Hillston District.

   Xifa, wearing a worker's uniform, walked out of the exit of the Backlund subway, and found himself a little out of tune with the people coming and going here.

   This is the economic, commercial and financial center of Backlund, with various stock exchanges, clearing houses, futures centers, the headquarters of the seven major banks, and various trading companies.

   Therefore, almost all men in this area are dressed in formal attire and top hats, making them look personable.

   The blonde girl walked in front and said with a headache: "I knew you were coming to the Hillston area. I should find you a formal suit."

   "Forget it, let's go to Yilin Street quickly."

   Although Sifa has read relevant reports from Backlund in various newspapers and magazines, this is the first time he has come to Backlund.

   Come to this prosperous city with a population of more than 5 million!

   Looking around, there is a pale yellow mist everywhere, and the visibility is extremely poor, and it looks more gloomy and darker than the night in Tingen.

   But here is a lot more lively than Tingen, it's already past nine o'clock in the evening, but there are still people coming and going.

   There are cement-paved avenues, there are street lawns and gardens with chimneys, various shops and company office buildings, and Xifa is dazzled.

   It was hard to come to Double Tree Avenue, which is one of the few residential areas in Hillston District. At first glance, they are all townhouses with unified planning.

The girl in front muttered: "The cheapest rent here is 1 pound per week, which is much more expensive than what we rent. However, it is also a lot of lively. The guys who can live here should be quite rich... ."

   Xifa caught up with the girl who was muttering in front: "I don't know what your name is yet?"

   The blonde girl kept walking and said: "You paid, and I will show you the way. After tonight, we will know no one, just forget the name."

   "If you have to inquire, I took your 10 pound payment, so I can call me 10 pound lady."

   looks young, but he is very cautious and does not leave his name casually.

   Xifa smiled and said, "You are willing to lead a stranger who has never met before. This kindness and enthusiasm is invaluable to me."

   The blonde girl glanced at him: "Glib tongue, if I didn't know that you are a hunter, I would think you are a nobleman. Only they would compliment a woman in this tone."

   Although she said so, there was a hint of joy in the girl's eyes.

   "The front is number 12, I'm going back."

   She stopped suddenly, said briefly, turned around and left without giving Sifa a chance to talk.

  Sifah shrugged, looked at the numbers on the houses, and found room 12.

   He stepped forward, came to the door, and rang the rattle.

   After a while, the door opened, and a warm light was lit from inside. A man in a white shirt and black vest stood in front of the door, looking at the worker-like person in front of him questioningly: "Sir, who are you looking for?"

   Sifa raised his head and smiled brightly: "Good evening, Cromwell."

  ...

   On a street in the Eastern District, a blonde girl walked into a house. As soon as she entered the living room, she heard the sound of the door opening. Following that, a lazy figure came out.

Under the light, it was a woman with slightly curly brown hair. Her light blue eyes swept lazily towards the blond girl sharing the room: "Did you see my coffee beans and cigarettes? Without them, my inspiration would be fast." Exhausted."

   "I don't think you have the intention to catch up with the draft now." The blonde girl said as she looked through familiarly to find out what her friend wanted.

   The lazy brunette woman took out a cigarette from a friend and held it gracefully with two fingers: "Weird, you didn't go out to buy food, how come you have been there for so long."

   The blonde girl sat down on the sofa: "I bumped into a guy who just came to Backlund, and I showed him the way."

"Yes?"

   lit the cigarette, leaned against the wall and inhaled lightly. The brunette woman smiled and said, "When did you become so warm-hearted?"

   "I have always been very enthusiastic!" The blonde girl caught her rough hair, "and, they paid. Although it's a little far away, I have to go to the Hillston area."

   "Go to Hillston? Those who go there usually don't lack money. How much does he give?" The brunette woman spit out a smoke ring and watched them spread and disappear in the air.

   "10 pounds."

"How many?"

   The blonde girl turned her head and looked at her friend: "10 pounds."

   "10 pounds? I'm afraid it's not a fool. I can take him around for 10 pounds. Of course, it's not time to go out. We have to be careful to be targeted by the big pirate."

   The brunette woman shrugged her scented shoulders: "But even without Zillinger, I don't want to go out. It's too much trouble."

   "To choose the right clothes, matching hats and shoes, it is a headache to think about it..."

   As she muttered, she returned to her room: "It's getting late, good night."

"Good night."

  ...

   September 6th, Thursday.

   Joe Wood District, morning.

   Two figures walking on the street, they are all wearing pure black formal wear, wearing a half-top hat, carrying a hand battle, which completely accords with the description of a gentleman.

   One of them, although he has a beard, does not seem to be very old, and there is an indescribable charm between his dark and deep eyes.

   This makes the lady or lady passing by them can't help but look at the man a few more times.

   "It seems that the number of likes for tags has increased again..." Sifa lowered his head ~www.readwn.com~ pretending not to see the eyes of those women, and then looked around happily.

   After finding Cromwell on Tuesday night, Sifa finally had a place to stay in Backlund, otherwise, judging from his lack of identification, even if he can find a hotel, it is estimated that the environment will not be very good.

   Yesterday morning, Sifa went to the telegraph company and took a telegram to Matthew in Tingen and Bison in Enqi Town.

   He used different excuses to narrate the fact that he was in Backlund right now, and told them that he would go back after staying for one to two weeks at most, so that they didn't need to worry about themselves.

   And in the following time, Cromwell acted as a tour guide, taking Sefa throughout the Hillston area.

   The destination they visited today is the Joe Wood area where they are now.

   "Tomorrow, I will take you to the Queens area. There is a place where nobles and top wealthy businessmen live. The supervision is strict and the environment is beautiful. Every street and every park is as beautiful as the scenery in the painting."

   A smile appeared on Cromwell's face, as if he had walked out of the shadows of the past, and the arbitrator's gray-green eyes were filled with light that was rarely seen.

   Sifa laughed, and at this moment, the shout of a newsboy sounded on the street.

   "Extra! Extraordinary!'Lieutenant General Hurricane' Zillinger was killed in Backlund!"
