Chapter 144: Captivity

Marshall said he was going to his mentor.

Mu Chen didn't know where his mentor lived, so he asked the thieves passing by and found Marshall's mentor's residence, but no one was there.

I don't know where Marshall and his mentor went on the big night?

He thought for a moment, and walked straight to the tavern.

Here, he saw Marshall and a middle-aged man drinking and laughing.

When Marshall saw Mu Chen, he was very excited, and hurriedly beckoned Mu Chen to come and sit.

Wait for Muchen to come over.

He pulled Mu Chen and introduced the middle-aged man on the side: "Mentor, this is the brother I met outside, called Dust!" ”

Then, Marshall introduced Mu Chen:

"Brother, this is my mentor, called Aojin!"

Ogin is of average appearance, medium build, with dazzling blonde hair, and dressed as a thief.

It's just that there are no crossbows, hidden weapons, rope darts and other weapons on Aojin's body.

He resembled the Assassin, with two daggers at his waist.

Dare to assemble a double dagger, Marshall's mentor Aokin's melee strength must be good.

Mu Chen thought to himself.

"Hello." Aujin said politely.

Mu Chen also respectfully said hello.

"Brother, you came just in time, I was about to ask my mentor for the ciphertext of the treasure map."

Marshall smiled.

Aujin frowned and said, "Marshall, don't forget, there is a new president to be elected early tomorrow morning, and I don't have time to waste on this boring treasure hunt." ”

With that, Aujin picked up the wine glass on the table, took a sip of wine, and then burped a big wine.

I don't have time to decipher the ciphertext, I have time to drink, right?

Mu Chen looked helpless, but quickly relieved.

If there is a teacher, there will be a disciple.

Look at Marshall's out-of-tune look.

can guess that Aojin, who is a mentor, is probably not very reliable.

Marshall blinked and said seriously: "This is the treasure of the real Prince of the Blood Seal, it is in Night Town, and the treasure map has been personally identified by Master Peier, it can't be fake!" ”

Ao Jin laughed and said, "There is a treasure in Night Town? Haha...."

Suddenly.

He seemed to realize something.

"You just said that it was identified by Master Peier?"

"Hmm."

"Really? Is there a treasure in Nighttown? ”

"It's true!"

Marshall said loudly.

"Then what are you waiting for, quick, show me the treasure map!" Okin rubbed his hands excitedly.

Marshall hurriedly took out the treasure map and handed it to Augin.

Aujin took it, looked at it for a long time, and finally, he put down the treasure map with a solemn face.

Watch him make this expression.

Marshall thought there was a play.

He hurriedly asked, "Teacher, how's it going?" Can you crack the ciphertext? ”

Ao Jin said weakly: "No, I can't understand it." ”

Marshall:.....

Mu Chen: ....

It seems that he was a little embarrassed by the disdainful gaze of the two.

Ao Jin scratched his head and said, "However, I know who can crack the ciphertext!" ”

"Who?"

"Our Night Town, and the most knowledgeable person in the entire Thieves Guild, Elder Tujia!"

"He...."

Marshall furrowed his eyebrows and said, "Isn't Elder Tujia a fraudster by profession?" His words .... Can you believe it? ”

"Harm, I have known Elder Tujia for many years and have a very good relationship, no one can lie to me if he lies!"

Ao Jin said confidently, "You wait here for a while, and I'll go find Elder Tujia." ”

Marshall kindly reminded: "I remember, Elder Tujia went to bed early, I'm afraid he is already asleep by now, or go tomorrow, it just so happens that tomorrow is the big day to elect a new president..."

"Pick a fart, the treasure is close at hand! Come on! ”

As soon as the words fell.

Like a gust of wind, Aujin disappeared into the tavern.

"Mentor wait for me, I'll go with you!"

Marshall shouted, then turned his head to look at Mu Chen and said, "Brother, let's go." ”

Mu Chen grabbed him and said in a deep voice, "I have something important to ask you." ”

"What's the matter?" Marshall said.

Mu Chen lowered his voice and said, "About Victor's acting president." ”

At this moment, it is the middle of the night.

There are still quite a few customers in the tavern.

Mostly Rogue NPCs, less players.

Marshall also understood the importance of the matter, and the matter about Victor could not be discussed in public.

Night Town, but there are a lot of Victor's eyeliner.

The two of them came to the corner of the tavern, a hidden place.

Mu Chen couldn't wait to ask: "You said that when Victor became the acting president, he rarely left the union base, do you know the reason?" ”

Marshall lowered his voice and said: "I don't know, Victor had a bit of an eccentric personality a long time ago, he was a loner, never drank, and never had fun, everyone said that he was suitable to be an assassin, not a thief!" ”

"Why? Aren't these two professions about the same? ”

Marshall was silent for a long time, and said slowly: "Victor is a thief, but he never steals, on the contrary, he is very murderous!" ”

"How murderous?"

"There are no less than a thousand lives on his hands."

Mu Chen's expression did not change in the slightest.

The number of people killed by Victor is not enough for a fraction of the number of people killed by Mu Chen.

"Have you ever been to the union base?" Mu Chen asked again.

"Nope."

Marshall said in a deep voice: "Since he became the acting president, the union base has been closed, and no one is allowed to enter except him and the elders. ”

After listening to Marshall's words.

Mu Chen fell into deep thought.

Seeing this, Marshall hesitated: "You shouldn't have found something out of the investigation, right?" ”

Mu Chen nodded.

Marshall swallowed and asked curiously, "What? ”

"Huh?"

Mu Chen raised his head slightly.

Marshall continued, this time asking in more detail: "What did you investigate?" ”

Hesitated.

Mu Chen whispered, "Lucia may still be alive, and she is in the base of the Thieves' Guild!" ”

"Sss

Marshall gasped.

After a while, he stammered, "Really?" Are you sure you're not mistaken?

It's been three years, and I don't know if Lucia is dead or alive, so how do you know she's being locked up in the union base? ”

Muchen told Marshall that Lucia would send an empty envelope to Paul on the 10th of every month.

And also told him about the results of the demon dog's smell tracking.

All the clues point to Acting President Victor.

Three years ago, the Elder disappeared, and at the same time, Lucia, who was far away in Flame City, received a letter that seemed to be something important, so she hurried back to Nighttown.

And Victor has always liked Lucia.

Then, she disappeared, and Victor became acting president.

After Victor came to power, he closed the union base, and he stayed in the union base every day.

Things are already very simple and straightforward.

Victor imprisoned Lucia and imprisoned her in the union base.

He killed every one of them, and Paul commissioned the adventurers who came here to find Lucia!
