032 Accept the commission and track down Miro.
Tuk-tuk.
As soon as they finished their discussion, the voice of the sheriff sounded outside the door.
"The porridge is ready. ”
After receiving the porridge, Bruno kicked the sheriff out on the pretext that he needed to be reassured, and instructed him to keep an eye on Aunt Mary: "It needs to be quiet here, and they must not be allowed to see each other, if they suddenly lose control of their emotions......
"I know, I know. The sheriff nodded again and again: "I'll go and tell Aunt Mary that I'm safe now, so I won't bother you." ”
Squeak.
The door was gently closed by Bruno, who nodded at the mage Christine.
The staff flashed a cloud of aqua blue light, and the mage released a calm mind, awakening the sleeping girl.
As soon as Marilyn opened her eyes, she was overtaken by a bowl of steaming wheat porridge, and then the tall and burly figure of the blonde hair came into her eyes.
Bruno's tone was unusually gentle, and his eyes were full of concern: "Eat some porridge, your mother made it herself." Seeing the indifferent girl, he sighed slightly: "If it weren't for the sheriff and their obstruction, your mother would have run over a long time ago." ”
Two lines of tears flowed from the girl's eyes, but her body was stubbornly clubbed there, motionless.
Bruno put down the food in his hand and glanced at Ronald, both of whom nodded and motioned for him to say what had been discussed. He was silent for a while, thought for a while, and asked tentatively, "Do you want revenge?"
Before the words fell, and I didn't know where the strength came from, the weak Marilyn suddenly sat up. She grabbed Bruno's arm tightly, her body trembling, "Really, really, are you willing to help me?" As if grasping at a life-saving straw, she clutched so hard that her nails sank into the flesh of her blonde hair.
Ronald nodded firmly.
Looking at the sincerity in their eyes, Marilyn's eyes welled up with tears. It was like a chain of beads with broken threads, and the large ones were hot and crystalline, dripping onto the blanket and quickly soaking it wet. Her hand was still gripping Bruno's arm, and she couldn't hear a single sound from her crying. Only the delicate shoulders trembled slightly because they couldn't bear the grief and indignation in the girl's heart.
None of the three spoke, just stood quietly aside.
Gradually, the sound of her nose twitching, the girl endured the grief and indignation, sobbed and opened her mouth: "You guys, are you really willing to help me?"
Hearing the same question, Ronald didn't show a trace of impatience on his face, he took out the E-class bronze mercenary medal, and solemnly placed it on the table: "That's right, as long as you issue a commission." ”
Staring at the inconspicuous little sign for a while, the girl suddenly shouted: "I am willing, I am willing! As long as I can kill the beast that has been stabbed a thousand times, I am willing to do anything!"
Bruno suddenly covered her mouth: "Don't get excited. ”
Woo, woo.
Caught off guard, the girl instinctively struggled, but soon, she became extremely quiet.
Seeing that Marilyn had stopped struggling, Bruno slowly removed his hand.
"I do. The girl repeated softly, and there was no doubt in her tone that she was resolute: "Be a cow and a horse, even if it is to become a slave, even if it is my rotten life, it will be done!"
Feeling the persistence in the girl's heart, Ronald suddenly recalled his original self, and his eyes flashed with a trace of water. He tilted his head slightly, holding back to keep the waves from flooding. However, his palms suddenly clenched into fists, and he was once again clenched by his own anger, and even his knuckles were blue and white.
"Tell us everything you know. ”
The mage's face did not see any waves, but it seemed to have a breathtaking momentum, which made Marilyn feel inexplicably reassured.
She held back her sobs and nodded firmly, "Please just ask." ”
Christine waited a little longer, and when he was sure that the girl's mood had calmed down a little, he tried to weigh his sentence as carefully as he could, and asked questions in less provocative terms.
In the eyes of the girl, there is only firmness. She answered all her questions, even when she mentioned the painful experience of being abused, she held back the grief and indignation in her heart and carefully said everything she knew. Unfortunately, from the subtle changes in the mage's expression, she realized that the information she had provided seemed to be completely useless.
Will they still help me......
A touch of uneasiness welled up in her heart.
Ronald, who had been staring at the girl, after sensing the helplessness in the girl's heart, he hurriedly spoke to comfort: "Don't worry, since we promised you, we will definitely not give up halfway." He picked up the medal with a solemn expression, followed Marilyn and sent the medal under her nose, and opened his mouth firmly: "I took this task!"
The blonde hair beside him also nodded repeatedly: "That's right, we asked you about that, just to learn more information." ”
"You can rest in peace, and we'll take care of the rest. The Master gave a special advice: "For your own sake, and for our sake, just keep the conversation in your heart." ”
The mage had just stood up when suddenly Marilyn shouted from behind him, "Wait!"
