As night fell, the city of Saint-Labona finally turned from the bustling, prosperous and noisy scene during the day to silence and silence.
After Xu hour, except for the sparse lights in residents' houses, the occasional barking of dogs, the playing and crying of urchins, and the occasional shouting from some citizens, there were few pedestrians walking on the streets.
Of course, there are no monsters in the city now, and the storm at the city gate two days ago has been proven to be just a false alarm. The city guard and the newly established 'Giant Sword' Judgment Knights of the church have already jointly issued an official document.
It shows that no trace of monsters has been found in the city for the time being, and there is no need to impose a curfew. It also calls on people not to spread rumors, believe them, or spread rumors. However, people who have experienced a monster crisis still spontaneously choose not to go out at night easily.
.
Especially in this era, there are no entertainment activities at night, and there is no need to go out at night, so people are even less willing to make fun of their own lives.
It's just that the citizens of Labona cherish their lives and are unwilling to go out at night, but that doesn't mean that some people with ulterior motives outside are also unwilling!
Isn’t this?
When night fell, when the streets in the outer city of Labona had become deserted, and when people began to turn off their lights one after another and prepare to go to sleep, two sneaky black figures groped their way to the towering section of the inner city.
The cat fell down from the base of the city wall.
"Shh!"
"Nina, please be gentle."
"The people around here are just turning off their lights and sleeping, not dead. You must not disturb them, otherwise there will be another trouble!"
"I understand."
"It's you, Rachel!"
"Are you really sure that you can successfully sneak in here without being discovered?"
"Of course!"
"Let me tell you, I have been observing this place from a distance for two consecutive days. Every night, there will be fewer soldiers patrolling this section of the city wall."
"Maybe it's because they think the city wall here is the highest?"
"Anyway, the situation is: it will take a long time for one or two guards to patrol here, and the interval between them is still the longest?"
"look!"
"They are coming..."
"careful!"
Just like that, the two cats were sneaking around under the city wall. The two guys who called themselves "Nina" and "Rachel" in whispers talked for a while and saw the towering city wall.
After passing two city guard soldiers holding torches high, they all quickly fell silent and hid in the shadows of the night. They did not stand up again until the two patrolling soldiers were gone.
"look!"
"They're gone."
"Now that there is no one up there, this is a perfect opportunity for us to sneak into the city and investigate!"
"It's still early before dawn, we should have enough time."
"That……"
"Shall we go up directly?"
"That's for sure!"
"Be careful. It seems to be an aristocratic area inside. The population density is not like that at the city gate. No one should find us."
"But be careful. Ordinary soldiers don't have to worry, but it can be troublesome when you encounter those female knights in golden armor. After all, they are capable of killing monsters just like us!"
"I see."
"Let's go..."
soon!
After the discussion, after seeing that the two soldiers patrolling the city wall had gone away and making sure that there was no one around, the two sneaky guys in black robes, who could tell from the sound that they were women, jumped with amazing jumping ability
He jumped directly into the air and jumped high into the air. Then he used the city wall with a tilt angle of more than ten degrees as a boost to get a little higher up again, and then quickly climbed over the city wall easily.
Immediately afterwards, without waiting to be discovered, they jumped forward again, successfully climbed over the wall and came to a dark and deserted alley in the inner city.
"..."
"..."
However, when the two of them successfully jumped off the city wall and arrived at the inner city, before they started taking action, what they didn't expect was that they had just climbed down the city wall and found themselves in an unknown alleyway inside.
, he was immediately bumped into by a little girl standing at the entrance of the alleyway, holding a doll in her hand?
Although they didn't know why there was a little kid who didn't go to bed at this time and was wandering alone on the dark street, but the three people who were a little at a loss and looked at each other naturally just did that.
In the darkness, you look at me, and I look at you with our eyes facing each other.
"Hello!"
"Rachel..."
"Did not you say……"
"According to your observation, at this time of night, there are generally no people active in this aristocratic area?"
