0653 Chapter Thirteen: A Big Adventure on a Small Holiday (Section 42)
"Since you're here, help me," Zhen Cheng said with a smile, "The job will be the type you like."
"Killing goblins?" Ai Luogensi curled her lips. It was obvious that the wall of the butcher shop could not isolate her hearing: "To be honest, today's killing made me a little sick..."
As she said that, she glanced in the direction of the door with a slight dissatisfaction. Apparently she saw the little fox girl who had just left when she came in, and she still held a grudge in her heart about being forcibly teleported at the competition:
"The damn place they left me in was full of weird looking guys, each one more difficult to kill than the last.
At first, I was having fun playing, but I was worried about you, so I kept yelling and killing all the way, but in the end I didn't even bother to kill you.
As for the goblins and the like, why don't you throw a Shub here? I don't care, I just want to be by your side now."
Zhen Cheng was speechless. If you throw a Shub over, this galaxy would be gone, right? Although that guy does seem to like eating goblins.
However, looking at the rare willful and coquettish sister A, she couldn't bear to drive others to work. However, she didn't want to follow the two little guys who were poking their heads at the door and suddenly interrupted:
"If it's an assassination mission, can you leave it to us?"
The one who spoke was the elder sister. She was jumping up and down with her hands raised, looking eager to try. On the contrary, the younger sister was more stable and explained:
"We have just become the favored ones of the [Red Lotus Death God], and we need to prove our worth and express our gratitude to our Lord.
But you have also seen that our strength is limited. It is probably difficult to help with really important things, and besides killing, we are not good at anything else..."
The little girl said and silently clasped her fingers, which made Zhen Cheng want to laugh. It really didn't suit her sister's temper to accept two such interesting little guys.
But it's good to have someone to help. Zhen Cheng waved his hand: "Then I'll leave this matter to you. Go and find out about the situation with the guy in the window and leave as soon as possible. As for us..."
"As for you, if you want to hurry up, you will have to help me complete other tasks at the same time."
At the right time, Virgo was led into the room by Sun Nini, followed by two mature ladies, the gardener and the hairdresser, who Zhen Cheng got angry at the sight of.
The fearful mayor looked away as soon as he saw Zhen Cheng's gaze, and said bravely:
"A rather difficult trouble suddenly occurred, and it should be something you are better at handling.
A new child who joined the town has disappeared, probably leaving the boundaries of the town. From your realm, you should have seen that the boundaries of the Dominion cannot be seen directly through higher dimensions.
In other words, this is a problem that requires traditional detective methods to solve. But there are no detectives in Harmony Town. As an autonomous territory with public trust and order, we don’t even need church mourners to assist law enforcement."
Virgo said very proudly, but there was a hint of anxiety in his tone.
"I thought Harmony Town was one of the safest autonomous territories." Zhen Cheng stared at Virgo thoughtfully. She really didn't understand what medicine he was selling in his gourd.
After all, this place is inside the Land of Wanwo. External forces that have the ability to break in and cause destruction do not need to worry about such a small town.
The biggest threat around them is a group of goblin tribes. With the strength of Virgo, they can be wiped out with a wave of their hands, or at least they can be easily dispersed.
What dangers will a missing citizen encounter? Even if there is real danger, would such a powerful Virgo be unable to solve it on his own? Does he need to be so nervous?
"The missing child is still very young. She is a girl who has not yet obtained citizenship rights." Before Virgo could hesitate, the gardener on the side directly interjected and explained:
"The mayor went through complicated procedures and adopted her on the premise that the two of them voluntarily adopted her.
It's still the child's adaptation period, and if anything happens at this time, it will be very troublesome for the child and the mayor."
It seems that for this dusty female gardener, the missing girl is far more important than hindering the missing person task at hand.
Zhen Cheng nodded in agreement, and then said to Virgo: "Of course we will help you find someone, I do have a lot of experience in this kind of thing.
But if this can be done, shouldn’t we..."
Zhen Cheng's meaning is already very clear. I'm going to help you solve such a big trouble, so don't worry about it, just give me the information.
She was really helpless with the residents of Harmony Town. Even though they were trying hard to talk to each other, every one of them remained tight-lipped as if they had colluded with each other a long time ago.
Unexpectedly, Virgo seemed not to understand, and nodded in agreement: "This is natural, Sun Nini has already conveyed your request, and I have already agreed to such a deal.
We will complete all the tasks at once and we will not find any excuses to shirk it. Of course, this also includes the priority tracing task."
After saying that, she winked at Sun Nini. The little fox girl couldn't help but sent a list she had already made to Zhen Cheng's hands.
There are many kinds of tasks on the list, a total of 152 tasks. It includes everything from feeding cattle to explaining a certain math problem, from fighting sparring to unblocking sewers.
After browsing the list, Zhen Cheng gave Virgo a meaningful look.
She has matured with age, and the simple girl who looks about the same age as herself in front of her actually has experience and experiences that are beyond her reach.
No matter what their plans were before, Zhen Cheng could tell after he showed his cards that this guy was trying to turn the negotiation into an unfair labor blackmail.
It probably means: I can't stop you anyway, so why don't you at least pay a corresponding price for us to cooperate? This kind of meaning.
It is impossible for Misha to control all the details of the Land of All Me. When it comes to places governed by humans, places like Harmony Town whose ideas are contrary to the mainstream will inevitably be squeezed out intentionally or unintentionally.
This can be seen from the dilapidation of the town.
So Zhen Cheng still understands the little thoughts of Virgo to some extent.
But no matter what, this is good news. It shows that the residents of Harmony Town are not as determined as the butcher shop proprietress to organize themselves to complete the missing persons task.
"Let them all come in." From Virgo's unconfident expression, Zhen Cheng guessed that the church singer she asked Sun Nini to contact should have already arrived.
However, Sun Nini looked embarrassed, hesitated for a moment, and advised: "How about... Your Highness should go out in person?"
Zhen Cheng was stunned.
She thought that the All-Women Church would actively cooperate with her actions, because Qu Yun did seem anxious about this inexplicable mission.
She also thought that the church would push back, or even directly refuse to participate, because the previous hidden information transmission made her realize that the task at hand might not tolerate too much external intervention for some reason.
But she just didn't think about it, that the All-Self Church would actually put on airs about her, the Preface Poet.
