Star Wars: The Silver Pledge

Hearing the sound of footsteps approaching rapidly, Sean slowly straightened up from the bed, ready to go to war.

Although his physical condition is far from enough to support him in a head-to-head confrontation with a group of elite soldiers, his fighting spirit is already burning.

However, before the battle, a deep voice suddenly came in: "No one can break into my house."

Sean couldn't help but startled when he heard this voice: Kratouin people? He actually came again?

The captain of the dragon hunter was also surprised by the red-skinned man who suddenly appeared in front of him. He stopped and said in a deep voice, "You are the red-faced man? We are the dragon hunters, and we are ordered to search for criminals."

"It has nothing to do with me." The Kratouin shook his head without showing any weakness, "No one can break into my house."

"Okay." The captain of the dragon hunter didn't intend to talk nonsense with this strong man in the slum, and immediately raised his gun to aim at him.

However, at this moment, a team member's voice came from not far away: "Captain, I found the target's blood!"

The captain turned his head involuntarily, and saw that his subordinate was waving a hand-held blood tester, on which the test result was displayed in a scarlet holographic image: it exactly matched the characteristics of the target!

"He should have gone that way!" The subordinate pointed to the street next door, "The blood stains are going in that direction, and there happens to be a smuggling passage connecting with Tianxuan District over there."

The captain said softly: "So, he's not here?"

The old man behind said with emotion: "The mob who came to search here earlier are really trash, they couldn't even find such obvious traces!"

The captain still stared at the Kratouin, and said: "It's not surprising, with the red-faced people present to frighten them, those wastes will definitely accomplish nothing."

After a pause, the captain continued, "However, I'm still curious as to what's in the only house on this street that hasn't been broken into."

However, at this moment, the communicator on the captain's helmet beeped softly, and after a while, he showed a surprised expression.

"The employer suddenly asked us to go back... Forget it, let's go here first today. A group of people follow the direction of the bloodstain and go to investigate temporarily. The others will go back with me to see if the employer has any extra-contract requirements. "

Soon, with the sound of orderly footsteps, the group of dragon hunters who appeared suddenly dispersed.

Sean squatted halfway beside the bed, only feeling that the change came too fast, which was unexpected, even a little unbelievable.

It is reasonable for the dragon hunters to retreat. They found new clues pointing to a new direction, and at the same time, their employer asked them to go back... However, this is too coincidental.

After experiencing this series of encounters in [Li], Xiao En doesn't really believe in coincidences.

"Bang bang bang."

At this moment, there was a knock on the door of the room. Sean was taken aback because he didn't hear anyone approach the door at all.

At such a close distance, it is really unusual for someone to be able to deceive the ears of a Jedi apprentice.

"Well, don't be afraid, it's me." The shrill voice of the Kent Yin man came from outside the door, "You should have heard the conversation just now, they won't let it go, we have to find a way."

While speaking, Kent pushed open the door—as if the lock never existed—and walked over with brisk steps. When the tiny creature walks, it wraps its feet in long braids to make its steps soundless.

As Kent approached, Sean bluntly showed a defensive attitude. He lowered his body and fixed his eyes on him.

Kent shook his head quickly: "Don't get me wrong, no one here will harm you."

Sean remained calm. It was impossible for him to trust the other party so much. Although Kent Yin did not show hostility, it was not pure kindness either.

"If I want to kill you, it's enough to tell the dragon hunters about you just now. But in fact, not only did I not inform you, I even sent someone to lure them away with a little blood."

Xiao En thought that after he came to [Li], he fought all the way, and the blood on his body might be all over the streets and alleys, so he didn't care about it, and said lightly: "Thank you."

Kent showed kindness to others, but the reason for the kindness was not sufficient, which made Sean still unable to trust each other.

Why do you want to offend the dragon hunter to help him? That doesn't make sense at all to people in the slums.

Kent said, "I heard that you blew up Tianxuan Yudong and killed many people inside, so many of us think you are a hero."

Sean almost went astray, this reason... is really hard to find fault with.

[Li]'s internal conflicts have never been a secret. People living in Tianxuan District and Tianhuang District seem to be different species, and it is even difficult for them to understand each other. To the rich and powerful, the slums were like fetid bogs. For the poor, the powerful class symbolized by Tianxuan Yudong is simply a group of greedy parasites.

Although Xiao En's actions in Tianxuan Yudong trampled on the law and affected innocent people, but for the people in the slums, they probably thought that Xiao En's trampling was not hard enough and the harm was not enough.

"Even the red-faced man admits that you are a good man." Kent Yin said, "otherwise he would not allow Huang Xuan to bring an inexplicable person into his house."

Only then did Sean say: "So, you guys knew from the beginning?"

"At least the red-faced man knew that long ago," said the Kent Yin man. "On this street, people don't necessarily care about each other, but they certainly care about their own property. And no one cares about his houses more than the red-faced man." gone."

As he spoke, Kent's braids were loosened, revealing two wide soles of his feet, which made a crackling sound when he walked.

This is an act of the greatest goodwill of the Kentein people—for these small races, the quickness and stealth of action is the key to ensuring survival, and it is also an instinct engraved in blood and bone marrow. An eye-catching act will only be done in front of someone you absolutely trust.

Sean was silent for a while, then said, "I'm Sean."

"I'm Hu Bo." Kent stretched out his broad, fluffy palm in a friendly manner, "Nice to meet you, but I suggest you find a way out early, this street is too small to protect you for too long. Then A group of dragon hunters are after you, and they will never let it go until they find you."

After speaking, Kent stared at Sean with big innocent eyes.

Sean ignored it, and just looked down at the other party with indifferent eyes.

Kent turned his head subconsciously, and didn't dare to look at Sean again. He only said with an awkward smile: "But don't be in a hurry. You can rest here for a few days to recuperate. If you need anything, let Huang Xuan Just tell me. She doesn't know that her little secret has been exposed, and she may be shocked when the time comes."
