——Took the bait!
Xiao Lin raised his water glass to cover up the snicker at the corner of his mouth.
High-end hunters often appear in the form of prey. It seems that the little action just now was not wasted, and the effort of pretending to be stupid was not in vain.
From the beginning, he was acting.
Pretending to be a country boy who came to the imperial capital and wanted to stand out and make a lot of money but was afraid of being cheated by others.
Such people can be seen everywhere in the Imperial Capital, the only difference is that Kobayashi has a Teigu.
Of course, if Xiaolin is a bad person, even if he is a Teigu user, Ma Yin, who does everything based on her own preferences, will probably give him a pass from the bottom of her heart.
But who knows that Xiao Lin is a good person, and he is also a good person who returns the money he lost!
This is a plus!
Even if she had some minor unpleasantness before, Ma Yin still thought it was Xiaolin's personality.
"What should I do next?"
"Just follow my instructions!"
Ma Yin took Xiao Lin's arm and walked out of the tavern in a hurry.
I thought she would take her directly to the secret base of Night Raid, but I didn't expect that the two of them would go shopping in the imperial capital first.
She was happy, but Xiao Lin was miserable.
On the grounds that she was delicate and frail, she half-forced Xiao Lin to help her carry a huge amount of merchandise.
It wasn't until evening that Ma Yin, who looked satisfied, took Xiao Lin, who was covered in big bags, towards the city gate.
After leaving the city and walking along the official road in the opposite direction to the imperial capital, the surrounding area became increasingly sparsely populated.
Xiao Lin realized that she was taking him to the secret base of Night Raid.
In order to prevent her from getting suspicious halfway, Xiao Lin took the lead and complained, pretending to have no physical strength, "I said Ma Yin, how far is it? I'm tired from walking."
"You've just left the city gate and shouted tired. What a useless man." Ma Yin swung her twin ponytails and looked at him with some disgust.
Xiao Lin was stimulated by her eyes, and his pretended displeasure became real. He raised his hands and asked her to look at the bags hanging on his body.
"Whose fault do you think it is?"
"Well……"
Ma Yin was a little embarrassed, but with her arrogant personality, she didn't want to admit her mistake, so she blamed Xiao Lin.
"Then why didn't you let her hold it?"
She pointed at Liu Zi.
Xiao Lin said dissatisfied: "Liu Zi is a weak girl like you. How could I let her carry heavy objects?"
Do you think Teigu is a weak girl?
Although Liu Zi looks similar to Ma Yin, she is one of the forty-eight Teigu with great power! You actually said that she is a weak girl like yourself? !
Ma Yin curled her lips and said nothing more.
Walked some distance again.
Xiao Lin asked again: "Ma Yin, where are you taking me? Why are you going further and further away?"
"I want to take you to see the former general of the empire. She lives in such a remote place to stay away from the harassment of the imperial ministers. She rarely takes action. You must thank me afterwards!"
She should be talking about the killer team leader Najiexitan.
Ma Yin hinted that Xiao Lin would meet with a big shot later, so that he could look forward to it, while ignoring some side details that would arouse suspicion.
Little did he know that Xiaolin had already seen through it, and now he was just cooperating with her.
"Then what should I pay attention to?"
Xiao Lin pretended to be a little nervous and asked: "Look, I am a country boy. It would not be good if I accidentally bumped into her."
"You don't need to be careful about your words and deeds, Bo... Well, that gentleman is still easy to talk to. You will be reused as a Teigu user, I am sure of this."
Ma Yin seems to be very optimistic about Xiao Lin.
But this didn't reassure Xiao Lin. He would ask again every once in a while, with an uneasy look like a fresh graduate who was about to be interviewed.
At first, Ma Yin would explain patiently, but later she became too annoyed and just walked forward.
When Xiao Lin saw that his goal was achieved, he stopped bothering her.
After walking for a long time and passing through dense woods, they came to a cliff with a wide view.
It was already dark by this time.
Seeing the familiar silhouette of the shadow, Ma Yin, who was tired of it, became happy.
Finally home!
Lubbock, who was responsible for guarding the team, found that Ma Yin had not returned for a long time. He gently put down his inner worries and turned to report to Najiexitan in the main seat.
"Boss, Ma Yin is back."
"Finally home."
Najexitan looked up from the information sent by the revolutionary army.
In fact, she had no intention of reading the information a long time ago, and she breathed a sigh of relief unknowingly after hearing Lubbock's report.
But Lubbock's next words made her heart lift again.
"There's something abnormal. It's not just Ma Yin who came back, there are two other people with her."
"Two more people?"
"A boy and a girl. The boy is a little less handsome than me. The girl is cute and dressed like a noble lady."
After hearing Lubbock's report, Najexitan gradually became serious.
"What about Ma Yin?"
"Ma Yin looks normal. There is no sign of being manipulated. Moreover, she did not give any signals to warn us on her way back. She should not have been captured by the imperial army."
Lubbock reported truthfully and asked again: "Boss, what should we do?"
