"Um?"

Su Ming was suddenly stunned there.

"What's wrong?"

Xu Qianqian turned her eyes and looked at Su Ming, her eyes full of questions.

"nothing."

Su Ming thought it was his own illusion, so he shook his head towards Xu Qianqian.

But then, another strange voice entered Su Ming's ears.

It was a sound that could not be heard very clearly no matter how much you listened to, like singing and like crying.

"what is this?"

Su Ming showed a stunned expression again, and even became a little stunned.

"What's the matter?"

Seeing this, Xu Qianqian couldn't help frowning.

"Don't you hear anything?"

Su Ming also frowned and looked at Xu Qianqian in surprise.

"Voice?" Xu Qianqian calmed down and listened carefully for a while before shaking her head and said, "I didn't hear any strange sounds."

Su Ming stared at Xu Qianqian for a while, and only confirmed after a while that Xu Qianqian was not lying.

But Su Ming did hear it.

"I heard someone singing and it sounded like they were crying."

Su Ming said this to Xu Qianqian.

"Sing? Cry?"

Xu Qianqian frowned more and more deeply.

Obviously, this eldest lady really didn't hear anything.

On the other hand, Su Ming not only heard it, but also heard it more and more clearly.

"Mirin—"

Suddenly, the voice became clear.

"Mirin?"

Su Ming couldn't help but murmured.

What is this sound?

Su Ming couldn't recognize it.

He only felt that this voice was inexplicably pleasant and inexplicably attractive, so he couldn't help but want to listen more, even to find the source of the voice.

Then, Su Ming turned his head and looked in one direction.

"Is it there?"

Su Ming was like a blessing to his heart, confirming the direction of the sound.

"there?"

Xu Qianqian was still a little unclear, so he followed Su Ming's line of sight and looked in that direction.

There, in fact, is the direction guarded by several two-star hunters.

Only then did Su Ming and Xu Qianqian realize that the two-star hunters were only guarding the road leading to this direction, and they ignored the other forks.

This is undoubtedly telling Su Ming and Xu Qianqian what is going in that direction.

Su Ming couldn't help but say so.

"Intuition tells me that there is something very important waiting for us to discover."

Su Ming thinks so.

"Not necessarily." Xu Qianqian said calmly: "It's also possible that the place in front of the suspected three-star leader is located."

"Then what are you going to do?" Su Ming glanced at Xu Qianqian and said, "It's impossible to sneak in easily. If you want to continue to investigate further, you must take another action."

Even if Xu Qianqian has extraordinary strength, she is only a student after all. It is impossible for her to gallop silently under the eyes of a group of two-star hunters, let alone bring Su Ming with her. together.

That's not the most important thing.

Most importantly, Su Ming could feel that there seemed to be waves of spiritual energy vibrating in front of him.

"The two 2-star warlocks seem to be in front of them, and they are using detection-type spiritual techniques alternately to scan the surroundings at regular intervals." Su Ming said: "In addition to the guards of those 2-star hunters, there are double guards both openly and secretly. , It is not so easy to continue to deceive their eyes."

Xu Qianqian naturally recognized this.

"Then what do we do next?"

Xu Qianqian gave the idea to Su Ming to think about.

Su Ming didn't hesitate.

"There are two options that come to mind."

Su Ming raised two fingers.

"One: We try to secretly capture a suspicious person who is alone and interrogate him. We should be able to obtain some information, unless the other party chooses to be a stubborn person."

"Two: One person stayed to make trouble, as an intruder to draw everyone's attention here, and the other continued to sneak in to find out."

"How do you choose?"

Su Ming instead threw the option to Xu Qianqian.

Xu Qianqian pondered for a while, and then said: "It seems that it is safer to choose the first plan, but it should be more difficult to do, right?"

"Anti-God Evil God"

"That's right." Su Ming spread his hands and said: "Since the other party is a group, it is naturally impossible to place orders casually."

Along the way, Su Ming and Xu Qianqian hardly saw anyone being singled out.

No matter whether it is standing guard or patrolling, the other party is at least two people acting together, and those one-star professionals are three people.

Su Ming had thought about making some noise first, as he did when he came in, and inviting a few people to investigate, but if the other party didn't go back for too long, his teammates would definitely become suspicious, and then there might be no particles. receive.

Therefore, choosing the first option will have a certain risk of failure.

But the second option is more dangerous.

"If you choose the second option, it means that the two of us, one may have to face the siege of nine two-star professionals and nineteen one-star professionals, and the other may have to face the suspected three-star leader. "

Su Ming explained all the risks to Xu Qianqian.

