Chapter 12: A Journey to Find Syk in the Hotel of Horrors

As soon as they reached the counter, they saw a dirty man who had just checked in, grabbing a wine bottle and walking upstairs. After a few steps, a small packet of white powder fell out of his pocket, which he bent down to pick up and continued.

Naimo looked at this scene, raised his right eyebrow, turned back to Seren and Shuilonu, and said, "Three choices: First, send Shuilonu's sister to a high-priced hotel in a safe and secure area, where the two of us men live, and pick her up after finding out the whereabouts of Xike. 2. Sister Shuilonu went with the reliable knight lord to stay in a safe hotel, and I stayed here. I recommend two. This kind of place is only suitable for people like Nemo and Rick who are used to the criminal world.

"Three?" Shuilonu asked.

Nemo lowered the corners of his mouth and sighed, as if he knew that Shuilonu would ask, "You can live here, but we live in a four-person room, and you must stay under our protection at all times, and you can't be left alone for a second. 」

Schuilon pursed his lips in consideration. She already sensed something was wrong when she approached the area, someone would sneak a peek at her, not the kind of "look at beautiful women" she usually received, but a very unfriendly look that treated her as a tool or a gold mine. Nemo and Seren's temperament and muscles alone could have avoided being targeted by criminals, but she looked like an ideal target for crime. She had deliberately not brought any brand-name goods with her on this trip, but this area was too chaotic and very dangerous for ordinary people.

Before the three of them were talking, a police car stopped on the road outside, and the police in the car got out of the car to set up a temporary checkpoint, and they all carried a charge gun.

The level of danger in an area can be seen from the police deployment. The three fell silent.

"I live here. Shuilonu said earnestly, forcefully.

"Hmm. If there was a hint in Shuilonu's eyes that he was going to sneak away, Naimo would forcibly send her to a safe area, and then send Seren to keep an eye on her, not allowing her to come. However, there was a slight fear in Shuilonu's eyes, indicating that she also knew what her situation was and would cooperate with the protection of the two men, so Naimo allowed it.

They went through the formalities, and Namo and the sister at the counter inquired about Syke: "Have you ever seen someone who looks like this?"

The sister at the counter began to look at Namo. There are often problems with the identity of the guests in such places, as well as with the people who will inquire about the identity of the guests.

Naimo deliberately stamped his foot, feigning impatience, "That guy owes me a lot of money!"

Sister Counter was interested, her eyes widening.

Naimo continued, "He's a 'marmot', he 'flipped' the 'canned corn' of the 'fat chicken', and he traded 'pineapples' for 'guinea pigs' for 'contact lenses'. He was originally "eating an empty lunch box", but later went to "salvage a shipwreck" because he was "barked at by a dog", and recently took "a bunch of bananas" and planned to "raft on the rapids", and I had to catch him and "throw him into the washing machine" before then. 」

Naimo spoke all black words, which Shuilonu didn't understand. Seren, who understood it because of his business, pressed Shuilono's ears from behind.

The meaning of this passage is that he was a "tomb robber" who stole the "gold ornaments" of the "rich family" in a way that "Sellian did not want Shuilonu to understand". He also used "funeral goods that Serenne very much did not want Shuilonu to know" and "information dealers" to buy some people's "personal information". He started out as a "businessman that Serenne didn't want Shuilonu to know", but was "beaten up by cooperating lawbreakers" and was "thrown into the river with a rope tied to his feet but did not die". Recently he had taken "promissory notes from certain companies" and was going to do something that "Seren thinks it would be better for Shuilano not to know", and Naimo is going to catch him before that and do something that "Seren's thinks it's better for no one to understand." 」

The sister at the counter listened, beckoned Naimo to approach, and the two talked in a low voice for a long time.

Their room was on the seventh floor, and before entering the room, Namo knocked on the door before opening the door, and when he entered the room, Namo went to the bathroom to flush the toilet and then messed up the bed. So far, it's a small superstition that the average Ethero travels out and about, followed by the style of a black market mage. Naimo draws a spell on each closet and drawer that will blow up anything that jumps out, opens it in one breath, and when he is sure there is nothing alive inside, says "excuse me", closes it and locks it with a spell. He does the same with the space under the bed.

Serenian checked the doors, windows, and furniture joints for any tampering, he also looked behind the mirror, and opened the bathroom ceiling to see inside.

While the two men were busy, Schuilonu opened her bag, took out a large protective scroll from it, and began to tear it apart and stick it in order to all corners of the room.

Seren and Nemo began to stare at her when they realized what she was doing. When she had finished pasting them all, she pointed to the activation circle placed at the bedside with a very standard casting gesture and chanted: "See through the shadows, pick up the signs in the dust, and let me know who and what is ready to move here. 」

The alarm spell kicks in, enveloping the entire room. This scroll is not very difficult to use, about the level of the second year of mage university, and it doesn't require any other foundation to use (it is only required for manufacturing), so if you only train this one, you can do it even for a layman. However, Shuilonu did it perfectly, without any superfluous movements and overflowing energy, which is not the level of a layman.

"Do you do the same when you're traveling with friends?" asked Namo.

