Section 029 Waiting late at night

"Isn't this the recent bandit incident in Haixing Town?" Mo Li said strangely.

"Yes. This matter should have been the government's business. Unexpectedly, the government would release a task in the Mercenary Guild, with such a generous reward. It seems that this matter is not as simple as it seems. Miller said thoughtfully, "Thinking about it, we'd better not wading in this muddy water. Brother Mo Li, I think we'd better take on a more ordinary task.

"Brother... the more strange the task is, the more challenging it is. Look at those E-level tasks, either sending letters or looking for lost objects. Do you think such tasks are interesting?" Miffy said dissatisfiedly.

Mo Li listened to Miffy's words and looked at it carefully. As she said, those acceptable tasks of the E-class mercenary regiment were really not worth mentioning.

"Feifei, we have just stepped into the mercenary world for a few days, and I'm afraid it's not good to accept such a task at the beginning. It's not too late when we really understand the world.

"But if you really do this, does our original purpose still make sense?"

"Brother Miller, I think Miffy is right. Since we are mercenaries to train our practical experience, this task just meets our needs. Let's try it next." Mo Li said with a smile. In fact, when he entered Haixing Town, he was already curious when he heard two people talking about this matter, so he was quite interested in this task.

"That's right, brother, let's try it. If it really doesn't work, we can give up directly and take on ordinary tasks at that time." Miffy took the opportunity to say. His eyes glanced at Mo Li intentionally or unintentionally. I didn't expect this local steamed bun to have its own time. Since she saw Mo Li, she felt that this guy was stupid, and he knew nothing about the world. Miffy decided that he must be a steamed bun from the mountains. If it hadn't been for his amazing magical ability, with Miffy's personality, she wouldn't have let this guy be with him.

"Alas." Miller sighed slightly and said, "Since you are all interested in this task, let's go ahead. But one thing you have to promise me is that if there is really nothing we can do, you can't force it.

"Of course, I don't think Miss Miffy is that kind of impulsive person." Mo Li said with a smile.

"That's it." This time, Mo Li's words were in Miffy's heart. He gave Mo Li a bright smile, and then turned to Miller and smiled, "Brother, don't worry, you know my character. If it really doesn't work, I will definitely advance and retreat with everyone."

"This is the best." Miffy took a look at Miffy and then turned to the counter on the left. Let's go and pick up the mission.

"Mercenary Regiment Level E, Task Number T203." Walking to the counter, Miller took out his token and handed it to the girl in charge of the level at the counter.

The girl recorded the result token on a piece of parchment, then returned the token to Miller, then pulled out a light green parchment from under the counter and handed it to Miller and said, "This is the information provided by the launcher of this mission, which may give you some help. There is no time limit for the task, as long as it has not been cancelled. I wish you can complete the task as soon as possible.

"Thank you." Miller took the parchment and turned to Mo Li and said, "Let's go back to the inn and study it carefully."

"Good. Let's go.

In the largest inn in Haixing Town, Mo Li and the three of them are sitting in one of the luxurious rooms. It's late at this time. Several stars hung sparsely in the sky, glowing lonely. The whole town has fallen asleep, and there is no noise during the day. Quiet is a little strange.

"Last month, one-third of the rich merchants and nobles in the town were stolen. It happened almost the same night. The robbers stole not some rare treasures and gold and silver jewelry, but the grain in the granary. A large amount of grain almost disappeared overnight. A month later, no trace was found, and there was no trace of transportation at the scene of theft. The most important thing is that the robbers did not take away a vessel for grain. Miller said inconceribly, "It seems that this matter is not ordinary."

Mo Li put down the parchment in his hand and said, "It seems that they must have prepared in advance, and there are no fewer people, but why don't you take valuable gold, silver and other things directly and have to take so much effort to steal food?"

"This is also something that puzzles me." Miller shook his head and said, "Now it seems that the strength of the three of us can't deal with it for a while. Why don't we just give up?"

"Is it a little bit..." As for something, Mo Li didn't say anything, but looked at Miller.

