"I……"

At a loss for words, the man didn't know how to explain this matter.

"I'm asking you, who are you?!"

The harder he tried, the man's face turned red.

"Crack cough."

The facial muscles trembled unceasingly, and the man let out a painful wail from his throat.

'I said……'

"Boom"

As soon as he finished speaking, he felt his neck loosen.

The whole person fell to the ground with a bang, and the air entered the nasal cavity again.

Kneeling on the ground, he gasped for breath.

"Speak quickly."

"I'm Hirano."

Wiping the drool from the corner of his mouth, Hirano stood up slowly, his eyes full of fear.

The seemingly young man in front of him actually possessed such strange power.

He had no doubt that as long as the other party wanted to, he could easily crush his own throat.

"I'm not interested in your name, I'm asking why you're here."

Hirano can't be a swordsman of the Ghost Killing Team, and he doesn't have a fire man mask on his face, so he can't be a swordsmith either.

The understanding of ghosts is so vague, and he is preparing to escape with a sun wheel knife.

The secretary had already made a guess about his identity.

"I can't tell you the specific identity, but I belong to Crown Prince Ayu."

Rubbing his throat, Hirano explained.

"You should know something about what happened in Huajie before."

"Crown Prince Ayu got the news, and there was an inside story, so he hired us to investigate."

"Coming to this village is also the news that the crown prince gave us."

Hearing this, the secretary knew that he had guessed right.

Since he is from Ah Yu's side, it's no wonder that he has such a shallow understanding of ghosts.

After the Huajie incident, the existence of the Ghost Killing Squad and ghosts has become less ambiguous.

At least, if the Emperor and the nobles are willing to pay the price, they can find something.

"It's troublesome, so those guys will also get involved."

The secretary had no doubts whether those nobles would turn against them if they knew about the existence of ghosts.

Especially the elderly family patriarchs, in order to live a few more days, they can give everything.

"The swordsmith cannot be allowed to stay here any longer."

He already had a plan in mind, and the secretary planned to discuss it with Yoya Shiki after returning home.

Not only did they want to take away the swordsmiths, but in the end even the village was burned down.

Suddenly, the secretary thought of something again.

Frowning, he asked.

"You just said, you, are there other people here?"

"They're all dead..."

Mentioning this, Hirano showed a trace of fear on his face.

"Everyone is dead except me."

Holding his head, he murmured.

"Everyone was eaten by that monster."

"Since they were all eaten, why did you carry that knife?"

"Because the crown prince said that if you can bring back valuable evidence, you can get a good reward."

Swallowing, Hirano then said.

"You can see it too, it's very dangerous here, hurry up and leave with me."

He has taken a fancy to the secretary's strength. With such a person by his side, the safety factor will undoubtedly increase a lot.

If you really encountered that monster, or an unstoppable existence, then you should just abandon the secretary.

Thinking of the number in Ayu's mouth, Hirano's heart trembled a few times in disbelief.

That was enough money for him to live comfortably for the rest of his life, and enough for him to fight for it.

"No need."

After hearing the reason, the expression on the secretary's face became even colder.

The wages of avarice is death.

The secretary is naturally very clear about the truth that has not changed since ancient times.

However, this does not mean that I will let him take away the Sun Wheel Knife.

"OK then."

Squeezing out a smile, Hirano bent down, intending to pack the package.

The secretary has already rejected him, so he has no reason to stay here anymore.

Quickly pack up the evidence and run away, leaving this horrible village alive is the business.

However, before his hand could touch the Rilun Saber, the secretary kicked him in the stomach.

"boom"

Kicking Hirano several meters away with one kick, the secretary said coldly.

"roll!"

Clutching his stomach, he struggled to get up from the ground.

While panic flashed in his eyes, a trace of anger also flashed on Hirano's face.

Although it was fleeting, it was still captured by the secretary.

"If you insist, I can send you to meet those teammates right now."

"No, I don't want it."

Shocked, Hirano shook his head vigorously.

"Then get out!"

After a scream, Hirano ran towards a place without looking back.

The secretary could have killed him, but he didn't.

But this does not mean that Hirano can leave the village alive.

One can imagine the possibility of an injured ordinary person surviving in this environment.

After packing up the package on the ground, the secretary hid it.

He still has a lot of things to deal with. The burial can only be done after the end.

On the other side, the fleeing Hirano was exhausted and out of breath.

With his hands on his knees, his chest kept rising and falling.

"Damn it, that's something I managed to cast."

Gritting his teeth, he was full of anger at the secretary's half-cutting.

"I managed to steal the knife from among the corpses, and I scratched my arm because of it!"

Kicking a stone away, Hirano looked very angry.

Just a little bit, obviously only a little bit away, he can get the wealth he dreamed of.

"Do you want to go back and follow that guy?"

His eyes were full of fierce light, and Hirano even planned to follow behind the secretary, looking for an opportunity to kill him.

Thinking about it, he regarded the secretary as an "employee" similar to himself.

Not only was he not grateful for his life, but he felt that the secretary had ruined his good deed.

"clatter"

The kicked stones made a wonderful arc in the air, and finally landed in the grass.

Hearing the sound, it seemed that something had been hit.

"Hey, there is actually another person here."

A hoarse voice sounded, and then a tall man walked out.

"Your blood smells different from ordinary people."

The tall man licked his lips with an excited smile on his face.

"No. 013 disappeared in this forest, so I'm here to search."

"I just found out that there is a village here yesterday, and I feel the battle tonight."

"Looking at you, it seems that you just ran out of it."

He raised his hand and pressed lightly on his forehead, and then opened his skull.

"Why don't you give me everything you have to 'brain food'."

Looking at the monster in front of him, Hirano showed a look of despair on his face.

In the next second, Nao Shi waved out his tentacles.
