My Adventure Diary of Reincarnating as a Bad Woman

Chapter 272 Visitors from Shihuo Town

After Ice Dragonfly and Noita finished their dinner together, they left calmly in the twilight. Noita pinched the ice crystal and thought about how to deal with the ice flakes formed by the Fountain of Youth.

Five hundred years of youth are also extremely precious years for extraordinary people.

What's more, the Fountain of Youth has more than just the effect of prolonging life. It has many other magical uses. It can be incorporated into any kind of magic potion to prolong the duration of the effect, and it can also make the mortals forget death and return to the mortal world.

The Ice Dragonfly obviously knew what it was, but still stuffed it into his hand.

If that drop of the fountain of youth was a reward for saving my life, then what was this ice crystal?

My indenture?

Noita couldn't help but laugh.

After thinking for a long time, he couldn't figure out what to do with the ice chip, so Noita put it back around his neck and left the box immediately.

Ice Dragonfly walked very fast, and for a while only her back could be seen in the crowd.

The lights of the town overflowed, and the soft glow escaped from the crystal stones on the top of the street lamps to the eaves of the houses. It was neither dazzling nor dim, just enough to illuminate an area.

Noita put on her coat and, like every little girl of her age, went shopping alone, picking out beautiful dresses from roadside shops, taking a rare moment to relax.

About half an hour later, Noita bought a few cyan skirts and tops, as well as a purple scarf according to her preferences.

As she generously donated a rosary, a surprised call came from behind her.

"Loshivia?"

Fei Xin was resting in the town when she accidentally smelled a familiar scent. She followed the scent and found out it was Noita.

Noita glanced back and saw Fei Xin in casual clothes. She was wearing a beige coat and holding a bag of snacks in her hand. She looked like a girl who met a friend by chance on a street full of strangers, her eyes filled with surprise.

But Noita didn't understand why she was so happy to see her, because the identity symbolized by this appearance was just a chance encounter with her.

Noita pretended not to remember Feixin and tried hard to recall for a long time before calling out her name before Feixin became embarrassed.

"Are you Ms. Feixin? Hmm, so you guys have a day off too?"

Noita's eyes fell on the bag of snacks that Feixin was holding, and she was as surprised as if she saw a cookie box filled with liquid chocolate.

The "you" she was referring to were Shadow of the Quiet Forest.

Fei Xin looked at Noita with joy, her nose moving slightly. The sweet orchid scent that she once smelled in the interrogation room of the camp was almost gone from her breath, replaced by another slightly intoxicating fragrance.

Fei Xin can now be sure that she has not been assimilated by Hong Rong.

This is a good thing.

Jade Heart approached Noita and said, "We are not made of iron. We still have free time to rest. However, I was transferred from my post because of a mistake. Now I work in the Silver Peak Lair."

After paying the money, Noita naturally walked up to Fei Xin and made an invitation.

"So Ms. Feixin changed jobs, but judging from your current appearance, you are on vacation, right? Do you want to go to the night market?"

"It's impossible."

Fei Xin happily joined them and wandered around the night market.

On the way, Noita casually asked, "Since Feixin is no longer working at Quiet Forest Shadow, where is she currently working?"

"I'm currently assigned to the Zeal Guard," Fei Xin said helplessly. "Originally, I was supposed to be in charge of the security of Silver Peak's Lair Town, but something unexpected happened and I was given a long vacation."

“Paid vacation?”

"Yes."

Noita said enviously, "I'm so envious. Ms. Feixin is lucky. Unlike me, I'm not only busy with work, but I also work hard for a long time and still can't afford the rare items I want. Putting that aside, since the guards have given you a long vacation, what are you doing back now?"

Fei Xin smiled.

"I felt bad, so I often came back to buy gifts for my colleagues."

Feixin shook her fingers, and the snack bag hooked on her fingers also shook.

