When Arata sent his younger brother to run closer, he found that there were other people here besides the boss. He scratched his head and asked: "Who are you..." They didn't look like samurai, and they were just young boys and girls he had never seen before.

"Another guy who doesn't know us." Paimon was too lazy to tell the name of the Traveler Team, nor did he want to explain anything over and over again, "We are Ichito's friends. We are here to help him investigate the truth."

Aratake Ichito nodded proudly, "Yes! They are my friends." As expected, they were also attracted by my personal charm.

I was skeptical. I hadn't heard that the boss had made new friends. Could it be that...he met them in the prison of the magistrate's office? Oh, now is not the time to think about these things!

"Boss! We found a victim who had just been robbed. He is now hiding in an abandoned military camp. Let's go find him and ask about the situation!"

I took Ichito Arataki and the traveler team to look for them.

"Ghost! Another ghost!" The victim was a traveling businessman. He immediately panicked when he saw the tall and strong Arotaki Ichito with ghost horns.

Arata Ichito stepped forward to support him, letting him see his face clearly, "I'm not the one who robbed you, don't be afraid!"

After being comforted by Aratake Ichito for a while, the merchant calmed down and recalled the circumstances and details of his robbery.

"I was transporting goods when I was attacked by a group of wandering warriors. I've encountered this kind of thing a few times before, and usually I paid them money to avoid disaster. Not only would they be safe, but I would also get some of my goods left."

"But this group of people is different this time!" The businessman said this with fear, "They didn't even talk to me! Not only did they rob my money and things, they also wanted to attack me!"

Not only does he want money, he also wants to kill people. Hearing this, Sora frowned.

Paimon was also very angry, "This is too much! Crack down! Must crack down!"

"I knelt down at that time. I have elderly parents and young children to take care of, and I must not let anything go wrong while doing business." The businessman begged for mercy decisively, but the robber refused to give in.

Finally, a ghost among the robbers stopped his accomplices and demanded that the merchant be released.

"They had an internal conflict. His accomplices thought that if they let me go, I would definitely take revenge on them. But the young ghost insisted that they shouldn't attack me, and they almost came to a fight."

"Anyway, taking advantage of their internal strife, and with the help of the ghost tribe who intentionally or unintentionally helped to stop the pursuers, I crawled here to seek shelter. Now I don't want to leave here at all."

Su stroked his chin and thought for a few seconds before coming to a conclusion, "It seems that the ghost has indeed joined the bad guys, but he has not completely fallen and still has a little conscience."

"He only steals things and doesn't attack people. It seems he has a bottom line." Ara Taki Ichito breathed a sigh of relief, but was more puzzled. "But why would he do such a thing?"

Why would the ghosts lose their pride to rob and do bad things? He must find out the answer!

The merchant said that he was robbed near Nashii Beach, so the Traveler Group and the Arata Faction rushed there together.

"This is the only way between the two islands. It is indeed a good place for robbery." Kong checked the messy footprints and the wooden cart that had been robbed of all its goods, and concluded: "And the robbers must have a base nearby."

If the base was far away, the robbers would have to use wooden carts to transport such a large amount of goods.

The decision to abandon the wooden cart and move the goods directly by manpower shows that the other party is very alert and does not want to leave any tracks to be tracked, and it also shows that the base is close enough to do so.

"Great job, brother! I didn't expect you to have this skill!" Arata Ichito patted Sora's shoulder and laughed, "With you here, we will definitely be able to find out the truth."

Sora and the members of the Aratake faction searched the area, but could not find any trace of the robbers.

The ashes of the bonfire on the roadside were still a little warm, and leftover bones and broken wine jars were scattered everywhere. It was obvious that the robbers had a big meal not long ago.

The Arata Faction member exclaimed, "It's as if they burrowed into the ground and disappeared! Their base is really well hidden."

"Or we can ask Tianling Fengxing to send more people to conduct a carpet search." Su felt that this group of cancerous cells could not be kept for long.

“No!” The members of the Arakaki faction were horrified and waved their hands repeatedly, “The Tianling Bugxing people are coming, they will definitely arrest us first!”

Paimon remembered, "Oh, right, I forgot you guys resisted arrest and escaped."

"How about we disguise ourselves as a passing caravan, lure them out and rob them?" Kong made a suggestion.

"What a good idea!" Arata Ichito put his arm around Sora's shoulders, "You are worthy of being my good brother!"

In just a short period of time, the relationship between Kong and Arotaki Ichito tripled, from friends to good brothers.

As the leader of the Arata Faction, Ichito Aratake spoke solemnly, "So the first thing we have to do now is——!"

Everyone present was looking at him.

"--Roasted Violets!" Boss Arakaki finished his speech.

Paimon was stunned, "Why roasted violets? Are we going to pretend to be merchants selling violets?" Can such a small business attract robbers to rob?

"No," Aratake Ichito touched his stomach, "I'm preparing for the upcoming battle. I need to eat well before the fight so I can have strength!"

"I think you're just hungry." Paimon muttered, watching the younger brothers of the Huanglong faction diligently picking violets and looking for firewood, and finally sitting around the fire waiting for Huanglong to roast the violets.

"Here." Arataki Ito handed the first roasted melon to Su, "It is the tradition of our Arataki sect that any delicious and fun things are given to girls first."

"Yes, yes, this is the tradition of our Aratake sect." The younger brothers echoed, "In the past, Sister Shinobu was always given priority in choosing."

Is their Aradaki faction going to welcome a new female member? Wow, she is worthy of being the boss!

Su took the roasted violet melon with the branch stuck in it, "Sister Shinobu?"

"Shinobu is the only girl in our Arotaki faction. Wow, it's so hot." Arotaki Ichito flipped the hot violet melon back and forth between his hands. "She taught us how to roast the violet melon. It's super delicious! Shinobu has a professional chef certificate."

"Yes, yes, yes! Sister Shinobu is the most promising one in our Aratake sect!" The younger brother said admiringly, "She loves to study! Not only does she have a chef's license, she also has a finance license, a lawyer's license, and so on and so forth. It's such a huge pile!"

"It's because Sister Shinobi has these impressive certificates that we can get commissions with good salaries." Another younger brother added: "Sister Shinobi receives the work, and then gives us part of it to do, and gives us a share."

"If it weren't for Sister Shinobu, we in the Arawaki sect would have been out of food long ago. Before Sister Shinobu joined the Arawaki sect..." The last little brother recalled the miserable life in the past, "Following Boss Yidou, we would go hungry nine times out of three days."

And being hungry for three days is not the boss’ limit, it is their limit, wuwuwuwu.