"hateful!"
"I did!"
"But who would have thought that there would be such a little girl who ran out without sleeping. She has no demonic aura about her. Who would have noticed..."
"That……"
"What are we going to do?"
"She seems to have seen us!"
"Bitter!"
"It doesn't seem like it, but I definitely saw it. She's not blind!"
"All right……"
"Then why don't you just tell us what we should do now?"
"have no idea……"
Then, after the two exchanged a few words in a low voice and briefly, they stopped, and then continued to stare at the little girl at the entrance of the alley without saying a word, while they began to think of ways in their minds.
"Ha ha!"
But soon, after a while, the woman named Rachel felt relieved and laughed strangely in a lowered voice.
"Let's go Nina!"
"Don't worry about her, she's just a child anyway."
"What could she know?"
As she said that, the woman tightened the black hood on her head first, and after making sure that the little girl could not see her face clearly, she patted her companion on the shoulder hard, and then prepared to pull her companion and leave the scene quickly.
.
As for the little girl who witnessed them climbing down from the city wall, she didn't take it seriously at all.
After all, she was just a little girl. She looked about six or seven years old. She was at the age where she only knew how to play. Even if she saw them, she would just look at them curiously and might forget about them later. She should
It won't cause any trouble for their next actions.
"makes sense!"
"Let's go..."
Nodding, Nina seemed to agree with Rachel's idea, so she was about to step forward and go out from the side of the little girl standing at the entrance of the alley.
"Pooh!"
ε=(ˇεˇ)))!!
"I'm not an ordinary kid."
(｀^)
However, to their surprise, the two of them had just taken two steps when they were frightened by the little girl's squealing voice.
And who is that bad little girl if she's not Anne Bennie?
"What people saw just now, you guys climbed down from the city wall, you must be the kind of bad guys that adults often say, right?
(ψ｀▽′)o
"So, are you going to call me?
(˙o˙)
With that said, Annie, who pretended to be just an ordinary little girl, opened her mouth to shout.
After all, she was bored at night, and now it was better. When she was about to go back, she met two guys who seemed to be very interesting. If she didn't tease them hard, it would be...
I'm so sorry for her reputation as Queen Anne.
(…)
(●￣￣●)
"!!
"etc!"
"don't want!"
"Please do not!
Seeing this, the two people panicked decisively, and then wanted to step forward and stop him.
"stop!
|▽)
"Come here again, people will really scream!
(òó)
Fortunately, of course, a certain troubled little girl did not actually shout. Instead, she used this as a threat and shouted to stop the two of them, making them stand in the dark alley under the city wall without daring.
Act rashly again.
"..."
"..."
Seeing that there seemed to be room for improvement, the two people naturally stopped helplessly and looked at each other dumbfounded.
"Little sister."
"We're really not bad people!
"We just want to go home, really."
"Because it's closer here?"
Then, the one named Rachel didn't even think about it, she just opened her mouth and spoke out in a clumsy way.
"go home?"
()
"I know many people around here, so tell me where you live, which street this belongs to, and what's your house number?"
(゜-゜)
Of course, Anne couldn't be bothered by such a small question, so she asked straight to the point, pretending to use it to identify the other party.
"this……"
"us……"
Hearing this, the two people looked at each other awkwardly, and then began to squirm. For a long time, they couldn't explain what was going on.
After all, they had never been to Rapona before, and this time they were just ordered to investigate certain situations. How could they know what the other party asked?
"Can't you answer that?"
(ψ｀▽′)o
"You sneaked in over the wall, and you actually dared to lie to others that you were not bad people?"
(*˙︶˙*)☆*°
"really!"
()
"Is it better to call someone directly?"
()
Seeing that the two people were struggling for a long time and couldn't think of a word, Anne became a little impatient, and then she spoke out again and threatened.
"etc!"
"We are really not bad people!"
"real!"
