Chapter 70: Secret Surveillance
"Yo, little girl!"
In the southern part of Wendelier City, she followed the guidance of the contract mark and easily found a magical girl standing in front of a fruit shop, and greeted the other party loudly, quite suddenly frightened. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Of course, she didn't speak to her, but through a psychic connection, without alerting anyone around her.
However, since she was able to find Alex through the guidance of the contract mark, a certain magical girl could naturally sense her arrival through the fluctuations of the contract mark, where would she be frightened by this guy's sudden voice?
So, a certain magical girl just glanced at her with disdain, did not speak, and held a somewhat familiar fruit in her hand, as if staring at it.
Like someone, Alex wore a similarly styled edelweiss felt hat that seemed to have been purchased from the same Chamber of Commerce. Moreover, under the cloak of this magical girl, she was also wearing a light gray robe jacket, with snow-white fur at the collar and cuffs, which was obviously a unique cold attire in the cold places of the north, and it looked very warm, where it was as thin as the clothes on her body, so it was no wonder that someone had all kinds of thoughts about this little girl before.
"Oh, what is this?"
Ignoring Alexie's reaction, she picked up a fruit that looked like a magical girl's hand, looked at it a few times, and questioned the middle-aged woman standing behind the fruit stand.
It was a fruit very similar to the apple of her original world, the size of a fist, the color was reddish, with a slight brown spot, and it was sniffed under the nose, and there was a very special fresh aroma, which was obviously an edible fruit.
"It's called Opalo, and it's a special fruit in the northern part of our kingdom of Chirod, with a crisp and sweet taste, and they're very popular with the nobles. Hearing her question, the middle-aged woman spoke, with the kind smile that is customary to the merchants, and suggested to her kindly: "This guest, you have come from far south, do you want to taste them? I promise you will fall in love with them! Only twelve bronze mannies are sold for a catty, which is a very rare and fair price......
Belch...... Twelve silver mannies?
Hearing the middle-aged woman's words, she couldn't help but be stunned, because someone is now in negative equity, and she can't afford to buy anything.
Before she could speak, Alex had already put down the Oparo in her hand and turned away without saying a word, as if she didn't know her, which made her feel even more inexplicably lonely and sad.
Hey, it seems that no matter what world you are in, you are pursuing the law of money first!
Finally, the corners of her mouth twitched, and she also put the fruit back in its place, keeping up with the pace of a certain magical girl, and left a sentence with some embarrassment: "Ah, this... I'm sorry, but let's do it another day......"
“... It seems that this guest is not a wealthy family, and he is still wearing such thin clothes on a cold day...... Well, no, she must have known another young lady, right? That young lady was not dressed like she was from a poor family, well, was she her servant?... However, it's not quite like what ...... is the relationship between these two people."
The middle-aged woman looked at the departing figures of the two girls and muttered to herself, looking a little puzzled about their identities.
On the other hand, the two who have gone far---
"Hey, little girl, you didn't say you were going to pay, why did you run so fast?"
She caught up with Alex and complained to a magical girl through a psychic connection, in a disgruntled tone.
"Now, stupid Xia, don't you think it's very unconvincing when this kind of thing comes out of your mouth that doesn't even have a bronze manny on your body?"
Alexie didn't bother to look at the guy, just walked silently on the road, like an ordinary pedestrian: "Or are you going to give credit to the aunt?"
“......”
To this, some penniless guy can only be speechless.
You know, she still owes this little girl a sum of money Manny, and the confidence to speak is inevitably insufficient.
"And we're not here to buy anything. ”
Alexie continued to walk on, silently explaining the situation to her, "Do you see the man on the corner of the street in front of you?, well, the tallest man with a broadsword on his back, keep an eye on me, stupid Natsu! If he slips away again, we'll be in trouble......"
"Hey, a guy with such obvious characteristics, even if he's blind, he won't lose it, right?"
Before Alex could finish speaking, she pursed her lips and replied lazily.
In fact, she had noticed that guy long before she got close to Alexie, for no other reason than that the aura that emanated from that person was the strongest in the vicinity of a certain magical girl.
If nothing else, that person is Alan DiCarr, the leader of the Daybreak Thieves!
"So, on his body, did you feel the special magic of the 'Dream Crown' fluctuating?"
After thinking about it, she asked Alex again for further confirmation.
Because, if that epic magic item isn't on this person, then even if it's Alan DiCar, it doesn't mean anything to what they're going to do, right?
"Well, it's a little faint, but I'm sure the 'Dream Crown' is on him right now!"
Alexie nodded, and said to her with a very sure tone, "Perhaps, he used something special to seal the 'Dream Crown'?" However, as a layman who doesn't know anything about magic, his method of concealment is so rough that he can't completely eliminate its breath!"
Hearing the condescending and superior tone of a certain magical girl, she couldn't help but touch her face, which is also a layman in the magic field, and inexplicably didn't want to talk.
