"Oh?" I couldn't help letting this expression out after hearing this.
At the sa ti, I couldn't help feeling a bit excited since this might just be the clue that I needed for my investigation.
Ronnie could see the interested look that I had, so she leaned in closer and said with a smile, "I've heard so very interesting things, so which ones do you want to know about?"
I was surprised that she would suddenly co in closer, letting get a closer view of her beauty.
When she was close to like this, I really couldn't help being taken aback by the beauty that she had.
Those crystal clear eyes that I hadn't been able to look at directly before were now sparkling like the stars in front of . There was even a glisten to her cherry red lips that really made one want to see just how they tasted.
But I held myself back and said, "Well, I definitely want to hear the most interesting one."
Ronnie gave a chuckle when she heard this and then she revealed what seed to be a naughty smile, which just made her seem even more beautiful.
Then she said in a lowered voice, "You didn't hear this from , but a little birdy has been saying that the fishmonger's wife has been going out quite a bit lately. According to that little birdy, it seems like she has been heading to the butcher's place almost every other night…if you know what I'm saying."
After she said this, the naughty smile on her face beca even wider.
As for , my chin just dropped down after I heard this, but it wasn't for the reason that you would think.
It wasn't because I had been completely shocked by this news since I didn't even know who these people were.
Rather, I had been shocked that this was the most interesting thing that she knew…
It seed that I had gotten my hopes up and in the end, I was disappointed.
It seed that I had been expecting too much out of this girl who was just a commoner, the most interesting things that she had heard were just so rumours about the people of the city.
There was no chance that she would actually have any useful information on the demons.
With a sigh, I said, "It isn't nice to gossip about people like that."
Ronnie pouted her lips and said, "You're the one that asked in the first place and you're judging !"
I revealed a bitter smile before saying, "You know that's not what I ant."
Ronnie tilted her head to look at before saying, "You're the one that told to tell you sothing interesting and this is the most interesting thing that I know."
I shook my head with that sa bitter smile on my face before saying, "Well, is there anything else interesting that you know?"
After hearing this, Ronnie revealed the sa naughty smile as before and she began telling the different rumours about this city.
All of the rumours that she told involved the people of the city in so way, but they were all gossip about their daily lives.
Such as soone gossiping about people behind their backs, soone telling soone else fake information, or other small and petty things that didn't matter.
With the way that she kept telling all of this, it seed that she was quite the talented gossiper…
She even seed like she was on the sa level as those old ladies in my past life…
But that wasn't what I wanted to hear and I was getting dizzy from her chattering in my ear like this.
So I said in the end, "Thank you for telling all of this, but I have to go now since it's getting dark."
It really was getting dark outside since I had been trapped in here all afternoon listening to Ronnie's gossip.
Ronnie revealed a disappointed look, but she also had a look of understanding on her face since she could see how dark it was outside.
But before we could leave, Ronnie suddenly asked, "Will we see each other again?"
I suddenly stopped moving and turned around to look at her, seeing a strange look on her face which made surprised.
But there was a part of that didn't want to crush this strange look, so I just simply replied, "If we're fated to et, we will et again."
Then without waiting for a response from her, I turned to leave.
At least this would be better than just leaving her with fake promises.
Even after they had left, Ronnie just sat there staring at the entrance to the cafe in a daze.
That was until the owner of the cafe ca over and asked, "Young miss, are you alright?"
That snapped Ronnie out of her daze and she narrowed her eyes to reveal a serious look. She looked at the owner of the cafe and asked, "Do you have any information on those two?"
The owner of the cafe shook his head and said, "Young miss, they were first ti custors that just ca in this afternoon. If you want, I can take the ti to get information on them."
After a mont of silence, Ronnie shook her head and said, "No, there's no need for that."
Then her expression beca dead serious as she said, "What information do you have for today?"
The owner of the cafe also revealed a serious look before heading back to the counter to bring over a packet of papers for her.
He placed them in front of her before falling to one knee and saying, "This is the information from the outskirts of the city this afternoon. There's a few strange things that we've noted that we need your help with."
Ronnie looked up one last ti at the door before giving a sigh and picking up the top piece of paper on this pile.
As she looked at it, she muttered to herself, "If we're fated, huh?"
