Chapter 247: Infernal Affairs
Josa ran desperately forward with her skirt in her hand. There was only one thought in her mind right now, and that was to run faster and get rid of the pesky guys behind her. Originally, Josa was ordered to deliver a very important piece of information to the designated place tonight, but when she came to the door of the tailor shop called "Quick Shear", the owner of the "Quick Shear" tailor shop who was supposed to take the information she sent fell from the second floor of the cabin with a bloody face.
This may be the first time Josa has seen a dead man at such a close distance, the blood from that person has been stained on Josha's skirt, so frightened that she almost screamed, fortunately Josa remembered what the instructor said: "You must stay calm at all times, only in this way, you will have a chance to continue to survive, remember, panic will inevitably reveal your identity, after your identity is exposed, no one can save you, because this is the imperial capital." ”
So Josa resisted the horror in her heart and walked briskly past the corpse, as if she had never intended to enter the "quick cut" tailor shop. Following the methods given to him by the instructor, Josa quickly left the "Quick Cut" tailor shop, then quickly destroyed the information, and then pretended to be casual and slowly circled around the city.
Josa only walked two streets, and sure enough, he found that as the instructor said, behind him, several men dressed in quite ordinary clothes were firmly following him, Josa walked faster, those men walked faster, Josa turned into the alley, and those men followed without hesitation, this kind of performance made Josa understand that he still aroused the suspicion of the Imperial Capital Security Bureau.
So Josa simply pretended not to know anything, and deliberately walked around the street, going here and there, looking around and looking at all kinds of beautiful clothes from time to time, or teasing those cute little pets, like an ordinary girl going out to hang out.
When Josa walked into a neighborhood where civilians lived, she knew her chance to get out, because at this time of the evening, there would be a lot of children playing in the streets, and Josa took advantage of the fact that the guys who were following her were a little careless, and quickly threw a handful of copper coins on the ground, let those who were playing to snatch them, and then she picked up her skirt and ran away in a hurry.
"Oops!" Josa ran too fast, and accidentally got kicked by something on the ground, she couldn't retract it, and fell heavily to the ground, a sharp pain came from her chest, and where Josha's arms and palms touched the ground, there was also a hot feeling.
Maybe it was because the noise made by Josa when she fell was too loud, and there was a noisy footstep behind her, obviously the guys who followed Josa found the right direction, Josa didn't care about the pain in her body at this time, she gritted her teeth and desperately got up, stumbling out of the alley.
Perhaps because he had been walking in the dark alley for too long, Josa ran out of the alley and was temporarily blind due to the light in front of him, and it was here that Josa heard a woman's voice directly in front of him: "Danger! Beware of the carriage!"
"Oh no!" Josha's heart sank straight down, the sound of the coachman pulling the reins, the long neighing of the galloping horses, the sound of the wheels rubbing against the ground, and the long hot breath from the horses that had even sprayed into Josha's face.
"It's over!" That was probably Josa's last thought at the moment, because she knew that she had no time to dodge, but just when Josa thought she would be hit by the speeding carriage, a pair of strong arms hugged her hard, and then the sound of the rushing wind passing by made Josa understand that she had escaped the mortal fate.
"Are you alright?" heard the gentle voice of a young man in Josa's ear.
"Ah, I, I'm fine!" Josa's face turned red at this time, she was so big that she had not been hugged by any other man except for the occasional hand-holding with her fiancé Bart.
Slowly, Josa adjusted to the light outside, she slowly opened her eyes, and at a glance she saw a young face, this gentle young man smiled at Josa and said, "Stand firm, I'm going to let go." ”
"Oh, ah, good, okay. Only then did Josa remember that she was still being held, and she hurriedly broke free from the young man's hand, but her foot was so hard that a sharp pain suddenly came, and she couldn't help but cry: "Oops, it hurts!"
The young man was slightly stunned, he didn't know where Josa was hurt, but he could confirm that it was definitely not the carriage that hit, because he teleported directly to Josa with a misleading technique, and this young man was absolutely confident in his magic ability.
"Are you feeling better?" There was another female voice behind the young man, and Josa knew that the woman was definitely a beauty like no other in a million just by this voice, and sure enough, after a burst of footsteps, the woman's face appeared from behind the young man, and as soon as Josa saw this face, his heart immediately began to twitch, because this young woman was the Grand Consul of the Imperial Capital, Ms. Faraz.
"Fani, she seems to have injuries on her body, I see the dust on her body, and the blood under her skirt, you can find someone to take care of her. The young man who was holding Josa spoke, and Josa reacted immediately, needless to say, the person who was qualified to call Farath's nickname "Fani" to his face was probably the Magister from Cassano, Ryan.
Josa never expected that she would run into Faras and Ryan tonight, and at this time there was a rush of footsteps in the alley behind her, apparently the guys who were following Josa chased after her, Josa knew that as long as her identity was revealed, she would not want to escape at the hands of a magister, so she rolled her eyes, and immediately snorted in pain, and then her body fell into Ryan's arms softly, looking as if she was unconscious.
"Ah, how did you get involved?" Ryan said to Faras in a strange tone, "Did she have any injuries before?"
As soon as Ryan said this, he saw the ring that Josha wore on his finger, that style, it was the one of Bart, Ryan's comrade-in-arms in Thor's fortress, but Ryan clearly remembered that the ring was properly kept by Faraz, obviously it was impossible for this woman to take the one that belonged to Bart from the official residence of Farath under heavy protection, so the identity of this woman was about to come out, obviously, she was most likely the fiancée of Bart who died in battle, and Ryan They had been looking for the girl who had not been found for a long time- Josha.
