Chapter 68

Politeness: Are you Xi Yao?

"I'm innocent!"

"I, old Sambo, am a well-known honest man in Belleburg. How could I possibly be a wanted criminal?"

"You have to believe me!"

Sambo shouted that he was wronged.

"You mean, Little Spark is framing you?"

"What bad intentions could a naive, innocent, and adorable little girl like her have?"

Xi Yao pointed to the sparks beside her with a cold smile.

"Exactly!"

"Little Spark is such a well-behaved girl, how could she possibly falsely accuse someone?"

March 7 and Xing deeply agreed with Xi Yao's statement.

Even Walter and Danheng nodded in agreement.

On one side is a well-behaved and adorable little girl, and on the other side is a flamboyant and strangely behaving middle-aged man. You don't even need to think about who you should believe, right?

Sambo:?

What do you mean she could have any bad intentions?

She has a lot of bad intentions!

You have plenty of bad intentions too!

The two of you together have over eight hundred schemes!

It's so numb, I'm really impressed!

Of course, Sangbo only dared to think about Spark and Xiyao in his heart; he would never dare to say such things out loud.

Upon hearing that Sangbo was a wanted criminal, everyone glared at him menacingly and drew their weapons, closing in on him.

If he doesn't provide a reasonable explanation, he'll likely face a siege of justice.

In order to avoid being beaten, Sangbo quickly explained:

"Everyone, that's not what I meant."

"Of course I know this little girl wouldn't deliberately frame me!"

"I mean, is it possible that this little girl has mistaken someone for someone else?"

"As far as I know, Bellenberg's wanted posters are quite abstract, so it's not surprising that this little girl admitted her mistake, right?"

As he spoke, Sangbo winked at Huohua and Xiyao.

Please!

We're all on the same side, don't mess with me!

Spark and Xi Yao exchanged a glance and smiled inexplicably.

Then, Spark pretended to look confused and said in an uncertain tone:

"this……"

"All I remember is that the wanted poster showed an uncle with blue-purple hair."

"I don't remember anything else either~"

Hearing her words, the crowd lowered their guard against Sambo slightly.

After all, there are plenty of people with blue or purple hair, so you can't judge him to be a wanted criminal just because of that.

"I'm sorry, Uncle, I think I misunderstood you."

Spark lowered her head, looking remorseful.

On March 7th, he took her hand and comforted her:

"It's alright. He was hiding suspiciously in the snow all by himself, so it's normal for people to become suspicious, right?"

"Who's the kind-hearted person who comes to the snowy plains to buy goods?"

Seeing that Danheng and Walter had put down their weapons, Sambo slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

They finally managed to fool everyone.

It's alright. Although these two people are inhuman and even betray their own people, at least they didn't completely ruin themselves.

Just as he relaxed for a moment, a persistent voice rang in his ear.

"The suspect is over here!"

"There are accomplices!"

Sambo looked back and saw several Silvermane Iron Guards appearing not far away.

Further away, Jepard was on his way with even more Iron Guards.

"OK!"

"So you really are a wanted criminal!"

"Don't run away!"

March 7th pointed angrily at Sangbo.

Buhou!

We have to leave!

Old Sambo silently shielded everyone in front of him, then immediately turned and ran away.

You're churning the road!

However, he hadn't run two steps when Spark and Xi Yao exchanged a glance and simultaneously stretched out their legs in perfect unison.

"Ouch!"

Sambo, who was running hard, was tripped and then grabbed by the arriving guards.

Damn it!

Sangbo glared resentfully at Xiyao and Huohua, then sighed.

What are you doing?

Why are you targeting me specifically?

Sigh, I guess I'll just have to find a chance to slip away.

Poor Uncle with Cold Legs was finally caught, ending his life of crime!

Hehe~

Just then, Jepard arrived with his team.

A silver-maned iron guard walked over and reported the situation.

"Sir, the suspect has been apprehended!"

