Chapter 14: Midnight Snatch (1)

Neve, an adventurer with a mysterious identity. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Before she met Alice, in such a sinister society, she undoubtedly proved that she had the strength to protect herself. However, not only that, the so-called strength also needs to be honed every day.

In the middle of the night, when everyone was asleep, in the backyard of the inn, on the dry sand, a girl with a wooden sword wielded vigorously in the moonlight.

Originally, practicing in the backyard would have been a hindrance to other guests, after all, the backyard is a public place...... Of course, this kind of problem has been solved. Because Neve had chartered the inn.

As an adventurer, Neve is also a hidden tyrant. It can be seen from the attitude with which she casually threw out the gold coins and wrapped up the entire inn in the stunned eyes of the innkeeper...... At that moment, Neve explained what a 'trench' is.

In other words, the inn was inhabited only by Neve and Alice...... Oh no, there's a man.

"Miss, I don't think I'm really good for swordsmanship. With three spurs, Jones, who was holding his arm in such pain that he was beaten to death, hurriedly raised his hand to pause.

"No, reporter, this is also to exercise your survival ability, and it is useful to learn more life-saving methods. Seeing this, he didn't rush to pursue, flicked the wooden sword in his hand, and said this, Neve really didn't have a secret in his heart.

"Are the so-called basic swordsmanship sparring so harsh?"

"You know, reporter, we haven't been together for a long time, so it's impossible to train a novice in swordsmanship in a short period of time...... Therefore, this is a quick education!" The righteous words on the surface, Neve himself as a party almost believed it.

"I didn't expect Miss to have such a relationship with me...... Thank you for your kindness, but forget about it. "Civilized Jones was well aware that he was not fit to fight.

Seeing that Jones was scared, Neve stopped pursuing.

"It's okay, I've vented enough anyway. At the beginning of the side, he sighed in a hearty whisper.

Neve didn't sleep because of his daily workouts, and Jones had to write news drafts...... Out of revenge, Neve forcibly pulled Jones to vent.

At this moment, it was the middle of the night. Neve put away his wooden sword, yawning...... It's time to sleep.

If it weren't for Alice, your accident-

"Sister, haven't you slept yet?" Neve, who returned to the room, found Alice sitting silently on the bed.

“...... Just woke up. "Alice will definitely not say the reason why she accidentally fell out of bed in the middle of her sleep and lost her sleepiness. "I just want to have a late-night snack. With that, Alice got out of bed and walked towards the inn kitchen.

In fact, there is really a feeling of hunger in the middle of the night after not being sleepy...... Even if I ate a lot of snacks during the day.

Neve followed Alice into the kitchen...... I ran into Jones, who was groping for something in the kitchen.

"Ahem, I'm a little hungry because of the strenuous exercise. "It's like a burglar getting caught, except that Jones is stealing food.

There's no way, I'm all going to ask Alice for 'coffee' for today's living expenses.

There is no way to eat it, and water may still solve the problem of fasting, so he took the small bowl in the cupboard and scooped the well water from the jar and took a sip, Jones explained very flamboyantly.

"Looks like you didn't find anything to eat. "Well, anyway, Alice, like Jones, is here to eat. The two are not embarrassed either.

"No, Miss is going out to buy supper?" Jones asked curiously after drinking the well water.

"At this point, the shops outside are probably closed. "Even if the well water is enough, Alice didn't learn Jones's behavior...... Seeing that there was no supper in the kitchen, Alice turned around and wanted to go back to her room to continue sleeping.

However, the pace of departure was interrupted. "Not necessarily, when it comes to shops, I really know that there is one that should belong to the characteristics of this Haig town...... A shop that is open late at night. Jones recalled.

"It's open late at night."

"Yes, it's open late at night. He pulled out his notepad from his bosom, flipped through it a few times, and found the information he had written, and Jones was convinced that he was not wrong. "It is said that the food sold at that shop is cheap and delicious, and it is a blessing for late-night office workers...... And the location is in the town square where we stayed before—" Jones frowned imperceptibly.

"Square ......," Alice judged in her heart...... No, it's too much trouble to go from here to the square to buy a supper and come back. "Now, Jones, how about we make a deal?" At this time, the girl with long silver hair who didn't want to go out looked at Jones with a smile.

"Let me buy a supper for Miss, and in exchange you will give me some of the supper. "It doesn't take Alice to explain, Jones can guess it. "But I'm sorry, there's nothing I can do about it...... Of course, it's not that I'm too lazy to go out. Jones looked at the notes below his notes with some difficulty.

"Don't you have no money so you can't go? The silver-haired girl pretended to be surprised...... At the beginning, he was poor and couldn't even afford to live in a hotel, so he was generously and mercifully given by Alice to live here.

However, there is no need for such a blatant revelation of pain points?

“...... Well, lack of money is also one of the elements. Jones held his forehead in pain.

"The main reason is that it's too dangerous," Jones said cautiously...... It takes a certain amount of courage to go from danger to interviews, and it belongs to the level of urban legends.

Jones also learned about the store's notes through indirect inquiries with the town's residents. "If Miss doesn't mind, please let me follow. "Of course, if there is a guy around who can fight, maybe the time will also be able to pull down the hatred?" The more Jones thought about it, the more he felt that this plan was feasible, and the soul of the journalist was burning.

Listening to Jones's words, Alice was also quite interested in the supper shop.

Of course, one thing won't change.

"I won't ask you for a supper. This sounds so stingy.

“...... It's natural. "There is no return without giving...... Jones is also self-aware.

The two seemed to finish talking, and Alice turned her head. "Neve. ”

"......" did not react.

From the beginning, listen to the conversation between the two. Neve, who was already sleepy, fell asleep on the wooden table before he knew it.

"......" forget it.

After taking the purse from Neve's body, Alice and Jones went out...... Neve, who was asleep, had an extra coat on her body at some point.
