Chapter 57: A Wanted Farce

Chapter 57: A Wanted Farce

When the three of them came to the south gate, they were surprised to find that the atmosphere and situation were quite abnormal, originally envisioned to be three layers inside and three layers outside, a large number of city guards sabers out of the sheath and bows wound, solemnly waiting to check the scene of the people entering and exiting, was actually replaced by the empty city gate; the bed crossbow at the head of the city was still placed at the position of the entrance of the city gate, but there was no operator on both sides; the place where many guards on both sides of the gate usually stood guard is now empty, the door hole is so open for people to enter and exit freely, and no one even collects the city gate tax required to enter the city, which is a good place for many city guards to break their heads and scramble for oil and water。

"There was no ambush. There is no murderous spirit at all. ”

Plitander said firmly.

Chenxi's delicate little nose sniffed the breath coming from the air, and expressed the same opinion as the old butler.

As soon as we entered the city, the situation inside was completely different, a large number of men and women dressed as ordinary people crowded somewhere behind the city wall, watching the few notices posted on the wall, commenting on the heads, shouting loudly, saying everything, more noisy than the city.

"Excuse me, brother, what's on it? I see a lot of people watching. Is something big happening?"

Normer arched his hand to a passer-by and asked.

As soon as the man heard this, his eyes immediately lit up, and he mysteriously pulled Normer, who was questioning, to the side, patted his chest and said that it was right to ask him, there were few people in the city who knew the truth better than him, and then told the young man that a large group of vicious thieves broke into the north gate the afternoon before yesterday, and made a special trip to the headquarters of the "Red Hot Chili Pepper Mercenary Group", and found out the famous and hot wife head Danice to seek revenge, and then it was nothing more than a cliché process such as love killing. In order to protect the people, the commander of the city guard army personally led a whole brigade of elite soldiers to intercept and search, but the result was the conspiracy of the thieves, needless to say the heavy casualties, I heard that even the noble commander, Ivan Stepierde was seriously injured, although he has returned to the city lord's mansion to recuperate, but most of the city guards who can be mobilized are deployed inside and outside the palace, leaving only a small number of city guards to patrol the city, and guard the most important north gate, the south gate has become what it is now.

The passer-by was very rapped, and told the whole story vividly, as if the "extremely vicious" thief was so cruel that he raped and killed the leader of the "Red Hot Chili Peppers" mercenary group, Danice, and how the actual second-in-command in the city, Ivan Stipild, pursued and killed the enemy alone, and unexpectedly fell into a deep siege, and fought his way through a whole group of powerful enemies, and witnessed it with his own eyes, so he was able to describe them in detail to Normer and others.

As for the three notices posted on the city wall, it is said that the city guards who participated in the round-up that day wrote down the upper body portraits of the three thieves led by them in the fierce battle, and posted them here for a bounty. Even if it is only to provide information about their hiding place, once confirmed, they will be immediately rewarded with a hundred silver korn.

Passers-by described vividly that if it weren't for the delicate girl in front of him who was one of the "vicious" thieves, he would have given a thumbs up to the heroically wounded young master of the Stipild family.

The two men in front of them were obviously from a remote area, and had never seen the world, and they did not see that the young man's mouth was wide open, and it was not difficult to stuff a whole goose egg, and the little girl simply covered her mouth with her hand, and her eyes were full of disbelief? This made the passer-by very interested, and vowed to tell the truth to the two, lest they be laughed at and ignorant.

Normer was embarrassed for a while, quietly stuffed two copper into the hands of passers-by, and said hastily, "Thank you, we still have important things to do", and hurriedly took Chenxi's little hand and left.

You must know that the more passers-by talked, the more excited they became, the more outrageous they became, describing the thieves as tall and tall, tiger-headed and leopard-eyed, holding a wide steel knife with a door leaf, and killing people when they saw them, the key was to see many idlers come forward to listen to his "story", and they began to cheer and vinegar with great interest, focusing on the details of the "group of thieves" taking turns to rape Danice, drooling, and the crooked building was a mess.

Lest the girl would hear too much, the boy hurriedly took three steps and two steps, and took her away from the nonsense passerby as soon as possible.

"Brother, wait a minute, I want to see what those thieves leaders look like, so I don't know how to avoid them by accident. ”

Chen Xijiao said with a smile, blinking playfully as she spoke, a typical fear that the world would not be chaotic.

"No, well. In case someone recognizes them on the spot......"

The young man lowered his voice and tried to pull the curious girl back, after all, as the saying goes, curiosity kills cats, and at this time he still drills into people, is it because everyone has bad eyes and can't recognize it? Although even the "terrifying" Ivan was flattened into a "lame blind dog" by the two, and no one present could help himself, the problem is that there is no need for that.

"It's fine. I don't believe it, that night in the pitch black, fierce battle, they can still see so carefully, can still draw so accurately. ”

The girl also lowered her voice, and there was a hint of persistence in her words.

The young man was very helpless, so he had to accompany her, but there were too many idlers to see the excitement, and the group surrounded the place where the notice was, and waited for a quarter of an hour, and the two finally squeezed into it to "watch" their own dignity.

