So-called teammates, so-called cooperation

Cheng Shi and Li Bola automatically ignored this teammate who couldn't help, and exchanged their thoughts again.

Now, the two have a brand new understanding of each other.

Cheng Shi thought: This Hunter sister is a master, and a master with clear thinking and action ability.

Li Bola thought: Worthy of being a 2400 player, organized, logical, and thoughtful, a very reliable teammate, but unfortunately a Blood-Changing Priest, a bit of a burden.

Qin Chaoge thought...

She didn't think, she fell asleep.

The plan made by Cheng Shi and Li Bola was to break out of prison separately after nightfall, investigate from within the office, and explore what secrets were hidden in this town.

Now that there is still some time before nightfall, Qin Chaoge saw the two chatting hotly and couldn't get a word in, so she fell asleep directly.

Looking at this sister beside her with a slight snoring sound, Cheng Shi was full of smiles.

Really good at pretending, changing her appearance every once in a while, for fear that others would see through her.

Li Bola was also dumbfounded by her performance, but she didn't seem to give up her observation of the Singer, and her eyes always stayed on the sleeping Singer.

The two who didn't sleep discussed for a long time across the prison cage. Thanks to the Wind-Taming Ranger's means, their communication sounds were blocked by the imperceptible wind wall at the ears of the three.

Feeling the soft wind floating around, Cheng Shi was full of emotion.

When can I have such a terrifying elemental affinity.

Night fell quickly.

Apart from the garrison soldiers coming to deliver food once roughly, no one came down again.

Li Bola saw the moonlight shining through the top window, greeted Cheng Shi with a smile, and then turned into a breeze in front of the two and disappeared.

As soon as she left, Qin Chaoge, who was still snoring, opened her eyes immediately.

"Not sleeping anymore?"

"Why, do you want me to continue sleeping so it's convenient for you to get handsy?"

"..." I just peed, I suggest you go and take a look."

"I've looked, I'm very beautiful, the urine is very smelly, you should drink water."

"?"

Cheng Shi's poisonous mouth was stunned and couldn't even open, he shook his head and smiled bitterly, admitting defeat.

Qin Chaoge laughed twice and leaned on the railing of the two prison cells, asking with a look of winning:

"Tell me, what now?"

Cheng Shi glanced and found that a railing happened to be stuck between Qin Chaoge's chest, making her already proud capital even more eye-catching.

Tsk, her figure is actually not much worse than Hu Xuan's.

"Shouldn't you ask me this?"

"Stop talking nonsense, I think your brain is better than mine, you say I do, save time."

Cheng Shi raised his eyebrows in surprise, this sister is very pragmatic.

"Do you trust me?"

"How do you know without trying."

"Good, then follow that Hunter. I have an intuition that she is hiding something from us. Follow her and you can find the reason.

You, can you?"

This is a direct provocation.

Qin Chaoge heard it, but she didn't refuse.

Only to see her glance at Cheng Shi, without saying a word, she tore open the prison door with her bare hands.

Immediately followed by a deep squat and a fierce jump, rushing to the edge of the top window almost two stories high, grabbing the iron railing on the window.

Then...

She didn't choose to tear open the iron window, but instead easily crushed the wall by the window with her hand, and chased out with a nimble figure.

Looking at this exaggerated scene, Cheng Shi didn't recover for a long time.

Ah?

Singer (Warrior), right?

When I wasn't paying attention just now, what song did this Singer sing to herself to become so fierce?

Not to mention this.

Big sister, you rushed out so blatantly, do you think all the prisoners in this dungeon are fools?

Sure enough, after Qin Chaoge violently broke out of prison, all the travelers in the cell boiled.

They shouted and howled, shaking the railings of the cell hard, attempting to learn from Qin Chaoge and tear open the prison door to regain freedom.

But not everyone is a muscular Barbie.

At least Cheng Shi is not.

He shook for a long time but couldn't shake the prison door open. Finally, a kind-hearted cellmate helped Cheng Shi open the door with a wire.

"Not bad, brother, your lock-picking means are skilled."

"Just kidding, I was... eh? What was I doing before? Forget it, don't care, let's go, take advantage of the night guards going home, we are free!"

Saying this, this cellmate who was good at lock-picking rushed out of the dungeon with the large army.

