Chapter 4 I'm such a good person!
Aaron saw several fire lights flashing not far away, and then several figures ran towards him quickly. The leader was wearing silver-white half-body armor and carrying a half-man-high one-handed shield.
However, to Aaron's surprise, the group of reinforcements actually surrounded him as soon as possible after they arrived. One or two bad-looking men had even drawn out bright weapons.
What's going on?
Looking at these buddies' eyes, it doesn't seem like they look at the hostages...
Brother, believe me, I am a great good citizen!
Aaron looked around, swept the expressions of everyone one by one, looked at the murderous eyes on their faces, and finally realized something was wrong.
The shield-holding warrior wearing silver-white half-body armor slowly took off her helmet, revealing a fascinating face, a high nose bridge, and a light red cherry lips slightly pursed.
Her fair skin seemed to be glowing against the flames and silver armor.
At this moment, Aaron saw her slightly narrow eyes looking up and down.
Aaron seemed to have never seen this female warrior in his memory, but the female warrior actually asked in a strange tone: "...is it you?"
Female warrior?
Wait, she knows me?
Aaron's heart was calmer a little, and he was a little nervous.
It's easy to have an acquaintance.
"Yes, yes, it's me." He nodded hurriedly.
Although I only know that I am a down-and-out nobleman and I don’t know who you are, since you know me, it’s easy to do it~
However, when Aaron's response, the female warrior's expression became more and more disgusted.
"Little... Miss Alice, the investigation has been completed." A middle-aged man approached and said, without deliberately lowering his voice, Aaron could hear it clearly.
"What did you find?"
"The cult ritual has just been held here, and the remaining breath is very strong. Judging from the traces of the ashes, it should be a ritual of the advent..."
Aaron clearly felt that when he heard the word "adventure ceremony", the atmosphere became much more tense, and several people couldn't help but get closer.
"However, it seems that the materials prepared for the ceremony are not complete." The middle-aged man said again at this time.
Bastard, don’t breathe heavily when you speak!
He pointed to the soulless grass lying quietly on the ground not far away. "The soulless grass should be the main material that must be prepared for all advent rituals, but this plant does not seem to be the soulless grass, but it looks like a sleepless grass dyed by humans."
"so?"
The female warrior Alice looked at Aaron coldly and looked at the intact blades of grass.
Hearing this, Aaron didn’t know whether he should be speechless or be grateful. Unexpectedly, someone else sold counterfeit and shoddy products in another world?
"So, it's not certain whether this ritual has been completed." The middle-aged man continued, "but what can be confirmed is that the dead old man should be a cult person with a strong aura."
"In other words, he is the sacrifice of this ceremony?" Alice looked at Aaron thoughtfully, "Can you know the object of your belief?"
"From the traces at the scene, it should be a human-faced rat."
"Are those damn underground mice?" Hearing this, Alice's eyes at Aaron not only did not ease at all, but became a little sharper, and the hostility in her eyes was about to emerge.

I didn't even speak, why did I look at me like that?
He tried hard to search for information about "human-faced rats" in his mind, but found nothing.
The original owner was a candid who only knew how to eat, drink and have fun, and knew nothing about these knowledge that was obviously out of daily life.
"Ed, is there any other information?"
"If we judge from this aspect alone, the advent ceremony failed because of the mismatch of the main materials, this gentleman should be innocent."
As soon as Aaron heard the word "if", he felt a sank in his heart.
"But there is a problem with the cause of the old man's death." Ed, a middle-aged man, looked at Aaron deeply and added: "The old man was scared to death, or he saw something... beyond his cognition."
"I think it would be more appropriate to ask the witnesses about this." Alice turned her head and looked at Aaron, and said coldly: "Tell me, how did he die?"
Aaron was stunned and subconsciously looked at the body of the old man lying not far away.
How do I know!
I only knew that he wanted to kill me with a stick, but inexplicably smashed it and then... died?
I said this may be done by my system. Do you believe it?
Aaron didn't know what reason to make excuses for a while, and hesitated for a long time and couldn't say what was going on.
Ed glanced at Aaron and said hesitantly: "From the information currently available, the advent ceremony is likely to cause the sacrifice itself to be confused. I think he may have temporarily lost his memory..."
Aaron interrupted Ed without hesitation, "Sir, I'm sure I have no amnesia."
"Then, sir, tell me what your name is?" Alice said.
"Aaron...Ah..."
Aaron was about to take out his last name, but was interrupted by Alice, "I just need to know your name."
"Shouldn't we know each other?" Aaron said tentatively.
Judging from the performance of this female warrior just now, they should know each other.
Since I know him, how could I not know his name?
Aaron vaguely felt an ominous premonition.
"Yes, of course I know each other. A few days ago, a gentleman drank several bottles of 'flame red lips' in one breath. Can you guess what he did?"
Aaron was speechless, but in fact he really didn't know what he had done after getting drunk that day.
Alice looked at Aaron's appearance and said with a smile: "That bold man tried to tease me, to tease the Kite of the Kingdom of Agrant..." She realized something and stopped talking.
Although she had a smile, the murderous intent in her eyes was particularly clear.
At this time, a few light coughs came from the side.
A middle-aged man in his forties or fifties walked out of the crowd with his belly, looked at Alice and Aaron, and said, "Miss Alice, since we can confirm that he is not a cultist, then are we
"Don't worry, Captain Colin, the real noble will not be overwhelmed by anger, but he is a sacrifice for the advent ritual. We need to ask the astrologer to divine."
"Of course there is no problem." Captain Colin said with a smile, touching his round belly.
Alice looked at Aaron again, "Also, Lord Colin, although I only came to Leiden City temporarily, there will be monsters like the Earth Demon Spider in the sewer of Leiden City. I will inform the Lord of the City truthfully."
Colin wiped his sweat that did not exist and said with a wry smile: "That was indeed my mistake. I should report it truthfully. I will explain the situation to the city lord."
Alice snorted coldly, turned around and left directly with Ed.
Aaron was also very aware of the times and allowed the guards to tie him a rope.
"Where are we going?"
Colin looked at Aaron with a smile and said, "Of course I'm going to prison, sir."