Seeing this, the two people became anxious again and hurriedly shouted to stop. However, they could not explain the reason and could only act anxiously.
"No bad person would say he is a bad person!"
(′ o′)
"If you can't give me a reason, people won't believe you."
~(￣▽￣~)
Anne continued to tease the other person, and at the same time tried her best to pretend to be an ordinary, smart, well-behaved and cute girl.
Of course, Queen Anne is a smart, well-behaved and lovely girl, so there is definitely no need to pretend to do that kind of thing.
(…)
(lll￢￢)
"That……"
"What do you have to do to believe that we are not bad people?"
Those two people were at a loss.
Although, they are confident that they can instantly subdue the opponent and tie them up or knock them unconscious, but due to a certain iron rule, they dare not hurt ordinary people, let alone hurt a little girl. In addition to continuing to follow
There seems to be no good solution except for Anne to break it off?
"You guys are so weird!"
╮(￣▽￣)╭
"Isn't it your job to find evidence to convince others? Why are you asking the other way around now?"
()
Anne was a little confused about this and asked in a serious tone.
"..."
"..."
In this regard, Rachel and Nina couldn't help but look at each other again, and for the first time they felt that what the terrible little girl in front of them said seemed to make sense?
"All right!"
"We're really not bad people!"
"on the contrary!"
"We actually came in secretly to investigate the demon!"
Finally, the one named Nina thought about it, and then quietly pulled her companion who became a little impatient, then stepped forward with a smile and whispered to Anne in a pleasant voice.
"correct!"
"You should know what a demon is, right?"
She was not sure whether Anne could understand, so she thought for a while before continuing to ask patiently.
"Of course I know!"
(^o^)
"It has appeared in the city before, and I heard that it ate a lot of people in the cathedral!"
(ω‖)
"At that time, people wanted to go out to play at night, but those fierce city guard uncles wouldn't let them!"
ヾ(^▽^*)))
Anne pretended to be suddenly talking, and without thinking, she told some of the situations she and Elena encountered when they came here.
"That's right!"
"That's the kind of man-eating monster!"
"actually…"
"We are the warriors of the organization, that is, the kind of big sword you talk about, the kind of 'silver-eyed witch', have you heard of it!?"
Nina continued to explain and coax helplessly and carefully.
After all, there is nothing they can do about it. It is actually easy for them to get out. Even if the other party is blocking the alley, they have 10,000 ways to forcefully leave. However, once the other party calls for help, their actions tonight will be difficult.
Drifted.
The mission assigned to them by the organization has been delayed for three full days. If they sneak in tonight and are discovered and have to flee in despair, then this mission may end in failure.
"Big sword?"
(°°)
"Um……"
(`)
"Then you take off your hats and let others see?"
(_)┘
Although Annie had already recognized the other person's identity at a glance, she originally wanted to tease him, so she naturally asked this deliberately.
(…)
(●￣￣●)
"..."
"..."
There was no other way. Rachel and Nina in the dark alley looked at each other again, and then reluctantly took off the camouflage hoods on their heads, revealing their iconic blond hair and silver eyes.
'Big Sword' appearance.
"alright!"
"Did you see it now?"
"We are really soldiers of the organization, and we are really here to help you investigate the devil."
"but……"
"In order not to alert others, and because of your city's stupid regulations, we had no choice but to sneak in like this."
Sighing, Nina revealed her true face and said in exhaustion and frustration.
They are not very good at dealing with ordinary people, and they are even less good at dealing with an ordinary little girl who is very messy. That seems to be more troublesome than asking them to fight a group of monsters?
"Alas!"
!(;o)o
"It turns out you are really that kind of big sword..."
(°з°)-
After seeing the blond hair and silver eyes of the other party, Anne pretended to be surprised and exclaimed, and tried her best to make her face look full of surprise and curiosity.
"Okay! Okay!"
"Immortal"
"Get out of the way, we're going to work."