Cheng Shi frowned and looked at his back as he fled, thoughtful.

"Forget it, let's go first."

The slacker is sleeping in the hotel, the mage is nowhere to be found, the ranger is investigating everywhere, and now the singer is sent away.

Finally, only one person is left.

Now, it's convenient to go for an autopsy.

Yes, autopsy.

The fact that a teammate died at the start has always been like a fishbone stuck in Cheng Shi's heart.

If you don't find out who this murderer is and let him lurk in the dark, this trial will probably not be easy.

Although all the clues are rough and deliberately point to the 【Silence】 believer committing suicide under pollution, anyone with a discerning eye can see that something is wrong.

Li Bola followed them to the dungeon, presumably for this reason, she was also scrutinizing whether the two of them could be the murderer.

Cheng Shi hadn't found a chance to contact the 【Silence】 believer's corpse alone in the hotel before. At this time, it should be less than 12 hours since the teammate died. As long as he finds where the corpse is, maybe he can ask some useful information.

In the previous exchange, Li Bola had told them the result of the hotel "suicide case."

The garrison came to check the scene, was tight-lipped about the death of the two, closed the case hastily, and did not pursue it further.

And those two corpses were also taken to a place called the Eternal Church.

All the dead in the town will be transported there, waiting for the High Priest's purification and next burial.

So, the current goal is, Eternal Church.

Cheng Shi paced out from the gap Qin Chaoge pinched with her bare hands, looked up at the blood moon just rising in the sky, and felt happy in his heart.

Night is always the best time for dark and dirty things to run rampant.

Good people should stay at home.

Unfortunately, I am a bad seed.

On the other side.

On the roof of a religious building north of the Traveler's Office, Li Bola hid in the shadows motionless, like a cheetah waiting for prey to arrive.

And beside her, there was another person waiting quietly.

Looking carefully through the faint moonlight, this person was none other than Qin Chaoge who had just left Cheng Shi's side.

She was still in a carefree manner, lying in the shadows of the roof, asking boredly:

"Are you sure he will come?"

Li Bola smiled.

"Of course.

Although he performed very naturally, I can feel that he has a strong desire for that corpse."

"Tell me, how did you feel it."

"It doesn't matter if I tell you, people's sight can distort time, although this time is not the one we understand, it does exist changes.

My Lord granted me the perception of this change, and I can clearly perceive where everyone's sight is looking.

Cheng Shi disguised very naturally, and his sight was controlled very precisely and cleverly, but no matter how clever the disguise, there will be traces.

And Hunters are best at tracking traces."

"Big sister, can you say it simply?"

"He paid too little attention to the corpse.

Although that Life Sage also paid little attention, combined with her state, it can be understood as not caring.

But Cheng Shi is a priest, and a 【Corruption】 priest. The newly dead corpse will overflow with 【Corruption】 power. He has no reason not to absorb it.

This divine power is far simpler than self-harm.

So, he is hiding...

At first I was guessing what he was hiding, until you chased after him, I was sure, he wanted to perform an autopsy."

"Autopsy is autopsy, why send me away?"

"Everyone has some little secrets, don't they?"

"Tsk, also, but big sister, your secret is not small, tell me like this, aren't you afraid I'll pit you?"

Li Bola sneered and said:

"Even if I don't say it, you should have drawn it, right?

Singer lady, now, can you take your hand away?"

Qin Chaoge sheepishly withdrew her hand that had been touching some big secrets, and smiled with her face:

"Sorry, it's too big, couldn't help it."

"Do you like women?" Li Bola frowned.

Qin Chaoge was stunned, her face strange: "Maybe?"

"I can tell you where Hu Xuan is."

"No, I like men, I am very sure."

"..."

The scene fell into a short silence. Afterwards, Qin Chaoge couldn't hold back again and said:

"We are clearly teammates, why make it like this, isn't it better to be together directly?"

Li Bola smiled.

"'Team' word has one ear and one person, don't listen clearly to what kind of person it is, how to judge whether it is a teammate.

The road is walked by yourself, now you have walked here, but you ask me back?

Don't probe, Singer, I know you are not stupid."

"I am stupid..."

"Shh... don't talk, he is coming."
