The Ghost of Fog
Chapter 45. The face of Lin Tian
It was three days after the battle in the middle of the forest. During that time there was no interference or threat from the Black faction Alliance.
Lin Tian still chose to stay at that simple inn house. He added to the cost of staying there longer.
Actually Hu Tao had already made an offer for this young man to stay at his residence, it would remain that Lin Tian refused on the grounds of not wanting to be troublesome.
During these three days, Lin Tian did not immediately leave White River City was due to Hu Tao's request for help from him to join guarding this city for several days.
Lin Tian agreed, also he wanted to be here a little longer to just relax.
Today was supposed to be Lin Tian's last day to stay in this city. And to say thank you as well as farewell, Hu Tao invited him to dinner tonight.
This morning, the sky looks cloudy. The sunlight shone a little dim because it was covered in white clumps.
Lin Tian was currently thinking about how to meet with the Heavenly Crow Association. While walking around the city that had been filled with many people and then tares, this young man was unceasingly thinking about it.
As soon as he reached the crossroad in front of the three-story building. He saw that the building was very quiet and the door was tightly closed.
But there was one thing that made him frown. Lin Tian looked in front of the door of the first-floor building sat eight women who were just as beautiful and equally elegant.
Eight women were sitting on the steps of the entrance, some on dry ground, on rocks or in the thick grass in front of the building.
They wear a dark yellow robe combined with a heart-red color. Beautiful and graceful, those were the most appropriate words to describe them.
"W...!!" exclaimed one of the women when he saw the figure of Lin Tian standing from a distance.
Hearing this call, the seven others turned their heads towards the direction the woman was looking at.
"Was he?"
"It's true, I remember!! I was the one who served him so he ordered food!"
"I was upstairs, so I didn't know."
There were two girls conversing as soon as they saw Lin Tian.
Indeed the one who saw Lin Tian back then was only three people. They were Yin Yin and two other servant girls.
As soon as Yin Yin saw the young man from afar. Quickly he got up to his feet followed by all the servants and said, "Come!"
While Lin Tian looked astonished at the group of eight people who saw him so suddenly they immediately came to him.
"Master!" yin Yin Exclaimed as soon as it reached nearby.
Lin Tian was just silent, as he was still confused by what was happening.
Then, they suddenly bowed deeply and said, "Thank you Sir!!"
Suddenly this surprised the surrounding residents who were passing near it. They soon became the center of attention of the surrounding community.
The young man stumbled behind his mask.
"Huh? Wait, what's going on?" asked Lin Tian in a surprised tone.
"We better talk inside, I'm not comfortable with all the views that are addressed to us. Let's Master, as well as to convey our gratitude, we've prepared quite a delicious dish for Master." replied Yin Yin kindly while smiling sweetly.
After that, Yin Yin led the way and followed her seven servants. There were no longer any flirtatious or seductive gazes from them, much different when Lin Tian first came there.
Unwillingly, Lin Tian followed them as well. He was also thinking of asking the information regarding the Heavenly Crow Association to this woman named Yin Yin.
...****************...
"Silahlan Master" Yin Yin said as she invited Lin Tian to sit down.
They are currently on the first floor which is usually used as a place to eat.
After Lin Tian sat down, the eight people then also sat down in their respective seats. They sat in a circle on the edge of a round table.
"Master, I represent all the servants here, wanting to express gratitude for you killing those six depraved people. If only there was no Master to help, maybe the fate of the restaurant and inn of my late father is still the same as before" said Yin Yin while slightly bowed.
"Oh yes..introduce my name Yin Yin, if you don't mind, may I know the name of Master?"
"Lin Tian." the young man replied briefly.
"Areally who the hell are they?" then he asked.
Yin Yin Yin revealed an expression that was difficult to interpret. After a moment of silence, he finally replied.
"He's the criminals who smuggled into this town. Ever since the Hu family was led by Hu Kai, the city has never been as safe as it once was. It's full of criminals and robbers, especially black warriors."