Ronald and they turned their heads in confusion.
Marilyn realized that she was too loud, and she subconsciously covered her mouth, but soon let go of her hand anxiously, and spoke softly and hurriedly: "On the day I was taken captive, I heard the dog say in the carriage, 'It's troublesome, I'm going to come back to pick up the priest.'" ', is this useful?"
The three of them glanced at each other, and Ronald's expression became a little excited: "Since he wants to pick up the priest, he will naturally send the priest back." ”
Bruno chimed in: "That's right!"
Ronald suddenly pressed Marilyn: "Remember, rest well, don't do stupid things!" He paused, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "I don't want to find an employer to get money when I complete the task." ”
The girl, covered in wounds, was immediately stunned and motionless.
After a moment of silence.
Suddenly.
Like a fool, she cried and laughed: "Thank you!"
Seeing her expression, Ronald was inevitably touched in his heart. He let go of his hand with a smile, then quickly turned and walked out the door: "So, just wait for our good news." His head was slightly raised, and he tried to restrain the tears in his eyes. It wasn't until he walked out of the room that he gently wiped it and buried that feeling in his heart.
As soon as he walked out of the police station, Bruno smiled and punched Ronald: "You kid, good job!"
The mage looked at the bright blue sky on the horizon: "It's almost noon. He stretched out his short wooden staff and pointed to the avenue outside the town: "Let's go, we must find a place to ambush." ”
Ronald nodded, picking up the pace of his march.
The sheriff hurriedly walked over, and when he saw that the three of them were outside the police station, he hurriedly whispered hello: "Marilyn, girl, are you still sleeping?"
Hearing the concern in his words, Ronald hurriedly replied, "She's fine." Still, it's best if you get two people to watch it out. ”
The sheriff nodded repeatedly: "I know, I'll go and see." ”
It wasn't until he walked outside the town that Ronald spoke: "I didn't expect this sheriff to be quite good." ”
"Unlike Falken, the Turing sheriffs are mostly elected by the people, so it is natural that they will have a heart for the townspeople. The mage sighed: "However, in this world where martial arts are respected, the life of the commoners depends on the spleen and surname of their lord. He pointed to the green wheat fields in the distance: "Without the protection of the lord, they would not dare to cultivate the land with peace of mind." ”
Bruno shook his head: "The so-called lords, aren't they all taken by force. He turned his head to Ronald: "In the case of Falken, it has been less than a hundred years since the founding of the country, and the founding king, Ronan Falken, was originally a citizen of our city-state of São Paulo. With his own force, he forcibly occupied a mountain forest and quickly expanded into a state. ”
Ronald didn't say anything, he lowered his head, remembered Blair's words at that time, thoughtfully.
Seeing that Ronald was a little distracted, Bruno gently patted him on the shoulder: "Hey, it was far away just now, let's quickly find a place to ambush." ”
No sooner had they reached a small mound not far from town than Ronald and the others heard a slight sound of horses' hooves in the distance. Bruno, the tallest, immediately put his arm on Ronald's shoulders and looked at the source of the sound.
"What a coincidence! It's the crest of the Vest family!"
Ronald suddenly frowned: "Are you sure?"
Bruno nodded: "At that rate, it will only take us five or six minutes at most." He turned his head and looked at the two, "What should I do?"
The mage quickly made a judgment: "I'll use magic to intercept here, and you two will ambush the side of the road." ”
"Okay!"
Ronald immediately ran down. He looked left and right, but found nothing to hide.
Bruno whispered, "Here, here." ”
He hurried to Bruno's side and hid behind the birch tree.
"Shoulders exposed, get closer!" Bruno protected Ronald with his hand, moved him back, and followed him in a low voice: "After Kerry intercepts the carriage later, you go up first, attract the attention of those soldiers, and I'll see if there is a chance to sneak attack with throwing knives!"
"Understood!"
The sound of horses' hooves is getting closer and closer.
Ronald, who was hiding behind Bruno, quietly glanced at it, and quickly shrank back.
There are four knights of the clan wearing heavy armor......
Bruno sensed Ronald's movements: "Don't look around. At the same time, a knife fell from his hands at the same time, and he squeezed it tightly in his hands.
Gotta got, gotta got.
The war horse marched briskly in the direction of the town. Behind these family knights is a delicate pony carriage, and on the front curtain of the carriage, a golden tulip stands out.
Suddenly.
A large fireball, shot out from the mound, blasted towards the side of the carriage. Before the knights could react, a beam of magic arrows followed.
