084 A Darker Future(1/2)

"That woman with green grass and glazed glass is probably... my ex, if I don't admit my mistake."

The summary of a busy day has not yet begun, but the criticism meeting surrounding Duan Qing has begun.

"Oh, that still sounds like a really sad story."

"You must have never heard of a sad story in one sentence, right..." Duan Qing smiled bitterly: "Anyway, due to some... well-known reasons, she and I were separated from each other some time ago.

We just broke up, and I didn’t expect to meet her again in a place like this..."

"Well, is this the origin of the so-called plan C? Why did you suddenly get excited this time..." The smiling butcher said while holding his chin.

"Could it be that they were the ones I saw in Shuo Xinghua before? No wonder...wait, wait, wait!" The gossip-filled girl jumped out first and shouted: "Uncle, you are not married yet?

"

"Of course... No, do you have to shout it out so loudly?"

"Hehe, hehe..." The girl did not answer, but sat on one side again, looking at Duan Qing with a silly smile, while Xiao Hongchen on the other side looked like he suddenly realized: "So that's it!

It’s really the hatred of seizing my wife! Look at how close those two people are to each other, if I were me, I wouldn’t be able to bear it..."

"I can bear it." Duan Qing took a big gulp of water and wiped his still dry mouth: "The result is that you are eliminated."

"Hey, don't mention my matter. After all, it has been cured a long time ago..." Looking at the apologetic look in his eyes, Xiao Hongchen waved his hands repeatedly, and then said like a cooked hero again with a rosy face:

"It's you! Do we still want to go back and cause trouble for them and give you a sigh of relief?"

"Don't, don't, don't. We already made a lot of money in that battle just now. Before they came back to cause trouble for us, they were already burning incense and worshiping Buddha. If we fight again, we may not be able to win..."

"What are you afraid of! You are still not a man! Women have run away with others..."

"Hey, hey, we broke up normally, so we can get together and relax. It's just a little sad to see each other again. If there's nothing to be resentful about, we'd better focus on..."

"No." The smiling uncle sitting aside suddenly opened his eyes: "Since you can recognize her, why doesn't she recognize you?"

"Well, she hasn't changed her appearance, so of course I can recognize her. If someone can pinch someone's face to make someone look like her, then I'll recognize it..."

"No, no, no, that's not the crux of the problem..." The smiling butcher looked at the other person, but did not say the next words.

"...Okay, this is not my real appearance." After understanding what the other party meant, Duan Qing had to admit the problem with his appearance: "This is not a big deal, right? Now I want to make myself a handsome person.

Thousands and thousands..."

"Of course it's not a big deal." The smiling butcher kept smiling: "I just want to know your true appearance...or your true identity."

"You are so powerful, but you dare not show your true self to others. It shouldn't be because... you are afraid that you will meet your ex-girlfriend like today... right?"

Duan Qing fell silent.

"Okay, okay, I'm just... a little curious." Seeing that the other party really had no intention of explaining, the smiling butcher could only spread his hands: "Whenever you think about it, we can discuss it again.

.....Now, let’s solve Nina’s matter first.”

"That's right!" After this reminder, Mengzhu finally came to her senses. She looked in the direction of the door behind the counter and said with some worry: "So many things happened suddenly, I don't even know where to start discussing...

....”

When they returned here before, Richard carried the frightened girl into the lounge on the first floor of the Adventurers Association - that sloppy guy didn't usually clean up the place that was always occupied by him.

, but in this situation now, no one can control it so much.

"It seems that the backer our boss found is not very reliable, so the appearance of those city guards should be unexpected by him." Duan Qing also came back to his senses and naturally participated in the discussion:

"Fortunately, we finally fished Nina out, otherwise, this last line would have been broken."

"Yeah, if Nina falls into their hands..."

"Hey, hey, hey, comrades, what are you doing?" Xiao Hongchen, who was full of questions, interrupted and asked. The remaining three people looked at each other, and then they realized that there was another person here who didn't know the situation.

"You...forget it, just listen."

"The crux of the matter now is...we have to find a reason to come in."

"I think it's disgusting. Those Zicheng guards don't look like good people. After this night, there may be nothing left at the scene. It will be useless for us to go there..."

"That captain-looking man passed by before. They were ordered by Mayor Rama... Maybe we can go find Rama!" The girl suddenly said: "Right, Uncle Qingshan?"

She looked at the other person with a strange look, and the latter understood what he meant, so she turned to the other three people and said: "We... still have some friendship with the mayor, maybe this is the way to go."

