things that would entangle Su Wen.
Although Su Wen also knows the truth that "the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility", but subconsciously, he adheres to the creed of "more things are better than less", and tries his best to avoid being surrounded by things.
Of course, part of this is to avoid the risk of being discovered by the system's creations.
"Wait a minute......"
Su Wen didn't answer Ellie's question, nor did he stop, but lowered his voice and said to a few people: "Have you noticed that the frequency of people looking at us along the way is a little abnormally high?"
"So we're wanted?" Mia frowned.
"Is that actually the case?" Ellie suddenly realized: "I said why a few people looked at me just now and then sped away and ran to the city guard post......
Yumi stopped, turned his head, and stared at Ellie for a long time before he said, "Why didn't you say it earlier." ”
"Oh no. ”
Ellie ignored Yumi's questioning and looked around, spotting the city guards approaching them from every corner.
"Slip away, Su Wen?"
"What do you say?"
Su Wen threw down a sentence, pulled up Yumi and Mia, and ran straight forward.
"Hey!!"
Ellie hurriedly followed.
