No wonder something like this happened last time, but Nangong Muyue had no impact except the loss of a house. Even the previous troubles about refugees and rebellions had no follow-up. It seems that the Evans family Intervened.
It is necessary to contact Count Nangong Muyue personally.
Shen Fu quickly came to the conclusion that no matter what, this person is the highest-ranking Chinese person in the world. If his application for full penetration is passed, maybe he is a key figure who needs support. Before that, let's show him what kind of person he is.
"What? You didn't find Nangong Muyue's address?"
When he brought Beatrice to the intelligence officer, he got such news from his mouth.
"That's right"
This intelligence officer who looked like a farm boy showed a rare expression of shame.
"All our current intelligence is analyzed through public or semi-public information from the Legitimacy Kingdom. If the other party intends to hide it, it is impossible to find out with our current channels."
Shen Fu could only sigh slightly. This was normal. After all, the five of them had only been here for seven or eight days, so they couldn't expect too much.
"It's okay. I can understand it. In this case, you don't have to worry about this matter anymore. You can focus on developing your own affairs first."
After saying this, Shen Fu disappeared directly with Beatrice, and when he reappeared, he was already on the streets of Paris.
"Shen Fu, what are you going to do?"
Beatrice tilted her head and looked at Shen Fu curiously. She would not use magic like finding someone unless she left a mark on that person first.
"Although it is a bit unexpected, we are not completely without clues. Betty, we have to thank you for this."
Shen Fu looked along the street. At the corner, there was an inconspicuous shop, which was exactly the pawn shop Beatrice discovered that day.
At this time, there was a "Closed Store" sign hanging on the door of the pawn shop. Through the glass, it was vaguely visible that an old man was wiping the goods on the shelf and carefully placing them in the bags one by one.
"It seems like you don't want to open this store anymore?"
Suddenly, such a voice suddenly appeared behind the old man. The old man suddenly jumped out of his wits and immediately took out a cold pistol from his waist. He turned around, bent down, and raised the gun. His movements were all done in one go. His skills were better than those of many younger men. Everyone needs to be agile.
But after seeing the two people behind him, he twitched his mouth twice, glanced at the intact door, and had no choice but to put down the pistol. Without him, this thing was useless to these two people.
"Dignified magician, you like to bully my old man so much. Don't you know what it means to respect the elderly and love the young?"
Only then did Shen Fu notice that the old man's Chinese had a bit of the soft flavor of the Jiangnan dialect.
"A native of Jiangnan? Coincidentally, I am too."
These two words span several provinces. In a sense, Shen Fu's hometown also belongs to Jiangnan.
When the old man heard Jiang Nan, his eyes revealed a moment of reminiscence, but he quickly hid it. The man in front of him was not a simple person. He also knew what happened in the noble area a few days ago. Coupled with the experience of losing his memory when they last met, he had to be vigilant.
"Jiangnan has been gone for a long time. I don't know why Mr. Magician came to see me today. If it is to pawn something, the shop will not be open for business today."
He quietly held his pistol tightly in his hand in case of emergency.
"Jiangnan has always existed. I came here today just to ask one thing, where is Nangong Muyue?"
Although he was a little helpless at the old man's vigilance, he did not want to use hypnosis anymore, but wanted to see the old man's reaction. From this, he could at least see Nangong Muyue's status in his heart.
"Haha, you did ask me something from the old man last time you came here, but this kind of thing will not happen again."
He suddenly wanted to raise his pistol, but the target was not Shen Fu, but himself.
"Snapped--"
With a crisp snap of his fingers, the old man suddenly realized that he had been unable to move for some time, as if there were invisible chains tied to his body. His fingers were trembling, and the muzzle of the gun could no longer move an inch.
"Chain of Darkness" was one of the few Yin magic that Shen Fu could use skillfully. Naturally, the old man's little moves could not be hidden from his eyes, and he had already been prepared.
"For that Nangong Muyue, do you not even care about your own life? Is she worthy of you doing this?"
The old man struggled a few times, finally took a few breaths, and gave up helplessly.
"Of course it's worth it. My old man has lived long enough. Count Nangong Muyue is like my granddaughter to me. Chinese people, what is more important than family members?"
"... Don't worry, we are not looking for Nangong Muyue to do anything to her. Rather, it may be a big opportunity for her. What's more, we saved her just a few days ago. once."
Shen Fu's words made the old man hesitate. He had also heard from Nangong Muyue about what happened a few days ago. It was correct to say that these magicians saved her, but their situation was not very good now.
"You have to understand that if we want to get any information from you, it will be easy. Our current behavior is enough to express our goodwill."
This sentence directly broke the old man's last persistence. If the other party continued to use the same method as last time, he would not be able to keep any information at all.
"...I understand. I will take you there. I hope you can keep your promise."
He glanced at Shen Fu with some reluctance, but finally nodded and agreed. What could he do if he didn't agree? Facing the mysterious magician, he, an ordinary person, had no ability to resist.
Shen Fu didn't say anything else, and directly loosened the restraint on him. When he saw Nangong Muyue, he would naturally know that what he and others told was the truth.
"Don't know what to call the old man?"
Seeing the old man continuing to pack the goods on the closet, Shen Fu asked him his name.
"Tian Anfu, your Excellency, just call me Anfu."
Tian Anfu put his backpack on his back, walked to the door and tied the jingle bell tied on it. After taking one last look at the place, he led the two of them into the alley behind the street. As they continued to go deeper, The surrounding area is completely different from the neat streets outside. Dirty and messy are Shen Fu's only comments about this place.
The haphazardly built pergola, walls covered with graffiti and domestic garbage surrounded by flies made him feel like he was back in the slums of the Zero World. Hidden in the dark area of the prosperous city, Count Nangong Muyue would live. it's here?
