Dumb Girls in Another World

Chapter 66 News
"You said that the missing girl in your village has been found?" As the lord of the city, Lord City Lord has a lot of things to do every day. The case of missing girls has always been handled by his subordinates, because the missing girls are only a dozen civilian girls. He is not a nobleman, so the city lord's subordinates will naturally not be too aggressive in investigating this matter.

Everywhere in this world there will be class distinctions. In the eyes of these superiors, the lives of commoners are of course impossible to be more important than nobles. The disappearance of one or two commoner girls is naturally not a big deal in the eyes of the city lord and others.

However, there are too many missing people, so it’s not a trivial matter. The city lord only recently discovered that there have been a lot of missing girls in the past two or three years. In recent years, there have been more than 200 missing girls. This is not a small number. .

Even if the missing person is just a small commoner village girl, as long as it is reported to the higher authorities, he, the owner of the Frost City, will definitely be scolded.

He also wants to be transferred to a bigger city to be the city lord. It is of course impossible to get promoted if he can't make achievements in his political performance.

In addition, he heard that His Royal Highness the Little Prince and His Royal Highness the Little Princess are going to Frost City in the next two days, so he doesn't want the news of a major case in his jurisdiction to be reported to them.

It's all right now, as long as the missing girl is found, no matter whether the murderer is found or not, the case is considered to have progressed, and it cannot be said that he did nothing.

"I found it." It was the first time I saw an official as big as the city lord, and the old village chief was so tight that his legs were shaking.

"Where is the man, where did he find it? Is he still alive?" The city lord excitedly stood up from his throne.

"It was found on the big mountain next to our village. There is a cave in that big mountain. All the girls died in that cave. Fortunately, there were adventurers to help them. Otherwise, those girls don't know when they will find it. .” The village chief felt a little heavy when he thought of the girls who died tragically.

After hearing what the old village chief said, the city lord became a little unhappy. What do you mean, you mean that the city lord is not capable enough to help you find someone, right?
Although the city lord was already dissatisfied with the old village chief, he did not show it on his face. Not only did he not show any anger, but he also had a kind and friendly expression.

"It turns out that there are adventurers helping you. I don't know if the adventurer has come. The city lord must thank them for doing a great favor to the people of our Frost City." The city lord has always paid attention to his image and is willing to make friends. The strong man, in the imagination of the city lord, who can survive under the claws of the ice and snow storm bear, must be a master, and this kind of person is easy to make friends with.

"The two adventurers have already left, but they took over the mission from our village and should come back again." The old villager said honestly.

"I see." The city lord nodded, and there was no need to rush to find someone if he still appeared.

"You came to the city lord because you want..." The city lord just realized that he hadn't asked the village chief what he wanted to do.

"Reporting to Lord City Master, Xiaomin would like to ask you to send a necromancer to help those dead children. The adventurer said that the souls of those children have been left in the place where they died and could not be liberated. Xiaomin had no choice but to Come to seek help from the city lord."

"Necromancer? What's the problem? Go back first. At most tomorrow, the city lord will send a necromancer to your village." The city lord first raised his eyebrows in surprise, then nodded in agreement with a smile.

The village was overjoyed and thanked again and again before leaving the city lord's mansion.

As soon as the village chief left, the city lord, who was originally kind-hearted, lowered his face, "Come here, step up your guard, and don't let suspicious people destroy Miss Tomorrow's birthday party."

"Yes." The city lord's confidant immediately responded respectfully.

The next day, Feng Wu and Ajie got up, and the undead girl followed Feng Wu all the time, the whole spirit body was floating here and there, very lively.

Half a day later, some of the civilians sent by Ajel to inquire about the news came back, and all of them were those who had gone to nearby villages to inquire about the news.

"Master Adventurer, I found out what you wanted. The village I went to had several girls missing a year ago, because the people in that village were relatively poor and couldn't afford adventurers, so they had to rely on the City Lord's Mansion to catch them." The murderer, but more than a year later, the murderer is still not found, the girls are nowhere to be found, and there is no news from the city lord's mansion."

The person who came to report was a boy who looked to be 14 or 5 years old. The boy's clothes were rather shabby and he was very thin. He knew that he didn't eat very well.

The young man recounted the news he found out. Yesterday he was lucky enough to be valued by the adventurer. He asked him to go to a nearby village to inquire about the news. As long as he got the news, he would be rewarded with 20 silver coins. But that's the equivalent of 20 months' salary.

In Frost City, the income of ordinary civilians is only 2 silver coins a month, and 20 silver coins is really a lot of money.

Because of the generous rewards, he immediately agreed to help inquire about the news, saving 20 silver coins, enough for their family for a year.

"Very good, this is your reward." Under the young man's fiery gaze, Ajer took out 20 silver coins and handed them to the young man.

"Then go to other villages to ask. A piece of information costs 20 silver coins. The information must be accurate. If you dare to deceive me, you don't want to know what will happen." Although Ajieer didn't care about the money, he didn't want to Being taken for a ride, so the necessary warning is still necessary.

The young man grabbed the hem of his clothes nervously, nodded fiercely, and then left Pierre's shop.

After the boy left, two more people came to report their investigation results. There are quite a few nearby villages where girls have been lost.

So far, the farthest time interval is the village where the girl was lost two years ago. That village is not far from Bingshuangcheng, but it has a small population, a small village with a total of more than 700 people.

Ajel sent the person who came to report the news with only one feeling in his heart, the reward for this task was too low, the murderer had harmed so many people, and he only gave such a small amount of money, isn't the reward proportional to the work.

But if you accept the mission, unless the mission fails, you can't cancel the mission. If you can, Ajieer will definitely pull Feng Wu to return the mission. It's not worth it to get such a little money after working so hard.

Although he was dissatisfied that the salary was too low and uneconomical, he had already accepted the task. He thought it was just a small task, but unexpectedly it involved hundreds of lives.

Throughout the afternoon, thinking of the problem of collecting too little money, Ajel was not in a good mood.

As night came, the three of them changed into decent and slightly gorgeous dresses, and took the invitation to the ball to the city lord's mansion in a carriage.
