"Where did he go?" The short-haired woman was shocked and angry, she looked left and right, grabbed the collar of a passer-by on the side, and asked, "What about that person just now?" ”

Passers-by shook their heads repeatedly.

The short-haired woman angrily pushed away the passers-by and said to her colleagues beside her, "Look for them separately!" That guy must be a remnant of thieves! ”

The four pickets dispersed to both sides, searching for Xu Shuo in the crowd.

And Xu Shuo himself was lying on the roof of a small three-story building at the moment, carefully poking his head out to observe everything below - when he was surrounded by the pickets just now, he threw the short knife with magic power on the roof of the building, and then hid here with the [Thief Blade].

Looking at the hole in the wall behind the position he was standing just now, Xu Shuo couldn't help but be a little afraid.

"These people really don't hesitate to start, if I hadn't transferred quickly, I'm afraid my life would have been explained here today...... But I was unlucky enough to run into the pickets when I first arrived. ”

Xu Shuo sighed.

"I'm still waiting for Lilian here."

After another five minutes or so, Lilian came out of the guild, and when she came out, she didn't see Xu Shuo, and she also began to look left and right.

Before Lilian could get anxious, Xu Shuo threw a short knife into an alley that no one cared about, and sometimes returned to the ground with a stealing blade. When he landed, Xu Shuo felt a little weak, so he called up his personal panel and took a look, and it turned out that the amount of blue was insufficient.

(After all, I used it three times in a short period of time today, and I saw the bottom...... Looks like it's time to pay a little more attention. ）

Xu Shuo trotted out into the street, through the crowd, and in front of Lilian.

Seeing Xu Shuo, Lilian breathed a sigh of relief, "Mr. Xu Shuo, where have you been, I thought you were gone." ”

"There was a slight situation just now, I'll talk about this later, have you heard anything useful?" Xu Shuo asked.

"Well, Sakita ......"

Before Lilian could finish speaking, Xu Shuo raised his hand to stop her.

"Wait a minute, let's talk about it in another place."

Worried that the pickets would come back, Xu Shuo led Lilian into a restaurant on the street.

When Xu Shuo and Lilian walked into the restaurant, only one of the twenty or so tables was empty - after all, it was opened in a crowded neighborhood, and there were not a few guests who came into the store to rest and drink.

Xu Shuo and Lilian sat down at the empty table, ordered a scone, two fried noodles and two cups of beet juice to the waiter, and after the waiter finished writing the list and left, Xu Shuo briefly said what happened to the picket just now, and Lilian was nervous when she heard it.

"That's really dangerous...... It's a good thing I'm not here, otherwise I would definitely have to drag you back Mr. Xu Shuo. Lilion sighed.

Indeed, it was very simple for Xu Shuo to escape alone, but in a situation like the one just now, if Lilian was also there, he would not be able to take Lilian to the roof with him, and the streets were so crowded that he couldn't run away if he wanted to.

"No, with those pickets, they can't hurt you."

Xu Shuo originally meant to comfort him, wanting to say that it was not enough to drag his feet or something, but as soon as the words came out, he immediately regretted it, he looked up at Lilian, the latter's expression was really a little strange, as if he wanted to laugh to ease the atmosphere but couldn't laugh.

Lilian still minds her identity as a dragon subhuman, although Xu Shuo said that neither blood nor scales are a bad thing, but whenever she mentions this, she always has an inappropriate expression, even though it is a gift from her mother, although those scales can always protect her, but she always feels that those scales as hard as steel isolate her from the word human, making her look like a monster.

Xu Shuo knew that Lilian minded, and he would try not to mention it when he spoke, but occasionally there would be times when his mouth was faster than his mind like now.

"Then, will Mr. Xu Shuo go first by himself at that time?" Lilion asked, muttering.

Xu Shuo was stunned for a moment, this is really a proposition, the best solution is, of course, for him to hide first, and then let Lilian, who is not a thief, deal with the pickets, which not only avoids conflict with the pickets, but also does not cause riots, but although this is the optimal solution, it is not necessarily the best answer, no matter what, it will not be a good feeling to be left behind.

But what if the answer is "I'll stay"? Wouldn't it sound like "I could have escaped, but because you stayed", although the meaning of staying can be expressed in clever words, but with Lilian's slender personality, maybe in the end it will be understood that she is dragging her feet.

Xu Shuo is like a fish in his throat, and he can only make a "uh" and elongate the tail indefinitely.

Lilian also seemed to realize that she had asked an embarrassing question, and hurriedly pulled a far-fetched smile and waved her hand: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, what kind of nonsense am I talking about, Mr. Xu Shuo, don't care, let's talk about Sakita!" ”

"Uh-huh." Xu Shuo nodded.

