The streets of the bustling market are lined with a dazzling array of products, and occasionally you can hear a few shouts. There is a surge of people around, and the atmosphere of joy is passed from person to person, and the whole city is beaming with joy.
A girl who looked to be thirteen or fourteen looked around at a loss in the vast sea of people. How was she going to find someone who had no idea where she was going, or even whether she was alive or dead.
However, the girl seemed to have never considered this at all. The person was lost from her and it was her responsibility to find him back.
What she didn't know was that she had already attracted the attention of others by wandering around aimlessly.
"Captain, that girl has been wandering the street all day, she is really suspicious."
"Yeah. I understand. Just do what you should do."
The captain glanced at Yun Qian. Although he didn't think there was anything strange about the girl, the wedding day of the city lord's daughter was coming in a few days. Twilight City had been extremely uneasy recently, and he had to pay attention to it.
He originally wanted to follow her secretly to find out what was going on with her, but when he saw the girl suddenly changing direction after turning around in a circle, he became secretly wary. Until the girl turned into a deserted alley, he felt more and more uneasy.
Turning a corner, there was a wall directly in front of him, but there was no sign of anyone between the wall and him.
Judging from his many years of experience, he had definitely been discovered. Before he could take any measures, his whole body trembled.
"Why are you following me?"
The clear female voice was slightly cold, and the man felt a chill behind him, but he did not dare to turn around.
Even if he didn't know Yun Qian's identity, he could clearly sense the difference between the two. While he secretly sighed at his bad luck, he was also curious about which force trained this little girl and what was the purpose of coming to Twilight City. However,
The first thing he wants to ensure is his own life safety.
"I don't mean to follow the girl. It's just that Twilight City has been extremely unstable recently, and it coincides with the wedding of the city lord's daughter. Naturally, I can't be careless. I heard that the girl has been in the city for a day. I am very familiar with this city. I don't know what I can do.
Can you help me?"
Although these words were very reasonable, he did not say that he was suspicious because of her unknown origin, but instead talked about helping. Yun Qian was worried that it would be troublesome to find one person in the whole city, but she didn't think so about this person.
It didn't look like he really wanted to help, so Yun Qian wouldn't believe what he said.
The man was also worried. He should have reported this matter to the authorities. Why would he have to come here and go through such a thankless process? But it was too late to say anything now.
Yun Qian thought for a while and restrained her murderous intent. Before, she pretended not to know them in front of those two people, and she didn't know if they had fooled them. Moreover, she didn't know if other people were nearby, so it was better to be careful.
The man felt relieved that his life was safe. As long as his life was still there, nothing could be said. As for Yun Qian, he would definitely go around him again when he saw her again.
The murderous intent just now was so real that he almost collapsed to the ground in fear. It is estimated that this will leave a shadow for the rest of his life.
Yun Qian didn't know that this man was already afraid of herself like this, so she even added fuel to the fire by asking.
"Isn't it stable? Could someone still cause trouble at this time?"
Yun Qian said it unintentionally, but the expression on the listener's face suddenly became unnatural. Yun Qian glanced at him lightly, and then looked away.
She just casually asked why this person had such a big reaction. It seemed like something was really going to happen!
The man also knew that he was too sensitive, but no explanation would help now. He could only promise with all his heart: "Girl, don't worry, you are all guests from afar, Twilight City will definitely protect everyone's safety."
Likewise, they will not tolerate those who dare to come to Twilight City to cause trouble.
The man avoids the easy and takes the serious. He knows that people like Yun Qian don't need their protection at all. But he still needs to say what needs to be said. This is their attitude.
Yun Qian didn't hear the deep meaning in his words. She didn't intend to find out anything from the man's mouth. She just said whatever came to her mind. At this time, it was more like she didn't hear the man's answer.
He continued to mutter to himself: "Could it be that someone else will rob the bride?"
The man hadn't heard Yun Qian speak for a long time, and was about to give some more instructions before finding an excuse to leave. Suddenly, he heard Yun Qian's sudden words, and his whole body trembled.
Can you guess any more accurately?
Now he has some suspicions that Yun Qian is one of the people who robbed his relatives. He is really worried about whether he can go back alive!
If Yun Qian was really one of those people, he felt that even if Yun Qian let him go, he wouldn't be able to get better if someone found out what happened today!
Suddenly, the man's heart was filled with despair. Why did he lose his mind and insist on following him? If he could be given another chance, he would definitely choose to turn a blind eye. No, he really didn't see anything!
Maybe there are some things that others don't know. As the captain of the guard, he is still aware of some things even if he doesn't say it above. It's just that this girl did meet him. If it wasn't unintentional, how did he know these things? It's just a guess, but there must be a basis for it, right?
!
The more he thought about it, the more he sweated behind his back. In the end, even he couldn't control himself, and he didn't even know when Yun Qian would leave.
How could Yun Qian not notice the strangeness of that man, but this matter had nothing to do with her, and she was not someone who liked to join in the fun. Moreover, she had already fulfilled her promise to Lotte, if he wanted to leave...
In this way, Yun Qian no longer insisted. She stayed in the city for three days. After three days, no matter whether she could find him or not, she would leave.
