Li Shanren looked at the elf swordsman in front of him who seemed to be a little out of his mind. He was silent for a few seconds, and then put the map back into his hand.

"as long as you are happy."

After that, he turned around and walked towards Mrs. Marley's room on the first floor of the hotel.

He was too lazy to tangle with this elf swordsman any longer.

Pushing open the door, a faint smell of blood floated in the air, tables and chairs were overturned, vases were broken, and the floor was dirty.

The old woman with a kind face sat on an armchair at the far end, her head lowered, as if she had fallen into a deep sleep, and a half-knitted white sweater was placed on her knees.

Li Shanren took a deep breath and walked slowly to Mrs. Marley.

"Mrs. Marley?" he called softly.

no respond.

Li Shanren slowly leaned down and looked up.

This kind old woman's eyes were slightly closed, her expression was calm, but her face was slightly pale.

On her chest, a wooden hairpin was pierced deeply into her heart.

Madame Marley committed suicide.

Seeing this scene, Li Shanren slowly exhaled the air he had just taken in, as if to expel the stagnation in his heart.

After a while, he looked at the sweater on the opponent's knees. There was a piece of paper sticking out from the edge of the sweater, as if something was covered underneath.

Li Shanren gently opened his sweater, and there was a slightly yellowed piece of paper hidden underneath.

[We left early, maybe we can meet up in Olin City]

Seeing the content on the paper, Li Shanren's heart moved. Could it be that this was left by Tifa and the others?

He took out the piece of paper, looked at it carefully for a while, and then turned it over to the other side.

There are also words on that side, and the font is quite elegant.

"If you are a kind stranger, could you please drag my body outside the hotel and burn it? If you are Tifa, please help me by burying me in the cemetery in the backyard garden, and then help me put a A bouquet of flowers that I like, and if you are Mr. Leathern, please turn to the other side.”

Li Shanren sighed softly, put away the paper, then straightened up, pulled out the bloody hairpin that pierced the heart, and then opened his hands to carry the old lady's body.

"Do you need help?"

A neutral voice sounded from behind.

Li Shanren turned his head slightly and glanced behind him.

The elf swordsman walked in at some point and looked at the messy room.

"Although I don't know who she is to you, you seem a little sad."

The elf swordsman stepped forward and offered his hand.

"She is..." Li Shanren opened his mouth, not knowing how to describe Mrs. Marley for a while.

Friendly landlord? A kind old man? Or...

"She is the only person I know in this city now." Li Shanren said at last.

He did not refuse the help of the Elf Swordsman.

"Where are you going to take her?"

"According to her suicide note, bury her in the backyard garden." Li Shanren replied with a sigh.

"Yes." The elf swordsman nodded and said nothing more.

Together, they carried Mrs. Marley's body to the garden cemetery in the backyard.

There were many tombstones standing there, and there was an open space in the most inconspicuous place in the corner. Next to the open space was a coffin that had been prepared, and a thin layer of dust fell on the coffin lid.

They placed Mrs. Marley's body in the coffin, along with the half of the unfinished sweater.

Then Li Shanren found a rough and rusty shovel on the ground nearby and began to dig a grave for Mrs. Marley in the open space.

In order to speed up, he also used the Soul Summoning Bell to summon the three wolves he hadn't seen for a long time to help dig the hole.

There is no need to trouble the Homeless Knight with this kind of thing, and the Homeless Knight is not necessarily faster than three professional diggers.

Seeing Li Shanren using summoning magic, the elf swordsman was a little surprised, but he didn't say much and silently found another shovel to help dig the hole.

With the efforts of two people and three wolves, a neat grave pit was soon excavated.

The coffin was carried into the grave, then covered with soil and erected with a tombstone.

Li Shanren drew out the King's Army Straight Sword, looked at the tombstone and hesitated for a while, only to inscribe "Tomb of Mrs. Marley, owner of the Iris Hotel" on it.

No epitaph was written.

Because he knew very little about Mrs. Marley, he was not qualified to evaluate her life.

"Is this the end?" the elf swordsman asked.

"Pick some more flowers for her." Li Shanren sighed softly.

Then he left the cemetery and started picking in the garden.

Since he didn't know what kind of flowers Mrs. Marley liked, Li Shanren picked one of every kind of flower in the garden, put it into a bunch, and returned to the tombstone.

The elf swordsman was waiting there, and had already placed a bouquet of flowers. There were not as many types as Li Shanren, but there were many.

"Thank you."

Li Shanren put down the bouquet of flowers in his hand and thanked the elf swordsman.

The swordsman put in a lot of effort when digging the grave pit and carrying the coffin.

Although I don't know what rank he is, it seems that he is quite relaxed.

"I'm just helping out." The elf swordsman nodded, "This is the first time I've seen a human funeral method. It's very special."

"Are there any differences between elves in this regard?" Li Shanren asked casually.

The Elf Swordsman thought for a while and said: "The old elves will sense their own death, and then they will take the initiative to go to the foot of the mother tree and voluntarily return to the embrace of the mother tree. It is said that it is a warm and reassuring experience."

"Sounds pretty good." Li Shanren said.

"Where are you going next?" the elf swordsman asked.

"Go to Olin City."

"It seems we have the same destination. Do you want to go together?" the elf swordsman invited, "I happen to have a map."

"what?"

Li Shanren turned his head and looked at the elf swordsman standing side by side in surprise. He stared at his delicate face that was pretending to be calm for a few seconds, and suddenly laughed.

"Are you afraid that you will go the wrong way again?"

The elf swordsman stood there, silent.

"Okay, then let's go together." Li Shanren agreed, and then issued a warning, "But first, let's make sure that I don't have any thoughts about you, and you don't want to get any benefits from me."

"You can trust the character of an elf." The elf swordsman said, and then extended his right hand to Li Shanren, "My name is Wei Luo."

"Leathern, just call me that."

Li Shanren shook hands with him, indicating that the two had reached a brief alliance.

"However, I have another place to go next, and that place may be dangerous. Do you want to come with me?" Li Shanren asked, "It's better to stay in the city and wait for me to come back."

"Is there going to be a big fight?"

Wei Luo's light green eyes burst into light, faintly excited.

"Maybe." Li Shanren said uncertainly, "Of course, it's also possible that nothing will happen."

"I will go with you!"

"what ever."
