"At the time, maybe I should have known that this kind of thing wasn't going to last. ”

Inside the cave, the skeleton sat down slowly, as if it had forgotten what it was doing.

Of course, everyone wants others to listen to them carefully, let alone him, a skeleton who lives here all year round?

"I should have thought of it, I should have known. ”

The skeleton kept repeating the phrase, full of remorse and a certain reluctance.

On a street corner not far from the tavern, Brosno stopped, his face cold with anger, and after a moment of silence, he said to the lieutenant beside him, "When you go back, find out who registered the boy named Nisse." ”

As he spoke, he gritted his teeth and roared, "Then, then give me thirty lashes!"

"Huh?"

The adjutant, along with all the guards behind him, made a sound of surprise, as if they had heard the word whipping, and they had already felt the pain that life was worse than death.

This is not over, Brusno said to the adjutant in a serious tone: "This boring clinic needs to send more people, before the case is closed, you will stare me to death, as long as there is anything wrong there, report it to me immediately!"

"Y-you're saying there's something wrong with that kid?"

The adjutant looked at the near-angry commander in confusion and fear, "I—why did I think he was quite normal just now!"

When Brusno heard this, he instantly raised his slap, but in the end it only landed lightly on the adjutant's shoulder, "Heh! That's why you've been doing it for nearly twenty years, but you're still just an adjutant!"

"Yes! The boy just now replied fluently, not a single flaw, his pupils, his eyebrows, his facial muscles, not a single thing unnatural. But have you ever wondered if a sixteen-year-old could have been able to look so calm, especially under the pressure of my gaze, even if he hadn't done anything or told a lie? ”

The adjutant did not answer, or was embarrassed to answer, it was obvious that even if he did not have this kind of heart at this time, he would be cowardly, hesitant, and subconsciously dodge in front of this chief.

Suddenly, when he recalled the young man's calm and calm expression again, he was inexplicably shocked into a cold sweat.

"Humph!"

The corners of Brusno's mouth curled slightly, bringing out a weird smile, "There is definitely something wrong with this kid, even if he is not the murderer we are looking for, he is definitely not an ordinary person." Believe me, he's far more terrifying than you can imagine at the moment!"

At dusk.

The heavy rain had stopped for nearly a day, but the dark clouds in the sky showed no sign of fading, and the setting sun tore open a narrow gap, spreading the sun to the earth and the majestic city.

The streets of Ilta's city are straight and wide, and the stone-paved ground is extremely smooth, but the water after the rain always leaves a few puddles on it, like dispensable scars.

Nisse kicked a stone in boredom, walking slowly down the street, following wherever the stone jumped, and then continuing to kick the stone, not caring whether the stone had fallen into a puddle or not.

With his hands in his pockets, his shoulders constricted, and the beautiful setting sun casting a golden-red husk in his hair, he was more like a lonely ghost or a wild ghost in this somewhat unfamiliar city.

The bobblestones were irregular, but they pointed roughly to one place, 42 Lear Street - Boredom Clinic.

Very few people know about the Boredom Clinic, but it's definitely a strange thing, and the strange name alone is enough to discourage all patients, with the exception of those with mental problems.

It was less than two miles from the tavern to the boring clinic, but Nesser had walked for quite a long time, and when he reached the slightly dilapidated façade, he lifted his foot and kicked it hard, and the stone that had accompanied him all the way home flew straight into the distance.

At this time, Nisse suddenly glanced at a few slightly hidden corners in the distance with sharp eyes, and then tilted his head and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, which was a helpless wry smile.

He shook his head, then turned around and walked in.

The area of the clinic is not large, but it can still make people feel a little empty, and what the business is like can only be known by looking at it, and it is not a bleak sentence that can be depicted at all.

As soon as he walked into the clinic, Nisse began to stomp his feet desperately, and the rain on his shoes splashed everywhere and took the ground.

"Stinky boy, are you going to drink flower wine again? I smell it seven blocks away. ”

An old voice came from the backyard, hoarse and slightly wheezing.

Nisse smiled slightly, and said nonchalantly, "I only drink, but I don't drink flowers!" Besides, this is not a work need, who made most of those people go to that tavern, you will not let me stand in front of the door and watch them one by one, do you? I don't want to be a free doorman for them. ”

With that, he walked straight to the low counter, and sat down on a stool, where a plate of steaming beef fried rice was on the table, next to a jar of sauce, a glass of water, and a small spoon.

