Chapter 45: There's a New Clue
"The merchant. Absolutely so. Mousse frowned, what the hell was going on. It's getting more and more confusing.
"I think it's better to get him," Leals leaned closer to Mousse, "just take him and ask him if he can't." ”
"It's useless, we asked him once, and he lied. If we ask him directly, it will certainly not be the truth. So," Mousse asked, "you didn't record their conversation." ”
"How can this kind of thing not be recorded, I have been prepared. Engram crystals I carry with me, and they finally come in handy. Lehris pulled out the engram in his pocket and said with a smile.
"Looks like I can't sleep again tonight. Mousse shook his head helplessly.
Tedondon has not left Busbaatar in recent days. Not only because he is coming to the Chancellor's office, but also because he has a business to do. Otherwise, he wouldn't have come here obediently. However, there are rumors in the city that there are extremely dangerous things in the second ring road, so he plans to leave tomorrow.
But just as he was about to fall asleep, he was woken up. "Who!" he was annoyed that someone was looking for him at such a late hour, and he was slapped on the face to wake him up.
But in the next moment, he didn't dare to speak. There were several people in black robes standing in front of him.
"You, you, who are you?" he stammered. These guys came to him late at night, and they were dressed in black, so they certainly didn't come to talk to him about business.
"You won't know me so soon. Mousse spoke. In order not to expose other people's voices, Mousse decided to speak himself.
"Originally, it turned out to be you!" Te Dongdong thought for a long time before remembering Mousse's voice.
"Hmph, you still remember me. ”
"Hehehe," Tedongdong looked flattering, "How dare I forget your voice." I wonder what you're looking for me?"
"You remember what you said last time. Tedongdong nodded, "Look at this thing again." Mousse tossed the engram to Tedon.
"Hero, please don't kill me, I say, I'll tell you everything I know, just don't kill me. Tedongdong pleaded bitterly.
"As long as you don't panic, I won't kill you. Mousse assured.
"Here's the thing. "Just a few weeks ago, I was doing business in Busbato. At this time, Ibia came to me and said that Lord Libidong was looking for me to make a business. He said he was going to kidnap a girl and give me 30,000 gold coins. I've made a few orders before, but I've never had that much money, so I agreed. But I wouldn't do it myself, so I hired a guy and gave him three thousand gold coins, and he was a thief. ”
"What's his name?"
"Aria. ”
"Go on. ”
"It wasn't until I handed her over to Ibia that I knew it was His Highness the Lord of the County. But it's useless to know. It was at this point that Ibiah told me that I could use the escaped Demuyi to clear my suspicions. So that's what I said to the townspeople. Then I didn't know anything. That's all I know, don't kill me. ”
"Alright, Tra, imprison him for the time being. When Mousse saw what Te Dongdong wanted to say, he immediately said, "Don't think about it, I said I wouldn't kill you, but I didn't say that I couldn't imprison you." ”
Tedongdong wanted to say something, but he compromised because he couldn't beat them, and he didn't have any bargaining chips, so he could only compromise obediently.
"The most important thing for us to go back to Tianyang Town and find out the details of that thief leader. Mousse talked about the next destination at the meeting.
Tianyang Town.
Mousse approached the village chief with his request, and the village chief told him the location of the leader of the thieves. Mousse and the others dared to go to the territory of the leader of the thieves.
A group of Seventh Squad scurried to Arria's quarters. Except for the mousse, everyone else was on standby outside.
"Whew-" Because it was noon, Aria was taking a nap.
"Smack. ”
A slap in the face woke him up. "Who! so bold. "Aria was angry and dared to disturb him during his nap, who was so bold?
"It's you again. Ariyah frowned. It seems that his memory is not bad, and he still remembers the appearance of Mousse, "Boy, you are looking for death, and you dare to slap my face." ”
"Do you think I'll be afraid of you if I can get in?" Mousse stepped forward.
Aria was taken aback, yes, there was no one to stop him, so what extent did his strength reach. "Someone. Ariyah still didn't give up and roared loudly.
But after a long time, no one came, and Aria gave up. In fact, he didn't know that it was Lils who had cast a silence barrier around him. Just a very simple magic. But I guess Aria won't know.
"What do you want?" Ariyah sat up straight.
"I just want to ask, how much do you know about Lord Semia?" Mousse went straight to the point.
"What a mess, I don't know anything. "Aria doesn't blush when she lies, she opens her mouth.
Mousse didn't say anything, and threw the engram crystal directly. After the recorded impressions were played in the air, Arria's face was very ugly.
"Anything else?" Mousse retrieved the crystal.
"I said, I'll say everything. Aria fell to her knees, as if pleading. Suddenly, Ariya pulled out a dagger out of nowhere and stabbed Mousse. Mousse didn't dodge either, and grabbed Arria's hand so he couldn't move. As soon as Mousse exerted his strength, Aria let out a cry of pain. "Don't, don't, I was wrong, I said, I said. Ariyah begged for mercy.
Mousse let go of his hand, pushed him into the chair, and said, "Say." ”
"Just a few days before we planned to arrest the Lord of Semea, Tedongdong came to me and said that he would arrest a man and give me three thousand gold coins. I want to catch so many people, and I don't do it for nothing. So I was arrested, and I didn't know anything after giving it to Tedon. Oh yes, the only thing I know is that my dagger is gone, but I really don't know who stole it, he is gone, and he is actually in your hand. Then I didn't know anything about it anymore. Really, please don't kill me. ”
Aria pleaded on the ground, but she didn't hear a sound for a long time. Quietly looked up, and the person in front of him disappeared. Aria looked puzzled and glad, fortunately I didn't fight him, otherwise I would have died.
In a hotel in town.
"Hey, there's still no useful news. Now we have no clues. Mousse grabbed his hair with a headache.
"We should find out why that Demuy ran away. Hiss, who had not spoken all this time, actually opened his mouth to say a word. Everyone turned their heads to look at Heath, and saw that he still wanted to look into the distance.
"How?" asked Mousse, ignoring the above.
"Why haven't you thought about why those big people died and fled? And at the same time that the county lord was robbed, don't you think it's strange?"
"That's right. ”