"Nope. Shuilonu shook his head, and if he went to great lengths to travel with a peaceful man, he would be considered a freak. Shuilonu held up his wrist: "I usually activate this. She wore a cheap ornament on her wrist that looked like a little girl strung with plastic beads, but each one was actually an amulet.

"Whoever is eyeing you is falling on the frieze. Namo exclaimed.

After all the anti-thief measures were in place, Naimo said that he was going to find out the news, so he went out, leaving Seren to take care of Shuilonu. Along the way, she had to cooperate with the footsteps of two martial arts men, and Shuilonu was easily tired, so she seized the opportunity to sleep. Serenian took the book he had brought with him and went out to read it.

After about two hours, the alarm circle suddenly glowed, beeping loudly. Serenne and Shuilonu both stood up, and Shuilonu jumped out of bed and quickly put on his shoes.

"They probably think that as long as there are a lot of people, one man can handle it. Seren said, "If Nemo comes back and sees them, it will probably kill them, so I'll go and clean them up first." With that, Serense walked to the door, and as he opened it, Shuilonu threw a magical bomb from behind him, passed through his side, and hit the mob who was waiting outside, wielding a bat.

Naimo found a single room on the second floor. Sister Counter told him that Rick had lived here for three days and had often gone out with this man. Naimo knocked on the door, but no one answered. His occupational illness led him to inspect the lock structure and door panels, which he found to have protective spells on them.

He decided to wait at the door for a while, and after about fifteen minutes, he saw someone coming with a bag of fast food, and when he saw Naimo standing in front of the door, the man was stunned for a moment, then turned and ran.

Naimo didn't chase after him, but just pointed, and the other party hit the invisible wall and stopped by his nose.

"Long time no see. Giruma-san. Namo slowly caught up.

The man backed away desperately against the invisible wall, and Naimo kicked the wall with the tip of his shoe, and the wall disappeared, and the man fell backwards and quickly stood still.

The man, whom Naimo called Jiruma, was about twenty years old. He was thin, dressed in cheap cotton trousers and a cotton jacket, all brown or beige. On the skin, like exposed hands, and on the face, if you look closely, you can see tiny dimpled cut scars. If it weren't for these unfavorable external conditions, he would actually be quite handsome. A pair of big eyes naturally give people a sense of sincerity, three-dimensional facial features and thick and smooth hair, and the hair color is like coffee with milk. He has a very beautiful figure, and even if a pair of long legs are hidden under ill-fitting trousers, people with strong aesthetic ability will still notice.

He is the master of ceremonies of the Northern Academy, the Dark Academy of the Order of the Night. Nemo and Nick are both from the Oriental Academy. Among the four dark colleges, the Northern Academy is the center of power, and the other positions are like branch schools. The master of ceremonies of the Northern Academy was in a very beautiful position back then, and he could even raise his chin to look at Xi Ke, one of the four songs of the Oriental Academy.

However, this position is different from the four songs, it is purely a fox and a fake tiger, and it has nothing to do with my combat ability. So after the destruction of the Order of the Night, no one would be afraid of him anymore.

"Did you meet Ricke? What are you all talking about?" Namo unceremoniously grabbed Giroumar's hand and twisted it straight to a painful angle.

"What's going on lately, running into two monster-level guys in a row—" Gilluma tried to pull his hand back, but Nemo increased his strength, causing him to cry out in pain.

Namo dragged Giluma and picked up the fast food he had thrown on the floor, and took the room key out of his pocket, grabbed him inside, and locked the door.

There was a mess in the cramped room. Naimo narrowed his eyes. The table is full of empty boxes of fast food and bento, crumpled clothes are piled high on chairs, pots and pans are at your disposal, and orange peels can be found in the pile of advertising letters on the table.

"You have to eat, eat. Naimo let go of Giruma and managed to create a flat surface on the table where he could put things on top of the canned drinks. He threw one pile of clothes on top of another, clearing himself a place to sit.

In the same way, Girouma cleared a space across from Nemo, and the two sat down across a table full of things. He nervously hunched his back at Namo, and it took twenty seconds before he dared to reach for the fast food bag.

Namo easily stomped on Jiro's legs and continued to look inside the room as Giruma nibbled on the fried chicken. He saw a magic cage in the corner. The old inn didn't provide the tenants with a trick, he installed it himself.

Although the cost of the magic talk has decreased in recent years, the magic cage itself is still not cheap, and the general house usually rents the magic cage with Aitaro Moxin. This magic cage does not have the symbol of the Ataro Demon Faith on it, it is a private thing, and it looks very new. In addition, Naimo also noticed a small shelf on the TV, where small porcelain plates and water bowls were placed that looked like offering plates, but there was no statue of the god in sight. He turned his head to look at the trash can again, and saw a wooden sculpture of a horse's head split in half, half-buried in the garbage—it was the statue of the King of the Night.

Until a while ago, Gilloma continued to worship the King of the Night.

When Girouma finished nibbling on two pieces of fried chicken, Namo asked, "Where's Rick?"

"I was on the road half a month ago. Not here. 」

Namo asked again, "What did you talk about?"

"What do you want to do?" said Gilluma, glaring at Namo.

Gilluma looked like she wanted to protect Syke, much to Namo's surprise. In the past, Gilluma and Xike should have had a very bad relationship.