After a moment of silence, she and Alexie disguised themselves as a pair of ordinary travelers, walking and stopping, inconspicuous in the crowded streets, completely unalert to the person in front of them.
"Well, well, now that he's identified, then, when are we going to do it?"
The thought of something made her mood a little excited, and her fingers twitching slightly under the cloak twitched slightly, and she asked Alex as she asked.
"When?"
Alexie groaned for a moment, as if she was weighing something, and soon, the magical girl gave an answer: "Let's wait for him to get out of the city, if we make a move now, with his strength, it will be difficult for us to deal with him without alarming the city guards, if it attracts the attention of some people because of the fight, it will not be good!"
As she spoke, Alexie glanced in the direction of a certain grey and black castle, apparently scrupling about something.
"Oh, that's true. ”
She noticed this little gesture of Alex and did not object.
You must know that this Wendelier city is an artery of north-south transportation, and people come and go, and there are not a few powerful people among them! Not long ago, didn't she see two guys with extraordinary strength walking into the city?
Moreover, in the fortified castle in the distance, a certain viscount nobleman with the surname of Corvich probably had quite a terrible fellow among his many men, right? Otherwise, he would not have been able to intimidate the tigers and wolves of this large territory.
Tut... Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is really not suitable for fighting in the city!
In case a sandpiper and a clam compete for the fisherman's profit, or a praying mantis catches a cicada and a yellow finch behind, then they are making wedding dresses for others.
Well, when you get out of the city, let's go and weigh how many catties this Allen head has!
She secretly said in her heart, but together with Alexie, she continued to secretly follow the guy with the giant sword on his back, until the other party walked into an inn, and it seemed that because it was getting dark, he was going to stay here for the night.
Seeing this, she and Alex looked at each other, nodded, and walked into the inn as well, and then, with the little fox's little plan, they also moved into the room next to Alan DiCar.
Tsk, the countdown to your life has begun, cunning Captain Allen!
As night fell, she sat in a chair in her room, her eyes closed, keeping an eye on what was going on in Ellen DiCar's room.
With her keen hearing, she could easily hear the slight snoring of a certain regiment commander not far away, but the corners of her mouth were slightly curved at this time, as if she was sneering.
As for Alexie, she was lying comfortably on the soft bed, asleep deeply, leaving the stalking to someone who didn't need to rest, presumably to prepare for the upcoming battle and try to recover her magic.
Time passed, the night deepened, the silver moon in the night sky outside the window gradually moved westward, and the whole city of Wendelier was already silent, silent.
Sure enough, the slight snoring of someone next door suddenly stopped, and there was a squirming of someone who seemed to have rolled over from the bed, and then, in the slight sound of the window pulling, a figure flashed out imperceptibly, crept down the slight bulge of the wall, and easily came to the ground outside the inn, seemingly unnoticed by anyone.
However, in a certain room, a pair of blood-red eyes opened, and even if the light was dim, it could not stop its brightness, like two rubies that shimmered with charming light.
"The rat looks like it's slipping away, Alex!"
Her voice was transmitted to the mind of a magical girl along the psychic connection, and suddenly, a little fox that looked like a sleeping girl also opened its eyes.
"I know. ”
Alex answered, and then, walking to the window, glancing out, said to her, "Xia, you go and help me keep an eye on him." ”
In this regard, she did not refuse, shrugged her shoulders, and also quietly came to the window, watching a figure in the distance flicker in the corner of the street, the blood condensation line in her hand appeared, hanging from the window, and asked without looking back: "What about you?"
"I'll be there then. ”
Hearing Alexie's answer, she didn't say anything, and focused her attention on a moving figure, floating away like a ghost.
Although a certain thief leader went out in the middle of the night, she was not worried that this guy had found out that she was being watched and wanted to escape, because the precious greatsword he had carried during the day was not carried by him at this time, and he only carried a short sword or other weapon around his waist.
If this Alan Dicard was not so scared that he threw away his armor and fled overnight, it was clear that he had some other purpose in going out.
Tut...... What does this guy want to go out on the big night?
She couldn't help but have some doubts in her heart, but it didn't affect her tracking.
Perhaps, her current blood puppet body still has a special talent in the dark night, because it makes her tracking technology more vivid, walking silently, like a shadow in the night, completely unnoticed by the people in front. Even, a certain drunken drunkard lying on the corner of the street, she clearly walked in front of this thing, and the guy who smelled of wine was stunned and didn't see it, still half-squinting red and swollen eyes, and his arms were raised with difficulty, trying to drink the last drop of wine in the bottle.
Secretly following the figure in front of her, carefully avoiding some patrolling city guards, she and Alan Dikar soon arrived in the northern part of Wendelier City.
"Huh, those two are ......."
Finally, when she saw the two men meeting with Alan DiCar, she couldn't help but squint her eyes.
Because, the man and the woman standing there in the distance were not the pair she had noticed at the North City Gate before, which made her very interested?
