Chapter 467: A Little Trouble
Luna made her way down the alley to the back of the inn, following the route she'd been trying to figure out the town for the past few days, picking up the few people and heading straight for the spot she had booked with Adolf outside the town.
It's just that Luna's plan is good, but there are still some minor problems in the end.
Shortly after leaving the inn, Luna plunges headlong into the intricate houses, but she always feels as if she is being targeted by something.
At first, Luna wasn't sure if the vague feeling was really what she thought, so she tentatively sped up and changed directions.
And as Luna's route quickened, the feeling of being stared at was indeed gone.
For this reason, Luna finally breathed a sigh of relief, but when Luna breathed a sigh of relief, the shadowy gaze fell on her again.
After that, no matter how Luna dodged from house to house, the gaze was always vague, sometimes urgent, sometimes loose, but every time she felt that the gaze that fell on her body was slackening, she changed her course, and when she felt safe, the gaze would fall back to her again.
It felt like I was trying to tease her.
This realization annoyed Luna.
She hadn't tried to find out this annoying existence through the intricate paths, but although she had already explored the route, she had only been in the town for a few days.
On the premise that she could not leave the smell as a guide, it was rare for her to not lose her way in this twisting and unruly smelling dwelling, but it was a little difficult to take advantage of the terrain of this place.
This toss is complicated to say, in fact, it only takes about ten minutes, it is estimated that after Adolf left the town, after turning around, he should have been waiting at the agreed place, Luna grinded her teeth, sneered, and simply stopped caring about the sneaky guy behind her, and walked directly out of this residential area.
Thorpe, who was following Luna, couldn't help but be slightly stunned when Luna paused and rushed directly in the direction of the outside of the town, and for a while he didn't quite understand why the person who was still obsessed with trying to get rid of him just now suddenly let him go.
It's just that Luna doesn't plan to continue playing this game of hide and seek with him, but her speed is not slow.
This also made Thorpe lose time to think about it, and when he saw the small figure disappear, he put aside the doubts in his heart and followed first, but for the sake of safety, he would no longer blatantly set his eyes on Luna, so that she would notice.
After leaving the residential area behind her, Luna felt that the sight that fell on her body seemed to disappear, but she didn't dare to assert it, after all, she had only been tricked in the intricate alley before, and it also made her somewhat understand that if she couldn't feel the sight, it didn't necessarily mean that the person was gone.
After leaving the residential area, there is a relatively wide street, the street is full of people, most of them are plainly dressed, and there are some vendors squatting with their necks scattered on both sides of the road, selling some firewood, rice, oil and salt necessary for life.
It's like a dividing line, separating the stone house behind Luna from the more dilapidated mud hut on the other side.
Across the mud hut was the edge of the town, and farther through the woods was where Luna and Adolf were to make peace.
Mentally checking the direction and path, Luna paused for a few moments in front of a few stalls, then turned her foot around and walked into the low, dilapidated building.
Thorpe, who fell behind Luna not far away, looked at the direction in which Luna's figure had disappeared, cursed and chased after her.
It was the end of winter, and the townspeople were far less likely to get food than the tenants in the countryside, and when the food was about to run out, Luna's actions seemed to Thorpe to be self-defeating.
Luna wasn't unaware of the dangers of traversing this slum-like area, and she hesitated when planning her path at first, but she had almost traveled around the small town, but she had only found two places where she could leave quietly.
One was the ruined place, and the other was the last time she went to find Locke's five mercenaries.
As for the rest of the places, most of them are connected to the trade routes, and the surrounding shops are full of eyeliner from the three families, and she can't go far at all, for fear that she will be discovered.
And where those mercenaries gathered, Luna thought that with her small body with insufficient strength, she could deal with a few hungry people, but against the mercenaries, even if it was a weak chicken among the mercenaries, she was a dead end.
As Luna was anxiously weaving between the low mud huts and grass nests, a familiar smell approached her from behind.
At the moment when the person behind her was about to touch Luna's body, she exerted force under her feet, jumped forward violently, spun her feet after landing, turned around and looked at Thorpe, who was slightly embarrassed and her hands were still sticking out, and asked:
"What do you want to do?"
"Get out of here with me. Thorpe silently withdrew his hand, slightly embarrassed, but without hesitation, he took a few steps forward and grabbed Luna again.
Luna dodges again, Thorpe catches again.
It wasn't until out of sight, when suddenly there was a scolding voice, that Thorpe stopped showing mercy and quickly clamped Luna's shoulder, no matter how Luna struggled, she didn't let go, but added another hand to cover Luna's mouth, and half-supported and half-hugged her and ran quickly in one direction.
Thorpe ran at full speed, even with Luna's "drag", it was quite fast, and Luna, who was covered in her mouth, only felt that the dilapidated scenery in front of her was flying by, and without even giving her a chance to react, she deviated from the established route.
When she realized the direction Thorpe was going to take her away, Luna only felt like crying without tears, and only a sentence of "fog grass" held in her throat in her heart was like a cassette, repeatedly.
"What are you ......?" Although Locke knew that Thorpe had been going to visit Luna since he left yesterday, he was obviously a little unable to react when he saw Luna, who was directly tied up by Thorpe and had a loveless face.
As soon as Luna landed on the ground, seeing that there were only five Locke around her, she immediately erupted.
Of course, given that she struggled and struggled all the way, but couldn't break free from Thorpe's grip, Luna wasn't stupid enough to make a move with the other party, and just pointed at Thorpe's nose, which was a stinking curse.
At this time, what upbringing, what etiquette, all were thrown away by her, although the education since childhood, so that she has a very limited grasp of the vocabulary that can be used to scold the street, but that look of being ruthless and ignoring any image, still directly shocked the five people present, including Thorpe.
Although they don't know Luna's specific identity, this appearance of Luna doesn't seem to be at all compatible with the young lady who appeared with a soldier that day!
