Faced with an inescapable question, Tails and Fast Rope glanced at each other with great sadness.

What to do?

This is the only meaning they can see in each other's eyes.

But there is no answer.

"Huh?"

Ricky urged, "Do you still need some 'motivation' like you just did?"

Thinking of the feeling just now, the fast rope suddenly trembled.

What to do?

Facing everyone's suspicious gaze and looking at the frightened eyes of Fast Rope, Tails could only bite the bullet and speak: "We ......"

What to do?

He poked the fastrope in the abdomen, hoping that the other party would have an idea.

The fast rope shook twice, and took the words awkwardly: "That ......"

With just one word, he stomped on the surface of Tails' foot and urgently asked for help.

Ricky watched their performance amusedly.

Tails glared back at the fast rope angrily, and took over in a towed voice: "Actually, ah......"

His thigh slammed into the fast rope and told him to hurry up.

Fast Rope glanced at him in disbelief, and said stubbornly, "That's it......"

Ricky smiled.

Laughed a lot.

"Forget it......"

Ricky waved his hand, he didn't know whether he shook his head helplessly or humorously, but there was a gleam in his eyes: "Why don't you tell us everything before you arrived here?"

"Especially...... Dean's whereabouts?"

As soon as these words came out, Tails and the fast rope were in unison!

Worst.

"You guys seem to be here to do business with Tampa?" Ricky rubbed his fingers and remembered something, "Looks like helping him kill someone?"

The two princes looked at Tampa.

The tavern owner Tampa raised his eyebrows, and in the face of the eyes of the two of them asking for help, he laughed dryly: "That, I don't know......

Tails and the fast rope stiffened again.

However, many people's eyes slowly turned to the sack at their feet.

That one......

Human-shaped sacks,

Tails only felt himself break out in a cold sweat.

What to do?

Soon, Ricky's suspicious gaze slowly turned.

Turn to the sack.

Worst.

At this moment, Tails' mind seemed to freeze.

Ricky's eyes locked on the sack, and he slowly spoke: "So, what are you going to kill......"

At this moment-

"You're right!"

Tails suddenly raised his voice, resolutely stood up, and raised his head with his chest held high!

From Ricky to Hammer, to Russell and Clay, to the Masked Man, they all frowned, looking at the teenager who was behaving abnormally with bewilderment and suspicion.

Only the fast rope next to him looked at Tails who was standing in a daze: Huh?

But the next moment, Tails stomped him hard under the table!

Boom.

Under the severe pain, the fast rope expression was solemn.

In the next second, the fast rope jumped up!

He straightened his body, trembling slightly, and said with a pale face: "We really didn't appear here by chance!"

Everyone was startled by the sudden outbreak of the fast rope, and became more and more confused.

Tails took a deep breath, constantly imagining all the arrogant people in his impression, and said with a throat that only he could find: "Cut, we are here with a mission......"

He looked directly into Ricky's eyes as if he could see through secrets, and kept repeating to himself: you can't show weakness, you can't show weakness......

Notch.

From just hearing to now.

He needed to find a gap.

Keep yourself safe and escape from this death-defying situation!

"Mission?"

Ricky savored the word, narrowing his eyes:

"Really?"

This time, without waiting for Tails to remind him, the fast rope clenched his arms without a teacher.

He sneered, and with a sense of arrogance peculiar to the nobility, he stared at everyone in the tavern.

"Of course," the former Prince Exeter nodded his chin absently, "Why, that tragic Miss Marina, you wouldn't be naïve enough to think that we were really just two thieves who picked locks late at night, right?"

Marina's eyes widened, as if it was hard to imagine that the thief who had just been in a mess was now like this.

Notch.

Tails said to himself.

Notch!

"Russell Vida. ”

Tails cleared his throat and looked at the suspicious messenger.

Obviously, six years later, with his cross-dressing, neither Drill nor Russell recognized the original Prince of the Stars.

This gave Tails a lot of peace of mind.

He said proudly in the tone of an imaginary dead man's face: "You are from King Chaman, but are you really sure that in the desert, it was Dean who took the initiative to contact you?"