When you see the three "big thief leaders" above, not to mention that Normer's mouth can stuff a whole goose egg, even the cherry mouth of Dawn is like this.

In the center of the three notices on the wall is a sturdy-looking young man, with a scruffy beard, a slanted scar on his forehead, and a lewd gaze, which at a glance shows that he is a cruel and cold-blooded man by nature, and the remarks on the top indicate that this person is the chief bandit who led the people to rape Danice;

On the left is a teenager of about twenty years old, with a standard public face, and a clearly neutral appearance, whose gender is not recognizable from the portrait at all, but according to the description of the notes, it seems that he also participated in the brutality of the female mercenary leader, which should normally be male. Of course, such a ferocious bandit is difficult to measure it with common sense, maybe it may be a woman;

On the right is a middle-aged mage, dressed in a white cloak, with a rebellious expression and a strange look in his eyes, who was the one who set a despicable trap and besieged and killed the cardinal mage Joe Pryde who had come to help the city guards.

Objectively speaking, the portrait is still quite professional, and the three thieves are painted vividly, especially in the description of their personal demeanor, they are quite attained, and they are obviously good hands from Danqing, and they usually work hard.

If it weren't for the digression, it would have gone in the opposite direction.

Dawn is convinced that by following the contents of the notice on the wall, the whole city will be hunted, and it will never catch the three thieves who tortured and killed Dynes and harmed the Commander Ivan.

Normer even noticed that these idlers around him looked at each other and discussed all kinds of details, not so much focusing on the fierce battle between the thieves and the city guards, but more on their emotional disputes with Danice, and more concerned about the "things that must be said" that happened between them and Danice in the headquarters of the "Red Hot Chili Pepper Mercenary Group".

Leaving behind a large group of melon-eating people who listened to the relish, and thought about the fever somewhere in the lower abdomen, Normer walked towards the hotel while pulling the morning light towards the hotel, while observing whether there was any abnormal situation in the surroundings, and carefully sailing the ship of ten thousand years, according to common sense, at this moment, the strongest combat power of Manny Fog City has either turned into ice slag, or has been cleaned up like a dead dog, hiding in his own kennel and licking his wounds, there is really no need to be too nervous.

In fact, this is not the case, because according to common sense, since there can be a group of his own people, who stipulates that there can be no other strong man in the city, and the strength of the three of them can appear?

"Uncle, what the hell is going on?"

Regarding this wanted farce at the city gate, as soon as Chenxi arrived in a place where there were few people, he couldn't help but immediately ask the old housekeeper.

"Without him, it's just to keep face, or to deceive the superiors and subordinates. It seems that there are also veterans in this city guard. ”

Plitander grinned, and his answer was simple and clear.

"Oh, I said!" Chenxi shook his little head and suddenly realized: "Even if you can't see the specific appearance clearly, you can't even tell whether it's a man or a woman, right?" It turned out that after doing it for a long time, I was afraid that the painting would be too real and annoy the murderer who was probably still in the city. ”

"Even the two recognized strongest combat forces in the city are finished, the city guards are up and down, I wish the murderer would leave early, who is still afraid of a long life, and they really can't be arrested?"

Normer also expressed understanding.

At this time, the girl put it to her brother's ear and whispered with a smile: "Brother, it turns out that you once tried to be rude and could not succeed, so you broke into the city in a fit of anger and raped ...... Kill that Danice. ”

"Uh......"

The young man was speechless for a while, but Chenxi didn't let him go, sighed quietly, and continued to mend the knife gently: "Why bother." If your brother wants to take a concubine, just say it generously, and your sister will definitely fulfill you. No matter what people say, she is also the daughter of the dignified earl's family, and she is a jealous person, so she should allow her brother to take her into the house. Shouting and shouting and killing, what a bad scenery. ”

Whether it is the tone or the posture, it shows the gentle and virtuous style of the big house, so that no one can find out the courtesy. It's just that all this happened to a teenage girl, which is very unbearable.

The young man's head suddenly grew for a while, and just as he wanted to clean up the girl who was deliberately making trouble, he saw Plitander's gaze turn to the side, and then several strong breaths flashed from the side of the road, and a group of knights with tall heads quickly turned into the main road they were strolling, and rushed towards the direction of the city lord's mansion.

Normer and the old butler glanced at each other, the group of people in different costumes, obviously not all the way.

The people who were at the core of the knights' group, with serious expressions and strong breaths, were wearing bright armor and a white robe on the outside, and it was they who had a relationship with them in the Valley of Doom and the Visigothic Gate, and even those nobles from the Renault family who were quite unhappy were changed into full-body armor at this moment, and their momentum was even better than that day. They were surrounded by knights dressed in the same attire, but judging by the details of their breath and clothing, it was clear that they were only attendant guards. At the front of the group was the armor of a Manny Ford City Guard officer, judging from the style, the rank was not low, at least it was a middle-level officer.

Seeing that the group of them was led by a person dressed in the uniform of a city guard officer, most likely the back of the city lord's mansion, the young man fell into deep thought.
