Bing Zhixie went upstairs and brought a cup of iced coffee. She was about to go back to her room to take a good look at the night view of the imperial capital when she heard someone whispering at the corner at the end of the corridor.
"This time, there are many children from wealthy families coming to Kulanting Academy from all over the country. If we do a job or two, we are sure to make a lot of money."
"Hehehe... I think so too. Do you have a goal?"
"Just now in the restaurant below, I heard a girl calling herself Isabel."
"That Isabel from Sherman?"
The person in front laughed and said: "Is there any other famous Isabel in the Demon Moon Empire?"
"Are you sure?"
"She said it herself. I just went to the front desk to inquire. There were three of them checking in. The little girl named Isabel stayed in a room alone without any family members."
"How did you get this information?"
"You can always ask if you have money. I think this job will be enough for the three of us to make a fortune."
The three people murmured for a while, then walked out of the corner with suppressed excitement. Bing Zhixie took the door key and opened the door to his room. The three people passed by the door, not suspecting that their conversation just now was.
Listen to the little white-haired boy who opened the door. In fact, their voices are very low and it is difficult for ordinary people to hear them.
When Bing Zhixie closed the door, he glanced at the faces of the three people. One of them felt a little familiar. He closed the door, took out the small bag he put under the bed, and pulled out a few mission sheets for the mercenary guild, one of which was B.
The name on the level task list fell into his eyes, along with a vague portrait.
He put back several other task lists, leaving out the reward list for the kidnapper. A smile appeared on his lips: "It seems I have something to do."
At night, all the guests in the hotel were asleep. Only the front aisle was still lit. The night receptionist was sleeping on a sofa where he usually receives guests. He was covered with a thin blanket and was already fast asleep.
.
In front of the window, the curtains were half-closed, and the quiet moonlight spilled in from the window, shining on the white quilt next to the window sill. Cornelia was sleeping soundly, with her delicate Yao nose on one side and breathing lightly.
At this time, a dark figure passed through the curtains. This person was dressed in light gray clothes and hung upside down on the red brick wall outside the hotel. He leaned towards Cornelia's window, but he did not make a move easily. He knew the window sill of the hotel.
There is a simple and invisible magic circle set up in the city to prevent people like him from breaking in from the outside.
The man in gray took out the magic stone pen and spent half an hour drawing a larger magic circle around the entire window. He pressed his hand on the magic circle, and the magic power started to circulate. A palm-sized invisible small circle appeared on the window sill.
The light appeared. The man in light gray clothes showed a proud smile: "I know these small hotels are always lazy. It is too easy to make this simple magic circle invalid."
He did some tricks on the formation, and with a 'whoosh' sound, the small magic formation on the window sill ignited a small blue flame, which was quickly extinguished, leaving only a puff of green smoke and a black magic trace.
The mark remained on the window sill. He gestured to the people watching below.
There were two people below on lookout. One was standing at the street intersection to prevent patrolling police officers from coming, and the other was guarding the door of the hotel under the window to respond. When the man who responded saw that his companion above had finished his work, he stepped forward and jumped.
When he got to the window sill, he created a small summoning magic circle in his hand and summoned a group of plants as big as twine in the palm of his hand.
This group of plants is called Ichthyophora. It parasitizes on fish, shrimp and other aquatic products near the pond, slowly eating away at the host. This plant-like monster is usually the most hated creature by fishermen, but it is the favorite of thieves.
With the guardian monster, you can easily slide through doors and open windows.
The fishtail algae was lying on the window sill, and the silk-like algae leaves on its body got in along the gap in the window. From the inside, it gently wrapped around the window bolt and pulled it. There was a slight click and the window opened.
The slight sound behind her ears did not alarm the familiar Cornelia, but she still felt it when someone was standing in front of her bed. She opened her eyes and saw a black shadow blocking her eyes, and she was startled.
, just as she was about to get up to get a clear look, a strong hand wrapped in a handkerchief covered her mouth. She struggled hard for a while, and a pungent smell came from her nose, and she soon lost consciousness.
Passed out.
The two of them succeeded and showed knowing smiles. The two of them carried Cornelia out of the window, one holding the meat ticket, and the other called the accomplices who had been escorted to retreat quickly.
Barron shuttled through the dark and quiet alleys. The red-nosed deerhound in front was clearing the way for him, looking for an unguarded route to leave. He was very excited. He knew that the ticket he had tied up tonight would be enough to make him comfortable.
After spending the rest of his life, Sherman's Isabel was a well-known local family. If this girl was really a member of the Isabel family, even if she was not a direct relative, she would definitely be able to get a large ransom. He has now begun to imagine,
If nothing else happens, he will buy a luxurious house by the sea, eat the most delicious seafood for breakfast, drink the most beautiful wine, and live his 'retirement' life comfortably. He can even change to a different beauty every day and enjoy
A life that I had never enjoyed in the first half of my life. No, I could have enjoyed this kind of life a long time ago. If my previous partner and that cousin had not taken away all the money, I would not be reduced to the situation where I am still here.
Work hard for the rest of your life.
Barron has always resented his last partner, and even swore that if he saw that couple again, he would break their necks with his own hands. But he doesn’t think so now, Isabel
The daughter of the family, with this vote, he can get back what he lost, and maybe even more. He is even a little grateful to the couple. If they hadn't taken away his money, he wouldn't be here.