"I see, Fei Xin is a very kind girl. But it's more embarrassing for colleagues when someone like Fei Xin keeps hanging around in front of them. After all, people hate comparisons. When colleagues think about how hard they're working, and you keep showing up, they realize you're resting..."

Noita didn't finish her words, but Fei Xin understood what she meant.

"It's not like what Viya said. Even if I don't have a vacation, I usually just stay at the base. Going on patrol with them is just wishful thinking on my part. It's better to say that my colleagues will be more relaxed without me."

"Ah, let's not talk about me, let's talk about you. What kind of work has Wei Ya been doing during this period?"

"I was hunting in the dreamland, looking for opportunities. However, after I ran to the middle of the dreamland, I was surrounded and beaten by several drow. I got scared and ran back. I plan to return to the secret realm later."

Fei Xin sighed, "The Land of Plenty is so dangerous that even a warrior like Wei Ya would be frustrated."

Noita asked confusedly, "What is the Land of Plenty?"

"It refers to the dream you went to. Because of the abundance of opportunities, people gradually called it the Land of Plenty."

"This name is quite appropriate."

"I think it's appropriate too."

Noita suddenly stopped in front of a jewelry store and pulled Fei Xin into the store.

This is a chain store opened by the Gem Chamber of Commerce "Opal Jade". The store is elegantly decorated and luxurious, with whispers of cedar and amber floating in the faint fragrance. Various gemstone ornaments and gold complement each other, quietly sleeping in black velvet, waiting for guests to wake them up.

Noita asked Feixin to wait for a moment. She picked out a pair of lapis lazuli earrings that were similar to Feixin's hair color. After paying, she put the jewelry box in Feixin's hand.

"This is a thank you gift to Fei Xin for not giving me any trouble during the Shihuo Town incident."

"I'm just following the rules."

Fei Xin wanted to push her, but Noita quickly threw the jewelry box into the snack bag.

"I've already paid. It's up to you how to deal with it. Just don't give it to me," Noita said cunningly. "I've learned about Serkar's management of the guards. You can accept gifts within a certain limit."

This means that Serkar allows his members to collect bribes of less than 500 gold coins per year.

But it cannot exceed this amount, or in other words, if it exceeds this amount, it cannot be discovered by the review department such as the city hall.

This is the regulation, but in reality, if there is no large-scale reporting, there will basically be no investigation.

"Is this just a thank-you gift from a friend, or does Feixin not consider me a friend?"

The girl looked at Fei Xin pitifully. Fei Xin struggled internally and then agreed to this move.

She stared at Noita, wanting to say something but stopping herself.

Noita didn't care about that and pulled her out of the store and continued shopping with her good sister Fei Xin.

They shopped until around 10 o'clock in the evening. At this time, half of the shops in the commercial street were closed, and there were fewer professionals on the street. At this time, Noita's interest also faded.

When Noita passed a crossroads, he thought it was a suitable place for farewell.

Having prepared the words of seeing each other again tomorrow, Noita prepared to say goodbye to Fei Xin. With today's buffer, she could guide this kind-hearted girl to investigate the Wingard Chamber of Commerce tomorrow, and she could use Fei Xin's cover to test Lenah and the others.

"and many more."

Before Noita could speak, Fei Xin stopped her.

"I have a colleague coming this way, please wait a moment."

What an unfortunate timing.

Noita stopped in understanding.

She saw a guard from the Zealous Guard rushing over and standing in front of Jade Heart.

"Captain Feixin, a mountain dweller claiming to be from Shihuo Town wants to see you."

Chapter 273 Oh Wow

Is Fei Xin also related to Shihuo Town?

Noita caught the key words and eavesdropped secretly.

However, the guard didn't know why the mountain man came to find Fei Xin. He only knew that he rushed into the office of the Recheng Guard in a hurry, looking dusty and exhausted like a ball of sand, and asked to see Fei Xin.

After roughly understanding what happened, Fei Xin and Noita apologized.

