Chapter 1534

After completing a series of procedures and collecting Melody's personal belongings, Su Xiao walked out of the prison. Melody followed at a distance, not too far or too close. Looking at her expression, it seemed she was ready to run at any time.

"I'll give you 10 minutes to run. Now... start."

Su Xiao took out a pocket watch and began to time it.

"What will happen if I'm caught after 10 minutes?"

Melody was very smart. She didn't run at the first moment. Ransoming a White Witch with a criminal record for fraud required paying a large sum of gold coins.

"Skin you alive."

"Haha, this is the funniest thing I've heard recently..."

Melody laughed and laughed until she couldn't laugh anymore. Whether it was an illusion or not, she felt that the other party really might do it!

"What do you want to get? My body? Don't even think about it. I'm a very stubborn person. If you are interested in a corpse, you can try to possess me."

Melody's expression became serious. She knew that this was an opportunity, a dangerous opportunity. She was very short of money, and Su Xiao seemed very wealthy.

"Finished?"

"Uh~ probably."

"Follow me."

Su Xiao walked toward a tavern. Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang was already waiting inside. It was nine o'clock in the morning, and there was basically no one in that tavern.

Five minutes later.

Hiss~

A beer mug as thick as a fist was filled to the brim and overflowed. The bartender picked up a wooden ruler, scraped off the white beer foam at the mouth of the mug, and then tapped the wooden table with the ruler. The beer foam was shaken away. The whole set of actions was very skillful.

A large mug of beer was placed in front of Su Xiao. The beer in the transparent mug was orange-yellow, and bubbles were rising rapidly, making a pleasant hissing sound.

In the quiet tavern, Su Xiao and Melody sat opposite each other at a wooden table in the corner. There were only a few drunks in the whole tavern; pragmatic commoners wouldn't drink at this time.

"Drink."

Su Xiao picked up the beer mug in front of him and placed it in front of Melody. Melody frowned. As an elegant lady, drinking beer in large gulps was clearly impossible.

With a 'Clink!', a gold coin fell onto the wooden table. Those drunks and the bartender looked over one after another. Some people even had greed flowing in their eyes, but after seeing Amu, who was three meters tall, they put away their greedy gazes.

"One coin per mug."

"Heh."

Melody gave a slightly 'disdainful' chuckle. She pulled off those black gloves, flicked them onto the table, and her fair hand gripped the handle...

Gulp, gulp, gulp...

On the premise of maintaining elegance, Melody took more than a dozen sips to finish the mug of beer. She reached out and pressed the gold coin on the table.

"This is mine."

"That's right."

While speaking, Su Xiao opened his palm, and more than a dozen gold coins fell onto the table.

"Don't even think about it."

Melody put down the empty beer mug, suppressing the urge to burp. She saw what Su Xiao meant: one gold coin per mug.

"The first mug, one coin," Su Xiao said while picking up two gold coins with two fingers: "The second mug, two coins, the third mug, three coins."

"Are you... a devil?"

Melody grabbed the remaining mug of beer on the table without hesitation.

"Bartender, keep the drinks coming."

"Alright, guest."

Ten minutes later, the wooden table in front of Su Xiao was already filled with beer mugs, and white beer foam was slowly sliding down the mug walls to the bottom.

"I'm still okay, no problem, I'm a witch~"

Melody lay on the large pile of beer mugs, her pretty face slightly flushed, occasionally giggling. She was laughing from the bottom of her heart because she had received many gold coins.

"Witch, don't sleep."

Su Xiao patted Melody's head.

"Huh?" Melody looked at Su Xiao blankly: "Who are you?"

"Who I am is not important, but I want to know some news about the Land of Death."

"Land of Death? That ghost place, who would go to learn about it? Some perverted old woman set up 'Dust Frost Temptation' in the south. Whoever dares to reveal specific news about the Land of Death will trigger that ghost thing. Hey, are you trying to trick me into telling you the news about the Land of Death? I'm Melody, the Witch of Trickery, Melody, very strong~"

It was very obvious that Melody was drunk. This was also the effect Su Xiao wanted. Although he hadn't been in contact with Melody for long, he discovered a weakness of hers: she loved money more than her life, or rather, she had something she must complete, and that thing required a large sum of money. For this, she even impersonated a big shot to enter the city.

