When Meg returned to the tavern, Irina and Ai Fei were drinking tea.
"Ah … You're back."
Meg felt a little guilty, but looking at the two sitting across from each other, the atmosphere seemed to be more harmonious than he expected.
"Did you find the person?" Irina looked at Meg and asked.
It seemed that Ai Fei had already told Irina about what happened last night.
Mag shook his head, and said, "No. The other party is more cunning. I got the location, but there was no one there. There should be someone keeping an eye on us. They would only come out to meet us after they saw Miss Effie there."
"Mr. Hades went to find the mastermind alone?" Ai Fei was slightly surprised. She thought that Meg only went to the yamen to record a statement.
"Yes, if we want to find the mastermind, we have to make the act real. Miss Ai Fei will have to come with me to lure out the person hiding behind the scenes." Meg nodded.
"But … Won't that be too dangerous?" Ai Fei was a little worried. She didn't want Mr. Hades and his family to be in danger again for her.
"It's okay, I'll go too." Irina put down her teacup and said with a cold expression: "I despise bastards who lay their hands on women the most."
Ai Fei looked at the righteous Irina. She was a little touched and a little ashamed.
Ai Fei was so indignant for her, but she was greedy for Ai Fei's husband. She was too cheap.
"I'll go too! I'll go too! "Amy quickly raised her small hand and actively participated.
"Okay, then you guys get ready. I'll call a carriage and leave from the backyard." Meg nodded and whispered a few words to Irina before leaving through the back door.
Soon after, a shabby carriage stopped in the backyard of the Saipan Tavern for a while and then slowly drove away towards the west of the city.
"Should we inform the yamen? If we go, will we be in danger? "Ai Fei sat in the carriage and looked at Irina and Amy sitting across from her. She was a little worried.
"If we go, the bad guys will be in danger." Amy nodded.
"I've already informed the yamen. They should be here soon. Once the thugs are arrested, this matter will be over," Meg agreed outside the carriage.
"That's good." Ai Fei was slightly relieved.
The carriage soon arrived at the western part of the city. It drove into the desolate Tulou Alley and stopped at the end of the alley.
After putting on a disguise, Meg entered the carriage and carried the tied-up Effie out. He then kicked open the broken wooden door and walked in.
"It might take a while, but don't worry, Miss Efie, I will protect you."
Mag found a relatively intact house, and put Effie down. He found an old chair in the corner for her to sit on, and lowered his voice as he said, "Don't worry.
"Yes."
Ai Fei twisted her completely tied up body uncomfortably. Her face was slightly red, and she was inexplicably excited.
Meg glanced at Ai Fei, who was tied up in a tortoiseshell, and his eyelids twitched. He wondered where Irina had learned this technique …
Don't say …
It was quite interesting.
"What if no one comes?" Ai Fei asked.
"The other party's main target is you. If they don't come, then there's no need to go through so much trouble." Meg smiled and shook his head. He then looked at Ai Fei and seriously said, "But if the yamen people come, Miss Efie must deal with them according to what I taught you before."
"Yes, I'll remember. I definitely won't drag Mr. Hades and you into this." Ai Fei nodded solemnly.
"Okay, then we'll wait here and see who the mastermind is."
Meg didn't say anything else and quietly stood to the side.
"Boss, they're here."
In a three-story wooden pavilion not far from Tulou Alley, a black-robed man whispered to a figure standing by the window.
"Where's the woman?" the man asked.
"I brought her."
"Go and bring her back. If there's a trap, you know what to do, right?" the man said in a low voice.
The black-robed man's face showed a trace of hesitation, but he still took out a pill and put it in his mouth.
"Go." the man ordered.
The black-robed man quickly went downstairs and left.
The man standing in front of the window slowly turned around. Surprisingly, it was the owner of the tavern, Boris.
… …
Meg and Ai Fei didn't have to wait for too long. Five black-robed men walked into the dilapidated courtyard and went straight to the house where Meg and Ai Fei were.
Ai Fei showed a bit of panic and subconsciously raised her head to look at Meg who was standing to the side.
The leader of the black-robed men first looked at the tied up Ai Fei and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes. Then he waved his hand at Meg and threw a black bag of money to him. He said in a low voice, "Two hundred fifty thousand copper coins, you can go."
Meg flipped the bag of money in his hand and casually tied it to his waist. However, he still stood in the same place and looked at the black-robed man with a smile, "I'm very curious, which boss is willing to spend so much money for us to tie up this woman."
"The rules of the black market are to do things with money. Why do you have so many questions?" The black-robed man coldly shouted and stared at Meg with a somewhat unfriendly gaze, "If you want to break the rules, don't regret it."
The other four black-robed men also held the weapons at their waist and slowly surrounded Abel.
"Rules?" Meg smiled and kicked the ground. A huge axe flew up and fell into his hand, "I've always been a person who follows the rules. No one can touch my people. This is the rule."
"Kill him and the two hundred fifty thousand will be Brother's."
The black-robed man waved his hand and the other four black-robed men pulled out their weapons and rushed toward Meg.
Meg raised his eyebrows. This scene was like a group of brass fearlessly rushing toward the king. It was awe-inspiring.
Therefore, he carried the axe and sent the group of level three and four knights away like chopping chickens.
"This …"
When the leader of the black-robed men saw this scene, his eyes widened. He took out three light yellow balls and threw them on the ground. Then, he turned around and ran out.
The three thunder balls exploded on the ground and a few clouds of smoke rose up.
In the blink of an eye, the black-robed man was outside the house.
However, a two-meter-tall giant suddenly appeared and blocked the door.
The black-robed man was shocked, but he reacted quickly. He waved the long sword in his hand and cut off one of the giant's arms.
"Hmm?"
The black-robed man was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect himself to be so brave.
However, although the giant lost an arm, he was still brave and rushed forward again.
The black-robed man quickly waved his sword again and cut off the giant's other arm. At the same time, he stabbed the giant's heart. Then, he lifted his leg and kicked the giant over.
"Bah!"
The black-robed man spat. This was the most satisfying fight he had ever experienced. It was so satisfying!
"Did you experience the thrill of battle?" A voice sounded from the side.
Just as the black-robed man was about to nod, his expression changed. He turned around and saw a huge axe coming at him.
The axe cut him in half. Such a cruel scene, even Meg didn't dare to look back.