"Just to capture the prince back to the Black Sand Realm?"

Russell frowned slightly, and his gaze at the two of them froze slightly.

Fast Rope glanced at Tails with his peripheral vision, and the latter understood the meaning in his eyes: Please, don't stab Louzi!

Tails coughed lightly.

"Dean's mission was not to search for Prince Tails in the first place. ”

"As far as I know, not long ago, Dean himself was not sure if the target was Tails Bright Star. ”

Russell moved slightly.

This made both Drill and Ricky can't help but glance at the former baron.

"You're not one of Dean's gang at all," Tails said smugly, "Tell me, did you intercept Dean's intelligence?" or did you bribe his contacts?"

Russell frowned fiercely.

His reaction made the eyes of the chisel and Ricky look at Russell with a hint of difference.

But only Tails knows.

He's gambling.

I'm betting on whether the two messages I heard from Charman Rumba and Dean himself, respectively, are right.

If not......

Tails swallowed.

Russell frowned at Tails, his eyes heavy and deeply suspicious.

Tails felt his heart racing.

Finally, a few seconds later, Russell snorted.

"You two," Russell asked coldly, seeing Russell's gloomy face:

"Who is it?"

Very good.

Bet right!

Tails turned his head in his heart!

"Answer his question," Ricky seemed to decide not to suspect his fellow man anymore, and he pointed the finger back at the two Tails, and said coldly, "What are you guys all about?"

With his words, the mercenaries stepped forward one after another, their expressions unkind.

The surroundings were suddenly full of hostility.

Even the hammer pressed his hand into his arms and glanced at them faintly.

Fast rope a spirit.

But Tails held him down.

"Alas," Tails said, spreading his hands with a helpless look, "Maybe it's time, fast rope." ”

Fast rope tried his best to hide the sudden suspicion.

Replace it with a faint, nonchalant response:

"Are you sure?"

"Well," Tails sighed, glancing around, "and there seems to be no other choice." ”

Fast Rope's eyebrows jumped: What?

What are the options?

But he suppressed his doubts, shrugged his shoulders, and lovingly, lightly threw the topic back to Tails: "Then do it." ”

Under the watchful and suspicious gaze of the crowd, Tails whistled.

Under the illumination of the lamp, he showed a cold and ill-intentioned smile: "The stars are shining, and the darkness is dark and ......"

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the tavern, including the fast rope, was stunned!

But almost at the same time, the face of the hearer suddenly became solemn: Ricky gritted his teeth, the hammer took half a step back, Russell couldn't hide his surprise, but without exception, everyone held down their weapons!

"Bang!"

There are even quite a few people who have already pulled out the blade!

Huh?

Not quite right......

Tails was a spirit, and hurriedly stabbed the fast rope!

The fast rope, which was almost bluffed, had an idea, and took the second half of Tails's words: "Giant...... The dragon is in the air, and the shadows under the dragon's wings are endless!"

These words made everyone stunned again!

Many of them abruptly stopped drawing their swords and charging.

Tails breathed a sigh of relief.

It's so dangerous, fortunately, I knew it earlier......

"You ......," Ricky looked at the two in disbelief.

Relaxed, Tails raised his fist, coughed lightly, and chuckled, "That's right, we're the secret ......"

Everyone's eyes jumped again!

This time, it was the turn of the fast rope to pestle Tails' stomach hard by an elbow!

Bang.

Tails trembled, and when he realized that he had lost his words, he was so frightened that he quickly reversed his words: "...... 's sworn enemy!"

I almost didn't bite my tongue.

Fast Rope exhaled secretly, vowing never to act with this big tongue again.

Quiescence.

Absolute silence.

In front of them, almost everyone stared at them as if they were dead.

Surprised, surprised, incredible.

The lights in the tavern flickered constantly, and the atmosphere inside was constantly changing.

It's suffocating.