"I know what you mean...but..."

"Brother, do you think it's something that Warcraft did? Didn't those grains have been removed, but died and eaten directly by it? Miffy interrupted Miller and suddenly said.

"You haven't dreamed that what kind of warcraft can unconsciously sneak into a nobleman's house and eat so much food overnight?" Miller knocked on his sister's head and said angrily.

"Did I say it was a warcraft? If it's a pile, it's not a rare thing to eat several families' food overnight.

"Unless it's a mouse, there will be no warcraft... mouse!" Mo Li suddenly jumped up and said incredulously.

"Yes, why didn't I think of it? Maybe it's really a mouse." Miffy also stood up. Think about it, even if many bandits act together and do not use the original utensils, they definitely need to reload the grain, which will inevitably take a lot of effort. Which bandits will be stupid enough to do this?

"Maybe this is their way of concealing people's eyes."

"In order to cover up people's ears and eyes, if you were the head of the bandit, would you do this?"

"I..." Miller really couldn't answer this question for a moment. As Miffy said, it's not worth it just to hide people's eyes and ears.

"Don't argue with us either. According to the introduction, for two months, those robbers have visited those granaries almost every once in a while. I think we'd better investigate it at night. Maybe it's not necessarily Warcraft as Miss Miffy said. Mo Li sat down and said, "Since we have completed this task, it's really a pity not to do an investigation. Miller, what do you think?

"Okay. Then the two of us will investigate tonight." Miller said helplessly, "I knew that you two would not give up easily after taking this task."

"I'm going too!" Miffy sat down and pouted.

Miller stared at Miffy and said sternly, "Don't join in this fun. You'd better stay here and wait for our news."

"I don't!"

"Miss Miffy, your brother is right. We can't be sure who did this matter now. If there are really a large number of bandits, there may be some danger. You'd better stay here." Mo Li said for Miller.

"If it's really dangerous, why do you still want to go?" Miffy said unconvincedly, "Besides, I have broken through the realm of magicians. I can take good care of myself and will never become a burden to you. Besides, if the situation is wrong, I will leave as soon as possible.

Mo Li and Miller looked at each other and said with one voice, "No!"

"Why!" Miffy asked loudly.

"You don't have to ask so much. Just wait here." After saying that, Miller looked at Mo Li and walked out of the room together.

"Hey!" Miffy shouted and chased after him.

"Yes, if you sneak away, I will send you home tomorrow. I will definitely do what I say!" When Miller was about to walk out of the room, he turned around and said harshly.

Looking at the two people who left, Miffy sat angrily on the stool and kept hitting the table with her hands, as if the poor table had a grudge against her.

The starfish town at night is shrouded in darkness. It's late at night, and the lights have long been extinguished, and only a few stars in the sky are still stubbornly shining. The surroundings were quiet and there was no sound, only the night wind "whispered" across the street, leaving a slight sound. At this time, there were two black shadows lying on the roof of a house, motionless, like a sculpture. Time is slowly passing, and Qixing has appeared. A few bright lights sprinkled down through the clouds, indicating that the sky was about to be bright.

"Miller, it seems that there will be no clue tonight." The two black shadows on the roof are Mo Li and Miller. They have been out for a long time, but after so long, they have never found any movement.

It seems that they will not do anything today. Let's go back, or Feifei will definitely worry about us. Miller stood up as he spoke. Slap your legs with your hands.

"Okay. It seems that this task is not so easy to complete. We have to..." Mo Li suddenly stopped here and listened carefully. Miller! Did you hear any strange sounds?"

"Strange sound? No, it's very quiet around.

"Don't talk. Listen carefully. It's like the sound of something running on the ground." Mo Li whispered, and his body was attached to the roof again.

"You, don't be suspicious, where is the sound...ah!" Speaking of this, Miller couldn't help exclaiming and quickly covered his mouth.

"What's wrong?" Mo Li asked doubtfully.

"Look...what is that?" Miller pulled up Mo Li and pointed to the street not far away and said in surprise.
