Angelina got on the carriage angrily because Knight Angus refuted her opinion.

However, she did not scold him immediately, but waited until the carriage went far away before she started talking.

"Knight Angus, I respect you very much. But if you don't have a reasonable explanation for what happened just now, I will make you pay the price!"

Although threatened by his master, Angus was not panicked and said slowly:

"As I told you before, there is a killer on the roof, probably to assassinate Ethan."

"Of course I remember, that's why I want to take Ethan away, he can't get into trouble. At least not in front of me, he is my nominal fiancé after all." Angelina became even more angry.

"No! You haven't held the ceremony yet, he is not your fiancé yet.

And he must face the assassination independently, otherwise, he can escape today, but he may not be able to escape in the future.

The territory is thousands of times more dangerous than here. If he can't even handle it here, there is no need to go there.

Also, Miss, you are young, you should not want to bear the name of a widow!" Angus replied lightly.

"Uh!" Angelina was speechless for a while. Although she always felt something was wrong, she felt it made sense.

Finally, seeing that the other party was thinking about her, her anger subsided.

"Knight Angus, stay with me tonight!"

"I'm afraid not, I have a wife!"

Angelina's eyes widened immediately, with an unbelievable look on her face: "Why did you never mention your wife when you were with me before? Angus, you are very strange today!"

"..."

...

At this time, Ethan was still a little confused, not knowing why the knight Angus wanted to stop him.

But Ethan knew that when Angus appeared, the uninvited guest on the roof left quietly.

"It's better to leave, the unknown always makes people feel uncomfortable!"

Just when Ethan thought that the man would not come back, there was a faint sound of footsteps on the roof again.

"It seems that he is really not going to let me go!"

Ethan felt a little bitter.

Then he put on a coat, picked up his sword, opened the door, and walked out.

When he was chatting with Angelina just now, he was also thinking about how to deal with assassination.

After thinking about it, he couldn't think of a good way.

After all, there is no way to prevent thieves.

However, although there is no way to prevent thieves, at least he can find out who the thief is.

Ethan walked out of the hotel. It was not long after dark, and there were still many pedestrians on the street. He mixed in the crowd.

Of course, he didn't expect to avoid being tracked in this way, nor did he want to avoid it.

Ethan walked slowly into a bar called Disappointment near the hotel.

Bars have always been a place for night lovers. Whenever night falls, there are always countless men and women who come here to consume.

Or to have a drink to relieve a day's fatigue.

Or to catch a woman and have a night of warmth.

...

No matter what the purpose is, there are always all kinds of people mixed together, and no one cares about anyone.

When Ethan pushed the door open, the bar was already full of people. The noise was so loud that it hurt his ears and even raised the temperature.

The smell of sweat and perfume mixed together, making people nauseous.

Ethan didn't like this environment very much. He tried to find a seat to sit down despite the discomfort.

However, the seats were full at this time.

He had no choice but to go to the bench on the bar.

You need to keep ordering drinks here before you can sit down. Most people who enter the bar will not keep consuming. They can chat all day by ordering a beer, so there are still seats.

Ethan chose a position far away from the door, but he could observe the entrance and exit of the door. He ordered a few glasses of wine at random and tasted the wine by himself.

Of course, he was not really drinking. Now that the enemy was at hand, he was in no mood to drink. He was just waiting for the prey to take the bait.

Normal people, if they find that the target is lost, especially in a bar where there are many people and eyes, will definitely come in to take a look.

This is the only way Ethan can think of to know who the opponent is. As long as the other party comes in, he can confirm it by the breath.

But after waiting for a long time, although there were many people coming in and out, Ethan did not wait for the person who had the same aura as the one on the roof.

Moreover, the person he was waiting for did not come, but a young lady came instead.

The girl had big golden waves, a delicate face, and a graceful figure, especially the towering white on her chest, which kept rising and falling as her body twisted, and slowly moved to Ethan.

"Sir, why are you drinking alone here? Do you need someone to accompany you?"

Ethan turned his head and glanced at the girl, and wanted to ask her to leave.

But suddenly he saw the door behind her open, and a tall man wearing a gray windbreaker and a round-brimmed hat walked in, and he immediately changed his mind.

"Yes, it's this breath, and that man is the one on the roof!"

Ethan had already determined the target in his heart, but he did not show any abnormality. He smiled and said to the girl in front of him: "My name is Ethan!"

"It's an honor to meet you, Mr. Ethan! My name is Lili!"

"Okay! Lili. I don't need anyone to accompany me, but I want to ask you to do something for me, a small thing, and the reward is one gold coin!"

When the girl named Lili heard a gold coin, her eyes suddenly flashed, and she couldn't hide her smile and said: "Is there anything I can do for you?"

"First of all, no matter what I say, don't look back."

Seeing Lili nodded, Ethan said again: "A man just came into the bar. He was wearing a gray windbreaker and a round-brimmed hat. He was easy to recognize!

I want you to walk around casually first, then get close to him and help me confirm what weapon he was carrying?"

"That's it?" Lili was a little unbelievable.

"That's it!" Ethan replied very confidently: "Now pretend to walk away as if nothing happened. Once you have confirmed it, come to me for the bounty."

Although Lili couldn't believe it, it was so easy to earn a gold coin. But she was a socialite here and had seen many men. She could tell at a glance whether they were rich or not, trustworthy or not.

She was very sure that Ethan was definitely a nobleman who came here just to drink and relieve his worries, and he would not be short of money.

So without thinking, she immediately walked away as if nothing had happened as Ethan said.

Then she walked around slowly, walked to the man Ethan mentioned, pretended to trip, and threw herself into the man's arms, and accidentally spilled the wine on the man.

She quickly apologized to the man and took out a handkerchief to help him wipe it. After a while of busy work, the matter was finally settled.

After this incident, the man had no mood to drink and walked out of the bar cursing.

As soon as the man left, Lili asked Ethan for the reward with a happy face. Without saying a word, she stretched out a hand in front of Ethan.

Ethan was heartbroken, but he still pretended to be indifferent. He smiled, took out a gold coin and put it in her hand, and then asked, "How is it?"

Lili was not in a hurry to answer, but first confirmed the authenticity of the gold coin. After confirming that it was correct, she stuffed it into the big crack in her chest.

Then she said mysteriously, "He has no weapons on him!"

"No weapons? That's impossible!" Ethan would never believe that a killer would not carry weapons.

Not to mention killers, even a normal cultivator would definitely carry their usual weapons with them.

Just like carrying a sword with you, you would not feel at ease if you don't carry it. This is instinct and is no longer affected by your will.

"Really! I'm not lying to you. However, although he didn't bring any weapons, he carried a lot of playing cards with him. I don't know what he was going to do?" Lili added.

Ethan's face changed drastically when he heard this, and he gritted his teeth and said a few words: "Midnight Circus!"
