Chapter 8 A piece of paper

A group of soldiers had just realized what had happened and quickly stepped forward, preparing to protect Mi Xin in the center, but as soon as their feet moved, several source crows suddenly fell from the sky, exploded in front of them, and lifted them back.

"Did I tell you can move?" The crow squinted his eyes and smiled softly, "A idiot who has been replaced has appeared. Now we are leaning forward together. Is it a pity that the one just failed. Do you want to try again while the chaos is in trouble? Ha, since that's the case, let's go with him together."

Swish, dozens of thick and long vines emerged from the ground in the dirt roadbed around the cement ground, and quickly extended to the soldiers around them like snakes. The old man surnamed Ma was the first to discover the vines. He frowned slightly, raised his foot and stepped down hard on the ground.

There was no sound, but it was clearly a hard cement floor, but it gave people the feeling of the water shaking. Several soldiers were unable to stand firmly and fell to the ground uncontrollably. The extended vines shook like electric shock and retracted from the ground like lightning.

"Ha." The crow and Rose smiled at the same time. The crow's smile was meaningful. Rose smiled with a cold and mocking smile. The parasol pointed at the old man surnamed Ma, "I received the provocation. This is a declaration of war against the Blood Alley. Then, I accept your declaration of war."

"Wait, not." Mi Xin pulled the hand of the old man named Ma, shook his head at him, stepped forward and bowed solemnly to Rose, "Teacher Ma can't bear to see the soldiers who protected me suffer heavy casualties. In desperation, I'm sorry. We came today and have submitted a note to the autonomous government, but because we rushed too quickly, we may arrive earlier than the note. If this is true, please let me say sorry. My purpose for this trip is to negotiate a business with your neighbor Mr. Crow, which will not affect you."

"Ha, there are mice everywhere, and it doesn't matter." When he reached out to beat the smiling man, Rose could only snorted coldly, "Whatever you guys, leave quickly after the talks. The Blood Alley doesn't allow so many people to poke their heads around."

"Thank you." Mi Xin bowed again, and when she turned to the crow, she had already returned to her usual gentle smile. "I have received Mr. Crow's gift, so what is your answer?"

"I have already paid back the debt, so it's time to talk about the serious business." The crow's eyes took back from the old man, "Ha, don't you think the content I just summarized is ridiculous?"

"Don't feel it."

"But I think." The crow's eyes narrowed into a line, "Explain a question to me, ha, why the military appears, I can ignore it, and will ask them to send internal guards. In the eyes of the military, you are obviously very important. It is nothing more than helping them resell supplies and technologies, or are helping them resell. Even this business may be related to them, and I don't care about these."

"The Mi family has a long-term cooperative relationship with the military, and I insist on coming. Unless they turn against each other, they have no way to stop them, so they have to send someone to protect them." Mi Xin smiled apologetically at the soldiers beside her, "It's just that Wang Shaoxiang and all the brothers are working hard."

"I said I don't care. No matter what the reason is, I care about another problem." The crow waved his hand and interrupted Mi Xin's explanation. "Old Huang is right. I am indeed very prosperous in the local black field, but I still have such things as self-knowledge. Maybe I am quite famous in the local world, but in the seven realms, no matter the source energy capital, there are at least ten assassins with stronger strength and richer experience than me. No matter which one of them is, it is safer than me, but you chose me. Haha, it is not the style that a big family should have. This makes me doubt your purpose."

"Indeed, starting from the first assassin, Mr. Gopher, I have listed at least twelve candidates. Mr. Crow can only be ranked thirteenth, but I still chose you." The gentle smile on Mi Xin's face disappeared, and the momentum of the superior gradually showed, "Because although their experience and strength are above you,... they are not fraudsters."

"Um?"

"I didn't agree with you just now." Mi Xin said in a deep voice, "I have never said that I just wanted you to be my bodyguard. I mean, I want to hire you for a while until the negotiation is over."

"continue."

"Protecting me from being assassinated is one aspect, but if the fundamental purpose is not achieved, this adventure will be meaningless, so I hope to achieve my goal." Mi Xin said seriously, "This requires the help of Mr. Crow, the fraudster."

“What is the purpose?”

"Sorry, I can't disclose it until you promise."

"I think so." The crow nodded slightly, "I guess you have prepared enough tempting rewards to get me to agree. Anyway, if you succeed, this reward will be worth the ticket price. If you fail, I will have no shame or be desperate to ask for the reward, and you will not suffer any loss."

"Of course." Mi Xin smiled with satisfaction, "So did you agree?"

"I refuse."

“Huh?”

"Because your reason sounds pretty, and it not only praises me and explains my questions, which is a very standard answer. However, there is never a standard answer in the real world. The answer is too standard, but it seems too deliberate. Do you know what I smelled from your answer? I smelled a strong conspiracy smell." The crow said with a smile, "And, I have guessed that you would answer like this. Unfortunately, your answer doesn't work at all. They are not fraud masters? Then just find another fraud master. I am not the only one who plays conspiracy in the world. For such an important thing, you must let one person do two people's work in order to save money. So I don't believe a word of your explanation."

"Oh, what I said is true, but I just concealed one of the important reasons." Mi Xin sighed lightly, took out the pen that had been prepared, lowered her head and said while writing, "I have concealed something, in fact, to avoid misunderstandings from you and make everyone embarrassed. Why do you have to ask the bottom of it?"

"I have always been honest and trustworthy and never lie, and naturally I don't like others to lie to me. Besides, it's this kind of lie that may be deadly at any time. Although the energy-controllers in the Seven Realms City are willing to make money, they do not have the hobby of jumping into the pit on purpose."

"It's not a pit, but you don't believe it." Mi Xin finally finished writing. She put away her pen and shook her head with a wry smile. "The final reason I came to find you is that the person I need to help me is reliable enough, and this is the most priority."

"I'm reliable enough?" The crow pointed at his nose and almost laughed out loud.

"A kind and respectable elder commented on you to me not long ago. He said that although your past is likely not clean, the money comes from the right way, and he acts, ah, there is one thing that you are actually a person who values ​​affection and is grateful for your kindness." Mi Xin handed the paper in her hand to the crow, "I really have no other meaning, but I happened to be the sponsor of the elder. I have started to sponsor him fifteen years ago before I became the head of the family. He told me many times that the industry there is nominal, but it is mine. He will return it to me in a hundred years. So I can see all the information there, including this one."

"Tsk, why is it him again? It's really troublesome."

The crow frowned and opened the paper full of words. The first line read a name: Xinglin Private Hospital. The details of the hospital and its operation were densely written below. Finally, it was a brief description of Zhang Lu's recent physical examination reports. Even the crow had never seen the last report.

"I don't want you to have any bad ideas, so I haven't mentioned it." Mi Xin said sincerely, "But I really need your full help, I'm really sorry."

With a shaking casually, the paper turns into debris in the weather.
