Chapter 31: There's a Surprise Around the Corner
The speed of the flying blanket was still very impressive, and in just a few hours, several people came from Magnolia to Ghost Lotus City.
Ghost Lotus City is obviously not as prosperous as Magnoria, after all, there are no powerful magic guilds here, nor are there any famous tourist attractions.
"So, where are we going to investigate?"
A few people who got off the flying carpet walked aimlessly down the street, and it was not easy to investigate the location of the Iron Forest. The Dark Guilds are places where thugs and criminals congregate, not well-known tourist spots, so their locations are hidden and easy to find.
"The book says that the best places to inquire about the news are the bars and the ......"
At this point, Kira seemed to think of something and suddenly stopped, "Let's go to the bar where Elusa ran into them earlier." ”
Elusa next to her nodded: "I think so too." Well, Gray and I go to the bar from before, and the four of you, Kira, Natsu, Harpy, and Lucy, are in town to find out about it, and meet here in two hours. ”
"I see."
Although she promised well, after seeing Elusa and Gray leave, Kira began to trick the ignorant girl: "Let's go separately too, it's more efficient." ”
In this kind of unfamiliar place, facing a whole dark guild, Lucy was a little uneasy: "Yay? Do you want to act separately? ”
"Yes, Natsu and Harpy aren't very smart, so it's up to you to take them, I'll go it alone, goodbye!"
After saying that, Kira turned around and left without waiting for their objections, leaving behind a somewhat skeptical and confused Lucy, a silly Harpy, and a hot-blooded Natsu.
Kira wasn't lazy for the sake of being alone, she just wanted to give Natsu and Lucy a little time alone, and he was also a staunch Charlotte back then!
"There's still two hours left, so what's going to do now? Find a place to sit and have a bite to eat...... Wait, what's that? ”
Kira was talking to himself as he walked down the road, thinking about how to pass the two hours of tea time, but at this moment, he found something good in his spare eye.
"Is that the legendary ......?"
Cautiously looking around, it was good, no one around noticed him.
Humming an unknown tune in his mouth, he slowly approached the target without pretending to care, then quickly crouched down and pretended to tie his shoes, and picked up the small white card at his feet when he got up.
Kira covered the faint light from the small card with her hand, and her eyes widened in disbelief to see a seductive picture printed on the card, as well as a few heart-warming small print.
Sure enough, it's that kind of thing! I didn't expect that I could run into this by such a coincidence, and I just happened to have enough time, this is simply providence!
Kira had a mysterious smile on her face......
……
Two hours later, the food street.
"It's so cool that the whole street is 50% off!" Kira put her left hand on her waist and gently touched her stomach with her right hand, reminiscing about the delicious food she had just entered, "Ah, what an afternoon! It's almost time to meet them. ”
As soon as she turned the corner, Kira crashed into a man.
Human life is often full of accidents and accidents, although it is caught off guard by colliding with someone who comes, but who is Kira? The experienced magician only took a slight sideways step, and immediately stood firm on his feet.
But the person on the other side was not so lucky, he was directly hit by Kira, and even the thing he was holding fell to the ground.
"Bang dang! Gurgling ......"
Listening to the sound is woodwork! It's still a long strip!
Of course, the shape wasn't audible, but the thing fell out of the bag and rolled to Kira's feet.
Kira subconsciously looked down to see that lying on the ground was a wooden flute with three skulls.
Good guy, this familiar description, this special feeling, this is Aliba...... No, this is the legendary Magic Flute...... Lalabayi?
The so-called life is full of surprises, probably refers to this, right?
After only a quarter of a second, Kira was lying on the ground, and the wide white-gold magic robe behind her back covered Lalabhai on the ground, briefly blocking Kageyama's view, and then ......
Word magic is activated, text modeling, stealing beams and changing pillars!
Kageyama, who climbed up, looked a little panicked when he found Lalabhai falling out, this is an important thing, and if something goes wrong, he will be in trouble.
But after he looked up at Kira opposite for two seconds, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
"I didn't feel the magic, I was just a handsome ordinary person, and yes, our plan was so secretive, how could it be discovered? Where in this world is there such a coincidence, I am out of proportion. ”
After a lot of self-comfort, Kageyama's heart settled, got up and patted the dust on his body, took two steps forward to pick up Lalabhai on the ground, and naturally stuffed it back into the bag, and then Kira, who was still on the ground, asked, "Are you okay?" ”
One thing to say, this Kageyama still seems to be very polite, especially this standard smirk, if it weren't for knowing that he is a bad person, Kira would almost believe it!
Sure enough, this kind of style with a set of faces and a set of hearts can't be learned by a frank and straightforward person like me!
Kira took the hand handed by Kageyama and got up politely and replied, "I'm fine, I'm so sorry!" ”
Kageyama didn't expect the person in front of him to apologize first, and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, he used to scold the other side directly when he encountered this kind of thing, and he also practiced a fake smile because of this.
This person is handsome, dressed so richly, I thought he would be a gentleman, but I didn't expect to be so polite!
After reacting, Kageyama smiled and said, "It's okay, it's okay......"
After a brief pause, the two men staggered and left.
……
The streets were still full of people, Kira was late, and at this time, Elusa and the others had just returned.
"How's it going, Kira? Did you find any news? ”
Kira's face was full of seriousness, and she shook her head silently: "It's a pity that I didn't inquire...... Belch...... Inquire about the Iron Forest, what about you? ”
Elusa said, "We didn't know where the Iron Forest was, but we found out that a group of mages had gathered in Kunuki. ”
"Kunuki...... I remember that was Clover's previous station, right? ”
Clover City is where the presidents of several magic guilds hold regular meetings.
"There's only one way to get to Shamrock, and that's by train, and if you control the station in Kunuki, you can guarantee that no one will be able to get to Shamrock."
Elusa glanced at Kira meaningfully, "It seems that as you said, their purpose is to hold the presidents of the regular meeting. ”
Natsu, who was the most impulsive, immediately couldn't stand: "Then what are we waiting for?" Go and save them now! ”
"Don't be impulsive, Natsu!" Kira pressed Natsu's restless shoulder, "The President isn't someone you need to worry about, and didn't we ask Mira to inform the President before we left?" By now they should have gotten the news. ”
"All we have to do now is to deal with the mages of the Iron Forest who are entrenched in Kunuki Station."
"Oh! I'm on fire! Harpy, let's go! ”
"Hey, hey!"
"Natsu! etc......"
Before the three of them could hold back, Natsu was already flying away under Harpy's paws, and a man and a cat were heading towards Kunuki with all their might.
"Why doesn't this guy always finish talking?!"
"Isn't that good? With Natsu leading the way, we can also make it easy for us...... Let's take the train. ”
???
"What are you talking about, Kira, the enemy has Lalabhai in his hands, Natsu is too dangerous alone, we should ...... now" Elusa was suddenly speechless, her eyes staring at the wooden flute that Kira had brought out.
"You just said that the enemy ...... What's there? ”