"However, besides him, several other people were also found."

"They helped catch the suspect; they don't seem like accomplices."

"Um!"

Jepard nodded, then slowly walked to the front of the group, bowed, and said:

"Gentlemen, I am Jepard, the Silvermane Iron Guard garrison commander."

"We've been tracking him for a long time, but he's been very cunning and we haven't been able to catch him. Thank you for helping us capture this wanted criminal."

On the way here, everyone had already learned some things about this place through the Spark's Mouth.

Of course, it was already known that the Silvermane Iron Guards were Belloborg's army.

Xi Yao waved her hand and smiled sweetly.

"You're welcome. Helping the Silvermane Iron Guards capture wanted criminals is what we should do."

Sambo:? ? ?

Politeness: Are you Xi Yao?

You're amazing!

You're so arrogant!

You're using me as a pledge of loyalty to increase your favorability?!

After thanking him, Jepard straightened his expression and asked:

"Gentlemen, the snowfields outside Beloborg are extremely dangerous right now."

"Cracks and monsters could appear anywhere."

"Citizens of Belloberg are generally not allowed to leave the city."

Why are you here?

The group exchanged glances, and finally, March 7th stepped forward to negotiate.

She took Spark's hand and said with a smile:

"This child must have accidentally encountered a rift and been transported to the snowfield."

We plan to take her home.

"As for us..."

March 7th paused for a moment and chuckled.

"We are not citizens of Belleburg; we come from outer space."

"From beyond the heavens?"

"yes!"

Dan Heng shrugged and began to explain:

"The reason why this planet experiences cold waves and rift erosion is because of something called the star core."

"As long as the star core is sealed, the disaster can be solved at its source."

"That's exactly what we've come for."

"This...sounds way too far-fetched, doesn't it?"

"yes!"

After thinking for a moment, Jepard explained:

"It is said that long ago, extraterrestrial visitors did indeed frequently visit Belleburg."

"But in the seven hundred years since the cold wave arrived, no one has ever crossed the snow to reach Beloborg."

"I'm sorry, everyone, what you've said is beyond my judgment."

"I'm afraid only the Great Guardian can decide what to do."

The group exchanged glances and nodded in agreement.

Being able to speak with the supreme ruler would be good; if they could gain his support, it would make their expansion in Arilol VI much easier.

"Then I'll have to trouble you."

"It's my duty, how can it be considered troublesome?"

Jepard shook his head, then looked at Spark beside him.

"As for this little girl, it is indeed quite common for her to be teleported to unknown places by the rift."

"Most people will be torn apart by the monster and perish."

"It's a miracle that no one got hurt."

"When we get back to Belloberg, I'll arrange for guards to escort her home."

"Thank you for protecting the citizens of Belleburg."

"Great, now you can get home safely!"

March 7th held Spark's hand and looked very happy.

"Um!"

Spark nodded with a smile, then gave Jepard a sweet smile.

"Thank you, brother Jepard!"

"No need to thank me, it's what I should do as a Silvermane Iron Guard."

Jepard smiled gently.

"Let's go, everyone."

"Once we pass through this snow curtain, we'll reach Beloborg."

"Yay!"

Several beautiful girls happily followed Jepard forward, their faces beaming with joy.

Even Danheng and Walter had faint smiles on their faces.

Amidst the laughter and joy on one side, the scene on the other was quite different.

"hurry up!"

"Hurry up, what are you dawdling for?"

Several Silvermane Iron Guards escorted Sambo, who was already tightly bound, forward.

Sambo: I'd like to walk faster!

The problem is that my feet are tied together, how can I walk fast!

His legs were bound together by a thick iron chain, making it difficult for him to take any big steps.

In a casual glance, Sangbo saw the mischievous smiles on Huohua and Xiyao's lips.

His lips twitched slightly.

It's so numb!

Two wicked little devils!

They only target their own people!

I'm truly impressed!
