Chapter 429: Thoughts on the Carriage

"What's the matter, Miss Maekawa?" The client sitting opposite him noticed Yoshiyuki's strange behavior and took the initiative to chat: "Are you feeling unwell?"

"Not really." Yi Xing prevaricated: "I just feel that the task I took on is really worrying...it is full of too many unknown factors, isn't it?"

"That's true. But is this why we invited you here? Miss Maekawa is not only extremely powerful, but also has extraordinary courage. This is very crucial. Most people simply don't dare to take on such a task."

"Hmm..." Yoshiyuki nodded, and then asked about the situation in the mine: "Then let me ask more about these underground shadows."

Yoshiyuki asked many questions about the mine.

However, the boss gave ambiguous answers to many questions.

He responded to many questions with something like "I can't remember clearly." Or I just can’t answer a very specific situation.

For example, ask him who sold him this mine. He replied that he bought it from a friend.

When he asked his friend again who he was, although the other party did not show any wavering and answered that Mr. Joseph had sold it to him, his answer was not so timely.

Moreover, after answering this question, the client claimed that it had nothing to do with the task and there was no need to delve deeper.

Yi Xing gradually became suspicious.

He began to associate the client's performance with the strange behavior of the maids.

This made him increasingly uneasy.

after all……

All this seems to indicate that there is something wrong with the client.

The maids seemed to know the inside story. I don't want to tell him because I can't reveal my master's secret.

If you think about it further, even the person in charge of the mercenary guild has a problem!

After all, he introduced this job.

Now think about it... He has only been in Seagull Harbor not long ago.

I thought that the president noticed him because he completed the mission of delivering messages through the nightmare erosion zone. But if we think about it now, wouldn’t we be able to draw another conclusion?

That is... the president did not notice him because of this at all, but was entrusted by someone to help harm him, and then introduced him to this task as a middleman!

Thinking of this, Yi Xing couldn't help but feel a chill in his back.

While pretending to look at the scenery, he used the corner of his eye to observe the client who was looking at the window on the other side.

This guy's image seemed more and more perverted in his eyes.

Although it may be the psychological effect of "if you hate someone, you will find that person hates everything they do"...

But the client's demeanor, now seems to be quite murderous!

Although there is always a slight smile on his face, it is probably just a fake smile deliberately put on.

In fact, it is very likely that he is thinking about some very perverted thoughts while wearing a hypocritical smile!

If he wanted to harm me, what was his purpose? !

Yoshiyuki's first reaction was whether the client was attracted by his beauty.

After all, this guy completely mistook him for a woman.

Moreover, judging by female standards, he is quite good-looking.

The only two shortcomings are that she is too tall and dresses too masculinely. But the latter can be changed, and some people like the former.

so……

Could it be that this guy wants to trick me into going underground and then lock me up? !

Yi Xing couldn't help but frowned.

Tsk.

Is he actually a dangerous person with such a hobby? !

How dark a person must be to think of such a method!

Wait, something's wrong.

...Does he actually know that I am a man?

Even if you know, do you still do it?

As Yoshiyuki thought about it, he felt the fear in his heart getting stronger.

He began to look at the client with a perverted look.

But, is this guy really a pervert?

Would a pervert go to such great lengths to trick me into traveling so far away to do it again?

If that's the only purpose, wouldn't it be better to do it in the villa?

Could it be that you think I'm very strong and you're afraid that I won't be able to defeat you, so you want to trick me into sleeping during the long journey and then attack me on the way?

It seems that there is no way to sleep on this journey! Just be very vigilant!

Because he only slept three or four hours a day for many years, Yi Xing had a very high tolerance for sleepiness.

After confirming that he couldn't fall asleep, Yoshiyuki pretended not to notice anything on the surface, but he was muttering in his heart.

He was thinking about why the client wanted to harm him if he didn't like him.

First, he eliminated the idea that anyone had a grudge against him.

Since coming to Jiuyuan Township, he has not offended anyone.

He could only think of a group of enemies that could not exist at all - the relatives and friends of the orc robbers he killed.

This is really outrageous. They are just a few gangsters who robbed the road. They wouldn't bribe such a rich man to harm me, right?

So we can rule out the possibility that someone hates me enough to hire someone to kill me.

So what else could it be?

...Want to steal money?

Although I don’t have any cash on me...

But this daughter's demon sword is a treasure.

No matter where it is, as long as anyone who sees it knows the goods, they will regard it as a sword that is priceless and cannot be exchanged for a thousand pieces of gold.

Therefore, it is completely understandable for someone to carry out a conspiracy because they want to take this demon sword as their own.

So which one is more likely?

If the client really wants to harm me, does he want my body or my knife?

Yoshiyuki fell into thinking.

Ultimately the conclusion is that this guy probably wants it all.

Yoshiyuki decided to use this as a premise to start his subsequent thinking.

That is, in what ways might the other party harm him?

Also, how should I counterattack then?

…

Will you take action after entering the mine?

Or do you want to take advantage of me and attack directly?

Yoshiyuki feels that the former is more likely.

Because the opponent may be wary of his force and worry that he will not be able to win even with a sneak attack.

After all, a person who is strong enough is still on guard against the surrounding environment even in his sleep.

If the enemy is preparing to attack, he may wake up as he approaches.

Therefore, if you want to rely on a simple sneak attack, it will be difficult to succeed.

unless……

They're going to drug you.

Yi Xing felt that this aspect must be considered.

However, this is something that is difficult to completely prevent.

After all, some poisons are almost colorless and odorless. Directly refusing to eat all the food provided by the other party will arouse the enemy's vigilance and let them know that they are suspected. In this way, there is no way to use tricks to crack the opponent's conspiracy.

The spiritual power of Yi Xing and the extraordinary physical constitution can help resist toxins.

But after all, he does not have as strong a toxin antibody as Xuekifumaru, so after being drugged with strong drugs, his combat effectiveness will be weakened and his body will be very uncomfortable.

Once besieged in this state, there is no guarantee of victory.
