On the other side, Yun Xi and Tao Xiuqi were also followed. They could not escape quickly and had to squeeze into crowded places.
Go left from Dinghai Tower, and there is a street called "Night is Not Dark". From the time the sun goes down to the time it rises, the shops on this street will always have long lanterns hanging on them. This is true for every shop, and there are countless beautiful people.
Handsome men and women are soliciting customers at the door.
Therefore, "Yebuhei" is extremely lively every night, and it is even more so tonight. Many people come here after coming out of Dinghai Tower.
Yun Xi and Tao Xiuqi also blended in. Taking advantage of the crowd and making it difficult to keep an eye on them, they quickly took off their masks and cloaks and returned to their original appearance.
And when the follower came forward to check, Yunxi had an idea, grabbed Tao Xiuqi's ear, and said harshly: "What did you tell me? You said those Qihaizhu were used to buy medicinal materials. It turned out that
What? Are there any medicinal materials for sale here? Ah? You are really going to make me mad! Go home and see how I deal with you!"
Tao Xiuqi was really in pain and kept pleading: "Please be gentle, my ears are going to fall off!"
This kind of scene happens almost every day in "Night is Not Dark". Everyone is not surprised. At most, they just laugh and stop paying attention.
Yunxi pulled Tao Xiuqi's ear all the way, not daring to let go even after "The Night Is Not Black" for fear of being discovered.
After walking to a dark place with no people around, Yun Xi finally relaxed and asked quickly: "Are your ears okay?"
Tao Xiuqi touched his ears, hissed and said, "It's okay, it's just a little swollen."
Yun Xi felt very guilty: "...I'm sorry, I'll give you some medicine when you get back, and you'll be fine soon." She only wanted to act more realistically, and forgot to control her strength.
Tao Xiuqi smiled, "It's okay, go back quickly."
When the two went back, Tang Mo and Fu Yunxiu had already arrived. To be cautious, everyone found a new inn yesterday as a meeting point.
Now only Yin Wuchang and the other three who hold the token are left.
"Why are they slower than us?" Tang Mo muttered.
Fu Yunxiu sat on the chair with his arms folded and said, "Just wait a little longer."
Logically speaking, the Yin Wuchang trio should be the first to come back. After all, in the eyes of outsiders, they have no tokens, and naturally no one will follow them. They can just find a place to remove their disguises and come back directly.
Suddenly, Yunxi Fuzhi said in his heart: "They are not going to steal other people's tokens, are they?"
Tao Xiuqi was stunned, shook his head and said: "Probably not, the risk is too great."
Tang Mo and Fu Yunxiu remained silent, but their faces became increasingly ugly.
After a while, the two stood up almost at the same time. Fu Yunxiu said in a deep voice: "Let's go, they won't come back."
Yun Xi and Tao Xiuqi were stunned for a moment, and then they both reacted. The former said in disbelief: "They took the token and ran away?!"
Tao Xiuqi also said angrily: "Thank you for trusting them so much!"
"Now is not the time to talk about this." Tang Mo said, "We can't stay here for long, let's go first."
Suddenly, there was a burst of noise outside, and several people were startled.
The next second, the door was kicked open violently, and a group of armored City Lord's Mansion guards filed in, surrounding the four of them.
The leading general said coldly: "Someone reported that you robbed other people's finances. Come with us."
Fu Yunxiu's face was indifferent, and a flash of lightning flashed in his eyes as he stared at the general, as if he was about to force a breakout in the next second.
But she was held down by Tang Mo who came over. She smiled at the general and said, "Misunderstanding, we are Lin Cheng's friends, how could we know and break the law in Qihai City?"
The general paused, Lin Cheng? As a person from the City Lord's Mansion, he was naturally very familiar with Lin Cheng. He was the young City Lord's savior. The general lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, and when he spoke again, his tone was much gentler.
"When someone reports a crime, we cannot ignore it. If there is really a misunderstanding, please come with us and clarify it."
Tang Mo nodded understandingly, "That's natural. We won't make it difficult for you. Let's go."
Seeing that Tang Mo was so cooperative and seemed confident, the general became more and more sure that what she said was true, but he still sent someone to the city lord's palace to ask to see Lin Cheng to confirm the truth.
Because of Tang Mo's remarks before, the guards were quite polite to them. They did not tie them up and escort them, but just surrounded them to prevent them from running away.
During this period, the general was still making excuses, and was trying to find out about the relationship between Tang Mo and Lin Cheng in a roundabout way. When he learned that they were both disciples of the saint from Qihai Academy, the general completely believed Tang Mo's previous words.
They are all disciples of the saint, so it is normal for them to become friends.
Before reaching the command hall, the general said coldly: "How dare you come to the city lord's palace to report a false case and seek death."
Tang Mo was very surprised to hear this. There is no such thing as reporting a crime in Jialan Realm. Being robbed can only prove that you have no strength. The best way is to find someone to help you and get the things back, otherwise you will have to admit it yourself.
Bad luck.
Even in the city, it is only stipulated that buildings are not allowed to be damaged or people are not allowed to kill, and no one cares about the rest. The city lord's government here is very strict, but I don't know whether it is really standing up for the weak or covering for the strong.
When he arrived at the Discipline Hall, Tang Mo saw an acquaintance. He turned out to be the wealthy businessman who had taken the last token. No wonder he came to report the case in such a hurry, it cost half a million yuan.
"General Pei!" The wealthy businessman ran out anxiously and asked, "Has anyone been arrested?"
General Pei pointed at Tang Mo and the four of them and asked coldly: "But how many of them are these?"
The wealthy businessman looked at it with wide eyes, shook his head and said, "It's not them, it's two men and a woman. The woman is very tall, her name is Tang Mo!"
Tang Mo laughed angrily: "That's wrong, that woman's name is An Cuili, she has a grudge against us, and she's using you as a gunman."
"That's right! Can you use your brain? Who would reveal their name during a robbery?" Yun Xi also rolled his eyes and said, obviously very angry.
The wealthy businessman was stunned and defended: "She didn't mean to say it. When they were about to leave, a man accidentally called her name."
A few people were even more angry, even the seniors! They were all bullshit in front of the treasure! Not only did they take their tokens away, but they actually wanted to kill them all with a borrowed knife and kill them all!
"Okay." Tang Mo said angrily: "I have finally seen what it means to be a classmate. I have a smile on my face and want to stab you behind my back. It's really great."
Fu Yunxiu kept a cold face. He had never suffered such a big loss before. Yin Wuchang really taught him a big lesson.
At this time, the guard who was sent to the city lord's palace came back and said something in General Pei's ear. After hearing this, the latter's expression softened a lot and said: "The situation is very clear now."
General Pei looked at the wealthy businessman: "The ones who robbed you should be Miss Tang and their enemies. Don't worry, as long as they are still in the city, we will definitely catch them."
When the wealthy businessman heard this, his heart went cold. After such a long delay, those three people must have run away! He worked all night and spent a huge sum of money, but only got a dozen!
