Chapter 878: The City at Night
This guy who escaped into the lake is very watery.
By the time Ronald and the others re-docked in the boat, the trail that Costadt had tracked had spread a long distance through the lake, a full third of the length of Falls City.
If they were still investigating the situation at the previous first scene, it would be impossible to find any trace of each other.
The end result will only be like Nicole in the afternoon.
In desperation, I just returned to the hotel.
……
Following the trail, the Ronald trio jumped from the boat back to the ground in Waterfall. It's just that before continuing the pursuit, Kostadt cast his inquiring gaze in advance:
"Sir, there is a question."
"Let's keep chasing, and we may run into the ordinary citizens of Waterfall."
“……”
Hearing Kostadt's inquiry, Ronald lowered his head and pondered for a few seconds.
Even though the secrecy of the spell no longer exists.
But Kostadt knows Ronald's character, so he still has to ask about it. Now the crux of the matter is whether Ronald wants ordinary people to see what the three of them are tracking.
By the time the trip began, it was already dark.
At this moment, time naturally enters the night.
It's just that Kostadt's spell to manipulate water bodies basically doesn't have any concealment.
Even if there are very few pedestrians on the streets.
The three of them just went out into the streets, and they were found to be almost 100 percent of the way.
In the end, Ronald made a bold decision:
"Keep chasing, there's no reason for us to give up here"
"But keep the movement as small as possible, so that you don't get noticed."
Ronald decided to say it.
There was a hint of gratitude in Nicole's eyes beside her.
Naturally, the maid didn't express any opinions, but continued to manipulate her spells and began the follow-up tracking process.
However, taking into account Ronald's orders.
Kostadt also made subsequent improvements to his spells.
Rather than keeping the current as a complete replica of the human form, she dispersed most of the current as soon as she walked into the street, instead just looking for the footprints of the other person on the ground and tracking them.
At night, the streets of Waterfall are sparsely populated.
The people of Entrod are not fools either.
In recent days, many forces have been fighting openly and secretly in the city, and there have even been major incidents that directly destroy a city. In such a situation, no one with a little brain would choose to haunt the streets in the dark of night.
So compared to the last time Ronald took a night walk in Waterfall.
At this time, in Waterfall City, except for the patrolling military police and military personnel, only a small number of citizens who really have urgent matters to deal with, or spellcasters, will walk on the streets at night.
"You guys!"
"At night in Waterfall City, unauthorized personnel are now not allowed to cast spells in the city!"
It's really whatever you say.
Not long after Ronald and the others followed the trail, several men in thick plush coats stopped in front of them, and then pointed at Kostadt's spells:
"And it's such a visible mark."
"Little girl, do you know that you have made a big mistake......
Following the trail of the spell, one of them naturally set his eyes on Kostadt.
Just after seeing the quiet and beautiful face of the maid in front of him.
The guy's voice immediately lowered:
"Brothers, we seem to have met a big fish......
"Shut up for me!"
The guy apparently had some extra thoughts, but when he tried to give advice to the others, the leader of the group stopped him from doing anything:
The reason is simple –
Because unlike this short-sighted subordinate, their team leader immediately set his sights on the only man among the three - Ronald after seeing Kostadt.
That's the intelligence I saw a month ago.
But with his own caution, the team leader still recalled from this trace of familiarity what the face really meant.
"Excuse me...... Are you Mr. Ronald Adler? ”
Ronald generously nodded and admitted:
"Yes, I am."
"We're following the trail of a dangerous guy right now, and if there's nothing extra, get out of the way."
Ronald's polite way of talking made the team leader breathe a sigh of relief.
Although I don't know why this powerful original canon holder appeared on the streets under his jurisdiction. But he now understands that sending the other side out of the jurisdiction as soon as possible is the best solution.
Even if the other party has no malicious intent.
But a strong person of this level, once something happens to him and then gets involved in it, it is not something that a person of his level can deal with.
"Mr. Ronald, you and your female companion are free to do as you please."
"If necessary, we can also help you as much as we can if it is reasonable and legal."
With a few polite words, the man pulled his men and made way for Ronald and them.
During this period, Ronald also looked at each other's expressions.
Although he politely said things like "I can help some", this guy's actual attitude is honestly expressing the meaning of "you guys hurry up".
It may be out of awe of the strong, or it may be that the recent situation in Waterfall City is exhausting.
Anyway, they really don't want to get involved in any trouble.
"Hehe......"
Ronald chuckled softly, and replied in accordance with the other party's wishes:
"No, the tracking on our side is going well."
"Kostadt, go on."
……
After a small hiccup, the Ronald trio once again use Kostadt's spell to start tracking.
It's just that after being cross-examined by those people just now.
The official forces on the Entrode side of this street also quickly received information, and the activities of the Ronald and the three were immediately monitored, and they were not disturbed to any extent.
Just a quarter of an hour passed......
The two waterstreaked footprints controlled by Kostadt's spell finally stopped at the door of a building.
It's just a two-story hut that can be found everywhere in Waterfall.
The only thing that characterizes the hut is a flag-like sign hanging at the door of the hut, with the texture of a tree carved into it.
"It's a doctor's mark." Seeing the sign on the house in front of her, Nicole immediately reminded in a whisper, "The doctors here in Entrode seem to prefer to use plants and trees as medicine to treat diseases, so they are also used to using such patterns to indicate their profession. ”
"I see......"
Ronald nodded his head in gratitude to Nicole, then stepped forward and knocked on the door.
Bang Bang
"Excuse me, is anyone there?"
