Chapter 43 Fellow Victims

After hearing this, Xingji hurriedly interrupted Andre's words and said: "You can eat indiscriminately, you can't talk nonsense, why am I so light, I just charge some interest from him pretending to be me, and she has done many cases recently." โ€

"Okay, anyway, it's not up to me whether it's light or not. โ€

Andre said, and pointed to the falling star and said: "You are really lucky, this is the emperor's favorite concubines to compete for, everyone wants the emperor to give it to him, and the emperor is also overwhelmed by them, otherwise he is reluctant to send the falling star out of the palace and put it in the museum for exhibition." I guess although the emperor will issue an order to search for the falling star, it should not be too strong, you just be careful. โ€

Speaking of this, Andre added: "But I know that you prefer gold coins, and you should sell them early, after all, keeping them will always leave trouble." โ€

After hearing this, Starmark sighed and said, "Hey, sure enough, no matter how powerful a man is, he has to be controlled by a woman, and there are still a few men in this world who can be as detached as us." โ€

"You guy. Andrei smiled and shook his head.

"Alright, I got it. By the way, you can take a good look at your subordinates, don't ask people to bother me, save you from reducing your staff. Starmark said impatiently, not at all grateful to Andre for sending him the news.

"Why haven't I heard that the Great Thief would kill people?" Andrei teased.

"If I don't kill people, I help them lie down for two months and take sick leave, and I'm still willing to serve. Starmark grinned, revealing her white teeth.

"You guy, it looks like I should let you lie down for half a month! Andre laughed as he began to gear up, looking at the stance, he really wanted to compete with the starmark.

"Come on, I won't give you an excuse, Lord War, why do you embarrass me as a thief?

Starmark didn't want to get entangled with Andre on this topic, although Andre always lost to himself at the beginning, but Starmark knew very well that if he fought seriously, even if the two of them were not each other's opponents. Immediately changed the subject and said, "You busy man didn't just come here to talk to me about this, did you?"

Hearing Xingji's words, Andre, who was originally smiling, also put away his smile, and said in a heavy tone: "The teacher's health is getting worse and worse, I'm afraid the days won't be long." It's been so many years since the sword theft, and you haven't shown up in front of your teacher again. Actually, the teacher has never blamed you, his current wish is just to see you again..."

Hearing Andre's words, Starmark's body shook, and he recalled the scene in the execution ground again, hundreds of people holding knives and guns at Starmark, and more than a thousand people in the distance pulled out their longbows, and the targets of the longbows were also him. In front of Starmark, a figure stood. He wasn't tall, he wasn't strong, he was even a little rickety, but he was like a shield forged by King Kong, keeping out all external threats.

Starmark took a deep breath, pulled his thoughts back, and after a moment of silence, he nodded slowly, "I know, but I don't have the face to see the teacher again..."

"Are you really going to refuse to see the teacher for the last time?" Andre patted Starmark on the shoulder, and then he lifted his foot, picked the spear back into his hand, and disappeared into the darkness down the alley...

Left a silent star, slowly covered by this snowy night...

......

The sun slowly rises, banishing the darkness of the night.

"Wellโ€”" Christa's eyebrows twitched slightly, and her beautiful eyes slowly opened.

"Where is this?" Christa looked around, and around her was the cold wall, and the only place where the light came from one side was sealed off by an iron barrage made of steel, a place she had never been to before, but a wealth of knowledge had told her that it was a prison cell.

Krista tried to get up, but felt her body sink and a force from her arm pulled her back down. Only then did she realize that she and Iri were tied together by a hemp rope the thickness of a child's arm.

"Hmm... Miss, what's wrong. Because of Christa's struggle, Iri's confused voice came.

"Stupid Iri, we're all tied up, you still have the time to sleep!" Christa said angrily, and her body writhed with more force. She is a warrior herself, and although she is a woman, her physical strength is much stronger than that of Yi Ri as a priest, and by her twist, Yi Ri is like a poor rag doll, being thrown around by an angry little master.

Just then, the sound of a cell door opening stopped Christa's struggle.

