"It seems you are still scared, sir."

The dim light not only stretched the shadows of everyone present, but also blurred the boundary between them and the dim ground. The wind on the mountain was still strong, and the shadows on the ground seemed to be blown by them. Merging into one - the shadows were indeed about to merge into one before, but because of an old man's order, their interlacing temporarily stopped.

The old man's face was as dim as the sky at that time.

"It's you who didn't understand the situation, man." He looked at the man who was still sitting on the ground without fear, and then at the girl next to him: "Although I don't know why you took this dead end, but Now that we have reached this point, don’t expect..."

"I will let you go."

"You mean, no matter how we argue, it won't be useful, right?" Duan Qing chuckled: "Then why are you wasting so many words..."

"Come on! Kill me, and there will be thousands more!"

The righteous and solemn expression could not change the old man's attitude towards him. On the contrary, his face became more gloomy. His skinny hand swung back and forth in the strong wind, and finally the politeness in his hand was wrinkled. few.

"He...what?"

"This is the mayor I know." Duan Qing raised his head: "Be cautious and considerate. Even if there is even a slight possibility, you will not take action easily... What if it were us? If you die here and something worse happens, then..."

"Something's seriously wrong, right?"

The old man's hands clenched tighter.

"It seems we can have a talk." Seeing the old man's face that was about to become distorted, Duan Qing knew that the other party's patience was about to reach the bottom line: "Don't you ever doubt that we are looking for someone these days?"

"You can test...my patience first."

"Okay, okay, I'll do it. Before Yaski died, he entrusted Nina to us, and then... let us love a person named Laska." Looking at the other person's changing expressions , Duan Qing laughed at himself: "At first we thought who Laska was, but we found out later..."

"It's you."

"So from the very beginning, we had an attitude of distrust towards you. That's why we worked so hard to find someone. So when you said those words in Fengwu Square, we were not surprised at all."

"Including you...when you came to see me that night?"

"Oh, I didn't know that at that time." Duan Qing replied: "But judging from your performance at the time, I think the information you got from me should also be first-hand, so you showed surprise. These two opposite emotions to stability - now think about it, you should have started sending us adventurers into the pit of fire from that time... Ha, what an irony, go codenamed Aqiang Looking for you may be just the icing on the cake."

"To be honest, judging from our first meeting, I still have a very good impression of you, Mr. Mayor. But thinking about Nina's reaction at that time, it is obviously beyond the level of disgust towards ordinary strangers... ...The grudge between you and Yasiqi seems to have been going on for a long time. Even a child like Nina who knows nothing about the world knows about it..."

"That's why I think she is the descendant of sinners, son." The old man interrupted Duan Qing's words.

"Oh? Are you sure you're not afraid that she will know something she shouldn't know and then expose it to others?" Duan Qing blinked: "If she wasn't a girl who doesn't like to talk by nature, you would have taken action long ago.

Alright?"

The old man's eyes narrowed again.

"Why, haven't you heard her?" As if he guessed what the other party was thinking, Duan Qing smiled and touched the head of the girl next to him: "That's why the people you sent... will read it immediately.

Things in her home instead of... causing trouble for her?"

"Although it was only for a short time, but now that I think about it..." Duan Qing raised his chin with his fingers: "At that time, Nina's house really looked like there were no paper items left, even the ones I bought for Nina

Those storybooks are also..."

"It seems that you have a deep prejudice against me, but this is not the issue we are discussing." The old man seemed to speak faster, which was a sign that he was about to lose his patience: "Let's go back to the previous topic."

"It's also the thing you want to know most, right?"

"One." Ignoring Duan Qing's rhetorical question, Rama asked directly: "Who is the person he wants you to find...?"

"Phinny."

To the surprise of Mengzhu next to him, Duan Qing said the name simply.

As if matching this atmosphere, the strong mountain wind slowly stopped. Under Duan Qing's observation, the old man's head slowly lowered, as if he was thinking and remembering in the temporary tranquility. The guards at the rear

They didn't make a sound, and Duan Qing didn't mean to disturb the old man. It wasn't until the sun was about to set and the magic lights around the library behind Duan Qing were about to light up automatically that the old man broke away from the tranquility and shook his head to look.

towards the other party.

"I...have never heard of this name."

"What a pity." Duan Qing waved his hands and said, "I thought you would know this..."

"We searched for days but couldn't find him."

"It seems that you have worked very hard these days to realize Yaski's legacy." The old man said, "Could it be that the key lies in... this person named Feeney?"

"Yes, this is also the most critical part of Yasiqi's last words." Duan Qing said all of this without hesitation: "People who knew this name a few days ago can't be beaten by Fenghua.

Five. But we should know a lot more now, because...we have been looking for it."

"So...did you really not find...?"

"Oh, we won't be like you." Ignoring the frown on the old man's face, Duan Qing continued to reveal his secrets without any warning: "We really didn't find it. Even Richard wanted to

We just learned about the news of sending Nina out... By the way, I forgot to ask, how did you know the news?"

"I just made it up," the old man said.

"Hey..." Knowing the other party's attitude, Duan Qing no longer struggled with this issue: "We didn't dare to rely on anyone, so we had to quietly inquire in Fenghua Town ourselves. Unfortunately, there are only four of us.

I really can't find it out... but something like this happened again. I originally thought that you, the omniscient lord, would solve the answer to this riddle for us... It's really disappointing.

People are disappointed.”

"Many people have false names." The old man explained in a friendly manner at this time: "For example, me, Yasiqi,... in short, this Feeney may be just a pseudonym. As long as it is used properly

If you look it up..."

"That's right! That's what it means. Wisel was like this at the time, so I didn't dare to let him come." Duan Qing praised loudly: "You guys have many more resources than us adventurers.

