Chapter 436 - Missing Person Case (3) (1/2)

Auron was shocked by this gimmick. Previously, they had agreed to be a brother and sister. So, when it suddenly changed to husband and wife, Auron was not ready.

Auron dropped the luggage that he brought because of the shock. However, Alice glared intensely at him and it made Auron quickly composed himself. He smiled wryly at Alice and the guards.

One of the guards saw this and thought, ”What a sad husband. He must be tortured at home. What a poor man he is.”

From the way Alice treated Auron, the guard thought that Auron must be tortured at home. The guard felt relieved because even though his wife not as beautiful as Alice, but at least she was a loving person.

Seeing Auron smiled wryly, Alice walked over and shouted furiously at him, ”What are you doing?!!!”

”Oh, my cosmetics.” Alice cried out pitifully while approaching the dropped luggage on the ground.

Auron quickly realized something and ducked down to take the luggage once more. Meanwhile, Alice took out a small bag of cosmetics and brought it by herself. She left the rest of the luggage to Auron.

Alice went over to the guards, ”Is the checking done?”

The guard awoke and quickly said, ”Yes. Yes, it is done. Here is your pass.”

Alice took the pass, ”Thank you. Do you know where the inn is? I want to take a rest first before scouting the potential house.”

Alice was back with her cheerful and kind voice. It was so worlded apart with the voice she used when she talked with Auron previously.

The guard pointed at the inn's direction. Alice immediately went to where the guard pointed at without caring about Auron.

Auron quickly followed behind Alice. Meanwhile, the guard pat Auron at his shoulder and sighed pitifully. One of the guards even said, ”I also like an older woman as you do. But, I guess you chose the wrong woman.”

Auron could not reply and only smile wryly. Seeing Alice had gone far, Auron quickly bade the guards farewell and ran to Alice while bringing all of the luggage with him.

5 minutes later, Auron arrived in front of the inn. He walked inside carrying everything with him. The inn's bellboy saw Auron and went to help him which Auron was grateful. When Auron arrived at the inn, Alice had already finished booking a room and got the key.

Since they pretended to be a husband and wife, both of them only book one room. Alice didn't mind sharing a room with a man. However, Auron was nervous.

All of his life was spent inside the game. He rarely interacted with a woman intimately. Usually, the woman whom he had interacted with was a subordinate. Moreover, he was so focused on the game and his own strength and development. This made him didn't have any sort of feeling towards the woman.

However, right now, Auron had to share a room with Alice. He tried to calm his mind and just think this was just for the sake of the mission. Moreover, they would spend most of the day outside of the room.