"It's getting late, you guys wait for us here and protect Nina at the same time. Let's go to the town hall and find the Lord Rama they say." Duan Qing stood up with Mengzhu and said to the other two people.

: "If everything goes well, this matter may be resolved immediately."

"Then...we'll talk about her father."

******************

"You must not know about her father, right?"

Stepping into the dark night, Duan Qing and Mengzhu arrived at the second floor of the town hall. After practicing the staring skills with the fat guard captain for a long time, the mayor of Fenghua Town finally agreed to

At this time of rest, I met the two of them.

The mayor's office is as magnificent as the appearance of the town hall. Although the room is not large, it is filled with all kinds of furniture and objects. White porcelain vases filled with Fenghua Town's unique flowers and plants are arranged in sequence near each other.

In the corner by the window, other large and fully framed calligraphy and paintings are hung irregularly on the other wall. Under the light of the burned candlestick, they reflect a beautiful yellow light. There are also various exquisite decorations scattered here and there.

Stacked on the wooden frame beside the door, it not only decorates this luxurious room, but also reflects the taste of the owner of this room.

According to rumors, Mayor Rama is a noble, and he probably knew it when they met him before. But now, Duan Qing and Duan Qing have a deeper understanding of this concept.

Behind the long brown wooden table in the middle, the mayor, who had met once on the street, took off the glasses on his eyes, wiped them casually with a white handkerchief, and then slowly and slowly

He continued: "According to the city guard's investigation... Yasiqi seems to have some serious criminal suspicions."

"That must be a misunderstanding, sir." Duan Qing, who is well versed in certain communication modes, replied with a Shi Shiran expression: "We just came back from the Ankarat Mine, and we also brought...

News about Nina’s father.”

"Oh?" The neatly dressed old man showed a very interested look on his face.

"I can confirm that he is a good father." Duan Qing thought for a moment and then said, "But he is dead."

There was a night breeze blowing in from the unclosed second-floor window. The old man looked in that direction, as if he wanted to see clearly the stars that were about to fill the night sky through the flying catkins outside the window. After a long time, he gently

He sighed: "That's it..."

"Poor Robin," he whispered.

"Maybe there was some... misunderstanding." Duan Qing continued to swim tentatively: "But we also understand the difficulties of the city guards. They have also been busy with training recently, and many things have changed.

Didn’t figure it out..."

"Oh, I know everything about them." The old man scratched his head, then looked at the two people in front of him: "Those orders were all given by me. I believe them, so..."

"There were reports before, Robin...oh no, Yaschi? Albert is the leader of the bandit group that has been rampant in crime recently, and the evidence is...obvious."

"Well, I'm sorry. Although their investigation may be true, I don't think it has anything to do with the theft in his home, and it has nothing to do with Nina..."

"Of course...it doesn't matter." Rama blinked: "Does it matter that I have them?"

Duan Qing was speechless for a moment.

"I don't know what happened in his residence is related to the facts I learned." Rama stroked his beard, seeming to clarify his thoughts at the same time: "But now there is a lot of evidence that...

Yasiqi is a criminal who tries to destroy the peace of Fenghua Town, you two."

"This is a felony."

"So, no matter who committed the theft, the city guards must... control that place."

Duan Qing and Mengzhu looked at each other and saw deep worry in each other's eyes.

"Does this also include...Nina?" After a while, the girl asked cautiously.

"Well... of course." The old man hesitated for a moment, then nodded: "Although she is still alive, it should have nothing to do with her at this time, but even if it is for her safety..."

"I don't think those city guards can ensure her safety." Duan Qing suddenly interrupted: "And according to general practice, Nina's safety...or responsibility should be ensured by her person in charge.

Bar?"

"This is natural, but she has no one in charge now..." Rama's eyes closed.

"She should be an orphan now, we know." Duan Qing continued. But the girl who had been with him for a long time could see that his tone had regained some confidence: "But...she didn't participate in anything

There is no one in the orphan care organization to take her in, but it was once... entrusted by the Adventurers Association and took care of her for a long time."

A smile appeared on his face: "Our Fool Adventure Group has also accepted such a commission."

The old man's eyes opened a little.

"And you are a witness."

The old man's mouth twitched.

"So I think, under such circumstances, is it...reasonable to leave Nina to us?"

"I have some knowledge of Yasiqi's family, so I think... this matter should be handled by me..."

"Of course, you will handle it. We have no objection." Duan Qing put one hand on his chest and made a courtesy to the mayor behind the desk: "My teammates and I will take good care of Nina in the Adventurers Association.

At the same time...waiting for your fair outcome."

"And...hopefully soon." He winked.
