Chapter 319 Future Knights
After listening to the contents of the note, Ma Lu understood why Levi had given him this secret mission.
The Shrike was killed by Li Wei and he "joined forces". Li Wei relied on this achievement to reach the peak of his reputation in the Holy Knights, bypassing the leader Martin, and Malu also Transform from a rookie knight to a master.
Now there may be something wrong with this matter, and the people who will be affected will naturally include Malu in addition to Li Wei.
The two are grasshoppers on the same rope, so it makes sense for Li Wei to arrange for him to secretly investigate this matter.
It's a pity that Malu didn't care as much about the master's identity as Li Wei thought, and Li Wei was not very interesting. He was asked to investigate the case, but he was not allowed to bring the witch.
Although the witch is not an urgent need in the city without the threat of activated plants, the knight's armor is enough to deal with most enemies. If it is not possible, you can still ask for help from the knights, and from the perspective of confidentiality, there is no doubt that the movement will be louder if you act alone. Small.
But Malu was still unhappy and planned to give up.
However, he still had to keep up appearances. He randomly selected a few lucky passers-by on the street and pretended to inquire about the drinking party with them.
As expected, these people said they had never heard of this name.
Just when Ma Lu was thinking that he was almost worthy of Li Wei's cultivation, he suddenly heard a voice coming from behind him.
“Drinkers’ gathering? I know, I know, that’s where a group of uncles drink.”
“Who said that, there are big sisters there too,” another voice said, “Beautiful Big sister."
"Why did you tell this? Uncle Hal said you can't talk about it everywhere."
"But the other party is a knight, a knight. It’s definitely okay to represent justice.”
"Well, that's right..."
Ma Lu turned around and found that he was still an acquaintance, the group of children he had met on the street before who were chasing him for autographs.
Ma Lu also let them sit on his shoulders, but now that he has new armor, those children probably won't recognize him.
But the admiration in their eyes has not weakened. In fact, most boys in this city dream that one day they can become handsome knights, put on armor, and defend the Temple City with their witches. The last civilization of mankind.
Hearing this, Ma Lu turned around and said, "Do you know where the drinkers gather?"
"Of course." One of the boys who looked like a child king said proudly, "They are always changing places. One of our games is to find new places for their gatherings, Jie Jie Jie Jie."
Next to him, another little boy who was slightly thinner and looked like a dog-headed military counselor also put his hands on his hips and said, "Nothing that happens around here can be hidden from the eyes of our future knights."
"Not bad, not bad. , you are ready to be a knight."
Ma Lu gave a thumbs up, and the children were even more happy when they heard this, and someone shouted, "I will lead the way for you, Lord Knight."
The hospitality was hard to reject, so Ma Lu could only follow them to a shoemaker's shop on the next street.
Before Malu could speak, a child rushed up, knocked on the door and said, "Uncle Hal, open the door quickly, we have brought a knight!"
"What?" A cry of surprise came from inside. Phew, followed by the sound of chaotic footsteps, the sound of something being hit, and the sound of broken wine bottles, but then a voice suddenly said.
"Why are you panicking? Today is a celebration day, you can drink."
"Yes." Others also reacted at this time, and after a while, the door was finally opened. opened.
A drunk man with a red face stuck his head out from behind the door, glared at the group of children outside the door, and then looked up at Malu.
"My Lord Knight, why did you come to my store? Today is the celebration day. My friends and I had a few drinks. If you want me to make shoes, you'd better come back tomorrow." "No, I'm here. Looking for someone.”
“Who are you looking for?” The visitor became alert when he heard this.
"Do you know Goethe?"
"No...I have never heard of this name." The man's eyes dodge, and he subconsciously twisted his neck and looked behind him, although he quickly Realizing something was wrong, he stopped.
This poor performance left Ma Lu speechless.
As long as he can act more realistically, Ma Lu can also take advantage of the situation and end the investigation. However, this guy is obviously drunk, and his head is half a beat slower.
In front of so many people, Malu could only say, "I want to go in and talk to Goethe."
"Uh..." Hal was still thinking hard, Want to find a reason to prevent Malu from entering the shoe store.
But Malu had already squeezed him away and walked straight in.
There were about a dozen people in the shoe store, most of them men, who were as red-faced as Hal. The only woman was about thirty years old, with a plump figure, and she was playing cards with two men.
Without exception, the smell of alcohol remained on their bodies, but there was no alcohol in the house.
Ma Lu looked around and asked, "Who is Goethe?"
No one answered.
After about half a minute, Ma Lu nodded and said, "It doesn't matter...I have plenty of time."
After saying that, he turned around and closed the door, pulled up a chair and sat at the door.
This is Ma Lu's new way of catching fish. On the surface, it looks like he is working hard to investigate the case at an important location, but in fact he is just sitting here killing time, and will call it a day when the time is almost up.
It was just that Malu didn't relax for long when he heard another voice, "I am Goethe. I don't know what you have to do with me, Lord Knight."
The speaker was a man with a thin cheek. A man wearing a wide-brimmed hat.
"No, you're not! Sit down." Malu didn't want the investigation to advance so quickly, so he retorted directly.
A look of astonishment appeared on the man's face after hearing this. He wanted to say something else, but at this time, the only woman in the room suddenly put down the cards in her hand and stood up.
"Since the Lord Knight already knows that I am Goethe, why do you still ask questions knowingly?"
Ma Lu sighed, wondering if today is the International Investigation Day, and why are there so many people here? They are all busy surrendering themselves.
Goethe continued, "I know why you are here, and I can answer your questions, but I need a promise from you."
"What promise?"
< br>
"After I confess everything, ensure my safety and do not pursue the crimes I committed." Goethe said, "I am just a small information dealer, and I never wanted to participate in the struggles of those big shots."
"Okay." Malu nodded.
"Then let's go upstairs and talk." After Goethe finished speaking, he took the lead and walked upstairs.
There was no ambush upstairs. Ma Lu could tell this from the chessboard map, so he followed.
