Section 66 Goodbye

See again in verse 66

"There is a ...... Two...... More than two trackers. Ashrufat said softly.

It must be noted that they had been walking to the side and had been talking softly, so they could be sure that they had not heard the conversation between the two. They also did not use words such as "Your Majesty" and "Minister" to make people immediately suspicious when they heard it. If someone is following, it's not because of what they've just been talking to.

"Where?"

"Don't look around, you'll be noticed. Ashrufat reminded in a low voice. The little girl immediately returned to her normal walking posture. "Did you just meet someone who knew you? just like that little Grufiz last time?"

"It should ...... Not really. The little girl's voice wasn't very sure. She is the queen after all, and if you want to talk about the people who have seen her face, there are not ten thousand but eight thousand in this eagle falcon city. Of course, unless you are very familiar or have a very deep impression, ordinary people do not have much memory of the face, but are impressed by the clothes. The little girl is wearing quite ordinary clothes at the moment, and when she appeared in public in the past, she was neatly dressed, wearing heavy makeup, and all kinds of accessories.

"No...... Not someone who knows you. If so, the tracking skills shouldn't be so good. Ashrufat said softly. "But it looks like it's tracking, but it's not hostile. ”

"Why do you know that there is no hostility in the Dao?"

"On the one hand, it's intuition, and on the other hand, it's because they're very stable and keep their distance. Ashrufat replied. "With so few passers-by if you're hostile, it's a good place to take action...... Of course, it could also be the one who is in charge of surveillance, and the companions are looking for reinforcements. I suggested we go back, it's been a long day out today...... Although I don't have an in-depth understanding, I should have seen the surface situation of the business zone. ”

"Well, indeed...... Business looks booming. The little girl said. "Energetic...... No, it should be said that it is full of bustling atmosphere...... Such a situation...... It doesn't seem to be the same as everyone says. ”

"What do you say?"

"Domestic business taxes are already very high, and it is difficult for businessmen to do business, so if the tax is raised, it is absolutely impossible to make up your mind about business tax. If you make up your mind in this regard, you will drive the businessmen out of the country...... It has a fatal impact on the flow of goods in the country. The tax revenue received is simply insignificant compared to the disastrous consequences...... That's probably what it means. ”

"Anyway, since we've seen enough, let's go back. I don't know what the stalker behind the road does, but I'm afraid someone will go to the palace to make sure. ”

"It's good. The little girl nodded.

......

When Nighthawk hurried in, several of his men were waiting for him on the side of the road.

"Lost it, you lost it?" Nighthawk's expression was calm, but his voice was not filled with ordinary anger. "What the hell is going on?"

"That's right...... Top dog. One of the men in charge of tracking explained, "We follow the target all the way as you say...... And then when they came here...... Suddenly I couldn't find it. ”

"Can't find it?" asked Nighthawk suspiciously.

"There were very few people on the road at the time, so we didn't dare to get too close, otherwise it would be too conspicuous. So we deliberately distanced ourselves a little bit further...... We turn the corner and then we don't see the target...... That's the way. ”

Nighthawk looked around, and on the left was the walls and ditches of the palace, which were a dead end unless he had professional tools and skill. On the right is a high wall, and on the other side of the wall are several official residences. It's not easy to climb over this wall. In between the two is a wide but secluded road. Only the railing of a lone dry well on the side of the road is slightly more prominent.

While these men may not be as reliable, they are not tracking a top-notch assassin disguised as a normal person. Nighthawk's gaze looked left and right, and the last one was on the well.

If you jump from the mouth of the well, it will really only take a moment...... But......

They came to the well. It's a dry well, and it looks like it's been here for some unknown number of years, maybe it was already there when Garunas built the city. Although I don't know what the road is for, it hasn't been landfilled, but to be honest, standing here alone, no matter how you look at it, it's a bit abnormal.

Nighthawk couldn't help but think that maybe there was something mysterious in this well.

"Have you examined this well?" he asked. As he said this, his eyes looked around the edge of the well, and then he saw the small pits for people to climb up and down. This kind of thing is normal, any well has these things, and it is dug for the well diggers to go up and down.

"Checked. One of his subordinates replied. "But ......"

"Didn't you notice that these places are very smooth and don't have moss?" Nighthawk's voice was grim. "This shows that someone has recently climbed up and down with these pits!"

