I Am the Fifth of the Four Demon Kings

v5 Chapter 123: Rogue Serena

Lu Ming casually bought some things in the grocery store. Although Lu Ming had just arrived in this world not long ago, after all, they had taken down such a behemoth as the Wolfyue clan.

   No matter how weak the Wolfyue clan is, it is also one of the seven clans. The treasures in the treasury are inexhaustible. If he goes out, he will not be short of money no matter what.

   But after the purchase was completed, Lu Ming looked directly at the old woman who was in charge of the grocery store, and suddenly said:

   "By the way, I would like to ask you something about a female snitch..."

   Before he finished speaking, he noticed that the old woman's eyes had changed, as if he knew who he was talking about.

   Lu Ming silently remembered this in his heart. It seemed that the thief was indeed quite famous in this city, and he should be a local.

   But if he asks, it doesn't mean that the other party will answer.

   After listening to his question, the old woman asked instead with some caution:

   "You two, what do you want her for?"

   It seems that the female thief has a good reputation in the city, and everyone in the clan is helping her to guard against outsiders.

   Seeing this, Lu Ming spread his hands and replied:

   "I just asked her to buy something."

   This sentence is the truth. If possible, Lu Ming would like to buy the fragments of the Goddess Key from the other party.

   But if the female thief disagrees, don't blame him.

   Hearing what he said, the old woman relaxed and took a look at both of them.

   She felt that the man and woman in front of her didn't look like any bad people. After a little hesitation, she spoke:

   "What you are looking for is Serena, she is the only female thief in our city."

   "It's just that, although Serena is a thief, she... is a very good child..."

   The old woman said, she sighed and couldn't help telling Lu Ming the life experience of the female thief:

   "The child is an orphan. The origin is unknown. She doesn't remember it anymore. She only knows that she was picked up by the slum when she was about to die."

   "Later she miraculously survived, living in a slum, and when she grew up, she found that she possessed extremely powerful power."

   "But in order to repay the people in the slum, she has been reluctant to leave there, occasionally using her own power to do something stealing to help those people over there to make ends meet."

   The old woman was speechless, as if she was pitying the other party.

  With that girl's abilities, she can work for the Lord Lord and enjoy more wealth, but she refuses to leave the slums, and the Lord Lord has no way to recruit her.

   After hearing what the old woman said, Lu Ming couldn't help but vomit:

   "Well, this story really seems familiar."

   The old woman glanced at him inexplicably, wondering what he was talking about.

   But at the end, I added:

   "If you want to find her, just go to the slum and wait. She will definitely not leave there."

   After listening to the story of the old woman, Lu Ming took Phil Xilu and left the shop.

   After thinking about it, he didn't ask about the location of the slum, but grabbed Phil Xilu's hand and landed in the vicinity of the female thief.

   Just after landing, Lu Ming smelled an unpleasant breath, and when he looked up, he found that he and Phil Xilu had come to a muddy ground with rubbish.

   Phil Xilu couldn't help covering his nose.

   But Lu Ming turned his head and took a look, and immediately found several tramplings lying beside the garbage.

   When the few wanderers saw Lu Ming's arrival, they didn't bother to look at him, they seemed rather unfriendly.

   Upon seeing this, Lu Ming frowned, glanced at the poorest person closest to him, and suddenly asked:

   "Do you know where Serena is?"

   However, he just asked, the few nearby poor people who didn't pay attention to him, but immediately cast their gazes.

   It's just this look, how do you look at it, there is a kind of coldness.

   "Boy, what are you looking for Serena for?"

   These poor people stood up without knowing when, and they didn't know where to get the iron rods, all around him one after another.

   The attitude of these poor people suddenly made Lu Ming a little unhappy. He moved his fingers, he already wanted to do it.

   However, before he could move, a shout suddenly came out from a low wooden room behind him:

   "You guy! Don't bully everyone!"

   The voice went from far to near, and it came to Lu Ming's face in less than a moment.

   And when Lu Ming saw a girl who was a little shorter than himself suddenly rushed out in front of him, he couldn't help being taken aback. The other party was the female thief he had encountered outside.

   The one named Serena.

   And the moment Serena saw Lu Ming, she was stunned. She seemed to remember Lu Ming. After she stole something from the other party, this man suddenly appeared on the path she was going to escape.

   If she hadn't reacted quickly enough, she would have hit the opponent long ago.

   Seeing Lu Ming's appearance, she couldn't help taking two steps back, and couldn't help treating them as companions of the stolen.

   "You...what are you doing here, I don't have what you want!"

   Serena’s tone was very decisive. She was returning the things she stolen. It was absolutely impossible, so she was ready to escape.

   As for the people in the slums, Serena thinks that Lu Ming should not be interested in them~lightnovelpub.net~ At the same time, she also madly gestured to the poor people nearby to keep them from making trouble.

   However, Lu Ming glanced at everything nearby before suddenly speaking to Serena:

   "I heard that you stole things just to sell a high price to feed the people here, right?"

   He looked at Serena’s eyes nearby, hesitated to see the poor people who didn’t know whether they should put down their weapons, suddenly turned to look at Serena, and said:

   "In that case, let's make a price for the thing you stole before. We are interested in buying it."

   Lu Ming just said this sentence, and saw Serena, who had been sneaking back on the other side, suddenly stopped and shouted with bright eyes:

   "Really?!"

   She seemed to hear that someone was going to buy something from her, and she couldn't walk anymore.

   In the next second, she calmed down, took a look at Lu Ming, and said suspiciously:

   "But, can you really buy it?"

   paused, she reminded Lu Ming:

   "The treasures I have dealt with, but all started with several gold coins."

   Hearing her say this, Lu Ming almost didn't laugh.

   Indeed, a few gold coins are already very valuable in this era, even the salary of some lower nobles for several years.

   But compared to the priceless pieces of the Goddess Key, a few gold coins are still too cheap.

   Sure enough, this female thief from a slum didn't know what precious treasure she had stolen before.

   Lu Ming couldn't help but secretly said in his heart.
