"Hmph!
Little guy, you want to get involved with me?
It's too late!
You have done such a big thing this time. No one can save you! "Dounis sneered.
"Big thing?
What big thing? "Chen Mo pretended to be stupid.
"It's useless to pretend that you don't know!
You, come over here! "
Dounis asked the two temple guards to come over, pointed at Chen Mo, and asked, "Is the person you saw him? Is the masked man him?"
"The person we saw looks like him, but is the masked man him …" The two guards replied hesitantly.
Dounis' intention was very simple. He wanted the two guards to admit that the masked man was Chen Mo. With the confession of these two guards, Chen Mo could no longer run away.
Unfortunately, for these two guards to be sent to guard the Divine Miracle Hall, they were definitely upright and plainspoken. They would not be bribed by others. People with bad characters would not be able to become guards of the Divine Miracle Hall.
Therefore, facing Dounis' question, the two temple guards answered hesitantly.
"Hmph!
Don't hesitate anymore. This person first came to Prague, then he knew about the Miracle Hall. After leaving the city, he went to the Miracle Hall to wreak havoc. This is absolutely right! "Dounis said impatiently.
"Hehe, Dounis, do you want this credit so much that you even want to wrongly accuse the adventurer?"
Chen Mo didn't expect Dounis to be so shameless. He wanted to say something, but at this moment, a gentle young man walked in with a smile.
"Auglas, it's none of your business here!
You have nothing to do with the prisoner I caught! "Seeing Auglas walk in, Dounis glared at him unhappily.
"Eh, isn't he the adventurer who helped you win the first place?
Now you're saying that he's a criminal without any evidence?
Tsk tsk, Dounis, if this matter spreads out, I don't know what others will think of you. "
Auglas glanced at Chen Mo a few times and felt a little familiar. Then, he remembered the competition in the City of Sins.
"Hmph!
Auglas, I am upright and plainspoken!
Even if he did me a great favor back then, I've given him enough rewards. He's committed a grave crime this time, so I can't cover for him! "Dounis defended himself in a righteous manner, making it impossible for anyone to refute him.
"Well, let's not talk about this for now. But since you said that he is a criminal, you have to show evidence.
This is Prague, not the place of exile that you manage. You can do whatever you want. "Auglas said slowly.
It was of course a good thing to find the criminals in the Miracle Hall, but from the standpoint of Auglas, if he didn't find the criminals, it would be better if no one could find them.
Therefore, even if the culprit was really Chen Mo, as long as there was no evidence, no matter how suspicious Chen Mo was, he would still speak up for Chen Mo.
"Evidence?
Investigate what he did while he was away from Prague, and everything will be clear! "
With Auglas, Dounis knew that it was impossible to directly pin the crime on Chen Mo, but this was not a problem for him. He knew that the masked man was Chen Mo. As long as Chen Mo investigated Chen Mo's actions during the time he left Prague, he would know if the culprit was him. As long as Chen Mo could not show evidence of what he was doing, Dounis could pin the crime on Chen Mo!
"Ai, I didn't expect Mr. Dounis to be such a person. If I knew earlier, I wouldn't have helped you win the first place in the competition." Chen Mo sighed regretfully at this time.
When he said this, the guards around him looked at Dounis in a bad mood.
If there was evidence, it would be fine. But without evidence, he insisted that a person who helped him a lot was a criminal. This was really chilling.
"Don't talk nonsense. Tell me what you did after leaving Prague!" Dounis was furious. He was a little uncomfortable being stared at by the surrounding eyes.
"I went to do a mission.
Not long after I came to Prague, I went to find Madam Jewel Yuji. When I was in Red Sand City, she presided over my second profession advancement assessment. After I went to find her, she asked me to help her go to the Firefly Forest east of Prague to collect some rare materials for her. "Chen Mo sighed and replied.
Jewel Yuji?
Dounis was taken aback. He never thought that Chen Mo would mention Yuji.
"You're lying!" Dounis firmly believed that Chen Mo was the culprit, so of course, he did not believe it.
The Firefly Forest was east of Prague, and the Miracle Hall was northwest of Prague. Even if the Firefly Forest was not too far away, it was absolutely impossible to run from the Firefly Forest to the Miracle Hall, destroy the Miracle Hall, and return to Prague in terms of time.
What's more, collecting rare materials was a very time-consuming thing.
Moreover, how did Yuji get involved with Chen Mo?
Therefore, Dounis absolutely did not believe Chen Mo's words.
"Whether it is true or not, you will know when you call Madam Jewel Yuji to ask?
