Chapter 205: Barnes the Thief (Sai)

"Lennie, why is your face so ugly, could it be that you already have it?" The man Lenny called Barnes was dressed in tight black, playing with a small dagger in his hand, and the most striking thing was that this man had a peculiar "one-line eyebrow", two slender and beautiful eyebrows joined together.

"Phew, you're as nasty as ever!" said Lennie, blushing.

"How can you hurt someone?" Barnes showed a hurt expression, "We haven't seen each other for so long, I didn't expect you to treat me like this!"

"Hmph, now you are willing to come out to see me, hand over the treasure you stolen!" Leni didn't seem to be fooled by this guy's performance, she had had enough of Barnes's rhetoric.

"Lenny, don't you believe me, I've never stolen your tribe's treasures!" Barnes said aggrievedly.

"Then why did you say goodbye, and we found out that the treasure had disappeared as soon as you left? I'm so blind, I shouldn't have taken you to see that treasure in the first place!" Barnes said angrily when he didn't admit that Lennie was angry.

"Lenny, this is the biggest disagreement between us, you never trusted me!" Barnes sighed and said helplessly.

"I don't trust you? I don't trust you to heal you with the tribe's secret medicine? I don't trust you to take you as a human to the tribe's holy land? I don't trust you to take you to see our tribe's secret treasures? Barnes, you're so sad and disappointed!" Lennie was visibly out of control, covering her face with her hands and letting her mace fall to the ground.

"Leni, you recall carefully, what you said was not what I asked you to do, but you took the initiative to do it, to put it mildly, these have nothing to do with me, it was you who pulled me into right and wrong. If you hadn't taken the initiative to bring me to your tribe and take me to see your tribe's secret treasure, then you wouldn't have left the matter of the missing treasure on me. Barnes' repeated emphasis on the word "active" was intended to remind Lenny that he was in fact the victim of the whole affair.

"Barnes, it's not that I doubt you, your profession is too sensitive. Lenny wiped her eyes and looked calmer, "Didn't you always show off how many things you 'borrowed' when we first met?"

Lenny uses the word "borrow" very implicitly, reminding Barnes that he has a criminal record.

"I don't deny that I have stolen many rare treasures, but that doesn't mean that my tribe's treasures are my steals, to be honest, your treasures are more symbolic than valuable, and they are of no use to me. Barnes explained bitterly, and in order to clear his suspicion, he did not hesitate to play the emotional card again, "Leni, others don't understand, don't you know me? With our relationship, how can I covet your secret treasure? Will I steal that secret treasure and put you in a disadvantageous position in the tribe?"

"Hmph, that's a nice thing to say. You're too embarrassed to mention our relationship!" said that, a gleam of joy flashed in the corner of Lennie's eyes.

Leni quickly straightened up and said, "Anyway, until you catch the real thief, you will always be the biggest suspect. If you don't want to be targeted by a Sanctuary, you'd better help me catch the real criminal!"

"Sanctuary, what do you meanβ€”" Barnes's voice trembled visibly when he heard the word Sanctuary, after all, he was just a small thief, and he had no power to resist any Sanctuary.

"Lord Leos, of course. Once the news of the Ogre Tribe's secret treasure reached his ears, he would definitely inquire about it himself. A hint of confusion flashed across Lennie's face, as she had mentioned how important the treasure was to Lord Leos when she had taken Barnes to visit the Treasure.

After hearing Leos's name, Barnes' face turned a little green. He inadvertently stole a treasure in the human world, angering a sanctuary powerhouse hidden in the imperial capital. Fortunately, he saw the opportunity quickly, found a middleman with sufficient weight to mediate, returned the treasure in time, and compensated all the savings he had stolen for many years to the powerhouse of the Holy Domain in exchange for a chance to live.

However, in order to protect his face, the powerhouse of the Sanctuary ordered Barnes not to set foot in the empire again, and Barnes was forced to sneak into the Warcraft Forest, and only then did he get acquainted with Leni by chance. If he offends Leos in the Sanctuary of the Warcraft Forest, then with the Bavarian Mountains blocking the communication between the Eastern and Western Continents, he will have to go to the Misty Sea to earn a living.

Like Leni, Barnes is a landlubber, so having him become a pirate is tantamount to feeding sharks.

"Lenny, do you have any clues? We must get the treasure back before Lord Leos gets the news!" Barnes immediately became energetic when it came to his own safety.

"There's no clue, in fact our entire clan agrees that you're the thief. Lenny said as she stared into Barnes' eyes, trying to find a flaw in his eyes.

"Were there any strange people who showed up or left before the Treasure went missing?" Barnes prompted.

"Yes!" replied Lenny without thinking, "that person is you!"

"I'll go~ How many times are you going to let me say that I didn't steal your secret treasure. Barnes rolled his eyes anxiously, still suspicious of him for a long time, "Think about whether anyone has left the tribe in those days, or has behaved strangely." ”

"By the way, Iero has been away for a few days since you left our tribe. But it can't be Arrow!" If a new object of suspicion can be found, Leni is not willing to suspect Barnes. She remembered that shortly after Barnes left, Arrow had disappeared for a few days. Could it be Arrow? It can't be, there's no way that guy with a brain can't have the consciousness to steal the treasure.

"Why can't it be Arrow? I remember that your treasure is very well guarded, and if it wasn't for your own people guarding and stealing it, who could steal it without even knowing it?" Barnes said to Lenny seriously.

"You!" said Lennie angrily, "didn't you say that you once entered the vault of Rey III and took a treasure from it?

I'm going~ Barnes felt a pang of sadness, and he couldn't think that what he had boasted about in order to curry favor with Lenny at the moment had now become the strongest evidence that he was in a disadvantageous position. Barnes wanted to smack himself in both mouths. No wonder some people have said that he will lose in this rotten mouth if he loses in his life.
