After waking up

Farrow Lynch was somewhat moved when he heard Mulan say that he was his friend. After the train stopped, he even enthusiastically wanted to help Mulan take the suitcase. Of course, he just picked it up and handed it over.

There were people outside the Solens train station who had been keeping an eye on people coming from the south. After seeing Mullan and Farrow Lynch appear, a man who had been watching for several days suddenly became energetic. He hurriedly walked to his companions. He hit the opponent's back with his elbow.

"Huh? What's wrong?"

The smoking companion turned around, and the younger man moved his mouth in a direction.

"Here we go, hurry up."

"It's really here!"

The companion quickly threw the cigarette butt on the ground, stamped it out with his leather shoes, and then hurriedly walked towards Mulan's location with his companion. However, they did not approach Mulan immediately, but turned directly after walking for a while.

At this moment, Mullan was carrying his suitcase and taking Farrow Lynch out of the drop-off area, preparing to hire a carriage to find a place to stay after leaving the station.

Solens is a large city in the north, and the station is not small in size. There are many taxis waiting for business at the exit of the station. The grade of the carriages distinguishes the levels of the coachmen. They are all coachmen, but the carriages are better. Coachmen with well-groomed horses tend to be aloof and don't talk much to ordinary coachmen, and they are not even aggressive in soliciting passengers, because they know that decent passengers will always choose them.

Mullan and Farrow Lynch were not so particular and were prepared to just find a decent carriage. They followed some passengers out of the station. Before Mulan could walk to the carriage area in front, a black The carriage passed by them, and the driver stopped on his own initiative.

"Sir, do you want to hire a carriage? My car is suitable, clean and tidy, and the price is cheap!"

The coachman held the reins and chatted with Mulan with a smile on the carriage. Just when Mulan was about to refuse, he suddenly noticed that the other party's hand holding the reins clenched his fist and patted his chest. This was a quick and concealed gesture. , one of the common code words for imperial intelligence personnel.

"Okay, this car is suitable. Let's get in."

The coachman quickly got out of the car, opened the door for Mulan, closed the door from the outside, returned to the front position, and then immediately drove the carriage away.

After Mullan and Farrow Lynch got in the car, they found that there was another person sitting in the car. After the door closed and the carriage started moving again, the man took the initiative to speak and at the same time made a fist salute to Mulan.

"Special Observer No. 6 of the Seventh Reinde Branch has met Mr. Jones. The one outside is No. 9. We have been waiting for you at the station for several days, and finally we did not miss your schedule!"

"Thanks for your hard work."

Mulan was a little surprised. The other party actually didn't know his whereabouts, but he was able to find him accurately. This ability of inference and execution was quite good.

"By the way, who is this?"

Mullan glanced at Farrow Lynch.

"Well, my attendant, Farolin."

Observer No. 6 immediately saluted Farrow Lynch, who nodded gloomily to No. 6 and said nothing.

"Sir, let me briefly talk about the situation of the Sun Stone first, and then you will be fully responsible for the dispatch. There are sixteen of us here, and we will obey your command unconditionally."

No. 6 immediately began to make a report. Mulan listened with a serious expression. At the same time, he was looking out of the carriage window and looking at the situation in Solens City.

The current situation is that the Sun Stone will be one of several final treasures and will be auctioned at the auction in a week. Of course, the name of the auction item is not the Sun Stone, but the Sun Wheel Gem. A jewelry collection.

However, although this auction seems to be just a high-profile ordinary auction, the auction items are not only the sun disc gem with problems, but also several very special items, such as a seemingly ordinary ancient book. In fact, it may be a book of secrets without ownership, a strange colorful glass crystal, which actually also contains mysterious elements.

All in all, there are several items in this auction that ordinary people should not be able to own.

And the news of the auction must have spread through some channels, and the number of mysterious people in Solens City is also increasing.

"In other words, the current situation in Solens City is a bit complicated?"

Mulan frowned, turned his gaze from the window back to the car, and looked at Observer No. 6, who had an equally serious expression and nodded in reply.

"Yes, it has exceeded our expectations. Some of these mysterious people may be people who can use some magical things, but there are definitely real extraordinary people. We dare not get too close to these people to understand their situation. The information is not comprehensive enough. We only know the mode of transportation they took when they came, the routes they passed through before, as well as the time they arrived, their current residence and the location they often appear recently, etc., but it cannot track everyone."

Well, as far as the current situation is concerned, knowing this much is already a lot, and Mulan is not stingy with free praise.

"You've done a pretty good job. It's really not advisable to get too close to beings who can use mysterious power. But these guys appear in Dilga territory. Do they abide by the rules?"

Number 6 forced a smile.

"At least on the surface they are still obeying the rules, but we can't effectively monitor them and don't know all the situations. I think there must be some people who make small moves, but they should be concerned about the empire and the convention."

The so-called convention does not actually have any explicit terms, but a simple tacit understanding has basically been formed in the mysterious world, that is, not to show up in front of ordinary people unless necessary, and not to do too many excessive things to ordinary people.

This is not to say that the existence of the mysterious world is noble, but it is just a means to avoid the spread of the other world. After all, the mapping power of the other world increases too fast, which does not bring much benefit to everyone. At least the benefits are less than that of the other world. Impact.

Yeah, but there are always exceptions, like some cult lunatics and people who have no bottom line.

The carriage soon arrived in front of an ordinary hotel. Mullan and Farrow Lynch got out of the car, paid, and then checked into their respective rooms. Not long after, several intelligence officers who needed to meet came to their rooms one after another. Each explained what they knew to Mulan.

The situation of Solens was basically the same as what was learned on the carriage before, but because the tracking personnel were responsible for different directions, Mulan got more details in these aspects.

In a private house a few streets away, a man and a woman were sitting together enjoying lunch. A plate of beans, a bowl of broth, and a piece of bread was all they had for lunch.

The man wore a pair of silver-rimmed glasses. He didn't look old, and his hair was all pale.

The woman's figure is extremely hot. She is obviously wearing very ordinary cotton and linen clothes, but the bulging skirt and the tight pants when she sits down are extremely hot.

The woman was playing with a golden dice while eating, and the man was reading a newspaper while eating. There was another table of people beside them. They looked like a normal family of four, eating the same food. The dining table There was also laughter and laughter.

The situation between the two tables was a bit strange, as if the family didn't know there were two more people in the house.

"Looking at their looks, I couldn't help but think of when we were kids, when my mother would make a pot of broth, both of us would be very happy, as if all the happiness in the world was concentrated in the soup."

The woman was stunned for a moment, but she still curled her lips and said something.

"It's just that the mistress has an extra silver coin under her pillow every day. See how happy they are."

The woman was playing with the dice and talking casually, throwing the dice again and again, each time it was one, and then suddenly a two appeared.

"Ahhhhh!"

"What's wrong, is it six o'clock?"

"No, it's two o'clock! Two o'clock!"

The man grinned, flipped a page of the newspaper, and then took a bite of bread, but he paused after chewing for two seconds.

"The person in charge of Dilga should be here, their intelligence officers have gone to the same place one after another!"

The woman raised her head and stretched.

"It's finally here, several days later than expected!"

"Then the auction can start, right?"

"It's almost done. We can start early. However, we still don't know who Dilga sent here this time. Judging from the importance of the intelligence personnel, it should be a big deal."

The woman weighed the dice in her hand, then took out a golden pistol from the inside of her coat and placed it on the table.

"It would be great if Walton, the Faced Demon, came in person."

"This is unlikely. Haha, hurry up and eat. I have something to do."
