It is not difficult to string together the confessions of several children. In their impression, Thales was originally the hero who defeated Quaid. Thales made up an excuse and lied to them that Yara would arrange everything, no matter who came.

If you ask, you will all die because "Tales stabbed Quaid's neck from behind", so that after the limelight is over, they will be safe.

"They can't catch me." Thales said with a smile.

As four- and eight-year-old children, Coria and Ryan had little doubt. In their eyes, Thales was always omnipotent.

Only Cinti was a little confused when Thales left, but the time traveler managed to make him abide by the agreement of "you think about it, I will do it".

Then, it's time to hit the road - bah bah - it's time to set off.

As he waved to the children nonchalantly and stepped out of the back door of the Sunset Bar, Thales felt that there was still a trace of tragedy in his heart.

I can no longer take care of you, children.

I hope I have good luck and see you in the future.

What a heavy farewell.

After all, I can be considered as standing up for myself, and I am quite a bit nervous - eh?

Thales's eyes widened as he looked at the expressionless Yara, swinging her slender legs and passing him fully armed from behind.

"Hey! Aren't you supposed to stay in the bar and take care of the three of them? Without you, they-"

"Don't worry, I hid them in the dark room and left a note for Edmund."

Yara, who was wearing dark gray tights, pulled off a transparent windshield goggle from her forehead and put it on her face. Then she pressed Thales' shoulders with an unhappy look on her face and squatted down next to him.

"But--"

"No but! Kid!" Yara interrupted him without any doubt.

"Since you decided to take the wrath of the Roda family by yourself, and then go to Hongfang Street to seek death, then I should at least give you a ride - for this sake."

Yara patted the wolf's leg knife on her boots.

"Moreover, the secret sentry set up by the Brotherhood in the

Thales stared at Yara stupidly, and then managed to squeeze out a sentence for a second:

“But there’s a war going on in Hongfang Street——”

"Stop wasting time, come up, let's go!"

Yara had no more nonsense and didn't bother to explain. Her arrogant expression forced Thales's hesitation back to the depths of his brain.

Just, come up? Where?

Thales looked at Yara who was kneeling on one knee. This short-haired and sassy sister, under the tight-fitting action suit, made her already hot figure look even more well-proportioned. Her front breasts were even more - ahem - if

If he was sitting on her arm and clinging to her neck, wouldn't that be like this - thinking of this, the time traveler lowered his head in embarrassment and touched his head.

"Boom!"

"Ah! It hurts!"

Yara pointed another fierce finger at the center of Thales' forehead, which shocked his world view!

As if she had read through Thales's thoughts, Yara half-pulled out the wolf-leg knife fiercely, a "I'm not easy to mess with" look shot out from behind the goggles, and said fiercely:

"You brat! Stop thinking about those messy things and lie on my back! I'll carry you!"

——————————————————

The moon is gradually setting in the west, but the sky has not yet become bright.

But this light was still as bright as day to Ridmore.

"Keep your post, most of the elites went to Hongfang Street today, so you sir are holding on to us even tighter - ours is the last intersection to Hongfang Street."

It was also the first intersection that the Brotherhood retreat passed through, Redmore thought silently.

As a professional secret sentry, Redmore hid his body behind the corner of a dark alley. From his angle, he could clearly see the outline of an intersection leading to Hongfang Street, but tonight's curfew made the place deserted.

His companion, another brotherhood sentry, was behind him, watching the other corner with the same vigilance.

"No problem, I'm in perfect condition. Not even a black fly can fly over, nor a gray earthworm can crawl over." My companion said solemnly.

"Very good, my alert period is coming soon. I will go directly to the shift later and replace Nasri - he should have woken up an hour ago."

Ridmore nodded to his companions, remained vigilant and observed, and left from the hidden alley.

The moment he left, he was suddenly startled.

Just now, he seemed to feel something in the empty alley opposite.

No, it's impossible. His ears, eyes, and nose have all been trained by Lord Lancer, and he can even recognize special abilities such as color change and refraction. If there is an intruder, as long as it is not a rare comprehensive ability (such as mental influence),

There is no way to escape his sight and hearing.

But he still decided to go and have a look.

I didn't feel relieved until Redmore came back from his inspection tour on the opposite side.

Probably the warning period has passed and an illusion has occurred.

