v2 Chapter 269: female thief

"Aldrich Alfred..."

Rand chewed on the name for two seconds before finally remembering who Lena was talking about, and said in shock, "That rookie last year?"

Lina said in a deep voice, "He's not a rookie now, at least he's a rank 4 Beyonder. My 'real illusion' is completely useless to him."

"Rank 4!" Rand whispered, "How long has it been?"

"Maybe he hid his strength when he was in Huodu." Lina endured the pain and asked everyone to evacuate together, "I guess that female thief doesn't know him at all, it's just a coincidence, but that thing came into the hands of a rank 4 Extraordinary. , it will be troublesome.”

"damn it!"

……

Aldrich and Eve, who was still asleep, did not return to the Kim Wyson Hotel, but went to another rather luxurious Celtic hotel.

The Kim Wyson Hotel is estimated to be the gathering place for Rand and others. Even if Aldridge is not afraid of them, there is no need to meet them head-on.

He took Eve to a suite, and after checking the little guy's condition, he took out the extra item from his trouser pocket.

This is a silver button with an ordinary shape and looks very simple. On the front edge of the button, there are strange words that are familiar but different.

Aldridge asked silently, "What is this?"

"Aiken's Silver Buttons".

Sure enough... this thing and the 'Aiken's Silver Ring' that Aldrich still wears on his hand are basically made from the same template.

Aldridge pondered for a few seconds, then smeared a drop of blood on all the words on the button, and a letter suddenly appeared in front of him—Aldridge had also taken the exact same thing, an invitation from that strange man.

What these people are fighting for is not this silver button, what they are fighting for should be the qualification to participate in 'Aiken's Game'!

This shows two things:

First, 'Aiken's Game' is an 'event' that is participated through an invitation letter, and no participants are specified.

Second, and most importantly, this 'Aiken's game' may involve extraordinary interests!

Aldridge didn't think about how the two invitations in his hand could be manipulated to get results that would be beneficial to him. Instead, he took off the silver ring from his hand and threw it into the other black ring he was carrying, and then Wear it on your finger.

If his guess is correct, the competition for 'Aiken's Silver Button' tonight is not limited to the two parties he encountered before. There may be more people and more forces searching for it like hounds. The Aldrich of Invitation is the center of the storm!

Aldridge has no fear. Since the person closest to it is Lena Omar, a rank 4, there should be no higher-level people involved, at most the same order.

The fight against Rank 4 is not a once or twice. Aldridge clearly knows that there are very few Beyonders who can restrain him, and even if he can't fight, he can retreat strategically.

The only troublesome thing is that Eve is still by his side. Under the current situation, the safety of the little guy is more worth worrying about.

"I thought there would be no trouble coming out this time." Aldridge shook his head with a wry smile. The development of things will always exceed people's expectations.

It wasn't a long night, and it was very peaceful. Eve also woke up at around 6 in the morning, and there was no adverse reaction except for being a little ignorant.

Aldrich has been half asleep. He thought there would be visitors tonight, but he didn't expect to be quiet all night.

The woman who left the silver button must have left a back door for herself. It is unlikely that this kind of content will be thrown directly, so Aldrich has been waiting for her to come to the door.

You can use him as a shield, as long as you can pay a sufficient and satisfying price.

It's a pity that the other party didn't show up. If he didn't let go directly, he would be entangled and unable to escape.

The longer the delay, the greater the variable, and Aldridge has already started to prepare for the next move just to be on the safe side.

During the day, Aldrich and Eve simply did not go out. Eve was not unhappy at all, and stayed at the hotel reading books with peace of mind.

……

At night, a vigorous figure walked along the wall outside the Celtic Hotel, as if it was not affected by gravity, and there was no sound from where the toes touched the wall, showing the other party's 'professional' quality.

Suddenly she stopped and hung her body in the air just by holding the wall with one hand. Her nose under the black face towel twitched a few times, and she jumped to a window in the corner of the 5th floor without hesitation.

"Heh... He's really an ordinary person."

She touched the position of the window, and found that it was not locked at all, and let out a secret smile in her heart.

Silently opening the window, she quickly observed the internal situation for a few seconds, and she entered the door with a gentle jump, and then the cold hair exploded, and she felt a human figure on both sides of the window!

She rolled forward to change her face, but found that there were no people by the window at all, but two tall and burly armors.

Huh... It turned out to be an ornament.

She breathed a sigh of relief silently, and tickled the corner of her mouth mockingly, just to scare herself.

However, the moment she relaxed, she suddenly reacted:

"Which hotel would be decorated with expensive armor and put it by the window?"

As soon as this idea came to her mind, a bright light suddenly lit up in the house that made her heart instantly tense. The light made her involuntarily narrow her eyes, and at the same time she quickly ran towards the window!

"Someone found the passerby first~lightnovelpub.net~ and set a trap!"

Such an idea popped into her mind, and she decided to retreat immediately, but just as she approached the window, the armor that was originally motionless raised the giant axe in her hand at the same time, and crossed it to seal the escape space!

"This is bad!"

The woman secretly complained, and could only turn around to prepare to kill the master here, but found that at some point, on the sofa in the living room opposite, a figure with a white mask was watching her quietly.

I didn't even notice it at all!

Desperate emotions crept into her mind, and she subconsciously grabbed the dagger around her waist.

In fact, Aldrich sitting on the sofa was also a little speechless... He looked at the woman's actions, and felt a little not very smart.

The vigilance of walking into an unknown, unlocked room so naturally can be said to be extremely poor.

He waited for the other party to complete all the actions that he was supposed to do before saying, "Ma'am, your behavior is a little rude."

The faintly visible corner of the woman's mouth twitched under the black face towel, and said stiffly, "I can apologize for my rude intrusion."

Is this the point... Aldridge was a little speechless.

"Your disrespect is not tonight."

Aldrich tossed the round silver button in his hand playfully, and saw the other person's eyes moving up and down following the button involuntarily.

Just like a stupid cat.
