Lumian didn't look back, didn't turn around, and still walked towards the stop sign of the public carriage.
He looked around casually, and his eyes fell on the glass window of a nearby cafe.
There was a figure of him wearing a dark jacket, and not too far away from him, there was a man in a canvas jacket and a peaked cap.

After Lumian withdrew his gaze, he suddenly quickened his pace as if trying to catch up with the two-story public carriage that was about to leave the platform.
Unsurprisingly, he felt the man in the blue peaked cap start trotting.
The public carriage turned silently and drove towards the end of the street. Lumian had no hope of "chasing" and suddenly stopped at the same spot.
With the help of the window of the shop on the street, Lumian saw the man wearing the peaked cap stop abruptly in a bit of embarrassment, turned halfway, and looked at the singing and dancing hall opposite.
Nodding invisibly, Lumian crossed the bus stop sign as if wandering, walked all the way, and turned into a secluded alley separated by barricades.
The man in the peaked cap followed quickly, and climbed over the broken barricade, but he could no longer see Lumian's back.
The target he was following seemed to disappear into the alley out of thin air.
Just as the man in the peaked cap tried to catch up, Lumian, who had shrunk to the corner of the barricade, jumped out like a tiger, put his hands on the opponent's shoulders, and pulled his body back towards his knees.
boom!
One of Lumian's knees hit the waist of the man in the peaked cap. The pain made his face contort, and his legs could no longer support himself.
With a plop, the man in the peaked cap fell to the ground, stirring up a lot of dust.
Lumian squatted down, grabbed the back of the stalker's head, and said in a low voice, "Who told you to follow me?"
"I didn't! I was just taking a shortcut!" the man in the peaked cap hurriedly argued.
Lumian laughed, grabbed his head, and slammed it to the ground.
Amidst the bang, the man in the peaked cap screamed in pain and got stuck in his throat, his forehead was bruised and swollen, stained with blood.
"Who asked you to follow me?" Lumian repeated the question just now.
The man wearing the peaked cap is wronged
"I didn't follow you! I don't even know you!"
"Okay." Lumian released his right hand.
In the next second, he used his palm as a knife, and slashed heavily behind the ear of the stalker.
The man in the peaked cap passed out without even humming.
Lumian then lifted him up and thoughtfully lowered his hat to cover his closed eyes.
Then, like helping a drunk friend, he walked out of the alley steadily and turned to the corner of the street.
There is an entrance to the underworld.
The reason why Lumian was "waiting" for the stalker in the alley just now was because he thought that something could be transferred to the ground later, and the environment was "peaceful" enough.
When the man in the peaked cap woke up, there was darkness in front of his eyes, except for a little light in the distance, which barely showed the outline of the surrounding things.
The sound of bang bang bang bang passed into his ears through layers of obstacles, from far to near, and then quickly went away.
As an aborigine in the Candide Market area, he is no stranger to such scenes. He suspects that he has been taken underground. There is a steam subway passing through the "street" next door, and the faint light here comes from there.
Seeing that the stalker fell silent and did not answer immediately, Lumian knew that his spiritual defense had been shaken, so he added:
"And I will go through the underground streets and move to other districts."
"Yes, it is the Baron Brinel!"
This instead made him sure that the man wearing the peaked cap was not lying. After all, if he really wanted to lie, it was impossible to pick such a mastermind behind the scenes that Lumian couldn't even think of and couldn't understand at all.
Lumian frowned and asked:
"Why is he following me?"
"I don't know." The man in the peaked cap replied tremblingly, "He just asked me to follow you to see where you would go.'
Lumian thought for a few seconds and said:
"Where is Baron Brinel now?"
"If there is nothing else, he is usually at the Breeze Ballroom on Market Avenue." The man in the peaked cap tried hard to see Lumian's face clearly, but failed because the light was too weak.
Breeze Ballroom?
Lumian had a certain impression of the iconic buildings in the Candide Market area.
This is what he got from "walking around" yesterday.
Market Avenue refers to the main road from Candide Market to Sushit Steam Train Station. It is about two kilometers long. The Breeze Ballroom is near the market area. The statue at the entrance is quite distinctive, and people will never forget it when they see it.

