Lin Ye doesn't know why he feels this way. He truly believes that this woman is not a bad person. He had a gut feeling that he was right on this.

Ifrit then said to him, " Do you think all beautiful girls are not bad people?" Ifrit curled her lips and said, "Most men think so."

Lin Ye looked at Ifrit in surprise, "Who taught you these things?"

"Saria." Ifrit shook her head and said, "When I was still in the research institute, there were always some annoying men who gave Silence things. Flowers and snacks are what they usually gave her."

"What then?"

"Then those things were dealt by Saria." Ifrit spread out her hands, "It seemed to be a waste for me. Forget about the flowers, the snacks looked quite delicious. Saria said to Silence that these bluffing men are not credible. What they value is not Silence's heart, but her body."

Then Ifrit asked Lin Ye with some doubts" Hey, why is her body more important? Isn't her heart part of her body?"

Nope. I am not explaining that to her. That's Saria and Olivia's work. Not mine

"Ahem. You don't need to know. Olivia is lucky to have a friend like Saria with her at that time. And for the men that went to Olivia that time, they are one of the worst types of people that you can ever meet. Thinking people like some object is not a good thing to do."

This explanation made Ifrit feel even more confused but she still nodded at him.

"Why then?"

Lin Ye didn't react for a while when Skadi said this.

"What?"

"Why do you think she is a good person just by looking at this photo?" Skadi asked, "Or do you really think that beautiful women are not bad people, just like Ifrit said?"

Lin Ye felt his mouth twitch when he heard her, "Why do you think that? Am I that kind of person? I haven't even-. Forget it."

Lin Ye massaged his forehead.

"Let's think about it. From a rational point of view, why does the Mafia leave pictures of their comrade in their room? This is a bit illogical no matter what you think."

After listening to Lin Ye, Skadi was silent for a while, and asked: "Since you are not like that, Who can she be then?"

Lin Ye did not immediately answer Skadi, but turned to look at Lappland and asked her, "If you are in the Mafia-Oh wait, you are in the mafia. Put your teeth away. I am talking about your past. If you were in the mafia, whose picture would you take with you?"

Lappland thought for a while and said, "Texas."

"Not what I meant. What photo would you want to have when you are in the mafia?"

Lappland went silent for a moment. Then she nodded to herself and answered him.

"Texas"

"... Forget it. Why did I even bother with you?" Lin Ye ignored Lappland for the time being.

He then looks back at Skadi.

"What I am trying to say is that, why does the mafia have their own member photo with them?" He asked them, "The only explanation is that she is not with them in the first place."

Ifrit holds her head, trying her best to follow the conversation.

"So, who is she then?" she asked him.

"In my opinion, she is their prime target or their mission objective." Lin Ye gave them his speculation.

"Objective?" Liz raises a brow.

"Something along like their target to attack." He explained to her, "This is what the mafia usually should do, targeting people for money. Their employer will give them a picture of the person they want and the mafia will do the rest."

He stays quiet for a while to let them understand what he wanted to say. After he was sure that everyone got what meant, he continued.

"And those photos are basically in envelopes. I think the girl in this photo is basically impossible to be an associate with the Lupo mafia. She is probably their target. This can also explain why the woman checked out in the middle of the night. It is very likely that she found something and left the hotel in a hurry."

After listening to Lin Ye's analysis, Skadi thought about it. Then lightly nodded.

"You might be right," She stared at him, "It does make sense."

Lin Ye smiled and said, "Of course, it makes sense."

"But in that case, why would the Lupo go to us instead? The woman in the photo is the target. If what you said is true, why did they come to you?" Skadi asked.

Lin Ye's smile gradually faded, because he hadn't thought about this question. Since Skadi had already raised this question, he thought about it carefully, but unfortunately, he didn't come up with anything.

It really does not add up together. There is no way they got the room wrong, right? They aren't that stupid to do that.

"Why are you thinking about this so much?" Lappland curled her lips and said, "I can easily find them. Isn't that easier?"

Lin Ye thought about it. Then he shook his head at her.

"On paper, it does sound far easier. However, even though this town is not that big, tonight this town is holding a festival. It should be hard for you to track them, with how many people will be out on the street," He stated, "With that many people, you are bound to have a hard time to get their scent again."

Lappland tilted her head for a moment and it was indeed the case for her now.

