In the three-bedroom, one-living-room apartment, Ashe looked at Lisanna who was playing Spirit Cards with Lauren and asked.

"Just make some normal food. By the way, be careful when you go out to buy groceries. I always feel that the atmosphere in this area is a little off."

Seeing that Ashe was about to go out to buy groceries, Lisanna gave her some advice.

The area where they are currently located is home to a large number of outsiders, and this environment has unsurprisingly become an outlet for the local residents' fear and hatred.

The local residents now see everyone as the air pirates' lackeys, causing chaos in the area and making it impossible for them to live in peace.

But there is nothing we can do about it.

Eighty percent of the crew members on the slaughtered airships were from Eclipse Port.

"Yeah, okay, I'll pay attention."

With a slight nod, Ash put on his coat and left the house.

There is a market not far from where they live now. When the three of them first moved in, the things sold in the market were of good quality and low price.

But as more and more airships had accidents, supplies from outside could not get in, and supplies from inside could not get out. The prices of some goods continued to rise, and they became things that ordinary people could not afford.

Looking at the deserted streets, Ashe walked slowly towards the market.

In the shadows of the street, a few idle guys followed Ashe, with obscene and anxious expressions on their faces.

They haven't eaten for most of the day.

The vendors at the market had sold out their stock yesterday. Guys like them, who used to make a living by extortion and petty theft, are now completely out of food.

The workmanship and material of Ashley's clothes were not something that ordinary people could afford. Coupled with her beautiful face and graceful figure, these thugs immediately had evil intentions.

"MD, after we finish this job, we have to have a good meal and drink. We need to keep an eye on her when we make our move. If this woman is not of high rank, we will lock her up and keep her there for the whole day..."

After wiping the saliva from the corner of his mouth, one of the thugs discussed the issue of how to deal with Ashe in an obscene tone.

But at this moment, Ashe, who was walking on the street, suddenly disappeared.

The gangsters dared to swear that she really disappeared "suddenly". They didn't even see clearly whether Ashe had any special movements before disappearing.

"Wait! Where is the person? Could this guy be a wanderer?"

The thugs were frantically looking for Ashe, like hyenas who had lost their meat, their eyes beginning to turn bloodshot.

They were too busy thinking and even subconsciously ignored the fact that Ashe might be better at fighting than them.

"Are you looking for me?"

Just as the three thugs were about to walk out of the shadows, Ashley's gentle voice suddenly sounded from deep in the alley behind them.

The thugs turned around to look, but suddenly lost their sight.

Immediately afterwards, their recent memories seemed to be pulled out.

“Plop!”

The sounds of heavy objects falling to the ground overlapped as Ashe wiped the blood from her face and walked out of the alley.

"They are really just a few thugs. I thought they were slave traders or accomplices of sky pirates."

With a helpless sigh, Ashe continued walking towards the market while reading the memories of these thugs.

However, when she was halfway there, she learned from the gangster's memory that the market was closed.

Sighing, she turned back helplessly.

Whether it was a coincidence or bad luck, she just walked into the alley and saw several people from the Sheriff's Bureau standing there. One of the sheriffs was trying to talk to the deceased and ask for information about him.

However, Ashe was an experienced person. When killing these people, she deliberately made the scene a bit grand and made the corpses lose the ability to speak.

Pretending to not care and letting his eyes glance past the security officers, Ash continued to walk slowly towards the house rented by the three people.

But trouble sometimes finds itself.

After confirming that the body could not provide any useful clues, the sheriff in the alley wanted to come out for some fresh air, but suddenly saw Ashe.

His breathing suddenly became heavy, and the expression on his face suddenly became obscene.

"Wait! Ma'am! We need your cooperation in this investigation!"

Without hesitation, the sheriff shouted out this universal phrase.

The two sheriffs who came with him looked at him with a slightly disdainful look, but then leaned against the walls on both sides, looking forward to how things would develop next.

The sheriff who spoke just now used this method to persecute many people, extorting money from men and bodies from women.

As "colleagues", they can occasionally get a share of the pie.

Compared with the public security in the main plane of Khorvaire, although these large cities in the Elemental Plane of Air are also learning advanced systems, the ethics of law enforcement officers are obviously far behind. Not to mention places like Eruden or Aundair, Zirag, and Thrane, even the Shadow Marshes are probably better than them.

If the race of these sheriffs were replaced with minotaurs or trolls, Hope might be able to feel the feeling of his hometown (Zrom) here.

When Ashe heard the sheriff calling her, she did not panic, but turned around and looked over.

The subtle psychic energy expanded outward and soon determined the malice and desires that these sheriffs had towards him.

"Oops, I forgot that the law enforcers here are beasts in disguise..."

With a gleam in her eyes, Ashe crouched down and rushed forward.

Psychic energy lit up from her eyes, and the eyes of the three sheriffs also lit up with the light of psychic energy.

With her arms open, Ashe was about to cast a spell of enchantment to modify the memories of these three people, and then leave. However, just as she cast the spell, the epaulettes on the three sheriffs suddenly made a harsh sound.

Ashe's concentration was soon interrupted. Without having time to check the status of the three people, she directly activated psychic teleportation and teleported away.

“Crack!”

It was a three-bedroom, one-living-room house. Ash wiped the sweat from his forehead and walked into the house.

Lisanna and Lauren looked towards the door following the noise and noticed something strange happening to Ash.

Looking at her two companions, Ashe pursed her lips and said with some self-blame:

"Sorry, I seem to have gotten into some trouble..."

Afterwards, Ashley told Lisanna and Lauren what had just happened.

"Are these considered serious crimes in Eclipse Port?"

Lisanna rubbed her chin, imitating Carl's behavior, and her voice did not reveal any emotion.

"I don't know, but the piercing alarms from the shoulder badges of the three sheriffs made me a little panicked. If Eclipse Harbor really wants to investigate..."

Thinking of this, Ashe gritted her teeth secretly.

Suddenly, Lisanna stood up from her chair.

"In order to prevent them from coming to our door, let's retreat first!"

Lisanna clenched her hands into fists and spoke with a firm look in her eyes.