Debiles from the Demon Moon wouldn't want to come here to make a big buck. He didn't know why Isabel's daughter would live in such a small hotel, and he didn't need to know. He just wanted to know that after this vote,
He will start a new life.
Suddenly, the red-nosed deerhound running in front suddenly barked, and Barron frowned in displeasure. This guard dog he had raised has been with him for six years. Not only is it very smart, its senses are very sharp, but it has also never
Without barking, even if it encounters a guard on the way out, it will retreat quietly and find a new roundabout route.
"Red Nose, what are you doing?" Barron scolded lightly, and he and his two partners stopped where they were and did not pursue them.
After a while, the red-nosed deerhound stopped barking. The two partners were a little nervous because they didn't see the red-nosed deerhound retreat.
"Go up to the room." Barron suggested, and he jumped onto the roof with Cornelia in two or three steps. However, as soon as he landed, he found a white-haired boy standing on the roof of another room more than ten meters away under the moonlight.
Barron was startled. He had seen this young man twice before, in the restaurant and on the corridor of the hotel. He was frightened: "Has he been targeting me for a long time?" Barron couldn't help but think so.
A bit of anger and surprise surged up in him. He was surprised that this young man could actually block him, and he was also angry that this young man actually dared to block him.
When the two partners jumped to the roof, they were also frightened by this scene and looked at each other.
"Leave them alone, and I can consider letting you live." Bing Zhixie looked at them quietly, her old magic robe fluttering in the wind, but the expression on her face was calm.
Barron was angry, really angry. He had traveled across the continent for so many years and had seen everything, but no kid had ever dared to say such a thing in front of him. His iron fists had kept him safe throughout the continent for decades.
He has been training hard for twenty-three years to use the Poyan Fist. Even a three-story building can be destroyed by half with one punch. Even his peers or masters who are more powerful than him can't stand in front of his fists.
You have to be polite.
"Boy, you are looking for death!" Barron squeezed these words out from between his teeth, and waved his hand: "Go on, don't leave anyone alive!"
The three of them ran quickly towards the white-haired kid opposite. They stepped on the edge of the eaves and rushed towards the opposite roof. However, at this moment, Barron found that the kid in front of him suddenly disappeared, and then a cold voice came from him.
came to my ears.
"Death? Haha. Have you ever heard the sound of death?" Bing Zhixie gently stepped on Barron's left shoulder with one foot, looking at the other two kidnappers rushing behind Barron, mouthing
An evil smile appeared on his side.
The three of them were immediately shocked. They didn't see clearly when the boy in front of them moved. Barron didn't even feel when the other person's foot stepped on his shoulder.
The horror was not over yet. Barron suddenly felt a chill on his neck, followed by a surge of warmth. In the next scene, he saw blood mist spurting out of his neck.
The man in light gray clothes was so frightened that he couldn't breathe. He didn't know what kind of monster the boy in front of him was, but the blood spurting from Barron's neck and seeing the girl falling from Barron's hand made him immediately
After waking up, the white-haired boy in front of him really came to kill them! He quickly drew out the short knife inserted in his waist and slashed at the boy 1.5 meters away. His speed in drawing the knife was always praised, and he used it on himself
He has always been quite confident in his speed. He is sure that in the next 0.3 seconds, one of the arms of the boy in front of him will be cut into two pieces by his knife. He has never missed at such a close distance.
But unexpectedly, his confident knife missed. Just when he thought his sharp fingers would feel the pressure from the handle of the knife, the boy in front of him disappeared. Just like the previous time, he didn't see the boy at all.
How did it disappear? There was no trace left by the movement of the white-haired boy. Soon he found that the palm of his hand holding the knife had no feeling. He watched his waving arm draw a parabola, and his palm flew away from his wrist.
He walked out. He opened his mouth in fear, and a cry was about to burst out from his throat. The next moment, he heard cold words coming from his ears.
"This is the last movement you hear in your life, the prelude to death."
The man in gray turned his eyes, and he saw an old boot with mud on the edge, an old gray robe, and the side of the boy's cheek.
The ice blade in Bing Zhixie's hand gently wiped it, and he didn't look at this person's face at all, because he knew that this person was already dead, and there was no accident!
The remaining pockmarked man was so frightened that he lost his center of gravity in the air. He hit the wall of the opposite house and fell into the alley. When he fell to the ground in pain, his eyes saw a pair of feet gently
He landed on the ground two meters away. The white-haired boy in front of him not only landed on the ground at the same time as him, but also caught the girl who slipped from Barron's hand.
"Let me go, please let me go, I'm not the mastermind, this matter has nothing to do with me." The pockmarked man shouted in fear, realizing that he could not be the boy's opponent at all.
Bing Zhixie tilted her head slightly and looked at the pleading man on the ground without any emotion: "You only have one chance. You have already lost it."
A touch of blood was the last thing the pockmarked man saw when he closed his eyes...
The three kidnappers fell to the ground, but they were not dead, just unconscious. Bingzhixie sealed their wounds, dragged the chief criminal Barron, and left with Cornelia in his arms.
Back at the hotel, Bing Zhixie gently put Cornelia on the bed, stood in front of the window and looked down at the girl. He was not a person who asked for nothing in return, but the bounty he had just exchanged for the mercenary union
