"Got it. ”

At the moment when the black shadow showed a happy smile, he was surprised to see the smug smile on Edward's face, and the cold light that originally pierced the back of his neck couldn't help but stop a little, but it was only for this moment.

The wine glass, which was almost on his lips, suddenly turned upside down between Edward's right hand, and the clay cup full of wine was smashed in the face of the person behind him by the sudden outburst!

The pottery wine glass shattered instantly, and Edward even deliberately hit the bridge of the opponent's nose with the mouth of the glass, and the bright red wine gushing out along the inertia instantly sealed the person's sight. The momentum of the original swoop was like hitting a wall, and he was instantly dizzy, and the whole person flipped backwards and flew out.

Hooded and cloaked, he couldn't even confirm his gender except for a few strands of hair, and could only vaguely discern the other's body shape - while looking at the other's appearance, Edward still didn't pause to pounce on him like a hunting beast, and grabbed the opponent's throat with his right hand like steel tongs, and threw it hard against the tavern wall. With his left hand, he lifted the saber that was placed aside and threw it as a throwing knife!

"Bang!" the man slammed against the wall, and the uncontrollable pain finally cried out, and before the cloaked figure collapsed, a strong wind howled in front of him—the sharp knight's sword easily pierced the cloak, and almost half of the sword was plunged into the wall, nailing the man to the wall like an iron nail.

"Wonderful sneak attack, although I won, but I'm still a little curious. Edward smiled and clapped softly as he walked over, as if he had just finished enjoying a good performance. With a look of anticipation, he gently removed the man's hood, and the light red curls poured out like a burning flame.

At this moment, the innkeeper was not as charming as before, and her face and hair, wet with wine, were still dripping with water, and she was breathing heavily. The plump figure hidden under the cloak trembled and curled up, and his hands clutched tightly on both sides of the spine of the sword nailed to the wall, desperately trying to pull it out.

Seeing Edward approaching, the "boss lady" immediately had a flattering smile on her face, but the voice was obviously a little panting: "Yo...... W-This little gentleman is back again?"

"There's something I'd like to ask you, eh...... The proprietress or the lady of the 'Blood Flag Brotherhood'. Edward thought for a long time before he came up with such a suitable word: "First of all, the name." ”

"Hehehe...... It's only the first time we've even met, so you're in such a hurry?" The proprietress still smiled: "The aristocratic lords of Silk Street in Xicheng District call me Mai Ruiya, but only those real old guests know what my real name is." ”

"What's it called?" Edward smiled urgently, his right hand pinching the bottom of her collarbone and neck. But she didn't care, and even deliberately straightened up her proud chest, so that Edward's palm could more easily "accidentally" touch "there".

"What's it called...... bright red lips let out a few trills softly, and the weak, boneless fingers had already climbed up Edward's shoulders, slowly slicing across his chest, then his abdomen, and then his ......

"Smack!" the proprietress froze, and the sneering Edward suddenly twisted her wrist, and with the crisp sound of bone joints, a small short sword fell from her cuff to the ground.

The black-haired boy's face was still full of anticipation and eagerness, "Can I know your name now, the lady of the venerable 'Blood Flag Brotherhood'?" ”

"Kayla Vane - you can hear enough, you dog of the Knights of the Sacred Tree!" the proprietress instantly turned hideous, and spit bloody phlegm on Edward's boots, "Sooner or later, the Blood Flag Brotherhood will make you pay!"

"How can you be so sure I'm from the Knights of the Sacred Tree?" asked Edward with a puzzled smile, unimpressed by Kayla's attitude, "Or did you already know when I came?"

"Heheheha......ha Edward, who was stunned, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and grabbed her throat violently, like a fish without water, and the air blocking her throat made her only make a "c......lucking" sound.

"I don't have much spare time to spend with you here, and if I have to, I can break your hands and feet now, and send you to the castle of the Order—guess what, the Grand Knight of Gaio Valens, would be more merciful than I am?" Edward threatened, not forgetting to make a sneer, "Or...... More chivalrous?"

