"Left?" asked the minister-like man, "where did you go?"

"Uh...... They were running so fast that I couldn't see it clearly!" Apparently the innkeeper was not very well prepared, and after a little hesitation, he said, and then pointed in a direction: "It seems to be over there!"

Perhaps the innkeeper's behavior was too unnatural, which made the person in the lead suspicious, and after a moment of silence, he suddenly shouted: "Get out of the way!"

Then Ellen, they heard a jumble of footsteps - the gang had broken in!

"They're really not here!" the innkeeper tried to stop, but to no avail.

"You guys, go search over there!" the leader commanded, "the others come with me!"

"Oops! they're searching the room!" Riel whispered, "Our luggage is still on the second floor!"

"The luggage wasn't a big deal, there was nothing in it that would reveal our identity...... But if they search here......" Alan said, looking around worriedly, "it's so empty, and once this place is lit up, our shadows can easily reveal our location......"

The courtyard was dark, and I could only see the outline by the light coming out of the house. What is certain, though, is that the entire yard is bare, without a single tree.

"But if you hide in a house, there are so many of them, then a small space may be easier to see. Alyssa said.

"What then...... "Rare," said Riel, "or shall we go out the back door and hide in the street?"

"Is there any difference between hiding in the street and hiding here?" Cynthia gave him a blank look, "and they're all places that can be seen in the light of a day." ”

"So what's going on? So we're just going to have to wait to die?" Riel pouted, a little annoyed.

His words provoked a moment of silence.

But after a moment, he suddenly pointed to the wall opposite them and said, "What's that?"

Following the direction of his finger, Alan saw that there was indeed a black thing on the edge of the wall not far away, but it was very imperceptible near the corner of the wall. If you look closely, it's not small, and it looks like a house.

A few people approached quickly, only to realize that it was the carriage that had brought them here, but the two unicorns were well-trained and stood motionless, so they didn't make a sound at all.

There was also a sink next to the car, and the water in it was empty.

There was a tall and wide door on the side of the wall, and it seemed that they had been brought in from here.

"It's dangerous!" Alan walked to the back of the car and covered the logo behind the car with a wave of his hand with a camouflage charm, "It's good that you found it, otherwise it would be useless for us to hide well!"

But it also discouraged them from hiding here. Although the carriage was tall, the shadows created by the light were very different from those of humans, and the whole carriage was almost clinging to the walls, and there were no gaps for them to hide.

"Report! Nothing found!"

"It's the same over here!"

"There was no one on the second floor either, just some loose luggage. ”

Suddenly, several reports came from the guest room.

"Ahh The innkeeper quickly explained.

"But there's something strange here!" a voice suddenly rang out, close to the backyard, "This door has been forcibly broken, and there are signs of magic!"

"Oh no! they look like they're really going to get in here!" Alan panicked for a moment, but there really wasn't a place around for them to hide.

"Come in!" Alyssa pulled open the door and beckoned them to hurry in.

Although it may still be exposed, it will not be discovered in the first place.

Just as they closed the car door again, several flashing magic lights appeared in the backyard.

Immediately afterwards, more than a dozen people dressed in the uniform work clothes of the Magic Association walked into the backyard one after another, and each of them carried a magic lamp in his hand, illuminating the entire backyard.

The leader was a tall, middle-aged man with thick curly hair and a scruffy beard, but his eyes looked shrewd and capable.

He took a few steps into the courtyard and began to look around.

"About this door...... innkeeper explained after him, "uh...... Two days ago, a guest got drunk and accidentally damaged the place......!

However, the middle-aged man didn't pay attention to him at all, and after a closer look, he finally locked his eyes on the carriage.

"Nice carriage. He said as he walked this way, "Yours?"

The innkeeper followed behind, a little trembling: "I bought it a long time ago, and it is specially used to pick up and drop off distinguished guests who have urgent and important matters. ”

"Oh...... I can't see that you're quite willing to spend money. The middle-aged man nodded, pacing beside the carriage as he said, "This type of carriage is very valuable...... These unicorns, in particular, are picky about their food. ”

"It's really not easy to raise, and the sungrass they eat is too expensive. The innkeeper replied, "I've been thinking about selling it to someone else lately." ”

"What, isn't business bad lately?"

"It's really a lot more deserted than a while ago...... Due to the Magic Eye, fewer and fewer people are visiting Dunkel, and there have been only a few guests who have come here for business in the last week. The boss was a little relieved when he heard this question, and he had already answered this question many times.

But as soon as he finished speaking, the tall man stopped standing still, looked down for a long time, and then turned his head sideways and stared at him closely: "Then this is interesting......

Alan was shocked...... Through the car window, he could clearly see the suspicion in the man's eyes.

"Since not many people came, does that mean that this carriage may not have been used for a long time?" the middle-aged man asked coldly.

"Uh...... Uh-huh...... It seems like...... It's been a long time......" The innkeeper didn't know what to say for a moment, so he replied hesitantly, "The last time I used it, I guess ...... Belch...... Two weeks ago......"

"Oh, two weeks ago?" said the middle-aged man at once, "but they don't look like they've been in the yard all day...... It's like you've traveled a long way......"

He was right, because of the wind and rain along the way, and not getting enough rest, the two unicorns now looked exhausted, and even the fur on their bodies was dull, and they didn't look like they were staying at home all day.

"Uh...... Maybe it's because they've been neglecting to take care of them lately......" The innkeeper panicked a little and hurriedly explained, "because I can't afford to feed them......

"Oh, is it?" the middle-aged man asked with a dry laugh, "I see......"

"It seems that the prevarication has passed?" Alan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw this.

But in the next second, the middle-aged man suddenly changed his words, grabbed the innkeeper's collar, and pulled him down: "Then, please explain it to me!"

The innkeeper was dragged and nearly fell.

"Could you please explain it to me......" The middle-aged man pressed the innkeeper's head with one hand and pointed to the ground with the other, "What's the matter with these footprints!?"