If people get involved, they will definitely know faster than us, so I'm afraid..."

"afraid of what?"

"Afraid that you will find that person first, afraid that you will do us harm, afraid that... you will involve Nina."

Looking at the fading sun in the distance, Duan Qing sighed helplessly: "It's a pity that it ended up like this."

"Destiny is so fickle." The old man followed: "Although it's a pity, it seems... you still lost your last bargaining chip."

"Now, as a loser in fighting and negotiating, what good can you do?"

"Of course I have something to say." Duan Qing said: "My logic is not finished yet."

"It's almost time for dinner, son." The old man put the hat on his head: "So you still have time for the last word."

"Okay." Duan Qing agreed: "Actually, this sentence is very simple."

"The last words, the name, and the entire incident we are concerned about actually started with Yaschi - this is everyone's idea, and it is also the origin of the matter. But only we are different, we...

It started with Nina."

"Mengzhu reminded me of this." Looking at the girl in the purple burqa with tears in her eyes, Duan Qing smiled and shook her head: "If it wasn't for Nina, who would have cared about all these things.

.....”

"I admit, you are very caring." The old man raised his hand again.

"For this purpose, we almost searched the whole town. In the end, even you asked, but you still don't know who this Feeney is and where he is hiding... Oh, please believe me, if you

Now that it's me, you will definitely be extremely curious about this issue."

"However, we do still have one person we should ask the most."

The old man looked forward quietly. Duan Qing turned his back and looked up at the sky.

"Now when I look back and think about it, what should Yaski's mood be like before he dies?"

"His words seem to have come true. Even when we just rushed back, Nina was almost killed by you... Then the person he asked us to find should not be so difficult to find.

."

Ignoring the mayor in front of him who was getting more murderous, Duan Qing looked at the girl next to him: "Are you Nina?"

"If it weren't for that series of things, I should have asked you this question long ago..."

Rama's eyes lit up.

"Do you know who Feeney is?"

As if stuck by the thick air, the old man's skinny arms still did not fall. In the frozen atmosphere, the girl with focused eyes opened her two big bright eyes and looked steadily at the question in front of her.

The man who spoke blinked his eyes as everyone held their breath.

She lowered her head, and then... handed the doll in her hand to Duan Qing.

"Do it!"

Time seemed to start flowing again. When the old man's arm suddenly waved down, Duan Qing also jumped up from the ground, holding a sword in front of Nina: "What are you going to do!"

"The three of them are criminals suspected of robbing food. Arrest them and we will not care whether they live or die!"

"Rama is the biggest liar in Fenghua Town! Everything he tells is a lie! An illusion! We can now prove his crime, but he wants to destroy the evidence!"

Like a powder keg that was suddenly ignited, the originally peaceful and harmonious negotiation scene suddenly became tense. The old man wearing a top hat quickly retreated amidst the roar, allowing other guards to protect him and fight with him.

The other side, on the other hand, seemed much weaker in comparison - except for the girl who hugged Nina and retreated to the door of the circular building, Duan Qing seemed to be the only one with the fighting strength here.

However, the guards present did not dare to look at this opponent.

"You are not allowed to come here! If you come here again, I will take action!"

"What are you afraid of? Come on! He's only one person!"

Amidst the sounds of friction and collision between armors, the guards in the front row moved their steps, making a slight sound on the bluestone floor, which was quickly covered by the sound of wind. In the dim square, they experienced this sudden and absurd scene.

None of the soldiers who were fighting had the guts to rush forward like this - perhaps their swarm would doom the opponent's defeat, but the guards in the front row couldn't pat their chests and guarantee that they would survive.

Only Rama had the guts to shout and curse with each other.

"Humble adventurer! You actually try to resist the power of Fenghua Town! You are contemptuous of my authority and the rule of the principality!"

"It's not necessarily that the rule of the principality and you are two sides of the same coin! What, do you dare to refute? If you have the ability, give me the opportunity to show everyone Fini..."

"Absurd! Nonsense! I can't stand your provocations again and again! From the very beginning of the conversation, you have no intention of surrendering. Who do you think you are deceiving or playing tricks on?"

"It's you, old man! No matter how much I try to deceive you, I can't deceive you. You old fox, I've been deceiving the entire Fenghua Town for more than ten years! And the most important thing is... you actually want to bully Ni

Na!"

"Hey, your uncle image is getting weirder and weirder..." Mengzhu muttered from behind.

"Cut the nonsense, don't interrupt...drink!"

In the dim light, the dazzling sword light suddenly lit up and then extinguished immediately. However, in front of the feet of the guards in the front row, a shallow gully drawn by the slash opened in front of Duan Qing from left to right.

By extension - they wanted to take advantage of the opportunity for the other party to turn around and pounce, but in the end they almost lost their lives.

"Hoo, ho...hehe." Duan Qing, the instigator, took two deep breaths, and then wiped the sweat from his forehead with his left hand holding the sword: "Sneak attack is not a knight's style...

..”

"You! Come on from both sides!" Seeing this, the old man at the back jumped and shouted: "Surround them up and come on! I don't believe it..."

"So many people would be afraid of him alone!"

"I can smile for a minute, but I can't hold it for five seconds..." Seeing more and more people gaining the courage to slowly come closer, Duan Qing also took two steps back.

When his heels touched the steps in front of the library, he suddenly stood up straight and placed the dagger across his chest: "But I won't be afraid of you anymore!"

"bring it on!"

The air was compressing, the crowds were swarming, and a roar burst out from nowhere. The human wall made of steel armor pressed towards the house like a tsunami and landslide, and the black pressure packed with various emotions

, making people feel as if they are facing the whole world.

The entire sky also darkened - the sun finally set.
