Wei Hong.

She was still in the same outfit as in the tavern, a black leather coat, but she rolled up her sleeves to reveal the leather case on her arm.

Hidden there is a thin murder knife.

This girl did not wear a headscarf like other traders traveling through the desert, but her short hair, which was almost shoulder length, was tied back hastily.

This also caused Wei Hong's hair to be filled with dust, and she was stroking it frantically as soon as she entered the door.

Gravel was scattered all over the ground.

"No matter how big or small, whether in the regiment or in the tavern, I am your boss."

The middle-aged boss put down the work at hand and sighed helplessly.

He was wearing a linen jacket with a simple leather strap running diagonally across it.

This is a replica of the uniform of the merchant guild. Even if merchant bosses from all over the world have not joined this transcontinental guild, they are willing to imitate their dress, which can reduce a lot of trouble.

——Sometimes it also causes more trouble.

This middle-aged man looks like an ordinary businessman.

He is Leiber.

The general contact person of the Lang Ninja Group at the hub.

Lei Bai shook his head: "Don't pay attention to your image. You are the face of our 'Xizhen'."

"How dare you mention this!" Wei Hong sat across from Lei Bai angrily and picked up the things he had been playing with before.

"Made another one. This one was also sold to Union City?"

It's a shooting crossbow. It's the same shape as the one Lu Meng got. It's just that it's been carefully polished and maintained with grease, making it much newer.

"This one is not for sale to nobles." Lei Bai took out another crossbow from the counter and handed it to Wei Hong, "This one is."

The handle is made of fine paulownia wood, and the cross-section pattern exudes beauty. The polished metal component is also engraved with a series of inscriptions written in cursive script.

It was obviously a weapon on the battlefield, but it exuded a sense of elegance and luxury.

But Wei Hong looked disgusted when she saw it:

"It's even more useless than the last one. Can it kill anyone? This crossbow is obviously better."

"You don't understand, they just like this style. It is said that it has become a fashion in the small circle of nobles." Lei Bai took the crossbow from Wei Hong and said calmly:

“Besides, it’s best if you can’t kill anyone.

“This way, fewer slaves and civilians will die at their hands.

"And one day, when these two crossbows are fired at each other...

"We will be the ones who survive."

There was actually a hint of piety in his expression as he stroked the crossbow.

"In addition to the Holy Kingdom, is it possible that the United City can also become our enemy?" Wei Hong sighed: "I thought you liked those nobles very much and always liked to do business with them, even pretending to be a businessman yourself."

Leiber disagreed: "United City and the Holy Kingdom have always been hostile, which can be exploited, but those nobles and the priests of Oakland are essentially the same thing..."

He stared at Wei Hong:

"To get down to business, I came to you because of the person you reported to me last time."

"Oh?" Wei Hong became interested, "Tell me what his background is."

Not only was the headquarters messenger able to escape from Rebirth Town, he even went south alone after joining the Wave Ninja Regiment. During this period, he passed through countless checkpoints in the Holy Kingdom and escaped the pursuit of many Paladins. He also had an old relationship with Senior Inquisitor Seta. The dogs battled wits and courage...and finally came to the hub to perform their mission.

Even if you don't have personal experience, you can still imagine the dangers and legends involved just by listening to the man talk about it.

She is always full of curiosity and admiration for such heroic seniors in the regiment.

Wei Hong suddenly frowned: "If he is performing a secret mission, it's not convenient to tell him."

"I am also someone who knows how to organize and discipline..."

"Ahem." Leiber was forced to cough twice, interrupting her train of thought.

"That's the problem." His face became serious:

"Moll personally replied to me, saying that there is no such person named 'Lu Beiyou' in the Lang Ninja Group."

Maul is the leader and organizer of the Lang Ninja Group, and only she can see the roster of all members.

"What? This is impossible!" Wei Hong's face changed and she said loudly: "Lu Bei said he knows Pia, Xiaodao and Digna...the characteristics he mentioned are all correct!"

There were even some little secrets that Wei Hong was gossiping about in the tavern at that time.

"That's the key." There was an uncontrollable wave in Lei Bai's calm tone, "This Lu Beiyou knows them, but they don't know Lu Beiyou!"

"..."

Wei Hong opened her mouth, but no sound came out.

There was silence in the stone house for a while, and the only thing that could be heard was the whistling of the wind outside the window.

"This is very dangerous." Finally, Wei Hong uttered these words and took a hard breath.

She realized the seriousness of the problem.

"That's right, he knows our stronghold at the hub, knows the secret code for our communication... and more importantly, he knows our personnel roster."

Lei Bai's face was covered with a haze: "Once this information is leaked, the blow to the Lang Ninja Group will be devastating!"

"How did he know..."

Wei Hong felt scared when she thought that the man dressed as a scavenger had secrets that could destroy the organization.

There was an inexplicable feeling of annoyance.

How dare that bitch man lie to me!

Fortunately, I didn't reveal any more secrets about the Lang Ninja Group at that time.

Because I was drunk and listened to Lu Bei’s lobbying...

Wait, then why did he expose this?

When Wei Hong thought of this, she immediately raised her head and met Lei Bai's eyes.

The man nodded: "This is also something I can't understand. If he is a lackey of the Holy Kingdom, he doesn't need to show up in front of us at all."

As for taking a long-term view to catch big fish?

Based on the information Lu Beiyou has, as long as it is leaked to the Holy Kingdom, the entire Lang Ninja Group can be uprooted immediately!

You'll be spoiled for choice with all the fry.

And he himself will surely be appreciated by the contemporary Holy Lord, and he will use the blood of countless people in the Lang Ninja Group as merit and become a judge.

According to Wei Hong’s description, this journey to the north is still very young.

That's simply a promising future.

But he didn't do that.

Why?

"Maybe he was trapped in the hub and couldn't escape?" After the information became clear, Wei Hong immediately contacted the medical module that Lu Beiyou asked for from her at that time.

"He may have been injured."

Wei Hong originally wanted to say, "His companion may have been injured," but when she thought of the man's lies, she couldn't help but change her mind so as not to expose her intelligence again.

"If he is from the Holy Kingdom, he can actually seek help from Fangshi."

"Fangshi?" Wei Hong was shocked again, "When did Fangshi become a lackey of the Holy Kingdom?"

Fangshi occupies the hub station, so it should be a thorn in the side of the Holy Kingdom.

"There is no definite evidence, but the attitude of the supervisors is indeed very ambiguous." Lei Bai said carefully, "But if the Holy Kingdom relents, the city will not be stingy in repaying the 'goodwill'."

After all, other than the Lang Ninja Group, who would be willing to provoke an empire from a small force like this?

"One more problem."

"Well, but I don't trust these blood-sucking flies in the first place." Leiber said, "From this point of view, the good news is that there may not be a large enough organization behind this Lubei Tour, and it is very likely that Still at the hub.”

"Did he come to see you during this period?"

"No, it only happened once." Wei Hong frowned.

She remembered that she had been looking forward to it these days.

Fortunately he didn't come, otherwise it would have been even more embarrassing.

"As I thought, it seems that he is indeed a smart man." Lei Bai nodded, "Such a strategy can only work once."

Wei Hong stared at him.

Do you mean to say that I am stupid?

Leiber spread his hands: "At least if it were me, I wouldn't let him succeed a second time."
