" Prosthetic Leg Handicraft Shop "
Looking at the signboard on the shop's door, Slacking on the Sidelines looked puzzled.
There are actually shops like this in the city.
It's important to know that Snow City is not a tourist city.
The two best-selling items here are only two: alcohol and weapons.
What mercenary or assassin would bother buying handicrafts?
Slacking on the Sidelines didn't understand why Qin Ze had brought them here.
Is she looking to buy a souvenir before returning to Sea Capital?
" Qin Ze," he said in a low voice Slacking on the Sidelines. "We have limited time; we must race against time."
"Shopping is something..."
Qin Ze interrupted him, "We're here to do a mission."
After saying that, Qin Ze pushed open the door.
The wind chimes hanging on the door made a pleasant sound.
Slacking on the Sidelines, exchanged a glance with Passerby A, and followed.
The shop wasn't very big, but it was packed full of things.
The vast majority are handmade wood carvings.
Wood carvings come in various styles, including those featuring mythical creatures.
Each wood carving is exquisitely crafted, displaying the skill of a master craftsman.
Behind the counter, an elderly man lay on a recliner, dozing off by the Furnace Fire.
Hearing the sound of the wind chimes, he glanced up slightly.
"Everything costs one thousand, no bargaining."
After saying that, the old man went back to sleep.
Slacking on the Sidelines with a wooden carving of a mythical beast, saying, "Is this thing made of gold? It's so expensive!"
"With your attitude towards business, you'd be lucky to sell even one unit; the customers would be blind."
The old man snorted coldly, "Buy it or don't, it's up to you."
Qin Ze didn't look at the surrounding wood carvings, but walked straight to the old man and knocked on the counter.
The old man opened his eyes. "What do you want to buy?"
Slacking on the Sidelines over to Qin Ze and peered into the counter.
He wanted to see if his boss had a prosthetic leg.
However, instead of a prosthetic leg, the boss had a wooden prosthetic hand.
Qin Ze said calmly, "I'm not here to buy anything, I'm here to find someone."
The old man remained expressionless. "Then you've come to the wrong place."
"To find someone, you'd have to go to the Inspection Team, or a tavern or something."
"There's only one old man here, with one foot in the grave."
Qin Ze shook his head. "Only you know where the person I'm looking for is."
Upon hearing this, Slacking on the Sidelines understood Qin Ze's meaning.
Does this old man know anything about Leo?
He took out a few banknotes and slapped them on the counter. "Cooperate well, and you'll get your money back."
The old man didn't even glance at it.
"Go outside if you're not buying anything."
Slacking on the Sidelines.
He felt that Qin Ze was being too polite to the old man.
The old adage of respecting the elderly and caring for the young doesn't work in Snow City.
There is only one principle and rule in Snow City.
That's a fist.
Whoever has the stronger fist is right.
Qin Ze stopped Slacking on the Sidelines with a single glance.
Then, he smiled slightly and said to the old man, "Sir, you don't want your identity to be known throughout the city, do you?"
The old man's eyes widened instantly, as if he had become a different person, and a murderous aura emanated from him.
Qin Ze remained fearless. "I really can't think of a more suitable place to live in seclusion than Snow City, don't you think?"
The old man stared into Qin Ze's eyes. "Are you threatening me?"
Qin Ze shook his head. "Where is the threat? I'm explaining the principles to you."
The old man scoffed, "Don't think I'm afraid just because there are two of you."
"Ahem~" Passerby A cleared his throat. "There are three."
The old man frowned.
Where did this person come from?
Qin Ze said calmly, "Don't be nervous. We just want to ask you to find someone. We won't bother you afterwards."
The old man was silent for a moment. "Did he send you?"
Qin Ze nodded.
The old man sneered, "They're birds of a feather, equally detestable."
"Tell me, who are you looking for?"
Qin Ze smiled and said, " The Twelve Zodiac Signs, Leo."
The old man raised his eyebrows. "The one who came to Snow City a few days ago?"
Qin Ze nodded. "It seems we really did find the right person."
The old man warned, "The three of you combined can't even beat one of their hands. You'd better not go and get yourself killed."
Qin Ze said calmly, "We have our reasons. You just need to tell us his location."
The old man opened his eyes wide.
His gaze gradually deepened, as if he could see through everything in the world.
A moment later, the old man's eyes reddened, and tears streamed from the corners of his eyes.
He rubbed his eyes. "The factory in the north of the city."
Qin Ze clasped his hands in thanks. "Thank you."
The old man lay back down on the recliner and said casually, "Tell that brat to come back; we're running out of timber."
Qin Ze paused at the door, then said, "I will pass on the message."
After leaving the Prosthetic Leg Handicraft Shop, Slacking on the Sidelines, couldn't wait to ask, "Who is he?"
Through the conversation just now, Slacking on the Sidelines realized that the other party was someone of great importance.
He had been living in Snow City for many years and had never heard of the old man's name.
Qin Ze had only been there a short time, yet he already knew of the old man's existence.
Moreover, the Dew Duo's investigation had yielded no results in the past two days, but Qin Ze determined the direction in less than an hour.
This left me with a deep sense of frustration, Slacking on the Sidelines.
Qin Ze casually remarked, "A retired employee of the Inspection Team."
"Let's go, let's go take a look at that factory."
The old man had served in the military, worked as an assassin, and also served in the Inspection Team.
Nickname: Thousand-Mile Eye.
As the name suggests, ability means being able to see far ahead.
Knowing someone's appearance and having them within range of your ability allows you to pinpoint their location.
Several years ago, the old man went into seclusion in Snow City and opened a small shop.
The information about the old man was found by Thousand Faces in the archives of the Inspection Team.
In addition, the clones love exploring maps, and they have measured every corner of Snow City.
Thousand Faces thus discovered the reclusive old man and tried his best to stay in the shop as an apprentice.
Although the old man had an eccentric personality, he surprisingly got along well with Thousand Faces.
Before going to the Abyss with Qin Ze, Thousand Faces greeted the old man.
Perhaps it was because they had grown fond of each other over time, the old man told Thousand Faces his identity and abilities, and told him that he could ask him for help if he had any trouble.
The rascal the old man was talking about was none other than Thousand Faces.
The Son of the Version Son of the Version.
Even though he is no longer in the martial arts world, his legend lives on everywhere.
Soon, Qin Ze and his two companions arrived at the factory in the north of the city.
At first, they thought it was an abandoned factory.
The factory has a large area, making it suitable for hiding.
But when they arrived, they discovered that the factory was still operating and was owned by the company.
Members of the two Mobile Team are currently standing guard at the entrance.
"That's confirmed!" exclaimed excitedly Slacking on the Sidelines.
" The Twelve Zodiac Signs are indeed colluding with the company!"
Qin Ze looked towards the factory buildings in the distance.
This factory is too big.
Without knowing the exact location of Leo, Brother Yuanzi appearance would only alert the enemy.
That's all he and the Dew Duo can do; the rest has to be left to the professional Inspection Team.
Guess where I am!
Yangyang Thousand Faces voice came from the Local Area Network.
Before Qin Ze and the others could ask, Thousand Faces continued, "I'm at the factory in the north of the city!"
"The box is inside, or more precisely, it's right next to me."
"Should we work together from the inside and outside to get the box out?"
Qin Ze was overjoyed.
The Son of the Version is still making a strong push.
