Chapter 77: My Door Won’t Be Locked, You Don’t Have to go Through the Window

“What?” Fabreidis looked up and showed Zhang Mumbai his sharp and unhappy eyes as he asked coldly, “Do you want me to invite you into the cellar to have a drink?”

“No… no…” Zhang Mumbai backed off continuously as he peeked at Fabreidis unwillingly. However, he didn’t dare to stop at all. He backed away until he exited the courtyard gate.

Although a lump sum of gold coins was a great thing, he valued his life as well! Zhang Mumbai knew he was facing the city’s guardian. Although he was a Level 9 Warrior and held the title “Invincible in Oakland”, he knew that he was nothing in Fabreidis’ eyes. If Fabreidis got mad and wanted to kill him, he had no way of escaping. Fabreidis’s attitude was clear; he wanted to back Qian Jin. Zhang Mumbai would only offend the city’s guardian if his brain stopped working.

Murder was a severe crime! Zhang Mumbai knew that clearly. However, if this crime was committed by the city’s guardian, Mayor Sambaice would definitely try to help Fabreidis cover it up.

If Mr. Sambaice didn’t feel particularly happy, Fabreidis could simply kill Zhang Mumbai. He would die and leave behind nothing. However, if Mayor Sambaice and Fabreidis were in a good mood, he could at least receive a medal after he died. It would increase his salary in the military if he was still alive, but it would decorate his grave after he died.

As for the cause of death? Scouts from the Demon Empire often invaded and performed assassinations. Zhang Mumbai had heard this explanation many times. But why would a demon scout come to this remote city to assassinate a general of the City Defense Force?

If someone was interested in this question and not afraid of death, then he or she could go to the Sky-Demon Capital in the Demon Empire and ask the current Demon King.

“General… why did you come out? Where is the murderer?”

“What murderer! There is no murderer here!” Zhang Mumbai stared at his henchmen viciously as he quickly peeked at Fabreidis’ wine cellar carefully. He was afraid that this city’s guardian might get mad and come out to kill him. “Let’s go! We need to search other places!”

“General… according to the information…”

“Information your mom!” As Zhang Mumbai returned to his people, he immediately reverted to his former rude and unconstrained self. He kicked the henchman who was talking to him quietly as he yelled, “Do you want to die? This is the property of the city’s guardian! How would the murderer dare to hide here?”

The sly soldiers immediately understood Zhang Mumbai’s meaning behind his yelling and shouting. After all this trouble, the powerful and influential person in this building wanted to block all the trouble for Qian Jin.

Through the window, Qian Jin saw the soldiers who had lost their spirit scatter away. He then turned around and looked at Fabreidis, who had maintained a calm demeanor the entire time. This was the status of a city’s guardian!

“You should stay here tonight.” Fabreidis stood up and walked out of the wine cellar. “One day when you want to kill the person behind all of this, it would be better for you to come here afterwards. I can testify that you were staying at my place.”

“Even if you kill the mayor,” Fabreidis stopped walking as he turned around and smiled at Qian Jin, “I can also testify for you, but…”

“I understand.” Qian Jin jumped up and sat on the edge of the opened window as he raised the glass of wine in his hand. “You won’t help me kill him, right?”