Finally, the short-haired Rachel walked forward and waved her hand impatiently, signaling Annie to stay where she was and not to delay them any longer.
"Kid?"
(_)
"You are the brat, and I won't let you go!"
(ˇεˇ)
Originally, Annie wanted to get out of the way, but when the other party said that, of course she changed her mind again, and then deliberately stretched out her hands to block the exit of the dark alleyway, which was not very spacious.
"!!"
"you……"
Seeing this, the short-haired Rachel was of course a little angry.
Then, just as she was about to use force, she suddenly changed her mind, and suddenly released part of her demonic power, making her face become ferocious, twisted and ugly, and her eyes became glowing with golden light.
After his eyes were straightened, he threatened fiercely:
"Kid!"
"Get out of here!"
"If you dare to yell and scream, be careful and I will deal with you!"
While speaking, Rachel did not hide the ferocious fangs in her mouth due to the release of the demonic power, and tried hard to pretend to be a demon who wanted to eat people.
"ah!"
!!!∑(Дノ)ノ
"..."
(ó﹏ò)
Seeing the other party acting like that, she had no choice but to cooperate, pretending to be scared and frightened, and quickly hid aside.
"Bitter!"
"Did you see that?"
"Nina, you can't be too polite when dealing with a brat like this!"
"Let's go!"
After saying that, seeing that Anne was frightened by herself, Rachel first glared at her companion proudly, and then glared triumphantly at little Anne hiding in the corner.
Walked out proudly.
"You..."
"Release evil spirit randomly, but don't be discovered!"
Although she felt that her companion's approach seemed inappropriate, Nina saw that the problem was solved and that little Annie seemed to be frightened and did not make things difficult for them again, so she didn't say anything more.
However……
Just when they thought the problem had been solved, when they put on their hoods again and pointed in a certain direction, they planned to lurk along the street and start investigating...
"Someone come quickly!"
(;｀O)o
"Two bad monsters who scare children came over the wall!"
ヾ(￣0￣；)ノ
Next second!
What happened made Rachel and Nina almost stumble to the ground with their two big swords:
A certain troubled little girl actually opened her throat and screamed behind them, after they had spent a long time explaining everything and thought everything had been solved, and the voice was extremely harsh?
"!!"
"Who's over there?"
"Is there a demon?"
"quick!"
"Gather! Gather!!"
Dang! Dang! Dang!!
Ever since, as bursts of noises and footsteps sounded in the distance, and as the urgent alarm bell sounded throughout the street and even the entire city, a large group of city guards came from all directions to where the alarm was issued.
Gathered over.
At the same time, people on the city wall lit more torches or lanterns and ran towards this side quickly. There was even the sound of pulling a bowstring?
"Over here!"
(灬)
"They are two big bad guys!"
(∩^o^)☆*
At this time, a certain troubled little girl was still running away, while still shouting loudly for fear of causing chaos in the world.
"!!"
"hateful!"
"Let's retreat first!"
"Kit, just wait for me!"
Seeing that there was nothing that could be done, Rachel, the short-haired swordsman, first turned around and glared at a certain troubled little girl, and then had to regretfully and her companions, from that unguarded section of the road.
The city wall was overturned.
"Just wait!"
o(*｀ー)o
"You deserve it. Who asked you to come to kill others?"
(˙︶˙)
Seeing the other party running away in embarrassment, Anne certainly did not take the other party's threat to heart, but instead shouted loudly at the two black figures who jumped up the city wall.
"..."
()hey-hey!
"Let's go! Tibbs, let's go home and sleep!"
(｀)
Then, sensing that the other party had jumped out and fled quickly away from Lapona City, Annie clapped her hands with satisfaction, and then hummed a song, not waiting for some noisy guys to arrive.
He quickly flashed and walked away.
After all, she had just teased two interesting young ladies and was in a very good mood, so it was time to go back and have a good sleep.
