Although Clement said he was fine, Gu Xingmian was still worried, so the next day, he sneaked out again with Gugu and Harman.

The city of Denning looked as peaceful as usual, but there seemed to be an undercurrent.

This time, Gu Xingmian had experience, so he sold a supplementary card and went into a roadside tavern with money in his pocket.

Although it was broad daylight, the atmosphere in the tavern was very lively.

"I don't know what happened at the black market last night. There was a lot of noise all night. I couldn't sleep well all night!"

"I heard that Bill and Tate teamed up to raid Fulton last night and robbed a lot of his territory!"

"For no reason, Fulton has offended the public?"

Everyone was gossiping when the door of the tavern was suddenly opened. A man walked into the tavern and sat down at the bar: "Boss, give me a drink!"

"Hey! Henry! You've been busy all night!"

"You got a lot from the attack on Fulton this time, right?"

The man named Henry was a subordinate of Bill, the black market boss who suddenly attacked Fulton yesterday.

He yawned and replied to everyone's questions in a disjointed manner.

"By the way, Henry, why did your boss suddenly go to attack Fulton?" Someone asked curiously.

Henry crossed his legs and glanced at the empty wine glass.

The person who asked the question immediately rolled his eyes: "You can say it if you want."

Gu Xingmian listened for a long time and finally heard the key information. He hurried over, took the initiative to order a glass of wine for Henry, and praised him a few words in a subtle way.

Henry was flattered, and then he pretended to be mysterious and said: "You don't know, Fulton is in big trouble this time!"

"Why?"

"I heard that Fulton offended someone he couldn't afford to offend. The other party killed people in his territory and robbed his warehouse."

At this point, Henry was quite gloating, "Who made Fulton so arrogant? Now he has kicked the iron plate!"

"That's right! Fulton, that fat guy, I have seen that he is not a good person..."

"Not only Fulton! Bill and the others are not good people either..."

Gu Xingmian heard that they were getting more and more off topic, and hurriedly brought the topic back: "Then do you know which big guy he offended?"

"I heard he's a very powerful card master!" Henry said seriously.

Gu Xingmian clenched his fists, afraid that he would hear information about himself or Clement from him.

Then he saw Henry open his hands and said with admiration: "This gentleman seems to have come from the south, he is very tall and strong. Do you know what the point is? His God Card is a dragon! Do you know what a dragon is..."

Gu Xingmian: "..."

Do people in your city have some kind of rumor-mongering syndrome? !

But he also figured it out.

If people knew that Fulton had kidnapped people and caused the warehouse to be robbed, he would probably become the laughing stock of the entire Denning City. It would be better to spread the other party's powerful story to at least save some respect for himself.

But once the rumor spread, he and Clement were really safe.

Gu Xingmian felt relieved and went to find Clement directly.

Clement was not drinking, which was rare. Instead, he was absent-minded, and no one knew what he was thinking about.

Gu Xingmian's sudden appearance startled him, and he stammered, "You... why are you here?"

Gu Xingmian sat down next to him familiarly: "Are you surprised? Are you surprised?"

Clement thought that after that day, he and Gu Xingmian would never see each other again.

Because of the previous experience of sharing hardships, Clement was still very happy to see Gu Xingmian again, but after hearing Gu Xingmian's purpose, he was no longer happy.

"You're going to rob a warehouse in the black market?!"

"Hah!" Gu Xingmian covered his mouth, "Don't say bad things so loudly, and it's not me, it's us."

Clement: "..."

The worst mistake he made in his life was that he didn't firmly refuse Gu Xingmian's offer to send him back that day, no! He shouldn't have been so mean as to pinch that damn mushroom! !

His expression was indescribable: "Why me?"

Gu Xingmian said sincerely: "The first time I saw you, I thought you were a good man who robs the rich to give to the poor!"

Clement: "..."

What on earth made you have such a misunderstanding of me, and now it's at most "rob the rich to give to the rich", right?