"Not much deviation from what I expected."

Melody's words confirmed Su Xiao's previous guess.

"If I want to join the Holy Healing Church, what do I need to do? How can I become a Witch Hunter?"

"Don't know, I want to drink, I want gold coins, go away."

Melody, lying on the large pile of beer mugs, raised her head and looked at Su Xiao with blurred eyes.

"Tell me the intelligence, and everything you want can be given to you."

"Oh? Then I'll tell you. Joining the Holy Healing Church... only needs... proof of identity, but that's just for small fry. To become a Witch Hunter... if you aren't talent cultivated by the Holy Healing Church, you must at least hunt and kill a witch. Not hunting me, but a Black Witch! Black Witch~"

"Holy Healing Church..."

"Hoo~"

Before Su Xiao finished speaking, a faint snoring sound came from Melody's mouth.

"Amu, carry her."

Su Xiao's words were naturally obeyed by Amu. Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, who was on the side, grinned, meaning: "Master, such a fragrant and sexy thing, you actually let Amu do it."

"..."

Su Xiao didn't speak. Carrying Melody wasn't fragrant or sexy. In the early stages of drunkenness, people couldn't enter deep sleep at all.

"Ugh~"

Melody's body on Amu's back twitched. Amu looked at this long-legged female creature in confusion. When it walked out of the tavern, Melody vomited all over its back with a 'Wah!'.

Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang's dog face looked awkward, and he looked at Su Xiao, meaning: "Master, you really have foresight."

"Cough, just an accident. Amu, don't just stand there, find an inn to settle this woman. We can still use her later."

Su Xiao first exchanged a few gold coins for silver coins or copper coins with smaller denominations. He would stay in Holy Healing City for a long time, at least until he found clues about the word 'Mo'. Melody was also one of the sources of intelligence.

Soon, Su Xiao opened a room in an inn called 'Locke'.

The economy of Holy Healing City was very developed; there was even a sewage system under the city. Don't look down on these dirty sewers; they made the city cleaner and significantly reduced the possibility of disease outbreaks.

In ancient Europe, feces and the like were poured into streets or alleys. One can imagine that scene. High heels were invented and promoted because of this. The main role of high heels at the beginning was to avoid stepping on shit. It's amazing, but it's indeed a fact.

On the second floor of the Locke Inn, Su Xiao sat cross-legged on a wooden chair. On the bed in front was Melody, who was sleeping soundly. Su Xiao couldn't raise any interest in this 'sleeping beauty' who was full of the smell of alcohol and vomited intermittently.

Time passed slowly. When the sunset of dusk shrouded Holy Healing City, Melody on the bed woke up leisurely. She was currently hugging the quilt, her eyes sleepy.

"Water~"

Melody raised her arm. This was the first time in her life she had been so drunk that she forgot what had happened before. In her memory, Su Xiao ransomed her out of prison and went to a tavern. For every extra mug of beer she drank, she could get the same amount of gold coins. Her memory stopped there.

Recalling these, Melody's eyes widened. She carefully felt the changes in her body. After manually exploring herself, she confirmed that there was no problem. Her tense body relaxed, but just as she got up, her peripheral vision saw Su Xiao sitting cross-legged on the wooden chair.

The atmosphere was very awkward, so awkward that Melody wanted to jump out the window and escape.

"You, you saw everything."

Melody's face was twitching. Although she looked seductive, she was actually conservative to the point of stubbornness.

"If you are talking about, you just took off..."

"Don't say it, please, don't continue."

Melody tidied her clothes, and her expression gradually returned to normal, forcing herself to forget the awkward scene just now.

Su Xiao tossed a bottle of water to Melody. Melody took it and drank a few mouthfuls in a row. That's how it is after being drunk; alcohol will cause some of the water in the cells to permeate to the outside, which is the main reason for thirst after being drunk.

After replenishing water, Melody's spirit recovered a bit.

"What is your purpose in looking for me? I can't tell you everything about the news of the Land of Death. What can be said has already been explained. As for joining the Holy Healing Church, this news can be heard everywhere."

It was very obvious that Melody recalled some things after being drunk.

"I want you to assist me in hunting and killing Black Witches."

"What?!"

Melody's pupils constricted, her eyes full of disbelief.
