【249】Marnie

"Let's go, I'll take you home!"

Wuming opened his eyes, smiled at Marnie and said.

"No, I finally managed to sneak out. I want to go treasure hunting. I want to make a fortune!" Marnie immediately refused. As she spoke, she turned around and ran away. Just as a group of guards rushed out from the corner of the passage, both sides spotted each other.

Wuming was startled and moved to Marnie's side instantly. He picked up Marnie with one hand and held her in his arms. His body retreated at a very fast speed. At the same time, the water curtain opened like a shield. In the blink of an eye, the water curtain pressed against all the guards.

.

boom!

The water curtain hit the wall, and all the guards were crushed into pieces.

Wuming glanced at Marnie, who was not injured, and breathed a sigh of relief.

He looked seriously at Marnie in his arms and warned: "This is the base of the Beast Controlling Zhu family. It is very dangerous. You can easily get injured if you run around like this. If you are caught by someone from the Beast Controlling Zhu family,

That would be terrible!"

"Okay, I'm sorry!" Mani felt Wuming's seriousness and admitted her mistake obediently.

Wuming immediately lost his temper. He rubbed Marnie's head and comforted her: "It's okay, big brother is very strong, but the entire base must have been alarmed now. Let's go first."

He is not afraid. The problem is that Marnie is not a calm master. If something happens during the battle, it will be in trouble.

"Oh." Marnie agreed obediently.

Wuming immediately carried her and stepped into the Dream River, then placed her on the bank and said with a smile: "Okay, it's safe here. Let's go, I'll take you home."

"Brother, do you think there will be gold at the bottom of the water?" Marnie looked at the dark river water and asked curiously.

Wuming smiled bitterly and said, "Probably not."

"What a pity." Marnie said disappointedly.

Wuming held her hand and asked curiously: "By the way, there are three questions in total. The last question is, Marnie, why did you show up at the Zhu family's base?"

"I know this question because there is treasure there!" Marnie replied immediately.

Wuming frowned, and suddenly sensed something. He immediately controlled the river to raise a water curtain, and the scene of the Beast Control Zhu family's base immediately appeared in the water curtain.

In the scene, Zhu Chengmian stabbed Zhu Taihao to death with a dagger, and was hit in the ribs by Zhu Taihao's palm, causing him to vomit blood and fall back.

"The traitor!"

Zhu Taihao reluctantly got up, and after taking two steps, his eyes widened and he died.

Zhu Chengmian wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, looked at Zhu Taihao's body, and finally burst into wild laughter.

"Marnie, how did you know he was going to die?" Wuming asked curiously as he looked at Zhu Taihao, who was still dead in the picture. He still remembered the first thing Marnie said was that Zhu Taihao was going to die.

"This is the fourth question!" Marnie said with a money-obsessed look.

Wuming took out a piece of gold and said helplessly: "Old rules, three questions."

"Deal!" Marnie said happily immediately.

Wuming had actually noticed one detail, that is, the gold that Marnie had accepted was missing. When he picked up Marnie just now, he discovered that Marnie's pocket was flat.

The two gold nuggets were about the same size as baseballs. No matter how big Marnie's pocket was, they shouldn't be completely missing.

Either that pocket is space equipment, or it's some kind of superpower of Marnie's.

Wuming repeated the previous question, and Marnie replied: "Because I know, that's why I know."

"..."

Wuming felt that today was definitely the day he was most stimulated. What kind of answer was this?

Although he doesn't care about gold, it doesn't mean he doesn't know the value of gold. At least at the rescue team headquarters, gold is still a precious metal that needs to be used in all aspects.

He felt like he had lost money for such a big piece of gold in exchange for such an answer.

"Then how old are you?" Wuming sighed and continued to ask.

If you don't finish asking three questions, he will feel even more disadvantaged.

Marnie thought for a moment, tilted her head and replied, "I don't know."

"..."

Wuming took a deep breath. If you don't know, you don't know.

It is true that many children, especially those in Pearl City, do not know their age. Many orphans only know how old they are after they go to school.

Wuming held Marnie's hand, and when he took a step forward, the person appeared on the busy street.

Because there are no Tianchang Foxes raging around, the Pearl City of this world is relatively peaceful, with people coming and going on the streets, and everything is peaceful.

Wu Ming took Marnie to visit several families behind the City Lord's Mansion, but he soon discovered that none of these families had anything to do with Marnie.

"Didn't you say that your home is behind the City Lord's Mansion?" Wuming took Marnie to the corner of the alley, squatted down and looked at Marnie and asked.

Marnie nodded and said, "Yeah, right behind the City Lord's Mansion."

"Approximately how far?" Wuming asked.

Marnie said seriously: "This is the third question!"

"I know." Wuming said tiredly.

Marnie thought hard and then replied: "It will take a day and a night to get there...probably."

"About? One day and one night?" Wuming looked suspicious.

Is Pearl City that big?

Wuming looked at the other side of the city, thinking that it wouldn't take a day and a night.

"Look around, are there any familiar houses? Can you recognize the City Lord's Mansion?" Wuming pointed at the surrounding buildings and asked.

Marnie looked around, then shook her head to express unfamiliarity.

At this moment, Wuming realized.

There is no doubt that Marnie's home is not in Pearl City at all!

Wuming took Marnie's hand and returned to Menghe again. He looked at Marnie and said, "Marnie, in order to be able to send you home, I have to use some abilities on you. Don't be nervous."

"Big brother is a good person, I'm not nervous." Marnie replied.

Wuming smiled, and suddenly felt that Marnie's confused character was actually quite cute.

Snap!

Wuming slapped himself in the face. What was he thinking? How could such a money-obsessed little loli be so cute?

He took a deep breath, put one hand on Marnie's head, thought for a while and decided to check Marnie's attributes first.

He had just discovered that there seemed to be an unknown force in Marnie that was blocking his detection, so now he wanted to break through this force with all his strength.

The river water covered his palms. Although the river water touched Marnie's hair, it did not stick to Marnie's hair, but gradually formed a vortex.

In a moment, Wuming saw Marnie's attributes.

However, this attribute is a mess of strange, unrecognizable symbols.

"strangeness."

Wuming murmured and immediately activated his 'character recognition' ability, and those strange symbols gradually formed words that he could understand:

【Marnie】

[Body age: 1946546548]

[Mental age: 9]

[Cute and cute: always able to avoid danger, reach some dangerous places that ordinary people cannot go to, avoid danger and seek good luck, and always go to disadvantages, but because of this, they can never learn lessons and cannot grow up. ]

[Anyway, you won’t be able to spend it all before you die, so why not share it with me: famous detectives will be attracted by cases, money fans will be attracted by wealth, and can predict the life and death of the owner of the wealth. The greater the wealth, the higher the accuracy of the prediction. The problem is that there are so

With so much money, why do you need IQ?】

[Troublesome little goblin: The longer the contact time, the less likely I am to become hostile to this child. Why do I think she is my sister? Since she is my sister, I must educate her well and make her smarter! 】

[Marnie has a small vault: Maybe money can really buy everything. This space can store unlimited money. The more money you store, the more things you can buy. Life span, luck, time, everything will become goods.

But precisely because she can buy anything, Marnie's desire for wealth will never end.】
