Chapter Twenty-Four: A Beauty in Black
The city of Anyi has strengthened its military patrols, and all the streets and alleys are illuminated by torches.
"Brother Mao, look at this situation, we definitely won't be able to escape tonight!" Xiao Jian pulled the cat brother and said nervously in the dark corner.
"Let's not run away, there must be only a dead end when we go out, I don't know how Auntie and them are doing now?" Brother Cat said.
"We can't do that much now, let's find a house in the city for now, and we'll go out of the city together until tomorrow morning." Xiao Jian said.
Brother Mao nodded, staring at the officers and soldiers patrolling outside the alley in confusion.
"You wait here for me first, I'll go out and explore the way!" Xiao Jian didn't wait for Brother Mao's response and jumped out of the alley directly.
Xiao Jian waited for a group of patrol soldiers to pass by, lowered his body and slowly advanced towards the houses on the street with the dark background cast by the moonlight behind the houses, and at each door he put his ears close to the window to listen for whether there were any residents in the house.
Brother Mao, who was hiding at the mouth of the dark alley, had been watching Xiao Jian's every move nervously, for fear that he would disturb the patrol soldiers who came and went.
After a while, the gloomy road in front of Xiao Jian was gradually replaced by a faint firelight, and Xiao Jian, who was still groping, immediately stopped probing.
"Oh no, someone's coming!" Xiao Jian took a sip, "It seems that you can only gamble!" He looked back and forth, and jumped into a nearby window.
The cat brother who was hiding in the alley only heard the sound of broken dishes in the house, and then it seemed to be the sound of someone fighting indoors, and the sound of fighting in the house suddenly disappeared when the patrol soldiers passed by with torches to illuminate the house, and everything became as if it had never happened.
"This idiot, shouldn't it wake up the people living in the house?" Brother Cat said to himself uneasily, "It seems that Brother Cat still wants me to go!" ”
Brother Cat then tiptoed to learn the way Xiao Jian walked to the window of this house and squatted down, looked left and right to make sure that no one else came, then poked his head and poked through the window paper with a finger to look in, this look frightened Brother Cat, he saw an arrow-like thing facing him from the dark window hole, and this arrow also reflected a cold white light from time to time.
"Hiss......" Brother Cat gasped.
"Come in!" A crisp female voice came from the darkness of the room.
Brother Cat was startled, and then obediently stood up and prepared to come in through the front door.
"Climb in through the window!" The female voice in the room shouted.
"Oh oh......" Brother Mao's back was cold, so he could only obediently turn back and climb into the house through the window.
As soon as his feet landed, he felt two pairs of eyes staring at him.
"Who are you?" Another female voice asked.
"What about Xiao Jian? Where is Xiao Jian? Brother Cat didn't answer his question and asked directly.
"I'm here!"
Brother Mao followed the sound and saw that there was a woman in a black tightsuit standing in front of Xiao Jian, this woman was holding a short sword, and the blade of the sword was pointed directly at Xiao Jian's throat.
"Don't move! If you want to live, don't move! "Brother Cat was about to crawl over to find out the situation, but someone forced him back with a short sword.
"Two beauties, we just happened to be passing by, please make it convenient for the two of you, and let the two of us out?" Brother Cat said with a grin.
"Dream! What are you from? What is the mission of this Anyi City? Come on! The beautiful woman who pointed her sword at Xiao Jian suddenly shouted.
"We are from the Dove Trade Union, we came to Anyi City just to take a dart mission, how do we know that someone suddenly shouted in the middle of the night, we went out to check, how do we know that this go out can not go back, the officers and soldiers behind began to chase us along the street, how can this black light blind know the southeast and northwest, in order to save his life, just find an alley to hide, but, thinking about hiding like this is not a way, I also want to find a house to rest for a night, how do you know that I met two fairy sisters here!" Xiao Jian saw that the origin of the two beauties was not simple, and the level was not low, at least they were much stronger than his level 1 characters, whether in terms of agility or strength, in order to survive and complete the task, he could only make up a lie first.
"Are you talking nonsense, thinking that we sisters are vegetarians? Dart missions must be at least level 10 to be accepted, and a team of no less than 5 people is required to pick it up, are you really so good at being coaxed when we are? The beautiful woman opposite Xiao Jian said sharply.
"Uh......" Xiao Jian was speechless for a while, because Fang had not been in the game for a long time, and he had only arrived in Anyi City, and he didn't know much about the list text tasks posted on the city wall, so he couldn't even make up a lie.
"If you don't tell the truth, then we'll kill your companion first!"
The beautiful woman who pointed at Brother Cat with a short sword suddenly pierced the skin of her neck with the tip of her sword, and immediately blood flowed, which frightened Brother Cat into a panic, and she made all the moves at once.
"Don't, don't! Two aunts and grandmothers, don't listen to his nonsense, we are true of the Dove Union, but our mission is not to dart, but to ...... Go...... Go ......" Brother Mao said, and suddenly felt that Xiao Jian was glaring at him, and suddenly he didn't dare to speak anymore.
"Speak quickly!"
This time the blade stabbed deeper, and the cat brother, who felt the severe pain, suddenly shook out of his mouth, "We sneaked into the palace to find the princess of Wei to inquire about the whereabouts of his brother Wei Tao, and after completing the task, we suddenly heard an assassin shouting outside, so we ran out in a panic and met you." ”
"I see! How many other people are there on this mission? ”
"There are 6 of us!"
"What about them?"
"After entering the city, they were all scattered!"
"Separated? Trying to lie to me again? I wonder if you're getting impatient? With that, the woman in black stabbed the short sword in her hand forward.
"Ouch! Grandma, I didn't lie to you, it hurts! It really hurts! I really didn't lie to you, I really didn't lie to you! Brother Cat shouted as he rolled on the ground in pain.
"Sister, okay, don't make a fuss, be careful to alarm the soldiers who defend the city. I look at him either he doesn't know anything, or he's recruited at all! After saying this, the black-clothed beauty suddenly turned her head to Xiao Jian, "Come on, come on!" ”
"Say? What else do you want me to say? Everything you want to know is shaken out by this life-hungry waste! Xiao Jian said sharply, "If you don't believe us, you can kill or chop you as you like!" ”。
After Xiao Jian finished speaking, he lit his neck in front of the woman in black, and suddenly revealed the scar left by the princess of Wei with a dagger, and the trace of blood was very obvious in the dark moonlight.
"How did you get the wound on your neck? You can talk about this, right? The beautiful woman opposite Xiao Jian asked softly.