The topic is correct.

"I inquired with the front desk of the guild, and Sakida is indeed a member of the local adventurer's guild, according to the information he registered, he lives in the No. 8 military house in the cargo port, and the front desk staff is quite nice, she heard that I was going to find Sakita, and reminded me that the cargo port is mixed, so let me be careful or something." Lilian said.

"This is the advantage of being good-looking, if I go, I'm afraid I will be interrogated first, and then driven out." Xu Shuo said with a serious face.

"Why, I think Mr. Xu Shuo is also quite ...... Handsome. The last two words Lilian said in an extremely low voice, and immediately changed the topic after speaking: "Yes, yes, after I asked Sakita, I asked her to inquire about Agu, but the other party said that she didn't know this person, and said that their guild didn't have this person." ”

"It doesn't matter, Sakita is the main thing, as long as you know his residence, whether it's Agu, a cat or a dog, starting with his neighbors, as long as you know Sakita, you can find out who killed Sakita, as long as you can find out who killed Sakita......" Xu Shuo said and suddenly fell silent.

As long as you find out who killed Sakita, you can find the Blood Moon Clan - this is a light thing to say, but will it really go so smoothly in fact? With no tools, no investigative knowledge, and limited time, trying to rely on exhaustive methods to investigate the people around Sakita, find out his enemies, and then screen out the people who started it, this is almost a fool's dream, and the chance of success is as small as trying to pick up money after trying to go out.

Thinking of this, Xu Shuo sighed.

Seeing Xu Shuo sighing, Lilian asked inexplicably, "What's wrong, Mr. Xu Shuo." ”

“…… It's nothing, I'm just thinking, maybe it's a little more reliable for us to wait for that murderous guy to come to the door in Bloodmoon Village. Xu Shuo said.

"Really?" Lilien's eyes widened, she didn't have much clue about finding someone, in her opinion, Xu Shuo would definitely be able to solve everything, she just had to listen to his command.

"Well, since that man deliberately returned to the village to dump the body, it means that the village is of great significance to him, and I am almost certain that he will come back." Xu Shuo said it well, but there was no happy expression on his face.

Lilian was a little puzzled, "Then why don't we just wait for him in the village?" ”

"It's going to have to wait, but who knows when he'll go back to Blood Moon Village? One day? A week? One month? Xu Shuo frowned, "The envoy of the Luoda Empire is here, this may be looking for me everywhere, if I don't find it for a while, maybe I won't look for it, and if I go home, it will be troublesome, we have to send Miao Zhen to her family as soon as possible, and then get in touch with the people of the Luoda Empire." So even if there is little hope at the moment, but it can only be a dead horse as a live horse doctor, since Sakida lives in this city, we bet that he was killed in the city, and we bet that the survivors of the Blood Moon clan are now in the city. ”

Hearing Miao Zhen's name, Lilian was a little distracted.

"Mr. Xu Shuo, we really ...... Do you want to send Miao Zhen back to the Blood Moon Clan? ”

"Are you reluctant? But Miao Zhen came with us to find her family, this is the only reason she came here, and it is also her long-standing wish, I promised to help her, I don't want to break my promise. Xu Shuo said.

Lilion shook her head slightly, pursing her lips, not knowing what she was thinking.

For a moment, there was silence at the table, and the laughter at the next table was a little harsh.

After a long time, Lilian muttered, "Mr. Xu Shuo, what are we going to the Lorda Empire for?" What does the Lorda Empire have? ”

"What's there?" Xu Shuo repeated the question, "There are other brave men, there are more prosperous towns, there are powerful armies, and there are so-called missions and duties...... I don't know, it's just that someone told me to do it, and I just did it, in fact, maybe I can not do it, but if I don't go to the Lorda Empire and join the other brave people, what else can I do? I'm not the kind of person who plans for the future, just get by. ”

"What if, if the emissary of the Loda Empire doesn't let me go with you?" Lilien asked cautiously, "You see, I'm not like Mr. Xu Shuo after all, I'm not a brave man. ”

"No, isn't it just to take one more person with you, the Luoda Empire is known as the most powerful empire in the country ruled by humans, will anyone starve to death if you take one more person on the road?" After Xu Shuo finished speaking, he saw that Lilian still had an expression that he couldn't let go, so he said: "If they are really like that, it's a big deal that I won't go, let's form a team and wander the world. Make money while fighting monsters, walk around the planet from east to west, and when you save enough money and have enough strength, let's go back to Chewa City, you buy the manor back, I shoveled the black scarf thief, and show off my might, isn't it good? ”

Lilian's eyes lit up, and she finally smiled.

"Well, that's good."
