The next day.
Dudian came to the tailor shop and received the robe and mask.
He put on the robe and it was just the right size.
He put on the mask and came to the alley of Wall Street Road.
He immediately smelled the smell of two people inside, which was better than yesterday.
One person is missing.
"Sure enough, we are here every day."
Du Di'an said secretly.
He entered the alley and put on a mask.
He stretched out his hand to pull up the cloth that was painted like a wall.
He saw that there were piles of bricks inside.
If an ordinary person accidentally noticed the cloth, , even if you open it, you will only see this wall, but Dudian knows that there is a secret room inside, so he can see the gaps between the bricks at a glance.
Dudian picked up a stone and knocked it twice.
There was no reaction inside.
Dudian tapped twice again.
At this time, Dudian smelled the scent of two people inside and came closer, right behind the brick.
He waited for a moment, but didn't see them making any sound.
He immediately knocked twice, controlled his throat and lowered his voice: "I am your companion, and I have no ill intentions.
I am also an alchemist, seeking an organization."
The two people behind the bricks seemed to be thinking about it.
After a while, there was still no response.
Dudian suddenly smelled a strange smell.
He frowned slightly and slowly pulled out a brick.
Whoosh As soon as the brick was pulled out, something shot out from the gap.
Dudian was prepared and evaded in time, but after the thing landed on the ground, it splashed out, and a few drops fell on the edge of his robe.
The dyed black robe was corroded until it turned white, and it turned out to be sulfuric acid.
Dudian glanced at it, then turned back to the bricks and continued: "I really have no ill intentions.
If you were from the Holy See of Light, I would have informed the Bright Knights to arrest you.
I am your companion."
The two people inside didn't seem to expect that their sneak attack was ineffective.
After hearing Du Di'an's words, they also knew that the initiative was in Du Di'an's hands at the moment.
If they informed the Holy See of Light, they would soon be surrounded and suppressed.
"How can I trust you?"
A female voice came from inside.
Dudian asked: "How can you trust me?"
There was a little silence inside, and the female voice said: "Please show me the alchemy tattoo."
Dudian smiled bitterly and said: "Then you have to let me in first.
It's too unsafe here, and if you stay for a long time, it will easily attract attention."
Hearing this, the two people inside seemed to think it was reasonable, and slowly pulled out the bricks.
The light inside was dim, but Dudian's vision was not affected at all.
At a glance, he saw the appearance of these two people, both wearing masks.
Judging from their stature, they were children about the same age as himself, one boy and one girl.
The boy he had tracked earlier was not there.
At this moment, the girl was responsible for pulling away the bricks, while the boy was hiding in a darker place, holding a glass bottle in his hand, with half a bottle of sulfuric acid still inside.
"Come in," the girl said.

Dudian nodded and jumped in.
There was a staircase under the bricks, and the place sealed by the bricks was like a ventilation window.
A pair of vigilant eyes appeared in the boy's mask, staring at Dudian closely, and said: "Now you can show me your alchemy tattoo."
Dudian nodded slightly, lifted up his black robe, revealing the black cross tattoo on his chest, and said, "Can you see clearly?"
The girl took a closer look and said, "He is indeed one of ours, come with me."
Hearing this, the boy breathed a sigh of relief, called to Dudian, and followed the girl.
Dudian followed them down the stairs to a secret room at the bottom.
He saw that the secret room was extremely spacious and contained many shelves with various mineral powders or metal powders on them.
There were no animal remains or eyeballs.
As for the biological parts, as he expected, they all belong to the "Philosopher's Stone" faction, with the goal of refining this magical stone.
"Please come here."
The girl came to a table and said.
Dudian followed suit.
"I want to see your tattoo again."
The girl said.
Obviously, the dim light in the corridor did not allow her to see it clearly.
Dudian nodded, revealing the black cross on his chest.
The girl and boy came closer and took a closer look, confirming that it was a black alchemy tattoo.
She suddenly approached Dudian's chest and sniffed it gently.
The warm breath exhaled from her nose made Dudian's chest throb slightly.
"The smell of perfume."
The girl was a little confused.
She smelled the robe on Dudian's arm again.
She couldn't help but look up at Dudian and said, "You are a boy, how can you put on perfume?"
Dudian coughed dryly and said, "I'm used to it."
The girl gave him a strange look, but said nothing, and said: "How did you find us?
We should be very secretive here, and the secret codes are only known by our internal staff.
Even if you are an alchemist, Wouldn’t recognize it.”
Dudian said truthfully: "I saw a man in the market with a hook tattoo on his wrist, and then followed him and found him."
The girl and boy looked at each other and couldn't help but said angrily: "This stupid mouse has told him a long time ago that getting a tattoo on such a conspicuous part of the wrist is simply asking for death.
I don't know what his teacher taught him in the first place."
The boy who was walking with his parents on a certain street suddenly sneezed twice in a row and looked confused.
Du Di'an said sincerely: "Can I join you to do research together?"
The girl looked at him and said, "Don't you have your own circle?
Didn't your teacher teach you that our circle rarely accepts other strangers?"
"My teacher is dead."
Du Di'an said with a sad expression: "Several colleagues who did research together have also dispersed."
The girl was stunned for a moment and whispered: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to do it."
Dudian shook his head slightly and said, "It's all over."
The girl thought for a while and said: "Okay, if you are alone, I can let you join, but you are absolutely not allowed to bring outsiders in.
You also know that the more people there are, the easier it is to be exposed."
Dudian's face was full of surprise and he said: "I will keep it strictly confidential."
"Yes."
The girl nodded, with a smile on her face, and said, "My name is Nightingale, his name is Viper, and Mouse went shopping with his parents today and didn't come over.
If you want to join us, you need a code name."

Dudian couldn't help but wonder, "Isn't the code name only given when joining the Dark Holy See?"
"Yes, that is the official code name, and it is also the status symbol of us alchemists."
Nightingale nodded: "But we also need to have a code name to call each other.
It is impossible to use real names.
If anyone is arrested, we will What should I do if other people are exposed?
Did you use your real name in your previous circles?"
Dudian continued: "No, they are all replaced by one of the characters in everyone's name."
"That can be regarded as a code name."
Nightingale said: "We use an animal instead.
Think about it."
Dudian thought for a moment and said, "Just call it hound."
"Hound" Nightingale nodded and said, "Okay, I'll call you Hound from now on."
Dudian nodded, looked around and said, "Don't you have a teacher to teach you?"
Nightingale shook her head and said, "My teacher will not come to a place where apprentice alchemists like us are.
He is busy with his own experiments."
The boy named Viper smiled at Dudian and said, "Nightingale is our teacher.
She is about to achieve the Meteor Star Badge.
She will be the youngest one-star alchemist by then.
Isn't she awesome?"
Du Dian looked at the girl in surprise.
From the moment he came in, he felt that this girl had more say.
Sure enough, she was the leader in this small circle.
He said: "That's really amazing.
I have only been in contact for a short time, and I still have to talk to you a lot."
Studying.”
The voice under Nightingale's mask was a little shy, and said: "It's not as exaggerated as what he said.
There are too many smart people, and I am not the youngest."
"Anyway, I think you are very powerful."
Viper said with a playful smile.
Dudian looked at him and thought that this person's character had nothing to do with Viper.
This code name was really a bit of a split personality.
"Okay, it's time to get busy with the experiment.
Do you still want to get the meteor badge?"
Nightingale waved.
The viper laughed playfully, went to another room next to it, and closed the door.
Nightingale said to Dudian: "We have limited rooms here, and there is a grocery room left next to it.
You can use that one for cleaning.
If you don't understand anything, you can always communicate with me