After a while, Lumian raised the corner of his mouth and said to the follower:
"Take me there, I want to talk to Baron Brinel."
The man in the peaked cap immediately breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that his life was saved.
As for the Breeze Ballroom, who had the upper hand and who was "accidentally" had nothing to do with him.
The Breeze Ballroom is located on the bottom two floors of a khaki-colored building. The second floor is an attached cafe, and the first floor is a lively dance hall, but it has just opened at this time and there are no customers.
At its entrance stands a white spherical statue composed of countless skulls, on which it is written in Intis: "Here they are sleeping, waiting for happiness and hope to come." (Note 1)
Lumian glanced at it, followed the "leader" around the statue, and came to the entrance of the ballroom.
Standing there were two gangster thugs in white shirts and black coats. They pressed their right hands to their waists at the same time and asked the man in the peaked cap, "Missili, who is he?"
"He, he came to find Baron Brinel." Misily replied slightly stammering.
"It's up to the Baron Brinel to see me or not, not you.
"Do you want to bear his wrath?"
After a moment of hesitation, one of the thugs turned and entered the ballroom.
While waiting, Lumian said to the stalker named Missi in a relaxed state:
Why is there such a statue and such an inscription, which doesn't match the dance hall at all? "
Sure, that's cool.
Misiri glanced at Lumian with a smile on his face, and replied tremblingly: "This was originally the cemetery attached to the St. Roberts Church. Later, all the bones were moved to the catacombs, and this area became vacant. , and later, the house was repaired.
"Although those bones have been purified, otherwise they are pure ashes. But after our Sava Party bought this place, we still felt that it was too gloomy, so we had to find someone to make such a statue symbolizing death and an inscription representing the dead, to appease the underground Possibly existing skeletons that have not been exhumed and removed.
Lumian was a little funny for a moment.
At this time, the thug just now came out and said to Lumian
"Baron Brinel told you to go to the cafe on the second floor."
"Okay." Lumian walked into the Breeze Ballroom with his head held high and his chest puffed out.
What impressed him first was the dance floor surrounded by railings and the half-height wooden platform used for singing in front, followed by the messy seats around and the smell of various perfumes and powders wafting in the air.
Misiri thought for a while, but still followed Lumian.
He felt that no matter what, he had to report to the baron in person, otherwise he might end up missing in the underground world.
Going up to the second floor, Lumian saw the "gentleman" he met last night.
He is in his thirties, wearing a black formal suit made of fine tweed, his brown hair seems to be slightly curly, his brown eyes have a confident smile, and his outline is quite deep.
Baron Brinel put down the coffee, picked up the mahogany pipe with the palm of his diamond ring and said:
"What would you like to drink?"
He was quite polite and courteous.
Lumian glanced at the four gangsters who were pressing their hands to their waists at the same time, and said to Baron Brinel
"Why did you send someone to follow me?"
Baron Brinel smiled and admitted frankly:
"I met you on White Coat Street last night, and today I found you near Luanjie Street, and I think you look more and more familiar, so I asked Missi to follow and confirm what you want to do in the market area.
"You also went to Aosta last night, didn't you?"
"He wants to cheat me out of money." Lumian replied, and then asked, "Why do you think I look familiar?"
"In the eyes of experienced people like us, you can hardly be called a disguise.
"When we started to suspect and associate, we would naturally recognize you, Lumian Lee, a wanted criminal worth 3,000 Filkin."
My reward is only 3000 Felkin? Lumian's first reaction was confusion.
As the source of the time cycle of Kordu Village, how could the official reward amount be lower than that of the priest and Mrs. Pouaris?
"But you can get 500 Felkin just for providing your clues." Baron Brinel laughed, "Young man, what you need is a copy of "Men's Aesthetics". Don't be ashamed. In Trier, men make up It's a normal thing that helps you hide who you really look like."
This "gentleman" also wore eyeliner and powder.
Lumian smiled:
"Are you trying to capture me for a bounty?"
Note 1: Quoted from the inscription on the door of the Paris Breeze Ballroom in the Victorian era, I changed the statue. The ballroom was really built on the site of the cemetery, and it also used the stones left after the cemetery was relocated. It was a real tomb dance, and the previous turtle walking was also a real thing that happened in that era.
