Chapter 369: Exposure (I)

In a small town on the mainland of Maru, a young hunter is on his way home with his prey on his shoulder, and along the way he expertly greets the townspeople who pass by the houses.

"Mel, you're back!"

"Yes, Aunt Doria!"

"Can you stay here for a while this time?"

"Well, I just went into the city and sold some inventory, which is enough to last for a while. ”

"That's good, come to my aunt's place for dinner another day, my little grandson is very worried about you!"

"Yes, definitely!"

......

"Oh, it's Mel! it's been a hard journey, that ...... What did you bring with you last time?"

"I can't forget it!, the incense powder and red brocade of the 'Thousand Hands Grocery Store'. ”

"Great, thank you so much, brother!How much?"

"Sister, you're welcome, it's just a little money, even if it's a birthday gift from my brother!"

"Oh, that's so embarrassing! I'll ask Rounido to make you a few handy weapons, bows and arrows, as a gift in return!"

"Okay, then I'll go back and invite my eldest brother to drink!"

......

"Brother Mel, when are you going to teach me to hunt!"

"When you grow up!"

"Then I'll be grown up now. ”

"Really, I heard you were crying the other day, but older kids don't do that!"

"Hmph, you hate it, ignore you!"

......

After some pleasantries, the hunter finally returned to his house, unlocked and pushed the door in, and the dim light ** the room that had been cleaned for a long time, revealing a gray scene.

Reining in the warm expression he had just made, Major coldly threw his prey on the ground, went straight to the corner of the house, crouched down and pried a stone slab into the crack in the ground with a dagger, and a small leather package lay alone in the space below.

The package was taken out and opened, and a piece of fur was taken out of it, on which was painted the texture of the lines that looked like a map.

As for why he, the top royal agent of the Aishin Empire, appeared in a remote country at the southern tip of the continent, it was all to verify the map in his hand, he reached out and took out a few scrolls of paper from his arms, unfolded them one by one, matched the content he recorded with the map, and thought about it carefully for a while, before putting these things back into the package one by one.

Rearranging the disguise, Major rolled over and lay down on the humble bed that had not been cleaned for a long time, and suddenly a faint puff of smoke and dust rose.

It's been almost a month.,The mission he was sent here to investigate is progressing very slowly.,And I don't know what his boss thinks.,Actually sent him, a person who is good at assassination missions, to carry out exploration missions.,Pretending to be an Orion to live this kind of short life in an ordinary family is definitely not what he's good at.。

Although he has received this kind of training, the actual effect is not bad, and he has successfully integrated into this town and settled down without showing any horses, but for him, it takes a lot of energy and mind, and he is still more willing to hide in the shadows and be a 'dark walker' than that.

During the break, he thought of the person he had been thinking about in his heart, presumably Neuer's life must be very comfortable now, away from the chaotic and heart-wrenching past, healing well is the best result he can get at present, of course, the most important thing is that with Xiao Yi's help, he has redressed all his comrades' grievances and freed himself from the cage of self-blame and resentment, and the relationship with himself is not as cold as before.

Thinking of this, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but turn up slightly, and at this moment, there was a rapid knock on the door.

"Who!" asked Major in a less aloof voice.

"Open the door, the city guards check!"

His heart jumped, could it be that he was exposed? He quickly recalled his recent actions and felt that there was no problem, so he suppressed the idea of pulling out his weapon and killing him, walked to the door and calmed himself, and when he opened the door, he was the same face that was tortured by life but still alive.

What caught his eye was a group of soldiers in military uniforms and armor, and one of them was staring at him with a dead fish eye.

"Adults, what are you doing?"

A little bit of trepidation but not a weak state is abstract to grasp, but it is not difficult for a professionally trained agent.

"We have received a secret report that spies from other countries have recently entered our country, and all places are investigating, and the area to which Blue Cloud City belongs is only you!"

"Yes, yes!

"Have you seen any new strangers here?"

"No, my lord, I'll report it to you if I see it!"

"Lie!"

The dead fish eyes that suddenly turned their faces almost made Major do it on the spot, and his dull eyes narrowed more like a gaze from a corpse, which was very terrifying:

"Aren't you yourself? And say no, do you think we came to the door casually! The people in this town say that you suddenly appeared about a month ago, why don't you tell the truth, I think you are very suspicious!"

When Major heard this, he immediately smiled earnestly:

"My lord, what should I have done, it's because of this! I did come to this town a month ago, but I'm not a suspicious person!

I moved from the town of Xihu in the next territory, my father passed away recently, I was so sad that I didn't want to stay in that place, I just thought that my father's hometown was here, so I moved here...... Oh, my father and Charlie the Bald, who runs the tavern, are distant relatives, and if you had asked anyone else, you should know that!

As for why I didn't say it just now, you also know that I moved here by myself and am not familiar with the place, and I don't want to cause any trouble...... Besides, I really want to behave well in front of you, but I don't deliberately treat myself as a suspicious bad person, I won't think about it if you don't say it, doesn't this just show that I'm not a suspicious person!"

"Don't be sloppy with me, I just asked you a word about Rory, it's so much, it's suspicious if you're not a bad person! Since you said that you are from Xihu Town, then there should always be a proof of identity, this can't deceive people, show it to me!"

"Alas, okay, I'll go get it, I'll get it!"

Mei Jie saw that the other party's tone eased a little, and finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and turned around to get his identity certificate as he spoke, since it was a disguised identity, these things were prepared in advance, and naturally they could withstand inspection.

But when he got to the box of miscellaneous items, Major leaped to the side, and overturned the table in front of him, and almost at the same time, seven or eight sharp arrows were nailed to the table that had just been put down, and the tail ends of the feathers were still shaking by themselves!
