"Do you want to stay at the hotel?"

A bell-like voice pulled Tiann out of the chaos that had suddenly become the focus of attention. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Well, yes. ”

Tiann nodded hurriedly.

"One gold coin a night, and after paying for it, I'll give you the key. ”

"Can I use this instead?"

Dian pulled a golden ring from his pocket. This ring was a gift from his father, but he never wore it on his hand, as a nobleman, Dian knew very well what kind of rules and regulations were followed in hotels around the empire, and he could accept things other than money as payment, and this was the only kind of small inn that was not very formal.

"It looks like pure gold, right? ”

The boss held up the ring and looked at it in the dim light.

"Is that okay?"

"How many nights are you going to stay?"

"One night. ”

"One night?"

"Yes, just one night. ”

The boss had an expression on his face that he had picked up a big bargain.

"Okay, okay, the key is for you, the first room on the left hand side of the second floor is your room tonight. ”

"Yes. ”

Tian, who took the key from the boss, didn't say anything more and went upstairs under the gaze of everyone.

The layout of the room was poor, but Tiane didn't complain, the day's escape had taken a lot of his stamina, and in fact the exhaustion now made him hardly have any extra stamina to complain about.

After touching the shabby bed in the room, that kind of Tyon did not make a trace of superfluous movements, and fell asleep cleanly.

And so the night passed without incident.

But trouble doesn't just go away easily.

Early the next morning, several men dressed as warriors entered the hotel in the light of the morning light. All of them were dressed in heavy armor, and although Scarlett also belonged to the category of warriors, it was clear that they were more suited to the title of warrior when they were wrapped in heavy armor. The only thing they have in common with Scarlett is that these men all have moon-shaped tattoos on a certain part of their bodies.

One of the men, a bald-headed warrior, walked up to the boss and asked rudely, without any politeness.

"Hey, you, have you seen Scarlett?"

Such a rude way of questioning directly aroused the disgust of the boss.

"Oh? no, do you know that you have hindered my business, why don't you leave the counter?"

The boss who shouted at the fighters tasted remorse in the next moment.

Before his companion could stop him, the bald warrior's thick arm grabbed the boss by the collar and lifted him up.

"Ahh ”

The arm, which was already an astonishing degree of strength, did not even tremble in the air after lifting the innkeeper, who looked almost as strong as himself, into the air, which shows the level of rigorous training that the owner of the arm has undergone.

The boss who was lifted into the air swung his legs desperately, trying to break free of the hand that grabbed his neckline, but to no avail, on the one hand, because the clothes worn by the boss himself were not easy to untie the collar, and on the other hand, because the difference in strength between the party being lifted and the party being lifted was too great.

"It's me who is wrong, my lord, put me down first, we have something to say, don't move your hands and feet." ”

The boss who was lifted hurriedly begged for mercy.

"Hmph. ”

As soon as the bald-headed warrior let go of his hand, the boss fell from the air where he was lifted and sat on the ground.

"I'll ask you again, have you ever seen Scarlett?"

"I see, she did come to my shop yesterday. ”

"What did she do in your shop?"

"Probably recruiting someone for you, right? Yesterday there was a new girl here to show her skills, probably because she liked her skills, after the girl taught the gangsters who found faults, Scarlett talked to the girl for a long time, but the result should have been rejected. ”

The warriors looked at each other, as if to confirm the credibility of the message, and after a brief eye contact, the bald warrior drew his gaze back to the boss.

"Do you still know what happened after that?"

"No, all I know is that after she was refused, she left the hotel, and as for where she went, as the innkeeper, I wouldn't ask her. ”

"So where is the girl you're talking about, and she should still be living in your shop, right?"

"Yes. ”

"Tell me where the girl's room is. ”

Although he wanted to hide the guest's residence, the boss gave up that idea when he saw the vicious gaze of the warrior staring at him.

"The innermost room on the second floor is the room of the two girls. ”

"Let's go. ”

After being asked, the bald warrior in the lead gave an order to the warriors behind him, and several warriors went up the stairs of the hotel together.

"Spare me, who can stand it like this early in the morning. ”

Only the boss was left in the hall complaining at the counter.

Although the warriors went to the women's room, they didn't know what to pay attention to after years of fighting, so the bald warrior kicked the closed wooden door and tried to break in.

If it were an ordinary wooden door, it would definitely be kicked open, but the wooden door in front of me was completely different from other wooden doors. In order to prevent someone from breaking in, Natsuki poured magic into the wooden door under the guidance of Phidelia.

In this way, the warrior who kicked the wooden door was miserable, and the door not only absorbed all of his strength, but even completely reflected all the force of this absorption to himself.

"Ahh

"Who's out there?" the girl's voice came from behind the door. Although it was just a simple sentence, all the fighters present had to admit that it was the most moving voice they had heard since they were born.

"We are Scarlett's companions. ”

The bald warrior was unable to speak in pain, and his companion replied with help.

"Scarlett, who is Scarlett?"

The girl's suspicious voice made the warriors suspicious of the boss again.

"Is that the woman who tried to recruit me yesterday?"

The girl's second sentence dispelled the fighters' suspicions about the boss.

"Yes, we have some questions for her. ”

There was silence behind the door, and after a while, the girl's voice sounded again.

"Something about Scarlett that I mean, is it that she's missing?"

"Yes, we hope you will cooperate with us. ”

I don't know if it was because Xia Ji immediately guessed their purpose, and the warriors unknowingly developed some respect for Xia Ji.

"Okay, wait, I'll open the door in a minute. ”

"Well, I'm sorry for your help. ”

At this moment, the eyes of one of the warriors were drawn to a figure on the other side of the hallway.

"Hey, don't you think that young man dressed in aristocratic clothes is very similar to the description of the young man who was caught by the guards at the last moment before Scarlett's disappearance?"

Following his gaze, his companions also turned their gaze to the young man over there.

"Isn't this just like that?"

Before Scarlett returned to the base, the soldiers sent the children known as street children in the city to inquire about Scarlett's whereabouts, and the information gathered was an eyewitness to a passer-by who happened to see Scarlett stop a young man dressed in aristocratic clothes on behalf of two guards. But because he had something to do, he left in a hurry, and he didn't see what happened next.

The young nobleman who was supposed to be arrested appeared here, which means that at this time, the thoughts of all the warriors led to the possibility that Scarlett had an accident when he was arrested.