He shook his head and went back to change his shift.

Behind Redmore, a short-haired woman wearing a black tights walked out gently, with a child lying behind her.

She looked at Redmore's back, then leaned down, tapped her toes, and quietly but quickly jumped out of the alley in the direction of Hongfang Street.

Naturally, they were Yara, the female bartender who was heading to Red Square Street, and Thales, the fugitive beggar.

"When dawn has not yet come and the long night has not ended, ordinary people's defense and nerves are the most relaxed. Even an ordinary graduate of Wangli Military Academy knows this."

For some reason, Yara was still able to speak while running fast.

Thales clung to Yara's back, and the latter shuttled through the alleys at an unprecedented speed. She was moving as fast as the wind, but she landed silently.

The wind blowing in front of him forced Thales, who was clinging to Yara's neck, to close his eyes tightly and press his head on the back of Yara's neck. His nose was full of Yara's body fragrance, and he had no idea where he was.

But Yara's voice still reached his ears very clearly.

"So one of the six giants responsible for intelligence collection of the Brotherhood, Corbion Lancer, the 'Sleepless Eye', trained a special secret sentry force, the 'Sleepless Ones'."

"It's not that they don't sleep, it's just that their schedules are different from ordinary people."

"I don't know the specific number of them, but all of them have staggered work and rest schedules, from dusk and night, to morning and evening, to noon and morning, at any time. So Lancer's team of secret sentries,

It can work in shifts to ensure that every secret sentry on duty is in the period of work and rest when they are most energetic and alert, which Lancer calls the 'alert period'."

"From senses to experience, cooperation to tracking, Lancer has trained them better than the purebred Rudo police dogs of the Police Department."

"They have a detachment that is responsible for stationing the headquarters. During the day, they blend into the crowd in disguise. At night, they turn into secret sentries to monitor all key entrances and exits in the XC area."

"The two people we passed just now should be the last post of the 'Sleepless Man' in front of Hongfang Street."

Thales said nothing.

He had been shocked by Yara's stealth skills.

Ridmore was not the first Sleepless Man they had passed.

Every time Yara jumped to the Sleepless Man's post, she would change from a fast running state to a slow walk. The most surprising thing to Thales also happened at this time. Yara's actions would enter an extremely strange rhythm. She

Quietly sneaking behind the sleepless person, hiding the shadow and body in the blind spot of the sleepless person's vision (sometimes the blind spot of two sleepless people) - and all the sleepless people are unaware of them.

What Thales didn't know was that Yara was also surprised by his performance. From beginning to end, even if he was following a sleepless person, even if the other party could see them as soon as he turned his head, Thales was still

He remained motionless, his heartbeat was steady, and even his breathing remained steady.

Considering the control power of a seven-year-old boy, this is obviously a bit too good.

Of course, if Yara hadn't used the strange rhythm of her movements to cover up Thales' breathing sound just right, his breathing that he thought was 'insignificant' would have been heard long ago.

But it's not easy either.

This child is indeed no ordinary person. Is it a superpower or a bloodline? Or both?

It can't be natural, right?

Thales's original plan was to let Yara lure away these secret whistles (this was the first time Thales had heard about these 'Sleepless Ones', and his previous estimate of the Brotherhood was still too shallow), and he had to risk a certain amount of money.

The risk of exposure. Now it seems that I underestimated this female bartender. She is not only agile and can use a knife.

"arrive."

In a corner next to the intersection, Thales slid down (reluctantly?) Yara's back gently.

In front of him was Hongfang Street in the night. He still vividly remembered the scene where he met the velvet noblewoman here a few days ago.

The area and volume of Hongfang Street are no smaller than that of Black Street. As the name suggests, it is a famous place for fun and entertainment in the Western District. In fact, many nobles, ranging from the dignified Duke who visited Yongxing City to Yongxing City

A certain unattractive country lord outside the star suburbs will also come here incognito or blatantly, and have some voluntary or involuntary super-friendship relationships with some cute and confused girls or boys.

, of course, this is the tacit understanding with the Yongxing City nobles and the Blood Bottle Gang for many years.

Tonight, the Black Street Brotherhood reaches out here.

Unfortunately, what greeted this hand was a sinister trap.

"The situation is not good." Yara whispered.
