Looking at Rebecca's actions, no matter how stupid Yuumi was, she knew what it meant.
"But I, I have no money." Youmi felt a little embarrassed when she heard this.
"Then take the dried fish in your package as my reward."
"How do you know this is dried fish?" Youmi was a little confused.
"Such a strong smell, you can smell it as soon as you smell it."
"Really?" Yumi smelled it suspiciously, but she couldn't smell anything except the strong smell of alcohol. "Why can't I smell it?"
"Haha, your nose is bad~"
"But if I give you this, I won't have anything to eat."
"Hey, what's the big deal? Wait a minute and I'll take you to find your companions. Don't you need to eat this kind of thing?"
"That's okay," the naive Yumi believed Rebecca's words.
After Rebecca finished her drink, she finally left the tavern with Yuumi, who was already anxious.
"Rebina, is this really this road? Isn't this going outside the imperial capital?"
"Don't worry, don't worry, I took your dried fish, how could I cheat you~" Rebenai, who seemed to be drunk, walked out with Yumi, looking righteous.
"But this is really going to the city gate." Following Rebecca as she walked through the increasingly familiar intersection, she finally asked when she saw the towering city gate.
"Don't be anxious?" Rebecca led Youmi to the gate of the city and whispered to him, "Peek over here and I'll talk to you."
Although she didn't want to waste time with this guy, Yuumi still pricked up her ears.
"I'm telling you, I don't know where your companion is. You'd better go back. The Imperial City is not a good place."
Yumi froze on the spot, watching as Rebene left his sight after two or three times.
"This kid should be wise enough to leave. I'm not a liar. If you exchange a few dried fish for a small life, that kid will make a lot of money." Rebecca, who was walking away, no longer had the drunken state she had just now.
He ran away happily.
"I've been cheated. I've really been cheated." Youmi stood there dumbfounded and was at a loss.
"The village chief is right, the imperial capital is really a dangerous place, and there are also liars." Yumi shivered, feeling the cold wind in the imperial capital at night.
"parking!"
At this moment, a carriage came in from outside the city. As it passed in front of Youmi, a gentle female voice came from the carriage.
Yuumi raised her head, and saw a doll-like girl wearing a noble dress, slowly and elegantly walking out of the carriage.
"Are you another poor person with nowhere to go? If you have no place to stay, you can come to my house and I can help you." The girl who came down said to the helpless Yuumi.
At this moment, Yuumi seemed to have seen an angel coming, but the experience of being deceived just now made the naive Yuumi feel a little defensive.
"He is indeed a poor person. He is so defensive against the outside world. Don't be afraid, I will not harm you."
"Humph, you ungrateful guy. My Miss Jinx is a well-known good person in the imperial capital. She often takes in low-class people like you, and she is often scolded by the master and his wife for this." The coachman started to curse.
Yuumi,
"Okay, it makes sense for others to be on guard." Jinx waved his hand and stopped the coachman from continuing, "What do you think, poor man?"
"I", Yumi agreed, looking at Jinx who was like an angel, "then thank you, you are such a good person."
Hearing Yumi's agreement, Jinx's smile became even brighter.
…
On the other side, Kyle, who had always longed to join the Imperial Army, was now following Lucai as he wandered from street to street.
"Lucai, um, why don't we even take a break? It's already so late, and we're not on duty tonight." Kyle, who was almost exhausted, dragged his tired body and looked at the man in front of him who didn't know why he had so much energy.
girl.
"Although we are not on duty today, it is your first day on the job. I will take you to every corner of the imperial capital to prevent you from having problems in the process of enforcing justice in the future." Liu Sai turned around with a serious look on his face.
looked at Kyle.
"But isn't there still time in the future? Isn't it the same as slowly understanding it?" Kyle was a little crazy.
"No, the execution of justice cannot be delayed! Isn't that right, Xiaoke?"
"Woof!"
"But I didn't originally want to join the Imperial Guard," Kyle said in a low voice.
"What did you say?"
"I said, I originally wanted to join General Calista's army, but I didn't want to join the Imperial Guard," Kyle said awkwardly.
"Although General Sangli Dolma is admirable, can't he enforce justice in the Imperial Guard?" Liu Sai seemed a little angry.
"No, no, I didn't mean that. I just wanted to say that I would rather be under General Sangli Dolma." Kyle saw Liu Sai's angry expression and felt a little unsure.
"This only shows that your heart of justice is not pure, isn't it?"
"Woof!"
"..." Kyle didn't know what to say, so he just stopped talking.
"Woof!"
"It seems like something happened over there." Kyle and Xiaoke suddenly turned their attention to the other side.
"What? There is a sin that needs to be eliminated!? Xiao Kezao!"
After Xiao Ke barked, Liu Sai suddenly ran in that direction like a hound that had smelled its prey.
…
And in Kyle their destination is.
"Hey~ Why do I feel so weak?" Youmi slowly got up from the bed.
"Could it be that she was drugged?" Youmi touched the best sword in the village that she brought out, patted her face, and sobered up for a while.
Yuumi, who felt something bad in her heart, walked out of the room cautiously with her sword in hand. In the quiet corridor, a few rays of moonlight shone in from the window, and a slight wind blew. There was no sound of No. 4, only a trace of
Odor.
"This is the smell of blood!" Yuumi, who had often followed the village hunter uncle to hunt since childhood in order to practice sword skills, immediately asked about the smell of blood in the air.
Yuumi, who originally felt something was wrong, became more cautious. As expected, not long after, Yuumi saw the guards who fell in the corridor and were fatally struck by a blow, and she became even more anxious.
"Oops, something has happened to Miss Jinx!" An anxious Yuumi quickened her pace.
Sure enough, when passing the master bedroom, Yumi saw the noble couple who died tragically on the bed, who were Jinx's parents.
"Who killed two such aristocratic people here?" Youmi gritted her teeth and secretly hated her, but now he just wanted to find Jinx and protect her.