Gu Xingmian wanted to say something, but Clement seemed to have made up his mind: "Okay, I promise you."

Gu Xingmian: "!"

He thought Clement would reject him, and he prepared a lot of words, but he didn't expect that he could win him over with just a few flattery words, which made him a little worried about the cooperation between the two.

Clement pretended not to see his expression and said seriously: "I have something to tell you. After you listen to it, decide whether to cooperate with me."

Gu Xingmian: "You say."

Clement said: "My full name is Clement Meloen, I am the eldest son of one of the Meloen families in the Central City."

There are five main cities in the Saint Rovis continent, the cities where the four major card academies are located, and the Central City where the Central Temple is located.

Central City is the most central city in Saint Roberts. There are many ancient noble families, and the Meloen family is one of them.

Clement said that a few years ago, they lost to another tribe in the struggle for power and were driven out of Central City. Although the other party did not kill him, they have been sending people to monitor him.

"Anyone who comes into contact with me will be strictly investigated by them." Clement smiled bitterly, "I don't want to cause trouble for others because of me."

This is why he doesn't help others openly, but uses the name of an accident.

He has no relatives, no friends, no lover, and he has to pretend to be a drunkard and a dissolute person. Such a painful life has not changed until he met Gu Xingmian.

However, he watched Gu Xingmian remain silent and thought that he had listened to his words and decided to give up on him. Although this was what he expected, he still couldn't suppress the loss in his heart.

Clement clenched his fists, raised his head at a 45-degree angle to the sky, and tried hard to restrain his sadness: "I understand everything. People like me are destined to have no friends..."

"Um..." Gu Xingmian interrupted him somewhat awkwardly, "Do you know these two people?"

Clement lowered his head and saw two card masters lying at his feet with foam at the mouth. These were the two people responsible for monitoring him.

Clement: "!!!"

Gu Xingmian said embarrassedly: "When I came to look for you, I saw them acting sneaky, and I thought they were Fulton's people, so I knocked them out."

"It should be... nothing, right?"

Clement: "..."

He suddenly felt that he shouldn't worry about causing trouble for Gu Xingmian, after all, Gu Xingmian's ability to cause trouble was much stronger.

At this point, he didn't hesitate anymore, but just suggested that some preparations should be made before robbing the warehouse.

Gu Xingmian: "Of course, do you think I'm such a reckless person?"

Clement: "..."

Don't you have any self-awareness about yourself? !

In the next few days, Gu Xingmian kept traveling between Mosca Academy and Denning City, enthusiastically discussing the robbery plan with Clement.

His busy schedule of leaving early and returning late attracted Xiao Qiong's attention.

Xiao Qiong asked him several times, but he always fooled him. Xiao

Qiong saw that he couldn't get anything out of him, so he thought of Gu Gu and Harman who went out with him, so he turned around and found Eric and Fu Fenglin.

However, in order to keep up with Xiao Qiong's course progress, the two of them were exhausted every day and neglected their own cards.

Fu Fenglin felt a little distressed: "I don't know what Gugu has been busy with recently. He seems to be very tired. As soon as he comes back, he goes into his spiritual body and sleeps soundly."

Eric shook his head: "Chuancan is fine, but he seems to have not beaten me for a long time..."

Xiao Qiong: "..."

Fu Fenglin: "..."

Xiao Qiong said seriously: "Gu Xingmian has been mysterious recently. He comes back very late every day and goes to sleep as soon as he comes back. He doesn't communicate with me. He is absent-minded when I talk to him..."

Xiao Qiong's words instantly resonated with the other two.

The three of them talked one after another, as if they were three worried old fathers who suddenly encountered the crisis of their children's rebellion. The more they talked, the more frightened they felt.

Eric was worried, "They won't do anything bad, will they?"

Fu Fenglin immediately retorted, "Our Gugu is so innocent, it must be the cards outside that corrupted him!"

Xiao Qiong's expression became increasingly serious as they said this, and he said in a deep voice, "Take a leave tomorrow, and we must find out what they are doing!"