"The six of them were people who claimed to be helpers of the Black faction Alliance. So that we did not dare to fight and surrender at all. Although we have a little basic silat science, but seeing the large group behind it, we don't dare to mess around." Yin Yin Yin explained while bowing her sad face.
"Then that night you..."
"Yes, that's what I did to protect them all." Yin Yin Yin replied cutting Lin Tian's words. He answered, looking at the seven servants.
"You mean?" Lin Tian still looked confused.
Hearing this Madam's words, the seven of their faces suddenly became sad and gloomy.
"They call you madam, where's your husband?"
Hearing this question, Yin Yin's heart seemed to be pierced with thousands of needles. Then suddenly she cried and answered.
"He.he.he was killed by them.hiks."
"Oh.pardon me.." replied Lin Tian who felt bad.
After which, Yin Yin Yin instantly wiped away her tears and acted as if nothing had happened. Then he invited Lin Tian to eat together.
Not long after, the servants served various kinds of food on the table. Lin Tian was surprised to see this, because all of these foods were the food from the most expensive menu of this restaurant!!
"This..isn't it too much?" said Lin Tian.
"What a sign of our friendship" Yin Yin said with a smile.
Actually he invited Lin Tian to eat together was because he was eager to see the look behind the mask. If he ate, he would definitely take off his mask, that was how he thought.
However, he had to be disappointed to see how Lin Tian ate. The young man ate in an extraordinary way, which was in exactly the same way as when he first ate here.
For a moment the food was gone and everyone there just looked dumbly.
"Madam, you said this was our friendship, right?"
"True Master." replied Yin Yin nervously as she was still amazed by Lin Tian's actions just now.
"Then can you help me?" asked Lin Tian back.
"Of course Sir!" yin Yin Excited excitedly. Likewise with the other seven girls, their faces look radiant.
"Can you tell me where the headquarters of the Celestial Crow Association is in this city?"
Their radiant faces slowly disappeared, replaced with astonished and question-marked looks.
"Em...that's all Mister?" yin Yin finally asked.
"Only that." replied Lin Tian briefly.
Silent moment. Then Yin Yin Yin said, "Sorry Master, but as far as I know, the headquarters of the association no one is in the big cities. Moreover, it was aimed at the city of power of the ruling family."
"But I've heard of them setting up secret bases in remote villages or places. I have also heard this association has a headquarters in the village of Tanah Rain which is located far south there." explained Yin Yin
The radiant face of Lin Tian. This was what he had been waiting for, finally after such a long time, he would get information about his young Miss from this association.
There was only one step left, which was to go to the village of Tanah Rain and come to them.
"Then thank you for the banquet. I beg you to pay."
Rushing Lin Tian got up and was about to come out. But his steps were stopped due to the call from the hostess.
"Wait Mister!"
"Hm?"
Yin Yin was silent for a moment. Then his face flushed a little. Lin Tian who saw this then asked, "What's wrong?"
"Em...b-can I see my best friend's face?" yin Yin said a little embarrassed.
Lin Tian did not immediately reply. He thought for a moment about choosing the best decision.
Lin Tian finally decided to grant his request. After all they are good people, I might be able to ask them for their help for the future advancement of the Zhang family, this young man thought.
"I'm just telling you, be careful of the Black Class Alliance. If they take revenge, go meet Hu Tao. He's someone you can trust."
While saying so, Lin Tian removed his mask. After the greeting stopped, he again put on the mask and walked leisurely away from there.
"Bruck-bruck"
The seven servant girls suddenly fell to the floor with very red faces.
"T-sampannya.." they murmured before completely fainting.
Yin Yin Yin still looked dumbly towards Lin Tian's departure. His face was also not much different from the seven maids.
Then suddenly Yin Yin Yin banged her face against the table so hard that it made the female jidat bleed. After that, he also collapsed onto the floor.
"Basar women cheap...!..remember Yin Yin Yin..kau...had had..husband and son...could you be fascinated with the face of another man....You lowly woman!!" after that, he fainted.
...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...