Normally, she would easily rely on her sense of smell to deal with finding people that she wanted to deal with. However, today there is a Halloween festival. There are too many people on the street tonight. She can't just go on the ground and sniff them. She was not a dog. Just thinking about this, she was more willing to fight a god than do that.

Lin Ye then felt something tugging on his sleeve. He turned around to find it was Liz.

"Do we have to go back home?" Liz asked him, "Why not just enjoy this festival. They should have nothing to do with us. And Miss Skadi is with us. That means that we are safe."

"Wha-."

"Yeah!"

Before Lin Ye could understand what she just said, Ifrit raised her hand up and shouted at him

"Let's just have fun! Come on, Ye!"

Ifrit then went and tugged on his other sleeve.

"I even got a costume! I will not let some stupid group of dog to ruin my fun! I will burn them myself if they do! There is no way we are going back just like that!"

In this regard, Lin Ye also held the same view as Ifrit. It was absolutely impossible to go back now. They prepare so much to celebrate this festival. It was just that there was a mafia group roaming around the town the festival was held in.

In his previous life, Lin Ye was the kind of person that hated to get in trouble. He tried his best to not be near them at all. However, he once had to deal with someone that was bothering the popular girl that he befriends. They were harassing her too. So, Lin Ye acted as if he was her boyfriend to get him away from her.

How is she now?

All in all, Lin Ye could be said to be quite a coward. However, with how much he had to deal with so many incidents that he almost lost his life, he became a bit braver than he had ever been in his past life.

In addition, Skadi was with them. He was confident that she could deal with anything. This made him feel much safer when she was beside him.

Of course, Lin Y did not come here for the Halloween festival. His main reason for coming here was to find a cure for Liz's legs. The legendary medicine that could cure any type of bone injuries. Other than that, he would not be here in the first place.

He did not tell Liz, in hope that he did not raise her hope up too fast. After all, there was still a big chance that this medicine wouldn't help her legs.

Higher expectations, gave bigger disappointment.

If he can't cure her legs, the least he can do is to make her enjoy the festival.

He sighed and patted both of their heads.

Liz seemed to enjoy it. Ifrit seemed to be reluctant but she still let his hand on her head.

"Okay. We're staying." Lin Ye smiled at them.

Then he looked at the photo of the black-haired woman.

"Supposedly, the Mafia may go to our room by mistake. Their target is this girl and not us." Lin Ye said to them, "That means that this girl should be in danger right now."

Skadi frowned at this, "Do you want to help her?"

"If I get the chance, why shouldn't I help her?" Lin Ye asked her.

"Why? You don't even know her." Skadi asked him back.

"That... I can't just let her be." Lin Ye scratched the back of his head.

Lin Ye felt that he was a naive kid by thinking like that. He couldn't help everyone. He was not a superpower human that could save everyone at the last minute. He knew that.

But... I just want to help her. Is it wrong to help someone in front of me?

Lin Ye knew his way of thinking was not something that Skadi could understand. He was from a world where most of the world was not at war. While in Terra, killing was just a normal thing that happened in this world.

"We don't need to find her. I am not going to look around to find her. However, if we find her by coincidence, we should help her out. The Mafia is our enemy, with how they almost poison us. So, why not help her deal with them? Of course, this is just my personal opinion." Lin Ye smiled at Skadi, "You don't need to do anything if you don't want to."

Then Lin Ye stared at all of them now, "That includes everyone else too," He smiled at the rest of them, "You don't need to follow me."

After a moment of silence, Lappland said something to break the silence.

"I am really not interested in helping my people or anything like that. I don't really like them to be honest. If I can beat them down, I welcome that very much."

That is a very Lappland thing for her to say.

Lin Ye smiled at her.

Liz looked at Lin Ye and then said softly, "I have no reason to stop you, because I know that if you are not such a person, then I would still be lying on the hospital bed."

Liz's words touched Lin Ye. Even though he did nothing amazing, she still thought highly of him.

"If I can have an excuse to burn people, I am all into it." Ifrit said with her chest out.

Lin Ye smiled at this.

Three down, one more to go.

He glanced back at Skadi.

Skadi was silent for a long time, and then she slowly opened her mouth.

"It looks like you and I are different."

Lin Ye sighed at this.

Thought so.

However, she was not done talking.

"So, I want to know why that is so," Her eyes never left him as she said all of this, "You just need to tell me what to do and I will do it. That's enough for me."

This made Lin Ye's eyes widened.

Finally, his face softened and he smiled at her gratefully.