You don't even give me a chance to confront. Sir Dounis, do you want to force the crime on me so that you can make a great contribution in arresting the culprit? "Chen Mo glanced at Dounis.
As soon as he said this, the surrounding guards looked at Dounis with a change of gaze again.
"Dounis, you'd better call Yuji over quickly. If it's a little later, I'm afraid your name will spread in Prague." Auglas smiled softly.
"Fine, I don't believe what you said is true!" Dounis was furious. He hated Chen Mo so much, but he had to call Yuji over.
He couldn't wait to catch Chen Mo and ask for the rare seed, but now that Auglas was here, he couldn't mess around.
Yuji had already discussed with Chen Mo, so she was called over for a confrontation. From the outside, she looked very calm.
"Yuji, is what he said false?" Dounis asked Yuji.
"It's true. I just needed some firefly grass to make weapons. When I met him, I asked him to go to the Firefly Forest to help collect some." Yuji replied faintly.
"Why did you ask him to help?
If I remember correctly, you don't have a good relationship with him, right? "Dounis frowned and looked at Yuji.
He really didn't expect Yuji to speak up for Chen Mo. He didn't ask if it was true, but he asked if it was false. He just wanted Yuji to nod and not speak.
As a result, Yuji was singing a different tune from him.
He was Yuji's fiancé. Yuji's approach undoubtedly made him feel extremely inappropriate!
There were already some doubts in his heart, so he couldn't help but ask.
"Why, do I have to get your consent for everything I do?" Yuji glanced at Dounis coldly.
As long as the slave relationship with Chen Mo was still there, it was impossible between her and Dounis. Yuji didn't have a good impression of Dounis. It was just that the family arranged for her to be engaged to Dounis, so she had no choice.
So at the moment, Yuji didn't intend to be polite to Dounis anymore.
Since she would fall out with Dounis sooner or later, it was better to take advantage of the current opportunity to create this sign so that things wouldn't seem too abrupt in the future.
"No, that's not what I mean."
Dounis didn't expect Yuji's reaction to be so big. His doubts deepened, but he could only frown and shake his head at the moment.
"If there's nothing else, I'll go back first." Yuji didn't intend to stay here for long. She turned around and left.
"Hehe, Dounis, it seems that you caught the wrong person." Auglas said with a smile as he watched the development of the incident.
"Sir Dounis, if you can't find direct evidence to prove that I'm the prisoner, I'll leave first. Next, I have to participate in the expedition. The expedition is about to start, so I have to make some preparations in advance." Chen Mo didn't intend to stay for long.
According to the real world program, the chances of him being left behind were still very high. However, the NPCs in the game were still somewhat different from reality, allowing him to take advantage of many loopholes.
Yuji proved Chen Mo's innocence, but Dounis didn't have direct evidence. With Auglas watching by the side, Dounis could only helplessly let Chen Mo leave.
However, Chen Mo saw Dounis' actions this time and knew that his grudge with him was completely settled. In order to avoid trouble, he had to find an opportunity to kill this guy in the future!
Dounis didn't know that he was already on Chen Mo's Grim Reaper's Notebook. He was still trying to see if he could catch Chen Mo and at least force Chen Mo to hand over the rare seed.
However, Dounis didn't have that opportunity for the time being.
Not long after being released, Chen Mo received a notice to gather at the colosseum ahead.
Chen Mo came to the colosseum, reported his game name, and was taken to a spacious and gorgeous room.
In this room, everything in the huge colosseum below could be seen condescendingly. It was an excellent place to watch the colosseum.
In the gorgeous room, there were not many players, only about 200 to 300 people. Compared with the total number of players participating in the expedition mission, the difference was too great.
Chen Mo looked around and saw that almost all of them were solo players. There were very few who appeared in teams.
"Dear adventurers, I'm Balsa, the manager of the colosseum.
The expedition mission was originally planned to start tomorrow, but for some reason, we had to start the expedition mission in advance!
The time left for us has been reduced again. If we postpone it a little more, I'm afraid there is no possibility of completing the expedition mission. "
When the people in the room were almost there, and the total number of people exceeded 300, a kind old man walked out from the end of the room.
Balsa's words stunned the players in the room. Those who were able to come here were undoubtedly expert players who had outstanding performances in the colosseum. From Balsa's words, they could all tell that there was an accident in the mission, forcing the expedition mission to start early. Even if it started early, the expedition mission would be more difficult than before!
Chen Mo's heart sank. The destruction of the Miracle Hall had indeed affected the expedition mission.
Who did this? Blackbeard had received the news in advance. Chen Mo did not think that the Miracle Hall was destroyed for no reason.