This is the standard, it has been with Nisse for more than ten years, not only the fried rice has not changed, even the taste of this fried rice has never changed, even when I dream, Nisse can smell a smell of beef.

Because of the dismal business of the clinic, this small counter turned into an expensive table, and Nisse picked up the spoon and ate it in large gulps, as if his stomach had been empty.

At this moment, with a burst of coughing and staggering footsteps, an old man with flowery hair walked in through the back door, he held a polished shiny pipe in his hand and smacked it vigorously, and the clothes on his body could not be seen at all, not to mention that they were not as clean as ordinary doctors, and even more sloppy than Nisse's clothes, this was the owner of the clinic, and the attending physician, and the nurse, and the waiter.

The old man limped to the inside of the counter and sat down, smoking a cigarette as he watched Nisse smirk, his expression as innocent and silly as a child.

Seeing the old man's incessant smirk, Nisse first pouted, then stopped the rice spoon in his hand, groped around on his body for a long time, and finally threw a money bag on the counter, he gave the old man a blank look and continued to eat.

"That's all?"

The old man stretched out his left hand and picked up the money bag and shook it, "Stinky boy, you won't keep it a secret yourself, will you?"

"Phew!"

Before he could finish chewing the food in his mouth, Nisse snorted, splashing rice grains everywhere, and a few of them fell on the old man's clothes, "You think I am you, Scrooge!"

"Hey, hey!"

The old man smirked as he picked up the grains of rice on his body and said, "I'm a miser? I didn't save money to marry you a daughter-in......-law in the future?" I heard that they all have to be praised, you say that my old man is for you, is it easy for me? But who made me promise your parents back then, I have to do it!"

As soon as he heard the word "parents", the rice spoon in Nisse's hand suddenly stopped, stiffened for a long time, he slowly raised his head and looked at the old man and said in frustration: "By the way, can't you tell me until now, who are my parents?"

"Can't!"

The old man replied softly, still smiling innocently, but his demeanor was firm and unchangeable, "I said that one day I would let you know, but certainly not now." ”

"Humph!"

Nisse snorted helplessly, and thrust the rice spoon into the rice, he turned around and bowed his head silently, as if reminiscing and as if he was feeling helplessly, his wheezing sound became louder and louder, and his arms trembled from tightness to uncontrollably.

At a certain moment, his right hand suddenly raised, and a bright light flashed out from his hand, and the speed was so fast that even if there was a sword master standing next to him at this time, he was probably shocked by the scene just now.

The light was nailed directly to a hanging painting on the opposite wall, which was a common painting of the human body structure in hospitals, and in the place where the heart of the hexagram was drawn, a medical scalpel was inserted at this time, and behind the painting was a stone wall, and the scalpel had already been submerged in most of it.

After a moment of calmness, Nisse lowered his head helplessly, muttered for a moment, and said, "Old man! ”

The sentence was low but powerful, and the old man did not speak, still smirking his pipe behind the counter.

Seeing that the old man did not answer, Nisse continued: "You took me from the Houthi Empire to Elboa, from Saint-Heman to here, all the way, and I killed all the way. Yes, you told me that those were the enemies who killed my parents, and I believe you, because there are several people who seem to have thought of something before they lose consciousness, but, I don't even know who my parents are, and you make me ......"

At this, Nisse gave a decadent expression, and then slapped his right hand on the counter, and the items placed on it jumped in shock.

"Huh!"

The old man looked at Nisse with a smile, he leaned back slightly, then quite naturally raised his head to look at the ceiling, and after a little muttering, he said softly: "Stinky boy, I told you this truth, have you forgotten? Now you are a hunter, and those bastards who once killed your parents are prey, but once your identity is revealed, then, you will become prey in an instant." ”

As he spoke, the old man smacked his cigarette again, and said with emotion: "Believe it, as long as your identity is revealed, then in less than half an hour, this place will be surrounded by more than a dozen mages and hundreds of swordsmen, and they will burn the two of us to the ground, not even a single bone residue remains, and then they will announce to the outside world that the two of us are extremely evil bastards." ”

......

"Wait. ”

Xu Chen suddenly interrupted the skeleton and continued, "That old man is ......"

"Clever. ”

Unexpectedly, the skeleton seemed to be able to read Xu Chen's heart, "You guessed right, that old man is Weeping Crane, my Demon Venerable, he is my benefactor in this life." ”