"Please don't do useless struggles, this is a rope made of bigfoot bear hamstrings, you can't break free. As long as you cooperate with me well, I will naturally untie the rope for you. โ€

Christa was stunned for a moment, looking at the source of the voice, that person was none other than Commander Ryan of the Garrison Department, needless to say that she also understood that she must have been stunned by the Great Thief Star, and then caught by Ryan, who woke up early.

"The falling star is not with me. Christa said urgently.

Rien's face was not very good, and he said in a deep voice: "I know, but the loss of the falling star has nothing to do with you. โ€

Krista tried to plead, but didn't know what to say, and at this time, Rien's words continued to come.

"Besides, we're both victims of theft, and I want you to tell me everything you know. โ€

When Rien said the word "victim", Christa asked in confusion, "Victim?"

Ryan nodded expressionlessly: "Yes, I'm sorry to tell you that you were stolen, anything of value on your body was stolen, and so were your companions behind you." โ€

"Everything of value?" Christa didn't quite understand Ryan's words at first, but at this moment, a breeze blew, and Christa's delicate body trembled, and her beautiful pretty face turned red at once, and she finally understood what all valuable things were.

As a young lady with a big background, Christa naturally does not wear heavy clothes to keep out the cold like ordinary people, for the sake of beauty, her underwear is blessed by magic, which can not only keep warm, but also has good defense, even if she stands under the biting wind, she will not feel cold. However, a faint cold wind invaded her skin, which was enough to indicate that her intimate clothes with magical warmth blessings were gone.

"How! Chrissy blushed with shame. The man who once occupied a great place in her heart and shined brightly suddenly became obscene.

"Miss Christa, what's wrong? What did you lose? My purse is missing! And my storage ring. Iri obviously felt Christa's anger as well, and immediately asked with concern.

"Shut up, it's none of your business!" Christa's face turned redder, and of course he couldn't tell Iri that he had lost his underwear, so he could only clench his fists and whisper through gritted teeth, "Bastard, that bastard!"

Ryan didn't find it strange to see this, the same scene happened when he first woke up, the hateful fellow, even the few gilded badges he had with him, were looted.

"Well, please tell me what happened after I fell unconscious, and maybe we can work together. โ€

Christura was still in a rage at this time, snorted, and said coldly: "Why should I tell you, what use can you be a little sheriff. โ€

Rien didn't show displeasure at Krista's contempt, but said lightly: "Of course you don't tell me, then I can only do my part and report this matter." I know that you must have a good background, but may God bless you, the royal family does not value the falling stars. โ€

"You bastard!"

......

After a night of hesitation, Starmark plucked up the courage to make it to Abner's quarters.

As soon as he walked outside the house, before Starmark could knock on the door, he saw the door open, and a middle-aged man in his fifties and dressed in a fancy costume walked out of the room. When he saw the star mark, the humility on his face immediately turned to disdain and disgust.

For the disgust on the man's face, Xingji took the initiative to bow down and say hello as if he hadn't seen it: "Second senior brother, hello." โ€

The man didn't buy it, and snorted coldly: "Don't call me Second Senior Brother, I don't think my Senior Brother would do that kind of thing, please call me Marquis of Krell, or Executive Officer Krel." โ€

Yes, this man is Krel, he was very distressed about Star Mark at the beginning, and he wanted to teach Star Mark himself. But when the Overseer's Sword happened, Krell was disappointed in Starmark, and when he saw him again, he was sneering.

After hearing this, Starmark's eyes dimmed a little, but he didn't reply, just nodded slightly.

Krell looked at the star mark coldly and snorted, "Why did you come here?"

Starmark lowered his head: "I'm here to visit the teacher." โ€

"Hmph. Krell snorted significantly louder this time: "You have to remember your identity, you are a thief, and it is because of you that the glory of the teacher's life has been stained." If you are still grateful to the teacher for saving you, please don't show up again, your presence will only cause us trouble. โ€

After saying that, Krel didn't wait for the star mark to speak again, and threw his sleeves around the door.

Starmark was silent when he heard this, and he raised his hand to knock on the door, but he was only half an inch away from the door, but he couldn't get down. He didn't get angry because of Krel's words, the other party was right, Abner had a total of seven disciples, except for him, they were all the pride of the sky, and the dragon and phoenix among the people. Even Andre, who was born in the market like him, has become a high-level member of the Dragon Knight Legion and is known as the youngest god of war, but he is just a thief...
