Jia Zhengjin, who sent her here, left directly without stopping at all.
Unlike before, Julianne was a little lost in class today.
When it was lunch break, several female students who usually had a close relationship gathered around me.
"Julian, what's wrong with you today? Are you worried?"
"That's right! Julianne, I feel like I haven't had much energy since the morning!"
"Is it because of the murder last night? It doesn't matter!"
"How about you apply to live in the college?"
"That's right! It's absolutely safe in the academy. Although your home is very close, it's quite troublesome to go back and forth every day."
"Your family runs a grocery store, so the money is definitely not a problem."
"that is!"
...
Faced with the caring words from the girls, Julian felt warm in her heart: "Thank you everyone! In fact, I am planning to apply to live on campus. There have been a series of murders recently, and I always feel unsafe."
"Great! Let's live together then."
"Well! So Julianne, you don't have to worry too much!"
"Thanks!"
"Why are you still depressed?"
"Yes! Julianne, you are usually very cheerful, right?"
"If you have anything to say, you can tell me and everyone will help you."
"That's it!"
"What's bothering you?"
Facing the girls' chattering questions, Julianne hesitated and whispered: "Actually, it's because of my playmate!"
"Oh? It's the same Cohen who takes you to school every day and then lends you home?"
"Um!"
"What's wrong with him?"
"Actually, this is it..." Julianne told her friends exactly what happened.
After listening, the girls chatted in low voices, and one of them said: "This matter is actually nothing to worry about! Julianne, it is normal for Cohen to do this after something like that happened. After all, he was almost killed by Martin. If he is lucky,
If it’s not eaten by the monster, it will be even worse! Let me ask you first, regarding Cohen, apart from treating him as a playmate, do you really treat him as the opposite sex?”
"How is that possible?" Julianne shook her head without thinking, "He? The opposite sex? We have been good friends since childhood."
"Then have you ever thought about falling in love or getting married to anyone else?"
"this......"
"Tell the truth! There's nothing to be ashamed of."
"that is!"
Facing the questions from her friends, Julianne nodded hesitantly.
"Isn't this the end of the world? You don't regard Cohen as the opposite sex, but the boy who pursues you will mistake him for your love rival. And the boy you like may also be because he doesn't want to get close to you! So everything Cohen does is nothing.
What a problem!"
"but......"
"But he and you have been playing together since childhood, and suddenly they are so different from each other, which makes you very uncomfortable and awkward?"
"Um!"
"Julian, everyone has grown up and will take different paths. So don't think too much. For his own good and for your own good, try to change! Friends don't necessarily have to be together like children every day.
.Don’t think so much, by the way, who is the boy you like?”
"That's right, Julianne, who do you like?"
"Tell us about it?"
"Oh, don't be like this~" Julianne blushed immediately when this topic was mentioned.
"Just tell me! Who do you like?"
"Say! Maybe we can help you?"
"I don't know~"
"Hey, don't run away!"
...
On the other side, after Jia Zhengjin sent Julianne to the academy, he turned directly to the Adventurer's Guild.
Entering the guild, I found that the looks coming from all directions were different.
This is understandable. After all, the Adventurer's Guild must have received the news immediately about the case that occurred last night.
In fact, it was an adventurer who discovered the body and notified the guards. Someone returned from a mission and found the body at night. After calling the guards, he also reported the matter to the Adventurer's Guild.
No one here believes that Cohen could kill those six people, but they feel 100% that the death of the six people is inseparable from him, otherwise it would not be such a coincidence that Cohen was on his way home.
"Cohen!" When he appeared, Molly shouted directly to him, "Come here, I want to know more about last night's case, tell me everything you know!"
The guards must have entrusted the Adventurer's Guild to inquire about this matter, which does not mean that they will definitely pursue it, but at least they must find out the truth.
This time, it is clear at first glance that the six Havedi people are interested in making money. Regarding this situation, the Adventurer's Guild has the priority to deal with it. After all, it is a grudge between adventurers. Unless the guild does not, the guards will intervene.
When Jia Zhengjin arrived at the counter, the adventurers sitting here pricked up their ears, and many even stood up and walked behind him.
"Cohen, last night I met Havedi's team, and the body was found on the way to Hawke Village." Molly raised her head and asked, "Based on the information at the scene, it was initially determined that they had the intention of blocking the road and robbing property. And yesterday
You have received a windfall, and it happens to be the best target. Considering the location of the crime, I believe it is aimed at you! Of course, you don’t have to be afraid, the guild will deal with it impartially. As long as you are not the one who committed the crime, it is normal.
Defense state. We just need to explain the cause and effect clearly!"
"Molly, how can he possibly wipe out Havedi and his team with such a coward?" Someone shouted from behind, "Just ask him to explain who helped and saved his life last night!"
"Exactly! Without the help of experts, ten Cohens are no match for Havedi."
"Who killed Havedi? Or which team did it? Did Cohen hold him in his arms? Or was it just a kind-hearted passerby who helped?"
"Say it! Speak it quickly!"
No one believes that it was Cohen himself who killed Havedi and his companions. It’s so unconvincing!
What all adventurers are curious about is simply who killed Havedi's team.
Molly had the same view, staring at Jia Zhengjin expectantly.
Jia Zhengjin knew that no one would believe the truth. Even if there was no so-called helper at this time, he could only make it up out of thin air. So he said loudly: "That's right! Yesterday, I was on my way home and was suddenly surrounded by Havedi's team. They wanted me
Hand over everything and go home naked. At this moment, an armored knight suddenly came and rushed over without saying a word, killing one against six, leaving Havedi's team unable to parry. Later, he also chased an archer.
Far away, I never came back. Because I was afraid, I escaped home first to save myself. I didn’t know who the armored knight was, and he never appeared again!”
"According to the on-site investigation data, it is consistent with what you said." Molly said, "The battle traces show that Havedi's team did suffer an unimaginable impact, and one person was indeed chased a long way away and then killed.
It’s just that there are too many horse hoof prints on the road, so I don’t know where the armored knight you mentioned has gone!”
"I don't know either!" Jia Zhengjin said quickly, "I was too scared at the time, so I ran away early..."
