The rain is falling, a steady patter.
In front of the warehouse shutter door at night, the blood stains on the ground were diluted by the rain and were becoming more and more sluggish.
At this time, a short, fat Mediterranean man was kneeling at the door of the warehouse, with three lying corpses next to him! There was a blood hole as big as a bowl on the chest of each corpse, and the internal organs could be seen, and the three corpses had long since lost their breath.
The Mediterranean men had long since turned pale and kept kowtowing to beg for mercy.
"Miss Yiren, don't kill me, don't kill me..."
In front of him, Xi Xin was soaked by the heavy rain, her hair disheveled, like a female ghost demanding her life.
"Hand over the money." The woman's voice sounded sinisterly, "I saw you doing cash transactions with others before, please take out all your cash!"
"Okay, okay... But I took the money, can you please not kill me..." the Mediterranean man trembled and begged.
Xi Xin said nothing and looked at him coldly.
"I really don't want to die, I still have a wife and children..." the Mediterranean man said with a crying tone, "I apologize to you, but you have to know that slave traders like me are everywhere in Neptune City. I am not targeting you... Oh, by the way! I have some information that may be useful to you, and I will tell you as long as you spare my life!"
"Is there any information that is useful to me?" Xi Xin frowned, and directly pressed his taut arms against the slave trader's temple, "Speak clearly, or I will kill you now!"
"Don't! Don't! I said it's not okay..." The Mediterranean man was so frightened that his nose and tears came down, and he immediately said spinelessly, "Not long ago, a man came to my place and asked about your whereabouts..."
Xi Xin was stunned.
"What does that man look like?"
"Just like an ordinary boy..." The Mediterranean man quickly gave a rough description.
"Then how did he describe me?"
"He has a photo of you... He also described your appearance very clearly, especially your special pair of pincer-like arms and their special attack methods... They are exactly the same as when you did it just now..." The slave trader was pointed at the head and did not dare to hide it at all.
Xi Xin's face gradually turned ugly.
Suddenly, he covered his head in pain.
"Crystal Palace..."
"It must be someone from the Crystal Palace who knows me so well... After running so far, did they still send someone to chase me..."
"No, I can't be found by them. Although I can't remember what happened specifically, I remember that I took a huge risk to escape. If they catch me, it's over..."
Xi Xin's expression changed constantly, and finally she seemed to have made up her mind.

Winter winter winter.
At this time, there was a knock on the door of Urakawa Yukihei's house.
No one answered, but the lock seemed broken and the door was only ajar. It was knocked by an external force and opened a crack, making Lu Ping who was standing at the door slightly startled.
He shrugged his nose.
Ever since he followed the clues from the Shannan Yiren Market and found the warehouse where the slave traders kept many female Yiren slaves, Lu Ping smelled the strong smell of Xi Xin near the warehouse! Because it was so strong, he was sure that Xi Xin must have stayed here for a while, and had even been injured and bled.
After questioning the slave trader again, the slave trader did not dare to hide anything anymore, but told everything.
It turns out that Xi Xin was indeed imprisoned in this warehouse a few days ago!
According to the dealer, he bought a batch of "new goods" from a reconstruction clinic at a certain dock, and Xi Xin was one of them... And because of her good looks, she was chosen by the customers who came to see the goods that afternoon. The deal is done!
However, before leaving the warehouse, there are still some procedures, such as using a high-pressure water gun to wash the slave's body and put on new clothes... But at this juncture, Xi Xin actually resisted the chip's instructions and escaped forcefully! For this reason, half of his head was blown to pieces on the spot, and he fled into the sewer bloody and disappeared from sight.
This matter... was later strictly silenced by the slave trader. Neither he nor his employees mentioned it, because after all, if it was spread that the slaves sold by their family could resist the instructions of the chip, Then I’m afraid no one will dare to buy his slaves again!
Because of this, when Lu Ping interrogated him for the first time in the Shannan Yiren Market, this guy had a flash of expression and was thinking about him.
The other party didn't know where Xi Xin went, whether she was dead or alive, but Lu Ping knew that she should still be alive.
After all, part of her head was blown off by a chip. This is not the first time Xi Xin has experienced this...
Lupine had a clue, so he also jumped into the sewer, using the keen sense of smell in his hunter form to track all the way, and finally successfully found Urakawa Yukihei's home.
"There's a very obvious smell of Xi Xin in it."
Lupine faced the crack in the door and shrugged his nose. He was sure that he had found the right place!
Lu Ping didn't care too much about the secrets related to himself and the Crystal Palace. He opened the door and walked in. Then he saw...a little man covered in dried blood and breathing hot breath, lying on the bed.
Other than that, there was no one else in the room.
However, Lu Ping actually found a small decorative crystal ball, inside which rotated a 3D virtual photo of the little man and Xi Xin.
"It seems that Xi Xin may be living in this family these days, but why isn't she here?" Lu Ping frowned deeply.
He just felt something wrong at the door! In fact, there was a hint of Xi Xin's scent at the door, and it extended to a dark alley in the distance, indicating that she might have walked this road not long ago.
"You happened to go out? Or...are you avoiding me?" Lu Ping was not sure.
Finally, he took a deep look at the little man in the room, cleared away the traces of his entrance, and then retreated little by little, following the path pointed by the scent.
But the further they walked, the weirder Lupine felt.
Why does this direction seem to be pointing to the slave trader's warehouse that he just visited not long ago?
Sure enough, ten minutes later, Lupine returned to his old place! But this time here, he smelled a strong smell of Xi Xin and a strong smell of blood!
A book-chasing app recommended to me by an old book friend I have known for ten years! It’s so easy to use. I rely on it to pass the time while driving or before going to bed by reading and listening to books. You can download it here..]
He easily found the corpses of four ordinary humans from hiding places.
"It's the slave trader and his three hired workers." Lu Ping recognized them at a glance.
I just talked to these people a few hours ago!
At this time, these people all had bloody holes in their chests as big as the mouth of a bowl. Lu Ping was familiar with this kind of scars, it was exactly the effect of the mantis shrimp fist!
"Is it a coincidence or intentional?" Lu Ping's expression became solemn, "I just found her traces here, and she turned around and left the residence, and the route was staggered with me... And these four people have seen me Later, she was killed by Xi Xin, which means that Xi Xin probably already knew that I was looking for her..."
"Without further delay." Lupine immediately realized that it was time to race against time.
If Xi Xin already knew that he was hunting her, he must be running away now and doing everything possible to erase his traces! The slower Lupine chases, the more likely he is to lose him!
"It's time to try the tracking ability of the hunter form, Xi Xin, you can't escape."
Lupine took a deep breath and transformed directly into his complete hunter form.
The whole person turned into the appearance of a lizard man with a bald head, green scales and three spines on his back. He jumped out of the warehouse and quickly disappeared into the night.
