The early spring nights are still chilly, especially in the wilderness of Akagi, where the cold wind blows through and makes people shudder their necks and teeth. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 But the cold air gave Eko a sense of airiness, and he looked behind him, only to see that the campfire in the camp was gloomy with several freight wagons, and the grill propped up above was only a few scraps of meat for someone to sweep.

Just a few hours earlier, he had followed the convoy of the "Southerners" into the Tabor region. At that time, it was already dark, and the "Eight Fingers" in charge of leading the team, the old man who had mistaken him for a worker's call as soon as he saw him, immediately ordered everyone to camp on the spot. During this period, a herdsman grazing sheep happened to pass by the camp, and "Eight Fingers" bought a few lambs from the other party and added them to the evening meal.

The boss's generosity kept the morale of the entire team high, but the smell of the roasted lamb made Ekor uncomfortable. He waited until most of the people had eaten and drunk enough and gradually fell asleep, and then paced to the upwind outside the camp to breathe, and by the way, to sort out his thoughts for the past few days.

That day, he came to the "Southerner" in a near-trance state, only to meet Astut Richardman. In retrospect, it was not surprising that Astut was one of the owners of the inn, but the profiteer's suggestion that following Lirezzi would be able to find what the politicians were interested in was quite a thought. According to the workers, Lirezi was originally a tribal sorcerer with great medical skills and magic, but for the two days the convoy had been dozing in his wide robes, and had been tended by a one-eyed dragon. He had found a gap to sit alone with Rirexy for a while, only to notice that the boy was breathing struggling and his cheeks were flushed. How did such a sick fellow get involved with the people of the dark spirits, and where did he lead?

A cold wind blew, and Ekor subconsciously lifted her collar up. The empty, cold countryside of the Tabor region reminded him of the afternoon he spent with Rosaline, the afternoon when the sun set in the Red Room and the two sides waited for each other. At that time, they only warmed each other by instinct, they could have been so good, and he had the luxury of hoping for better. But she had to make people feel cold and find another way......

It's ridiculous to say that for a few days, whenever he was free, he would recall the words he heard through the window that day. I can't believe that Rosherine lost her temper because the guys from the security team didn't stop him to death and didn't let him get caught. What did this woman want to gain by taking advantage of him? Who did she want to curry favor with him? He remembered that before going to the military hospital, she stopped him and said that he should not take risks!

"Maybe I'm running too fast, I should ask her what she's up to......" Ika muttered to herself. Just then, someone called his name.

"Well, aren't you cold?" Not far away, a petite woman was tugging at her shawl. She walked quickly, her head lifted to the side by the howling evening breeze, and she looked like she had a wing next to her head.

"I just came out to take a breath, I haven't eaten anything with a bad smell before, and I feel a little stuffy!"

"No wonder you didn't touch much at dinner, actually, I kind of hated the taste, but it's meat after all, right?"

"That's true. Ekor laughed. The girl in front of him was so similar to Aura that he screamed out for it, and now he knew that the other person's name was Decoy, and she was an overly enthusiastic little woman.

"I saw you standing alone in the wind, and brought you a shawl. ”

Decoy suddenly untied her shawl, and she put the thing in her hand on Ekko's shoulder with her feet, and the movement was so fast that she was caught off guard, and the body temperature on the material suddenly made Ekor cramped.

"No, what are you going to do yourself?" Echo refused, but the girl in front of him was surprisingly stubborn, and in an instant, the tie of the cloak was knotted in front of his neck.

"I'll be back to the tent in a moment...... Decoy clapped his hands.

"But if you want to wait for the smell to dissipate, you'll freeze if you wear such a single one. Not...... Will the elves freeze?"

"Yes, you will also have a fever and become weak. Ekor sighed. In the past, he would have retorted in a flirtatious tone, "What do you guess?" but now, he has no intention of making fun of others. Decoy's nose was straight, and his appearance was vivid and charming, but this appearance gave him a sense of emptiness that he had missed out on the treasure.

"Then you're about the same as us!"

"It's not much of a difference. Ikor smirked, hoping that Decoy would let him go alone. However, the girl seemed to be intent on attacking, and she tilted her head slightly and was silent for a while, and then suddenly asked, "Who is Ola?"

Eko was stunned, and the other party grabbed the white and said, "Is she your friend, or is she a lover?"

"You're kidding, she didn't say a word to me...... But she's saved me a few times, and I'd love to repay her, but we've never seen each other again......" Ekko's voice grew softer and softer.

The conversation between the two turned to a dead end, and just then, a sharp whistle suddenly sounded from the left.

"What's going on?" Decoy looked uneasily in the direction the voice was coming from. Under the thick night, ordinary people's eyes are full of dark shadows.

"It seems to be coming from the night watchman, you go back to the tent, I'll go and have a look. Ego reassured, and instead rushed in the direction of the situation, reminiscing as he ran, reminiscing about the moments before the rest of the group.

I remember that when I set up camp, "Eight Fingers" arranged a vigil to ensure that there were always two people guarding the direction of the intersection throughout the night. It's not yet the time for the shift change, it's the middle of the night, no one should blow the whistle and joke, could it be that someone wants to steal something from the camp?

Thinking of this, Eko used all her strength to speed up her pace. In a few moments, the place where the two night guards were staying came into view, but there was no one there, which immediately alerted Icao. He slowed down and walked towards the cat, and suddenly saw a man lying beside the bushes, and as the distance between the two of them drew closer, the smell of blood in the air grew stronger

Finally, Ekor touched the guy who had fallen to the ground. The man was holding a whistle in his hand, and the knife wound on his left chest was bleeding. But the wound was just a few points away from the heart, I don't know if it was caused by the murderer's lack of experience or his lack of height, but I think it was this difference that gave the night watchman the strength to blow the whistle.