"Sorry, the guards have something to attend to."

Noita nodded in understanding and let Fei Xin handle the work matters.

Before leaving, Fei Xin seemed to pass by Noita unintentionally, and her fingers lightly touched Noita's clothes pocket. She could feel Fei Xin putting something into her pocket.

After Fei Xin left, Noita put his hand into his pocket and fumbled around, his fingertips touching a flexible piece of paper.

When I took it out, I saw it was a check. The withdrawal amount was exactly the same as the price of the lapis lazuli earrings, and I didn't know when the amount was filled in.

Noita raised her eyebrows in amusement, she didn't expect Fei Xin to play this trick on her.

She folded the check and put it in her pocket, then looked back at the journal.

The residents of Shihuo, who hurried over, were filled with anxiety and reported ominous news. A malicious assassin was following them from afar, his fox claws extended, the sinister blade pointed at Zexin.

[Murderous gaze has locked onto your heart and throat]

Noita chuckled.

Just now, because of the arrival of the guards, several malicious gazes followed and fell on him.

The logbook explained everything; the enemy came from the army of Lenah.

With her divine perception unfolding, Noita quickly locked onto the assassins who were mixed in the crowd and coming towards her. The poisoned blade was hidden, reflecting the dim light.

An encounter.

Noita looked up and saw the not-so-sparse crowds of people inside and outside the intersection, and felt that things were not going to go smoothly.

This body was created without any weapons. If it uses the Eternal Blade, it will probably be immediately discovered that it is related to Noita. It was originally a fishing account thrown out to distinguish the main identity. If it is exposed so quickly, it will scare people away.

With bare hands, there is no way to kill them without leaving some trace.

Noita sensed the approach of the assassin and pondered a question: Would Fei Xin have a headache after killing someone in the street and being arrested by the Zealous Guards?

The assassin followed the crowd and approached Noita like an ordinary person. When he was close to the target and was about to draw his sword, the wind gathered from all directions and slashed at the assassin like a sharp spike.

Psionic Arts: Four Phases.

This unusual wind attracted the attention of passers-by. In the Silver Peak Lair, the proportion of professionals in the crowd was much higher than elsewhere.

The wind blade pointed directly at the assassin's throat, but before it pierced the assassin's heart, the magic power that maintained it was offset by the mysterious power of the assassin's body, and it turned into a harmless breeze.

The assassin's eyes sharpened.

Did you realize it? But it’s too late!

A cold murderous intent locked onto Noita. He had already raised his blade, and the sword was as swift as a poisonous snake, unimaginably fast.

The tip of the knife only stabbed towards Noita a little and could not move forward.

The assassin was stunned and tried to push the knife again, but still couldn't move it.

The girl pressed her palm against the assassin's wrist holding the knife, preventing him from getting any closer.

"You're too close to me."

The faint words drifted into the assassin's ears, and he couldn't help but look up and saw the girl's pitying eyes.

In a flash, the dagger changed its owner. Noita grasped the handle of the dagger and stabbed it through the assassin's heart with his backhand. The tip of the knife was incredibly sharp, and with Noita's great strength, even the ribs could not stop the blade from advancing.

The crisis of lost lives stung the professionals nearby, and they all became alert, holding their weapons and guarding against those around them.

Noita drew his knife, and blood splattered silently, soaking the assassin's coat.

He swayed under the gaze of everyone, and suddenly fell to the ground, unconscious.

The blood on the knife is still warm.

Noita stepped over him and strode towards the remaining assassins.

Hello friends who like to play assassination, I will teach you how to attack from the front.

……

Fei Xin rushed to the office and saw the young man who was tired and dusty. He sat restlessly looking at the walls and the corners of the table. His eyes sometimes fixed on a certain place, and sometimes suddenly disappeared like a fish in a pond.

The spirit seems to be under great oppression.

Fei Xin recognized this man; he was a miner from Shihuo Town.