However, it was clear that Kayla did not find this "bad joke" funny in the slightest, and a little fear suddenly appeared on her face - it seemed that Gaio Valence was so famous that he seemed to be "thunderous" in the Blood Flag Brotherhood.

"Y-what do you want to know?" Kayla's voice twitched as she glared at Edward viciously and coldly, "Even if you want to ask, do you think I'm going to sue you for this dog?"

"Not necessarily, I'm a very tolerant person, and I can guarantee that if you sue me, your life will not be in danger. Edward said in a deep voice, "And what I want to know is very simple: what do you want to do, what are you in the group, and finally ...... Where are your bases?"

The proprietress apparently didn't intend to sue him, and her normal thinking and sanity made Edward think that she might be waiting for reinforcements - this kind of organization, with its obvious fanatical beliefs, and even some religious flavors, had an extremely terrible cohesion, and if this woman did not go back, the enemy would probably find out......

No, they should have found themselves exposed, and perhaps even this Black gang in Spear Street was a front to deliberately lure the Knights of the Sacred Tree to their true purpose.

Kayla just stared at him coldly, with an extra determination in her eyes, as if she was ready for the last moment, pursed her lips and didn't even prepare to say a word to Edward.

A contemptuous smile tugged at the corner of Edward's mouth, and he let go of his right hand that was clamping her neck, gently wiping the blood off his cheek, which gently made Kayla slightly stunned.

"I've given you a chance, but...... Obviously, people are animals that do not know how to cherish, and they squander a lot of money only when they lose it. Edward shook his head regretfully, as if he was really helpless, and shouted behind him without looking back, "My honorable Lord Gailian Valens, how long are you going to continue watching before coming out?"

A straight figure walked in from the tavern door, a hawkish gaze swept across Kayla's cheek, and the blood-stained sword was still wiping in her hand, each step was a sonorous and powerful sound.

"Paul! Dio!" Seeing the bloodstained Gaio Valence walking in through the door, Kayla suddenly lost her voice and shouted two names, clenching her teeth and screaming at Gaio in panic: "You brute, what are you doing?!"

"Well done, this may be the first time we've caught a job. Gaiyo wasn't even interested in accosting her, and nodded indifferently at Edward, "I should be able to get a lot of useful information." ”

As he spoke, Gaio put the saber back in its scabbard and beckoned to the two sergeants standing outside the door dressed like coachmen: "Send her back to the castle's dungeons - be careful on the way, the rats already know we've found this place, and there may be more to save her." ”

"I'm sorry, Miss Kayla. With a slight apologetic smile, Edward pulled out his sword pinned to the wall. Without waiting for the "boss lady" to escape for her life, a knife had already slashed at the back of her head, and the figure full of despair and unwillingness shook slightly, and her eyes darkened and she fainted to the ground.

.................. "When did you start noticing that I was watching you?" Watching the carriage drift away, Gaio slowly spoke, and asked Edward behind him indifferently, "You can't notice my whereabouts." ”

"Yes, the city was so new to me that I didn't notice anyone stalking me. Hearing the other party's deliberate cover-up, Edward shrugged his shoulders and put his hands behind his back: "But I know one thing very well - you don't believe me from the beginning, and you will naturally not let a person who can't be trusted at all leave your surveillance." ”

Gaiyo turned his head, stared at the nonchalant smile on Edward's face, and was silent for a short time before speaking: "You did a good job today, although you didn't find out in time that this tavern was the real problem, but you still did a good job, at least the result was good anyway." ”

"I'm guessing you knew there was something wrong with this place from the beginning. Edward raised the corners of his mouth slightly, "But he lured me to the villa of the gang leader." ”

"Besides, if you're smart enough, you should find it yourself instead of finding out for information - this is the city of Turin, the holiest place and the most rotten place, and anyone can be a thug or a spy of a certain power, betraying someone for a few copper plates and a hot meal. ”

Gayor Valence glanced at Edward nonchalantly, "Come here today, you have a lot of work to do—but don't think I've trusted you." ”

"Of course. Edward tilted his head and smiled, and walked out after Gaiyo, "But it's going to be a good start, you say?"