Hearing this, Xu Qianqian fell silent.

But she didn't stay silent for too long.

"The risk of the second plan is too high. We are only investigators, and there is no need to take such a big risk."

Xu Qianqian said this very rationally.

"Really?" Su Ming nodded and said, "Then you want to choose the first option?"

"Yes." Xu Qianqian asked, "Is there a problem?"

of course not.

In fact, Su Ming is also more inclined to choose the first option.

There's no reason for it, it's just safer.

It is Su Ming's kingly way.

However, for some reason, this time, Su Ming was more inclined to choose the second option.

"Is it because of that voice just now?"

Su Mingmen asked himself.

He admits that after hearing that voice, he had a desperate urge to rush in and find out.

Unfortunately, impulse is always just impulse.

If Su Ming was an impulsive person, he wouldn't have been around for so long.

So, Su Mingqiang suppressed the impulse in his heart and nodded towards Xu Qianqian.

"Then go with the first plan."

Su Ming was so sure.

"it is good."

Although Xu Qianqian noticed that Su Ming's attitude was a little different, she didn't ask, and nodded quietly.

Only then did the two retreat silently, letting the two-star hunters continue to be on guard.

......

Deep in the warehouse street, an unknown corner.

The one-star hunters of the three suspicious groups patrolled slowly here, chatting in a low voice while patrolling.

"I really don't know when I'll be able to leave this ghost place."

A man with a punk tone was irritably waving the weapon in his hand while constantly cursing, which made the two teammates beside him a little impatient.

"Are you still mentioning this?"

"Can you be a little more patient? You're not annoying, we're tired of hearing it."

The two teammates were complaining.

"Don't you want to?" The little gangster said with great dissatisfaction: "I've been hiding in this place, my whole body is getting moldy, and the task at the end of the day is to patrol, and I can't let go of any corner. Damn, there are so many containers here. , So many corners and corners, one place after another, I am so dry, I haven't smoked or drunk, I don't know how long it has been since I went to that store to wash my feet and massage."

Hearing this, the two teammates of the little gangster laughed.

"You just want to go for a foot massage, right?"

"Also, who doesn't know that your kid has a soft spot for the 18th?"

"That girl does have a bit of beauty."

"Tsk, why don't I ask her to come over next time I go."

The two laughed wildly there.

"I don't know when I'll be able to go back, so let's get a hair." The little gangster continued cursing: "This place is about to become a battlefield, and the entrance to the Spirit Demon Prison will open the day after tomorrow. If we are involved in the war, we will Is it possible to leave?"

The two teammates stopped talking for a while.

This is actually their underlying idea.

The war is about to start, Huaming District has become a military base, and even the person behind them can’t easily let people come and go freely. It’s really not that easy for unregistered “black households” like them to leave here.

Maybe, when the war starts, not only will they not be able to leave, but they will have to be involved.

At that time, they will have tasks again and their identities will not be visible. Whether it is encountering phantom demons from Spirit Demon Prison or regular professionals in the base city, it will be a big trouble.

This is the dilemma they are currently facing.

"The boss has been bothering about this for a while now."

"I really don't know if it can be solved."

"Can't the person at the top of the base city be stronger?"

"It's really useless."

Thinking of the irritability, the two teammates of the little gangster scolded.

The little gangster even said something with a fierce face.

"It would be great if a woman came to vent for me now."

With that said, the gangster raised the weapon in his hand and slashed at the grass next to him.

"Ding!"

With a small sound, the weapon that slashed at the grass was caught between two slender fingers.

"Varied!?"

The little bastard widened his eyes.

In front of him, in the grass, a figure appeared unexpectedly.

The little gangster showed a shocked look on his face, just about to step back, he shouted, and he suddenly bullied the convenience.

"Bang!"

In the muffled sound, the figure's owner released a heavy blow to the little gangster's abdomen, causing his fist to land on the little gangster's abdomen.

"Goo...!?"

The little gangster wanted to react, but it was too late. He only felt a pain in his abdomen, and he fell down.

"This...!?"

"you...!"

At this time, the two teammates of the little gangster finally reacted and were surprised.

But then, a burst of flying ash appeared around them.

"[Seven Styles Grey Bound]."

The black ash turned into a wall of restraint, surrounded them, and even blocked their noses and mouths.

"Woooooo...!"

The two could only let out a terrified whimper, then slowly fell.

The battle was over in an instant.
