Chapter 1004 The wonderful life of escape

She grabbed Feng Xun's sleeve tightly with one hand, almost unable to believe her ears, but Feng Xun's serious expression told her that she had heard nothing wrong just now!

"This is impossible... I have obtained some information about them on the dark web. Once I join, I will never quit for life, otherwise it will be a dead end! Little Noah had seen a corpse in the garbage dump. It was from the Rose Cross and was killed because of her defection! If she came from the Rose Cross, how could she quit halfway from this organization safely?"

Xia Chuqi really couldn't imagine how that tough short-haired woman escaped from the Rose Cross and even became the bounty hunter in the top few rankings!

"You are right. Members of the Rose Cross are indeed not allowed to withdraw for life, otherwise they will be regarded as defectors and will be hunted down by the people of this organization!"

Feng Xun nodded, put his head on her shoulder and said in a deep voice: "Little girl, if I hadn't seen the information about the Crusade and were impressed by this woman, I wouldn't have believed that she was the one who withdrew from the Crusade of the Rose Cross!"

"Are you really sure she is the one who will withdraw from the Rose Cross?" Xia Chuqi asked with a frown.

"Little girl, if I hadn't been sure about this, I wouldn't tell you..." Feng Xun looked deep in her eyes and said in a deep voice: "In fact, after I got her information, I have been sending people to find her!"

"I still can't imagine how she could survive safely until now if she became a defector..." Xia Chuqi murmured to herself, holding the cross necklace in her hand.

"Being able to become a top bounty hunter in the famous top bounty hunter is bound to have extraordinary wisdom, extraordinary abilities, and agility!"

Feng Xun said this and paused, his eyes fell back on the portrait of the woman he had hand-painted: "If I guessed right, she was so high-profile just to avoid the pursuit from the Rose Cross!"

"So is she actually as outstanding as my mother back then..." Xia Chuqi thought of Feng Xun's comments just now, and what Old Lady Bai had said before that came to her mind.

She said that her mother was also very outstanding and successfully completed many tasks, but in the end, she ended up with a tragic death...

Xia Chuqi curled a bitter smile on the corner of his lips, and subconsciously held the silver cross necklace in his hand!

"Little girl, sorry, I shouldn't mention these..." Feng Xun saw her sudden silent appearance and a gloomy look flashing across her face. He knew that she remembered her deceased mother again, hugged her in her arms, lowered her head and kissed her hair, and sighed softly.

"Nothing. You just said she was from the Crusades. I did think of my mother, whether it was the old lady white or the boss of the bloom club, Morgan, who later praised my mother for her excellence. However, no matter how outstanding she was, she was just used by them. What a sarcasm!"

"So your father's reaction was so intense that he was worried. He refused to admit that your mother knew the old lady Bai, and he was not allowed to inquire about those things!"

Feng Xun sighed lightly and comforted her: "Everything your father did is to protect you!"

Xia Chuqi nodded with a wry smile. Her father did this with great intentions, but she wanted to know the truth about the cause of her mother's death at that time, so she ignored her father's warning and insisted on finding out!

"Don't think about those unhappy things..." Feng Xun was worried that her mood would become depressed again, so he slowly let go of his hand holding her, and said softly: "After drinking the milk, go to bed early!"

Xia Chuqi responded softly, got up and brushed his teeth, lay back under the quilt, but he was not sleepy at all, his mind was full of things about the short-haired woman and the Rose Cross!

At that time, she felt that the woman had a particularly outstanding temperament, and she could almost tell that she was a trainee, so Feng Xun said that the short-haired woman was a famous bounty hunter, and she was not surprised at all.

But I didn't expect that the woman came from the Rose Cross. No wonder she had some strange tattoos with complex patterns and the knocked silver cross necklace!

When Xia Chuqi thought of this, he quickly picked up the necklace placed on the bedside table again, stretched out his fingers and stroked the cross pendant of the necklace carefully, and found that there seemed to be other patterns on it.

Feng Xun packed up his things and was about to go to the study. Seeing that she was not asleep, he came over and advised, "It's getting late. If you have anything to think about it tomorrow, go to bed!"

Xia Chuqi did not answer, but asked in a low voice: "Feng Xun, can you help me get a magnifying glass?"

Seeing that she was still studying the necklace, Feng Xun could only open the drawer of the bedside table, take out a magnifying glass and hand it to her, then sit by the bed, lowered his head and looked with her.

"We thought this was an ordinary cross before, but look, there was a rose carved behind the cross, and a rose plus a cross... It was indeed a symbol of the Rose Cross!"

Xia Chuqi raised the cross pendant, pointed to the shallow carved roses behind the cross through a magnifying glass, and explained to Feng Xun.

"It seems that she is deliberately leaving this special necklace..." Feng Xun frowned slightly, stretched out his hand and stroked the rose pattern on it, and murmured in a low voice: "She seems to be walking too fast to hit you, but in fact she did it on purpose. She wants to leave an impression on you, and this necklace is a clue she left behind!"

"Clues?" Xia Chuqi was slightly stunned and asked hesitantly: "But why did she leave me this clue? Does she... know me?"

"This may be great. Since the old lady white and the boss of the Bloom Club Morgan know you, it is not surprising that she, as a former member of the Rose Cross Legion, knows that you know you!" Feng Xun nodded slightly and said in a deep voice: "Maybe she also knows your mother!"

Xia Chuqi nodded and replied, thinking about something: "So that's the case, but she left this clue, it's better to just leave the gold coin that symbolizes identity. Maybe I will recognize her at a glance!"

"Maybe she had handed over the gold coins when she left, or maybe she was not sure. Leaving the gold coins like this was too dangerous for her!" Feng Xun could only guess this way. When he sent someone to find this woman, the news he got was that this woman was indeed very powerful, and she avoided the killer sent by the Rose Cross again and again!