"Ma Yin shouldn't bring anyone back casually." Najiexitan thought for a while and ordered: "In case of an unexpected incident, gather the entire team."
"yes!"
Upon receiving the order, Lubbock summoned his companions.
…
On the other side, Xiao Lin and Ma Yin soon arrived at the secret base.
Walk into the lobby.
Looking up, he saw a one-eyed, white-haired beauty dressed in men's clothing sitting on the main seat. Her mechanical right arm was very eye-catching.
"Boss, I'm back."
Ma Yin greets her.
Najiexitan nodded and replied: "It's really hard on you to buy necessities for the team. And, who are these two?"
"Boss, listen to me!"
Ma Yin took the initiative to take credit, pointed at Xiao Lin and Liu Zi and said: "He is the Tei Gear user, and next to him is his human form Tei Gear. I saw that he was a talented person, so I brought him back!"
"Did you learn it from Leonai? Do you think everyone is a talented person? And you brought strangers to the base. I remember telling you that this is not allowed!" Najiexitan said angrily to her One glance.
"Well……"
Seeing that she was angry, Ma Yin stuck out her tongue.
However, Teigu users are very rare talents.
Najiexitan's eyes fell on Xiao Lin, who was standing not far away. She felt that this young man was very extraordinary.
Seeing her interest, Ma Yin said a little proudly: "He was a little reluctant at first, but he was still tricked by me! Am I so powerful?"
Now she has stopped acting altogether.
She even raised a naughty smile, as if to avenge her previous teasing, irritating Xiao Lin and said: "Actually, I lied to you when I said I introduced you to the empire's senior officials. How about it? Didn't you expect that?"
However, Xiao Lin was not angry, as if he had expected it.
Najiexitan's eyes flashed slightly in the main seat and she said in a deep voice: "Ma Yin, this young man was deliberately deceived."
"……on purpose?"
After hearing Najiexitan's words, Ma Yin opened her eyes in disbelief and turned to look at Xiao Lin.
"You lied to me?!"
"It was Ma Yin who lied to me first."
This sentence undoubtedly confirmed what Najiexitan said, Xiaolin did lie to her.
Seemingly provocative and humiliating, Xiao Lin took the initiative to tell Ma Yin when he discovered her abnormality.
"From the beginning."
"Did you find out from the beginning?"
"That's right."
Seeing that she didn't believe it, Xiaolin began to reason.
"Ma Yin, you are dressed gorgeously and have a arrogant attitude like a noble lady, but there are no guards around you to protect you. This is the first doubt.
Although Ma Yin has a lot of money and has been shopping, you did not buy expensive luxuries like a noble lady. Instead, you spent the money on cheap ingredients and ordinary daily necessities. This is the second suspicion.
Although Ma Yin treated me generously, you were obviously anxious to leave at that time. But when I took the initiative to reveal that I was a Teigu user, Ma Yin's attitude also changed instantly. This is the third doubt. "
"at last……"
"besides?!"
"Of course. In fact, Ma Yin, you almost let it slip a few times, and I was so nervous that I sweated for you. If you still want to lie to people with your IQ, you'd better eat more walnuts to replenish your health."
chiffon!
Pure tulle!
After getting along with Liu Zi for a long time, Xiao Lin's poisonous tongue skills have also improved a lot, and he dealt a huge blow to Ma Yin as soon as he opened his mouth.
Najexitan coughed lightly.
"No matter what, I still want to thank you for not taking action against Ma Yin."
An unprotected sniper is very dangerous, not to mention that Ma Yin didn't bring a Teigu with her when she went out this time.
Originally, Hill, her partner, was supposed to be with her, but there happened to be a mission that required Hill's Teigu, so Ma Yin was asked to buy supplies for the base alone.
I didn't expect to be discovered by the young man who suddenly appeared.
Najiexi asked curiously: "But you are quite brave. You dare to step in even though you know the trap. Are you confident in your own strength?"
"You can say that." Xiao Lin did not deny it.
"If you don't get into the tiger's den, you won't be able to catch the tiger's cubs. When I realized that you were a gang, I thought about catching you all in one fell swoop, so as to use it as my pledge of surrender."
"A certificate of nomination?"
"I wasn't lying when I said I wanted to get ahead, and you are my credit."
"Credit? Hahahahahaha!"
As if she heard something funny, Najiexitan couldn't help laughing: "If you really kill us all, it will be a great achievement. You might even be named a general."
"Oh? Really?" Xiao Lin pretended to be surprised.
"Young man, it looks like you don't know who we are."
"It's my first day in the imperial capital. I don't know who you are at all. I thought you were ignorant bandits who covet my imperial gear. But now it seems... you seem to be famous?"
"Famous? Oh, of course it's famous!"
Najexitan said with some pride: "Just like people will decay, the country will one day be destroyed.
Even the imperial capital that has been prosperous for thousands of years is nothing more than a corrupt hell on earth, with demons and monsters in human skin running arrogantly and domineeringly everywhere!
If God cannot punish evil, we will disappear in the darkness!
I'm waiting for everyone, the professional killer team! "
As he spoke, everyone from Night Raid made their debut.
