The Devil’s Cage Chapter 13: Assassination
After a morning, the market after noon finally became a little quiet.
Of course, such a quiet, that is, compared to morning and noon, in fact, the market is still endless, and the crowd is surging.
The merchants who entered the city that day and couldn’t keep up with the best selling time of the day appeared at the market this time, looking for the right market while looking for a suitable stall.
The Kieran and Mimosa who have changed their clothes are among these people.
Kieran smiled and stopped to ask for a sentence or two in front of a booth from time to time, while Mimosa followed behind Kieran step by step, as if it were a qualified small follower.
The two stopped and walked around. After half an hour, they came to a stall selling jewelry.
On an off-white 1 meter square cloth, there are a few rings, bracelets, earrings and necklaces scattered around, mostly made of copper and iron.
You don’t expect to see gold and silver jewelry at such a booth.
To find these, you need to go to the shop, not the roadside stall.
Of course, this is not the main purpose of Kieran.
It's the hotel behind the stall.
On the window on the corner of the second floor of the hotel, a red strip of cloth is waving in the wind, making it stand out.
After glancing at the red cloth strip, Kieran picked up a ring.
"How much is this?"
Kieran asked.
"Eight copper coins."
The stall owner glanced at the offer.
Not expensive, but not cheap.
Just stop and go at the market, although most of them are doing things, but it is enough to let Kieran understand the corresponding pricelessness.
In other similar stalls, the copper rings like his are at most six or seven copper coins.
"Too expensive!"
"Five copper coins!"
"Impossible!"
"At least nine copper coins!"
"Nine copper coins I can buy two such copper rings!"
Kieran shook his head, just like an authentic businessman, began bargaining with the stall owner.
Mimosa stood behind, looking at this pair of Kieran, with incredible eyes.
The scene in front of me is completely beyond the imagination of Mimosa.
As a member of Kieran, Mimosa naturally knows why they are here.
In fact, after signing a contract to keep secrets, Mimosa already knows about Kieran's guess.
And for this guess, Mimosa did not refute.
Because, he can also see that the four people Melzer and Pyrker are the two "smoke bombs" that have actually stolen the "Thorns Holy Grail" people.
When failed, the four are the best candidate after the break.
When successful, the four are clearing the suspected rational evidence.
According to his guess, the two people who stole ‘Thorns Holy Grail’ will definitely put ‘Thorns Holy Grail’ into the marked hotel, and then notify the city guards and Thorn Temple to complete the expected planting framing.
Naturally, Kieran will never give up the "Thorns Holy Grail" that can complete the "baptism", and will definitely shoot.
In this way, fighting with City Guards and Thorn Temple is inevitable.
So, when I came to the market, Mimosa was quite nervous.
Just looking at the pair of Kieran and an ordinary booth owner, Mimosa can't help but wonder if his guess is correct, or is there a hallucination in the previous conversation with Kieran?
However, soon, a shadow attracted the attention of Mimosa.
The dark shadow looming in the shadows, approaching the hotel with red cloth strips at a very fast speed.
Subconsciously, Mimosa will remind Kieran.
But before waiting for the opening of Mimosa, Kieran threw it to the stall owner ten copper coins again, and stood up with two copper rings.
"Let’s look at that one!"
Kieran said, and went to another stall.
Mimosa wanted to say something, but he didn’t dare to say it. He could only weakly follow Kieran and then came to a fur-selling stall.
This is a stall set up by hunters near Naviya City.
It is covered with nitrified and dried rabbit skin, mostly gray and bright.
"Ten pieces of copper coins in one piece of leather, don't make a price!"
The hunter apparently noticed Kieran before, and said it first without waiting for Kieran to speak.
Kieran touched the tip of his nose bitterly, and walked directly to the next house, Mimosa quickly followed.
However, Mimosa couldn't help but looked back in the direction of the hotel.
Mimosa froze when he saw the situation in the hidden alley.
Because the black shadow he saw before was blocked in the alleyway in front of the hotel by three people who did not know when.
Due to the angle, Mimosa did not see the appearance of the three men, but he could clearly see that the three men were armed.
Moreover, the shadow that appeared first has been injured!
"There are others?"
If something unexpected happens, let Mimosa take a step, but the force from the arm can let Mimosa continue to move forward.
"Don’t look back and follow me."
The sound of Kieran coming from my ear immediately made Mimosa react.
And just after the two left about 100 meters away
Boom!
A loud explosion sound appeared.
The fire is rising.
Within a radius of seven or eight meters, it was razed to the ground.
Even with the hotel, it collapsed in half.
The noisy bazaar from the last moment will become crying and crying from the next moment.
The chaotic crowd runs left and right.
Even if the City Guards who had received the news quickly arrived, they would not be of any use.
The number of people is too far apart.
There are thousands of people in the whole market, and the two city guards are only about 50 people. Even with the city guards stationed in the market, there are only 100 people.
In the face of the impact of more than ten times the number of people, the queue of City Guards was washed away at once.
"Collection! Collection!"
The leader of the city guard shouted loudly.
But this voice was immediately overwhelmed by the chaotic crowd.
Then, the angrily captain pulled out the Longsword in the waist and began to intimidate the panicked crowd, but instead of playing a small role, it made the crowd even more chaotic.
Mimosa Kieran shook his head.
If you do this from the beginning, you can still rely on the sharpness of the sword to scare the crowd, but now?
It's totally chaotic!
The chaos continued for a few more minutes, and then a middle-aged man in a robe and embroidered with thorns in his cuffs appeared with a loud singing of hymns.
"The road covered with thorns is your test."
"Painful body. Brings noble soul."
"When you show up~IndoMTL.com~ everything..."
The hymn seems to have the power to calm people's hearts. The chaotic crowd quickly calms down. If it continues, this chaos will definitely calm down quickly.
But...
Oh!
A crossbow arrow shot out of the crowd, and even fell into the chest of the Godhood staff who sang the hymn.
Immediately, the crowd that has just calmed down again.
People are more scared and overwhelmed than before.
Also overwhelmed is Mimosa.
"This, what exactly is what happened?"
Mimosa looked at the Godhood personnel falling in the pool of blood, and the whole person was stupid.
And when he came back to God, he realized that somehow, the Kieran around him was gone.