"My name is 'Saika', as you can see," I saw Tails take a deep breath, fold his arms at the side of the fast rope, and said coldly, "We are the people of the 'dark room'. ”

Fast Rope snorted coldly very knowingly, with a hateful smile, and stretched out his hand to the surroundings:

"I'm a fast rope. ”

"Dear Lady Kassan, I ask you to greet you. ”

Time seemed to stand still for a moment.

At that moment, whether it was Ricky, Hammer or Russell, their faces were as ugly as they were.

Several seconds passed.

"No way. ”

"At your age," Ricky took a deep breath, as if adjusting to the ups and downs, and said to Tails, "Isn't it too early to be an agent?"

"Ho," Tails chuckled, confident "too early?"

"You may not know - Lady Kasan has been on a mission since she was eight years old, and she has been involved in the life and death of the Kingdom Secret Branch. ”

Ricky frowned tightly, looking at Tails without letting go for a moment.

"Darkroom, why are you here?" asked the hammer silently in a deep voice.

Fast Rope sneered, looking like he was laughing at the other party's ignorance.

"Didn't anyone tell you, friends of the Shadow Shield?"

Tails, oh no, it's the new spy of the Dark Room, the young man 'Saika' raised his hand and smiled at the iron-faced Russell: "Dean is not King Chaman's spy and informant, he is a person from our Dark Room, and your information was 'stolen' from him." ”

"This Mr. Russell's words are not all true. ”

Russell took a deep breath, his cheeks twitching, his face unswerving.

This reassured Tails.

It's over.

Tails patted himself inwardly.

He was right.

"As for King Chaman's arrangement of spies in the dark chamber...... Don't worry, it's a little misunderstanding within Exeter, between King Chaman and Lady Kassan," Quickrope added knowingly, not forgetting to throw a threatening gesture at Russell:

"Madam will settle it with Your Majesty soon. ”

Ricky frowned, looking at Russell with the same gaze as before, even the chisel.

"You didn't answer my question. "The chisel is very authentic.

The atmosphere became a little oppressive.

Tails let out a breath.

"We've been out of touch with Dean for a while," he patted the table, nonchalant, "so we had to come and see for ourselves." ”

Fastrope arched his shoulders and curled his lips to one side.

"But now that we've heard about your conspiracy......"

At that moment, everyone in the tavern looked at them nervously.

I saw Kuairope raise his finger in front of his lips, and smiled slyly: "I don't know, the 'dark room' under the command of the Red Witch, is it an honor to participate in your action?"

"Or can you try to kill us?"

Tails added with a smile: "After all, there may only be the two of us left in the darkroom!"

At this moment, the faces of Ricky and the others were even more ugly than before.

"Darkroom," Hammer's breathing slowly accelerated, and he turned to Russell and cursed in a low voice, "You should have told me from the beginning!"

Russell didn't say anything, just gritted his teeth.

Tails and Fastrope stood side by side, smiling as usual.

No one knew that the two of them were in a cold sweat behind their backs.

But at this moment.

"Plop. ”

A soft sound came to my ears.

Tails paused slightly.

Everyone was stunned.

"Plop!"

There was another loud noise, louder than just now!

But in Tails's heart, it was like a bolt in the sky!

None of them.

Because of this sound......

It came from the feet of him and the fast rope.

Following the sound, Tails and Fast Rope lowered their heads stiffly like frozen ice sculptures, and then trembled in unison!

No...... No way?

This is stunned Tails.

"Poof. ”

Another bang.

But the source of the sound is already clear.

It's the humanoid sack.

No.

A person, to be exact.

A man.

A man who was supposed to die, clutching his throat in pain, was lying on the ground.

Inch by inch, he crawled out of the sack from which he had been freed.

The man's expression was tired, and his gaze was glazed.

But when he looked up and saw Tails and the fast rope, he punched hard and slammed it to the ground!

Boom!

With reluctance and resentment, the bald mercenary who came back from the dead, Big Dean, scolded fiercely: "!"

For a moment, everyone was stunned.

Whether it was Tails or Fast Rope, both of them froze in place.

At this moment, how ugly are their faces......

It's as ugly as it gets.