"We perceive it. The subordinate replied, "There is a secret passage under the well, so we have found torches and gone down to take a look." But...... The secret passage has been sealed. ”

"I'll go down and take a look. ”

It's not difficult to climb down the well, and it's easy to enter the secret passage. It was a small passage tall enough for a man to crawl on four legs, about wide enough for two people to stand side by side. The air circulation in the secret passage is okay, at least the torches are burning quite vigorously.

The passage is straight, so it's easy to tell the way, and this leads to the interior of the palace. Nighthawk was already a palace wall above his head at the moment.

"This is it. The subordinate who led the way said, pointing ahead. "It's blocked. ”

The road ahead is indeed a dead end. When you touch it with your hand, you can feel that there is a rock in the way. Whether it's a rock or simply a rock formation, it's an obstacle that human forces can't pass through.

"In the early years, it must have been a secret passage. One of the subordinates said. "But then, probably for safety reasons, the secret passage was blocked with stones. In short, this secret passage is no longer usable...... Even if someone tried to dig up secretly, it would be impossible, because the sound of digging would definitely be detected by the patrol officers above. ”

Nighthawk checked around, and finally had to agree that what this subordinate said was correct. It's a dead end. In other words, it remains a mystery why the target would suddenly disappear.

They crawled back to the ground along the same path.

"Is that so......" Nighthawk said suddenly, as he climbed out and sat on the well railing, thinking.

"Boss, what did you say?"

"You shit, you shit, you've been easily deceived!" Nighthawk cursed viciously, he had now deduced what was going on. But maybe it's not the subordinates who blame it, but the target is too cunning. But this is not surprising, no matter how you say it, they are the Queen's personal bodyguards, and they are carefully selected shrewd and capable characters, not those simple thugs with muscles and no brains.

"We ...... How did you get scammed?"

"Idiot! That's probably how it goes...... When you saw the target disappear, you immediately hurried over here and searched for it, right? But at this moment the target had jumped into the well and hid in the underground passage. Although this secret passage is abandoned, the Tibetans are not a problem. So they changed their coats in the well, and when you were not prepared for any search, they came out of it and left in a big way. I'm sure your first instinct when you find out that your target is gone, you're panicking and looking around, right?"

He guessed correctly. This is also the instinctive reaction of man in such situations. You must know that Lu Dao's subordinates are all relatively new, and they can only be used as thugs or bodyguards. The real old experienced subordinates are busy.

It's really a pity that I didn't take advantage of this opportunity, which should be considered bad luck...... Nighthawk looked up, thinking with some disappointment. But in the next moment, he immediately drove these thoughts out of his mind. No, it's not bad luck, but it's a clear proof that the god of luck favors him. The queen sneaked out today, which means she'll definitely sneak out again!

Although it is unknown how the Queen of the Devil entered and exited, the palace itself is located in the middle of Eagle Falcon Castle. In other words, if the queen wants to leave the palace, she must go through several key entrances. If there is a group of sharp-eyed spies who can guard those key positions, then the next time the queen leaves the palace, she will be discovered.

It just so happens that there is no shortage of such spies under his command. Recently, due to the collective "disappearance" of the leaders of rival gangs, he was able to concentrate such manpower relatively easily. Of course, it doesn't seem wise to do so at the moment, because it's a great opportunity to expand your power and swallow up the leaderless gangs. But compared to this matter, compared to the benefits brought by this matter, control the Falcon City Underground World Realm...... And what is it?

......

It was getting dark.

Ashrufat stared intently at the distant sky. Last night was uneventfulβ€”the same as the duty he had experienced in the past, in fact, not to mention an accident, not even a single movement. Of course, this is normal for the Queen's Bedchamber, which is located inside the palace.

"That's just you think I don't understand anything. He suddenly remembered what the little girl had said yesterday. Speaking of which, she did look as if she knew something...... Well, maybe it's just an illusion. In fact, in this regard, he quite agrees with what Rhodia said. No matter what kind of noble blood, the age of bedwetting will still wet the bed.

There was a slight sound of footsteps in the distance. Ashrufat turned his head and saw the old woman, the lover of the legendary little girl's grandfather, who was now a special being in the palace with a transcendent status. But now that Ashrufat had learned that the old woman was far less harmless than she seemed. You must know that the reason why the little girl was able to sneak out of the palace was mainly because of the help of this old woman.

Having said that, this mother-in-law came really early today.

The old woman had gone all the way, and Ashrufat had no intention of getting in her way. Every time in the past, she had silently bypassed Ashrufat and entered the little queen's bedchamber. But this time, the old woman stopped in front of Ashrufat.
