The guards who were chasing the assassin hurriedly left after searching to no avail. Only then did the young man in black come out of hiding and prepare to leave.
Fernandez was assassinated in the first half of the night, and a large number of guards were involved in the search in the second half of the night. Although Fernandez was just a tool that the Grand Duke was going to use, the assassination of the tool obviously challenged the Grand Duke's majesty, and the Grand Duke would not let the assassin go easily.
.
The young man knew that it would be impossible to escape Tivia in the past few days, so he could only hide on the spot and wait for the peak period of manhunts to pass before seeking an opportunity to leave.
"Stop time at the moment of landing, bypass the protection of mid-level extraordinary people, kill the quasi-mayor, and then leave. The process is very coherent and the technique is good."
An unfamiliar voice suddenly sounded. The young man was startled and looked back.
I saw a young man appear inexplicably in the originally empty room, sitting casually by the window sill, his legs swinging back and forth leisurely.
"Ah, hello." The young man waved, "I am..."
Before he finished speaking, the boy disappeared the next moment.
The young man's hand paused in the air, and then he tapped his eyebrows helplessly: "It's a good thing to be more vigilant, but it will be troublesome to chase him."
In the alley downstairs, the young man walked briskly through the darkness.
He didn't know who the young man who just appeared was, but he was being hunted right now, so communicating with him rashly would obviously put him at a disadvantage, or it was a better idea.
However, his extraordinary ability did not have too much physical strength. After using the ability several times in a row and exercising at high intensity for a long time, the young man was also a little exhausted. After entering a dead end, he really did not have the strength to climb up the wall and planned to rest first.
A few breaths.
"It's really rude to run away without waiting for me to finish what I said."
The sound he just heard sounded again. The young man froze. He raised his head and saw the young man sitting on the wall he was about to climb over.
The young man subconsciously wanted to activate his ability again, but the stinging pain in his chest made him hesitate. The warm liquid flowed across his lips and chin. He raised his hand and touched it, and found that it was his own nosebleed.
"The ability to stop time is very powerful, but continuous use will make your body unable to bear it." The young man tilted his head, "Are you sure you want to use it again? You might not be able to walk anymore."
The young man stared coldly at the guy in front of him: "Who are you?"
"I just planned to introduce myself, but you ran away without listening, and now you ask me - 'Who are you'?" The young man shook his head, "Say again, my name is Wayne Noyes.
He is a novelist."
"Novelist?" This identity stunned the young man.
Can a novelist appear quietly near him, and even catch up with him when he activates his ability to escape?
"Is this status not stylish enough? Well, I've been thinking recently about whether to be a detective part-time. That might be quite interesting."
The young man frowned: "What do you want to do?"
"Caught you in exchange for a bounty? Ha, let's start a - eh?"
In an instant, the young man's blade was only a dozen centimeters away from Wein's face, but at such a short distance, it was difficult for the blade to move forward even 1 centimeter.
Because Wein's left hand reached out and grasped the blade from the back.
"You can easily hurt people like this." Wein smiled, "Or are you just trying to kill me?"
"You are always willing to kill people, which will make you suffer a lot."
There were a few drops of cold sweat on the young man's face. Although he was holding a sword at Wein at this moment and seemed to have the upper hand, the young man understood that the guy in front of him could definitely take him down easily.
Not to mention that the force coming from where Wein was holding the blade prevented the boy from moving the blade at all. The way Wein held the blade was enough to frighten the boy. Most people, even with quick eyesight and hands, would quickly see the blade coming towards them and block it.
Normally he would block the blade, but Wei Yin was holding the back of the blade at this moment. In other words... he not only saw the incoming blade, he also raised his hand faster and grabbed the blade from behind.
If Wein's other hand had not been idle and had made an attack, the boy's eyes might have been poked out. At such a close distance, the boy was holding a knife in both hands, leaving no room for defense.
"It seems like you have figured out the difference in strength between you and me. Can you put down your weapons and have a good talk?"
The young man was silent for a few seconds, then his grip on the handle of the knife loosened, and Wein let go of the blade.
At this moment, there was another noise not far away, it was the guards searching for the assassin.
"The pursuers are coming, do you still plan to keep running? You see, running and hiding all the way is not an option." Wein raised his chin, "Suzheng Bureau has a way to determine the direction of the assassin like you. You
It’s hard to get rid of them, but I have the means to erase their tracking of you, do you want to follow me?”
The young man remained silent.
"There's nothing to hesitate about. Does the famous assassin 'Peregrine Falcon' need to be afraid of a weak scholar like me?"
