Chapter 27: A Chance Encounter

"You can stay in this room for now. Someone will call you later if something happens." Isaiah arranged a room for Ahs and left.

Ahes looked at the key in his hand and the gorgeous door in front of him, hesitated for a moment and then opened it.

The room is very big, just like a retro hotel. There is a toilet and a bathtub in the bathroom. If there is a TV hanging on the wall and a mobile phone in the pocket, Ahs may forget that he has traveled through time.

"It's really incredible. No wonder those people are so eager to come and work in the capital. It's so enjoyable to live in a place like this every day." Ahs thought as he lay down on the soft bed and looked up.

, there is also a landline phone on the bedside table.

"By the way, where is Claire now? It's really troublesome not to have a mobile phone." Ahs thought as he glanced at the landline phone.

At this time, Claire was on the carriage. Cars in the Kingdom of Helworth are not yet capable of long-distance travel, so they can only ride on the carriage.

The carriage has been traveling for a day.

"I'm sorry, miss, I think we have to stop for a while." The coachman stopped and turned to Claire and said, "My horse and I are very hungry, I think we need to replenish our strength first."

Claire nodded.

"Well, let's meet here at ten o'clock. I'll only charge you the toll for this journey." The coachman glanced at his watch. It was nine o'clock now.

Claire also got off the carriage. After a day's journey, Claire also felt a little hungry. In the past, Claire didn't feel much if she didn't eat for a week, but during this time, after Ahes' long-term 'feeding' of Claire

It is also necessary to eat three or even four meals a day.

We came to a noodle shop. This noodle shop was very small and could only accommodate five people, not counting the kitchen. But luckily, it was already very late. Claire sat at a seat against the wall and ordered a noodle dish. In fact, it was

The cooked noodles are mixed with some tomato sauce and meat sauce. Ahes has made a kind of noodle soup that is much more delicious than this. Maybe Claire has been tired of it after eating it for too many years.

"Looking at it from this, I really hope that guy's restaurant can open soon." Claire thought as she stirred the noodles with a fork.

At this time, a person sat next to Claire. The person was wearing a black cloak that covered his whole body. The black cloak looked very new, probably a new one. Claire didn’t pay attention to that person until she raised her arm.

At this time, the cloak was slightly opened, and Claire accidentally caught a glimpse of a large number of sharp blades in the cloak.

"Looks like a killer." Claire thought, and used the Book of Insight to observe her recent past. Without looking, Claire was really surprised.

Just yesterday, this man attacked Ahes not long ago.

"Is he really a killer, and his target is that guy Ahs?" Claire thought in her mind.

It's not surprising to encounter a killer in this world full of killers. Claire originally didn't want to see it anymore, but since the target is Ahs, Claire can't ignore it.

Just when Claire was about to use the Book of Insight to look at her earlier past, the man suddenly turned his head.

"Um, you've been looking at me since just now. Do we know each other, or do you have something to do?" she asked.

"Is it the killer's intuition? I should have been very careful, but I still discovered it." Claire thought.

"No, it's okay, I recognized the wrong person." Claire said.

She did not pursue the matter further, turned her head and continued to remain silent.

Claire quickly finished the noodles and prepared to leave.

"In short, her assassination failed. No powerful forbidden book list or other power can't deal with Ahes. With his brain, I shouldn't have to worry about it." Claire thought while wiping her mouth with a tissue.

road.

Shortly after Claire left, the manager of the store walked out.

"Good evening, Rui Yi." The store manager smiled and handed over a cup of hot black tea, "Looking at you, the mission was not very successful."

"The mission failed, but it's not my fault. That Ahes is not like the intelligence said he only has a Book of Ashes, and he can only use it in his right hand." Rui Yi took the black tea and said, "That guy at least

There are three high-level contracts, let alone the assassination, I almost won't be able to come back."

"This is indeed beyond my expectation. It seems that he signed those contracts during the period when he was expelled from the family." The store took a long breath and said, "I really can't believe it. How did he do it?"

If he still has the energy to sign those contracts while doing so many things, even if he has time, he has been expelled from the family and should not have the money to buy the contracts."

"Then, do you want to give up the mission?"

"Of course not. I was just careless that time. Now that I have figured out his details, I will definitely succeed if I try it again. But..." Rui Yi said, reaching out to the store manager, "Yes.

Add money."

The store manager smiled and took out five gold coins from his pocket. According to the current exchange rate, one gold coin is equivalent to six thousand karks.

"By the way, his last name is the same as yours, Gardner." The store manager suddenly said, "Is it a coincidence, or do you have some relationship?"

"Huh, I don't know. You don't need to worry about it." Ruiyi put away the gold coins and left the store.
