Chapter 416: Excellent News

Erina always felt that there was something wrong with what Nao said.

After all, sharks and fish are inherently different.

All in all, she felt that it was useless to think about it now.

We still have to investigate the news tomorrow before we can formulate an action plan based on the clues we get.

So, tonight she finished her prayers, and she and Nao went to bed early.

She has been going to bed early for half a year, and she has become completely accustomed to this routine.

Although she still missed games and animation, it couldn't compare to how much she missed Yoshiyuki.

...and worries about the world.

She didn't know if the strange dream syndrome had been suppressed.

I don’t know if my prayer here can be received by Lady Erika.

But considering their current situation, worrying about this kind of thing is still a bit too extravagant.

Erina had a dream.

In the dream, I was lying on a giant dumpling with wings, flying in the sky.

The surrounding sky and air are filled with such flying dumplings.

In the distance, there are figures of dancing dumplings on countless floating islands, large and small.

Such a beautiful dream made her reluctant to leave even after waking up.

She hoped that when she opened her eyes, she would be surrounded by dumplings.

Or, just find out that this is one long nightmare. In fact, she was not separated from everyone at all, and was still lying on the bed at home.

...But either way, it's impossible.

After Erina woke up, she couldn't help but feel a little dazed as she looked at the dust slowly destroying the ceiling in front of her.

She didn't feel lost.

I just feel that the ceiling is so old that it will completely collapse if it is hit even slightly.

She and Nao were covered with a thin sheet.

And a thick blanket to keep her going through the winter. In this lukewarm weather, if you put it on your body, it will soon become so hot that you will twist back and forth in pain.

Nao Nishida is not awake yet.

Her animal ears stuck out of the pillow. They seemed very quiet at the moment, but if she touched them with her hands, they would immediately start shaking.

Erina looked at the two pink rabbit ears and wanted to reach out and pinch them or take a bite.

But she didn't do that. She just used magic to fly the mouse out of the bed, turned around, hugged Tuanzi and continued to sleep for a while.

After finishing breakfast, that is, after heating up and eating the leftovers from last night, Erina and the two separated for a while to inquire about the news.

The wanted posters posted everywhere really frightened Erina.

Every time she saw them, she had to resist the urge to pull her hood lower to avoid suspicion.

The human heart is very strange.

The more you remind yourself in your mind not to do things that will attract attention, the more counterproductive it will be.

On the contrary, the performance will become unnatural and attract some unnecessary attention.

...Of course, that might just be Erina's psychological effect.

Because she was nervous, she began to feel that someone was always looking at her.

At this time, Erina couldn't help but wonder whether her full face had been seen and whether it looked too strange to always lower her head.

She seemed even more nervous when there were guards passing by nearby.

He can't help but constantly think about whether the guards have noticed him, and therefore feels that every guard is looking here with suspicion.

Fortunately, the hood does a good job of hiding his expression. This somewhat reassured her.

Otherwise you will really be overwhelmed by the pressure of fantasy.

Calm down, Erina!

She said to herself.

No one notices you anymore, don’t think too much about it…the more you think about it, the easier it will be to actually get noticed!

Under the pressure of always feeling that she had been discovered, Erina tried her best to avoid all bounty notices and avoid crowds and roads. At the same time, wherever you go, you are watching to see if there is an escape route you can exploit. This ensures that you can escape immediately if attacked.

However, after acting like this for a while, Erina began to feel that this was not the best choice.

To avoid the guards and the crowd looking at the bounty, that's for sure.

It is also correct to take more trails.

But avoiding the crowd all the time doesn’t seem to be the best option.

Acting like ordinary people and blending in with people who don't know each other seems to be the best option.

This is not to say that the most dangerous place is the safest place.

But when a group of strangers walk together, it is not easy to pay attention to what the people around them look like.

If I blend in among these people and move at the same pace as them, it will be even less likely for the passing guards to notice anything strange.

Because Erina was nervous and always worried that the other party would find out that she was a wanted criminal, she didn't take the initiative to ask others. I just leaned over and eavesdropped when some people were talking about topics worth caring about. Therefore, not much useful information was obtained this morning.

But fortunately, Nao performed very well.

After the two reunited safely in the hideout at noon, the rabbit-eared girl brought information worth investigating.

That is, on the night of the carnival, a nobleman wanted to deliver a speech at the float parade. Immediately afterwards, he will leave the city and go to a town to meet his wife who has returned to her parents' home after a dispute. He will spend the festive night with relatives there and try to bring his wife back.

In order to make his wife, mother-in-law and others forgive him, the nobleman would not go empty-handed and would definitely bring many gifts.

Especially since this nobleman is very rich and very honorable, he might have at least two carriages responsible for carrying gifts. After all, he is a guy who pursues high standards in everything. It would be too ordinary to have only one carriage of gifts.

This was perfect news to slip into his carriage and drive away together. However, because the person who disclosed the information was a drunken hooligan, we cannot be sure that the information is true, and we need to investigate further.

The information fee is only the price of a bottle of whiskey.

It's very cheap.

Moreover, Nao stole the money back after asking for information.

It is an example of a white wolf with empty gloves.

"Erina-chan, you also heard about it, didn't you? The climax of the carnival is at night. In order to ensure that the carnival parties in the city can be held safely, the guards will send a large number of manpower to the places where the crowd gathers." Nao Nishida smiled. He said: "Then, even if we are discovered while passing the security check on the carriage, we can definitely break through by force. There is a ready-made carriage that can be driven, and it is also convenient to get rid of the pursuers!"
